Chapter 17 signal
This is what happened when Coach Gu Ye served as the coach of the Hiroshima Cap team and led the team to win the championship.By this time I had learned a lot about baseball, and I felt like I knew a lot more than I had in the past.In the program "Teko's Cabin", we talked about the "sign" made by the coach. I deeply felt that baseball players must be very smart, so I said to the coach:
"You have to memorize all the different codes clearly every day, and you can't make any mistakes. It must be very hard, right?"
Next, I asked:
"We know that there are many kinds of codes. Can you teach us how to use a code? We know that codes should be kept secret, but we are still very curious... For example, what is the code for Hiroshima's 'home run'? where?"
After a moment of silence, Mr. Gu Ye said solemnly:
"There is no signal for a home run. Even if the signal is given, the home run may not be hit."
However, the gentle Mr. Gu Ye added another sentence:
"However, it seems that we can consider giving a home run signal to the foreign players. This will make the atmosphere tense, and it may have unexpected good effects."
I don't know if the home run had a cue after that.Maybe some team has devised the home run code and is using it.
