This should be another game where a team is up against it. Kounan returns to Koushien having defeated Itoman and Okinawa Shougaku. They're not an offensively powered squad, so it'll be up to the pitching to hold serve. We've heard that story before.
Iwamichisuikan returns after defeating Risshoudai Shounan and Unfortunately no Kaisei to supllant the form.
Also both teams are batting rather poorly compared to other schools. This has the looks of a 1-0 game

____________________________________________________________
14:05 - First pitch!
Top 1st
Leadoff runner on for Iwamichisuikan as Tanka singles to center. But Araki almsot grounds into a double play, and Ab actually does.
Bottom 1st
Shaky for Andou as Higa draws a walk. After a bunt, he walks Gushiken.
2 down for Ishikawa and he hits a slow chopper to the right side. Andou misses it and no one is in position to back it up! Higa scores on the defensive gaffe and Kounan leads 1-0!
Bottom 2nd
Sunagawa puts Kounan in position for another run when he bombs a ball off the fence in right for a triple.
Ganaha not squeezing, but strikes out.
SQUEEZE!!! Hiyane tries to lay down the squeeze but misses! Sunagawa is hung out to dry and there's 2 outs! Hiyane Ks and the great chance for Kounan is frittered away!
Bottom 3rd
After 3 straight walks with 2 outs, Tanaka comes in from LF to take the hill. Andou goes to CF, and Suyama to LF. And gets a flyout to right.
Bottom 4th
uh, everyone returns back to their positions. I think I've figured out the pitching changes. Tanaka comes in from LF when there's a pinch.
So when Sunagawa singles, and advances to 3rd on a hit-and-run with Higa, he enters the game, and get a foul fly to Abe.
Top 5th
Murakami with a ball to deep right. Off the wall! He's booking it around 2nd, and just gets into 3rd. Big chance to tie the game.
Kamino does it! Ball to left center and Sunagawa can't get to it!
Murakami scores and it's 1-1!
Unfortunately, Iwamichisuikan can't muster more than that as Fujiwara and Matsumoto fly out.
Bottom 5th
Once again Andou returns to the mound, and gives up 2 singles. And that is the official end of Andou. Tanaka takes over at P while #15 Matsumoto replaces Andou.
Ishikawa flies out to center, and that's deep enough to score Gushiken. Kounan retakes lead at 2-1 as we head to the break.
Rest of game
This game is literally taking forever because there is a pitching change every inning. Tanaka comes in from LF to take the mound, then returns to LF at the start of the next inning.
It works to some extent. Of the 11 inherited runners he has, 2 have scored.
In the top of the 8th, Tanaka is harmlessly hit with 2 out.
Araki follows that up with a single through the left side. Still 2 outs though.
And then out of nowhere. Abe drives a ball off the wall in left center, and what seemed like a game out of reach was not anymore because it is 4-3 with the douten runner in scoring position..
Then a wild pitch puts that run 90 feet away. Then Hiyane walk Izumi.
Then Hiyane releases another wild pitch and Abe walks home to tie the game?! It's 4-4?!
And now Murakami walks. And Ueno walks? Somehow we're manrui??
And #13 Hashi to hit for Suyama.
And he singles to right? One run scores, the second run is cut down at the plate.
So when this game seemed well in hand, it's completely reversed and now Iwamichisuikan leads 5-4?
Bottom 8th
New 3B Seo has the ball find him first up, from PH #16 Ninomiya no less, and it goes off of him for an error. He's natually bunted over.
And then after being warned sever times, Tanaka balks moving the douten runner 90 feet away.
Naka fly to center. Abe, having moved from 3B charges at the ball. PR Toguchi tags up! Throw home... Relay from Araki...
OUT!!! Somehow that throw gets there in time and Kounan is denied the douten run!
Bottom 9th
So will this strategy of Iwamichisuikan's actually work? They just have 3 outs left to go, but with the 3-4-5 batters up.
Gushiken's hard grounder eats up Kamino alive. Leadoff batter on as they're looking to bunt. #14 Takana comes to run for him. And the bunt is completed.
Ishikawa comes through! Base hit to right! Takana coming home... throw in.. SAFE!!! Kounan has tied the game!
And now Sakumoto bunts the sayonara runner into scoring position as #18 Shiroma come in to hit.
SINGLE TO LEFT! Throw home... LATE!!! Kounan has come back to win 6-5 at the very last!
I really don't know what to make of this game. Iwamichisuikan implemented a strategy I had considered if I ever became a kantoku myself (which is in la la land). And it almost worked. But I think they leaned on Tanaka too much and he fell apart at the end.
Which is a shame. It takes some mental fortitude to continuously be put into high leverage situations and get out of them. Tanaka did that when coming in "relief" during an inning. But pressed into full service it might have been too much.
