Inside Kyocera Dome, the most tense, exciting, and heart-racing bottom of the ninth inning in baseball has finally arrived.
The ongoing game on the field is nothing more than an ordinary official match; however, the significance and value it carries are heavier than the seventh game of the Japan Series in certain aspects.
On the electronic scoreboard above the outfield, the score of 3 to 2 is displayed there. For baseball, this one-point gap is fragile like a flickering candle in the wind, easily overturned by the opponent if not careful; not to mention, in this bottom of the ninth, Orix's lineup will rotate to their most powerful central batting order.
The upcoming inning might last a long time or end in the blink of an eye—will Orix turn the tables from the brink and retain their last hope of victory, or will the SoftBank Team be crowned as kings, winning the championship again after three years? The answer will soon be revealed.
