The purpose of this study was to examine the reproduction of high school baseball "narratives" and its media effects focusing on media representations of the change in approach for competition and practice. Previous studies about high school baseball "narratives" focused on analyzing the "narratives" as a fixed structure based on ritual theory. However, only few studies have focused on the fluctuation, including the fluctuation and change, of the "narratives" itself. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the reproduction of the "narratives", while considering the change in approach for competition and practice in recent years. In the national high school baseball tournament in Japan called "Koshien", tactical change from only one pitcher completing whole games to successive pitching has occurred in recent years. Following this tactical change, we analyzed messages and significations from media representations of complete games and games with successive pitching by a media text analysis of the sport documentary entitled "Fierce Battle Koshien"(entitled "Netto Koshien" in Japanese).<br>The analysis showed that the media representation of complete games focused on the signification of "the spirit conveyed by the pitcher overcoming difficulties", whereas that of games with successive pitching concentrated on the signification of "friendship conveyed by two pitchers working together". It seems that both semantics "spirit" and "friendship" are elements of traditional high school baseball "youth narratives". The present result therefore suggests that media representations in practice change within the possible interpretative framework of "youth narratives". Further, the study suggests that through that media representation the framework of high school baseball "narratives" itself has been reproduced with the internal fluctuation of "how 'youthfulness' or 'youth' should be".

<p> メディアによる伝達を通じて歴史的に生成されてきた高校野球の「物語」は、人々の高校野球に対する解釈を規定しているとされ、主に神話論的アプローチによって、その構造を捉える試みがなされてきた。しかしながら、高校野球の「物語」は固定的な構造というよりも、種々の力学関係の中で流動的に再生産されているものとみられ、その変動を読み解く研究が求められているといえる。そこで本研究は、朝日放送テレビのドキュメンタリー番組『熱闘甲子園』を対象として、特に投手を主題化した映像および言説を分析することで、高校野球の「物語」が変動する過程について考察することを目的とした。</p><p> 競技特性上、「物語」の中心として主題化されやすい投手に関して、甲子園大会の戦術は近年、「先発完投型」から「継投型」へとシフトしてきている。分析の結果、『熱闘甲子園』ではこうした戦術の変化によって、投手を描く主題を「精神力」から「友情」へと置き換えていく様相がみられるなど、メディアに具現化される「物語」の変化が看取された。この結果から、高校野球の「物語」が、実践における変化によって変容しつつ構造化される過程の一側面が示唆された。</p>
