◆ Pacific League Nippon-Ham 9-0 Lotte (31st, ES CON FIELD)

Lotte was unable to overcome Nippon-Ham starting left-handed pitcher Haruki Hosono (24), and was no hitter. This is the first time the team has been no-hit since June 7, 2024, when they were no-hit by Daichi Osera of Hiroshima. The team lost the first game of the series and is now down two games, eliminating their winning record.

In the first inning, Takabe led off the inning with a Walk single, but Fujiwara hit a double play ball. In the second inning, Kimura, the starting right fielder, gave up 7 runs and the game was in trouble.

In the 4th inning, Fujiwara Hit by Pitch from 1 out. He also scored two steals and made it 2 outs and 2 bases, but Polanco fell to a struck out swing. After that, he was unable to catch Hosono and tasted humiliation for the first time in about two years. From the Seibu Lions match (ZOZO) on the 29th, they lost two consecutive shutout games. It is a place where the motivation of the batting line is awaited.
