Relief from the middle of an unfamiliar time. “I wasn’t nervous,” despite Nishimura’s worries that “it was a difficult scene.” Immediately after the pitch, two hits scored two points, but four innings after the fourth inning was one hit. Armed with a fastball, he scored 2/3 in the 4th inning with 3 hits and 1 run. The team scored 6 points in the 5th inning, reversing the difference of up to 6 points.
