Rick van den Hurk just knows how to win under the bright lights.
The Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks' Dutch right-hander proved it again on Wednesday night at MetLife Dome, when he helped lead the Hawks to a 10-4 victory over the Pacific League champion Seibu Lions in Game 1 of the Pacific League Climax Series Final Stage.
The victory ran Van den Hurk's postseason record with SoftBank to 4-0 since he arrived in Japan in 2015.
