NPB Pacific League：Lions 2 vs 4 Fighters

Tyler Nevin continued his hot stretch for the Saitama Seibu Lions on September 17th, launching his 21st home run of the season—a two-run shot—in the top of the 4th inning against the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters. Following up on his 20-homer milestone from earlier in the week, the American slugger made no mistake on a pitch in the 4th frame, driving it deep into the seats to supply two massive runs. Nevin was effective all around at the plate, finishing 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBIs, a walk, and a run scored, raising his season batting average to .277. Powering through September with incredible consistency, Nevin remains a vital cleanup presence in Seibu’s lineup.
