On the 15th day of the 100th National High School Baseball Tournament Championships, there is a semi-finals at Koshien Stadium on the 20th, before the game of the 2nd game Jimi (Ehime) - Osaka Kinjo (Kita Osaka), before the game of Sasaki (Miyagi) Lord Hiroshi (Kazuhiro) (50) got up to the "legend start ball formula" and made a big crowd.
As an oppression to the active era, Mr. Sasaki cited a total of 381 savings in Japan and the United States, and was called "great devil" from its dignified throwing. While I was flying with my voice saying "throwing a fork" which was a decided ball from the stand, I got a strong straight straight to mitt. Koshien who came for a long time. "The atmosphere is completely different, I feel distant between the batteries but it is easy to throw, I was thrown in a good tension feeling, my feelings rejuvened"
It is one of "Kuwata, Kiyohara generation" which made Koshien leave the PL school as "KK combination". The friendship will never shake. For the beginning ball ceremony, Mr. Kihara Kihara served one day as a partner of the catch-ball, and this day I shook hands firmly with Mr. Masumi Kuwata who threw at the start ball ceremony at the first match before entering the ballpark.
The Koshien Tournament has been playing for three consecutive seasons from the summer of 2 years, and in the spring and summer of 3 years both won the best 8. It is the last game of the summer of 3 years that still remains in a thick chest as that memory. Koyasu (Shiga) who kept on advancing a lot while playing for the first time was defeated to the good-bye goodbye.
"I went to the university with spring as a spring, I went to the professional, I had that kind of regret."
Under the supervision of Takeda Toshiaki, he aimed for the first big crimson flag of the crimson in Tohoku. What you got there is not small. "Friends, Japanese, teamwork, everyone practiced painfully, practice does not tell a lie, if I practice I will come to Koshien and learn to win at Koshien"
In the semifinals first match, Kimonosaki (Akita), who aims to win the Tohoku first for the first time, decided to advance to the finals. Mr. Sasaki watched the grand figure on the TV of the Koshien's waiting room. "When you are watching Kinoshita's baseball, you play baseball that seems to be a high school baseball, such as sending from a one-out, under a firm leader." About Ace's Yoshida Shinki pitcher, "The quality of the straight is good, not only fast." And, "I want you to work hard tomorrow as a Tohoku people," Yale sent. (Masaki Kasai)
