I love Chiba Lotte Marines!

LF Takashi Ogino (40, Draci Brno)

Chiba Lotte's veteran of 15 seasons and probably the biggest star in Extraliga, Ogino is batting .306 AVG, .791 OPS with an elite 91% contact rate in 30 games this season. Many Japanese tourists travel to Brno just to see him play in Europe!

Lotte Marines P Akira Yagi has 9 Wins, all in relief. He's the 3rd player in NPB history to start a season 9-0 with all of his Wins coming as a relief pitcher. The last pitcher to do it was Takayuki Shinohara of the Daiei Hawks in 1999, 27 years ago

Happy Fathers Day……this is my first without my father who passed almost a year ago. I learned some life lessons from him. Most importantly that “Nothing Comes Easy…”Nothing Comes Free”.

He was proud of me….and that means everything !!! 👍

The Marines manage to scrape another draw against the Yomiuri Giants thanks to a 2-out 9th inning game-tying solo shot by Hisanori Yasuda.

Hisanori Yasuda ties it with 2 outs in the 9th 💣

It’s the first homer Raidel Martinez has allowed in 2026.
