Lotte's new players toured Zozo Marine Stadium on the 10th.

First-round draft pick Genki Ishigaki (Kendai Takasaki High School) visited his home stadium, Zozo Marine Stadium, for the first time and said with a smile, "When I saw it in person, it was really big, and I wanted to pitch at this stadium soon. I'm looking forward to pitching in front of the huge cheers."

Regarding mound, he said, "It was really soft and it was mound I like," and regarding his image of Lotte's cheering, he said, "I really think their cheering is the best out of the 12 teams, so I think it's amazing."

Marine Stadium is famous for its strong winds. During his student days, he revealed, "I've never pitched in a windy stadium. This is the first time." He also reassured us by saying, "I want to concentrate on the batter, so I don't mind the wind."

Lotte's new player announcement will be held on the 11th.
