◆ Pacific League: Nippon-Ham vs. Orix Orix Buffaloes (30th, ES CON FIELD)

Orix Buffaloes Buffaloes infielder Bob Seymour has rejoined the first team after a month-long absence. In his first year in Japan this season, he had a batting average of .169 with only 3 Home Run, and was removed from the active roster on May 25th. However, all three Home Run were against Nippon-Ham Fighters, and he also had 69 at-bats in 18 games in the farm league.

In addition, Tomoya Noguchi infielder—who has contributed with his unpredictable hitting while playing second base and shortstop outfield—has rejoined the first team for the first time since June 9. On the 29th, Ishikawa and Gibo were removed from the active roster, and both players are expected to be re-registered.

Third-year right-handed pitcher Riku Miyakuni, who came up through the development program, also joined the first team from this day.
