Seibu Lions won the final game of the interleague series, achieving their first-ever interleague championship in franchise history. On the CS Fuji TV ONE program "Pro baseball News," which aired on the 16th, the panelists praised Seibu Lions 's performance.

First, Tomotaka Sakaguchi cited defense power and solid game management as factors contributing to his strength, saying, "He brought momentum from defense. He also ranked second overall in scoring goals. Rather than winning by hitting repeatedly, we played by connecting and scoring one point, then defending that lead."

Meanwhile, Mitsuru Manaka highly praised the team's overall strength. "Of course pitcher were excellent, but I got the impression that everyone, including fielder, was fighting together. It was a team where a different hero emerged every day, and I felt their momentum," he commented. He added, "Even after the interleague games are over and we return to the pennant race, I don't think this strength will easily disappear," expressing his expectations for future battles.

The team finished the interleague series with a record of 14 wins, 3 losses, and 1 tie. They won the championship with the highest winning percentage in history at .824, recorded the best team ERA of 1.53 among all 12 teams, and scored 66 runs, ranking second overall. They dominated the interleague series with a flawless performance both offensively and defensively.
