I don't pay attention to baseball, just learned about it from some manga recently.

Well you should watch with us. The current match is tied at the top of the 7th and there are three more games today.

>>77678551
The horror stories of Koshien pitch counts are legendary.
>>77678610
At least they aren't throwing a shitload of curveballs. It's mostly fastballs and sliders.
I remember my first time playing right field.
>>77678647
hello my fellow outfielder
who /centre field/ here?
Tenri wins.
YATAAAA
>>77678670
I played right field in my first year of high school. After, I played 2nd base mostly but I would play center field when our center fielder would pitch.
>>77678681
you're getting ahead of yourself, James Clapper.
>>77678670
here. Im pretty bad though probably have a fielding rate of 70 percent
>>77678602
wait, it's still updated?
>>77678634
Sliders are the only pitch that they've found a correlation with an increase in youth injuries.
>>77678708
For you
So is that team singing the Koshien theme during the commercials the winner from last year, or just some randos?
>>77678723
Really? The only difference between throwing a slider and fastball is the grip. Curveballs are what destroy your elbow.
It's ogre.
>>77678769
http://college.unc.edu/2011/10/22/curveballs-sliders-and-pitch-counts-surviving-life-as-a-pitcher-with-your-arm-intact/
Something I found pretty quick, matches up with what I was told in the mid 00's when I had surgery for my arm issues. Regardless, it's mostly the year round shit with club baseball never ending that causes issues. I think I went 5 years as a kid never having more than like 3 weeks off baseball.
>>77677837
it was to purify the team

use adblock man, if dont works, try again
>>77678532
still 12th inning, but the rule can change to nonstop sudden death (people in 3 bases and a 1 out) from next year
>>77678750
its a commercial paroding the exagerated drama of koshien
>>77678198
>disable adblock

>making dumbo cry again this year
cruel.
>>77678670
i dont play pro but i trained a lot myself alone to be a good center field
>>77678750

