Pitcher Haruto Hanshin Takahashi’s 113 balls weren’t the picture of shoving with the power of the ball until now. The fastest is 145 km. He threw 150 kilometers nine times without measuring a single ball.

Many people would have wondered if the Takahashi Yamada release looked like that. Rhythm distribution? Incorrect. Imechen? That is also different. It wasn’t that Takahashi changed that Takahashi looked different than usual. He is at the helm of receiver Seishiro Sakamoto. It means that Sakamoto took out “a different Takahashi”.

He played a total of 30 batters, but he didn’t throw many changing balls. The breakdown of the 14 self-max strikes was 11 for direct type and 3 for ball change.

A catcher named Yamada Sakamoto is in Umeno’s reserve, but I can see that he often watches the batter. Simply put, it would be slow or slow, but I focused on “slow”. I was always aware of the straight ball and played with changing ball. On the contrary, I took advantage of the straight with a change of ball. It means that he won with the so-called throwing technique.

Even in this match, the winning stars did not grow as expected while shooting well. Did you mean that you transformed?

Yamada That is also different. It is a mistake to continue this release from now on. It is still the original way to hold tight. Just remember with your body that there is a way to suppress it. It was Sakamoto who helped him. This year’s giant Oshiro is doing well. However, there was a difference with Sakamoto in this battle. Beating the giant Okamoto, Hanshin hit Oyama with the No. 24 home base.

Yamada Giant Battery should be hit by Oyama. This breaks the relationship of trust between the pitcher and the fielder and destroys the team. Base fight? Most of the pitcher’s wins are the same, but it’s getting harder to be on top. is from now on.[Entrevista / Composición = Hirokazu Terao, editor en jefe]
