Rakuten Eagles pitcher Takahisa Hayakawa started the game against Hiroshima but was taken out after 5 innings, having given up 7 hit 2 runs.

In the first inning, with one out and runners on first and third base, he gave runs a run on a timely single to right field by Sakakura, conceding the first run. In the fifth inning, with two outs, he allowed doble to left field by Sakakura, and then a timely doble to center field by Montero, giving up another run.

The offense, eager to support their left-handed pitcher, is struggling against Hiroshima's starting pitcher, Morishita. After Taira hit a single to right hit in the first inning, 15 consecutive hitter have been retired, and they remain scoreless.
