A new player who joined the professional baseball team Hiroshima moved into the dormitory, and pitcher Ryosuke Kuribayashi, who was ranked first in the draft, expressed his enthusiasm, saying, "I want to do my best not to disappoint."
Seven new players, including one trained player who joined Hiroshima, came to the dormitory of the baseball team in Hatsukaichi City, Hiroshima Prefecture at 10 am with their suitcases.
Of these, pitcher Kuribayashi on the right, who joined the team in the first place in the draft from Toyota Motor Corporation, entered the room called "Promotion Room" where pitcher Kenta Maeda, who plays in the major leagues, spent a tight look.
Pitcher Kuribayashi entered the dormitory with a pass with an autograph signed by Director Sasaoka at the draft meeting, and said, "This pass is going to return to the beginning because the path of a professional baseball player started from here at my origin. I brought it with me. "
Pitcher Kuribayashi was enthusiastic, saying, "I am the only one who was nominated for Hiroshima in the 2020 draft. I will do my best not to disappoint."
In addition, right-handed pitcher Juto Kobayashi, who joined the team from Chiben Wakayama High School in 4th place in the draft, brought in a glove embroidered with "No home runs" and said, "I was hit by a goodbye home run with Senbatsu, so I will not repeat the same thing again. I embroidered in that sense. "
The new players will start joint training on the 9th to prepare for the spring camp.
