To accept the Championship Plate, Kobayashi stepped forward. The M-League chairman, Fujita Susumu, took the plate and handed it to Kobayashi. Afterwards, the whole team came together to hold and raise the plate.
After the photos with the plate, they were then handed a cheque worth 50 million yen, the prize for winning a 1st. After they posed with the cheque, they were each given microphones and said a few words about their experience. Once they were finished, they did their Pirates salute
After the M-League Chairman made one last speech, the Awards Ceremony came came to a close. The Pirates waved us one last goodbye and, with that, the M-League 2019 season was over.
