Taisei Urushihara

Taisei Urushihara, born September 10, 1996, pitched for the Orix Buffaloes and then the Hanshin Tigers before retiring after the 2025 season. Professional pitching is a job where standing changes by the outing, and the gap between a name the whole country knows and a name only the diehards know can come down to a handful of innings. Hanshin is also a particularly unforgiving and particularly generous stage — their supporters are among the most attentive in Japanese sport, and a pitcher who delivers in a tight game becomes a household name in that city almost overnight. Since 2026 he has coached at the Tigers' youth academy.