its from 2014
so do you guys actually like baseball or are you just weebs?
>>77679239
i love Baseball a lot, i always like to watch or play as possible
>>77679151
thanks man
>>77679239
i like baseball with the fewest homeruns possible.
ideally anything hit off the field would be a foul.
>>77679290
you´re welcome, enjoy the games with us also if you have any questions, please dont be afraid to ask
so today is myfirst day watching the tournament. Which team is the underdog?
>>77679345
to be honest, anyone exepct Osaka Toin
but the least favorites to win are Gunma and Ehime
>>77679345
Also, i recommend you use asahi stream beacuse it has some cool data, but you need disable adblock beacuse it loads only after ads
>>77679419
will do thanks
>>77679251
Thanks for memes Jap-Sama
do a lot of the future top japanese talent play in koshien? For example did Otani, Ichiro or Matsui play in the tournament?
>>77679535
Ichiro and Matsui played
IDK about Otani
but yeah, most players of NPB (Nippon Baseball League) come drafted from High School
>>77679535
I know for sure Otani played in at least one. But since there are so many schools it's hard to get into so I wouldn't be surprised if some of the top draft picks never made it, but then again they probably chose to all go to schools with great teams to ensure getting there
>>77679570
have about almost 9,900 HS that has baseball teams in japan
>>77679535
Matsui was famously intentionally walked 5 times in 5 at-bats at Koshien, his team lost the game.
>>77679345
In 2ch winning predictions
1 Kobe (179) - Tenri (167)
2 Sanbonmatsu (29) - Nishou(320)
3 Meihou (146) - Kamimura (197)
4 Sugao (242) - Aomori (99)
>>77679631
thanks BASED JAP GUY
>>77679631
>Sanbonmatsu (29)
>>77679679
so this is being a upset or unexpected by Japs in 2ch
>>77679593
And yet Osaka Toin will still be the best of all.
>>77679239
I like baseball and I didn't even realize there was such a big genre of baseball anime. Plus these threads are very comfy.
>>77679745
>And yet Osaka Toin will still be the best of all.
dont think even on it
>>77679760
>Plus these threads are very comfy
i plan make threads for NPB/KBO after koshien to keep the comfyness
besides NPB/KBO games are in unconfortable nights (1am or 5am ET)
>>77679679
looks like i'm cheering for three pines
it just me or is Sanbon's fielding seem super chill?
if gtheyve gotten this far it cant be laziness, are they actually confident?
>>77679795
based on 320-29 on 2ch i think that confidence
>>77679800
but they're the 29..... isnt it votes? a lower number would be worse
>>77679789
For playoffs we should have regular threads. Few of us will still be on the regular season train but I know last year we got plenty of people following the playoffs on /mlb/
>>77679827
i was thinking more in do it
playoffs will atract more people
>>77679827
>>77679853
Koshien is the most popular sports event in Japan... not going to get more activity than these threads get.
>>77679878
Japan Series atracts lot of people too and the games are epic as fuck
>>77679886
an mlb fan would prefer japan series over koshien i think
they're even chill when they're tagging out a 3rd base runner, damn.
>>77679915
an MLB fan only wants to watch teams from their home state.
>>77679917
i think that they dont saw yesterday´s game kek
>>77679915
i agree, they prefer see pro baseball more than school ones
>77679934
well i know lot of MLB fans that likes Asian baseball
>>77679631
>Sanbonmatsu (29) - Nishou(320)
nihon-kun is lower numbers better?
was it a vote predicting who would lose?
get comfy for some more chill fielding.
>>77680008
that was pretty chill
>>77680008
i think that we should make a meme dump thread for monday´s day off
>>77679988
i am very sure that it is being a upset
>>77680065
i dont know how much to trust a 2ch vote.
they're wrong about everything all the time.
they always vote for the worst anime of the season as the best anime of the season and the worst girl as the best girl.
Most upset game
Day 3
Kisarazu (389) - Nihon koku Ishikawa (23)
>>77679988
Probably because Sanbonmatsu is states school.
Jpn states school's baseball club is many restrictions and weak.
>>77680094
you meant public school?
what types of restrictions public schools have?
was that band playing pretty fly for a white guy? lel
>>77680109
probably less funding. Sanbonmatsu are my team now.
bit too chill there but its fine i guess.
>>77680109
low funding, not enough practice, lack of good player
sorry my english is so bad ;_;
>their fielding is so chill that asahi still hasnt made any highlights of the bottom inning
>>77680185
no problem, Jap-kun, i got what you said and what is this matters (^- ^)-b
>>77680185
low funding, not enough practice, lack of good player
i was thinking on that, since from i know about Japan, Public Schoolers are mostly the rejecteds from Privated Schools or for those ones that are too poor to make into Privated Schools
>>77679934
Not me.
>>77679944
We have a Discord with a few MLB fans who are getting into NPB. You should come and join us if you're interested, Ausanon

Meant that

Jap-Kun, how 2ch is reacting about it?
also do you can call more Japs to visit this thread?
>the east of city of tokyo
I just spent a lot of time trying to find the sports/baseball board on 2channel. I saw a lot of weird shit, but why are there so many toy/model boards?
WIZ
>>77680253
>why are there so many toy/model boards
beacuse anime figures and also modelism is pretty popular in japan, specially beacuse Gundam/Gunpla
Just how many doubles has Sanbonmatsu pulled off?
>>77680268
It looked like they had three or more separate Gundam boards. But I couldn't tell the difference.
>>77680278
from i saw, only one or two
way to fucking chill their......

we comeback now

Oh, okay. I've been tuning in and out since the boss has the game turned on at work but every time I turn up from my desk it feels like it's happened again.

>>77680597
i have a friend from Hokkaido, she fights karate and is black belt
>>77680597
btw i want visit japan too
>>77680589
fun fact: Japan owned half of the island, Sakhalin, above Hokkaido for decades, while the Soviets owned the other half. they had a Japanese/Russian border gate and the works. The Soviets took the whole Island back during the war and would have taken Hokkaido as well if the US went through with their ground invasion.
all of the Ainu on Sakhalin got kicked off after WWII as well.
>>77680611
>tfw you will never have a QT Hokkaido tomboy gf

