On the 8th, Rakuten Eagles announced that joint voluntary training for rookies will be held overseas from the 10th to the 22nd.

Normally, the rookie joint voluntary training is held in Miyagi Prefecture, and this will be the first time Rakuten Eagles has held it overseas. Details such as the location have not been made public.

Second-round draft pick, pitcher Tatsuki Ito from Waseda University, said, "I've seen videos and articles about the senior players' rookie joint training sessions on TV and in newspapers. This time, the rookie joint training will be held overseas, so I think the environment will be different from usual, and I want to absorb as much as I can."
