Chiba's Playoff Roster(s)

Discussion in the Ask the Commish forum
Chiba's Playoff Roster(s)
I have a couple of pressing questions regarding this post, and if anyone can help me find answers, I would be very grateful.

Did Kenji Morozumi replace someone on this roster? He played in Games 2 and 4 in the Nippon Series, and was used a lot in the earlier playoff series against Seibu and Fukuoka. I'm looking mainly at Pascucci and Takenori Daita as players that might have been replaced by Morozumi. Was there an injury, perhaps?

Hisao Heiuchi and Masato Watanabe also played in the Hanshin series but are not listed on this roster. Did they maybe replace Hatsushiba or even one of the outfielders?

Basically, what I need to know is, were some of these players injured/disabled in the playoffs series?

If so: Which series did they miss? And who replaced them on the roster?

Thank you for all your help,
