Miyagawa Excels, But Buffaloes Win
The Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles got a superb performance from right fielder Hajimu Miyagawa, but the ORIX Buffaloes still won the game, 11-9. Miyagawa was named the player of the game despite the loss. He hit 2 home runs, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4. Mitsumori Yamaguchi sewed up the save, his 1st. Losses have been few and far between for the Golden Eagles so far this season. Their record drops to 2-1.

In the top of the first, Dong-u Chung ambushed a 1-0 slider from Chong-hun Huh and hit a 2-run home run. It gave ORIX a quick 2-0 lead.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Chung. "And not try to do too much."
