Bacon for the baseball. Much better than criquet.
Sad for the rocket.

Otani is a member of my hometown baseball team, the Anaheim Angels (we native Orange Countians refuse to use the Los Angeles prefix).

Also my Wife's home team. Unfortunately I do not know if my Tigers or your Angles will be worse this year? Hoping both make a big turn around to over 500 base ball this year.

Otoni is amazing IMO.

I keep hoping - I'm a lifelong California Angels Fan no matter how good or bad of a season they have.

My only regret, is that Gene Autrey didn't live long enough to see them win the World Series.

I used to go and cheer the Angels at Anaheim when I lived in California. Unless they were playing the Yanks. My co-workers refused to go with me as I got REALLY loud and many objects got hurled our way.

A Japanese isolated nationalist under heavy fire.

As former Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications, she is said suggested the revocation of license against several left-wing broadcasters at an official meeting. Documents exist as official evidence but -

She relied on Abe only in LDP.
I have ever met her 40 years before when she was going to be a politician.
My impression was she was tall and modest with less vocabulary.

S.Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol is visiting Japan with his wife from the day before yesterday.
Unlike the presidents from his country in the past, he looks making himself at home as though ordinary Korean tourists.
Probably, he is an honest man unlike ordinary politicians.

Yes as he instantly stepped aside.

Wishing victory, PM Kishida presented Zelensky a giant rice spoon as his hometown souvenir.
That should have been a sword in this case IMO.

Why be bellicose with Russia? Hopefully Japan will get the Sakhalin Islands back. Present a katana to the President of Taiwan.

Kishida would have minded Putin's impression as Putin presented a Japanese sword which was once confiscated by the Allies to Abe in 2017.
A rice spoon would be his nice sense as a former minister of forein affairs in the Abe administration.

Kishida is not so popular with Japanese people as Abe but I remember that Abe trusted him as a reliable generalist.

Japanese private company's unmanned lunar landing module will land on the moon on April 26.
However, few pay attention to this news. This is the 21st century I thought as a kid

MSN

That's way cool. I'm surprised that hasn't been publicized more.

When Japanese Briton novelist Kazuo Ishiguro was awarded Nobel Prize in 2017, Japanese media/government paid little attention.
Important factor for them is "genuine" Japanese to achieve something. Naomi Osaka is treated same.

Somehow, a Lunar landing is an accomplishment worthy of attention.
