Similar to the Angels, SAMURAI JAPAN also held batting practice in the same format as the Angels, and a highly anticipated showdown was realized. Last season was a match between Yu Darvish (36), who won 16 majors, and Japanese triple crown champion Munetaka Murakami (23). The first ball misses the breaking ball. And it was the fourth ball from one ball two strike. A big hit is a home run that is sucked into the back screen. Murakami won the “first showdown”. SAMURAI JAPAN Darvish Yu: “I thought it was the moment I hit it. Being publicly executed in a place like this… it’s a little sad for me. Even a major batter can’t hit that ball that easily. Hit it in one shot.” I was surprised because I hit it.” After Murakami, Darvish faced four batters. I was planning to get off the mound here, but Darvish requested “refill” with Murakami. SAMURAI JAPAN’s Munetaka Murakami: “Mr. Darvish looked frustrated, so I thought it was going to happen again, so I hid.” SAMURAI JAPAN Darvish Yu: “I’m going to give him a second helping and he’ll hit me hard. It’s really embarrassing. (Murakami) may go to the majors someday, so I think he can change his evaluation of Japanese players.”