hey dont tease him (im jealous)
>>77680664
>Ainu on Sakhalin got kicked off after WWII as well
poor Ainu people...
>>77680589
it's been a political strategy even before they were soviets to make their nation a landmass so large that it is unconquerable. if a bigger military ever came in and took the capital they would just make a new capital.
China has had a similar policy.... and they ended up fleeing from themselves and why Taiwan is a thing.
>>77680716
>why Taiwan is a thing
i dont think that China will annex Taiwan, it will get on this policy forever, also Russia seems that is more pro-taiwan than Pro-China
>>77680725
no you dont get it, Taiwan is literally China.
i mean current China (communist government) are the conquerors, the old chinese government moved to Taiwan.
being so big that you're unconquerable doesnt work so well when the conquerors are your own people.
>>77680737
i know what you wanted mean
but Taiwan people dont accept the China condition at point of post images censoring the name China from Popular Republic of China name (like they are from china) and use Taiwan even when they are competiting as China Taipei
Some of politicans can be pro-china but most of population arent happy with china and is very nationalist, China can have guns but Taiwan has international support
>>77680714
the Ainu basically don't exist anymore anyway. Every single tribe has inbred with the Japanese. It's akin to many native american tribes. They are so small and their bloodline has been so deluded by outside cultures that they are effectively an entirely different people now.

Tibet has had international support for decades as well, still hasn't stopped china from not giving a fuck.
If only the Japanese sided with the Allies during WWII. Manchukuo would still exist, Burma would be free, Taiwan would be free, Hong Kong would be free, China wouldn't be the leader in global pollution by a metric fuckton, and Mao would have been put in his place, sparing the lives of millions.

>>77680808
>Tibet has had international support for decades as well, still hasn't stopped china from not giving a fuck.
Tibet is less rich than Taiwan tho
>>77680809
TL:DR - Taiwan people are too self proud of Taiwan to be absorved by china 100%
>>77680425
>that background woman clapping alone
>tfw no qt kyushu gf
>>77680825
yeah but thats not what we were talking about or what i meant.
Current Taiwan is literally a result of the old Chinese government retreating. i mentioned it in relation to Russia expansionary policy that led them to Japan.
if the same ever happens in Russia there will be Russia and Moscow (or wherever they decide to move the capital).

holy fuck the bunt REALLY pulled through that time
THREE RBI BUNT
the only anime I have ever watched is the first 30 episodes of bleach what should I watch next?
you see faggots, bunts could work when they're not expecting them. but if you bunt literally every time there's a runner on first it works far less often and even if it does work it's usually pointless anyway
Is this the last game of the day?

>>77681530
Pretty sure even they weren't expecting a bunt with the bases loaded and 2 outs, so it worked. I like bunting for hits, a speedy guy who bunts well can leg out at least half of his attempts as long as he doesn't do it often enough that they're fully expecting it and playing way in.
anyway these faggots every time there's an opportunity for a sacrifice bunt they take it, defense always expects it and the bunts """"work"""" maybe half the time.
also walk off grand slam fucking please

what? that was a strike...
an eephus in a tie game in extras I think I am in love
Best game of the tournament.
>bounced over the third baseman
when will manlets learn?
>>77681573
I mean it might, there's no real difference between bunting for a hit with bases loaded 2 outs as there is with bases empty no outs. Might actually be easier with bases loaded since there's no way they expect it. Just no one ballsy enough to try it, or since at most it would yield one run probably it might just not seem worth it. though thinking about I'm pretty sure I've seen it before.
pitcher is really choking
>>77681585

at this rate he's gonna walk in the winning run

>>77681648
that was a close pitch
do the winners of the tournament gather dirt too? or are they left without any of the precious, historic, illustrious, world renowned black koshien mud?
I think that's the true prize here, who cares about a championship if you can't have your precious bag of dirt?
>>77681654
the winner gets besides thropies and stuff, the Victory Flag
the second get second place flag
both teams can get dirt as much they wants after the cerimonies

>>77681659
>both teams can get dirt as much they wants after the cerimonies
ok, that's all that matters
but I can just picture all the players standing around awkwardly being unable to bend down like their defeated foes, out of respect for all of the fallen. They clearly really want to gather some of the beautiful black dirt, it's the only reason they wanted to get to koshien in the first place. In the end they go home dirtless, bags completely empty, forever a reminder that they stepped in the grand stage of koshien and left without anything significant to show for it, just some meaningless trophy that they can have replicated anywhere.
if only they had failed a few more sacrifice bunts
>>77681630
>>77681651
the anime ends with the Koshien hopefuls failing despite their best efforts, they gather up their bags of holy Koshien dirt.
the captain decides with the team that they should all combine their koshien dirt to plant a tree.
as the captain becomes a man and a father and then a grandfather the tree grows into a tall strong tree. the captain's grandson's yakyuu team is going to be heading to the koshien now and so the grandfather remembers the tree and goes to see it and decides to cut down a branch of it and works to make it into a bat that he gives to his grandson.

