It’s been 14 years since then … He worked hard to build his body in Bali to fill in the blank, and after returning to Japan in August this year, he has continued to practice in line with the battle royale.
When the test result was obtained, “Shinjo-bushi” also showed that “the ball seemed to stop”. On the other hand, he himself set the deadline at 13 days, saying: “If there is no offer in 6 days, baseball is over.”
