TOKYO (Reuters) - A Japanese high school pleaded for a

regional game to be abandoned after surrendering 66 runs in

less than two innings, local media reported on Thursday.



The coach of Kawamoto technical high school threw in the

towel to spare his pitcher's arm with his team losing 66-0 with

just one batter out in the bottom of the second.

The hapless hurler had already sent down over 250 pitches,

allowing 26 runs in the first inning and 40 in the second

before Kawamoto asked for mercy.

"At that pace the pitcher would have thrown around 500

pitches in four innings," Kawamoto's coach was quoted as

saying. "There was a danger he could get injured."

Opponents Shunshukan were officially credited with a 9-0

victory, giving the scoreline a tinge of respectability for the

luckless Kawamoto school.

hahahahahahahaha owned

sounds like when my baseball team won 23-0.. not as much rape, but rape
 
is that coach an idiot? why even let his pitcher throw saay...even 150 pitches. Even that is already rediculous. That kid's arm must be done for a while

 
becasue hes japanese and he expects the best. If he brang dishonor to his family, well.... youv'e seen the last samurai.

I think you might be japanese, Im just blatantly exagurating japanese culture, not serious.
 
That's the japanesse system.

Its not odd to pitch around 250 pitches per game then go again in 2-3 days.

It's their way on developing their pitchers

Dice-k did the same thing when he was in school, they said once he pitched like 15 innings for 300 pitches

something ridiculous like that.
