◆ Pacific League: Nippon-Ham vs. Orix Buffaloes (April 4th, Escon Stadium)

The idol group "Cho Tokimeki Sendenbu" appeared at the pre-game ceremony, with Hitoka Sakai throwing first baseman pitch. She wound up and threw the ball from her left hand, but it went wide behind hitter Yuki Kiyomiya. However, she still had a big smile on her face and livened up the stadium.

Before pitch, he received advice from Kitayama and Yamamoto of Nippon-Ham who told him, "You'll get nervous and stiff, so move your arms widely." He recalled excitedly, "I don't usually get this nervous, but I've never played baseball in my life before. In physical fitness tests, I can only throw the ball about 7 meters, so I'm really not good at ball sports. When they asked me to do it, I wondered if I could do it, but I practiced really hard."

Last year, she had strong ties with Escon, serving as an "Escon Tokimeki Ambassador" and collaborating with "Seimiya Friends" at a fan appreciation event. On this day, she also interacted with Kiyoko, the leader of "Seimiya Friends," and hinted at the possibility of another collaboration, saying, "I heard from her that she wants to dance with us again and is very enthusiastic, so we might see us together again."

The Fighters Girls will perform a fox dance between inning, and a special live performance will be held after the game.
