The Return of Diamond Ace Pitcher

"boom!"

Seeing the small white ball in hand, Bang Lei City didn't think much about it, so he swung the bat in his hand.

As he was swinging the bat, Tada felt that Thunder City seemed to have emptied the surrounding air.

That feeling was so strange that Tada felt for a moment that he couldn't even breathe.

Nima is too scary!

This kind of swing was the first time I saw Tada's surprise for so many years.

Among the players of the same year, besides the big demon Sawamura, is there a hitter of this level?

"Ping!"

The straight ball that flew from was bludgeoned by the Thunder City.

The baseball flew for a while, and finally hit the guard net directly.

Home run!

The start is a home run!!

...

Chapter 017

We put aside the intense practice game held in Daocheng for the time being.Pull the camera back to Qingdao High School.

After the speed test was over, more and more onlookers emerged on the campus.They originally thought that the baseball club of Qingdao High School was still on holiday, so they were not particularly active in training.

After all, they have been watching it for several days before, and the heat is naturally getting lower day by day.

After I arrived, I felt that the atmosphere on the court became very different.

"It turns out that classmate Zecun has returned!"

Soon they found a different center, a circle of flatterers around Zecun.Even the third-year seniors who were training on another court frequently turned their eyes back to Zecun's side.

Sawamura defeated Kuramochi in the 50-meter race!

Amazing, really amazing!

"Zecun, we will always support you."

"Come on!"

"Won the championship this time, and go to the Spring A."

"It's up to you, Master Ace!"

Most of those who came to watch Qingdao High School practice were seniors who graduated from this school.There is no doubt that they are the hardest supporters of this school.

For them, the appearance of Sawamura Rongchun is simply the blessing of the goddess of luck.It is precisely because he came to Qingdao High School that he brought such good luck to Qingdao.

Before the third grade seniors retired, it was because of the relationship between them.The popularity of these third-year seniors is not low among those hardcore supporters.

When they are there, they can share some of Zecun's popularity.Now the seniors in the third grade have retired, and they all have a better future.

According to the information they have, four of the third-year players in Qingdao High School were invited by the professional draft, and one of the others was counted as one. Even the better substitutes were also invited by the college draft. Invitation.

Professional drafts have to be postponed, but college drafts are generally held in September.

The so-called draft is to represent people's interest in you, and then you go to the selection.This kind of draft is also divided into general invitations and named invitations.

The general invitational selection is much more stringent, but deliberately rushing to the school to appoint the contestants to participate, that is basically a formality, as long as you want, you can go to that university to study.

Among the 18 members of the First Army in Qingdao High School, apart from a few players in the first and second grades, one of them counts as one, and the future is very bright.

This is also a side benefit of Koshien.Not to mention that Qingdao High School has won the national hegemony. Even if Qingdao High School does not dominate the country, the transcript of their appearance in the Jiaziyuan competition is enough for them to have a good future.

For the third grade players, their only task now is to make their final appearance in the National Sports Championship.

For the National Sports Competition, the results are not particularly important anymore.With the top eight in the Jiaziyuan as the core, the National Sports Competition held is more like a star show.

After the game, most of the players have to take pictures of each other and sign each other.Even if it fails, it won't cry.

of course.

For a national hegemon like Qingdao High School, it would be very embarrassing if the results are really unstoppable.

Therefore, the seniors in the third grade gathered to train, not all for the sake of feelings, and really didn't want their last experience to be too shameful.

Hearing the cheering from the surrounding audience, Sawamura waved to the audience frequently.

Although most of these audiences did not see him defeating Kuromochi and creating miracles.Dan Zecun regarded them as cheering for themselves.

As far as Sawamura himself is concerned, it feels sour and refreshing.

He didn't even think that he was so capable, outpacing Kurachi in speed.Although this excitement can't match the excitement of dominating the country with a third-year senior, it is also comparable to winning the Kanto Conference.

Cool!

"Damn brat!"

Kuramochi looked at the triumphant Sawamura, his teeth hurt with hatred.But he is not such a stingy person, because Zecun won him, so he went to trouble Zecun.

It will be faster next time!

After losing to Sawamura, Kuramomo made up his mind and worked hard at his own speed.

There was really no effect at first, because he had already increased his speed to an extremely powerful level.Later, Sawamura guided him and adopted a more scientific training method, so that Curamochi could improve his speed to a higher level.

Those training methods were invented by experts and professors in the major leagues.In kinesiology, they are more professional than Supervisor Kataoka and Coach Ochiai.

In the future, Kuramochi will be able to advance by leaps and bounds, which has a lot to do with this competition.

Every baseball player is very proud, especially the skilled player. In other things, even if he loses, he may not care too much, but in terms of speed, he does not want to lose to anyone. .

Not even Zecun!

Even after half a year of getting along with each other, he now regards Zecun as his own brother.

He also didn't want to lose to Zecun in terms of speed.

"Next is the practice of strikes. Although the members of the first army are enough now, there is no obvious difference in the level of everyone. It is very likely that you can decide the next back number based on your strikes. Although we don't have to participate in the preliminary rounds, the list is We still have to report. Normally, the preliminaries start in the middle of the day, so before the 10th, we will decide everyone's back numbers. Work hard!"

Before the blow training started, Ochiai coach suddenly threw a bait.

