2nd place, Konno’s 144km fastball hits the left hand
Hanshin-Yakult (13th, Kyocera Dome)
Hanshin’s catcher Ryutaro Umeno was hit by a pitch in his left hand in the 5th at-bat in the match against Yakult held at Kyocera Dome on the 13th and was replaced midway. Yakult’s 2nd place, Konno’s 144-kilogram fastball hit directly, and he collapsed and had an anguished expression.
The trainer immediately rushes to the back of the bench while supporting the left hand. He received treatment, but after that, catcher Seishiro Sakamoto was sent as a substitute runner, and Umeno was replaced. The announcement caused a great uproar in the hall.
Umeno had a batting average of .190 and 1 home run and 18 RBIs before the game. In the first at bat of this game, he hit a midfielder, and in the second at bat, he hit a right sacrifice hit. If they leave, it will be a big blow for Hanshin, who runs in the lead.
