The Tokyo Yakult Swallows are not having the type of year they expected, but it will take a lot more than that to shake the faith infielder Jose Osuna has in his club.
The Swallows’ bid to win a third straight Central League pennant crashed almost as soon as it got off the ground, but Osuna is confident there are better days ahead.
“We are the same team,” Osuna told The Japan Times from the visitors’ dugout at Tokyo Dome. “We have to fight to bring everything together again.”
