《Highlights》

Yamanashi Gakuin will advance to the final four for the first time throughout the spring and summer, and if they win, they will become the first Yamanashi prefectural team to advance to the final throughout the spring and summer. Ace pitcher Kengo Hayashi has started all four games so far, throwing complete games in two of them, and has been throwing almost alone, showing outstanding stability with only two foreballs and dead balls. In addition, the batting line is also good, hitting 4 hits and scoring 4 runs in the quarterfinals.

Gwangryo has scored 2 goals in the three matches so far and reached the semi-finals for the first time in 1 years. Kei Manabe, a notable slugger, had three hits in the first match and three hits, including two long balls, in the quarterfinals, and is the center of the batting lineup.

It will be interesting to see who will be better than Yamanashi Gakuin's ace pitcher Hayashi or Koryo's powerful batting lineup.
