In Judgment (Judge Eyes), the Yoshida Batting Center is a location in Kamurocho, where you can go and participate in Batting courses. There are 16 normal courses and 2 extra ones you gain access to after completing the first 16, and you must complete all of them for Shop Missions for this location. This guide shows how to complete all Judgment Batting Center Courses.
Each course always has pitches in the same spot, so you can follow this guide for completing all of the courses. You have to place the ball icon in the square the ball will go through when entering the strike zone, then swing at the correct time, which is when the outer yellow circle is basically even with the ball icon. This will make you hit the ball squarely and straight up to the home run part of the wall.
Home Run courses require you to hit a specific number of home runs and are slightly harder because of this. Challenge courses require you score a minimum point total by getting runners around the bases enough times, but if you hit home runs every time like you should by following the guide then you’re just getting one point every time.
For an easier time with batting you should get the items from Shuichi Hatano, who is a friend who will appear in the hallway to the right of the batting cages after you complete a couple batting courses. He first sells you a set of batting gloves for 3,000 Yen, then after you complete a total of 5 courses he sells you a golden bat for 30,000 Yen. You want to buy these as soon as you can, as they make the batting much easier by giving you a much larger area you can swing and get home runs with.
Notation for batting follows the above image, the number shown is which box the ball will go through, so is where you should aim your swing cursor. As a general rule, if the starting location for the throw icon is in the same box as shown it will be a fastball and go straight to that box at a quick speed. If it is in a different box than the indicated one it will swing into the indicated box. Balls that swing further will start out slower, but in the last few courses the hard curveballs move very fast so you need to be aware of that.
You don’t need to get a perfect score on any of these to progress, just hit the minimum score requirement which will complete all Shop Missions for this location.

My bad just read you have too complete the home run and challenge courses.But I’ve completed around 9 in total only could buy the batting gloves no option too buy the golden bat ?
Gage says
Might have to leave and come back after doing something else, or require more story progress to have him give them. I didn’t see anything on the JP Wiki about a progress requirement for him giving the bat, and I got both in Premium Adventure

Ace of Japan Lv1: 9-4-8-2-6-7-3-1-6-9
Ace of Japan Lv2: 9-2-7-1-8-6-7-4-3-9

You’re reading the numbers upside down. I have them labeled bottom left to top right like a keyboard number pad. You’re reading them top left to bottom right, so basically flipping the top and bottom row.
Marcus Lundgren says
I’m immensely grateful for this! I want to hug and kiss you always.
Rango says
