When Lin Guanglai hit the baseball into the stands on his very first at-bat of the game, the commentator from Fukuoka TV Station seemed to go mad, jumping up from his seat and shouting in excitement:
"Lin Guanglai! Lin Guanglai!! Lin Guanglai!!! A home run on the first at-bat, a home run on the first at-bat! This is a genius, a genius way beyond his time, defying logic, belonging to Fukuoka, belonging to our SoftBank Team's genius! This home run symbolizes our determination to win, I have reason to believe—the 2014 Pacific League victory will ultimately belong to our Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks!"
As a dedicated commentator, these words really shouldn't have come from him; even if they were meant to be said, they should have been reserved for when everything is settled.
