Atsushi Nomi Biography

Atsushi Nomi is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on May 28, 1979 in Hyōgo Prefecture, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan. Nōmi again opened the season with a game against the Giants, but he allowed 10 earned runs in 5 innings as the Tigers lost an early 4-run lead against their arch rivals. His performance began to pick up in May as he recorded double digit strikeouts in 5 consecutive starts, beating the previous league record of 4 set by Yutaka Enatsu (1971), Makoto Kito (1994) and Terry Bross (1995).

Nōmi fractured his right foot on May 2 while baserunning and was taken off the roster. He underwent rehab for several months and returned on September 9, where he pitched 7 innings against the Dragons and gave up 2 runs with 10 strikeouts. On September 18, he pitched 7 shutout innings in his start against the Giants in Koshien Stadium and recorded his fourth win of the season. His winning streak against the Giants continued on the 29th when he notched his 7th consecutive victory against the Tigers’ archrivals since July 2009, which placed 2nd to Shigeru Kobayashi’s franchise record of 8 consecutive wins. Nōmi recorded one more win in September and was named the month’s MVP. He finished the season 8-0 with an ERA of 2.60.

In March, Nōmi participated as a relief pitcher for Japan’s National Team in the 2013 World Baseball Classic but was replaced after giving up a 2-run home run to Puerto Rico’s outfielder Alex Ríos that ended Japan’s 2-time WBC reign.

Nōmi went on a streak in his next 11 starts, recording 9 more victories. He finished the season 13-9 and placed 9th in the league in innings pitched (165), 4th in ERA (2.62), and 2nd in strikeouts (154). In addition, he won 4 consecutive starts against Giants pitcher Tetsuya Utsumi and recorded the lowest ERA of 1.45 against the Hiroshima Carp (4 wins in 7 starts).

Despite these achievements, Nōmi finished the season with his worst record of 9-13 (most losses in the league) due in part to a lack of stability in the mound. Nōmi did improve during the postseason, where he pitched a stellar second game in the 1st stage of the Climax Series against the Carp (October 12, Koshien). He surrendered 5 hits in 8 shutout innings, and the game ended in a 0-0 deadlock, the first in Central League CS history. Despite the tie, the Tigers advanced to the final stage since they won the 1st game and ties were awarded to the team with the better season record. Nōmi again delivered a quality start in the deciding game of the CS final stage, where he allowed only 2 runs in 5 innings and secured the Tigers’ spot in the Japan Series, their first participation since 2005.
