Seiya Suzuki’s uniform number 27 is named after the trout
Outfielder Mike Trout of the Angels sent a love call “return” to the Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki, who had the same uniform number 27 as himself, saying, “I saw the video. I’m looking forward to seeing him.” ..
This is a reaction to the scene where Suzuki answered “Mike Trout. I love you” when asked why he chose the number 27 at the Cubs press conference on the 18th (19th Japan time). Suzuki’s words invited laughter and became a hot topic.
Traut said he had seen the footage of Suzuki’s press conference and said, “I’m looking forward to seeing him. I’ve heard about his greatness and talked with (Otani) Shohei and (interpreter Suwon) Ippei. I’ve heard that he’s a great baseball player. (Seiya Suzuki’s remarks at the press conference) were awesome, “he said, recognizing the existence of a star candidate from Japan.
When asked if he had seen Suzuki play, he asked Shohei a few days ago, “Which team does he sign with?”, But his answer is wrong. “Tane,” he invited the press to laugh.
Trout made his first appearance in the open match against Diamondbacks on the 19th (20th) with “4th midfielder” and 2 hits in 2 at bats. He got off to a good start in the break-down season.
