Due to the difficulty in forming a team due to the successive infections of the new coronavirus in professional baseball and giants, it was decided to cancel the DeNA vs. Giants match scheduled at Yokohama Stadium on the 31st.
At the Giants, director Tatsunori Hara and the main players were infected with the new coronavirus one after another, and the last three games of the first half and the first two games of the second half against DeNA on the 29th and 30th were canceled.
According to the giants, they were preparing to resume the game, but the condition of the players who had finished their medical treatment was not good, and it was difficult to form a team centered on fielders, so DeNA and 12 teams formed a temporary executive committee. With the approval of the association, it was decided to cancel the match with DeNA on the 31st.
With this, the giant has canceled 6 games due to the influence of the new coronavirus, and is preparing to resume the game with the Hanshin Tigers scheduled for the 2nd of next month at the Tokyo Dome in a series of three games.
