On "PERSOL Pacific League TV," during the PERSOL CS Pacific period, in addition to the regular match broadcasts, a secondary audio project will be held to provide cheering commentary for both the home and visitor teams.

This project was decided upon with the desire for fans to enjoy the PERSOL CS Pacific, the culmination of this season, to the fullest. For the crucial first games of both the first baseman stage and the final stage, we will deliver secondary audio broadcasts featuring alumni from each team as "Super Cheering! Play-by-play and Commentary for Fans," which is completely different from the commentary of regular match broadcasts.

▼Comment from Hisanobu Watanabe▼
"I am looking forward to being able to provide cheering commentary for The Lions. While conveying the charm of the players I fought alongside, I want to cheer with all my might, just like the fans, so that The Lions can break through the first series."

▼Comment from Dai-Kang Yang▼
"A very important game for my former team, The Fighters, has become my commentary debut! I will do my best to provide commentary that allows the fans to enjoy the game even more."

▼Comment from Yuki Yoshimura▼
"Since this is a secondary audio broadcast where we cheer for The Hawks with all our might, I'm fired up too! I'm already excited to see how much passionate play The Hawks players will show us. On the day, I'll forget my position as a commentator a little (laughs) and want to send cheers to The Hawks with a full swing alongside all the fans!"
