On July 13th, Ginji and Kaneko Yuji appeared on Pacific League TV official YouTube channel's "Monday, Go to Patele," and Tohoku Rakuten Eagles... McCusker We analyzed the factors behind the players' good performance.

On July 10th, in a game against Fukuoka Softbank, McCusker had a spectacular performance with 3 Home Run and 4 RBI, contributing to win. The following day, he hit his 11th solo home run, and is currently on a roll with a monthly batting average of .375. When asked by a viewer about the reason for McCusker's good form, Ginji immediately replied, "He's got the timing right," and offered the following analysis.

"I think the ball appears longer. Before, when I went to hit the ball, it felt like my upper body followed my left foot when it touched the ground, but now, when my left foot touches the ground, my upper body is still behind, so the ball appears longer. I think this is the reason for my good form."

Yuji Kaneko also looked convinced, saying, "That's a good analysis." In response to a question from the program staff, "Is McCusker aware of that?", Ginji speculated, "I think he's going into it with a good image in mind right now. I think he has the awareness that 'if I focus on this, this will happen.'"
