High school Japan national team who will participate in baseball 's 12th U18 (18 years old) Asian Championship (September 3 opening day) visited KIRISHIMA Sun Marine Stadium Miyazaki in Miyazaki city, which will be the match venue on the 30th.
Initially it was scheduled to end with "confirmation of about 30 minutes" with "Let's rest the body, not restrain it much" (Nagata Yuji), but with hope from the players changed to independent practice for two hours. Eighteen people sweat in a relaxed atmosphere.
Among them, Yoshida Shinboshi (Kinaku Agriculture) seemed pleasant. The training camp in Tokyo was another menu adjustment considering the fatigue in Koshien, but on this day I did a dash and catchball with other pitchers. "I think it's in good shape, I think the condition is better than at the time of Koshien." I also worked on catch balls and long tea with a left throw and it was a smile from the beginning.
On 31st there is a spectacular game with Miyazaki prefecture high school selection, entering the stage of total finishing towards the opening of the season. Yoshida told the team, "I have troubled the team so much time to adjust and I want to pitch more than always for that," he told his enthusiasm. (Yuki Omata)
