The 2014 Pacific League Climax Series (PLCS) consisted of two consecutive series, Stage 1 being a best-of-three series and Stage 2 being a best-of-six with the top seed being awarded a one-win advantage. The winner of the series advanced to the 2014 Japan Series, where they competed against the 2014 Central League Climax Series winner. The top three regular-season finishers played in the two series. The PLCS began on with the first game of Stage 1 on October 11 and ended with the final game of Stage 2 on October 20.
This game was originally scheduled to be played on Monday, October 13, but was postponed one day due to Typhoon Vongfong.[1]