This is a very attractive bait.

Before adding Zemura, he just showed an extraordinary state.Everyone is confident about qualifying for the spring Koshien.

At this time, the number is very precious.

There is a big gap between being able to win the main back number and not being able to win the main back number.

Take the retired third-year seniors, the main players are basically invited to the professional draft.

The substitute players have no such treatment, at most they can only get an invitation to the college draft.

Even if the main force couldn't achieve results, Itai, who had an average sense of existence, had received four invitations from college electives.

If he wants to advance to a career, it is not impossible to get a recommendation from the school.

As for substitutes, generally only one or two invitations have been received.

This is the gap.

If the level differs too much, everyone won't say anything.The current situation is that everyone's level is about the same, so naturally we have to fight hard.

Except for the original four-man team, the other positions are all contestable.

So after hearing what Coach Ochiai said, the originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly became weird.

Chapter 018: Talented and Untalented

"Will coach Ochiai's training method affect the relationship between the players?"

Minister Ota rubbed his hand and asked worriedly.

Supervisor Kataoka didn't say a word, and turned to look at Ochiai.

In terms of training, Supervisor Kataoka is more willing to trust Ochiai coach's judgment.

At the Kanto Conference, he realized his own shortcomings, so he asked the fat principal and the dean of education to find an experienced coach to help.He is a qualified coach, but not a good enough coach.

He doesn't want to turn the Qingdao High School baseball team into that kind of team that only knows the pursuit of victory.

He prefers to turn Qingdao into a place for players to pursue their dreams.

On the surface, the two do not seem to be much different.But in fact, there are essential differences.

"I understand the Minister's concern. Everyone is training together and chanting slogans together. Of course there is nothing wrong with it. But generally speaking, isn't it only for teams with weak overall strength to do this? The current Qingdao, but National hegemon! If the players' mentality does not change, they will suffer a big loss during the autumn competition."

On this point, Ochiai, who has extensive experience, naturally has the most say.

"Different players must be treated differently, especially talented players. As for internal competition, isn't Qingdao High School always doing this? Only those who compete openly and win actual results can continue. Go forward. Rather than let the players understand this, you might as well just tell them directly."

Ochiai finished.

Director Ota and Supervisor Kataoka had no opinion.Although in their hearts, they think that Ochiai's statement is somewhat inappropriate.

But to be honest, the previous Qingdao High School also operated such a system.It's just that there is no public announcement, and the truly enlightened players will naturally work harder.

If you treat this as a provision, tell all players publicly.

Players who feel that they are promising will definitely work harder, and the gap in strength between the players will increase.For competitive players, this is of course a good thing, and for the entire Qingdao High School, it is also a good thing.

But in Qingdao High School, not all the players are so talented.Those players who are not talented, where should they go?

This is the reason why Kataoka Supervisor and Aodo High School’s coaching staff did not publicly publicize this.

"Tell the players who can't do it, they just can't do it. Isn't this also a kind of kindness to them? Of course I have heard the example of third-grade players. To be honest, I also admire it from the bottom of my heart. But they do not contradict our rule. Even if they tell them in the first grade that they are not talented, will they give up on their own? What's more, we haven’t told them directly, but just passed the usual test , Tell them. If you are not reconciled, then work harder than others. If you think you can’t catch up and don’t have the determination to save everything, isn’t it a good thing for them to return to their normal study life now? Fish's mentality is that it only regards club sports as physical exercise, it shouldn't matter, anyway, they don't want to be extravagant, wear a green road jersey, represent the school to compete. Anyway, we will not train the bottom person to kick. Out of the team."

Ochiai's words completely convinced the entire coaching staff headed by Supervisor Kataoka.

In the past, everyone was only vaguely aware of it, but now it is similar to the stipulation.

Do you want the main number?Want to put on the jersey of Qingdao High School and represent the school in the competition?

Then try hard to get results in your usual training.

Back numbers are only given to the best performers, and there are always various quizzes. Even as a substitute, as long as you perform well, you will get a chance to play.

This is how Ochiai helped Aoto High School set the guidelines.Although Supervisor Kataoka also implemented this standard before, there is no such explicit stipulation as it is now.

Once expressly stipulated, both the players and the coaching staff must implement it.

This kind of benign competition will definitely allow the Qingdao High School team to get rid of the influence of the third-year departure as soon as possible and re-form their combat effectiveness.

"Coach Ochiai is really unwilling to be lonely."

Sawamura is not surprising at all about Ochiai coach's approach.In his previous life, Coach Ochiai had already started doing this.

The effect is very good, of course, some sequelae are inevitable.

But for the healthy development of the team, such sacrifices are indispensable.

With the standards set by Ochiai's coach, the comparability of the friends immediately rose.

"Can I be their object of practice?"

Sawamura volunteered to be his partner as a training object.

In addition to the pitching of the pitching machine, the pitcher is indispensable when practicing.

After all, machines and humans are not the same. If people are targeted, not only will the attacker be more motivated, but the effect will be closer to actual combat.

"Ok?"

Supervisor Kataoka frowned and looked at Sawamura.

Zecun was a little embarrassed, but he still said.

"Pitching without an opponent is too boring. I also want to take this opportunity to practice my ball control."

Practice ball control through actual combat.

This is a good suggestion, and Supervisor Kataoka readily agreed.
