Rakuten Eagles manager Masato Yoshii will inspect the Miyazaki Phoenix League.
The season ended the previous day on the 5th. While the first-team main players will be given about two weeks of rest, the young players and farm team members will participate in the '23rd Miyazaki Phoenix League' starting on the 7th. Although the season has just concluded, Manager Yoshii revealed, 'I will be going to Miyazaki starting from the 6th.'
This will be a valuable opportunity for actual game experience before the off-season. The manager demanded, "Those who still need to prove themselves in real games must continue to work hard."
This season ended with 58 wins, 84 losses, and 1 draw, finishing 26 games below .500 and sinking to the bottom of the standings for the first time in eight years. The growth of young players is essential for a comeback. The team aims to make this a productive autumn and carry that momentum into next season.
