University of Tokyo Season Won't Continue in Playoffs: The University of Tokyo Imperials quite simply didn't have what it took this year. The club was formally eliminated from playoff qualification in 2037.
"It feels bad," said Imperials closer Seishiro Iwata, when asked for his response by reporters. "Having your biggest hopes of the year dashed feels bad."
The Imperials have missed the playoffs 8 times in their 17 years as a International Collegiate Baseball Association franchise. This playoff miss is the club's 2nd in a row, with their last postseason appearance coming in 2035. In the last 10 seasons, the Imperials have missed the playoffs 3 times.
