Shogo Akiyama of Reds, who had left the major league camp due to his family's accident, participated in the open game with the Giants for the first time on the 7th, and was a no-hitter with two at bats.
Reds Akiyama left the camp for about a week last month (February) after his wife was injured in a fallen tree underlay in a park in Ohio, on the 4th of this month (March). I returned to practice.
As a result, I haven't participated in the open match so far, but on the 7th, I started in the open match against the Giants in Arizona at the No. 1 center.
Akiyama struck out in the first at bat in the first inning, struck out in the second at bat in the third inning, and fell to the left fly in the second at bat in the third inning.
Akiyama has been highly evaluated for his defensive ability, such as being selected as the final three candidates for the National League left field at the Gold Glove Award given to a player with excellent defense last season. It is indispensable to appeal with batting that has a batting average of 20%, 4 minutes and 5 minutes.
