About a week has passed since the summer Koshien Tournament ended with the victory of Keio High School (Kanagawa).
Until the autumn student baseball season gets underway, there will be a sudden drop in the number of calls from the amateur field for a while.
Speaking of amateur baseball at this time of year, it would probably be the autumn tournament of the new high school baseball team that has already started, or the open game between university and adult baseball.
I had an opportunity to talk with a scout at the site of such an open battle.
Speaking of valleys, it’s like a valley, so when I asked, “How do you spend your time at this time?”
“Actually, I have something I really want to do this time of year.”
Instinctively, I leaned forward.
What I want to see is not an underclassman, but a “third grader”
“I want to see high school students practicing.”
What I want to see is not the new team’s sophomore or freshman. It is said that they are “third-year students” who retired at the summer tournament.
“The same applies to players who played in the summer local tournaments and Koshien, but there are players who lose in strange ways. However, there are many pitchers who lose in unexpected ways, and I would like to know the reason why. I’m going to do it.”
The only way to confirm this is to go to the school grounds to watch the practice now that the official games are over and the players have retired.
In the case of high school students aiming for a draft nomination, many of them continue to practice with the new team even after the “summer” is over.
“If you happen to be out of shape temporarily and lose, that’s fine. However, it is often difficult to make a decision.”
