Lotte's pitcher Andre Jackson (30) will start in the game Rakuten Eagles on the 30th (Rakuten Eagles Mobile).

Due to the cancellation of his scheduled start due to rain, this will be his first mound in 10 days since the first game of the league season since its resumption on the 19th (at ZOZO Marine Stadium). "I'm simply ready, so I'll just do my best. I'll focus on pitching well. That's all. Let's go!" he said, showing confidence in his bid for his fifth win.

The team, currently in fifth place in Pacific League has a record of 33 wins, 33 losses, and 3 ties in 69 games. A loss on the 30th would put them back into a losing record for the first time since the 13th, so they'll be hoping for a strong performance from their foreign right-handed pitcher to secure win.
