Marasy, a popular pianist with over 2 million YouTube subscribers, took the stage for first baseman pitch.

In 2021, Marasy held a solo concert at the Nippon Budokan as a pianist. Since 2008, he has been posting piano performance videos and live streams from his home, reinterpreting songs representing Japanese culture, such as anime, games, Vocaloid, and J-pop, in his own style.

In 2024, he wrote "Mugen no Ticket" for the Pokémon and Hatsune Miku collaboration project "Pokémon feat. Hatsune Miku Project VOLTAGE 18 Types/Songs," and has released many songs as a Vocaloid producer.

He appeared wearing a mask with horns resembling a samurai helmet, and Hatsune Miku also appeared on the large screen as a special guest. He then demonstrated an impressive no-bounce pitch and said, "I was able to throw a good ball thanks to everyone's support."
