[Sports Center/Comprehensive Report] Dodgers Japanese strong pitcher Yunobu Yamamoto surrendered a high-quality pitch that allowed 1 run in 7 innings today, helping the Dodgers defeat the Brewers 5-1 on the road. Yamamoto won his fourth win of the season. Dodgers head coach Dave Roberts praised, "I feel like he completely controlled the game!"

Yamamoto Yunobu's control of the ball in this game was not in the best condition. He allowed the opponent to get on base in 6 and a half innings. Today, he pitched 92 pitches in 7 innings, including 60 strikes. He allowed 7 hits, 1 run, 3 strikeouts, 1 walk and 1 hit ball. He won his 4th win of the season and had a post-game ERA of 3.09.

As for Yamamoto Yunobu's good pitch, Robles pointed out that even though he didn't actually feel good about the curveball today, he still continued to use it. I like this very much, but I have never been able to really master it. But the knuckleball, fastball, and other pitches are all excellent. "

Dodger catcher Dalton Rushing pointed out that the Brewers' line was very active in swinging the bat from the beginning of the game. "This also helped our game plan to a certain extent, allowing Yoshi to throw longer... Regardless of the pitch type and regardless of the number of strikeouts, I think his pitch power is really good."

Robles mentioned, "He is the kind of pitcher who will stand up in big situations. This is what an ace pitcher should be like. They have the ability to withstand pressure situations and make the key shots they need, whether it's a strikeout or a double play, as long as the team needs it, he can do it. This is an ace pitcher. And, God, few people in recent years can do better than Yoshi in last year's playoffs."

After the game, Yamamoto Yunobu said through translator Yoshida Sonoda: "They are very active, so I just try to throw the ball more accurately and to the place I want. I focus on one batter, one batter... In some cases, there are people on base, so I will be more precise and focus more on execution."
