CS Fuji TV ONE's "Pro baseball News" broadcast on the 27th picked up the Rakuten attack in the top of the third inning. Motonobu Tanishige, who served as the MC, said, "It's a base running in the third inning, but Ota second baseman grounded out to second and third base with no outs. Now Tatsumi at third base runner is stopped..."

Igarashi Ryota, a commentator who appeared on the program, commented, "This was a situation where he had to go. runner on second base had also started his run with that intention. I don't know why he hesitated, though."

Tanishiro said, "One reason may be that it was a bit of line drive, close to pitcher...", and commentator Kataoka Atsushi commented, "It may have looked like line drive to pitcher, but I think Tatsumi has the speed to get back to home plate from there.The game ended up with a big difference, but I think this play was very important."
