"It's time for baseballpers!" said Yoshiki.

Yoshiki was also given a signed jersey of two Japanese film stars, Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, as well as a special jersey for him himself with number 44.

"It is an honor to speak with Ohtani and Yamamoto, who also live in LA. I received a jersey signed from both of them. In addition, I was surprised to receive a jersey with my own name from my own name from my late 58", said the 58-year-old musician.

After meeting Ohtani and Yamamoto, I feel grateful and inspired to face the world. I am happy because apart from Hello Kitty,yoshikitty has also come to play the American national anthem twice because of voice problems," he continued.

"Immediately after I heard the loud applause after performing, I'm happy to have done my best, including improvised. It's not in vain to return to LA, even though the schedule is very tight. Thank you everyone," Yoshiki concluded.
