The Swallows came from behind last night to defeat the Carp, 5-4, in 10 innings and notch their first win of the season.
Former Rockie, Elehuris Montero, was not in the Carp lineup.

The Giants spent big as the club aims to win its first Japan Series title since 2012. But can the BayStars or Tigers spoil the Kyojin's fun? https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/03/25/baseball/japanese-baseball/2025-central-league-preview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #yomiurigiants #yokohamabaystars #hanshintigers #hiroshimacarp #chunichidragons #tokyoyakultswallows

Tigers fans had to endure a 38-year drought after the team's last Japan Series title.
