Kisaku Arita Blanks Denki, 3-0
It wasn't easy but the Rakisuta Rams made it look that way.

Starter Kisaku Arita shut out the Denki Dynamics despite having what he later called "sub-par" stuff, and the Rakisuta Rams cruised to victory, 3-0. Arita allowed only 4 hits and rang up 8 strikeouts but insisted later that he did not deserve primary credit for the win.

"It didn't feel quite right today, but I got a lot of help to get through," he said. "I trusted my catcher and the guys behind me bailed me out more than once when I screwed up."

To date this year, in 21 starts, Arita has crafted a 12-5 mark with a 3.22 ERA.
