Central League games restart from tomorrow on. Hanshin Tigers will begin the series against Yokohama Baystars in the Yokohama stadium.
The Central League ranking is as follows:
| Rank | Team | G | W | L | D | WP | GB |
| 1 |  | 60 | 36 | 24 | 0 | .600 | - |
| 2 |  | 59 | 32 | 26 | 1 | .552 | 3 |
| 3 |  | 63 | 31 | 31 | 1 | .500 | 3 |
| 4 |  | 61 | 25 | 34 | 2 | .424 | 4.5 |
| 5 |  | 61 | 22 | 37 | 2 | .373 | 3 |
| 6 |  | 60 | 22 | 38 | 0 | .367 | 0.5 |
Our Tigers must take the chance and get closer from the Giants, since they have a better ERA than Yokohama (3.72 against 4.34) and a better AVG (.272 against 2.63).
But they mustn't take easy the games, since they lost 2 out of the 5 games they played against the Baystars. Especially when the Giants are playing against the Dragons (4 wins and 2 loses for the Giants). Moreover, tomorrow will be a great pitchers' duel with Utsumi pitching against Yoshimi.
The starters of the game that concerns us, are Ohka, who came back from MLB this year, and Kubo ("Kuball").
 | Throws Right ERA 3.25 2 Wins 1 Lose 0 Saves |  | Throws Right ERA 2.87 5 Wins 4 Loses 0 Saves |
Kubo has to win. When Nohmi isn't around, he is the ace of Hanshin.
