The Waseda-Keio match becomes the “face” of the official baseball rules.

The Japan Baseball Rules Committee, a joint venture of professional baseball players, was held on the 27th, and 12 rule revisions were stipulated in FY2009. In addition, a photo of the Waseda-Keio match of Tokyo 6 University baseball will be used on the cover of the official baseball rules to be published.

Before the match at Jingu Stadium, the Soukei teams lined up from the home base to the mound, and the scene of greetings was shot from behind the back net. Until now, the baseball rules were monochromatic covers, and no drawings were used.

Takashi Nakamoto, chairman of the Amateur Baseball Rules Committee, said, “There is no pre-match custom for amateurs in Japan, so I think it is suitable for the cover of baseball rules. This year’s photo is from the match against Hayakei. Will post photos alternately for professionals and amateurs every year. “
