On the 10th, 10 new players, including Lotte's first-round draft pick, right-handed pitcher Genki Ishigaki of Kendai Takasaki, who has a top speed of 158 km/h, toured the facilities at Zozo, including the players' lockers, bullpen, and weight room.

After actually standing on mound and experiencing the atmosphere of the stadium, Ishigaki said, "It was a little soft, just the right firmness for me. The stadium is huge when you see it in person, and I can't wait to pitch here," showing his eagerness.

The 10 new players also enjoyed interacting with each other, taking commemorative photos with their smartphones. Ishigaki revealed his ambition, saying, "Tanaka, who is a working professional, can throw a ball over 160 km/h, so I want to ask him a lot of questions and learn from him."
