On May 15th, three farm team regular season will be held, hosted by Pacific League League teams.

Draft pick #4, Yuya Sakurai, performed well in the previous matchup; McCusker is currently undergoing readjustment in the minor leagues.

At Lotte Urawa Baseball Stadium, the ninth game between Chiba Lotte Marines and Tohoku Rakuten Eagles will be held starting at 12:00.

[Season Series Record] Chiba Lotte Marines (4th in the East) vs. Tohoku Rakuten Eagles (2nd in the East): 2 wins, 6 losses

Chiba Lotte Marines has high hopes for their fourth-round draft pick, rookie Yuya Sakurai. In the previous game, Sakurai recorded three hit and three RBI. In their last series against Rakuten Eagles Rakuten (May 5th and 6th), he showed his presence with four hits and RBI hit eight At Bat. He will continue to impress with his bat and aim for his first promotion to the first team.

On the other hand, Tohoku Rakuten Eagles 's McCusker is currently undergoing rehabilitation in the minor leagues. He made the opening day roster but struggled and was removed from the roster on April 5th. He was recalled on the 25th but only managed 2 At Bat 10 hit, and was removed from the roster again on May 2nd, joining the minor league team on the 9th. Since joining the team, he has only managed 1 hit in 13 At Bat-bats in 3 games, so he is not yet in top form, but he hopes to gradually improve his performance in order to be recalled to the first team.

We look forward to Reon Murata 's powerful hit.

At CAR3219 Field, the sixth game of the series between the Saitama Seibu Lions and The Giants will be held starting at 1:30 PM.

[Season Series Record] Saitama Seibu Lions (2nd place) vs. The Giants (3rd place): 2 wins, 3 losses

Saitama Seibu Lions 's Reon Murata has played in 38 games so far, batting .301 with 5 Home Run, second in the Central Division, a strong performance. In the previous three-game series against The Giants, he went 4-At Bat-7 with one hit Home Run two Walk. We can expect to see him hit well in this game as well.

Ryoma Yamanaka is in good batting form, but will Itua Ikhine be able to impress with his running, hitting, and fielding?

At Sugimotoshoji Buffaloes Stadium Maishima, the 14th game between Orix Buffaloes and Fukuoka Softbank will be held starting at 13:00.

[Season Series Record] Orix Buffaloes (Western Japan 1st Place) vs. Fukuoka Softbank (Western Japan 2nd Place): 7 wins, 6 losses

Orix Buffaloes Ryoma Yamanaka recorded 3 hit, 2 RBI, and 1 Walk in their last game against Fukuoka Softbank Hawks (May 6th). In addition, he recorded a division-leading batting average of .302 in a total of 28 games in March and April, earning him the "SMBC Trust Bank Farm Team Monthly MVP Award." Can he maintain this good form?

Fukuoka Softbank 's attention is focused on Itua Ikhine. In his fourth season, he made the opening day roster for the first time in his career, mainly playing as defense substitute and pinch runner, but he had few at-bats and was removed from the roster on April 27th. He will be looking to continue to impress with his hitting, fielding, and baserunning skills in order to be promoted back to the first team.
