Mariners pitcher Yoshitoshi Hirano, who was infected with the new coronavirus in the major league and then recovered and became negative in the test, came to the press conference for the first time after joining the team, looking back on the period during medical treatment, I didn't have it, so I stayed in my room waiting for my recovery, but I was a little worried."
Mariners Hirano, who had been training voluntarily in his home state of Arizona, was infected with the new coronavirus late last month, and after two negative tests, he was in Seattle, where he was based on the 18th of this month. I joined the Mariners camp.
On the 22nd, Mr. Hirano attended the first press conference after joining the team and said about the time he was in medical treatment, "I had a family in Arizona, so I had no choice but to cure it by myself. I stayed in my room waiting for my recovery, but I was a little worried. I had a slight fever, but I was recovering day by day."
Regarding the situation at home, he said, "I didn't want my family to think like this, so I told myself not to leave the room and stay away from my children. I was most encouraged, and my wife also supported me."
Hirano said of his adjustments in the future, saying, "I have stumbled since the start of the race, but there are many similar players. I will open up again this season and work hard to avoid injury."
The Mariners will enter the opening game with Astros on the 24th of this month, but Hirano will leave the team and make adjustments in Arizona where the camp facility is located, and it will be staged such as bullpen pitching and practice against batters. I will aim to compete in the game by increasing my strength.
