Yana has 3 hit night, Marines Move to 2-0
The Chiba Lotte Marines grabbed a 15-5 win over the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks at Ballpark of Nasu College. Chiba Lotte designated hitter Ryotaro Yana was 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 doubles, and 2 walks. He scored 4 times and drove in 3 to earn player of the game honors. The Marines, now 2-0, have been on a roll in the early going.

An important at-bat for the Marines came in the bottom of the first, when left fielder Ik-yeong Yune stroked a 2-run single. That made the score 3-2 in favor of Chiba Lotte. For the day, Yune went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once.

"We're all about heart and hustle on this team. That's what wins ballgames," Yana told the Chiba Lotte Daily News.
