Pacific League Lotte 6-4 Softbank (30th, Zozo Marine)
Softbank suffered a painful come-from-behind loss. With a three-run lead in the sixth inning, Arihara gave up four runs in one go. He walked Walk leadoff hitter and then allowed five hit, allowing the opposition to take the lead. Kondo, who complained of discomfort in his left side on the 29th, was benched. Even so, Makihara Dai, who replaced him at third, hit the opening run in the first inning and followed that up with an RBI single in the fifth. The mood of a comfortable victory suddenly changed. After the game, manager Hiroki Kokubo asked, “Can I just say one thing today?” He admitted, “Today’s loss hurts,” and headed home.
Nippon-Ham lose to Rakuten in the day game earlier. A win would have given them a chance to widen the gap, but they remained one game behind.
