The 18th game between Orix Buffaloes and Hanshin Tigers will be held at Toyonaka Rose The Buffaloes Stadium on June 20th at 1:00 PM.
[Season Series Record] Orix Buffaloes (Western League 2nd place) vs. Hanshin Tigers (Western League 4th place): 8 wins, 8 losses, 1 draw
Orix Buffaloes is keeping an eye on Jo Endo. Last season, as a developmental player, he played in 76 games, batting .282 with an on-base percentage of .410. However, this season he has struggled, batting .189. Can he find a way to regain his form and make a case for a return to the main roster?
In addition, Haruto Watanabe who had been sidelined due to injury, returned to the team in the game on the 19th, getting two hit in three at-bats. We hope he will be back in top condition and return to the first team as soon as possible.
