◇ Hokkaido Nippon-Ham vs. Saitama Seibu Lions Open Game (4th, ES CON FIELD)

​Yuta Nakasan of Saitama Seibu Lions marked 3 hit.

He started the game as "No.5 DH". First of all, in the 2nd inning, he took the first at bat as the first hitter of the inning, and hit hit from full count between 1st and 2nd base. Then, in the top of the 6th inning, he again hit hit to right in his third at bat. In the top of the 8th inning, he recorded a hit to left field, making his presence felt with multiple hit hits in two consecutive games.

Last season, Nakazo made his first promotion to the first team and marked his first hit and first RBI as a professional. Will he be able to continue his appeal from the opening game this season and start the season with the first team?
