Yokohama DeNA Baystas Trevor Bauer had his first shutout since his debut in the Japanese professional baseball league. In particular, the joy doubled because it was a victory over the Yomiuri Giants, who were quite weak in the opponent's record.
Bauer pitched 122 pitches, six hits, two walks, and seven strikeouts in nine innings of the 2025 Japanese professional baseball Yomiuri Giants at Yokohama Stadium in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, on the 3rd.
Bauer, who has been playing in Japan for two seasons, has been weak whenever he meets the Yomiuri Giants. In the match against the Yomiuri Giants, which was his second appearance in the 2023 season, Bauer left the worst pitching by allowing seven runs (six earned runs), allowing eight hits in six innings, and even after returning to the Japanese stage this year, he had seven hits (two homers) and five runs (five earned runs) in five innings.
However, he had never suffered three consecutive losses. In his previous game, Bauer earned his first win of the season by allowing one run (one earned run) in eight innings and allowing one earned run (less than one earned run) in eight innings against the Hiroshima Toyo Carp, and allowed no runs in nine innings to secure his second win. He completely repaid the humiliation of kneeling in both previous showdowns.
The start of the game was unsettling. Bauer got off to a disappointing start by allowing a walk to the follow-up hitter after receiving a hit from the leadoff hitter in the first inning. However, after receiving a hit from the leadoff hitter, Bauer created the first out count by blocking a stolen base with the help of the catcher, and after giving up a walk to the follow-up hitter, he increased the out count by hitting a double play and losing no points. However, he stabilized immediately.
Bauer recorded his first three-out walk in the second inning with two groundouts and one strikeout, and pitched flawlessly in the third inning with two strikeouts against the lower Yomiuri lineup. And after catching Yuta Izuguchi with a straight hit to second base in the fourth inning, he got a hit by Trey Cavage, but he continued his cruise without any significant crisis, stopping a steal once again.
His pitching continued. Bauer kept the Yomiuri Giants from losing points in the fifth inning, and continued to throw solid pitches in the seventh inning to complete a quality start (three earned runs or fewer in seven innings). Bauer pitched 99 pitches at the end of the seventh inning, but as the team was locked in a 0-0 tie, Bauer stood on the mound in the eighth inning as well.
Bauer continued his good pitching through the third three-out of the eighth inning, and in the bottom of the eighth inning, the Yokohama DeNA lineup finally scored the first point and gave Bauer a winning requirement. Bauer decided to end the game while throwing it out, and ended the inning with one strikeout and two fly balls in the ninth inning, winning a shutout of 122 pitches in nine innings. 메이저사이트
"It was a thrilling game with a one-point gap, but the fielders somehow managed to score a point," Bauer said to catcher Matsuo Zion, who helped him throw up to the ninth inning. "Xion is an excellent player. I am grateful for his performance today. He played a good role in everything from ball mixing to blocking and blocking."
"If I had pitched strikes well today, I would have been able to reduce the number of pitches without going to the full count," Bauer said. "I think Xion's lead was so good today that I was able to throw until the ninth inning somehow," he said. "Thanks to the fans' support, I was encouraged to stand on the mound in the ninth inning. The biggest joy is to be able to play in front of the fans. Thank you for your passionate support and loud voice."
