The Quiver - September 28, 2047
Your Shizuoka Arrows News Source!

No, it wasn't the finish anyone wanted. The comeback almost worked, April aside this was a good team.

But the team bid farewell to their postseason streak and their general manager both yesterday. tehsuigi leaves the Shizuoka Arrows in a good place, with youngsters ready to push the old farts out and a fantastic pitching staff. He also leaves them in a bit of a budget bind, so it'll be interesting to see who stays with the club past this year.

At least they ended with a win, as Tony Topete crushed a 3-run home run in the bottom of the 8th to put Shizuoka ahead of Orix 4-3. The Arrows finish the season 81-62, and 3 games back of the Lions and Buffaloes tied in second.

EDIT: Tony Topete won PL Batter of the Month, batting .357 with 7 HRs.
