Pitcher Roki Sasaki of professional baseball Lotte made a comment for the starting lineup in the Softbank game on the 20th, showing his enthusiasm, "I want to do my best on the mound so that the team can win."
Pitcher Sasaki, who is in his third year as a professional pitcher, achieved the youngest perfect game in history against Orix on the 10th of last month, and even in the game against Nippon-Ham on the 17th of last month, he showed perfect pitching with no hits and no four pitches up to eight times. Then, I won the monthly MVP in March and April in the pitcher division of the Pacific League.
So far, I have won 4 wins alongside the league top.
Pitcher Sasaki commented on the starting lineup for the Softbank game at the PayPay Dome in Fukuoka City on the 20th, saying, "I want to do my best on the mound so that the team can win. That's all I have in mind." I showed it.
At PayPay Dome, in the open game in March, he showed good pitching with no runs and 9 strikeouts against Softbank in the 5th inning, but this is the first time he has pitched in the official game.
Also, on the 20th, as in the match at ZOZO Marine Stadium on the 6th of this month, there was a pitching with Kodai Senga of Softbank, and on the 6th, both pitchers did not win or lose.
It will be interesting to see what kind of pitching pitcher Sasaki will show in the pitching with the opponent's ace again.
