The period of "Priority Measures to Prevent Spread" applied to the capital was from the 12th to the 11th of next month, and the target area included the giant's hometown, Tokyo Dome, and the Yakult's hometown, Jingu Stadium.
The two teams planned to increase the number of spectators from the previous 10,000 to half of the capacity from the end of this month for the game at the base, but they have been postponed due to the application of "priority measures such as spread prevention" and requested by the city. Ticket sales will be discontinued and the number of spectators will be limited accordingly.

In addition, both teams planned to return the start time of the night game from the end of this month to 6 pm, but the Tokyo Dome will continue to move forward at 5:45 pm and the Jingu Stadium will move forward at 5:30 pm.
In addition, alcohol sales at the stadiums were previously limited to 7:30 pm at both stadiums, but from 13th to 6:45 pm at Tokyo Dome and 7:00 pm at Jingu Stadium. ..
