Serialization “Why am I a professional baseball player?”
The 8th Katsuki Matayoshi, Part 1
Professional baseball is a world of weak meat and strong food. It is a fiercely competitive society filled with elites who have been touted as child prodigies since childhood, but there is a person who has a unique career that makes me wonder, “Why did this player enter the professional world?” A series that focuses on such baseball players, “Why am I a professional baseball player !?”. Katsuki Matayoshi (Softbank) will appear in the 8th edition. Let’s deliver an astonishing success story in which the so-called “bean”, which was the second of the junior high school and high school, reigns over the best sidearm in the ball world.

—- Is there a moment when you still can’t feel the reality of being a professional baseball player?
Katsuki Matayoshi immediately answered that question, “I still have it.”
“‘Huh? Why am I here?'” Even if my article appeared in the newspaper at the time of FA, “Don’t make a big noise.” I’m watching it. “
From Chunichi, who had been enrolled for eight years until last season, he exercised FA rights and transferred to Softbank. He pitched in 400 NPB games until 2021 and held 143 holds in total. It can be said that it is a sidearm that represents the ball world now.
I am proud to say that I gained the right to death and exercised with conviction. On the other hand, the dream of “Is this really a professional baseball player?” Still remains. Matayoshi spilled.
“I think you’re living a bizarre life.”
Existence of familiar superstars
My dream for the future is a professional baseball player. No baseball boy has ever dreamed of writing in a graduation collection. Matayoshi said, “Professional baseball players use it in games.” Move the players appearing in the video game with the controller. That was Matayoshi’s professional baseball player.
Born and raised in Urasoe City, Okinawa Prefecture, he has been short since he was in elementary school. He is in the second position given. He felt in his childhood, “He seems to have no future as a player.”
I was already resigned because there was an easy-to-understand superstar in the same area. Hirohito Shimai. He later became a professional baseball player after many twists and turns, and with his good legs as a weapon, he became a presence.
