There have been plenty of good pitches, but it’s not every day you see a ceremonial pitch thrown at a decent speed. At least, that was before Japanese model Ami Inamura, who recently threw a ceremonial first pitch at 65 mph before a Nippon Professional Baseball game.
Ami Inamura has had her own share of baseball experiences, as she apparently played baseball for nine years from elementary school through junior high. During her years in junior high, she was a pitcher and first baseman in Japan’s senior league. She was also part of a recent Toyota commercial in which she showed her raw ability with a baseball bat. The commercial has gone viral and garnered over six million views on YouTube.
Ami Inamura (born January 13, 1996, in Tokyo, Japan) is a Japanese gravure idol, tarento, and sportscaster represented by Asai Kikaku.
Inamura Ami is a Japenese idol and model, who in 2015 was still seen as new to the scene at only three years.
Ami attended school in Tokyo. She played baseball for nine years from elementary school through to junior high. For three years in junior high, she played as pitcher and first baseman in Japan’s senior league.
