Daiei catcher Kenji Jojima slammed a go-ahead, three-run homer off Nippon Ham closer Carlos Mirabal in the eighth inning as the Fukuoka Daiei Hawks beat the Fighters 11-6 at the Tokyo Dome for the second straight night Tuesday. Trailing 6-3 in the eighth, the Hawks' Tadahito Iguchi drilled a two-run homer before Jojima hit his 15th clout of the year to put the Hawks ahead.

Daiei added three more runs in the ninth on a home run by Hiroki Kokubo.
