Kenya Wakatsuki unloaded the bases with one swing, powering the Orix Buffaloes to a 6-4 win over the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks on Sunday afternoon.
With two outs in the top of the fourth inning at Yafuoku Dome after Ryo Nishimura's bases-loaded single tied the game 2-2, Wakatsuki drove a high 1-1 breaking ball to the wall in right to make it a 5-2 game.
Orix lefty Takahiro Matsuba (1-0) surrendered Seiji Uebayashi's 16th home run to lead off the first inning, but Masataka Yoshida belted his 17th to tie it against Shota Takeda (3-8) in the top of the second. Unfortunately for the Buffaloes, Nobuhiro Matsuda put the Hawks in front in the bottom of the inning with his 20th of the season.
