"Dear viewers of Nippon Professional Baseball, welcome to the decisive round of the 2016 Pacific League Climax Series! I am your commentator for today, Kaji Yagyu, and beside me is a guest that friends from Kyushu will surely recognize, the official catcher during Fukuoka Daiei Hawks' golden era and the only superstar in Asia to have served as a regular catcher in the Major League, Shiroyama Kenshi!"
As the official start time of the match approached, the studio at the Yahoo Dome, with TVQ Kyushu Broadcasting also began their work: To demonstrate the station's importance on today's game, they specifically invited the retired ace commentator Kaji Yagyu, and even asked Shiroyama Kenshi to serve as the guest.
However, this arrangement had a bit of a hidden agenda: The representative work of the former's commentary career was precisely the match where the Daiei Hawks defeated the Hanshin Tigers 4-3 in the 2003 Japan Series; the latter was also an eyewitness to that series.
