The manager of the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks, Kimiyasu Kudo, marked his 400th winning at a game against Lotte Marines on July 24. Having led the team for five years by now, Kudo delivered four-hundred winnings within 664 games, which is the third-earliest achievement in Japanese baseball. The manager commented gratefully that the victories have been brought by everyone, rather than by himself. Source: Nikkan Sports News, 7/25/2019
