Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan.

In order to promote the U18 team, Miyazaki Prefecture Takano Company formed a high school selection team and summoned players from various baseball schools in the prefecture.

Miyazaki Saint-Marrior Baseball Stadium.

Zhuangxing Trial: High School Team VS Miyazaki Selection Team.

This is the fourth game that started with the Tokyo training camp and the last practice competition before the Asian Youth Games.

Superintendent Yuji Nagata intends to take advantage of limited game opportunities to find out which lineup layout and pitcher arrangement is the best.

The focus of the first line adjustment is on the first few sticks, and Yuji Nagata still has the arrangements he wants to try.

One stick is Fujiwara Kyoda from Kiritsune, Osaka.

The second stick is the small garden of Baode Academy.

Two players were selected for the U18 in the second grade. In last year's Canadian U-18 World Cup, they played the first and second bat combination and won the bronze medal with the team.

Superintendent Yuji Nagata has been thinking about the combination of Fujiwara and Koyuan from the beginning. So far, he has tried various modes in three external games.

When asked by reporters, Yuji Nagata said.

"I know Fujiwara's power, but Koyuan is growing, and I think it's also fun to hit the center axis."

The next line is to play three sticks, Nakagawa Takuya, four sticks, Nei Oyo and five sticks, Tetsu Nishino.

The batons of Fujiwara Kyota and Koyuan Haidou are still adjusting, but the combination of Neno Ao and Takashi Nishino has attracted the attention of reporters.

In these practice games, the attack combination of Neno Ao and Takashi Nishino continued, and the strike results of the two were divided into the top two in the team.

In the high school team's starting lineup announced before the game, Tetsu Nishino served as the starting catcher, so this game will not use DH designated strikes.

In four games, Koizumi Koizumi and Tetsuya Nishino each made the first squat and caught two games.

In the last practice match against Meiji University, Tetsu Nishino's ability to correct and consciousness left an impression on Superintendent Yuji Nagata, and the stability of the catcher's position was recognized.

“PalyBall!”

In the first half of the first inning, the high school team attacked first.

Fujiwara Kyoda first hit the second base, then Koyuan Haido came out of the field to hit him back.

The high school team was selected 1-0 Miyazaki.

Less than two minutes before the start of the pitch, the high school team took the lead.

In the subsequent garrison, the first pitcher was Nojiri Yukiki from Kishizu.

Yamada Ryushen, Ichikawa Yuta, and Watanabe Yutaro followed suit.

Each pitcher only scores 2 innings.

After the first 8 games, the high school team lost only 2 points and led the opponent 4-2.

After the first half of the nine innings, the game entered the second half of the last nine innings.

The stadium broadcast notice knew: "In the second half of the nine innings, the high school team's garrison players were replaced, pitcher Hirosung Yoshida was replaced, and the number 16 was backed."

The outfield stands were not open for today's game stadium, but enthusiastic fans still flocked in and sat in more than 16,000 seats.

Seeing Hirosho Yoshida walking up the pitching mound, the fans on the scene cheered and gave warm applause.

"Finally come on stage!"

"I've been waiting for a long time in the second half of the Ninth Bureau!"

“Great this!”

As the pitcher mound that had been on the game for a long time, Yoshida Hiroshi's face was calm and he was not at all nervous.

The teammates around him get along well, and the catcher in front is a junior in the same room.

Yoshida Hirose relaxed his mind and smoothly joined Nishino Tetsuya.

call out!

"Bang!"

As he shot one goal, Yoshida Hirose felt that his shoulders had completely heated up, so he smiled at Tetsu Nishino.

"Xiaozhe, that's OK."

"OK!" Takashi Nishino took off his cover and walked up.

On the pitcher mound, Tetsuo Nishino and Keihi Yoshida were on their shoulders and placed their right hand on his back.

The two of them tilted their heads to communicate with each other.

"Senior Yoshida, I may have a little more straight balls later, because you have shot so many balls in the summer and have been recovering these days."

"no problem."

"Yes." Tetsu Nishino smiled.

At this time, more than 16,000 fans in the stadium stands cheered again, and the warm applause was the most lively moment of the game.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"Singzhe is in the same frame!"

“My summer is back!”

A large group of fans left their seats, walked to the nearest stands, took out their cell phones or cameras, and took photos on the field with three layers inside and three layers outside.

The shot and arrest that caused a big boom in summer made a joint appearance in the foreign competition for the first time.

"Yoshida~!"

"Nieno~!"

The thunderous cheers on the court also made the commentators of this game quips.

"Oh, here we come out. The Yoshida Nishino combination, which is highly anticipated by fans, has finally formed. This is also the only event that can be formed in their high school career."

On the pitcher mound.

Tetsu Nishino used the craze in the stands to tease Hiroshi Yoshida.

"Senior Yoshida, you are so popular. You have cheered so much before you even pitched."

"Blame me." Yoshida Hirose fights back.

"Hehe, I'll go down first. Just wait until the senior swings his arm with all his strength."

Tetsu Nishino returns to the catcher seat.

"PalyBall!" The referee signaled to start pitching, and Yoshida Hiroshi threw the first goal of the game after Kakoen.

"Bang!"

"nice shot!"

The straight ball of the 145-kilometer inner corner flew in, and Takashi Nishino steadily caught it.

The second ball was shot to the high position and the bad ball belt.

Then the third goal was low, and Yoshida Hitoshi scored in and was beaten out of bounds by the hitter.

“146 km!”

The speed of the ball displayed on the electronic scoreboard made the audience sigh, and it seemed that Yoshida's pitching condition was recovering well.

The next goal is the fourth goal.

"Bang!"

“147 km!”

"The ball has been getting faster and faster!" The fans and commentators were all amazed.

In the attack area, the Miyazaki selection team's hitter exhaled in surprise. Fortunately, although the ball speed increased, it fell below the good ball area and had a bad ball belt.

2 bad balls 2 good balls.

The hitter was chased by two good balls and forced to the brink of being out.

Then came the fifth goal, and Yoshida Hiroshi pitched the ball.

call out!

In Nishino Tetsuya's eyes, baseball arrived almost instantly.

"Here you come!"

He stared at the incoming ball that was constantly expanding in his eyes, and then aimed it at the ball with his left-handed catcher glove.

Another swinging object that suddenly appears cannot be an obstacle to Nishino Tetsuya's receiving the ball.

Lift your arm.

"Bang!"
