—Please tell us what kind of role Seiichiro Sakurada plays. Seiichiro Sakurada is the owner of a large company. About the happiness of our 30,000 employees and their families I’m a person who is always thinking. Therefore, they thought that they needed a department to support their employees, so they established a secret benefit organization called “SBO.” As you can see from the name, which refers to baseball’s “strike ball out”, Sakurada loves baseball and applies the spirit of baseball to company management I’m making the most of it. ―― So Yajuro-san also shares the same thing about being a baseball fan.

Seiichiro Sakurada (Yajuro Bando) (C) Tokai Television FOD Sakurada is like a baseball boy who has grown into an adult. Even though he has a company and his own life, he thinks about everything in terms of baseball. I empathize with the fact that there is a baseball boy at the bottom of his desire to do his best for people and his employees. I love baseball so much that I played on a baseball team not only when I was a child, but even after I became a Kabuki actor, so I say, “All paths lead to baseball.” I understand his way of thinking. By the way, I have been a Giants fan for a long time, and my wife is a die-hard Hanshin fan. Even when Hiroshima became number one in Japan for the first time thanks to former Hanshin player Yutaka Enatsu, my wife cried in tears. He is such a passionate fan that when they first got married, they even got into a big fight over baseball. There were times when I couldn’t have dinner made for me (laughs). My favorite baseball player is a buntman. And in a sense, myself… –I heard that you particularly like Shozo Doi among the Giants players.

Doi-san may not stand out among the V9 Warriors, but he is a second baseman known for his solid defense, so I was able to watch the game with peace of mind. Also, Mr. Doi often played the second position in the batting order, but he was able to make hits there and connect them with Mr. Nagashima and Mr. Oh. Although he is not flashy, he has the atmosphere of a “craftsman”, and out of all the famous V9 fighters, I was most interested in him. ――The part about supporting someone from behind the scenes is similar to “Bantman.”

Seiichiro Sakurada (Yajuro Bando) (C) Tokai Television FOD I don’t have much memory of Doi-san bunting, but I think we can relate to him in the sense that he played a solid role as a link. As a Kabuki actor myself, I have played many supporting roles on stage. That’s why when I was offered the role of “Bantman,” I suddenly remembered Mr. Doi, and at the same time, I felt that the role was suitable for me.
–Do you like Senichi Hoshino of the Chunichi Dragons? yes. He’s so strong that Giants fans hate him… When it comes to fighting giants, the fighting spirit is exposed They’re coming towards you. I still haven’t forgotten the painful experiences I experienced (lol). But having such good opponents is what makes baseball so fun. So even though he suffered a lot, in the end he was still my favorite player.

Various sports are popular these days, and professional baseball is Maybe it doesn’t get as much attention as it used to. With this in mind, I hope that “Bantman” will provide an opportunity to enjoy baseball from a different angle. This drama depicts the Japanese way of looking at baseball, which is completely different from Major League Baseball. I would be grateful if you could enjoy that part. The keywords for episode 3 are set upper and stopper Each time, the bunt men use baseball terms to describe the situation their target is in. The keywords this time are “set upper” and “stopper.” A set upper refers to a pitcher who pitches as a middle pitcher when the score is close or tied, and is mainly in charge of the 8th inning. The stopper is then entrusted with the task of closing out the match, and is truly like a guardian angel. How “Set Upper” and “Stopper” are in tonight’s episode 3 I would like you to pay attention to whether he will appear.

Daisho Yanagisawa (Nobuyuki Suzuki) Seiichiro Sakurada (Yajuro Bando) (C) Tokai Television FOD [Episode 3 synopsis] Daisho Yanagisawa (Nobuyuki Suzuki) will participate, and Inning Nine Group’s members are all together. Buntmen. This time’s target is Natsuki Miyahara (Aina Yamada), who has been sighing a lot lately. Yes Natsuki supports an idol group, but the reason is that she can’t go to the upcoming live show. Daisho and his friends speculate. However, as the investigation progresses, it turns out that the reason Natsuki can’t go to the concert is Natsuki’s father, Akinori (Toshiya Toyama). “It’s a suffocating pitcher’s battle, and the one who makes a mistake first loses.” What strategy did the bunt players take after reading the battle situation?
