The official Persol Pacific League TV YouTube channel for August, 'Monday Goes to Patele,' shuffled the cast members. On August 10, Ryota Igarashi and Yuji Kaneko appeared to analyze the changes in pitching at Saitama Seibu Lions and Wingenter pitcher.

The game between Saitama Seibu Lions and Orix Buffaloes held on the 2nd. In the top of the 8th inning with Saitama Seibu Lions leading by 2 runs, Wingenter pitcher moved up to mound as the second pitcher, carrying runner in scoring position but not allowing any runs, setting a new Pacific League record and tying the NPB record for 18 consecutive games with hold.

In his second year in Japan, this season has been delayed by a poor right shoulder condition, but the Winger pitcher has pitched in 18 games so far, throwing 17.1 inning with a runs and an impressive pitch. He played a key role in last season's winning pattern, posting a strong ERA 1.74 ERA over 49 games, but alumnus Kaneko sees the changes since last season.

"First, my control. When I first joined the team last year, I thought my breaking ball control was still lacking, but this year, I feel like I've gotten count in breaking ball from the first pitch, and my breaking ball accuracy has improved. Also, my quick fasting has gotten faster. When I first came to Japan, I often lost my rhythm when he ran, but this year I've been able to do that well."

Even Igarashi, who has seen many foreign pitcher before, was impressed, saying, "Learning Quick in Japan isn't easy, and it's impressive how you work to adapt to Japan."
