Tomoyuki Kanno, who used to play for the Tokyo Yomiuri Giants and now plays for the Baltimore Golden Orioles, started on the board in the team's visit to the Seattle Mariners today (4th), and finally handed over a high-quality starting good pitch that only conceded 1 point in 7 innings, and closed the 5th win of the season, and after the game, Tomoyuki Kanno said about Shigeo Nagashima, who passed away due to pneumonia a few days ago, "I can't express my feelings in words, and I have always been cared for by him, which is really regrettable."
According to Japanese media reports, Tomoyuki Kanno, who was the ace of the giants in the past, paid special tribute to Shigeo Nagashima, the lifelong honorary superintendent of the giants, and Tomoyuki Kanno said: "I really can't express my feelings in words. Ever since I was a kid, I've wanted to play for the Giants and have been watching games supervised by Nagashima. Ever since I joined the team, he has always cared about me and given me a lot of words of encouragement every time we met. It's a shame."
Tomoyuki Kanno also revealed that he learned about Nagashima's death from his mobile phone, and the last time he saw Nagashima was at a fan club last year, "I think he is like a symbol of Japanese professional baseball, and for players who play baseball in Japan, no one does not know him. Of course, his legacy is outstanding, but most importantly, he's a true pro and a supervisor, and that's what he shows through the game."
Tomoyuki Kanno made a total of 90 shots in seven innings and scored five hits, including Rowdy Tellez's Yang Chun Cannon and conceded only one point, as well as a 5K and one four-bad run to concede a point.
