Stars Beat Bulls, 7-0 | Nagasaki Stars starter Tatsuki Goto hurled his team past the Kobe Bulls, 7-0. Nagasaki, at 39-34, sits in third place in the Western League.
Kenji Okazaki had a big 2-run double for the Stars in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Nagasaki leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from Kiyomitsu Wada, who finished 5th in the WL in saves with 13 last year, and swatted a double to left. It was his 2nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Stars ahead, 3-0.
"It was a solid team effort," said Okazaki after the game. | |