Hey, I give credit to Suemitsu-kantoku to thinking out of the box. Not often you would see something like that where old traditions are hard to break. Just fell short here.

Day 4 - Game 4 - Iwami Chisuikan (Shimane) vs. Nishiwaki Kougyou (Hyogo)
Well, I think today's games have been rather exciting/surprising so far. We finish out the day with two schools who are "new" faces to the scene.
Now Iwami Chisuikan is not new. But they are representing their school for the first time since they changed their name from Gonokawa. Their road this year wasn't easy as they had to survive both Kaisei and Risshoudai Shounan.
Now while the offense put up a lot of runs, I think their 2-1 game against Kaisei is probably more indicative of their offensive abilities.
The crowds are out in force to support home Nishiwaki Kougyou. You could call them the cardiac kids of Hyogo. First was a 14-inning affair against Awaji Mihara where they needed 2 runs in the 8th for the tie. Then they gave up a 1-run lead in the 9th to win in 10 over Kakogawa Nishi, and then walked off on both Akashi Shougyou and in the finals Touyoudai Himeji.
They may not be strong in any particular thing, but they appear to have the guts that endear people to Hanamaki Higashi.

____________________________________________________________
16:00 - First Pitch!
Top 1st
Yuuta drives the first pitch into left center for a leadoff single! And now Oota is called for a balk! Kitani-kantoku calls for a quick conference.
Uh oh. Sakamaki with a hard ball back up the middle past Yamanaka. No throw home and just like that Iwami Chisuikan is up 1-0!
Now #3 batter Saitou bunting and he pops it up! Nishizawa under it for the 1st out.
Cleanup batter Nishida grounds to Hieda for the 2nd out.
And Suemitsu-kantoku pushed the action too far as Sakamaki goes for 3rd. Nishizawa snaps throws and he's out by a country mile to end the inning.
Well, it could have been worse, but Nishiwaki Kougyou will play from behind.
Bottom 1st
Imai with a slow bounder up the 3rd base line. Ootsuka charging in, throws... SAFE! Boy that looked awfully close there, but Imai gets the call!
Kitani-kantoku calling for the bunt and Takami lays a beauty to advance the runner.
Yamanaka with a to the right side, Yuuta charging in... boots the ball!! Everyone's safe!! Nishiwaki Kougyou thanks to some fortunate bounces are challenging to tie the game right back!
Oota high chopper! But it says near home! Imai can't advance as Itou Naruto fires to 1st for the 2nd out!
Murakami goes down, slices it the other way.. FAIR!! Fair down the left field line! Imai scores! Yamanaka follows right behind and Nishiwaki strikes right back! It's 2-1 Nishiwaki!
Oh, this isn't good... is playing the visiting team getting to Tanabe? He plunks Morishita and prompts Suemitsu-kantoku to call time.
Tanabe finally ends the inning striking out Nishizawa to end the inning, but not before they relinquish the lead they just got!
Top 2nd
Satou striking right back for Iwami! He hits a ball to right center for a base hit! Takami coming in for right can't field it and Satou takes 2nd as Imai backs up the play.
No bunt for Ootsuka, but he pops it up! Yamanaka catches it in the outfield grass for the first out.
Asaki falls victim to climbing the latter and is Oota's first K.
Naruto fighting in his AB versus Oota, but on the 8th pitch swings under the forkball to retire the side!
Bottom 2nd
Hieda continuing Nishiwaki's offense with a blooper up the middle that lands just in front of the outfield grass!
Ishii lays down the bunt, but Tanabe fields it and goes to 2nd for one, relay to first... Double play!
That chance is wiped out and with Imai's groundout to 3rd, so is the side.
Top 3rd
Tanabe swings on the first pitch, but softly lines out to Hieda. Yuuta fills up the count, but can only groundout to short.
Sakamaki gets a late strike 3 call when it was certainly hard to tell the locations since Nishizawa was moving a lot. He can only smile as the side is retired.
Bottom 3rd
Takami a bit surprised when 1-2 pitch catches the outside corner for the first out.
Two out for Oota and he singles back up the middle.
Murakami with a booming drive to right, but it's not deep enough as Takami makes the catch for the 3rd out.
Top 4th
Oota's spotting of pitches isn't particularly good, but he's missing in the right places - though he walks Saitou to start the inning. Nishida trying to bunt the runner along, but fails and falls behind 1-2. Manages to fill up the count, but leans over and misses a fastball outside for the 1st out.
Oota doesn't let the walk get to him as Satou flies out to Murakami in foul territory, and Ootsuka grounds out to 2nd to end the inning.
Bottom 4th
Morishita with another base hit for Nishiwaki back up the middle. Nishizawa lays the bunt down, throws to 2nd... off Nishida's glove as its back to his right! All safe!
