Fighters Trounce Golden Eagles, 10-3
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

Hokkaido Nippon-Ham center fielder Tom Timmis was a significant contributor in his team's 10-3 triumph over the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles. He was 2-2 with a home run and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for Hokkaido Nippon-Ham. Hajime Sakai got the win, improving to 3-0. He worked 8.2 innings, giving up 3 runs on 10 hits, while striking out 8 and walking 2.

The Fighters got an important contribution from left fielder Feng-yi Mai, who in the top of the second punched a 1-0 forkball into left-center for a bases-clearing double. It was his 7th double of the season and put the Fighters ahead, 3-0.

In comments to the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Herald, Mai admitted that he doesn't always push himself. "But the results," he said, "speak for themselves."

The losing streak for Tohoku Rakuten has now reached 5 games.
