Hoshino showed similar tendencies. Anyways, it was unreal, it was like watching a high school game with the "ace" coming into relief early in the game and finishing the game. The Lions pitchers today are likely going to be Nishiguchi-Ishii-Wakui and maybe some relievers. Kinda troubling, the Lions will have to outhit the Giants again.
