The players that get drafted in the fall don’t actually graduate until the following March. When they graduate, they might bestow some gifts on the club. Here’s an example of a couple of them.

The graduation ceremony is over. It’s a bit lonely…
Fukushima’s Present #

Fukushima-senpai gave me notes about Fukushima Ren of the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters.

I’m sure it will be useful. I got a book on winning pickoffs.

牽制◎を教えられるようになった。
I have a deeper understanding of pickoffs.
I can now teach the pickoff skill.
Nomura’s Present #

Oh, by the way, Nomura-senpai also gave me notes about Nomura Taiki of the Saitama Seibu Lions.

I’m sure it will be useful. I got a book on strengthening practice.
Okoe’s Present #

Oh, by the way, Okoe-senpai also gave me notes about Okoye Rui of the Giants.

I’m sure it will be useful. I got a book on getting infield hits.
Conclusion #

…I see, he was thinking about his juniors too.

Let’s work hard for the seniors who have graduated!

The first and second years are fired up.
