Fukuhara Starts at First Base?

It's an Okada game - I am not sure why he does it. Maybe to conceal who will be his starting first baseman.

Central League teams aren't required to name their starting pitcher before the game, or well, even up until some guy takes the mound and starts throwing pitches. So basically Okada puts LHP Iwata and RHP Fukuhara in the lineup and decides at the last minute which one of them is actually pitching, based on the other team's lineup, how the pitchers are feeling that morning, and what he had for breakfast that morning.

Or, more likely, he could be waiting to decide who he wanted to play first base that evening, also based on the handedness of the opposing pitcher's starter. I saw Ohya do that a few weeks ago ("start" Sanada at shortstop as away team, see who the opposing pitcher is, replace him with either a lefty-batting Ishikawa or Ishii, or a righty-batting Furmaniak or Nonaka).
