Golden Eagles Squelch Buffaloes Offense in Shutout Win
Tohoku Rakuten right-hander Geoff Willoughby pitched his team to a shutout win, 5-0, over the ORIX Buffaloes. Tohoku Rakuten now has a 3-game win streak.

Tohoku Rakuten first baseman Kunimichi Nakai delivered a solo home run in the bottom of the third. Overall, he went 3 for 5, including 1 home run, 1 single, and 1 double. He scored 1 run and batted in 2.

"This isn't football or hockey where you can overwhelm your opponents," Willoughby told the Tohoku Rakuten News. "Everyone gets 27 outs and we happened to make the most of them."
