[Season Series Record] Hokkaido Nippon-Ham (1st in the East) vs. Tohoku Rakuten Eagles (2nd in the East): 5 wins, 3 losses, 1 draw

Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Uta Sakaguchi, a fifth-year player out of high school. This season, he has played in 52 games but is struggling with a batting average of .154. He is a player with attractive power, having hit 11 Home Run in his third year, but his career batting average in the minor leagues is in the .100s. First, he needs to improve his contact hitting.

Tohoku Rakuten Eagles 's Soshi Yoshino, also in his fifth year with the team, has a batting average of .260 in 45 games. This season he has already hit 3 Home Run, matching his total from last season, showing steady improvement. He was promoted to the first team in May, but only managed 1 At Bat in 9 hit. Can he continue to impress and earn another call-up?
