Nippon-Ham 's Kota Tatsu pitcher revealed his feelings about the Dodgers' back-to-back World Series on the 2nd. win After paying tribute to the Dodgers, he said, "To be honest, I wanted the Blue Jays to win." Behind it is a strong respect for big leaguers. Tatsu was a big major connoisseur even before joining the professional baseball, and said, "There are many pitcher in the Blue Jays that I personally like," and he revealed that he had many favorite players, such as Gausman and Bieber, who checked pitch videos on a daily basis, and that he personally paid special attention to Blue Jays players. In addition, he is a big fan of Scherzer, a 41-year-old right-hander with a total of 221 wins, and said, "I started watching the major leagues because I liked Scherzer since high school.

Looking back on the showdown, he said, "I think it was a World Series where each team's strengths were shown, so I think neither team has any regrets. It was the kind of game that made me think that. Guerrero hit at the end, and it was a game where those who were supposed to hit had to hit, and those who were supposed to hold closer had to hold the other closer."

Regarding the use of pitcher in short-term battles, he agreed with the major league style of pitcher, saying, "If a pitcher is hit, they're replaced immediately, and I think Japan should do the same." He then reiterated his desire to play in the majors after his success in Japan, saying, "I really want to pitch. It sounds like fun."