>a fucking double rainbow.webm
>>77681684
If you're gonna win, start diving on every play or into every base. Get some dirt in/on that uni
>>77681692
so that's why they dive into first, it all makes sense now
>>77681696
>>77681692
yeah winners gotta take their bag of dirt home one slide at a time.
>>77681685
they got dirt and victory flag too-senpai
im goign to go to koshien stadium one day. Putting it on my bucket list.
>>77681685
>His grandson's team loses because the other team was using metal fucking bats
>>77681709
dont remember to go in a match day and a nonmatch day go to Koshien Stadium, they have a area where you can have the vision below the board, but is open only when koshien dont have matches

>Stadium Museum

>>77681722
sorry I dont follow. Good webm.
>>77681722
>>77681726
oh Im going to go see hanshin play or something
>>77681711
there is no proven advantage of using a metal bat over a wooden one or viceversa.
more than that, players win games not equipment.
and even more than that, teams win games not individual players.
and the classic out on the first pitch before the siren can finish.
>>77681740
bat speed tho.
>>77681709
me too famalam. me too.
i think all 3 of those outs might have been before the siren finished.
>>77681748
>there is no proven advantage of using a metal bat over a wooden one or viceversa.
>>77681736
yeah, see any koshien game is a amazing experience
and the museum has some cool stuff and you can even take a special photo like if you was drafted to NPB

do you think they'd let me smell it also?

good question
last webm of before game, i will check webm if will have something intresting but have big changes of have nothing
>>77681811
Yoooooo that RF has a CANNON
NICE CATCHU
>>77681834
I don't think the first baseman was touching the bag...
>>77681846
yeah this why he got the save and player got the point
fuuug. tokai too good, they won last time 11-1 also
HAITAAAAAA
>bunts

their multiple successful doubleplays were too chill to keep as highlights.
last game of the day is definitely not the best one today
>>77681877
sorry but all the pussy in japan went to the guy who got a 3 RBI bunt.
cmon make it a game
Wouldn't a HR make this a called game?
not shutout, woo
>>77682077
this game is called only is like 20-0
>>77682116
Must only be the prelims that are 10 after 6
>>77682127
you're right. he's huehueing you.
>>77682168
im not huehuering, someone from japan posted a video where someones loses 23-1 and the game ends on 6th
also some matches on first rounds ended with +10 of difference like 3-15 or 14-2
>>77682187
>im not huehuering
>continues to huehue
Fun fact: Daisuke Matsuzaka became the last pitcher to pitch a complete a Koshien game over 15 innings (17 innings in 250 pitches, 1998).
>>77682214
this is japanese huehuering then?
http://www.nhk.or.jp/koushien/#/2017-08-12/
>>77682224
the actual rule is from 2002 right?
besides NPB uses ties rules since 50´s
>>77682237
After the 2006 finals the rule was enacted that any game going over 15 innings would be postponed and resumed the next day.
>>77682230
how exactly does this prove your ridiculous claim of 20 runs?
i believe it's 10+ runs at the end of the 5th
>>77682254
thanks for explanation
>>77682286
it at least shows that the game continues with 10 so following the logic the next are 15 and 20
got that last dive in for the precious koshien dirt
>>77682300
no thats not how anyone would.... jesus hue...
googled and found something.
>The summer rules are the same as in the spring. It is a single elimination tournament with nine inning games. Games are declared official after seven complete innings in the case of suspension (due to weather), except for the championship game which must be played to completion. For the regional tournaments, games are ended if one team leads by at least ten runs after five innings or seven runs after seven innings ("called game"), except in the championship games.
so apparently theres no called games since this is the championship? otherwise this current game would have been called at the end of the 7th inning.
>asking sorry for whole school as bows
man this give me so many feels
>>77682328
or the called game rules only apply in the regionals? and the weather rules apply now and not in the championship.
>>77682341
>>77682328
called with 10 only in regionals, in nationals i think that are called only in extreme score case
i was reading the koshien stadium site and it said that the game can be ended in extreme score case, in this case i think that are 15-0 or something like this
>>77682349
>stripping called game rules
>adding vague ass undefined rules from the "stadium"
so basically they changed the rules and make up new on the spot themselves because they dont want games too short or too long fucking up their tv slots
>>77682392
now days people watch more the finals online than in TVs (in japan generally only the finals of regionals are broadcasted and only for region where the regionals are happening, EX: Tokyo MX for tokyo and AsahiBC for Osaka)
also called games in japan is considered something unholy since the players should play and dont give up until the end, something coming from samurai culture
>>77682434

