Tokyo, April 15 (Prensa Latina) Cuban Yurisbel Gracial counted three hits in four opportunities, plus a run scored, to contribute to the success of his team SoftBank Falcons, 4-3 against the Orix Buffaloes.

The outstanding performance with the bat allowed him to raise his average to 323, in a game where another Cuban, Alfredo Despaigne, also from Cuba, failed three times at bat, one of them by way of a strikeout, while another Cuban, Livan Moinelo, got the save. Ariel Martinez, also from Cuba, homered twice in his four at-bats in his team's 1-5 loss to the Yomiuri Giants, where he had the opportunity to score the only run for the Chunichi Dragons.
