My Prediction
Hiroshima Carp by 2So let's cut to the chase because I'm not being paid by the word. Hiroshima Carp and Chunichi Dragons are about to square off and if you ask me, that's the equivalent of watching a pantomime horse race.
The regular season has both teams neck and neck like two charming sloths on valium, with Hiroshima Carp boasting all the vigor of lukewarm tea at 4-4 and Chunichi Dragons falling slightly behind just like its namesake would in a flying contest, at 3-5.
To add some fun, because heaven knows we need it, past matchups have been as unpredictable as my ex-wife's moods. Notable games include Chunichi Dragons' squeaking out victories lately, like a mouse in a cheese shop, although Hiroshima Carp has bitten back just enough to keep things interesting (or as interesting as a turtle knitting contest can be).
Oh, the recent action, you ask? Well, let's see. Hiroshima Carp seems to be rolling in the happy like a dog in mud against Yokohama DeNA BayStars, but Chunichi Dragons vs Tokyo Yakult Swallows was more of a roller coaster ride, or a slightly uneven seesaw if you ask me.
If the idea of predicting this game is as exciting as a snail rave, that's because it is. However, in this rather electrifying arbitrary prediction of ours today, we'll lean towards Hiroshima Carp, as their recent wins might have them humming the victory tune, although marginally.
