On the 4th, three rookie players participating in Seibu Lions, Nichinan City, Miyazaki Prefecture, promoted the city's tourist attractions on their first day off.
The participants were the first draft pick, Taiga Kojima catcher (22) = Meiji University, the second draft pick, Hakua Iwaki (Hakua) pitcher (22) = Chuo University, and the third draft pick, Shun Akiyama outfielder (22) = Chukyo University. The first stop was at Udo Jingu Shrine, where it is said that if you throw a "luck ball" made of unglazed clay and it enters the square-shaped hollow in the "turtle stone," your wish will come true. Men are required to throw the ball with their left hand. Iwashiro prayed that he would be able to baseball play for a year without injury, and Akiyama prayed that he would play for the first team for a year, and succeeded twice. On the other hand, Kojima, who succeeded in throwing a piece into the bowl, revealed that he made two wishes: "The first time I threw for the team's Japan championship and got a broken piece, so next time I threw with the goal of playing for the first team.
Afterwards, we went to a beach for a barbecue using local ingredients, feasting on spiny lobster and Miyazaki beef, and enjoying draining the water using stones to end the day.
