Lotte’s Austin Boss will start in the game against Softbank on the 29th.

Through the team, Boss commented, “I’m in better shape. I think I’m able to vary the speed of my pitch. I’m able to throw strong balls into the zone, and I’m satisfied with my mechanics. I think I’m in top form, so I’ll take to mound with confidence. I’ve already pitched in three games against The Hawks, so I have a good grasp of the opposing hitter’ tendencies and how to deal with them. I want to use that to my advantage and create a game that will lead to a win for the team.”

So far this season, Boss has pitched 103 innings in 18 games, with a record of 2 wins and 7 losses and ERA of 3.84. He has pitched 16 inning in three games against Softbank, with a record of 0 wins and 1 loss and ERA of 5.06.
