Hisashi Iwakuma rides mammoth offensive output to easy win

Hisashi Iwakuma (SP - FA)

With the Mariners' scoring 16 runs off an ineffective James Shields on Tuesday, Iwakuma needed to do little more than throw the ball over the plate and let San Diego hit themselves out. He allowed 4 earned runs on 3 home runs, but all came late in the game after the outcome was decided.

Fantasy Impact
Iwakuma was perfect thru the first 4 innings, and by the time San Diego started scoring, they were already 16 runs in the hole. Iwakuma has not looked as sharp as we have seen him this season, but has been the beneficiary of decent run support on a number of occasions.
