NPB Inter League : Tokyo Yomiuri Giants 2 vs 1 Saitama Seibu Lions
Forrest Whitley put together a highly efficient, masterful performance on June 13th, tossing 6.0 strong innings to earn his 2nd victory of the season against the Lions.

Whitley scattered just three hits and issued absolutely zero walks, completely dictating the tempo of the ballgame. He displayed elite damage control, surrendering a single unearned run while dialing up four big strikeouts to keep the Seibu lineup thoroughly neutralized. With this victory, his season ERA sits at a rock-solid 3.00, further establishing Forrest Whitley as a premier, high-leverage starter capable of steering Giants to vital wins.
