On December 7, the second consecutive PERSOL Pacific League TV real event, "PERSOL Pacific League TV Patrea Awards 2025 supported by Pro baseball Fan Stars League," was held at Yebisu Garden Place The Garden Hall.

This event determines the grand prize for each category from among all the videos released on the official YouTube channel of Parsol Pacific League TV this year. Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Seven players from Yukiya Saito pitcher, Tohoku Rakuten Eagles and Daichi Suzuki players, Saitama Seibu Lions and Shuta Tonosaki players, Haruto Yamada pitcher, Chiba Lotte Marines and Koki Yamaguchi players, Orix Buffaloes and Kenya Wakatsuki players, Fukuoka Softbank and Yugo Maeda pitcher appeared and talked about various topics with MCs Kiyotaka Minamihara, Ryota Igarashi and Yuzuka Kikuchi.

Long lines for original goods! Photo spots and thumbnail displays too

The venue displayed thumbnails of memorable YouTube videos from this year, face-in panels, and photo panels of players, and many fans were seen taking commemorative photos even before the show began.

Many fans were seen looking at the thumbnails on display and reminiscing about their memories of this season, saying things like, "Oh, that reminds me, this happened!" and "I was watching this game live!"

Original merchandise was also on sale, with long lines forming at the sales booth right after the doors opened, in search of even more limited-edition items than last year's lineup, including stickers and key chains with thumbnail motifs, and event-exclusive "Towels for Patere."

Meanwhile, the players were spending the time before the show in a relaxed atmosphere. While the youngest pitcher, Maeda, looked a little nervous, Patere Honorary Ambassador Tonosaki lightened the mood with his characteristic cheerfulness, and each of the seven players enjoyed conversations with players from other teams, with whom they don't usually have much opportunity to communicate.

The show finally began. As each member appeared with a "Pa" face-in panel, the audience erupted in cheers.

The project got underway immediately, and while unique awards such as the "Best Actor Award" and "Best Stage Award" were announced one after the other, the "2nd TONOSAKI Award" category was particularly exciting. This award was established to discover a young athlete with a rich sense of expression and a sense of humor who will carry the future of Patere, just like Tonosaki, who serves as Patere's honorary ambassador. Many young athletes with unique personalities, such as Kotaro Kobayashi and Atsuki Muto, were nominated for this award. However, it was Tonosaki himself who won the grand prize!

Tonosaki has provided many memorable scenes for the Patelet this year, such as when he was trying to catch a foul fly ball near the net and the ball bounced off the net and hit him in the head, or when he dodged an inside ball with a comical movement. It seems that no one has been able to surpass Tonosaki's character, which is why he was chosen to receive the award.

After watching these videos, Minamihara praised their efforts, saying, "They work so hard that they are loved by the God of Comedy," and Hokkaido Nippon-Ham-Ham Fighters pitcher Saito expressed his enthusiasm by saying, "I'd love to be selected as the third TONOSAKI Grand Prize winner!" We're looking forward to seeing Saito's pitcher next season.

The "Pacific League TV Patele Awards 2025 supported by the Professional baseball Fanstars League" concluded with a bang, with the announcement of the grand prize winners in 10 categories, followed by a raffle at the end where fans could win autographed balls from the active players who appeared on the show. Anticipation is already building for what plays will be nominated next season.

Archived videos of the event are currently available on "Pacific League TV" and the "Pacific League TV Official YouTube Channel." Check out which videos won the grand prize in each category.
