Softbank defeated the giant with four straight wins for the second year in a row, deciding the eleventh in Japan for the fourth year in a row, including the predecessor era of Nankai and Daiei. This is the first time in Pa League history that they have won the Japan Series for the fourth time in a row.

In the first run immediately after the first goal, Yuki Yanagida (32) fired a two-run backhand from Hatake, which was the third consecutive home hit in the Japan series. In the second inning, Takuya Kai (28) made two runs. Starting pitcher Takeshi Wada (39) was replaced with 3 hits and 1 run in the second inning, and then 6 pitchers continued to defend the lead.

Director Kimiyasu Kudo (57) has advanced to the Japan series five times in his six years in office and won all the championships. During his active career, he participated 14 times and won 11 times, making it the 16th time in Japan. With this, he surpassed Tetsuji Kawakami (giant) 4 times as a player and 11 times as a manager, and became second only. Most of it is Akira Mori (Seibu) with 6 times for players and 11 times for directors, for a total of 17 times.

Due to the spread of the new corona virus infection, the opening was delayed until June, and in August, Softbank was also infected by Yuya Hasegawa, a gardener (35). There was a cancellation of the game, but after that, it fought without sending the infected people.

With 12 straight wins at Japan Leeds and 16 straight postseason victories, he broke his own army’s professional baseball record and ended Corona’s special season with joy.
