Orix's camp in Miyazaki City is on the 5th day.
Yutaro Sugimoto, the home run king of the year before, who suffered from a slump last year, practiced batting while being conscious of the sharp hit of the right batter hitting the right batter in the opposite direction.
Sugimoto hit 32 home runs a year ago and won the home run king title, but last year he suffered from a slump from the opening, the number of home runs was halved to 15, and the batting average remained at 20%, 3 minutes, 5 minutes. I was.
In an attempt to make a comeback this season, before the camp, he was doing independent training with Rakuten's Hideto Asamura, saying, "I want to learn the sharpness of hitting balls in the opposite direction."
Every day at this camp, he stayed on the ground to practice batting while other players were having lunch. It was like I was conscious of it.
Sugimoto said, "I didn't do very well from the opening last year, so I want to do my best from the camp so that I can make a start dash from the opening."
