The Hiroshima Lightning are getting outscored by 42.3 points per game this season. Which means that a 58-36 halftime deficit on Sunday is only a minor snapshot of their woes.
As expected, things fell part for Hiroshima in the second half against the visiting Oita Ehime HeatDevils.
The HeatDevils put 44 points on the board in the third quarter and allowed 14 in that frenzied 10-minute span.
