"My name is Seira Anzai, and I will be throwing out the first pitch for the first time. I love watching baseball, and I've always dreamed of throwing out the first pitch someday, so I'm really happy to have been given this opportunity and I'm really looking forward to it. On the day, I will do my best to cheer on Rakuten Eagles together with everyone at the stadium, so I would be grateful if you would watch over me warmly. Thank you very much."
