It is a hot summer and even hotter summer Koshien competition. Tickets for the quarterfinals of the 107th National High School Baseball Championship have been sold out. The Japanese High School Baseball Federation reported on the 18th that tickets for the four games of the quarterfinals to be held on the 19th at Nishinomiya Koshien Stadium in Hyogo Prefecture were sold out. About 18 hours before the first game, all tickets for admission were sold out at 2 p.m. on the 18th. All the seats in the outfield went out. Of course, I don't even have a day ticket.
Four quarter-final matches will be held on the morning and afternoon of the 19th, with two matches each. Attention is focusing on the first game. Kyoto International High School (Kyoto-bu), the winner of last summer's Koshien tournament, and Yamanashi Hakwon (Yamanashi Prefecture), the winner of the 2023 spring Koshien tournament (starting high school tournament), will face each other for the semifinals.
As is widely known, Kyoto International High School, a Korean school, sings the national anthem in Korean when it wins the game. In the third round held on the 16th, he advanced to the quarterfinals with a 3-2 come-from-behind victory over Jinsei Hakwon (Kagawa Prefecture). He was dragged 1-2 and scored two runs in the eighth inning to change the flow.
The first quarterfinal match between Kyoto International High School and Yamanashi Academy High School begins in eight games in the morning. It is surprising that morning games are sold out during office workers' commuting hours and students' school hours.
The second match is also interesting. Last year's runner-up, Kanto Daiichi High School, and the same Tokyo representative, Nichidai High School, will collide. The summer Koshien tournament will feature 49 teams that passed 47 prefectural qualifiers. 인구가 많
