◇Tohoku Rakuten Eagles vs. Chiba Lotte Marines Open Match (5th, Shizuoka Kusanagi Stadium)

Tohoku Rakuten Eagles 's Kosei Shoji pitcher pitched 5 innings with 1 runs.

Shoji pitcher, who came up to the starting mound, started the first inning with a three-way closer. In the top of the 3rd inning, he scored 1 run with 3 consecutive hits, but he got through with at least runs. In the top of the 5th inning, he was in a pinch again with 2 outs on 1st and 2nd base with 2 infield hit, but Soto took a swing struck out.

The result was 5 times 6 hit 1 Walk 4 strike out 1 runs. I want to make a solid appeal to the opening rotation and the next appearance to the opening pitcher.
