CS Broadcasting “Giants Best Game You Choose” is currently being broadcast on NTV Geetas!
The 18th episode will broadcast the game against Yakult on June 9, 1993, when Kazunori Shinozuka hit a walk-off home run off rookie Tomohito Ito, who at the time was tied for the league with 16 strikeouts per game!
In this game, Tomohito Ito’s right-hander racked up a mountain of strikeouts using his high-speed slider.
The number of strikeouts has increased to 15, one shy of the Central League record at the time, and there is a disturbing atmosphere on the Giants’ bench. Meanwhile, Shinozuka, who was not in the starting lineup, entered the game from second base defense midway through the top of the 9th inning, with the score tied 0-0. In the bottom of the 9th inning, the batter in front of Shinozuka hit Ito’s slider and struck out, resulting in a league-tying 16 strikeouts. If the next batter struck out, it would be a new record, and Shinozuka was given his turn at bat. Shinozuka was off the bat twice before Ito threw his first pitch. Ito seemed to be in a hurry to pitch, so the veteran hitter made a strategy move. Shinozuka hit the first pitch of the game, a fastball that was 138 km high, with all his might. A perfect hit goes straight to the light stand. In a tragic end, Ito, the losing pitcher, collapsed onto the mound on both knees.
A famous game that still lingers in the hearts of baseball fans today. Even after 31 years, the broadcast of this game is still talked about as a model for sports broadcasting among people in the video industry. Tomohito Ito, who tied a Japanese record with 16 strikeouts, was the hero of this game, but veteran Kazunori Shinozuka’s swing crushed the hero’s 150th pitch. While the Giants players were exploding with joy, the live camera was watching Tomohito Ito throw his glove in frustration. Although it was a dramatic walk-off game, it may be said that what made it even more impressive was that it depicted the drama of the loser’s regret rather than the victor’s joy.
Please take a look at the legendary match, which is full of highlights from various perspectives!
