My best bet for this matchup is the Hanshin Tigers on the moneyline at 1.87 (Fanatics). The Tigers have been on a roll, and with Tanaka on the mound, they have a significant advantage over the Carp. The Tigers' offense has also been clicking, and I expect them to come out on top in this one.
So, if you're looking to make some yen, put your money on the Hanshin Tigers to take down the Hiroshima Toyo Carp. Just don't bet the farm, unless you're feeling lucky.
