Third time worked. Kataoka agreed to become a batting coach for the Tigers focusing on clutch hitting. Tigers management and Mayumi were clearly delighted to get his agreement. He will wear 88 and indicated that he wanted to improve Toritani and Lin's batting performance. Lin he felt was wasted through inactivity and Toritani can get better.

Toritani finished strong, but he is a streaky hitter. Hopefully Kataoka can make him more consistent.
