Playback ’14] “Swing and Boom, Hit and Shoo! Shigeo Nagashima gives “hot-blooded guidance” to boys.
Baseball School held again this year
Initially, it was reported at the time that the baseball school was to take Shinozuka, Matsumoto, and other disciples of the legendary “Hell’s Ito Camp” held in 1979, when Mr. Ito was manager, on a nationwide tour, but this did not happen. However, it seems that this did not happen.
However, the baseball school at the Shigeo Nagashima Memorial Iwana Stadium in Sakura City, Mr. Nagashima’s hometown, was held every year after that. However, he has been absent since 2006, when he was hospitalized for gallstones, until this year.
The prolonged hospitalization at that time caused Mr. Mister to lose muscle strength, which he had regained for a time through rehabilitation.” Even when he was named as a candidate for the torch runner for the ’20 Tokyo Olympics, it was impossible for him to participate. However, while the event was postponed to ’21, he resumed rehabilitation and recovered his strength. During the Olympic torch relay, he was supported by Sadaharu Oh (84), Hideki Matsui, and others, and his slow walk across the National Stadium was broadcast nationwide.
Mr. Oh was not present at the baseball school held on November 2 this year. However, in his message to the children, Mr. Matsui called out to them as follows: “My baseball has always been about baseball.
My baseball is ‘Train your best,’ which I always repeat in the baseball class. It is. Challenge yourself in the events you are best at: pitching, hitting, defending, and running.”
I am sure that the baseball boys who have been trained by Mister will be a part of the future of the baseball world.
