Fighting together at WBC “I was able to see a little trailer”
Red Sox outfielder Masanao Yoshida is increasing his presence in the majors with his dependable bat. From the 12th (13th Japan time), they will play three games in a row against the Cardinals, who belongs to outfielder Lars Nootvar, who fought together in the WBC. The comrade-in-arms said that he had a premonition of Yoshida’s dynamism before the opening, saying, “It’s not a surprise to me.”
In an article for the Cardinals’ hometown St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Nootvar said of Yoshida, “It’s clear he’s a special player. I think he’s proven that this season. It was a very special experience to be able to see a little trailer for . He noted that former Orix forward Adam Jones described him as “Japan’s Juan Soto,” but nodded that he “had no doubts at all” that he would be an above-average hitter in the majors.
Nutevar, who has strengthened his ties with Japan through the WBC, has been interacting with Angels pitcher Shohei Otani, Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki, and Mariners Ichiro on the field this season. Regarding Yoshida, who has been reunited since March, “He seems a little taciturn. But I’m glad I was able to spend a lot of time with him.” It was nice to get to know him. He’s a great guy.
Since the Japanese players are older, Nutvar goes to greet them every time before the game. “I like that tradition,” he said with a smile when he was taken care of by a younger person. “It’s a way to show respect. I want to cherish it.”
