Lotte will have a CS with Softbank starting on the 14. Immediately after winning Softbank, director Shigehito Iguchi (45) said: “The player base is thick and yet the place where we win in a row at the end is much higher than us, including experience. ” I was getting it. How to pave the way for the Japan series. Look for a victory both in attack and defense.[Mahito Kaneko]

◇ ◇ ◇

The regular season was 12 wins, 11 losses and 1 draw. The average goal per game is 3.25 points. Only the 11 games lost were 3.91 points. However, at points 7, 6 and 5 and the worst 3 days, Minoru Nakamura, who has little starting experience, is pitching. There is no appearance in the entire practice after entering Fukuoka, and it looks like there will be no chance to get on the board in this CS.

I have only won in the season. Pitchers have played a high-level role. This season’s team’s defense rate of 3.81 will improve to 2.99 when limited to Softbank games. Also, if we limit the number of 11 pitchers that are likely to scale in this CS to 2.35 at a time. The average score per game against Lotte’s Softbank is 3.46 points. Although there is a difference of 14 games, there is evidence that unilateral development is unlikely.

It should be noted that it is a hit at home. Lotte hit 14 home runs this season (three of which are currently absent from both foreigners), while pitchers hit 25 home runs. The symbolic is the match at ZOZO Marine on November 4. Chen Wayne pitched politely and powerfully, but two solos were hit, and the batting line built a mountain of three swings at Chiga, losing without scoring a single point. Both shots are regrettable because they were right after two deaths.

No. 1 Shuto leaves and returns at No. 3 Yanagida. It is also essential to “split” the scoring pattern which can lead to large entries. This season, there were 12 games (one of which was No. 4 Yanagida) that fought the combination of No. 1 Shuto and No. 3 Yanagida, but in the same inning, the intertwining of the two people led to a goal only 7 times. .. Zhoudong base (including assassination collapse) was 11 times with 38 seats in last 9 games. Even in CS, I want to prevent bases as much as possible. Great concentration is required during a game.
