Tokyo Yakult Swallows starter Bobby Luther was in fine form against the Hanshin Tigers at Rebels Ballpark, leading his team to a 2-1 win. Tokyo Yakult, now 5-3, has played well in the early going.

Willie Castaneda was 1 for 3 for Tokyo Yakult. The 23-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Tsutomu Yoshida. It was his 2nd RBI of the season.

Luther told a Tokyo Yakult Herald reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
