An exhibition game between the Tokyo Yakult and Orix Buffaloes will be held at Jingu Stadium on March 14th at 3 PM.
Kotaro Kobayashi has been struggling at the plate in the preseason games, batting only .100, and even his usually reliable defense made an error in the game against Chiba Lotte Marines on the 10th. However, he showed signs of recovery in the game on the 13th, hitting doble down the left field line. Can he regain his form both offensively and defensively and earn a starting spot on opening starting line-up?
