Hideaki Wakui threw his fourth complete game of the season as the Saitama Seibu Lions rallied past the Orix Buffaloes 7-3 on Friday.
Wakui (10-3) became the first pitcher in Japanese baseball to reach double-digit wins this season. He struck out nine, allowed seven hits and walked two in winning his fifth straight start.
Hiroyuki Nakajima hit a three-run homer to put the Lions ahead 4-2 in the third inning before Dee Brown followed with a shot of his own, both off Shogo Yamamoto (6-4), at Seibu Dome.
