Alumni banquet “Suntory Dream Match 2025” brings out the voices of legends
The Suntory Dream Match 2025, a banquet for professional baseball legendary alumni, was held at Tokyo Dome on August 4th. By the fourth inning, the Dream Heroes scored eight points, and it was thought that they would be able to stop the 10th straight loss, but after the sixth inning, The Premium Malts team fought back. In the end, the game ended with a 9-9 tie. The heated battle made the fans happy.
The MVPs were Nakajima Hiroyuki (43), the Maltz team, who hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning as his first entry in the “rookie'', and Alex Ramirez (50), the Dream Heroes, who hit a three-run home run for the second consecutive year in the fourth inning, and Nomi Atsushi (46), the Dream Heroes, who performed well in two consecutive rounds in the Super Play Award.
We will bring you the legends' post-match voices.

MVP: “Is it okay to get this award as a rookie?”
★Mr. Nakajima Hiroyuki
Nakajima hit a two-run home run with the top of the 9th inning, with The Premium Malts team not outs and no outs and a runner up to left field.
―MVP
I'm happy.
-The first time I'm a rookie and MVP
I'm a rookie and I'm wondering if it's okay to come and receive this award for the first time.
-There were some noisy seniors, right?

That's not the case (lol).
-The moment he hits, he tied the game at left center for two runs
I ran because I wanted him to go. But it felt nice, so I thought maybe it would go in.
-An take from Nomi
I was struck out in my previous at-bat, so I thought I'd like to hit it somehow.
-As a baseball player, a greeting
