My Prediction
Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters by 3Alright friends, let's break this sweet little matchup down. Don't break out your abacus; it's not that sophisticated. We got the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters sharing the field with the Chunichi Dragons. Now, based on their previous tussles, you can see the Fighters have had the upper hand, racking up a couple more wins, head to head.
And if numbers don't lie, then the regular season should give us some clarity here. The Fighters have been considerably more consistent with a record that could make a mathematician cry tears of joy - 39 wins to 26 losses. The Dragons, on the other hand, are floating around with 30 wins to 35 losses. Look, I'm no Sherlock Holmes, but it's safe to say they're not exactly breathing fire this season.
Let's take a gander at recent results. Good ol' Fighters are cruising with a solid win against the Dragons and have trampled over others like Erik Barnes and Hiroshima Carp. On the flipside, apart from their loss to the Fighters, the Dragons have seen a couple of defeats and just a single win against the Orix Buffaloes. The morale must be as low as my IQ after a one-on-one conversation with a flat Earth believer.
Now I know some folks argue that fortune favors the brave, but I say fortune favors the better team. The Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters are looking like the steak, while the Dragons are just burned toast on the side. So, without further ado, let's shed the suspense.
