Giants lose streak to DeNA, remain 0.5 games behind Tigers suffer walk-off loss to Carp
The Yomiuri Giants’ momentum was halted by a 5-0 loss to the Yokohama DeNA BayStars at Yokohama Stadium, ending their three-game winning streak. The defeat prevents the Giants from reclaiming first place in the Central League, leaving them 0.5 games behind the Hanshin Tigers. DeNA’s Keita Sano provided early offensive momentum with a grand slam in the first inning, while pitcher Takeda Yu delivered a strong performance, pitching 6.2 scoreless innings. Conversely, Giants starter Shinnosuke Ogasawara struggled, allowing five runs over four innings, which marked his worst performance since returning to the NPB. Giants interim manager Hashigami indicated that recent defensive adjustments, such as moving Riku Masuda to second base, were implemented with future roster considerations in mind. Amidst the loss, Giants player Hayato Sakamoto reached 2,471 career hits, tying him for 9th place in NPB history. Following the shutout, the Giants faced further setbacks in an 11-inning thriller against the Hiroshima Toyo Carp at Mazda Stadium. Although the Giants tied the game in the 7th inning through hits from Izumiguchi and Oshiro, they failed to capitalize on scoring opportunities in the 7th and 8th innings. The game ended in a 2-1 walk-off loss for the Giants after Hiroshima’s Katsuta hit a sacrifice fly in the 11th inning.
