On June 5th, two farm team regular season games will be held, hosted by Pacific League League teams.

While An-Ko Lin is adjusting in the minor leagues, will Kohiro Komori be promoted to the first team as he is in perfect health?

At CAR3219 Field, the third game between Saitama Seibu Lions and Tohoku Rakuten Eagles will be held starting at 13:00.

Saitama Seibu Lions 's An-Ko Lin Yasuka is currently undergoing rehabilitation with the minor league team. This season, he appeared in 38 games with the first team, but his batting average was only .200 with Home Run, failing to showcase his offensive prowess, and he was removed from the roster on May 29th. In the game the day before, he hit a game-winning three-run triple. He will be hoping to continue performing at this pace.

Tohoku Rakuten Eagles 's Kohiro Komori is in good form, with 4 At Bat 8 hit in his last 4 games, including Home Run the day before. He has only played in 11 games so far this season, and even had a two-week period in May where he didn't play at all. Can he get into top condition and earn a promotion?

Can Hotaka Yamakawa, who hit a 3-run homer the previous day, improve his chances?

The 12th game of the series between Fukuoka Softbank and Hiroshima will be held at Tama Home Stadium Chikugo starting at 6 PM.

Fukuoka Softbank removed Hotaka Yamakawa from their roster on the 1st and he is currently playing in the minor leagues. This season, he has hit 9 Home Run in 46 games for the first team, but his batting average is a disappointing .175. In the previous series against Hanshin Tigers, which he faced after being readjusted, he hit a 3-run homer on the 4th and recorded 4 RBI, but that was his only hit. He will need to improve hit average first.
