My Prediction
Hanshin Tigers by 3Well butter my biscuits and call it a pancake, we've got a juicy matchup here folks. The Tokyo Yakult Swallows are squaring off against the Hanshin Tigers in what promises to be another day in the office.
The Swallows have had a season that could put an insomniac to sleep, registering just 23 wins in their 71 outings. They've been dancing at the party, but they forgot to bring the moves. Their record, I must say, is reminiscent of a horror movie, just when you think it can't get any worse, it does.
On the other side, the Hanshin Tigers have been feasting, boasting a 49-31 record that would make a Wall Street broker jealous. Recent tales would tell you that the Hanshin Tigers have been swatting baseballs with the precision of a Mozart symphony while the Swallows have been struggling to even chirp.
Taking a trip down memory lane, the Tigers have had the upper hand in the recent games against the Swallows, outscoring them significantly in their recent matchups. The Tigers have been treating these games like a bag of potato chips - they just can't stop.
On the basis of recent performances, the Hanshin Tigers, might just sail through this one, while the Swallows would have to fight tooth and nail to pull off a miracle. But never forget, even the prettiest rose has thorns and on any given day even a blind squirrel can find a nut.
