◆ Pacific League Orix-Rakuten (27th and Kyocera Dome Osaka)
Orix Shumpeita Yamashita pitcher hit runs strike out He pitched 7 2/3 innings with 1 runs and 8 strike out in his first start in 8 days, the shortest interval of the season since his start against Seibu (Belluna Dome) on the 18th. He finished the first inning by striking out three batters without any problems.
In the second inning, he gave up a doble to right field to lead off the inning and put runners on second and third with two outs. However, Ota was hit by a pitch struck out and got out of the inning with no outs runs.
３、４回はいずれも３人で攻撃を終了。５回は１死から同学年・宗山に右越え二塁打を許したが、村林、小郷から連続三振を奪った。
He continued pitch safely from the sixth inning onward, right after receiving two runs of support. He toyed with hitter with a combination of a 158 km/h fastball, a curveball, and a fork, and handed mound over to second-string pitcher Iwasaki from the eighth inning. Overcoming the poor condition of his back due to his growth process, he made great strides toward his first win in 388 days, since the game Seibu on September 4th of last year (at Belluna Dome).
