Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (31) started the game against the Dodgers on the 25th (26th Japan time) as the “fifth right wing” and hit one shot, his fourth in the last five games. His first at-bat came in a scoreless second inning for both teams with one out. At a count of 2-2, he perfectly caught Roki Sasaki’s 98.5 mph (approximately 158.5 km) fastball high in the middle, and the ball that flew out at 103.8 mph (approximately 167.1 km) rapidly increased and became an oversized ball with a flight distance of 404 feet (approximately 123 meters).