Hieda laying down the bunt changes direction and drags it up the 1st base side! Saitou's only play is to 1st.
Iwami worried about the bunt, but Ishii takes an outside the the other way and through the drawn in infield! Morishita scores and it's a 3-1 lead for Nishiwaki now!
Imai grounder to the left side! Nishida quickly runs it down, goes back to 2nd for one, throw to 1st...
SAFE! Imai beats the double play and Nishizawa scores to make it 4-1 Nishiwaki!
Takami grounds to 2ns to end the inning, but the home team is slowly pulling away.
Top 5th
I'm suffering from sleep loss right now, so I'll keep on trying to keep current.
Oota is chugging along relatively smoothly with a 3-run lead. Asaki hits a popup to Hieda. Naruto hits a fairly deep fly, but Takami has it for the 2nd out. And while Tanabe gets a single the best Yuuta can do is fly out to center to end the inning.
Bottom 5th
Seems to be either on or off for ace Tanabe. This inning it's his first clean 1-2-3 inning needing just 7 pitches to retire the heart of the Nishiwaki lineup, all on routine grounders.
So we head to the break with Nishiwaki holding a 4-1 edge and home field advantage.
Top 6th
Saitou hard comebacker to Oota, but he knocks it down and throws to 1st for the out.
Saitou works the count full, and doesn't bite on the forkball and earns a walk, his 2nd of the game.
Against Nishida, Oota doesn't miss and records his 2nd straight K on Nishida with a fastball that catches the bottom of the strike zone.
Satou keeps the inning going pulling a ball through the gap at short for a base hit. Mini chance for Iwami Chisuikan!
Ootsuka line shot to left... but right at Murakami for the 3rd out! Unlucky there for Iwami!
Bottom 6th
Tanabe settling down now trying to keep his team in it. Nishiwaki batters not making solid contact anymore as Morishita, Nishizawa and Hieda don't get the ball out of the infield.
Top 7th
#17 Adachi comes in the game for Morishita and takes over at 1B
Oota meanwhile continues to flummox the Shimane champions. His favorite hobby? Climbing the ladder on opposing pitchers. Asaki and Naruto become strikeout victims 6 and 7, while Tanabe swings on the first pitch and grounds to 1st. Side retired.
Bottom 7th
Ishii with a ball to the left isde, Nishida with the great stop and throw to get Ishii for the first out!
2 down, and Takami finally gets Nishiwaki's first hit in 3 innings with a ball through the right half of the infield!
Kitami not wasting any time with the opportunity! Takami takes off for 2nd and Naruto's throw is late!
Now it's the hit-and-run! Yamanaka grounds one to the right side! Nishida cuts in front of Satou, goes to 1st, and beats a head-sliding Yamanaka for the 3rd out.
Top 8th
Small delay as Yamanaka has some cramps after that play.
Yuuta with a foul fly to the right side. Adachi coming in, reaches back at the last minute and makes the catch!
Sakamaki making Adachi work with a slow bounder that he takes himself for the 2nd out.
Saitou up, and this time he gets on the old-fashioned way, he got a base hit back up the middle right where Oota vacated. But he's be stranded there when Nishida rolls another grounds ball to short to end the inning.
Bottom 8th
One down, Nishiwaki gets his 2nd hit off of the day on a grounder to the left side. He'd aggressively take 2nd, but got no throw. He'd be stranded there after Nishizawa popped out to Yuuya.
Top 9th
Defensive change for Nishiwaki as #14 Usui replaces Yamanaka at 2B.
Satou up, but he can't get on base, flying out to center.
Ootsuka does get on base with a single through the left side! #13 Matsushima hits for Asaki, and he hits a hard ball to 3rd! Ishii in front of it, but can't cleanly field it. All safe!
#17 Seto to hit for Naruto and perhaps drive in a run.
But he hits a fly to center! Imai catches it and there's 2 out!
The crowd really up and cheering with the home team one out away.
Tanabe up to try and keep his team alive. Fouls off a couple and falls behind...
SANSHIN!!
Tanabe takes a big looping swing, but misses and the game is over! Another first timer team in Nishiwaki Kougyou advances into the next round!
It seems odd how this game turned out, mostly because you could tell what Nishiwaki Kougyou's strategy against Iwami Chisuikan was. I don't know if this was they way they won the Hyogo super-regionals, but Oota didn't miss over the plate with his low pitches and Iwami Chisuikan just chased the high pitch over the plate.
Iwami Chisuikan was also somewhat unfortunate in the game, with a ball just fair down the 1st base line scoring 2 in the 1st, and then a slightly errant throw on a bunt in the 4th led to the other 2 runs. But the inability to adjust to Nishiwaki's strategy ultimately led to their downfall.

Murakami Kouhei (Nishiwaki Kougyou) - 2-4, 2B, 2 RBI
