NPB Inter League : Tokyo Yakult Swallows 1 vs 0 Chiba Lotte Marines
José Quijada was ice-cold on June 3rd, throwing a masterful, scoreless 9th inning to seal a dramatic 1-run victory for the Swallows against the Marines. Entering a high-stakes, maximum-pressure situation with a razor-thin lead, the elite closer demonstrated perfect composure. While he allowed a single hit, Quijada issued absolutely no walks and dialed up a clutch strikeout to slam the door on Chiba Lotte’s comeback hopes. With this flawless shutdown performance, the star lefty lowered his spectacular season ERA to a mind-boggling 0.86, cementing his status as an unhittable firewall at the back of the Swallows bullpen.
