Arakaki Baffles Sapporo Batters | Goose eggs were the order of the day for the Sapporo Bears as starter Morihiro Arakaki shut them out, 8-0, at Rakisuta Stadium. The Rakisuta pitcher struck out 6 and walked 0 while allowing 3 hits.
"Arakaki was good but he wasn't flawless," Sapporo manager Kenjiro Hirata said. "We had a few opportunities to make something happen and we didn't do it. Not to take anything away from Rakisuta, but this is on us."
Thus far this season, Arakaki has tossed 88.2 innings in 13 starts, fanned 75 batters, walked 20 and put up a 2.33 ERA with 5 wins and 5 losses. | |
