E. STANDINGS AND STATS:

There are a ton of different stats you can look at here which required creating a whole section to translate. You can check it out in the "Pennant \ Standing & Stats" section.

Shown here is an example of what you can view. You can really get a good look at your team, as you can see I ranked my players by their trajectory ratings.

F. MEDALS ALBUM:

Kinda useless, but after you accomplish something like "Hit a walk off HR" you will get a medal, just like video game achievements. there are 215 medals to collect.

G. ITEMS & SHOP:

There are 2 options: Items, Shops

ITEMS: View your training facilities. They all start at level 1.

• Fastball
• Control
• Stamina
• Breaking Ball
• Contact
• Power
• Speed
• Arm
• Defense

At the bottom are extra items you have. Sometimes after a game in which a player does well, you can develop a merchandise for him to raise his mood and increase income. If you have such an item, it will be shown in the big space below the equipment.

SHOP:

Here you can upgrade your training facilities, and start development for the above-mentioned merchandise. I think training equipment can only be upgraded twice. Below the equipment is the special merchandise you can develop, if you have any. They usually only cost 300 - 700p. You can only develop 3 merchandise at the same time.

After you start the development, you will see a screen after the next game showing that player looking happy and saying his condition has improved. Sometimes it even says you earned some money from this merchandise. However i have also seen some bad news like the merchandise didnt sell and the player's condition/mood drops.
