◆2025 Persol Climax Series Pacific Final Stage Game 1 Softbank Nippon-Ham (15th, Mizuho PayPay Dome)
With one out in the eighth inning and trailing by one run, Nippon-Ham Ham outfielder hit a 155 km/h fastball thrown by Matsumoto, who came on to pitch in the inning, into the stands in right-center field.
The batting line was silenced by Softbank ‘s starter, Moinelo. To defeat their arch-rival, who had been struggling with a 1-4 record this season, manager Tsuyoshi Shinjo devised a strategy to counter this by starting Yuma Imagawa, who was registered that day, as the 5th batter and left fielder, and Yuya Shindo who has played in 13 games this season, as the 8th batter and catcher. The manager said, “We have a strategy that can shut down about four different patterns,” but the team was scoreless until the 7th inning. Even so, they managed to catch up by defeating setup man Matsumoto.
