Perhaps due to the popularity of professional baseball, the number of people visiting batting centers is increasing. Adults swing their bats with all their might at batting centers, hitting back the ball. At 200 yen for 28 balls per game, it was an affordable price for children, so many children at the time imitated the batting form of professional baseball players. Photographed in Saitama Prefecture in 1977 (Showa 52).
