Tomoyo Shibata (柴田 倫世 Shibata Tomoyo?, born December 23, 1974 in Chikushino, Fukuoka, Japan, official name Tomoyo Matsuzaka) is a former announcer for Nippon TV in Japan.

Shibata is the wife of Boston Red Sox pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka. They met during the 2000 Sydney Olympics, married in 2005, and have one daughter. [1]

With her husband now employed by the Red Sox, Shibata will reportedly seek broadcasting and modeling opportunities in the United States. [2]

While secretly dating in 2000, Shibata became embroiled in a national scandal with Matsuzaka. During an overnight visit, Matsuzaka illegally parked his car outside Shibata's home. His car was towed, and the details of the story caused a scandal, embarrassing Matsuzaka and his team, the Seibu Lions. [3]
