The second collaboration video with FURUTA'S EQUATION [Atsuya Furuta's official channel] is now available on PERSOL Pacific League TV's official YouTube. This second collaboration video was realized in response to the great response to the collaboration video released in May of this year. The second video, titled "Fine Play Deliberation Committee," continues the same theme as the previous one, using footage of Pacific League plays from the 2025 season to rigorously deliberate whether a play generally considered a fine play is a "true fine play" in the eyes of the great players on defense.
Each of the five "deliberation committee members" evaluates each play on a scale of 0 to 3 points, and the total score is used to determine "NOT fine play" (0 to 8 points), "fine play" (9 to 11 points), and "super fine play" (12 to 15 points). infield defense In Part 3, the plays recommended by Hatsuhiko Tsuji and regular OBs of "Mondays also go to Patere" were picked up.
Among them, Week 3 regular T-Okada chose the play by the Saitama Seibu Lions ・・・ player born in Saitama Seibu Lions vs. Chunichi on June 13. Natsuo Takizawa It was a play by a player. Chunichi In the top of the 8th inning with the score tied and no outs runner, Mikiya Tanaka hit a ball that seemed to go between first and second base, but Takizawa jumped on it and catch. He immediately got up, fell down, and throw to first base, and made an excellent out. For this play, Ryota Igarashi and Yukifumi Okada gave it a score of 3 without hesitation, while Atsuya Furuta, Tsuji, and Sho Nakata gave it a score of 2. It seemed like such a super play that a perfect score would not be out of place, but what was the reason for the point deduction?
Mr. Furuta said, "This was a play that was full of energy," but he added, "I think I didn't need to jump in after I threw the ball at the end. Then Mr. Tsuji added, "Isn't that right? That part! Extra move!" The two seemed to have the same reason for the point deduction. Igarashi followed up with, "You fell down as a result of your strong rotation! But, as a former director, Igarashi commented, "Your core is a little weak! Tsuji's comment was loving and dry. Afterwards, a heated discussion ensued as they watched the video again.
Natsuo Takizawa 's excellent play was deemed perfect. What are the "loving reasons" for Furuta Atsuya and Tsuji Hatsuhiko's deductions?
