Tamura commented, "I have the honor of participating in the ceremonial first pitch. This is my first time in such an event, so I am very nervous, but as someone who grew up listening to 'Burning Dragons' in the Tokai region, it is the greatest joy for me. I will do my best, however small, to liven up the day!"
