◆ Pacific League League: Lotte vs. Orix Buffaloes (7th, ZOZO Marine Stadium)

Orix Buffaloes Ryo Ota infielder returned to the starting lineup after three games, batting fourth and batting second. In the game Rakuten Eagles on the 3rd (Tokyo Dome), he injured his left wrist during the defense and was substituted out, missing the next two games. This season, the team-high 56th game this season, the star hitter will be used as the cleanup hitter. Can he once again make his presence at the center of the lineup? Tomoya Mori catcher will be batting seventh for the third time this season. With the key of both offense and defense, who had gone hit in his last two games, attention will be on whether he can deliver a restart-to-hit hit.
