On the 23rd, pitcher Yuki Matsui of Tohoku Rakuten released his own training at Rakuten Seimei Park Miyagi in Sendai City. In order to achieve the goal of 60 pitches and an earned run average of 0 points, he is working hard to build a body that will not hurt him.
On this day, I used a catch ball to break in my shoulders, and used a pull pen to sit the catcher and throw 10 balls. Condition adjustment is important for the opening. The lesson is the bitter experience of having withdrawn for a long time due to a pain in the right thigh in late August last season. “I try to talk to my body from the time I wake up until I start practicing, and I try to do more work to check what the condition is,” he pays close attention.
The policy is to adopt the 12-time extension system for the first time in three years this season, and it is expected that the closer will have more pitches across innings. “I want to throw it every day, anytime, anytime. I want to be well prepared so that people can trust me and call me my name.”
With a total of 200 saves and 35 saves left, the range is captured. There are six achievements in the history of professional baseball, and no player has reached it in his twenties. The goal for this season, which will start at the age of 26, is “I have no choice but to win. At the end, I want to laugh and rejoice together.” Before contributing to the team’s crown with full rotation, he is also waiting for his own big record.
