Hideki Kuriyama also came to observe… Kanazawa’s Saito, who is attracting attention from professionals, is doing well in the summer high school baseball Ishikawa tournament: “Even better than I had heard” 07/15 (Mon) 17:32
The summer Ishikawa High School Baseball Tournament continues with heated battles. On the 15th, Kanazawa High School, which has players attracting attention from professional teams, will be appearing. The world champion also sent a passionate gaze at the team.
Kanazawa lost to Kou Ishikawa in the spring prefectural tournament and finished in the top eight. Their first opponent is Komatsu. Hideki Kuriyama, who led Samurai Japan to the world championship last year, also came to observe the prefectural baseball stadium. The fifth inning began with both teams scoreless. Kanazawa showed off their defense.
Captain Saito, who is attracting attention from the pros, firmly grasped the hit and did not let Komatsu take the lead. Then, in the 6th inning, with two outs and runners on second and first, Saito was at bat.
Kanazawa captain Saito Taito:
When I looked out into the stands, I saw a lot of people there cheering me on, so I think it was all their help that allowed me to hit the ball.
The Kanazawa batting line exploded after a timely hit fell in front of center field to break the deadlock. They scored five runs in one inning. On the pitching side, ace pitcher Yamamoto allowed runners to reach base, but kept the sixth inning scoreless with his tight pitching, and Kanazawa defeated Komatsu 6-0.
Commander Daishou Saito:
The game was close at the beginning, but I’m glad we were able to win because the batting line-up, including my hit, was able to keep things going as a team. (From the third round onwards) What we need to do won’t change, so we want to win with our own style.
The person who came to inspect…
Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters’ Hideki Kuriyama:
I came to see everyone, including Saito. (Saito) is even more amazing than I had heard, so I’m looking forward to it. He showed me something great.
Q: Could you imagine yourself playing shortstop for the Fighters?
Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters’ Hideki Kuriyama:
You have really great abilities, I’m looking forward to it
