ORIX Annual Jet Balloon Assistance Requesting Self-Restriction February 18 20:08

In response to the spread of the new coronavirus, ORIX, a professional baseball player, has decided to ask fans not to support jet balloons this month in open matches and practice games in Miyazaki.

It is customary for Oryx to sing a cheering song for the team before the seven attacks and then fly the jet balloons all at once.

However, as the outbreak of the new coronavirus spreads, the team played jet balloons against fans in a total of four games, including open games and practice games, which will be held at Kiyotake Sports Park in Miyazaki City this month from 23rd as a preventive measure. I decided not to cheer for me.

We are currently considering ways to respond to the next month's open match hosted by the baseball team, such as in the hometown of Kyocera Dome Osaka.

Moves to ban the use of jet balloons and ask fans to control themselves have spread to other professional baseball teams such as Hanshin and DeNA.

"It's very disappointing because of the popularity of this support.

ORIX will refrain from providing fan services such as signing, shaking hands, and taking photos for the time being, as measures to prevent the transmission of the new coronavirus.
