On April 13, Ginji-san appeared on "Mondays at Patere supported by Nash" on the official YouTube channel of PERSOL Pacific League TV. He picked up two players who have attracted attention this season with their brilliant "transformed hitting," and explained them with demonstrations.

In the latter half of the program, Ginji, who was also called a "perverted hitter" for his skillful bat control and hitting many bad pitches during his active career, started a new corner to pick up "perverted plays". He also called his hitting technique "perverted hitting. He reviewed them with video clips.

The first player selected was Saitama's Seibu Lions and Junichiro Kishi player, who hit a timely hit to win the game on April 7 against Fukuoka Softbank. "It was a daikon cutter with this guts," he said. He repelled the ball with his persistence," exclaimed Ginji. Kaneko also let out an exclamation of admiration, "Oh! Kaneko also let out an exclamation of admiration.

Ginji commented on Kishi's "perverse hitting," saying, "If you wrap your body around the ball, it is hard for the head to return, so you get a good hit and it flies into the hit zone. He explained, with a demonstration, that "when you wrap your body around the head, it is hard for the head to return, so you get a good hit and it flies into the hit zone. He continued, "Yes, it's a strange way of hitting, but it makes sense. The other thing is guts. He uses his guts to roll the ball around and hit it with a good use of his body. Nice batting! He again praised the player's batting.

Next, Ginji picked up on the walk-off hit by Orix Buffaloes and Ryoma Nishikawa against Chiba Lotte Marines on April 9. He said, "This one too, the head doesn't return. I really understand this feeling because I am hitting without returning the head at all! He expressed his sympathy.

Ginji also demonstrated this technique. Looking back on his own working days, he said, "In the case of the left pitcher, you are looking at the ball from a little higher up. （If (count is) 3-2, I'm going to hit it, but infielder is also forward defense, so I have the image that if I fly forward, it will fly into the hit zone, so I don't return the head and swing the bat vertically for this too. My hips rotate sideways, but instead of pulling my elbow outward, I pull it forward," said Ginji. He praised Nishikawa's hitting technique, saying, "Not just anyone can hit that ball.
　
Kaneko agreed, saying, "If you go straight for the ball, it's impossible, isn't it? Before the demonstration, Ginji looked worried: "I did it when I was active, but I don't know if I can do it ......," he said, but he demonstrated a brilliant "metamorphic swing" just like in his active days.
