Golden Eagles Clip Lions in Tight Contest
The Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles defeated the Saitama Seibu Lions, 10-8, in Pacific League action at Sailboats Ballpark, with Tohoku Rakuten designated hitter Willie Gonzales named player of the game. Masanori Hayashi was credited with the save for Tohoku Rakuten, his 9th of the season. Tohoku Rakuten has now won 3 in a row.

There were several reasons the Golden Eagles beat the Lions, but one factor was Hideo Kaku. In the bottom of the eighth, the Tohoku Rakuten pinch hitter came to bat and hit a 2-run double. It staked his team to a 9-8 lead.

"It feels good to get this one," Gonzales told the Tohoku Rakuten Chronicle.
