Chapter 4: Their Hearts (7th Shift 200 Monthly Pass)
It's amazing, Qingdao!
Even the players who didn't make it to the first army are so powerful. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The current Nine Ghosts Yangping only had a deep shock in his heart.
"Oh no, the seniors are all getting serious."
Asada timidly watched the showdown going on the court. To be honest, Asada really admires the nine ghosts who can still exert their strength now.
What scared him even more was that he was going to play soon. As long as the thought of facing off against these demonic seniors right away, Asada had a chilling feeling.
"It's okay!"
Just then, a calm voice rang out behind him.
It is Okumura, Okumura light boat.
"That slider is not badly thrown, if you can throw a good ball belt, even the seniors can't easily hit it, but this also depends on the premise that the catcher can play the code without fear!"
Okumura didn't say anything encouraging to Asaka, just commented on the pitching of the nine ghosts, but Asada inexplicably felt a lot more at ease, it turned out that they were not helpless against their seniors.
"You're going to pitch in a while, I'll warm up with you, what kind of balls will you have?"
……
While Okumura was comforting Asada, there was a new change on the court.
At this time, the game had been played for two rounds, and the score on the court was 8:0, and the offense of the second and third grades had not completely ended at this time.
The players who mixed well in middle school and even served as the core baseball team suddenly realized that this is the king Seido High School with a national level team that has dominated Koshien for two consecutive years.
Even if these seniors did not enter the first army, let alone the right selection, their strength is genuine, genuinely strong.
"It's already two outs, defend them here, and ask everyone when the ball flies past."
The only one on the court who hasn't lost his luster is probably the pitcher.
Nine ghosts, he greeted his teammates in high spirits. It seems that the loss of these eight points now has not affected him in the slightest.
"Okay, let's hit this way!"
"We'll keep it!"
"Concentrate on the hitter."
Finally, the courage of the pitcher woke up the whole team. The players began to cheer the pitchers on, even if they didn't think they could do much against their seniors.
No one knew that the current performance of the Nine Ghosts had deeply attracted a man. He is Kataoka, the superintendent of Seido High School.
Kataoka has always believed that in addition to skills, ace pitchers must also have excellent psychological quality, just like the ace pitcher Tanba of the previous Qingdao Road, his ball skills are not bad, what he lacks is the domineering of the king, and strong psychological quality.
The Nine Ghosts lost eight points in two games with constant mistakes from their teammates around them.
In the face of such a situation, you can also calmly encourage the people around you.
Kataoka felt the quality of an ace in the body of the nine ghosts.
After Tsuki Tani and Sawamura, it seems that Qingdao will not be without pitchers to support the scene. Needless to say, the nine ghosts themselves are good at skating, even if he has no characteristics and has such psychological qualities, Kataoka is confident that he will be molded.
After experiencing the baptism of Koshien, Kataoka realized more and more that although the skill of an ace pitcher is important, the psychological quality is equally important, and it is impossible for such an ace pitcher to survive to the end without the corresponding psychological quality alone.
Tojo's predecessors could only work hard in the field, and the nine ghosts thought that they knew very well how high Seido's level was. But after the actual game, it became clear to him that what little he knew before was far from enough.
Aren't these tough guys the right choice? So what kind of character is the main selection of Qingdao High School?
Of course, he also has a hint of happiness in his heart, the strongest team in the country, Wang Zhiqingdao, should have such a level!
This is why it is worth him to challenge.
"Whoosh!"
The Nine Ghosts finally used a beautiful slider to solve the third-grade hitter and complete the three-out. He conceded just two points in the second game, which was nothing short of impressive.
"You're a junior brother, you're quite powerful."
Yang Ping nodded secretly and communicated with Tojo beside him.
"Nine ghosts, he's really good."
Tojo smiled and nodded.
But the situation of the game did not change because of the outstanding performance of the Nine Ghosts.
"Good ball, good ball, good ball, strikeout."
"Out!"
"Out, three outs, offense and defense exchange."
In just a few minutes, the seniors of the second and third grades completed their own garrison.
Now it is Kawashima who is pitching, and he is not in the top five in the pitcher ranking of Seido High School. But to deal with the new students of the year, Kawashima himself is enough.
Qingdao's current pitchers are sorted, the first Sawamura, the second Gu Xiao, the third Yang Ping, the first Sichuan, and the fifth Kaneda! Kawashima can only rank sixth, seventh......
Of course, the reason why he was able to perform so well was that in addition to Kawashima's own strength, there was another important reason. That's because it's also the last chance for the third grade to prove themselves. You know, even if it's this opportunity, not every second- or third-year player can play. Therefore, every second- and third-grader who plays on the field is not allowed to have any slack on himself.
This tournament is not available to third-year players, and Kataoka wants every third-year player to show themselves, but this tournament is ultimately about selecting players who can come in handy in the future Kanto tournaments and summer tournaments.
For this purpose, some players who are not strong enough have no way to stand on the field.
For this reason, Kataoka specially communicated with the third-year contestants.
Because they are not given a chance now, it means that it is difficult for them to have a chance to be selected in their high school career, that is, they will never have the opportunity to play for Qingdao in their entire high school career.
No matter how slim the chance was before, it still existed.
And now, as long as this game is not played, there is no even that slim chance.
"We get it!"
Even if he knew Kataoka's intentions, no one at the scene blamed the instructor.
"We'll help you train."
It was their decision, and even manager Watanabe gave up the opportunity to play. Well, he didn't really have much of a chance.
Everything is for the Koshien Renba in the summer!
At this time, everyone already knew what Yang Ping said to his peers, Qingdao wants not only to be a champion, but to become a legend.
A legendary team that has made the most streaks and a team that has won all the championships.
And they are willing to add bricks and tiles to this legend.
