In response to Nomura's determined performance, Takagi Yutaka, the MC of Fuji TV ONE's "Pro baseball News 2026" broadcast on the 15th, said, "I'm sure he was frustrated yesterday. He got his revenge." Commentator Tsuji Hatsuhiko added, "Professional baseball players are capable of this. There's another game the next day, so they're giving him that chance and letting him play. It's great that he was able to produce results like this, he has a lot of guts." Takagi nodded and said, "He switched gears well and went into this game with confidence."

Furthermore, when Tsuji praised it as "an incredible Home Run," the other commentator, Kenichi Tanizawa, also smiled at the "sending in a pinch hitter" tactic once again, saying, "I hope he can get rid of that image quickly."
