... it was completely wet from the rain, which has now raged on virtually the entire archipelago.
SHINKO Ō Gakuen (Hyōgo) 6 K OCH I (Koch) 5
The rain kept away many viewers and probably will do well tomorrow. However, has not prevented many locals to make "two steps" to get to Koshien to watch the game of Shinko Gakuen , the home team (the school is twenty kilometers from the stadium). And beyond the rain appeared also the first "X" in the score. It is the symbol which, coupled with a number in the box last inning indicates a sayonara-kachi (roughly " win and goodbye ").
This time no epic homerun, but a walk-off single Yokokawa the outside (left), who allowed the boys to Kobe to win a match swinging. For the Kochi who had the proverbial sweat seven shirts to get the longed equal to the ninth round, the regret of having collected the defeat when it lacked a single elimination to get to extra innings .
Chuk Y Odai Ō Chukyo (Aichi) 5 MORIOKADAI FUZOKU (Iwate) 4
It 'been a match in the balance less than it might suggest the difference of the minimum score, at least until the last shot. The Chūkyōdai Chukyo complied with the prediction that saw him promoted under the splendid victory at Koshien summer in August last year.
At the end of the eighth, the result of 5 to 3 believe they have now in hand the meeting, Takashima, of Chūkyōdai coach, decided to give a little 'breathing ace Morimoto (pictured left) and did get the second pitcher Asano. But these, thanks to the pressure and even the muddy ground, has managed to give two bases for ball , Eliminating one opponent and allowing the Moriokadai to occupy the second and third base. At this point the coach has seen fit to retreat and did fall Morimoto, who has managed to limit the damage and closed the meeting on the 5 to 4, saving the samples to an insidious extension of match.
Also in the last two occasions to point out several challenging situations, including two run down (ie tracking, tambourine action at the defense tries to delete a runner caught between bases) and a squeeze play * failure.
* For the less experienced, is the term for the rally in as a team, with a runner on third base, trying to get him to mark the spot with help of a bunt.
CHIBEN Wakayama (Wakayama) 6 SHO Takaoka (Toyama) 1
The batters have played with the Chiben Wakayama Hironari Nabet, Takaoka Shō pitcher, a little 'how would the cat and mouse. They did believe that if the opponent could play at par, giving him some well strike out. But most likely the
lineup white and red was just taking the measurement to the unfortunate. Al third inning hit the foil, a light punticino paw to get a warning. Then in the fifth he finally unsheathed its claws to stun him, buried with five consecutive points. Finally rested controlling prey awaiting the arrival of the last shot.
So a prediction amply fulfilled and a new record for the legendary Mr. Hitoshi Takashima, who has reached the 59th victory at Koshien touching as a goal never achieved by any other coaches before him. In the final Takashima interivste Aesop has even said: " I told my boys to behave like the tortoise made with rabbit, provided you do not run too far. In addition, I urged them to follow the basic theories, not improvise anything, because if you try to exaggerate the Koshien makes you not get away. They have heard me and the end result is completed by itself, without the need to force anything . Here you can listen to during a brief interview appeared in the documentary film " Kokoyakyu: High School Baseball .
