The 54th Mitsui Golden Glove Awards ceremony, which honors defense masters from both the Central and Pacific Leagues, was held on the 27th at a hotel in Tokyo.
The fifth consecutive winner Rakuten ・ Ryosuke Tatsumi outfielder (28) appeared in a chic suit in the team's "Crimson Red" color, a change from last year's full-body gold fashion.
Even though he has put his shocking fashion on hold, the unconventional world of Tatsumi remains the same. The theme for this episode is "miracle." Despite being demoted to the second team due to poor batting performance, he described his record of 337 defense opportunities, the most in the league, with only one error, as "incredible," and at the same time, he drew laughter by saying, "It's almost a miracle that Tatsumi came in normal (clothes)." He joked, "I'm the only one who gets asked about my costume, right?", but also announced a new joke, saying, "I'm preparing something outrageous from next year onwards, so for now, let's call it 'variance in speed'."
He has exercised his domestic free agent rights and said he "doesn't know" where he will be playing next season, but added, "I've never won a championship as a pro. I want to win a championship and come back to this place again." He also shared a new ambition: "I want to win this award as pitcher. I'll be a 'three-way player' who can hit, pitch, and defend." It will be interesting to see if a team will emerge that will grant him pitcher at pitching after his offer was rejected during Rakuten 's training camp this spring.
