When the Takano Ren staff called him over, Lin Guanglai was initially a bit confused—after all, this moment should belong solely to the players' celebration, and Takano Ren generally wouldn't do something so insensitive.
After waiting a little while, the staff member standing in front of Lin Guanglai spoke in a slightly apologetic tone:
"I'm really sorry, Lin, sorry to interrupt your celebration—but there's been a small situation with the ball you hit for that grand slam in this game..."
For every high school player, being able to hit a home run in Koshien is certainly something memorable; therefore, as one of the organizers, Takano Ren would try their best to collect the balls hit by the players and hand them to the players as souvenirs.
Regarding the grand slam ball from Lin Guanglai, Takano Ren naturally also prioritized it, searching for the ball on the field as soon as it was hit and communicating with the spectators who retrieved it, offering corresponding compensation.
