"Good evening to all professional baseball fans, and welcome to the live broadcast of today's match."
"Today's game features the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks and the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters—since the start of the new season, both teams that performed well last season haven't had a great record: the former is 1 win and 5 losses, at the bottom of the Pacific League, while the latter is 2 wins and 4 losses, second to last."
"For both teams aiming to shake off their recent poor form, this showdown at the foot of the mountain of kings should be a great opportunity to get back on track. So, I imagine both SoftBank's Manager Akiyama and the Fighters' Manager Kuriyama are taking this game very seriously."
