Pacific League: Orix 4-6 Lotte (25th, Kyocera Dome Osaka)

Orix lost to Lotte, ending their four-game winning streak. Soya overcame an accident in which he was hit directly in the chest by a broken bat and started after a 10-day break. However, he was unable to hold on, giving up eight hit and four runs in three innings, resulting in his seventh loss. “I couldn’t fulfill my role as a starter, and I feel nothing but sorry for the team,” he said with a sigh.

Since his career-high eighth win against Nippon-Ham on July 11th (ES CON FIELD), he has not won a single game in six straight games. Considering the team has seven games remaining, it is looking difficult for him to achieve his first double-digit win total.

The batting line-up, trailing by six runs, scored one run in the ninth inning, and Mori hit his first home run of the season, a three-run shot, in his 184th at-bat. left-handed hitter, who had been hitless in 26 at-bats up until that point, showed his determination by Home Run for the 12th consecutive year. However, the team’s counterattack was not enough after that.
