Softbank Hawks pitcher Naoyuki Uwasawa runs in the second inning.

He was hit by a doble over the middle by the leading cabbage and was in a pinch with no outs on second base. He finished off Nakayama with a struck out swing, but Dalbec bounced a fastball to the right front and Cabbage survived. The follow-up hit and closer to a minimum of runs.

The ball that was hit was right down the middle, but pitch continued to show that he was in good shape, with the sharpness of breaking ball.
