Saitama Seibu ‘s pitcher Yutaro Watanabe, will start after a 10-day break. Although he did not pitch well in his last appearance, he has achieved HQS in two consecutive games. On the other hand, in the batting lineup, Seiya Watanabe showed his skills by hitting 6 hit in 11 At Bat-bats in the three-game series Orix at the end of April. We are looking forward to this game as well from this rookie, who is becoming more and more prominent, including hitting his first professional Home Run in the previous card.
Orix ‘s starting pitcher Espinoza. He has pitched in two games against Saitama Seibu this season, giving up five runs in 10 inning but allowing 17 hit. The team has had a strong start to the season, but has now lost more games than it has won, dropping them to the top of the league. They are now 0 games behind the third-place Saitama Seibu. Can they regain their form and take back the lead?
