Hawks Walk Off with 8-5 Win
Behind a solid performance from pinch hitter Ieyoshi Blagg, the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks defeated the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters, 8-5. Blagg went 1 for 1 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Hawks. Fukuoka SoftBank reliever Toshinori Takamiya was the winner. His record is now 1-0. Mitsuya Ikuta took the loss. The Hawks are off to a tough start, getting just their 3rd win in 8 games.

Late-game drama came in the bottom of the tenth inning. With two out and runners on 1st and 2nd, the batter, Ieyoshi Blagg, hit a walk-off 3-run home run. It helped Fukuoka SoftBank seize the win.

"We'll grab a cold one tonight and go after another win tomorrow," Blagg said.