gonna be insane. Shame it's going to be on so late.
>>77689419
its friday night, keep awake
i always love the cuts to the manager after their team screws up. they manage to always convey the idea 'someone is gonna die for this' on their faces
what song is this, i know it but cant place it.
>>77689721
that is what happens: coach, senpais or rest of team beats him a lot
>>77689726
the song now.
that was a Denny's Grand Slam just now wasn't it?
i hope they lose.
grand slam immediately responded to with a grand slam, wouldn't believe you if you scripted it
>>77690115
well now i hope both teams lose
wtf is this shit?
are the fatass americans who would appreciate this shit even up?
ANOTHER GRAND SLAM?
>>77690191
this is koshien
>>77690200
having 2 grand slams in one inning is why heart disease is the number 1 killer in America.
>>77690216
i am so needy to see this game but i am on college and internet is laggy asf
>>77690063
are you trying to figure out #8's theme song on morioka, too?
it's been bothering me all tournament as well.

it's a magical experience
>>77690399
sadly i am on class so i am listening the game on mute
this game is MLB trash.
>>77690471
>trash
how such epic tied game can be trash? HR or not if they are on same level it can be amazing to watch
>>77690528
the baserunning doesnt matter.
the fielding doesnt matter.
there's no strategy.
it's boring.
Just joining and damn thats alotta papa slams
>>77690572
welcome to party, we gonna have lot of games and memes today
I think the aussie has left at this point
they really do roll around in the dirt if they get a chance
homeruns have always been the downfall of baseball, why leave a completely overpowered mechanic in the game? patch it out already, it a strategy breaking bug.
it ruined professional baseball and now its holy koshien.
>>77690758
lol this is the only game I have seen with this many dingers.
>>77690758
the only correct opinion. small ball is how baseball was meant to be played. fatasses hacking away and missing is disgusting. contact and speed are the true hallmarks of a great player
hello people! me perdi un partidazo parece
>>77690802
>>77690758
Its easier th be a Judge, Stanton or Bellinger then a Votto or Altuve
>>77690792
one of these two unartful teams is going to the next round. its not ok.
>fucks up tagging out a stranded runner
guess they'll need another homerun to make up for not practicing their fielding
>>77690893
better make it another grandslam at this point.
I dont think koshien will evr become home run or k ball because of the lack of power pitching
Damn. They choked that game away.
>>77691035
>choke choke choke
do you clapistanis ever have another reason for game results?
they were shit fielders the whole game, the only thing that changed at the end was they didnt get more homeruns than their opponents.
aus, should he have bunted in that situation?
>>77690834
yeah, you lost
>>77678698
>2nd base
Those manlet feels. Why couldn't I be a big strong shortstop?
finnaly came back from college
i will post game 1 webm highlights as soon they post game videos on Asahi page
i really want record that Grand Slams
>open up asahi
>4 runs in the first inning
what the fuck happened?
>>77691460
missed it but the right time to bunt is always the time at which the fielders are not expecting a bunt.
>>77691624
blew up
and you lost the first epic game
>>77691624
early inning errors/rallies are commonplace.
>>77691645
>counting them out from the top of the first
please
they can't use "that" this early
it'll use up all their energy, they can't maintain this form
>>77691676
i will agree with you only beacuse they just made a point
>>77691624
you could say the fielding team choked
>>77691698
APOLOGIZE
>>77691829
but i told you that i changed my mind
>>77691890
you and bunt haters need to apologize immediately.
o i am laffin
>>77691698
>point
triggered as fuck
Why do you all hate bunting?
>>77691920
>>77691965
I dont hate bunting but I also think home runs dont ruin the #intellectual baseball fans game.
>>77691965
dinger clingers hate that they require being able to run
>>77691985
same for me, home runs and buting both makes the game fun and competitive
>>77692219
>an action that cannot be responded to is competitive
homer apologists make no sense
>>77692553
>hitting a ball 400 feet off of somebody else who's goal is to make sure you do not do that exact thing
seems competitive to me
I have heard a lot of hype for osaka toin might come back for that game
>>77692029
I personally prefer smallball anyways lel. How long you've been following Asiaball btw?
goddamnit kid, hit the ball down. down. towards the ground. teammate turned a single into a triple and he couldnt get that ball down in all those hits to give the runner a chance to get home.
>>77692607
if thats the game, just send the fielders home you dont need them. its the battery vs the batter. no one has to run. it's fancy golf.
>>77692662
we really hope Toin lose today, they are yankees of this competition

