The Return of Diamond Ace Pitcher

Although he cooperated well with Sawamura Eijun before.

But his old partner Hongo has been good friends for many years.

They only need one look to understand each other's meaning, and it is naturally handy to cooperate.

To be honest, analyze this problem from a rational point of view.

Both Supervisor Takeda and the assistant coach agree.

It is most reliable to let the old pair of Renji and Hongo play.

Although this pair of partners, compared with the partners of Sawamura and Miyuki, there is still a gap.

But the current island team has no way to pay attention to those.

This is their best choice right now.

The reason why it hasn't been finalized is mainly because Supervisor Takeda is still somewhat worried.

He also knows that Hongo's strength is very reliable.

From the perspective of fighting spirit, he is no less inferior to Sawamura Eijun.

But I'm afraid of comparison with anything.

Compared with Sawamura on the pitcher's hill, the strength of the monster Hongo Masamune is terrifying, but it obviously has shortcomings.

Unlike Sawamura Eizumi, his skills on the pitcher's mound are horrendous.

From Takeda's mind, there is no more suitable pitcher than Zawamura.

Let Sawamura sit on the bench and let Hongo go to play against North America.

Even if he knew that this was the best option at the moment, Supervisor Takeda didn't seem to be too willing.

In fact, it is more accurate than unwilling to say unwilling.

The game against North America will undoubtedly be a tough fight.

Originally, they just heard that this year's North American players have come to many super talents.

Later, Supervisor Takeda watched the videos of the North American players.

Especially the semifinals between them and Treasure Island.

The score difference is not big, 3:0.

But from beginning to end, Baodao had no chance.

Takeda even felt that in that game, those players on the North American team might not be able to exert all their strength.

Of course, this is just a feeling from him.

But this feeling made him very uneasy.

When the island national team was first formed, the players represented by Tokyo joined forces with all the players from other regions and played a match.

The representative of Tokyo won.

But you come and go, and the scene is not so ugly.

But Supervisor Takeda was very clear in his heart.

If it is the beginning, the two teams will do their best to fight for victory or defeat.

Then the coalition forces in other regions may not be able to compete with the Tokyo team at all.

This is not to say that the coalition forces in other regions have worse overall strength than the players in the Tokyo region.

To be honest, the strength of their various positions should be equal.

Even if there is a gap, the gap will not be large.

The only variable is the pitcher.

Sawamura, standing on the pitcher's mound, began to show his strength once his interest was fully mobilized.

Even the players of the same group can only look up when they see him.

It's amazing!

Among a group of star players, he is still the most dazzling existence.

Relying on his own strength, the whole team has undergone earth-shaking changes.

At the beginning, when he was in middle school, Sawamura relied on his own efforts to lead the Akagi Middle School baseball team to the national championship.

The existence of such a pitcher can change the spirit of the entire team.

In contrast, Hongo's strength is also very good.

But it was obvious to him that he couldn't achieve the level of Zecun.

It can even be said that he is still far behind.

In this case, Supervisor Takeda was caught in a dilemma.

One party can be determined, but one party is difficult to determine.

Renji's answer exceeded Takeda's expectation.

"I feel that Sawamura is more suitable as a pitcher in the finals."

He didn't even say that both of them are suitable. He directly said that Zecun was the most suitable ace.

"Why? I thought you would talk about Hongo, the last time you would say that both of you can do it."

"There is nothing wrong with Hongo, but if I choose, I will still choose Sawamura."

"Can you give me a reasonable explanation?"

"I used to cooperate with Sawamura before. Although it was just a simple pitching cooperation! But through that cooperation, I have seen a lot of things."

"Plus the intelligence that was detected before."

When talking about this, Renji's eyes were different.

"I think that in this situation, there is no more suitable person than Zawa Village. Simply speaking, I don’t think that my partner with Zawa Village will be better than my partner with Hongo. Personally, maybe I and Hongo The partner will be more comfortable. But our current situation in the team can be said to be precarious. In this case, we need a strong leader to lead us forward on the court. Before it was Miyuki-senpai, he was obviously Those who have this characteristic. Now I think that only Sawamura has this ability. Other players don't have such ability."

It turned out to be like this...

After listening to Lianji's explanation, Supervisor Takeda's heart was filled with relief and surprise.

The children now are really amazing.

He actually noticed details that he and the assistant coach hadn't noticed.

The current situation of the team really needs a strong leader.

Otherwise, when they played with 12 players, they would be inherently weak when playing against North America.

Can the players have the will to defeat the opponent?

This is a big problem.

"Ah, very good!"

After Supervisor Takeda had discussed with Lianji, he finally asked another question.

"Do you think the local students are not suitable for leading the team?"

This question is obviously not easy to answer as a friend and old partner Lianji.

He pondered for a while, then nodded.

That guy is arrogantly dying, even with the troll's teammates, there are many problems when working with them.

Not to mention the new team now.

If this doesn't cause any problems, is it a hell?

The team went smoothly without any contradiction.

With Hongo's strong pitching, he can also lead everyone forward.

Once the game is deadlocked, or they get stuck.

Then Lianji, basically can imagine.

What will happen to them?

I silently said sorry to Hongo in my heart.

Although Lianji took the team as the starting point and considered the problem.

But he still thinks he is very sorry for his friend.

But he can only silently apologize in his heart.

This situation is really not suitable for Hongo to play.

Whether it's against the team or the hometown himself.

It's all so.

At the meeting that evening, Supervisor Takeda gathered all the players together. He didn't mention a word of everyone's questions in the morning.

What should be said has been said, and what should be judged, the organizing committee has already judged.

For the players of the island national team, that is past tense.

Now their most important task is to find a way to win the finals.

"Tomorrow's game against North America, the starting pitcher is..."

The next day.

9 am.

In Taipei's largest baseball stadium, the World Youth Baseball Championship finals officially opened.

At that time, there were a lot of fans in the stands.

Everbright has four to five thousand fans running from the island country.

This may not be new in professional baseball.

Each team represents a city, and the residents of the city even regard the team as their faith and family.

There is a happy event at home, so naturally we have to join in the fun.

In contrast, student baseball is student baseball, and it is difficult to cause too much sensation.

But this time, it was obviously different.

Judging from the backup in the audience, the momentum is different!!!

...

Chapter 048 World Finals!

...

The finals of the World Youth Competition are in full swing in Taipei.

The two sides of the game had just defeated North America of China Island with a score of 3:0.

They have lived up to their title of baseball kingdom.

The victory was won smoothly.

On the other hand, something went wrong during the game, and finally relying on tenacious strength, with a score of 13:0, crushed the opponent's island team.

The finals of these two teams have attracted much attention before.

Fifteen minutes before the start of the game, the audience had already filled the stands.

"This is too hot!"

A treasure island fan who heard the rumors before and came to watch the game.

After coming to the stadium, everyone was shocked.

Although he had heard a lot of rumors before, when he witnessed all this, his heart was still full of great shock.
