Nippon-Ham vs. Rakuten (14:00, ES CON FIELD) Nippon-Ham = Yi-Lei Sun, Rakuten = Howard

The second-place Nippon-Ham suffered a painful loss to the Lotte Marines on the 22nd. They will face Rakuten at home on the 23rd. Miyanishi has now made 899 appearances since his relief appearance against Seibu (Sapporo Dome) on March 25, 2008. If he reaches 900 appearances, he will become just the fourth player in history to do so. The previous three players are as follows:

Number of appearances Pitcher (affiliation)

1002 Hitoki Iwase (Chunichi)

949 Tetsuya Yoneda (Hankyu-Hanshin Tigers-Kintetsu)

944 Masaichi Kaneda (Japan National Railways -The Giants)

With the 40-year-old veteran left-hander making a milestone appearance, will Nippon-Ham be able to keep their hopes of a comeback victory alive with another win?