that was a big bomb
HAITAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
based nakamura-kun
the real score, discounting the fouls into the backstands, is 4 - 2
in MLB how come they just throw the ball to 1st base for the out but in this they physically run to the base for the out most of the time..........
>>77694632
all depends on if the pitcher is closer than the guy who fielded the ball.
That was Nakamura's 4th HR of the tourney.

well it's probably different rosters completely so they may not be good anymore

This catcher's frame is too obvious. You can't move the mitt after it's already closed. You have to start the move as the ball enters the mitt.

fucking fantastic play by that 2b.
>>77695263
If the ball hits the bat then the batter while he's still in the box it's a foul ball. It hit the knob then him so it's foul
this was a weird way that it happened but you see it all the time where a batter fouls it into his foot or shin, it's why they wear the guards there
Ikuei's pitcher looks gassed. Mistakes may come soon.
Toin's ace isn't even pitching, this is not even their final form
both these teams are really good probably one of the better games I have seen so far
>>77695332
>>77695337
Both teams are about to blew up and shit gonna be good
the samba song just doesnt work out of Toin's expensive band.
Attack on Toin is a gift to mankind though, if only for irony.
>>77695295
but that was the call wasnt it?
>>77695350
no it was called a fair ball and the catcher tagged the batter out
>>77695342
Really feels like a first team to score, wins.
That is unless either team is stupid enough to follow the samurai baseball motto of leaving the starter in even way after it's clear he's done.
man down

>>77695474
he was clearly gassed
>>77695474
American with a lifetime of experience in the sport understands that when a superior team gains the lead in the late innings of a pitcher's duel (in which the superior team doesn't even have their best pitcher throwing) the superior team generally wins (pretty much always)
>>77695474
we've been saying he looks gassed for a while though
also is there a fellow white sox fag here, I know you faggots are weebs, did we ever make a webm of Ranaudo sweating buckets in that start against the cubs, thought we did but I can't find it. that was ridiculous, he wasn't even dripping the sweat was actually pouring off his hat

fuck, dream is dead

h-heh only half game out...
need a big hit c'mon fuckers
FUCK, wasn't even at third I think when the fielder got the ball, risky send but I think you have to at this point
God why run for double
WHYYYYYYYYY?
reeeeeeeeeeeee
Like I said.
1 run. Toin wins.
>>77695538
i called this as well
its ridiculous when toin takes advantage of other´s mistakes
>>77695499
>>77695510
>gassed
gas yourselves american filth, 100+ pitches is nothing, if the arm is still attached to a fiery heart he can stay in.
rack em
now c'mon make them sweat here at least
fuck toin... just end it...
home run right here desu
>>77695563
baseball has moved on friend. I do like the old school style of koshien but the pitcher was making his best spaghett the past couple of innings
>>77695563
It doesn't matter how bad your "fighting spirit" or "fiery heart" wants it if you are physically drained, at your limit, passed your limit.
Yes there are players who can go passed the 100, 110, 120 mark. That's a rarity. a gift, a god given talent, a product of abnormally hard work.
There are 4000+ schools in this tournament. That's 4,000+ kids wearing the ace number. Of those, I'd say 2-5 of them are the rare exception, the immaculate blend of innate talent and a life time of hard work. Such is the nature of baseball. Such is the nature of pitchers.

How does this >>77695615 dispute the game's outcome?
Both schools should have changed pitchers at different points during this game. This is a fact. It can not be argued.

