36. The new army was formed, and the rookie's back number was 28
Although the lineup of the three armies can only be regarded as the reserve lineup of the baseball club, and there are few opportunities to play on weekdays, and they are responsible for the daily training of the new students and some logistics management, but it is better than those who can't even enter the three armies!
After all, there are few opportunities to play, but there are still opportunities to play, such as the Spring League, which is the largest game in the country held specifically for them, the baseball reserve army!
Therefore, for the selection of the three armed forces, many students with mediocre baseball talent on the field at this time still attach great importance to it, and every new three armed forces squad students who are selected by name also get a round of applause from the people around him.

Soon the 16 students of the three-armed lineup were selected in a congratulatory applause, and the 16 students from various classes standing in front of the team also turned around at this time, put on the orange sportswear they received in their hands, and then bent down to thank the rest of the department: "Thank you very much for your support, we will redouble our efforts in the future!" ”
"Come on, seniors! ~”
"Come on! ~”
"Bang Bang Bang ~~~"
After the selection of the three armies came out, the students on the court who had not yet been selected into the new army began to get nervous, because the next one to be selected was the second army.
A team that follows the students of the First Army Election to go out to play games on behalf of the school from time to time, and is ready to substitute the First Army Candidates to play at any time!
Similarly, the number of the second army is also a standard configuration of 16 people, with 9 people selected and 7 substitutes.
At this time, coach Kawano began to open the list and said: "Then, next we have to select 16 people from the second team in the new baseball club." Please come to the front of the line and receive their new uniforms...... Well, the first student to be selected for the Second Army was Onta Hirose from Class D of the second grade. “
"Yes! ~"Hearing the coach shout his name, Hirose immediately shouted excitedly in response to the team, and at the same time, he quickly stood up and walked to the front of the team, and took the jersey of the second army from the hands of the manager, the beautiful Narita Mina.
At this time, Kasuga, who was standing in the big team, saw that the jersey in Hirose's hand was significantly different from the style of the three armies.
Because the Second Army can be regarded as a member of the baseball club, its jersey should naturally be made into a style that can represent the baseball club. The only difference from the first-army jersey is that the uniforms received by the students of the second-army squad are the kind without numbers on the back.
But even so, it is enough to make the next students who were selected for the second army a lot of excitement and excitement.
After the 16 students of the Second Army were selected by the coach to stand up and line up, everyone present at this time sent a round of warm applause and encouragement to the 16 students.
"Senpai Chikawa, you're amazing! ~“
"Oh, Ozaki-kun, look at what you kid can, you have to work hard after joining the 2nd Army lineup, don't lose the face of our baseball club!"
"Oh~~ I will definitely not disappoint everyone's expectations." Ozaki is a freshman in the first year, and this time he performed well in the training of the group and the next department, and finally entered the second team lineup of his dreams, so at this time he was very excited and kept shouting to thank some friends who supported him.
"Come on, Senior Yamazaki! ~“
"Hoshino, Hosokawa, you two are the main forces of the original three armies, and after entering the second army this time, you have to redouble your efforts to bring our share of the old three armies together
Go for it! “
In the end, the 16 members of the newly formed Second Army thanked the school, the coach, and the friends who accompanied them to grow up, and collectively shouted the slogan in unison: "Aoba Second Army, General Chang Sheng, Hu Huo~~~"
"Yay! ~~“
"Senior, you guys are the best!"
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
"Come on, 2nd Army, we're waiting to see how you perform!"
It was another celebration of all the members of the baseball club, and the 16 people of the second army also put on the new jersey jackets they received at this time, and lined up in front of the team with handsome faces, but they did not continue to celebrate their selection into the second army, but in the same direction as everyone's eyes, they all looked at coach Kawano.
Or, to be precise, at this time, everyone's eyes are on the last personnel list that coach Kawano is holding.
Because, what he will announce next is the main lineup of the baseball club - the 16 members of the first team.
Perhaps feeling the hot gaze of all the students in front of him, the expression on Coach Kawano's face at this time was more serious and serious than just now, and he said sonorously: "Then, the next thing is to determine the list of candidates for the first army!" Everyone, you should know what this means, right!? “
"Department!! ~" All the students of the baseball club responded loudly to the coach's words.
"The Aoba Dodai High School Baseball Club is the oldest sports club in the school and has been established since the school was founded," Coach Kawano recounted in response to the students' responses: "For more than 20 years, the Aoba Dodai High School Baseball Club has carried back the Koshien Winning Flag, which symbolizes the highest honor of the high school baseball league, four times, and 11 times has taken back the soil of Koshien...... And the last time our Aoba Dodai High School baseball club entered Koshien Stadium was 5 years ago!
In the past five years, there have been three classes of senior students in the baseball club, and they have volunteered and never missed the harsh and boring training in the baseball club every day......
