Darvish Ks 13 to give Fighters 1-0 lead in Japan Series
2007-10-27 07:37
by Bob Timmermann

Nippon Ham southpaw Yu Darvish struck out 13 Chunichi Dragons hitters as his team took a 1-0 lead in Japan Series with a 3-1 win at the Sapporo Dome.

All of Nippon Ham's runs came on a 3-run homer by designated hitter Fernando Seguignol in the first inning off of loser Kenshin Kawakami.

Game 2 will be Sunday night in Sapporo.

Obligatory boxscore.

An English language boxscore reveals the Fighters meager, yet sufficient offensive attack.

I don't know if that would translate.

If his arm holds up, Darvish will very popular with MLB. There's something about hard throwing lefties that appeals to scouts.

They were serving free samples of Yakult at Ralph's in Westwood yesterday. Just thought you should know. (Also, they weren't generating much interest.)

Bob, what crack are you smoking? Darvish isn't left-handed.
