Red-Hot Roman Scorches Marines
The ORIX Buffaloes stopped the Chiba Lotte Marines by a score of 13-12 at Ballpark of Nasu College today, with the lion's share of the credit going to shortstop Alex Roman. The 20-year-old had a career day, collecting 5 hits.

"Every batter wants to have a quality at-bat every time he steps up to the plate," Roman said later. "He wants to hit the ball hard."

Roman did just that in his 7 at-bats, much to the chagrin of the Marines.

"Not much that I can say," offered Chiba Lotte manager Mark Connor. "He just hammered the heck out of us."

Alex Roman singled in the 2nd, flied out in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Rob Quada in the 6th, flied out in the 8th, singled in the 10th and doubled in the 11th.

A look at his current stats shows Roman with a .269 average, 6 home runs, 21 RBIs and 34 runs scored. He has played in 54 games.