Just for themselves to one day wear the baseball club uniform, step onto Koshien Stadium, and work hard for the last victory flag that symbolizes glory!
This is our Aoba Dodai High School baseball club, which has been silently fighting at the forefront for 5 years, even if it is a fall, injury, or tears, it is also the life of a group of senior students who do not hesitate!
Now, junior boys, are you ready to accept the consciousness of the seniors!? “
"Department!! ~~ Coach, we're ready! All the students shouted again.
After the students calmed down, Coach Kawano immediately announced without nonsense: "Okay, please stand at the front of the line with your head held high and accept the inheritance from our seniors!" …… The first person in the new team of the Aoba Dodai High School Baseball Club is the substitute pitcher Kasuga Cloud from the first grade Class A! “
"Wow! ~~“
"He was chosen! ~“
"Boom~~**** lucky boy~"
"Come on, Kasuga-kun!"
At this time, Kasuga, who was named by name, was completely stunned.
He couldn't have imagined, nor could he have imagined that he would receive the jersey of the First Army at this time.
As a rookie, especially a baseball rookie who has only been playing baseball for less than two months, Kasugamo has never felt that he has the ability to get the opportunity to be selected for the roster when the new team is formed this year.
Yes, even if it was the reserve lineup in the reserve of the three armies, he didn't think about it!
Because Kasuga, who has played baseball for one month, already knows very well in his heart that the talent required by the player required for baseball is not comparable to the players who are fanatical ball sports such as football and basketball.
It is precisely because of his understanding that even if he once had a little bit of expectation in private, but in the face of all the seniors who have played baseball for many years and accumulated rich experience but still can only achieve mediocre results, Kasugayun also feels that he is indeed inferior in baseball strength at the moment.
Therefore, today, until just now, Kasugamo did not expect to be qualified for the lineup list.
But right now, the most unexpected result for himself and many people in the ministry has really happened in front of him, how can this not make Kasuga's head suddenly blank and stunned!
Fortunately, Watanabe, a friend who was standing next to Kasuga, pushed Kasugayun at this time and woke him up: "Hela~~ What are you doing in a daze!? Don't hurry up yet, Yagayoro (stupid)! “
"Ah~~oh~oh, oh!"
Kasugamo walked out of the group and began to walk forward, and all the baseball students he passed, whether they were at his same level or older than him, put aside their prejudices or other ideas, and sincerely applauded them.
"Good boy, with you, after being selected into the first army, you have to train harder! Otherwise, senior, I won't let you go first! “
"Me too...... Good luck boy, do you know how much I want to be in the army!? Woo wow~~" Even a senior who had been selected into the Second Army cried out at this time, which shows how ...... he felt
”~~~“
Soon, Kasugamo walked to the front of the team and came to the middle of the group.
Koji Nakamura, the ace pitcher of the former First Army, showed a slight smile on his originally cold face at this time: "Boy, don't be too happy, although you were selected into the First Army, your strength is far from enough!" From the moment you put on the jersey, you have to be ready for hell training~~"
"Oh! ~" Kasugayun respectfully bowed down to Nakamura and saluted: "Department, senior, I will work hard!" “
"Come on, here's your jersey!"
After Kasugayun half-bent down again, he took the uniform symbolizing the baseball varsity team from the hand of his senior Nakamura, and stared intently at the brand-new uniform in his hand for a while before taking a deep breath to calm down the still somewhat excited mood in his heart.
Then Kasugamo stretched out his hands, spread out the jacket of the jersey and put it on his body, and once again bent down to the senior Nakamura and the coach to salute: "Thank you very much for the trust of the seniors and the coach, I will definitely redouble my efforts to train in the future and live up to the jersey I am wearing!" “
"En~" Nakamura and coach Kawano nodded in recognition of him with a smile.
At this time, Kasugayun did not stop thanking, he turned to face everyone in the baseball club and said loudly: "Also, thank you very much, thank you seniors for the care you have given me since I joined the department, thank my good friends for their help, really, thank you so much!" I swear by the No. 28 jersey on my back, this will definitely not be the end of the road, I have the same dream as everyone else, that is, to work with everyone to lead the team to Hanshin Koshien Stadium and take back the winning flag planted at the top of it!! “
"Oh oh~~"
"Well said, Kid 28!"
"Haha, it's kind of reliable! ~“
"Oh, it's up to you, boy with number 28!"
"Bang Bang ......"
All the students of the baseball club were moved by Kasuga's words, no matter what the previous Kasuga cloud was in the department, what his skills were, and what kind of person he was, but as long as he wore the number of the new army's jersey, Kasugamo represented a member of the baseball club's highest combat power lineup.
For the strong, ordinary people will be very respectful and respectful.
At this time, Kasuga, who was wearing a brand new No. 28 jersey, was one of the strongest in the eyes of everyone in the baseball club......