TOIN IS FUCKING OUT
99th Koshien's BESTGAME
>>77695689
none of the pitchers lost runs.
fielding is a thing that exists despite americans.
anyone got a replay of the 1st baseman coming off the bag? i was too focused on the runner and didn't see whether or not he actually came off. also, that shot of the toin crowd as the loss sank in was top notch.
another pretty good round for BASED tohoku

>>77695735
i will post it as well
>>77695740
THE GIANT FINNALY WAS DEFEATED
>>77695731
because americans raised on steroidball are the ones who dont realize fielding is a thing, who think the entire defense is the responsibility of the pitcher.
all 3 runs of the game were made on fielding errors.
>>77695698
Fielding walks the batter to load the bases? Fielding gives up the walk off single?
As cruel as it may seem, wins and losses are a pitcher stat.
Your team scored you a run. Prevent the other team from doing the same.
side note: I'm fully in support of the death of the win/loss stat for pitchers, replace it with the quality start and fip/xfip etc. but, as far as today's common stats go. The pitcher takes the loss on this, and BOTH teams should have clearly switched pitchers during this game.

Who came up with fielding stats?
Who came up with fielding metrics?
Stop trying to pin the game on literally just the fielders. Who let the player hit the ball? Who hung a breaking ball to allow the base hit? Who walked the batter?
It's a team game, and part of that team is the coach. Those coaches should have made changes

The bat physically making contact with the ball is the pitchers fault. If they had a different pitcher in that last inning, things may have been different. And what the fuck do roids have to do with this. These kids are already pitching in the high 80s. Will juicing these kids up and feeding them muscle krispies suddenly eliminate email everyone but the batter and pitcher?

>the tournament favorite team is coached wrong
uh...
>the team that beat the tournament favorite team is coached wrong
eh....?
Save it BEACUSE THIS IS THE BEST MOMENT OF THIS KOSHIEN
You know if I was that big coach I would probably be really uncomfortable too since it is hot and humid
>>77695866
Useless fucking center field should have already been behind the ball. He's never gonna live this down.

Why did the winning team have a run scored on them?
Why did the losing team score their run?
If ONE of these 2 coaches makes a pitching change, we're looking at a shutout victory.
If BOTH of these coaches make a pitching change, we're still watching a game at this very moment.
The bullpen was invented for a reason, relief pitchers are a thing for a reason.
You can NOT possibly be saying anything to the contrary, can you? Results one way or the other can not defend the stupidity of not taking a kid out when he's tired. That 17 year old kid isn't Nolan Ryan, and he isn't going to throw a 149 pitch no hitter. And I can tell you with 100% certainty that he won care if you take him out and the team wins. If you take him out and his summer continues. If you take him out and his baseball life doesn't end.
This is a debate you will not win.

>Why did the winning team have a run scored on them?

all 3 were definitively fielding errors.
>If ONE of these 2 coaches makes a pitching change, we're looking at a shutout victory.
>If BOTH of these coaches make a pitching change, we're still watching a game at this very moment.
complete and utter bullshit conjecture where you think just because a pitcher is "fresh" that they can magically not get hit on. when in reality fresh pitcher regularly lose games by doing horribly in the rev up to getting in the zone.
not to mention you dont actually know how good those pitchers are or what shape theyre in.....those pitcher's were just in games recently and would be expected to be in games coming up, its a tournament.
>This is a debate you will not win.
because you cant win debates with retards.

theres more
>>77695866
missed his spot by 2 feet
>>77695913
they had been playing way in all night, no batter had hit it hard before so it was working fine. got some outs that normally would have fallen in and made that play to throw out the runner in the 8th. That ball would have been tough to catch even if he was playing normal depth though
anyway it's mostly the first baseman's fault
https://youtu.be/q7qsa4Bq2cE?t=377
kind of blocked by the first base coach but he literally just wasn't stepping on the base, seems suspicious desu, how does that happen
>>77695983
Imagine how sweaty they are haha..
>>77695972
>>77696010
waiting on "im not crying, my eyes are just sweaty" coach webm
>>77696040
I think he actually got the foot back in time, can't really tell since it's blocked, but the guy diving really slowed him down, like a fucking shit ton, at the last second, how do people think it's faster to dive.
Anyway the runner had a view literally right on top of the play and he clearly thought he was out
