Ten rookie players from the Lotte Marines moved into The Marines dormitory in Saitama City on the 7th. Ryo Sugiyama, outfielder from Aichi Gakuin University who was selected third in the development draft, brought a gate flag of actor Masaki Suda, of whom he is a big fan.
She has been a fan of Suda since her first year of junior high school, and is a member of his fan club, with the gate flag being a gift from a senior at university. "I've been feeling a lot better since I got this. It's not a good luck charm or a good luck charm, but I feel like I should keep it with me," she said with a smile, holding her favorite gate flag. Until now, she had been using it as a curtain, but "when I wake up, our eyes meet. I've even talked to (Suda on the gate flag), but his expression hasn't changed. A lot of sunlight comes in, so it's pointless," and she has not yet decided how to use it at The Marines dormitory.
Although he has been to a live performance, he has never met her in person, and his dream is to "co-star in a drama." In order to make this a reality, he first aims to be registered as a player under contract.
