◆2025 Persol Climax Series first baseman First Stage Game 1 Nippon-Ham vs. Orix (11th, Escon F)
The starting starting line-up for the first game of the first stage of the Climax Series has been announced. As predicted by manager Tsuyoshi Shinjo at the press conference the day before, Nippon-Ham has appointed Kotaro Kiyomiya as the fourth batter. Attention is focused on whether he can live up to the expectations of “about five hit in four At Bat.”
Orix batting line-up has faced Nippon-Ham starter Ito four times this season during the regular season. He’s a tough opponent with one win and three losses and a 2.00 ERA against them, but Ota and Nakagawa, who have batting averages of .462 against them, Mune, who has .500, and Nishino, who has .600, will be hoping to break through.
