NPB Pacific League: Hawks 7 vs 0 Marines

Livan Moinelo put on a absolute pitching clinic on August 25th, delivering his first complete game shutout of the season to carry the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks past the Chiba Lotte Marines and claim his 3rd victory. The ace left-hander went the full nine innings on 115 pitches, scattering just three hits while striking out nine batters. Moinelo never let the Marines establish a rhythm, keeping them off the scoreboard entirely and lowering his astonishing season ERA to a mind-boggling 0.43. It was a masterclass in rotation dominance that solidified Moinelo’s stance as one of the most unhittable starting pitchers in all of NPB.
