CPBL's 'Loss King' Sets Team's Worst Record, Fires Back at Family Curses: 'Come at Me Directly'

Rakuten Monkeys foreign pitcher Dylan File is facing a difficult season, having set a franchise record for the fastest seven losses. File suffered his seventh defeat in just nine starts during a game against the TSG Hawks, a performance marred by a disastrous first inning where his team's defense faltered, allowing five runs.

Whatever you say, I don't care, but don't involve my family. You keep hiding behind your keyboard, if you have any issues, come at me directly.

Following the game, File took to social media to address online commenters who had resorted to cursing his family. He posted a strong rebuttal on Threads, directly tagging a user and stating, "Whatever you say, I don't care, but don't involve my family. You keep hiding behind your keyboard, if you have any issues, come at me directly."

I don't mind people criticizing me or my pitching performance. I am actually the strictest person with myself, and I am not satisfied with my pitching.

File further elaborated on his stance, emphasizing that he can handle criticism of his pitching performance. "I don't mind people criticizing me or my pitching performance. I am actually the strictest person with myself, and I am not satisfied with my pitching," he wrote. However, he drew a firm line at threats against his family: "But bringing players' families into it, or even cursing them to have bad things happen, that's too much."
