Pacific League: Orix 7x-6 Seibu = 12 extra inning (17th, Kyocera Dome)
On the 17th, it became more likely that Orix Hiroya Miyagi pitcher Daiya Miyagi (23) would return to the game against Nippon-Ham on the 21st (ESCON). He was removed from the player registration list on the 8th due to poor condition of his lower body, and recovery and adjustments were given priority. It is now expected that he will be able to return to the first-team mound as soon as possible.
The team overcame a six-run deficit in their game against Seibu (Kyocera Dome) that day, win walk-off. Following mainstay Nishikawa’s return in a second-division game on the 16th, the ace is also scheduled to return to the lineup. He rejoined the first-division team on the 13th and began pitch practice in bullpen. This season, he has not been blessed with many wins, with a record of 4 wins and 3 losses and an ERA of 2.55 in 17 games, but he has always had a fighting image, saying, “I want to get back (to the first division) as soon as possible.”
The three-game series Nippon-Ham starting on the 19th will be led by rookie pitcher Naruki Teranishi (22), who inherited Miyagi’s number from last year. Left-handed pitcher Kazuma Sato (24), born in 2001 like Miyagi and joining the first team for the first time this season, will take on the second game on the 20th. While the second-place Nippon-Ham are a long way off, they only need to win one game to move up. The “U-25 Trio” will create a momentum for a major counterattack.
