Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (31) did some voluntary training on the 6th (7th Japan time) at a camp facility in Mesa, Arizona. Suzuki, who arrived in Arizona a few days ago, arrived at the facility at 9:40 a.m. After completing their training indoors, they took to the field to pitch, run, and catch the ball, increasing the distance of their long throws to up to 80 meters. This season, there is a high possibility that he will be assigned as the right winger rather than the DH, and he pitched carefully in the warm, 26-degree weather, paying careful attention to the rotation of the ball. After that, they practiced batting in an indoor cage for about 50 minutes. There appears to be no problem with the adjustment as the WBC season is scheduled to begin in about a month. He had the bitter experience of being selected for Samurai Japan three years ago but had to give up playing right before he injured his left side, so this spring he will slowly and carefully make adjustments.
