Tatsunori Hara (62), a giant who runs alone at the top of the Central League, has reduced the winning magic to 31 by sticking to the supremacy of victory. Starting pitcher Daisuke Naoe (20), aiming for his first professional win, was brought down with a 4-point lead in the fifth inning with first and second base, and switched to a succession strategy. In the scene where the young right arm, who was tenacious in scoring two points at once, provoked a pinch with four dead balls in a row, the team’s victory over the individual white star was given top priority. Hayato Sakamoto (31) broke the line with 19 hits and 10 goals, including a landslide 159th prize for Thailand’s sixth place in history with 3 hits and 3 hits.

Following pitcher Miyamoto’s head coach, Hara slowly came off the bench and the Tokyo Dome fans involuntarily sighed. In the first game of the base, where the maximum number of spectators was 19,000, a maximum of 17,193 people gathered this season. The advantage is 4 points. The 20-year-old right arm, who only had two deaths until his first pro win, tied his mouth and returned to the bench on the first base side in bubbling applause immediately after the sigh.

Hara: It is difficult to get a victory. Becoming a winning pitcher is not easy. Today I thought about it and I want him to think about it and dedicate himself.

Naoe, who scored two points in the first inning, carefully dropped the fork after the second inning and threw a hit into the fourth inning. The reliable batting line scored 6 points in the fourth inning and strongly supported the first professional win.

However, control of the ball is again affected by a death in the fifth inning. The straight ball goes high for 3 consecutive balls against the substitute hit and 4 balls. The third ball in a row became a dead ball at the next No. 1 Omori. The number of balls reached 85, which was the highest number for the professionals, when second Hiroshi Tanaka was received, allowing two runs at a time. The commander decided: “We will get in 3rd and 4th. Including the batter who has been hit by a home run. We still don’t know the difference of 4 points.”

On the bench immediately after getting off the board, they called Naoe next to him. “A little more. A little more. It’s not easy to win,” she said. The right arm, which was scolded by Abe’s acting 1st Army head coach, who was training as a 2nd Army coach, caused his eyes to bulge in the front row of the bench. “In the end, my weakness came to light. That is the most disappointing thing. I am disappointed.” I used “disappointing” twice in comments through public relations and it exuded regret.

After Naoe’s departure, he connected with Oe and Kagiya, survived the fifth inning without a run, and entered the final stage of the succession plan. Even if the magic constantly diminishes, there is nothing to relax. Hara said, “I want him to be the winning pitcher,” he said, consistently racking up a win with the best relay.[Yusuke Maeda]
