Taiwanese catcher Lyle Lin (Hayashi Ie-Masa), who is participating in Nippon-Ham’ fall training camp as a trial player, spoke about his thoughts on participating in the training on the 1st. “I have a lot of respect for Japanese baseball. My main goal is to learn. I want to learn about NPB and Japanese baseball. I have the impression that Japanese baseball is detailed and gets down to the smallest details. I’m grateful to be able to learn from The Fighters. What I learn will be useful in some way for me in the future. I hope I can share what I’ve cultivated in America with The Fighters’ fans.” On this day, he also took part in batting practice and practiced throw to second base with Tamiya and Shindo.
He moved to the United States from high school and went through Arizona State University, and was catcher selected by the Diamondbacks in the 19th round (422nd overall) in the 19th MLB Draft. In the Premier12 in November last year, he fired the final shot from The Giants Togo to the right field seats, contributing greatly to Taiwan’s victory. The team includes Ruei-Yang Gu Lin and Yi-Lei Sun from the same Taiwan, and he said, “I had heard that The Fighters used (the two) a lot. I definitely want to catch a great pitcher as a catcher in the future. I would be happy if I could form a battery with Gu Lin and Ilei,” he said, dreaming of forming a Taiwanese battery in Japan.
