Log: Yeah, it seems the crowd went wild when Tanok got hit by a pitch. The boos were especially memorable.
Chako: So, Coach Inoue came out? What happened?
Log: With the tension rising between both teams, the coach probably wanted to calm things down. That’s also why the game was declared a warning game.
Navi: A warning game is considered a measure to prevent violent conduct between players.

Admin’s Note

The recent match had a tension that went beyond just being a sports event. The near-brawling situation reflected the intense emotions of the players, but the reactions from the crowd were also significant. In particular, the boos directed at Tanock seemed to capture the fans’ expectations and feelings towards the players. The fact that the game continued as a warning match was a moment that showcased the composure of both the players and the coaches. I hope they can maintain this level of tension while continuing to play fairly in the future.
