Rakuten: The Eagles are 0-4-1 over their last five against the Lions. ... Karashima took the loss and is 4-4 in nine starts. ... Makida recorded his third modasho of the year and first four-hit game of his career.
Seibu: The Lions are 4-0-1 since their last loss on August 11 (vs Nippon Ham). ... Nogami got the win and is 6-3 in sixteen games (eleven starts). He is also 5-0 in seven starts since his last loss on June 27 (vs Lotte). ... Wakui recorded his fourteenth save of the year. ... Akiyama extended his hitting streak to ten games. ... The Lions turned their second triple play of the season in the top of the 6th: runners on first and second, Fernandez flied out to right (Kumashiro made a leaping catch near the wall) and both runners on base could not return to their bases in time.
