El ex lanzador de Grandes Ligas Daisuke Matsuzaka le puso fin a una carrera de 23 años como lanzador profesional el sábado por la noche con una ceremonia de retiro en el MetLife Dome de Saitama, Japón, la cual contó con la participación de Ichiro Suzuki.
Los Saitama Seibu Lions anunciaron en julio que Matsuzaka tenía previsto retirarse tras concluir la campaña del Béisbol Profesional Nipón. El diestro fue operado de la columna vertebral en el 2020 y al momento de anunciarse su retiro se informaba que aún padecía entumecimiento en la mano de lanzar.
“Estoy contento de que pude seguir jugando béisbol hasta que ya no pude hacer tiros normales al final”, le dijo Matsuzaka a los fans el sábado, según Kyodo News.
Suzuki, quien jugó con Matuszaka en la selección japonesa que ganó los Clásicos Mundiales del 2006 y el 2009 y fue oponente del serpentinero en Japón y Grandes Ligas, apareció en un video antes de salir al montículo a entregarle un ramo de flores a Matsuzaka.
“No me imagine esto. Fue una locura”, expresó Matsuzaka. “Al principio me pude contener, pero luego vinieron las lágrimas y ya no tenía salida.
“Estaba sorprendido y simplemente encantado que, al final, Ichiro-san me vino a ver. Estoy feliz que puede llegar tan lejos”.
Apodado Dice-K, Matsuzaka lanzó por los Medias Rojas del 2007 al 2012. Boston le pagó a los Leones US$51.1 millones por el derecho de negociar con el monticular bajo el antiguo acuerdo entre las dos ligas y luego lo firmaron por seis años y US$52 millones en diciembre del 2006.
La llegada de Matsuzaka a Grandes Ligas causó sensación, ya que el diestro había elaborado ocho temporadas excepcionales por los Leones de 1996-2006 y había sido el Jugador Más Valioso de la selección japonesa durante el primer Clásico Mundial de Béisbol.
Matsuzaka tuvo marca de 15-12 con promedio de carreras limpias de 4.40 y 201 ponches en 204.2 innings en su campaña de novato y ayudó a Boston a ganar la Serie Mundial del 2007. La siguiente temporada, dejó foja de 18-3 con efectividad de 2.90 en 167.2 entradas trabajadas y terminó en el cuarto lugar en la votación para el Premio Cy Young de la Liga Americana.
Sin embargo, durante los últimos cuatro años de su contrato con Boston, Matuszaka promedió apenas 74 entradas de labor por temporada y tuvo promedio de carreras limpias de 5.53 antes de integrarse a los Mets por dos temporadas. Por Nueva York, tuvo efectividad de 4.06 en 41 presentaciones, incluyendo 16 aperturas.
Matsuzaka luego regresó a Japón y lanzó por los Fukuoka Softbank Hawks (2015-17) y los Chunichi Dragons (2018-19) antes de volver con los Lions, por quienes apenas una presentación en dos campañas antes de optar por retirarse.
