Kanda Leads Buffaloes to Win over Fighters
The ORIX Buffaloes defeated the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters, 6-3, in Pacific League action at Ballpark of Hakui College, with ORIX right fielder Tsugio (Jiro) Kanda named player of the game. Mitsumori Yamaguchi sewed up the save, his 3rd. Even with the win, the Buffaloes have a dismal 4-10 record.

It could have been a different outcome for ORIX, had it not been for Ryoji Hayashi, the 23-year old center fielder . Hayashi contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the eighth inning to put ORIX up, 4-2.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Kanda told the ORIX Bulletin.
