On the 14th, Orix Buffaloes owner Makoto Inoue and manager Mamoru Kishida received a gift of 10 Kirishima Olive Red Pork (approximately 600 kg) from Miyazaki Prefecture from Kazuo Yoshihara, representative director of New Star Communications.

The horses are fattened on an original feed containing mineral-rich seaweed and olive cake, and their fat is known for its sweet, melt-in-your-mouth flavor. Yoshihara cheered them on, saying, "This year's championship is certain!", which brought smiles to the faces of owner and manager Inoue.
