Muramatsu Goes Off, But Hawks Win
Munenao Muramatsu had a good game, but he could not keep the ORIX Buffaloes from falling, 9-7, to the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks at Ballpark of Aomori College. The ORIX right fielder was 2-3 with 2 home runs and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice in the loss. Soichi Sato locked down his 2nd save. Fukuoka SoftBank has a mark of 4-4 after the win.

Akira Otake put Fukuoka SoftBank in front, 3-0, when he took Yoshiyuki Kikuchi downtown. His 2-run home run came with one out in the bottom of the third. It was his 2nd home run of the season.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Otake.
