00:00Today's theme is the pro baseball 2nd division league, the Eastern League vs. the Western League.
00:07Unlike the Sering and Paring, the 2nd division is divided into the East and the West, and the scenery is completely different from the 1st division.
00:17This is a complicated men's game.
00:21These four players are from the Eastern League, which is located in the eastern part of Japan, and these four players are from the Western League, which is located in the western part of Japan.
00:41Imanori-san is the one who came up with this theme.
00:44Oh, really?
00:45I used to think of the 2nd division league as a theme, but the Eastern League and the Western League are completely different.
00:53So I'd like to talk to you about that today.
00:56Is it different even in the same 2nd division league?
00:58It's completely different.
00:59I'll give you an example.
01:01When I was in the 2nd division, there was a saying that you can't say it hurts if it hurts.
01:06But when it comes to elbow pain and shoulder pain, the coach said,
01:09If you take a three-day break, will it heal?
01:13If it heals in three days, take a break.
01:15Oh, I see.
01:16That's the cutting edge.
01:17Take a break.
01:18I went to Hanshin.
01:20I said, I'm not feeling well today.
01:25He said, Are you licking me?
01:27Where did you come from?
01:31Seriously?
01:32How about you, Sekiya-san?
01:34Of course, I can't say that.
01:37But Western League coaches are so good that they can't say that.
01:46How about you, Yamazaki-san?
01:47What's the difference between the Eastern League and the Western League?
01:49The biggest difference is the stadium.
01:53In my time, the Eastern League played on the river.
01:57The Western League played in the stadium.
02:01That's right.
02:02The Eastern League and the Western League played on the river.
02:05The Eastern League played on the river.
02:07The Western League played on the stadium.
02:09I don't think they played on the stadium.
02:12I think they played on the grass.
02:17What's your image of the Eastern League?
02:20My image of the Eastern League is...
02:23There are a lot of players who wear perfume and have a lot of hair.
02:30For example, Nijihamu.
02:31Which one?
02:34The Western League has a manly image.
02:40When someone passes by, I can tell who they are by their smell.
02:43When there is a dangerous player, I can't say that.
02:47What do you mean you can't say that?
02:49You can tell by the smell, right?
02:51First, let me ask you about the passionate fans of both leagues.
02:55I heard that there are a lot of old men in the Western League.
03:00Let's start with the Eastern League.
03:03The famous Kamagaya old man, Kaewuta.
03:09There are a lot of fans in Kamagaya Stadium.
03:12There is an old man named Kamagaya.
03:14He makes the original fan chant.
03:17He doesn't have a big fan base.
03:22He has a loud voice.
03:25He has a loud voice.
03:26By the way, there was a fan chant of my song.
03:29Can I sing it for you?
03:38That's all you wanted to say, right?
03:41That's why you brought this project.
03:43I wanted to do this.
03:44I wanted to sing.
03:46Do you sing other songs like this?
03:49There are a lot of songs.
03:50There is a song called Ugumori.
03:53I'm looking forward to seeing who will sing this song.
04:02What is that?
04:05Actually, I like this song the most.
04:08There was a player named Arahari.
04:10When a player named Arahari stood up, everyone said,
04:12What is Arahari?
04:14Then he said,
04:15Arahari, Arahari, Arahari, Arahari.
04:18That's what I said.
04:20That's why we were so excited when we watched the match.
04:23I think Uchikawa's fan chant is memorable.
04:26This is a story of Kamagaya.
04:28There is a man who knows all of the players' movements.
04:33He told us that he was there yesterday.
04:35He told us why he was there.
04:37He told us to be careful because Uchikawa would hit a home run yesterday.
04:41Uchikawa predicted the game.
04:44In this scene, Uchikawa came out and said,
04:46This is a reversal.
04:49This is a win-win situation.
04:51Isn't that person Yo-Yo Utsu?
04:53He said, I'm Uchikawa!
04:55Yes, yes, yes, yes.
04:57Uchikawa was in the front and said,
04:59I'm Uchikawa!
05:01Yo-Yo Utsu came out.
05:03I'm Uchikawa!
05:05That's Utsu-Yo!
05:07Hey, Uchikawa was in the front yesterday.
05:10What is it? Are you Mashio?
05:13Yo-Yo Utsu.
05:15It's so funny.
05:17He's been around since my time.
05:19He's been around all the time.
05:21Even on weekdays, he drinks beer all day long.
05:25For the time being, he says bad things about the other player.
05:29He knows all the information.
05:31He knows that, too.
05:33He's like, what are you doing today?
