"We must advise the team to start preparing early. For a player like this, as long as they develop normally over the next two years, adapting to professional matches will be a matter of seconds."
On the field, the game continued.
In the second half of the tenth inning, the lineup of Waseda Jitsugyo rotated to the latter half, with Sato Ken as the eighth batter and Egami Kenji as the ninth. Both were players known for their excellent defense but batting depending purely on luck.
Facing National Academy Kugayama, who were also performing well today, the two were relatively easily struck out by Kawaguchi Kiyotaka.
By the time it was Chongxin Shen Zhong's turn, the situation on the field had already become two outs, making it hard to stir up any waves — after a difficult full count struggle with Kawaguchi Kiyotaka, he was still caught by a highly deceptive outside pitch, missing the swing and being struck out in the end.
