Fukuoka SoftBank Befuddled by Fujimoto
Tohoku Rakuten pitcher Noriyuki Fujimoto gave the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks fits today as he blanked them 16-0 on 6 hits. He registered 11 strikeouts and 1 walk in the shutout.

"When he's locating his pitches, he becomes unpredictable," Golden Eagles manager Gabriel McKinnes said. "He had Fukuoka SoftBank guessing the entire game."
