Takabe Eito's excellent base running stands out

On June 15, 2025, the third match of the "Japan Life Sepa Exchange Match" against Tokyo Yakult. In the middle of the inning, Daito Yamamoto scored four runs with two runs in two consecutive at-bats, but in the top of the seventh, starter Boss pitcher carried the runner and Fumiya Ono pitcher hit an RBI hit, making the score 4-4. After the 8th inning, Shota Suzuki pitcher and Shunsuke Nakamori pitcher connected with no runs and connected to the attack in the bottom of the ninth.

When the leadoff player Yudai Fujioka got on base with a hit, Eito Takabe was appointed as a substitute runner. During the sacrifice bunt of Aito players who followed, he showed off his "God base running" to advance to third base. Kakunaka, who stood at bat here, was driven in with two pitches, but on the sixth pitch he brought to full count, he hit the slider in the outside corner without going against it and went to left. This became sacrifice fly, and this time I grabbed walk-off win in 1 hit.
