Seibu Takahashi Mitsunari (23), who wore the legendary uniform number “13” on his back, won his first complete victory with a hit, despite missing a no-hit, no-run in the ninth inning. There are no hits on the ORIX line until the eighth inning. He allowed Nishino, who was at the start of the ninth inning, to hit Nakamae. It wasn’t revenge for coach Nishiguchi, who wore the same number 13 on his back and had been hit twice in the ninth inning for 2 kills. Still, he cut the road and earned his fifth win of the season, giving him the style of the next ace.

In that uniform, for that No. 13, 9 times from Onimon. Hikaru Takahashi desperately killed the urge to achieve No. 25th person to welcome. A low hairpin from the 1-1 count was carried to the front Nishino and he ducked on the mound. “Before entering for the ninth time, I had a great feeling that I could go. I was holding her desperately, but after all she came out.” Even so, he cut off the successor and won a complete victory.

Legendary uniform that built the golden age. Former 13th pitching coach Nishiguchi said it 9 times before. “Go up to 2 outs.” “Major” he missed not twice out of two kills nine times in 2002 and 2005. Hikaru Takahashi said, “Of course I know. I saw it on YouTube. I wanted to get up to 2 outs.” Here also the genealogy of the proud Orthodox right arm of Seibu was inherited.

As a Koshien V Dora 1 pitcher, he is called an ace candidate and is in his sixth year as a pro. He was expected to be one of the mainstays with his first double-digit win last season when he defended the starter. However, this season a sense of stability has been lacking since the opening. While doing his best, he moved on to investigating hitters.

I heard the hitter’s psychology directly from the Kuriyama and Nakamura posters. “I’m waiting like this, I realized that what the pitcher thinks is different than what the batter thinks, so it’s a great learning experience. It’s different if you know it or not. The ball you threw is also transmitted to” . Last time, he had one hit and no runs in the seventh inning. It is linked to the result.

The last 10 games are 7 wins and 3 losses. The maximum debt was reduced to 3. After the game, the relief team asked for a “1 hit jersey.” A good pitch that creates a good mood. The summer counterattack is a bandit hako. A month-late rollback has already started.[Nariyoshi Kurita]
