◆Pacific Pacific League: Seibu vs. Nippon-Ham (29th, Belluna Dome)

Nippon-Ham Fighters catcher Yuya Gunji responded to his first start of the season with a powerful hit at starting line-up. In the fourth inning, with one out and runners on second and third, he hit a powerful ball that even veteran pitcher Genda dropped. "I went up to bat with the mindset that, 'Even though my nose is stuffy (due to hay fever), my batting skills won't be stuffy,'" he said, looking back with a humorous comment.
