Rakuten Eagles infielder Luke Voit (35) joined the first team on the 15th.

The second-year foreign player has appeared in 18 games for the first team this season, batting .126 with 0 Home Run and 3 RBI. He has been struggling at the plate and was removed from the active roster on the 2nd.

In the minor leagues, he focused on improving his condition through actual games, and he recorded hit in all five games he played in the farm league. After being demoted to the minor leagues, he posted an impressive record of 9 hit in 19 At Bat and 6 RBI.

The team ended their losing streak the previous day, the 14th. There are high hopes that this will be a catalyst for further improvement.
