damm I am late to this reaction but what they did to Masashi is called the silent treatment, basically they show no emotion but as soon as the batter passes thru they start celebrating the homerun.

I don't know if the episode covered it but its usually tradition in baseball to not celebrate a new players first home-run in a game. Hence why they had no emotion.

That smile that Coach Kotaoka gives after Eijun demands to play the rest of the game brings me to tears every time! First time he ASKED to play the last inning but now he’s DEMANDING that he plays the rest of the game. He’s seeing Eijun embody the role of an Ace.
