(C)YDB Yokohama DeNA!? Giants!? The Yokohama DeNA BayStars, who finished second in the regular season, will face off against the third-place Yomiuri Giants for a spot in the Climax Series (CS) final stage! Both games will be broadcast live from start to finish! In 2024, the Yokohama DeNA BayStars went from third in the regular season to winning the CS and the Japan Series. In 2025, the fifth year under manager Daisuke Miura, the team aimed to achieve their long-cherished dream of winning the league championship under the season slogan “Take the Lead in Yokohama,” but finished the regular season in second place for the first time since 2022. The BayStars will face the third-place Yomiuri Giants, led by manager Shinnosuke Abe, in the first stage of the CS. Who will emerge victorious and advance to the final stage, where the first-place Hanshin Tigers, led by manager Kyuji Fujikawa, await? This will be the third time these two teams have faced off in the CS, following the first stage in 2016 and the final stage in 2024. In 2016, the BayStars, who finished third in the regular season, defeated the second-place Giants, 2-1, to advance to the final stage. In 2024, the BayStars, who finished third in the regular season, defeated the Giants, who finished first, with a score of 4-3, earning a spot in the Japan Series. The two previous matches between the two teams were held at the Giants’ home stadium, Tokyo Dome, but this time the stage will be the BayStars’ home stadium, Yokohama Stadium! With fans turning the stands blue, we’ll bring you every detail of the fierce battle between these “fierce stars”!
