<h2>Satteru got angry.</h2>
<p> The Hanshin baseball team finished second in the Central League regular season, just behind the Giants, who won the league championship for the first time in four years. Teruaki Sato, 25, the team&#8217;s leading infielder, caused a stir among fans after the game between Yakult and Hanshin at Jingu Stadium on September 28.</p>

<p><span class="strongInContent"> The post-game interview at Jingu Stadium takes place inside the grounds, and a video of Sato, surrounded by several reporters, expressing his anger at one reporter was spread on X. The video was filmed in the same way as the one that was filmed at Jingu Stadium in Tokyo, and it was shown in the same way as the one that was shown at the game. The video also shows Sato pulling away from the reporter, but then turning back and walking up to the reporter again. Fans and media were in an uproar. Sato is the type of person who does not usually show his anger, so I was honestly surprised.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> What was the cause of the commotion, which was the subject of much speculation on the Internet? A reporter who was covering the event reveals the truth.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The person with whom Satteter was obviously dissatisfied was a Hanshin reporter from Daily Sports. It seems that the reason was a report about a play in the second inning of a game that took place on the same day. In the first at bat of the second inning, Satotel hit a brilliant double down the left field line. While the next batter grounded out to shortstop, Satotel advanced to third base. However, with one out and a runner at third base, Ryutaro Umeno (33) lined the ball to shortstop, and Satoteru was unable to get home on it, resulting in a double homer.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> The Daily Sports, a popular site for the &#8220;Tiger Party,&#8221; carried an article about the incident on its website. &#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The article was posted on Yahoo News at 6:44 p.m. The headline read, &#8220;Hanshin&#8217;s Teruaki Sato hits a double, but makes a painful baserunning error; Umeno&#8217;s liner flies out for a double play; Manager Okada looks grim; Liner-back required. It was reported that Satoteru, a runner, made a mistake.</span></p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" What was the truth behind the incident?"></div>
<p>After the game, however, manager Akifu Okada (66) <span class="strongInContent">explained</span> the intent of the strategy <span class="strongInContent">: &#8220;You can&#8217;t go back because it&#8217;s Gorogo. It&#8217;s a sign, so it&#8217;s impossible (to return to base).</span> It <span class="strongInContent">&#8216;s not good to hit a liner on Gorogo&#8217;s sign,&#8221;</span> he said, revealing that Umeno, not Sato, failed to bat as instructed.</p>
<p> The headline of the article was quickly changed to <span class="strongInContent">&#8220;Hanshin&#8217;s Teruaki Sato doubles, but Umeno hits a liner to left field for a double play</span>. The manager lifted the &#8220;war criminal&#8221; treatment of Sato.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Satoteru apparently heard about it. The title of the article has been corrected, but he was offended to know that he was treated as a war criminal by the media on their own speculation, even though he had acted as he had signed.</span><span class="strongInContent"> He was offended by the media&#8217;s speculation that he had been treated as a war criminal, even though he had acted as he had signed. So, after the game, he apparently confronted the Daily&#8217;s reporter at the press conference, saying, &#8220;Next time, please be careful. Actually, the situation was not as heated as fans might imagine, and Sattel was not that angry. But it was a bad time to lose a game and lose the championship, so he might have raised his voice a little.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> There was also information spread on X that Sato got angry when a reporter from Daily asked him what he thought about a game lost due to Sato&#8217;s error. The truth is that &#8220;Sato, who was treated as a war criminal by Daily&#8217;s speculation, expressed his dissatisfaction with the reporter&#8217;s report.</span></p>
<p> The next day, Sato hit a two-run triple in the seventh inning against DeNA to win a wild game. It is a relief, at least, that the dispute with the media did not affect his performance.</p>
