The Return of Diamond Ace Pitcher

"After the ball is thrown, the pitcher is the ninth fielder on the court. Never forget this sentence."

In the end, Danbo poured Jiang Guxiao a bowl of chicken soup.

On the other side, Zecun’s performance was different.

Containment, containment by stealing bases, defense, replacement...

When he really started to get into defensive practice, Zecun's performance was enough to make everyone look at him.His strength and comprehensiveness are nothing like a fifteen-year-old who just graduated from middle school.(It wasn't originally.)

Seeing Sawamura's performance, Ms. Ota almost couldn't find North.

"Sawamura student can be used as the main pitcher, I believe it will be fine even if some key scenes are handed over to him."

This is how he suggested to Kataoka.

Rei Takashima hugged his chest, equally proud.You know, Sawamura was invited to the team after she worked so hard.

"Don’t underestimate the honor that Zecun had achieved in middle school. Although the intensity and pace of the middle school’s games are not as good as that of the high school, their tactical arrangements are also very good. As the team’s pitcher and coach, Zecun can lead The team won the national championship for two consecutive years. His experience and mentality are also a great asset."

This meaning is obvious.

It would be no problem to hand the key scenes to Zecun, but they were the ones who had taken the overlord of the country.Even if high school baseball gets more attention, the national hegemon is the hegemon, and people have experience in reaching the top.

Will the person who can win the national supremacy be nervous in the high school game?

This is of course impossible.

Kataoka has nothing to say about this.Although Tanba's pitch is very good, since he recovered his fighting spirit, it can be said that he is getting better and better.

But in terms of overall strength, he might not be as good as Zecun, who was two years younger than him.

Sawamura is too comprehensive, especially after getting his true pass (covering the pitch), his pitching ability has risen rapidly.

In terms of pure strength, Sawamura is actually the most trusted pitcher of Qingdao.

"If he can win the semifinals, I will arrange for him to play during the Kanto Conference. If his pitcher skills are almost the same, let him try outfielders."

Finally, Sawamura and Kataoka made such an arrangement.

"Outfielder?"

Ota looked at Kataoka in surprise.

In his opinion, letting Zecun guard the outfielder is a bit aggressive.

Rei Takashima was pleasantly surprised.

Not only the pitching, but also Kataoka's strike from Rensawamura?

If the ace pitcher wants to be on the court all the time, they are usually placed in two positions, the pitcher mound and the outfielder.This is not much in the profession, but in high school, it is very common for ace pitchers to also work as outfielders.

There are two main considerations.

The first is that the ace pitcher is on the court, even if he is not on the pitcher mound, he can give other friends a psychological comfort.Another is that if the bench pitcher fails, the ace pitcher can immediately switch to the pitcher mound in a crisis situation.

Therefore, the real high school ace will never end unless the opponent is too weak!

Otherwise, if you replace the trump card, you will be at a loss if you encounter a crisis.The rule of high school baseball is that once a player is off the field, he must never play again.This is different from the rules of basketball.

Kataoka has made up his mind to train Sawamura as a trump card.

Of course he did this for other reasons.For example, being an outfielder is also good for training Sawamura's long passing and ball speed. There is also a very important point. Even if Aodo is so strong nowadays, Kataoka's attack on Sawamura still cannot be ignored.

It's amazing!

Although Zemura is not a strong hit, he has a hit rate of more than 60%, and he has flexible tactical hitting skills.

For ordinary opponents, Sawamura's attack is an unparalleled weapon for the attack.

Regardless of that aspect, Kataoka believed that Sawamura had the strength to become the main force of the Aodo.

Still under the supervision of Chris, Sawamura began to contact the outfielder defense, and it was Xiao Gu Xiao who practiced with him.In the outfielder position, Jiang Gu Xiao did a good job.He has no problem catching and passing the ball, but he is very talented.

Zecun himself is even better.

He has also been an outfielder in Akagi, and he is familiar with outfielder skills.

When Sawamura gradually showed his presence in the first army, Qingdao ushered in their spring semifinals.

The day before the game.

Kuramochi left the classroom, ready to go for training.

At this time, behind him suddenly followed a little beauty with shawl hair.

"Hehe, Master Banhua, what's your order?"

Recognizing people, Cangmo was very excited. He didn't expect that his uncle Cangmo would also have a peach blossom one day.

The Hana gave Kuramochi a shy look, and she tickled the child's heart.

"Well, Kuramochi you belong to the baseball team, right?"

"Yes."

"Then do you know Zecun?"

...

Chapter 027 A Fierce Battle Without Spectators

That night, after Zecun returned to the dormitory, he felt that the atmosphere was very wrong.

Zengzitou hasn't returned yet, and there is only one person in the dormitory.He knelt down in front of the TV very calmly, watching TV seriously.

The weird thing is that there is no sound in the TV, just seeing the screen flickering.

It's abnormal!

Keen intuition tells Zecun that this place is very dangerous, and he lifted his leg to leave.

"Where to go?"

The room was quiet, and the sound of Zecun opening the door was particularly abrupt.Now that he was going to pull the door to leave again, the voice was even more abrupt.

