The unconventional genius Tsuyoshi Shinjo and the theoretical ace Yu Darvish. These two seemingly opposite people have a deep bond that spans 20 years. 2005 — Shinjo was the one who saved rookie Darvish from being isolated from the team due to a smoking scandal. Shinjo called him “Aru-chan” and supported him thoroughly from his personal life to his professional mindset. Darvish then grew into a top player in Japan and MLB. Fast forward to 2020, when Shinjo tries out at the age of 48, Darvish is the first to send words of support. “Even if it’s 99% impossible, anyone is qualified to take on the challenge.” Those words became the starting point for Shinjo to take over as manager. In 2021, Shinjo, who was appointed as the director of BIGBOSS, once again sends a message to Darvish. “Let’s play baseball together!” Although it didn’t happen right away, Darvish will finally visit Escon Field, the home base of the Nippon-Ham, in 2024. The exchanges on social media, the enthusiasm between fans and players–maybe it was a foreshadowing of a future reunion. This video fully introduces the unknown story of these two people and the trajectory of their bond in chronological order. 🔽 Characters Tsuyoshi Shinjo (BIGBOSS) | Nippon Ham manager/former major leaguer Yu Darvish | Padres member/Japanese baseball’s proud ace 🔽 Hot topics The pachinko smoking incident, Shinjo’s relief tryout, and behind the scenes of BIGBOSS’s appointment The true meaning of Darvish’s visit to Escon Concerts What is the possibility of a future “co-starring together”? #Takashi Shinjo #Yu Darvish #BIGBOSS #Professional Baseball #Nichi-Ham #Esconfield #Padres #Director Appointment #Baseball Story #Inspiring True Story #Fighters #Baseball Quotes
