"ID baseball" and "reproduction factory", which represent Nomura's great general for the first time, February 11, 18:26
Mr. Nomura has been the best in Japan three times in nine years as a director at Yakult, and has built a new era. At this time, the two words of “ID baseball” and “recycling factory” express Nomura's name.
Of these, "ID baseball" does not rely on the experience and intuition of the players alone, but proceeds with the game while playing based on the data shown by the manager.
Mr. Nomura communicated the established baseball theory and what he should do to the players and coaches at the meeting, and tried to spread it throughout the team.
Mr. Atsuya Furuta, who joined Yakult where Mr. Nomura was the same catcher, was called “ID baseball kid” due to his own ability to pull the pitcher with a brain-lead.
After the defense, Furuta returned to the bench and sat near Nomura, where he played with the `` blurs '' about the play taking place on the ground, and became a catcher who represented the ball world by listening to outstanding baseball theory. Grew up
After this, he helped to develop Motoichi Shima, a catcher who led the team to the first team in Japan at Rakuten.
In addition, Mr. Nomura's skill in giving other players the opportunity to play out of the field and playing back again was called the "regeneration factory."
In the Nankai era, he won the trade of Yuka Enatsu, who played an active part in Hanshin, and persuaded him to turn to control, which had a lower evaluation than now. Enatsu pitcher showed his presence as a restrainer in the Nankai area, and after that he was transferred to Hiroshima and Nippon Ham before being called the "winning contractor."
Also, during the Yakult era, he won the hit of Hirohiko Kobayakawa in Hiroshima the previous year. After knowing that Kobayakawa has been active since his first year at Hosei University and his career as a rookie in his first year of professionalism, he says, "You can get very good results in the first year. Yakult can be a good year It was the first move in the season one of the first season of the transfer, and started in the 5th / first game.
Mr. Kobayakawa responded to Nomura's appointment, and contributed to the victory by hitting three consecutive home runs from pitcher Masaki Saito, who Yakult was not good at at the time, and the role of greatly motivating the team for Japan in that year. Played.
Mr. Nomura has the impression that he emphasizes data even when appointing players, but in fact, not only the numbers but also the aspects that can be attentive, such as skillful voices, after taking the thoughts of veterans who come back again. Was.