Kuraki calmly picked up the remote control, turned off the TV without sound, and asked without looking back.

"It's okay, just go out for a stroll."

The feeling of unknown became more and more serious, and Zecun ran away.

Thirty-six strategies are the best strategy. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. A big man can bend and stretch...

At this moment, the names of countless sages flashed in Zecun’s mind, and these sages told Zecun the same truth.Heroes don’t suffer from immediate losses!

Although I don't know why Kuromochi went mad, he was mad for sure.

Nazecun should still smear the soles of his feet.

"Go there!"

Kuramochi jumped up and rushed towards Zecun like a hungry tiger.

"Say, how did you hook up with Yingzi. Do you know that she is the dream lover of our class?"

Sawamura may be Curachi's opponent, and he was caught by Curachi as soon as he turned around.

"I……"

As soon as Sawamura opened his mouth, he was fixed by Kurachi's scorpion fixation method.(That is, cross Sawamura's legs and place them on Kurachi's own thighs. In this way, Sawamura can only touch the ground with his hands and has no strength to fight back.)

"Don't quibble, you playboy. Don't you have a childhood friend in your hometown?"

"I~"

Sawamura wanted to say something again, and was again arbitrarily stopped by Kuramochi.

Zecun wanted to cry without tears.

He just wanted to ask, who is Yingzi?

In the morning of the next day, the friends of Qingdao took a car to watch the semi-finals of the first army of Qingdao.

High school training is not uncontrolled, especially during the competition, at least on the day of the competition, Qingdao does not force everyone to train.

But places like Qingdao are hard to say.Except for the first army players participating in the competition, most of the other players will practice on their own.

If you want to climb up, how can you not work harder than others?

In this semi-final, Qing Dao played crazy and finally defeated his opponent with a big score of 12:5.

A score of this kind in the Tokyo semifinals is rare even for Aodo.

Minister Ota was surprised to see the menacing formation of them, and muttered incomprehensibly: "Are you all taking guns?"

Although Sawamura and Akiya Sagaya joined the first army, the registration for the Tokyo Spring Contest has long been closed, so they cannot participate in the competition as the first army for the time being.You can only watch everyone's performance in the audience.

Aodo successfully advanced to the Tokyo final and won the qualification for the Kanto Conference.

The whole team was in jubilation.

"Qingdao, long live!!!"

After everyone got on the bus, Minister Ota announced the order for a holiday after returning to school.

"The players from the first army, gather in the conference room at night to discuss the tactics for tomorrow's final."

In the finals, according to Qingdao's past style, 80% of them are arranged to play on the bench, so there is no need to make special preparations.

In this way, Qingdao’s little friend ushered in a rare half-day holiday.

Saturday afternoon, all friends, have a holiday.

As for how many people will rest this afternoon, it is hard to say.However, it is definitely necessary to take a break when the first army is elected. This is also an unspoken rule. It is not only to relieve the fatigue of the game, but also to free up scarce resources such as pitching machines and training equipment.

The various implementations of Qingdao are very complete, yes, but there are no local tyrants that can satisfy everyone's training.Like pitching machines, strength training equipment, these things are still tightly used by the military.

You must know that there are ninety-three players in Qingdao. If everybody practice strikes, they have to use a pitching machine. How many pitching machines are needed?The same is true for other facilities...

On weekdays, an army has occupied these resources for a long time.When there are holidays or taking turns to rest, the First Army must also sensibly let these facilities out to give other friends a chance.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is west, and the spring breeze is slowing down, and everyone who blows will be drunk.

By the small river next to Qingdao High School, the environment is very good, the scenery is good, and there are not many people.

In the evening, after dinner, many friends from the Second Army like to come here to practice swinging, of course, they are not there now.Now that the entire army is resting, they rarely have access to training equipment and pitching machines, and they will come here.

Zecun was sitting by the small river, feeling the spring breeze, and the phone in his hand kept beeping, prompting him to have text messages coming in.

But Zecun had no mind to know this, he was waiting for someone.

Not long after, the people he was waiting for came!

"Hello seniors!"

Zecun got up, looked at the seniors in front of him, and greeted respectfully.

He nodded: "There are no seniors now, only opponents."

"let us start!"

Keisei Tetsuya, Kominato Ryosuke, Isashiki Jun, Chris, Masuko Tou, there are many high-level hitters in the third grade.

"Wait, there is still one short."

After Chris finished speaking, a figure rushed up behind him.

"Sorry, I overslept at noon. Hehe~"

The last person is here too, Miyuki.

"How come?"

This is a small river, not as convenient as a stadium.

"Well, stand by the river, and I throw the ball with my back against the school wall. With the height of the dam and the wall, I can block most of the ball. A ball that hits the school is considered a home run."

Zecun has been investigating for a long time and has long planned for this.

"How should we arrange for the five of us?"

Don't talk nonsense about the formation, just ask Zecun directly.

If five people play four rounds, it would be too bully.With Yizecun’s current physical strength, it is impossible for him to fight with the five of them at the same time, and cast more than four rounds without interruption.
