Ionaga Seungtai won the first win of the season with seven high-quality starters Cubs head coach: Wonderful pitching performance

Cubs Japanese pitcher Sebuta Imonaga, who had a good performance in the major league's overseas opener game but failed to win, faced the Sidewinders again in the away game today and handed over a high-quality starter, conceding only 1 point in 7 innings, with the successive bombardments of Kyle Tucker and newcomer Matt Shaw, the Cubs narrowly won 4-3, and Imanaga Seungta received the first win of the new season.

In the second game, he suffered turbulence, allowing the Rattlesnake to capture the base and drop the first point, but after surviving the crisis, the company became more and more courageous, and only allowed the opponent to score once in the next 5 innings, using 91 goals in a total of 7 innings, losing 1 point by 3 hits, and 4 strikeouts and 2 saves, and the defense rate dropped to 0.82.

After the game, Sebuta Imonaga said through an interpreter: "I was expected to only play 6 innings today, but thanks to head coach Craig Counsell for encouraging me to continue playing, allowing me to make one more inning, which helped the team save on the use of the cowshed. In a four-game series, having one more game helps the team a lot."

Since taking the lead in the opening game in Tokyo on March 18, Imanaga has not officially pitched on the board for 10 days, during which time he has only practiced pitching in the bullpen. Due to the high load on his media and marketing campaigns on behalf of the Cubs, the coaching staff did not arrange for him to participate in more spring training games for the sake of conservatism.

For Imonaga's excellent pitching performance, Consor also praised it vigorously. "He was very stable in controlling the rhythm of the early game, maintaining the energy of his pitching, and the power of the fastball remained undiminished until the last inning, which was a wonderful pitching performance."
