Hanshin Tigers name Kenji Yano first-team hitting coach

Original: 矢野謙次

The Hanshin Tigers have appointed Kenji Yano, who left the Yomiuri Giants, as their first-team head hitting coach. The club held an introductory press conference, which was covered on its official site. Reports say Katsuo Hirata, previously second-team manager, has been moved to head coach. Attention is also on Yano's move from the Giants and on related coaching changes, including Giants coach Kazunari Minemitsu applying to leave at the end of the season.

Why now: Hanshin just announced a high-profile coaching hire from rival Yomiuri, prompting an introductory press conference and heavy Japanese sports media coverage.
