Seibu Matsuzaka 93th pitch 18:46 on February 9

Professional baseball pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka, who returned to Seibu for the first time in 14 years, was the third bullpen in the camp, sat a catcher for the first time, threw 93 balls, and showed good adjustment.

After returning to Seibu for the first time in 14 years, pitcher Matsuzaka, 39 years old, entered the third bullpen at a camp held in Nichinan City, Miyazaki Prefecture.

Until now, the catcher was not sitting twice, but on the 9th, the bullpen catcher was first seated and threw 93 balls.

Matsuzaka pitched about 60 balls in the set position when the runner was present, and then switched to a windup to swing.

In addition to throwing a lot of straights and curves, I tried three ball types, the cut ball, change-up, and two seam, which I am most confident with, and showed the smooth adjustment.

After pitching practice, pitcher Matsuzaka smiled when applauding was sent from the watching fan. "I felt that my lower body moved better than I thought, so there were many times when the timing was wrong, but it was not bad. You can also practice throwing against the batter earlier. "
