Now, Japanese baseball is getting a lot of attention. Not only Otani's success, but also Yu Darvish, who achieved 200 wins in Japan and the US, and Seiya Suzuki, who hit 20 home runs for two consecutive years, are attracting a lot of attention. Yusei Kikuchi, who became a free agent from the Astros, signed a big contract with the Angels.
