◆ Pacific League League: Lotte vs. Orix Buffaloes (9th, ZOZO Marine Stadium)

starting line-up was announced. Orix Buffaloes, who would have secured a winning record against Lotte for the second consecutive year with a win, Keita Nakagawa infielder returned to the starting lineup after two games as the leadoff center fielder. In August, the hitter struggled with a .100 batting average and 2 RBI in seven games, but can he hit a hit that will help him regain his true form? Sho Gibo infielder at second base and Ryo Ota infielder at first, and Ryoma Yamanaka catcher, who had started 46 games as a first baseman so far, entered left field for the sixth time this season.
