Triple Crown's Monster Big Gun

NPB announced on the 14th, "As a result of the 'Plus One' vote to select the last one to play in the 2023 All-Star Game, Trevor Bauer (Yokohama DeNA BayStars) in the Central League and Yoshinobu Yamamoto (Orix Buffaloes) in the Pacific League have been decided to play." The "Plus One" vote is an NPB-specific All-Star selection system in which players participate in each category of fan voting, inter-player voting, and manager recommendation are decided, and then a fan vote is held once again with the last spot.

The last players to board this year's "Plus One" vote are "Ace" Yamamoto and "Mischievous" Bauer, who represent NPB. Yamamoto has 8 wins, 3 losses, and a 1.79 ERA this season, ranking first in multiple wins and second in ERA in the Pacific League. However, in the All-Star vote, he was not selected due to the "monster" Roki Sasaki (22, Chiba Lotte Marines), and he confirmed his participation in the All-Star Game after a plus-one vote.

Bauer, a former Cy Young Award player who received a lot of attention in his first year in the NPB, has a somewhat normal performance in the league with 6 wins, 2 losses, and a 3.67 ERA this season. However, he finished adjusting by winning the monthly MVP with four wins and an unbeaten ERA of 2.08 in four games in June. When Bauer was nominated for "Plus One," he encouraged fans to vote on his Twitter account and expressed his desire to play in the All-Star Game.

Murakami, who was nominated side by side as Bauer took the last ticket for "Plus One," failed to play in the All-Star Game. Murakami became the league's best hitter last year, achieving the youngest triple crown (batting average, home run, RBI) with a batting average of 0.318 56 home runs, 134 RBIs, and an OPS of 1.168. 토토 Murakami, who set the record for the most home runs in a season by a Japanese batter, signed a huge three-year contract worth 1.8 billion yen (about 16.4 billion won) even though he is not an FA after the end of last season.

However, this season's performance does not match all-time salaries and fans' expectations. He played in 80 games until the 14th, recording a sluggish performance with a batting average of 0.233, 15 home runs, 44 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.793. Murakami suffered the humiliation of ranking fourth out of five candidates in the All-Star Game fan vote. In the "Plus One" vote, he remained in second place, about 330,000 votes behind Bauer, who received 369,446 votes with 32,818 low votes. The difference in the number of votes, which is nearly 11 times, is a humiliation for Murakami, who is considered Japan's best big gun.
