Carlton. I believe a tip of the hat is owed to Kumamoto’s high school baseball representatives today — Kyushu Gakuen — for a resounding 14-4 victory in their (delayed by Covid infections) first game at Koshien in the national high school championships. The lopsided win was so uneven NHK evening news didn’t warrant it worthy of mention or video. They only like to report on squeakers it seems.
