MIKI HOUSEThe hardball baseball club welcomes Kikuta, who has a powerful play and energetic playing style, as a new member, and together with fellow new player Yuki Takahashi, formerly of the Yomiuri Giants, we will work towards becoming the best in Japan at the Intercity Baseball Tournament and Japan Amateur Baseball Championship.

[Comment from Hirokazu Kikuta himself]

This time,MIKI HOUSEI decided to join the company after forming a relationship with the baseball club.
When I participated in practice, I got the impression that the team was very bright and energetic. It matched my characteristic of being energetic, and it made me want to play baseball with this team.
Also, the level of adult baseball is very high, and I think it's a stage where I can improve myself in my future baseball career.
I have experienced a lot of things as a professional, but I want to make the most of it and do my best to win the Japan Intercity Championship.
