On the 13th, Lotte announced that the game against Softbank (ZOZO) was cancelled due to rain. This was the second time this season that a game was cancelled due to rain, following the game against Orix (same venue) on the 1st.

The team's pitching and batting were lackluster in the game against Softbank Hawks on the 12th (same venue), resulting in a complete defeat of 0-8. This is the second time this season that the team has lost three games in a row, putting them two behind. Manager Yoshii said, "It's a shame because it was a Sunday and I'm sure the fans were looking forward to it, but I guess there's nothing we can do about the weather. Since we're on a losing streak, we'll need to switch gears today and tomorrow, and then we'll try our best to turn the tide and get some wins starting on Tuesday," as he looked ahead to the game against Nippon-Ham Fighters on the 15th (ZOZO).
