27. Unexpected relays

The game was halted due to an unexpected injury to Watanabe, a pitcher from Aoba Dodai High School. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, in the rest area of Aoba Dodai High School, the team doctor of the baseball team was sitting on the bench to inspect Watanabe, who was also sitting next to him, and examining his injured right hand and arm.

"Hiss~~"

"Shhh ~”

"Pain Pain Pain Pain ~~"

"It hurts! ~”

After some examination, the team doctor was finally able to diagnose it: "Yes! …… It seems that he will not be able to play again in today's game, and now he has to go down the mountain to the doctor for a detailed examination, and I suspect that he has a muscle strain in his right arm and arm. But since there is no inspection equipment here, I am still not sure how serious his strain is! ”

"Is that so!?" After hearing this, Coach Kawano immediately gave an order: "Doctor Kanping, please go with him, please be sure to cure him!" ”

"Yes, please rest assured! ~" The team doctor Kan Ping Yunzhi nodded and comforted: "I'll cure him, it's just a strained muscle!" Once you've checked it out, you'll be able to check when you can continue playing! ”

"Whew! ~~" Hearing the doctor's words at this time, all the first-year freshmen in the rest area breathed a sigh of relief.

You must know that the doctor's tone just now sounded as if Watanabe's arm was very serious, and they were scared half to death when they lifted their hearts one by one. And now I hear that Watanabe is fine, but he will be fine if he strains his muscles and recuperates, so it's no wonder that the difference between before and after is so big that people can't stand it!

After finally learning that Watanabe was fine, the big guy's breath was finally put down, and everyone slowly put their energy back on this unfinished game with the Shirasugi High School team.

It's just that when I think of Watanabe, the only pitcher on the team who can take out his hand, is now injured unexpectedly, and the pitcher who can substitute him on the court is not selected among the first-year freshmen, which can make everyone on the first-year team and the coach and others worry half to death.

What to do!? ……

"Why don't ~~~ let Akai-kun replace him, his pitching speed is also quite fast." It was Oda Chenhachi, one of the outfielders, who spoke the proposal.

But even Akai couldn't listen to this proposal, let alone think about anything else, Akai objected: "Stupid, I have a bird for my ball speed!" I don't have the power of the ball, and I don't have the accuracy, do you want me to go up every game and send four bad balls in a row to send people back to send points!? Are you undercover, you~~~"

"Hey~~" Yitian Chenba hehehe

Then someone suggested, "Then Sato, will you go up!?" ”

Sato, who was named, also shook his head violently and refused: "Don't, you better choose someone else, I don't have as good ball control as Watanabe-kun!" ”

"That's ......"

"How are you going!?"

Ryuichi Horibe objected, "Why not you!?" Big stupid cow, your strength is better than mine. ”

Someone suggested that Hattagami was one of the few freshmen on the first-year team who had ever challenged Pitcher Hill to become a pitcher, but unfortunately he failed because he didn't have the speed and power of the ball.

But at this time, Hatta faced the temptation request of his partner to propose that he stand on the pitcher mound again, but he was very helpless and affirmed that he was beyond his power and did not agree to everyone's request to play as a relay pitcher.

As a result, the successive proposals were directly rejected by the named, and at this time, the big guy really couldn't find anyone else on the team who could be qualified for the pitcher position, so at this time, the first-year freshmen in the rest area all lowered their heads and looked dejected.

However, at this time, Watanabe Hisachi, who had been in so much pain that he couldn't speak, finally said something that shocked everyone after the initial treatment of the team doctor alleviated the pain: "Everyone~~ Everyone, why don't you think about Kasuga-kun!?" He was also the one who worked with me in the department to learn pitching training with Nakamura's seniors for several days! “

"Nani!?"

"Kasuga-kun!? ~“

"He ......"

"How is that possible!? ~~ Impossible, right!? “

In fact, at this time, don't say that other people will be surprised to the point that their mouths are wide open, even Kasuga, who was suddenly named by Watanabe, also looked frightened at this time, and couldn't believe that his friend Watanabe nominated him to be on the pitcher's hill: "Hey!? …… I!? If you want me to go up to the pitcher's hill to be your relay pitcher, Watanabe, you've made a joke, it's not funny at all, okay! No, absolutely not......"

"That's it, Kasuga-kun is as good as you! Someone added.

Kasugayun said with a wrong face when he heard this: "Hey... Although this is the truth, it hurts very much, don't you want to say it so bluntly! ”

The person who said that Kasugamo was not as good as Watanabe Hisachi before was this guy Akai, and he raised his eyebrows at this time and said, "You've only been learning baseball for a few days!" … Watanabe is an old man who has been playing for several years with a small stick and a green stick, can you compare!? ”

“~~”

Kasugayun was choked by Akai's words, and he didn't want it, so he didn't speak directly.

