The other party is a prestigious school representing Hyogo ken, Japan. A shortstop owner Kaito Kaito (3 years) was elected last year's high school Japan national team. I am looking forward to seeing the players growing while playing the game with the strong team and the strong four.

I try not to think strategy with prejudice. I would like to respond in the game.
- How to appoint a pitcher
Talking with Yamaguchi Naoya (3 years) and Yuichi Ikeuchi (3 years), they told them to keep them both on standby. Depending on the state of the athlete and game expansion, it may become a joint.
- Team players who become key people
I called Ikeuchi in my room of the residence and talked. He told him that his performance was not impressive, but he said that he was doing a great job as the captain. I want you to pull the team with the highest priority to win the next race. (Kota Fujii, Mihoko Terada)
