Orix pitcher Alen Kuri will be starting against Rakuten on the 12th (Rakuten Mobile Park) aiming for his second win of the season. In his first appearance since transferring to the team on March 29th (Kyocera Dome Osaka), he gave up two runs in six innings and was winless. "It's our second match, so I think the opposing batter knows what the trajectory of the ball is," he said, before adding, "The last time we played, walk a lot and my rhythm was bad. I want to take on each player one by one, not make too many weird changes, and be bold when I need to be."
In the Nippon-Ham game (ES CON FIELD) on the 5th, he made his first win since transferring with 1 runs in the 8th inning. The right-hander, who has set a goal of "200 innings pitched," set a theme: "I don't go in with the pitch (assumption) to throw long innings, but I want to go all out from the first inning to closer each and every one of them, and then I can throw for a long time."
