Hawks Get Win, Hope to Turn Around Slow Start
Fukuoka SoftBank rode a fine outing from starter Soh Arakaki to victory over the Saitama Seibu Lions at Field of the Chariots. The final score was 6-1. Kiyooki Takashima closed it out for his 1st save. Fukuoka SoftBank is now 5-9, Saitama Seibu 9-5.

Fukuoka SoftBank used the bat of Fumiki Okuda to get the win. The third baseman hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the third inning to put the Hawks ahead, 5-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"I just trusted my stuff," said Arakaki.
