On July 4 at 6 p.m., the 13th round match between Fukuoka Softbank and Saitama Seibu Saitama will be held at MIZUHO PayPay Dome.
【Head-to-head record】Fukuoka Softbank (2nd) vs Saitama Seibu (4th) 6 wins and 6 losses
[Advance notice]
Fukuoka Softbank: Moinello pitcher 13 games, 7 wins, 0 losses, ERA 1.28
Saitama Seibu: Natsuki Takeuchi pitcher 6 games, 3 wins, 2 losses, ERA 3.34
Fukuoka Softbank started Moinello pitcher. He has a good chemistry with Saitama Seibu, and since switching to the starting lineup, he has an impressive record of 6-0 and a ERA of 0.75 in eight matches. On the other hand, Hotaka Yamakawa players had walk-off hits in the 2nd and 2 Home Run in one game on the 3rd. I’m looking forward to another match-deciding shot.
Saitama Seibu is Natsuki Takeuchi pitcher. He has been slow to start the season due to injuries and has not been able to pitch as well as he would have liked so far, with a ERA 3.34 ERA, but he has pitched well in his last two starts, going six runs innings. Against Fukuoka Softbank, they have closer in the ERA 1-point range, including last season. In order to stop the losing streak, can they overwhelm their opponents in their hometown of Fukuoka?
◇ pitcher Takeuchi Comment
“I haven’t been able to pitch the way I want to pitch yet, but I’d like to get to the mound with the idea that I hitter ‘ll be able to put in a good rhythm and get into a good offense by performing at my best on the day.