But Kasuga-yun doesn't speak doesn't mean that others have no opinion on Watanabe's proposal, and Hasegawa also said without confidence in Kasuga-kun: "In principle, I have no opinion on Kasuga-kun's play, but I don't have confidence in Kasuga-kun's pitching skills." ”

"I think so too~" Another first-year student, Takuya Saihirai, also said that he was not confident in Kasuga-kun's pitching.

Even most of the first-year students were thinking so at this time, but they didn't expect that they were talking so happily at the moment, and if Kasugamo couldn't play in the end, who could be qualified for the position of relay pitcher!

Fortunately, at this time, Watanabe said loudly: "Okay, I know that everyone sees that Kasuga-kun has only played baseball for half a month, and it is very difficult to make you have confidence in Kasuga-kun. But there's one thing you don't know...... Kasuga-kun's performance in the cowshed has made the Nakamura seniors pay more attention than me! ……”

Watanabe's words were a little vague, but some of the first-year people still couldn't help but think about it.

Well, here you can think that some human beings have committed the second disease again! This kind of thing happens here from time to time, so as soon as he saw that some people's expressions were wrong, Kasugamo immediately shook his head and refused: "Just kidding, Watanabe-kun, this proposal of yours is not good at all, I just want to be a quiet audience, so forget about the appearance, you still look for Akai-kun, he is very willing to relay the play!" ”

But then Watanabe said something that made Kasuga's whole person immediately look bad when he heard it: "Then why are you still practicing the skills recorded in your diary!?" If you don't like baseball, that kind of boring training is simply something that ordinary people can't stick to, even if that diary is your dad's relic, even if it's your spring dad's wish to let you play baseball, if you don't like baseball, who can force you to practice playing baseball! ”

Since Watanabe and Kasuga chose to train as pitchers, the other first-year freshmen who chose to be hitters on weekdays were not clear about the details of Watanabe and Kasuga's training, and it was not clear that Kasuga Cloud had a professional player training diary in his hand.

Of course, even if it is clear that the baseball skills recorded in the diary are at the level of professional players, in the entire baseball club, there are only coach Kawano and the ace pitcher Nakamura, the ace pitcher of the first army, who asked him for advice with the diary, and the other is the head of the baseball club, Tanaka.

At this time, Watanabe continued to persuade: "Kasuga-kun, I heard your father's story from Senior Nakamura. As a former professional baseball player, Kasuga Dad is the idol of those of us who have loved playing baseball since childhood! And you, the idol son, don't you want your father's baseball skills to be re-presented on the baseball field!? Isn't that a pity!? ”

Kasuga's face was gloomy when Watanabe's words were said, not an embarrassed look, but a little confused before he suddenly woke up......

Kasugamo was silent......

And the others didn't say anything because they didn't know the reason, so everyone in the rest area of this meeting was so quiet that they didn't know what to do!

After a while, Kasugayun was the first to speak to break the silent atmosphere in the rest area: "I......... Will it work!? ”

Hearing that Kasugamo had the will to loosen up on the pitcher's mound, Watanabe nodded with some strange excitement: "Oh! … Of course, no problem, you can just throw the ball with all your might, and as for ball control, I think Tsuchihara will help you catch the ball. ”

Catcher Tsuchihara is also one of the people in the baseball club who knows some things about Kasuga, so for Kasuga Cloud's pitcher Mound to be a relay pitcher, in addition to the initial surprise, Tsuchihara also feels that his partner Watanabe's decision to propose Kasuga Cloud to play is the most suitable moment for the next grade team to have no suitable relay pitcher!

Faced with the kind invitation of his two bosom friends, Harugayun thought about it in his heart.

He thought about why he joined the baseball club in the first place, and thought of his understanding of the sport of baseball after joining the baseball club; I thought of the diary I left behind from my father after the camp, and I learned that my father was an excellent professional baseball athlete before; I also thought of how much Kasuga's father hoped that someone could help him realize his dream of returning to the professional arena on the last page of the diary, but unfortunately this dream could never be realized, so Kasuga's father turned to hope that his stepson Kasuga Cloud could inherit everything about his baseball and have the opportunity to play a vigorous youth game in front of thousands of people in Koshien in the future.

Finally, Kasugamo agreed to Watanabe's proposal and was willing to try it on the pitcher hill relay.

And Watanabe and Tsuchihara, who saw this scene, secretly carried everyone behind their backs, revealing an inexplicable smile.

It's just that compared to Tohara, Watanabe's smile was more bitter, he looked at his former friend Inuya sitting on the bench in the rest area on the other side of the court, at this time he was afraid of facing the upcoming reunion between his beloved, and there was a hint of happiness that he was injured at this time, so he didn't have to face the scene of the first reunion of friends at this moment.

For a moment, Watanabe, who was helped out of the court by the team doctor and a logistics student, thought to himself: Am I afraid!?
