On the 3rd, former DeNA pitcher Andre Jackson, who has recently joined the Lotte Marines, asked fans in his new home to tell him about gourmet spots in Chiba.
"First of all, I'm really looking forward to meeting my teammates and fans at spring training camp and getting to know the city of Chiba. I'm also looking forward to discovering new gourmet spots in Chiba. I'd love to hear some recommendations from my teammates and fans," he said, showing his enthusiasm to explore new Chiba cuisine, moving from the Yokohama cuisine of last season.
He is thoroughly preparing to succeed with Lotte in the United States. "My goal for 2026 is to become Pacific League leader in strike out and help my team win the league championship. I'm currently training five days a week. I can't go into details yet, but I'm also working on developing a new pitch. I spend my days off in the mountains of Montana to refresh myself," he said, getting his mind and body in order for his third season in the NPB.
Manager Saburo has high expectations for the right-hander, who won 10 games as a starter for DeNA last season. Jackson, I think, is a guy who will be in the starting rotation all year long, pitcher. closer He's a very capable pitcher player. He will be a great help." He intends to use Jackson as the core of the starting lineup.
