Liván Moinelo

Havana, Jul 4 (RHC) - Today, Cuban Liván Moinelo suffered his first setback of the season, in the 0x1 loss of the SoftBank Hawks against the Seibu Lions in the Japanese Professional Baseball League 2025.

At the Mizuho Pay Pay Dome, in Fukuoka, and for the Pacific League, the fast left-hander from Pinar del Río gave up eight hits and barely allowed one run in eight complete innings.

In addition, he struck out seven and gave up two tickets. But his team did not support him offensively, as they were held in check by starter Natsuki Takeuchi.

With this result, Moinelo's record stood at seven wins with one loss, and his effectiveness at 1.27.

In another game of the day with Cuban participation, the Nippon Ham Wrestlers defeated the Rakuten Eagles 7x1, at the Es Con Field, in Hokkaido.

For Nippon Ham, Matanzas first baseman Ariel Martínez hit a double and a single in four visits to the plate, scored once, and towed a teammate.

Ariel, who had not produced runs since June 19, raised his average to .219 and his total number of runs batted in to two.
