When the name was read out, there was a roar of “Oh!” from the audience. Tsunoda, who appeared in a Giants uniform, wears number 723 and is “Natsumi.” When Tsunoda went up to the mound and pitched, it soared quite high in the shape of a mountain and fell on a straight trajectory, causing the batter to miss! Although it took one bounce behind home plate, the pitch was spectacular. This is the magic ball “Tomoe Nage”, which is reminiscent of Tsunoda’s Tomoe Nage, in which the opponent is thrown into the air.
