Posted in: Nootbaar's pepper grinder move unwelcome in Japan high school tourney See in context
High school baseball regulations tend to curb expressions of emotions, such as making a clenched fist after scoring.
We have always asked high school baseball to abstain from unnecessary performances and gestures...the Japan High School Baseball Federation said in a statement.
Really? Then the Federation must not have been watching any of the games because the "clenched fist expression" is almost always seen from the players. Any sport can be very emotional for the players, especially when played in a single-elimination tournament. Let's the kids be human.
