Another practice game

Discussion in the Tiger Tails forum
Another practice game
Tigers lost this game as well 5-3. Iwata opened against he Buffaloes and was excellent giving up only one hit. Vogelsong opened for the Buffaloes and conceeded one run to a Mench sacrifice fly. He conceeded another run to Arai in the third. Resop followed Ishikawa for the fourth and gave up five runs in that innings putting the Buffaloes ahead. Tigers got a run in the ninth from an Arai sacrifice fly but that was all. Tigers relief after Resop was sound and the Buffaloes generated only one hit after the fourth.

Kubota's recovery is not proceeding as planned. He also has a ganglion cyst which will need treatment. Any hope of him starting the season is looking unlikely.

Why did Resop give 5 runs up? Defense working on plays failed. Run scored. Error on shortstop, run score. Take away the defense problems, things change.
About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
