Takasugi Excels in Fukuoka SoftBank Win
Fukuoka SoftBank center fielder Satomi Takasugi was a significant contributor in his team's 8-4 triumph over the ORIX Buffaloes. He was 3-4 with a home run, a triple, a double, and a walk. He drove in 6 runs and scored once for Fukuoka SoftBank. Soh Arakaki got the win, improving to 3-2. He pitched 5 innings, giving up 4 hits and 3 runs, while striking out 5 and walking 4. The Hawks now have a record of 19-22.

Takasugi had an important at-bat with the bases loaded in the top of the eighth, when he drew a walk, driving in 1 run. The Hawks went on to win.

"We believe in ourselves and we're willing to work hard. It's a good combination," Takasugi told the Fukuoka SoftBank Times.
