Boston, MA (PRWEB) June 03, 2015 -- Today, JX Nippon Oil & Energy (JX), parent company of ENEOS, announces its partnership with Junichi Tazawa, pitcher for the Boston Red Sox. As part of this partnership, the ENEOS brand will participate in engagement opportunities with Tazawa, such as the upcoming Tazawa Holds Giveaway, recognizing Tazawa’s ongoing holds status with a weekly progressive prize giveaway, as well as a charitable donation tied to Tazawa’s number of appearances made to the Red Sox Foundation, both of which will take place on ENEOS social media channels.

"...like Tazawa with baseball, we strive to win over the...audience through our dedication to our craft."

Tazawa and ENEOS have a history prior to this partnership. Before joining the Red Sox team, Tazawa played for the JX-ENEOS corporate team in Japan’s amateur leagues, where he was known as one of the best amateur pitchers in Japan. He was recruited by the Red Sox in 2008, making his first appearance in Major League Baseball in 2009.

Since then, Tazawa has been one of the most successful relief pitchers in baseball. Now, Tazawa and ENEOS come full circle to once again regain their partnership.

"I am glad we are able to partner with pitcher Junichi Tazawa, who now plays for the legendary Boston Red Sox. Taking on the challenge of the Major Leagues via one of its most elevated peaks and earning his current position while overcoming a serious injury, I have admired Tazawa for his ability to keep focus on future goals," said ENEOS CEO Motoshi Sunami. "While the name 'ENEOS' is familiar in Japan, it is still less known in the US. But, like Tazawa with baseball, we strive to win over the American audience through our dedication to our craft and by improving lives in a meaningful way. ENEOS is once again supporting Tazawa in the hopes that he can reach his lofty goals, including doubling the number of games he pitches this year."

“I am very happy and honored to be a part of this partnership with ENEOS,” said Tazawa. “As some may know, I played for ENEOS before I turned pro. ENEOS played a very important part in supporting my career as a baseball player. Now that I have achieved part of my goal in becoming a professional baseball player in the Major Leagues, I am thrilled to be able to give back and help support ENEOS in their new endeavors.”

ENEOS is currently the Official Motor Oil of the Boston Red Sox.
