My Take
Junya Nishi's path is anything but a straight line: a kid from Hatsukaichi in Hiroshima who crossed into Okayama for high school ball at Soshi Gakuen, and now pitches for the Hanshin Tigers. What sticks with me is his registered name. He plays as Nishi Jun, one character shorter than the name he was born with, and trimming your own name before you step on the mound reads to me like quiet resolve. Born in 2001, he is still unfinished, and that is exactly why I keep watching.
