Daisuke Matsuzaka may have been shaky, giving up four runs over 5 1/3 innings Wednesday, but he still bagged his 12th win of the season as the Seibu Lions rolled over Narciso Elvira and the Kintetsu Buffaloes 8-4 at the Seibu Dome.
Matsuzaka (12-5) struck out four and walked four as he struggled for the win, but was bolstered by the Lions' six-run second inning as Seibu remained on the heels of the Daiei Hawks in the Pacific League pennant race.
Hawks 7, BlueWave 4
