Admin’s Note

The recent series of hit-by-pitches involving Yanagita served as a reminder of the mental strength of athletes. Players who can remain calm and composed like him are truly invaluable. Additionally, the spectators’ reactions were quite interesting. Such incidents during a game can heighten the tension for both players and fans. I believe ongoing discussions about player health management and safety are essential.
