In the match, Yakult lost 3 to 7, and Okugawa became the losing pitcher.
Pitcher Okugawa said, "The condition wasn't very good. I couldn't cope with the first mound, and I said it was slurping without being able to correct it.
I'm very disappointed with the early disembarkation. I have to level up even more. I thought. "
Yakult coach Shingo Takatsu said, "I'm glad I was able to take the steps to grow and come here. I think I'm a pitcher who will experience various things and become Yakult's ace, and I'm steadily using a fast ball. I want you to be the one who will take the lead in the team. "
