The University of Tokyo hits a home run for the first time in two years since Ishimoto in the fall of 2020
In the spring league match of Tokyo Big6 Baseball League, which started on the 9th at Meiji Jingu Stadium, pitcher Shunsuke Izawa (4th year), the starting pitcher of the University of Tokyo, hit the first home run in the league match in the Keidai War. It is the first time in two years that a player from the University of Tokyo has hit a home run in a league match since Yuichi Ishimoto infielder hit in the second round of Meidai in the fall of 2020.
It was two deaths in the fourth inning with a tie of 3-3. When Izawa entered the turn at bat, he swung the second straight ball, and the ball went up high and landed on the left wing stand. I went around the diamond once while doing a guts pose. It is the first time in two years that a player from the University of Tokyo has hit a home run in a league match. The one shot at the stadium became a valuable winning bullet to help oneself.
Izawa, who joined the University of Tokyo baseball club after one wandering from Sapporo Minami High School, pitched in the league match from the spring of 2nd year. He won his first victory in the second round of Rikkyo last fall. On this day, he pitched tenaciously against last year’s spring-autumn champion Keio University, and dropped out with 4 hits and 3 runs in the 5th inning.
