Even after several continuous hours of high-intensity commentary, Takeshita Yohei in the studio still appeared quite excited at this moment:
"I never expected that in the very first game of the season, we would be fortunate enough to witness a complete game shutout—one must say, whether it's the SoftBank Team or Lin Guanglai, both maintained their excellent preseason form today, excelling in both offense and defense!"
"The current score, SoftBank 11:0 Rode, top of the ninth inning, two outs, and next up to bat for the Rode team is—"
"Cleanup hitter, pinch-hitter, Tadahito Iguchi."
"Cleanup hitter, pinch-hitter, Tadahito Iguchi!"
When this name echoed once more beneath the stadium dome, the previously heated Yahoo Dome fell into a brief silence.