05:35I see, I see.
05:36What about you, Motoki?
05:37How do you feel about the two titans?
05:39I'm very worried about the titans.
05:43I only came to see the second team.
05:46When the first team came up,
05:48I said, good luck.
05:50Don't come back.
05:52I was like, are you a coach?
05:54When the first team came up,
05:56did you come to see the second team?
05:58No, I only came to see the second team.
06:00When the second team dropped me,
06:03I was like, what are you doing?
06:06Before entering the stadium,
06:08I was scolded by the coach at the parking lot.
06:13Next is a Western League player.
06:18Gojigon, a famous player of Nagoya Stadium.
06:21What's that?
06:23Gojigon?
06:25Among our players,
06:27Gojigon is called Gojigon.
06:29There was a man who was running.
06:31He was running.
06:33I was really surprised.
06:37I was really surprised.
06:39He came to every game.
06:41He cheered me up with a very low voice.
06:44One day, Yamamoto Masu was hit by a two-point shot.
06:48Then I said, Yamamoto Masu.
06:52I beat him.
06:54Then Yamamoto Masu got angry.
06:58He said, you bastard, come here.
07:00That's how it started.
07:02Then Gojigon said,
07:04If you're upset, go to Ichigo.
07:07Then Yamamoto Masu stopped.
07:11Did he have a stroke?
07:13Yes, he had a stroke and stopped.
07:15Then there was Kintetsu Buffaloes.
07:18It's old, isn't it?
07:20It looks like it's going to break.
07:22Fujino is...
07:24As I said earlier,
07:26There was a man in his 60s and 70s.
07:30When a player comes out,
07:34He tells me all the players' high school names and characteristics.
07:40He tells me all the players' profiles.
07:43Sales points, too.
07:45He's not good at defense, but he's good at batting.
07:49He was a very interesting old man.
07:52He was collecting information.
07:54I've known him since I was a kid.
07:57Old people don't know.
08:00He was collecting information from his fans.
08:04I didn't know that.
08:06How about you, Mr. Sekibo?
08:08The fans of HANSHIN are...
08:11It's a little different from Ichigo.
08:13It's like we're raising them.
08:16It's a little similar to the fans of Giant.
08:20When I go to Ichigo, I'm supposed to go.
08:23When I go to Ichigo, I'm supposed to go.
08:26The fans are completely different.
08:29I'm like, what the hell is this?
08:32That's the difference.
08:34How about you, Mr. Abe?
08:36Hiroshima is...
08:38It's a place called Yuu Training Center.
08:41It's the only place with a training center.
08:45At that time, 90% of the fans were old men and women.
08:50It's a very old place.
08:52When you get there, you'll see a hill of despair.
08:57A hill of despair.
08:59It's a very long hill.
09:01There's a hill that goes up diagonally.
09:03If you think you've climbed the hill, there's another step.
09:07If you've climbed it, you'll finally see Yuu Training Center.
09:11It's probably a walking course.
09:14It's a walking course in Yuu Town.
09:1890% of the old men and women came for their health.
09:23In addition to that, we have a baseball field.
09:26It's a very good baseball field.
09:30I don't think so.
09:33Sometimes we run.
09:35If you go up there in the middle of the summer, you'll die.
09:38That's how steep the hill is.
09:40If you go up there in the middle of the summer, you'll die.
09:43It's a rehabilitation.
09:44It's a rehabilitation.
09:47You're taking a walk, aren't you?
09:49Rehabilitation is strange.
09:51I'm taking a walk.
09:53I'm sorry. I'm taking a walk.
09:54I'm taking a walk.
09:55I've been swept to Omiya.
09:58You're the one who's going to die.
10:08Hurry up and write your name and go to jail.
10:11It's not just one sentence.
10:13Igun's contract has been terminated.
10:16He's still kind.
10:19It's been 14 years.
10:26Next, let's talk about the unique baseball fields of both leagues.
10:30First of all, it's the famous stadium of the Instant League.
10:33Here it is.
10:35It's a baseball field where the Hielma 9 is born.
10:38What is this?
10:40Igun's game is basically a day game.
10:43It's the only Yokosuka stadium.
10:45It's the home ground of the Bay Stars.
10:47There's a nighter.
10:50But Yokosuka's nighter is...
10:52After three times, it's really dark.
10:56It's so dark that you can hardly see it.
11:00The pitchers' balls that come out after three times...
11:03It looks like the speed of a stopper croissant.
11:08It's so dark that I can't see it.
11:11If you throw a slider, it disappears.
11:14It comes out for a moment and disappears again.
