“I really don’t like the match…” Yuya Mori, who transferred to Orix, talks about the absolute ace Yamamoto’s amazing | Full-Count

GM Fukura was also relieved, “I was relieved.

Yuya Mori, a catcher who exercised FA rights from Seibu and transferred to Orix, held a joining press conference at a hotel in Osaka on the 26th. Pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto reigns in the powerful pitchers who have won consecutive league titles and the best in Japan, and it is expected that they will form a battery next season. Regarding the existence of the “absolute ace” he had faced as an enemy until now, he said, “I thought I didn’t want to go to the plate as much as possible,” and once once more spoke regarding its dreadfulness.

At the press conference, wearing the number “4” jersey, Mori said with enthusiasm, “I want to contribute to the league’s third straight win. If possible, I want to wear a mask in every game.” GM Fukura, who presented a large contract with a total of 1.8 billion yen (estimated amount) over 4 years and acquired a “smashing catcher”, also said, “I was relieved. I told you that Mori-kun’s power was always needed.” I had high hopes.

I also feel the joy of leading the best pitchers in Japan. Classmate Wakatsuki, Ishikawa who transferred from Nippon-Ham, and others become rivals in the battle for the regular catcher, but “I think it will be a battle, but there is meaning in wearing a mask as many times as possible in one game. If possible, I feel like wearing it in all games. I want to do it with “I’m not going to give up.

Regarding ace Yamamoto, who won the “four pitchers’ crowns” for the second year in a row, “I’ve talked regarding it at All-Star, but I think I have to communicate. (Becoming a teammate) It’s very reassuring.” It seemed that they were looking forward to the formation of “Strongest Battery”.
