 Thanks, Masa and Shingo for being here. What we'll do is we'll take questions in English. Shingo will translate and then we'll pivot to Japanese So we'll start with questions in English All right, we'll start with Anthony to your right guys Masa here, I think your your last regular season start here. You talked about how it was playoff like intensity facing This lineup in this ballpark. So what is more than playoff like intensity? Is there such a thing? Well, I think it was said that there is something close to the playoff atmosphere I imagine that there will be something more than that, from today on, from today on That's right Well, I don't think I've ever had that kind of experience I don't think I've ever been in a place where Yankees and Red Sox will playoff I don't know what kind of atmosphere it is, but I'm sure it's going to be amazing You know, I think I have an idea that it's going to be intense But me personally, I haven't you know experienced the Yankees versus Red Sox Playoff atmosphere yet. So You know at this point, it's a guess, but I'm sure it's going to be intense Oh, sorry go to your right guys I know this is your first time in the postseason against the Red Sox But are there memories of watching the Yankees Red Sox from 1999 or 03 or 04? There's just so much history here. Is it an honor? Do you have memories of it? And how much of an honor is it to be a part of it? Well, the Yankees Red Sox from 1999 or 03 or 04, so I've been playing in the playoff Do you have any memories of watching the game and watching it? Well, I've seen it on TV I've seen it on TV in the past So to answer your first question, yes, I have watched the Red Sox Yankees game on television on broadcast And your second question was how you feel about going into this rivalry, this historic rivalry What do you have the honor to be a part of this season? Do you have the honor to be a part of the Yankees Red Sox playoff? It's definitely an honor to be part of something like this. I think it would be even better if I could go out there and perform And lead the team to a victory Dan in the center The success that you had in those three starts in the postseason last year, is that something that you can apply to this postseason? Or is it not the same thing? Is that experience helpful this time around? The success experience of the last three games in the playoff last year is something that you can apply to this year Or is it something new this year? I think it's definitely more of an experience than success But I think it's bigger this year I think that experience does help and maybe you rely on it a little bit But my mentality right now is just go into this postseason freshly As a new experience, yes, thanks Dan Anything else in English? I'll take one last one, English was the sweetie Masahiro, when you look at your starts, what is the difference for you personally when you are sharp and good and when things get away from you? When I look back at my first shot and look at it, the difference between good and bad is different It may be different depending on the game, but in general, what is the difference? I think it's aggressiveness I think when I'm on my game, when I'm doing well out there, I feel like I'm being able to really focus on the matchup And being aggressive there You talked about the splitter not being as sharp as you wanted to be the last couple of starts What were you able to do since your last start and do you feel better about where the pitch is right now? I don't know, I think I said I wasn't in a good spirit after the last game But I think I was able to make a good adjustment during the last game How do you feel about the current spirit? From the last game, I had a lot of time to adjust I feel like I can show you what I'm good at in the next game I think it's at a good place right now Since I had my last outing, it's been a while, so I had that time to make the necessary adjustments I think I like where my splitter is at this time Hopefully I can have that pitch with me tomorrow when I go into the game Shingo, thank you very much, I appreciate it We'll take questions in Japanese now We'll start right over here to Masa's left You've experienced a lot of short-term matches so far You've done a lot of good last year, so I'd like to ask you again Is there anything you need to be careful about in the face of the short-term match? Last time, after finishing the World Cards game What I can do is not change because I'm on this stage I think I should be able to focus on what I can do I think I should be able to focus on what I can do And your left If it's a regular season, I think I'll aim for a 7-8 win Recently, both teams have been fighting in the playoffs The first game was very fast, so I'm looking forward to it Will you be able to get into the game tomorrow? I think there are a lot of things to fight about But I don't feel like I'm flying from the outside I think I should be able to get into the game with my own balance I'd like to take out everything I have What's your opinion? I think it's hard to get out of the season Especially the top players in the past They're all in the 5th place Is there any impression that the top player is one of the key players? Also, I don't think you need to talk about the game But I think it's hard to get out of the game There are a lot of things to think about Of course, I don't have anything to say But I don't think there's anything to talk about
