Manabu Mima allowed two runs in eight innings as the Pacific League-leading Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles buried the Seibu Lions 10-2 on Saturday afternoon.
Mima (4-0) allowed four hits, while striking out four and walking none. Both of the runs scored against him came on Shuta Tonosaki solo homers.
Lions starter Ryoma Nogami (2-4) was hit hard in the first inning, when six straight batters reached base after he got the first out. Back-to-back doubles by Carlos Peguero and Hiroaki Shimauchi on poorly located pitches by Nogami made it 1-0.
