In the third year of professional baseball Yakult, pitcher Noboru Shimizu set a new record for professional baseball by raising the 48th hold this season against DeNA on the 17th.
Pitcher Shimizu went up to the mound as the fourth person in the 8th inning, leading 4 to 3 and 1 point in the DeNA game held at Yokohama Stadium on the 17th.
After taking two outs with a strikeout and a second goro, Shugo Maki, who was No. 4, hit a two-base hit and reached a bases loaded pinch.
Even so, he hit No. 7 Yamato on a light fly to defend the lead and recorded the 48th hold.
Pitcher Shimizu set a new season record with a hold on the 17th, in line with the professional baseball record marked by pitcher Takuya Asao of Chunichi at that time in 2010, 11 years ago.
Pitcher Shimizu is 25 years old in his third year as a professional.
After passing through Teikyo High School in Tokyo and Kokugakuin University, I joined the team in 1st place in the draft.
The title of the best relay has already been confirmed for the second consecutive year.
