Orix pitcher Ryuhei Sotani has been selected to start in the game against Lotte on the 2nd. In his first appearance this season, he will face an opponent who has come from behind to win three consecutive games since the start of the season. "I think I'm on a roll after all, so I just need to show what I've been doing. I hope I can pitch my own way without being too cautious," he said enthusiastically.
As for hitter he is particularly wary of, he named Polanco, who has a batting average of .333, and Soto, who has already hit two Home Run, saying, "I think the foreign players are in good form." He told himself, "Even if there are runner on base (before those two), I'll just pitch carefully and low."
