Prediction: Yokohama DeNA BayStars VS Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles 2025-06-05
The Yokohama DeNA BayStars are looking to bounce back from their 5-game losing streak, but it won't be easy against the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles. The Eagles are riding high after their 3-1 win against the BayStars, with Nakaishi Tatsuro pitching 6 scoreless innings.
The BayStars are struggling, and their recent performance doesn't inspire much confidence. They've been outscored and outplayed in their last few games, and it's hard to see them turning it around against a strong Eagles team.
The odds are in favor of the BayStars, with most bookmakers listing them as the favorites. However, I'm not buying it. The Eagles have the momentum, and their recent win against the BayStars shows that they have the skills to take them down.
My best bet for this game is the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles +1.5. The Eagles have shown that they can compete with the BayStars, and with their recent win, they've got the confidence to take them down again. The odds for this bet are around 1.77-1.89, depending on the bookmaker.
I'm also tempted to take the under on the total runs scored. The Eagles' pitching has been strong, and the BayStars have been struggling to score. The odds for the under are around 1.74-2.05, depending on the bookmaker.
But let's be real, folks. The BayStars are due for a win, and they might just pull it off. However, I'm not counting on it. My money's on the Eagles to take this one and continue their winning streak.
Best bet: Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles +1.5 (odds: 1.77-1.89)
