It is literally 'romantic lethal dose'. In 2025, a man responsible for three wins in the seven-game World Series was born.
In addition, the pitcher who pitched six innings in Game 6 the previous day took the mound in relief in Game 7 the next day to secure the team's victory. It's a movie-like reality more than a movie, and it's a touching movie directed by Yoshinobu Yamamoto and the LA Dodgers.
Game 7 of this World Series contained so much. The Dodgers have won the World Series for the first time in 25 years since the New York Yankees lost three games in a row in 1998-2000??C. By country, the three Japanese guns that led to Shohei Ohtani, Yamamoto, and Roki Sasaki won the championship against the U.S.-Canada coalition.
However, the main character was not Ohtani, contrary to everyone's expectations. Yamamoto, the real ace's mind that boldly takes the mound for a team in crisis, completed the team's victory with desperation that he had never shown even in Koshien during his school days. It was also a miraculous turnaround for the Dodgers, which had been driven to two wins and three losses.

"When I just started playing baseball, when I first stood on the mound, I didn't have a major league in my head, let alone an NPB. There was just no pitcher on our team, and I was the only one to throw. I've come this far since I've been holding out day by day. The boy talked to me. 'Hero? Savior? Stop thinking about that! I was saying, 'Just throw it!'
Yamamoto surprised Roberts by taking the mound even after completely pitching in the second game a day earlier in Game 3, when he had a bloody battle in the 18th inning. At that time, when Freddie Freeman's winning home run hit in the bottom of the 18th inning, Yamamoto did not take the mound.
Yamamoto made preparations for Game 7 on the last day of the game "Just after Game 6 ended. "I healed my body and practiced for a game in case I came to my senses and I was standing on the mound."," he recalled.

Last year, when Yamamoto left for the U.S. via posting, the original team Orix Buffaloes "I'll miss you a lot. I honestly don't want him to leave, but I still want to see Yamamoto performing on a big stage," he said, expressing enthusiastic support.
"Go away, (Yamamoto)Sinobu, to the point where we can't reach. Prove that Japan is the strongest in the world. Orix's cheer finally reached the end of the sky.
"I don't know how I'll be judged in this World Series when my career is over. But I don't care. Yamamoto threw the ball for a team in crisis, that's enough. I don't want to be a player who turns a blind eye to the team because it's on the brink of a cliff."
