◆ Pacific League Softbank 0-6 Seibu (4th, Mizuho PayPay Dome)
Seibu 's infielder Daiju Nomura starting for the first starting line-up this season, hit a home run that lived up to expectations, giving manager Nishiguchi his first win as a first-team manager.
In his fifth game of the season, he made his first starting line-up appearance at "6th and 2nd base". With both teams scoreless and no outs bases loaded in the fourth inning, he caught Arihara cutter from count 2-2. I was really desperate. The first and final two runs doble broke down the right-field line. He was the first and final two-run homer to beat the right fielder. I thought I would definitely hit first since the guy who had been on second baseman was still no-hit," he said. I'm glad I hit it," he said, showing his white teeth.
The offense gained momentum in the inning when 11 batters scored six runs in a hitter onslaught to earn their long-awaited first win of the season after losing their opening four games in a row. Dai Nomura, who played a key role in the Big inning, said, "It's been a long time since we won one game, but we want to win four games in a row from here."
