Team president Sadaharu Oh opposes the acquisition, saying, “A guy who is stingy when it comes to playing with women is no good!”
In a statement released around 7 p.m., they said, “By going beyond the understanding that this is a system established as a player’s right, and by hearing voices that have never been heard before, we will be admonishing ourselves.” Developing a mysterious theory that is “beyond understanding.” “Why is FA a warning?” he asked, making people tilt their heads.
