Sho Nakata, who was transferred from professional baseball / Nippon-Ham to a giant but was demoted to the 2nd army due to a malfunction, was registered as a participant in the 1st army on the 21st.
In August, Nakata was suspended from participation by violence against his teammates at Nippon-Ham Fighters, and was then traded free of charge by the Giants, who transferred and hit a home run in the second game.
However, in 16 games, the batting average was 10% and 5 minutes, one home run and two RBIs were extremely sluggish, and the registration of the 1st army player was canceled on September 11.
In the 2nd army, he made adjustments by receiving advice from Shigeo Nagashima, the honorary coach for the rest of his life, and in the Eastern League games, he demonstrated his long hitting ability and hit four home runs.
And on the 21st, Nakata was registered as a participant in the 1st Army.
In addition, pitcher Vieira, who had been withdrawn due to a sense of discomfort in his right elbow, was also registered as a player in the 1st Army on the 21st.
