It was a fastball that felt like a rocket had been launched. Tamura of Seibu appeared on Live BP and announced himself as the new guardian deity. “I was waving my arm and it was thrown to me. I realized that it is the number of a guardian angel. I want to aim for this with all my might.” Starting this season, he changed his uniform number to 20, which belonged to his former guardian, Kiyoshi Toyoda (current pitching coach), and it was the first time he faced a batter. A total of 26 balls for 5 people. He hit half the pitches with fastballs and his hitability was zero.
There is data called “hop component” that quantifies pitch growth. It shows how far the ball does not drop from the time it is thrown until it reaches the catcher, compared to a ball that drops naturally. The average length for professional baseball is about 18 inches, and Tamura’s fastball was among the best in the high 18-inch range. The steed’s personal fastest speed was 151 km/h, and while his fastest speed that day was 144 km/h, he also stole a whiff of Sumiya with a high fastball.
As the video was uploaded, a new domestic rocket, the H3, launched from the Tanegashima Space Center about 130 kilometers away, and he was surprised to see the cloud of rockets, saying, “I saw it.” . The owner, Takashi Goto, who came for the inspection, is the chairman of the government’s space policy committee. After giving instructions to the players, he gave the command V. Tamura, whose permed hair resembles the older brother of the main characters of the manga “Space Brothers”, laughs and says: “My hairdresser gives me the best perm that suitable for my length”. Since injuring his right shoulder in 2022, he has revamped the connection between his lower and upper body and is now equipped with a “rocket fastball.” In his eighth year, he targets the guardian deity in a fierce battle with Kaino, Masuda, Abreu and others.

“Midnight is day!? Manager Osamu Kazuo recalls his time with the Astros≫ In 2008, when manager Matsui was with the Astros, he visited the space shuttle launch in Florida. The launch occurred at 3 a.m. while he was in campground, but looked back fondly and said, “The moment we got on, it was amazing. (The gaslight jet) turned everything into daylight.” This time he could see a cloud of rockets at Nango and said with a smile, “I’m glad we made it.”
