Hayato Sakamoto, infielder (31), had a total of 2000 hits for the 53rd person in history. The first hit came from Takahashi on September 6, 2007 in the 21st round for China and Japan (Nagoya Dome). The drama unleashed during the championship battle was the beginning of it all. Reprinted 12 times from the final blows again! (Affiliation, age, etc. at that time)

◇ September 6, 2007 ◇ Nagoya Dome

An 18-year-old rookie has fought a deadly battle. Hayato Sakamoto (18), who appeared as a substitute from the 12th inning with 2 dead bases, saluted with a 1-1 draw, hit Nakamae with 2 points in the final and brought a valuable white star to the original giant. It is the first time a giant has hit a V in their freshman year of high school graduation since Hideki Matsui (now Yankees) in 1993. The original giant, who won the fierce 5 hour 15 minute battle, collided with Hanshin, who is gaining momentum with 7 consecutive victories at the Tokyo Dome from today. In September, the end of the season, we will face the “GT Leading Battle” for the first time in 22 years since 1985.

I followed the whereabouts of the slowly flying ball with my eyes. After confirming that the final blow bounced off the ground, Sakamoto finally understood the situation. “Wow, I thought I fell.” There is no striking pose or smile. When coach Nishioka asked the defense to shake hands at first base, he finally smiled.

The first pro hit at Mt. Tenno is the finishing blow by a graduate rookie since Hideki Matsui. The rookie, still not remembering how to rejoice, solved the battle to the death for 5 hours and 15 minutes.

Even if I wasn’t a newcomer, I was strangely calm at the scene where my body solidified. Ogasawara picked a four-ball away from the 12th inning, 2nd base. “I thought maybe there could be a twist.” As expected, Director Hara yelled, “Sakamoto, let’s go!”

The fourth ball, Takahashi’s fastball, swung. “I was nervous, but relaxed. I was just thinking about throwing the ball straight.” Although the final blow was blocked, it went over the frame as much as it shook. Director Hara also said, “Hayato, let’s go! And he flew away.”

I just got promoted to the 1st Army for the second time on the 2nd of this month. This is the first expedition in Nagoya with an army. The first thing that surprised me was the hotel slippers. “It has a name called Giants. It’s amazing isn’t it?” After returning from the pre-Olympic tournament in Beijing, I came on an expedition to Nagoya at the farm, but I was surprised by the difference in treatment. The 18-year-old, who was impressed by the little things, touched the hearts of the team and the fans even more.

Life with the person he longed for brought Sakamoto closer to being a professional. The night I came to Nagoya for an expedition, I went out to dinner with Nioka. The goal when entering a professional is “I want to be a player like Mr. Nioka.” In pre-game practice, he would always look at my back. The older ones who were far away became familiar little by little. “Now I can speak normally.” Nioka, who is the target, smiled a bitter smile, “I think it’s not good if you target me. The first hit that came in the third at bat. It was also one that began to move towards the ideal.

He beat Tennoyama to China and Japan with a single hit from a new star. Director Hara also praised the success of the rookie, who remains innocent, saying, “The greatest joy as a baseball player. He lived up to his expectations in such situations.” “The ball I hit is in my bag. I want to go back to the bedroom and tell my mom.” Today, the 7th, I will go back to the dorm once before going to the Tokyo Dome. After expressing his gratitude to his late mother, Sakamoto returns to the harsh professional world.

▼ The giant was spread 12 times, and Sakamoto, a full-based high-grade newcomer, won and hit. It’s the first time in 14 years since a giant high school newcomer hit V on September 24, 1993, when Matsui recorded it against Hiroshima. Matsui has had three hits in V, but it wasn’t an extended game. This season’s behemoth had a complete base record of 89 hits and 16 hits through the day before, with a 10% hit rate and 8 minutes. Although it was a giant hitting line that was weak against the full base, Sakamoto produced results with the first professional full base machine.
