Games 12-13 @ Baystars: Can’t Find the W Button in Yokohama

Games 12-13 @ Baystars: Can’t Find the W Button in Yokohama
April 16, 2023

Heading into this series, our Tigers had lost 8 straight regular season games in Yokohama. (But don’t worry – we beat them in the playoffs last season in their park!) We had two outstanding pitchers take the mound in this rain-abbreviated series (no game on Saturday)… Hiroto Saiki did his job really well, but Koyo Aoyagi had an uncharacteristically bad day. Meanwhile, our bats seem to have forgotten that this is a hitter-friendly environment! Just four runs (including a Yusuke Ohyama solo home run) in those two games. We head back home after a 2-3 road trip to face the first-place (?!?!?) Hiroshima Carp.
