On the 2nd, Fuji TV ONE's "Professional baseball News 2025" broadcast, Takagi Yutaka pointed out, "In the early spring, the pattern was Nishikawa hitting and Watanabe returning the ball, but these are the results. Today was not very good either."

Regarding the situation of both players, Tomotaka Sakaguchi analyzed, "They are the two who have been leading the team. They are bound to get tired, and the home stadium, the Dome, is hot," and encouraged them, saying, "I think these two are players who absolutely need to play and get back into shape. I want them to try various things." Takagi also said, "This is where Seibu needs to hang in there. These two need to lead the team."
