Sho Nakata's Summer is Over!

Discussion in the High School forum
Sho Nakata's Summer is Over!
The final game in Osaka prefecture has just ended, and it's Konko Osaka going to Koshien, not Osaka Toin.

Sho Nakata started on the mound for Osaka Toin, who allowed a first inning home run and fell behind 3-0. His squad scored one run in the bottom half of the frame but trailed the entire contest. Nakata was lifted, and Osaka Toin attempted a late rally, but fell short by a score of 4-3.

Konko Osaka makes their first appearance at summer Koshien (they have appeared in 1 spring tournament).

We will be deprived of seeing Nakata perform a follow-up to last year's splendid hitting display; we'll have to wait to see where he winds up.
About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
