◆Mynavi All-Star Game 2026: All Pacific vs. All Central (29th, Toyama)

Orix Buffaloes pitcher Anderson Espinoza started for the All-Pacific League team, pitching two innings, allowing one hit and no runs, and striking out one strike out.

In the first inning, he grounded out leadoff Yakult Nagaoka to second. Hanshin Tigers Sato carried doble down the right field line, but he grounded out Chunichi Hosokawa to shortstop and missed Hanshin Tigers Oyama, putting it to struck out.

In the second inning, he held The Giants' Ohshiro to a fly ball to center field, Yakult 's Masuda to a ground ball to the pitcher, and The Giants' Cabbage to a ground ball to third base, preventing any runs from scoring. Working in sync with his teammate Wakatsuki, he pitch like he did in his season when he led the team with nine wins, using his fastest two-seam two seam fastball at 151 km/h as his main weapon. From the third inning, Seibu Lions 's Takahashi took mound as the second pitcher.
