On the 18th, Lotte win the game against Rakuten (Rakuten Mobile) with a score of 4-1. Ryusei Terachi, who started as the ninth batter and catcher, hit his first starting line-up Home Run in the third inning and his second professional solo home run in the eighth inning, showing great performances.
defense Teraji, 19 years old and in his second year, has made his presence felt both offensively and defensively, leading Boss to a no runs pitch decision in the middle of the 6th inning. "I mentioned him as a player to watch when I predicted standings him before the season opener," said commentator Akio Saito on the CS Fuji TV One "Pro baseball News" broadcast on March 18, "Last year he was the second highest batting average in the Eastern League at .290. He hit .290 in the Eastern League last year, and he has the ability to hit the ball far and in the opposite direction, so he has good stuff. 2 Home Run per game, so I think he's great.
Hiroki Nomura, a commentator who also appeared on the program, praised the 19-year-old's hitting skills, saying, "I'm sure we'll see more starting line-up from now on, and the first home run is hitting well. The inside left pitcher is difficult, but he hit it, so I can't believe he's 19 years old.
MC Motonobu Tanishige gave his stamp of approval, saying, "Toshiya Sato 's batting isn't good, and Tamura's form isn't improving either...This means Terachi will be in the starting starting line-up more often."
