Seibu Lions. Sosuke Genda infielder (32) showed warmth and concern on the 23rd.
He opened up about his training in Maebashi, Gunma, where he is currently working with Takizawa and the developmental team's coach, Kaneko. He did weight training in the morning, and before resuming training on ground, he treated the 30 or so members of the press who had gathered to mazesoba noodles from a food truck.
The temperature in the city that day was 6°C. My body was chilled by the strong winds that are a specialty of Joshu, but Genda's kindness gradually warmed it up.