11:18It's really dark.
11:21It's true.
11:23It disappears once in a dark place.
11:25It comes out for a moment and goes back to a dark place.
11:28What do you think, Mr. Uchikawa?
11:30It was dark.
11:32When I joined the first year of high school,
11:34I thought the nighter was like this.
11:36I thought it was hard to see.
11:38As soon as I joined the first year of high school,
11:40the world was different.
11:42It was really bright.
11:45At that time, I thought that Yokosuka's stadium was dark for the first time.
11:51Next is the stadium of the Western League.
11:54Here it is.
11:56It's a stadium with an interesting home run.
11:59What do you think, Mr. Yamazaki?
12:01It's a stadium in Shinshoji.
12:05It's about 80 meters wide.
12:08It's dark.
12:10It's all home runs.
12:13Really?
12:14It's true.
12:15One day, I hit the ball in the center.
12:18The ball flies.
12:20The ball hit the back screen.
12:22In the old days, when you hit a ball in an anime,
12:26there is a scene where the ball goes round and round.
12:29When I hit the ball, I thought,
12:31It's like this.
12:35When I hit the ball, the ball went round and round.
12:38I thought it was the same as in the anime.
12:42It's a stadium with a home run like that.
12:45What do you think of the stadium of the Western League?
12:48Osaka is now a beautiful stadium.
12:51Before that, there was a home base in Kobe.
12:54There was a sub-stadium next to it, and the Western League played there.
12:57It's an old stadium.
13:00The artificial grass was rubbed against the ground.
13:05It's like a lawn.
13:07It looks like it's been plowed.
13:11It's a nostalgic scene.
13:13It's dangerous.
13:14The spike doesn't go in.
13:16Everyone slips.
13:20Please do it properly.
13:22I'm worried.
13:24Yamasaki, there was another stadium you were looking forward to.
13:27There was no home stadium in the Dragon.
13:31I always went to the stadium in Agui.
13:36It's near my house.
13:41When I went to Agui Stadium, I went to the stadium an hour earlier than everyone else.
13:46Me and Masa Yamamoto.
13:50We came an hour early.
13:52There was a place where a lot of beetles were caught in midsummer.
13:58After catching a lot of beetles, I went to practice.
14:04Did you catch that many?
14:05There were a lot of beetles.
14:07We decided to keep it a secret between Masa and I.
14:11I didn't even tell the kids.
14:14There were a lot of beetles here, so I didn't tell anyone.
14:18We went to the stadium together.
14:20What did you do an hour earlier?
14:23There are still many stadiums in the Western League.
14:28A stadium where it is impossible to hit 30%.
14:32I introduced this before.
14:35This is the base of the Hiroshima 2nd Army.
14:37It's a practice field in the middle of the mountain.
14:44The foul zone is very wide.
14:46I don't know if I said this before.
14:49Look at this.
14:50This is the foul zone.
14:53Normally, if you think you've hit a foul, you'll be caught and out of the game.
14:59It's easy to get caught.
15:00The probability of being caught is reduced.
15:02If a Hiroshima 2nd Army player hits 30% in this base, he's a terrible player.
15:08It's impossible to hit more than 90%.
15:09He's probably a Major League player.
15:12Isn't it hard to defend?
15:14It's hard to defend.
15:15Let's say you throw a bad ball into the foul zone.
15:18You'll be out of the game twice.
15:21You'll be out of the game three times.
15:27You'll be out of the game twice.
15:29The young players in Hiroshima will be trained and will be able to defend well.
15:35I'm saying this in the sense that it's great.
15:40I was the catcher.
15:41I was taught this when I was here.
15:44If you catch the ball and throw it, it will take a long time.
15:50If you catch the ball, you'll be thrown out of the game.
15:53There are two ways to get in.
15:56If you catch the ball, you'll be thrown out of the game.
16:01If you catch the ball, you'll be thrown out of the game.
16:04There's a distance.
16:05If you make a mistake, there's a third, a short, and a left.
16:09If you make a mistake, there's a third, a short, and a left.
16:11Mr. Okawa, what do you think?
16:12I was defending the left at the time.
16:15It's too far to defend.
16:17You said that, too.
16:19Is it that far?
16:20In a normal pitch, the left is short and forward defense.
16:28That's too much.
16:33There are more than three types of benches and lines.
16:37The visitor team is a type of bench.
16:40I wanted to defend the left from a type of bench.
16:44I didn't want to stand up.
16:47Mr. Uchikawa, you used this pitch when you were a Western player, right?
16:52I was a Western player when I was young.
