The 90th baseball championship of high schools was over yesterday in Japan, resulted with Osaka Toin's landslide. Among 4057 high school baseball teams, 55 teams gathered in Koshien stadium on the 2nd of August and 54 game matches were held for 17 days. Strange to say, number of games is equal to number of entrants minus one in tournament style, as the only one winner is left and the others are losers.
Baseball is very tough sport to exercise. Running, muscle-building, setting-up exercises, catch, batting, defense, offence, team work, formation plays, etc. Once the basic physical strength is developed through baseball, it could be applied to many other sports.
Baseball matches in Olympics are fun for me now. I hope major baseball teams in USA could allow professional players to join Olympics, stopping regular season games, even though USA team might be invincible.

Formerly, I, Zhuang Zhou, dreamt that I was a butterfly, a butterfly flying about, feeling that it was enjoying itself. I did not know that it was Zhou. Suddenly I awoke, and was myself again, the veritable Zhou. I did not know whether it had formerly been Zhou dreaming that he was a butterfly, or it was now a butterfly dreaming that it was Zhou. But between Zhou and a butterfly there must be a difference. This is a case of what is called the Transformation of Things.
