"I'm so happy that we're able to do this collaboration event again this year!! This is our sixth time! As a Rakuten Eagles fan myself, I'll cherish this precious opportunity to stand on mound. I promise to give the strongest pitching performance from Iginari Tohoku-san at Rakuten Eagles Mobile's Saikyo Park Miyagi! I'll do my best to get the players and everyone in the stadium excited!! Hazuki Yuna, Iginari Tohoku-san"