16:55I heard rumors about this pitch.
16:57I heard rumors about this pitch.
16:59I heard rumors about this pitch.
17:01I had a chance to go to the U-9 when I was injured and adjusting to the second team.
17:05I had a chance to go to the U-9 when I was injured and adjusting to the second team.
17:07I heard rumors about this pitch.
17:09I heard rumors about this pitch.
17:11I was excited.
17:13I want to go to the U-9.
17:15I want to go to the U-9.
17:17When I saw this pitch, I thought,
17:20I thought,
17:22I thought,
17:24I thought,
17:26I thought,
17:28I thought,
17:30I thought,
17:32I thought,
17:34The audience is a picnic-like TODA pitch.
17:38Mr. Ueda, what does this mean?
17:41I think it's a good story.
17:43Mr. EAST is TODA.
17:45It's a great pitch.
17:47In the second team game, there is a paid place.
17:53The red part is free.
17:55The red part is free.
17:57However, the third-rate bench is behind.
18:00It's a base.
18:01It's a base.
18:03It's a base.
18:05It's a base.
18:07You can watch baseball while you're on a picnic.
18:11That's great.
18:13You can watch it freely.
18:15It's okay.
18:17It smells like fried chicken during the game.
18:19It smells like fried chicken during the game.
18:21Because I'm on a picnic.
18:23But you can't watch it in summer.
18:25It's hell.
18:27There's nothing to block you.
18:28It's too hot in the summer.
18:31I measured the temperature once.
18:33The temperature of the bench is 55 degrees.
18:37If you look at it from the bench,
18:40You can't see the lower body of the player in the shade.
18:43Really?
18:45You have it now, right?
18:47This picture is the current one, right?
18:49In the old days, the bench wasn't that big.
18:52The audience was coming forward.
18:55It's about five meters.
18:56There's a luggage behind it.
18:58I was worried that it might be stolen.
19:00That's right.
19:02This is a very good TODA.
19:05It's beautiful.
19:07It's such a TODA base.
19:09It was a big deal once, wasn't it?
19:12Arakawa was rebelling once.
19:16The base was completely used.
19:20I used it all at once.
19:22Baseball tools, net.
19:24We put the tools in the freehub.
19:28All of them were washed to Omiya.
19:31I don't understand.
19:33Hey, you.
19:35You're too much.
19:40You're too much.
19:44With that momentum and distance.
19:47This is Omiya.
19:49Did you measure it?
19:51I measured it.
19:52It's about this size.
19:55I sold my home run.
19:58I got 10,000 yen from the organizer.
20:0510,000 yen?
20:07Let's move on.
20:09Let's look at the contract of the two-time champion.
20:13Hurry up and change your name to Hanko.
20:17There's no mistake.
20:19I can't do such a good thing.
20:20What are you going to do?
20:22I'm still kind.
20:24I'm not in the first team.
20:26I don't have any bargaining material.
20:28When I get a seat, I write my name and address here.
20:32That's exactly what it feels like.
20:34I see.
20:36But if you're active, your annual salary will go up, right?
20:38In the first year of the second team, I worked hard.
20:42I don't have a good record, but I went to the first negotiation.
20:46I was told that my annual salary would go up by 30%.
20:50I thought I did it.
20:52But I was told, don't get me wrong.
20:54It's because I'm in the second team.
20:56I was surprised.
20:58In the second year, I got even better results.
21:01I thought I was in the second team.
21:03But I was told that my annual salary would go up by 500,000 yen.
21:05Don't get me wrong.
21:07It's because I'm in the second team.
21:10It's not sweet.
21:12Mr. Imanari, you have a sad memory in the second team.
21:16This is a story from the Western era.
21:19I won the first place in the Japanese Farm Championship.
21:22It was my birthday that day.
21:24I got a present on that day.
21:26I was so happy.
21:28I experienced myself and did my best at the farm.
21:31I thought baseball was good.
21:33When I got back to the hotel in Miyazaki, everyone was shaking hands.
21:38The head coach said,
21:40I was in my third year.
21:42He said, you did it.
21:44He didn't look at me at all.
21:46I was wondering what was going on.
21:48I went back to my room.
21:50He said, come to the office in Koshien tomorrow at 10 o'clock.
21:54I was surprised.
21:58It was the loudest birthday party in Japan.
22:02I went home.
22:03The head coach of the second team.
22:05He said, we've been using you badly for the past two years.
22:10He said, I'll talk to you for an hour or two today.
22:13I slapped him on the desk.
22:16The head coach said, stop it. It's your birthday.
