Darvish “I am a husband before I am a baseball player” Touching his ex-wife and child … “What happened?”

Pitcher Yu Darvish (36) of the Japanese national baseball team “Samurai Japan” appeared in Yutaka Takagi’s YouTube video. He said, “Meeting my current wife in America was a big part of my change,” and there was a scene where he touched on his ex-wife and her family. In a one-on-one talk, Mr. Takagi admired Darvish’s growth. “Naughty Darvish rushed out (to the United States) and rehabilitated…” made me laugh, “What happened to taking care of my family?”

Darvish took the topic straight, saying, “When I was younger, there were a lot of things I did that I would be embarrassed to think about even now.” Then, in response to Mr. Takagi’s “What happened?”, he asked his current wife, former wrestling world champion Seiko Yamamoto, their children, and “I was married before, so I have children.” ‘ continued.

“While I regretted various things at that point, my current wife taught me various things, but because of that, I misunderstood that I was a valuable person, but that’s not it. I’ve gradually come to understand, and there are many things that I’m bad at that have cleared up.”

Mr. Takagi’s wife was also present at this shooting, and said, “(Darvish) said, ‘I am a husband before I am a baseball player,’ and I was moved by his words.”

After experiencing the majors, getting married and raising children, Darvish said, “I can deeply understand that it’s not natural for people around me to support me even when I’m playing baseball.” “This is the way the WBC is approaching this time,” he said, just like a first-class major leaguer.
