In the second inning, strike out from Tatsumi with a high straight
■ Rakuten 3-0 Nippon-Ham (21st, Akita)
Nippon-Ham Fighter Kosei Yoshida started the Rakuten match at the local Akita Komachi Stadium on the 21st. It’s a match sponsored by Rakuten, but the stands have a lot of support for Yoshida. It was a mound since the summer four years ago, when he was the ace of gold-footed farming, and although he showed growth in the early stages, he dropped out with 4 hits and 2 runs in the middle of the 5th inning. I couldn’t take full advantage of the “last chance” that Tsuyoshi Shinjo told me, and I suffered my second defeat this season.
In the Hanshin game on the 5th, which started last time, he scored 4 goals in 3 innings at Koshien, where he became a hero. A local mound was prepared as a place for humiliation. At the first time, Asamura was allowed to hit the fence directly to the left, but due to the good play of the left wing Kimura, there was no goal. In the second and second deaths, Tatsumi was struck out with a high straight ball.
It was a no-goal pitch until the 4th inning, but it went dark from the point where he allowed the middle front hit after the first silver in the 5th inning. He hit Ota with a two-point timely first on the second and third bases, and the big boss left the bench when he allowed Muto to hit the right front. He didn’t reach the fifth inning and was disappointed, but the stand gave a big applause.
