NTV‘s “Going! Sports and News“, where KAT-TUN‘s Kamenashi Kazuya is a regular host, broadcasted Kamenashi’s stunning success with his “HR (home run) Project” after two and half years of training. His successful home run was broadcasted last Jan 13th (11:55, JST).
Kamenashi was able to hit the home run after the 3rd pitch,which was witnessed by Egawa (co-host in Going!), Nakata Sho (Nippon Ham baseball player), and Kawamura Ryo (NTV announcer) who were watching from the sidelines.
Upon realizing that he made a hit when the ball hit the stands, Kamenashi threw the bat and jumped with glee. “It was like a dream!” he commented.
As suggested by Softbank Hawk’s player, Matsunaka Nobuhiko, Kamenashi received a “champagne shower” to celebrate his victory back at the home base. Giant’s team manager, Hara Tatsunori, sent a congratulatory video to Going!, “I applaud you from the bottom of my heart.”
