"Tsuba Kuro", who declared FA = free agent in the professional baseball / Yakult baseball team mascot and received offers from more than 100 companies, will remain.

Tsubasa Kuro made his debut as a Yakult team mascot in 1994 and gained popularity for his humorous performances before and after the match, and made his second FA declaration last month.



According to the team, there were offers from over 100 companies and organizations.

Annual salary of 50,000 yen and all-you-can-drink Yakult products

On the 7th, Tsubasa Kuro negotiated with the team and will remain on the condition that the annual salary will increase by 22,000 yen to 50,000 yen and Yakult's all-you-can-drink products, as well as coupons will be provided according to the activity.



Tsubasa Kuro held a press conference at the Jingu Stadium, where he was based, and at the beginning, when he saw a video of a message from teammates requesting to remain, such as veteran Masanori Ishikawa and Nori Aoki, he wrote "Kantoku Hajimechimu". Everyone's hotness has become sick. "



In addition, at the meeting, the Chunichi mascot character "Doala", who acted as an agent this time, appeared as a surprise and sent a message "Let's liven up the Central League and professional baseball together."



Tsubasa Kuro commented on the reason why he decided to stay, "I don't think everyone in this team wants to come! It's a feeling! I have only one heart."
