Kokugakuin Kugayama has a connection with the batting line that puts Seiken Saito, who has a batting average of 50%, as the top batter in the official game last fall.


I was instructed by Mr. Ichiro, who was active in Japan and the United States last November, and I will be paying attention to whether he can demonstrate the results.



Arita Technical High School has thrown out eight official games by almost one person, including ace pitcher Yuya Tsukamoto shutting out two games in a row at the Kyushu tournament last fall.
