Drawing from his background as a baseball-loving youth, Toshihide Baba has created many baseball-related songs.

His track “Saigo Made” (“Until the End”) expresses the determination to keep running toward the goal you envision, no matter what happens.

With seniors gone and a new lineup heading into the spring Senbatsu, you’ll likely face many obstacles that differ from the past.

Even so, this song gives you the courage to keep striving toward victory and toward each person’s individual goals without giving up.

Just as the title says, if you fight with everything you’ve got ‘until the end,’ you’re sure to find the light!
