I have a quick correction to make to something I said in the podcast. In talking about TNO sitting out the past couple of games, I mistakenly said that it was a hamstring pull. I cannot find the source that I got that from, but all sources I see say it was a strain in his right knee (右膝に張り). I apologize for any confusion I may have caused.

Hey John, thanks for getting to my question. I was surprised to hear journalists weren't allowed into the club house and then all that stuff about submitting questions in advance. Anyway, glad that you get treated the same as the Japanese press. Sounds like you're quite the novelty because of your Japanese ability. Nice work!

Hello, Mookster.

Thank you very much for the question. We certainly appreciate it. We're new at this, but we'll try to make it an interesting program. We can only do it with suggestions and comments from the audience.

Many thanks.....
