Lotte's starting boss

Lotte’s Austin Boss pitcher will start his first game after the ball game against Nippon-Ham on the 26th (ESCON).

In his first year with the Mariners, he started the season in the starting rotation and went 2-5 in 15 games, ERA 3.59. In his last appearance before the ballgame, Softbank against Mizuho Peipay, he suffered his fifth loss in four innings, 7 hit 5 runs and was removed from the roster on March 16. He has continued to make adjustments at the farm.

In four games against Nippon-Ham he has one win and zero ERA 1.67. “I’m really looking forward to being the starter in my first start of the second half of the season. I just need to concentrate on my pitching. We’ve played against The Fighters quite a lot, and I think hitter will be coming up with countermeasures based on their characteristics and tendencies. I haven’t been in good form recently, but I want to pitch well and contribute to the team so I can get back to the feeling I had when I was pitching well at the start of the first half of the season. It’s been a while, but I’ve made some good adjustments and I’m all set,” he said, showing confidence in his third win since the Nippon-Ham game on April 25 (ESCON).
