After some commotion, the new recruits of the baseball club gathered around a few third-year former first-army seniors who had come to help them with special training, and walked to the court to start doing the new special training tasks they had just received today. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Kasuga, who was walking behind the crowd, was not like his teammates, with that kind of enthusiasm on his face, and he was looking forward to the next special training;

The confusion and bitterness on his face are the most direct manifestation of the thoughts in the heart of the spring clouds at the moment!

Because just now he looked around and saw that the special training plan received by his teammates around him was not a simple piece of paper.

It's just him!

He is the only one who has a special training plan of 5 sheets of paper, and it is the kind where both sides are full of content......

This made Kasuga Yun feel like he had offended the coach and let him train himself so much when he received the special training plan.

"Pounce~~Haha...... Kasuga-kun, what the hell are you doing!? ”

Suddenly, a wild laugh came from the front of the spring clouds, that kind of unbridled wild laughter, the spring clouds don't even need to lift their heads, just listen to know who this guy is!

I saw Watanabe, Kasuga's best friend, snatch the training plan in Kasuga's hand, and after opening it, he couldn't help but exclaim: "I'm ...... Kasuga-kun, your training plan is too good! This ~~ towels for 30 minutes, single-bullseye pitching for 100 consecutive balls, and rope throwing for 30 minutes...... Okay, Kasuga-kun, may I ask if you offended your coach Mr. Kawano and made him so cruel to you! ”

"Get it back! ~" Kasuga Yun snatched back his training plan, and then complained in a helpless and speechless tone: "I know there, you go and help me ask the coach if I offended him!" ~~ It's just a lot of training content in this plan, and give me a limited time to complete it, I, I, I really can't do it! ~”

At this time, it was obvious that he heard Kasuga's complaint, and Nakamura, the ace pitcher of the former First Army of the third grade who was walking in front, said with a smile: "You can rest assured about this, with me and Minister Tanaka watching you, you can complete 100% of the training plan." ”

"It's just the two of you who I'm worried about! ~~" I don't dare to say this, after all, something is a little bit wrong......

"Alas......" In the end, a thousand words turned into a mournful sigh, and Kasugayun resigned himself to follow the large army to the stadium.

However, his first training point was not in the cowshed as usual, but was pulled out to the side of the court.

There, Kasugamo saw a net with a single target hanging on the wall, and a basket full of baseballs about 18 meters away from the net.

Needless to say, everyone can guess what this is for, even if it is Kasuga, a beginner in baseball, when he saw this set of training props on the wall at this moment, his first reaction was: "This...... This should be single-target pitching training! ”

"That's right! ~" Nakamura, who is in charge of supervising and directing Kasuga, explained, "This is your training content today, single-target pitching training!" Even...... If you can't hit 100 balls in a row, then you don't want to do the next key training event! ”

"Whoop! ~~”

Kasugayun complained and scolded, but Nakamura directly ignored his complaint, took out a baseball from the basket straight to the topic, and said to Kasuga: "Don't be too nervous, although your current ball control is still not good, but here I will teach you a way to quickly improve your pitching ball control, watch me give you a comparative demonstration!" ”

"Oh~~ Come on! Please, Nakamura-senpai. ”

"First of all, the ball is pitched according to the normal pitching action, you see!" After saying that, Nakamura began to throw the ball with a boom-arm pitching method.

"Whew! ~~”

"Smack~"

The baseball hit the center of the target 18 meters away with extreme speed, and then unloaded all its energy and fell to the ground.

This ball is very ordinary, and Kasuga Cloud can't see anything special.

And then Nakamura reminded Kasuga: "Hela, the next thing is to teach you the pitching action that can improve your ball control more effectively, look at it!" ”

It's also a boom-arm pitching action, but Kasuga Cloud has a good eye to see that Nakamura has an obvious pause when he stretches his leg after shaking his arm, and then throws the baseball in his hand with his arm.

"Whew! ~”

"Smack! ~”

It's the center of the red heart target again, but this time I don't know if it's because of a pause when pitching, which caused the ball thrown by Nakamura to be stronger than the previous goal.

This made Kasuga, who was watching from the side, a little surprised: "Amazing, this ball can even improve the power of the ball!?" ~”

"That's right!" After Nakamura finished throwing, he turned to Kasuga and said: "Throw the ball according to this method, first, pause when throwing the ball with your arms, use your gloved auxiliary hand to point directly at your target point, and give yourself a mental hint of the goal before throwing the ball, so that you can effectively improve your ball control and throw the ball to the final point according to your pre-conceived ball path; Second, because it is also due to the pause when throwing the ball, you have more time to store during the pitching action, so this kind of pitching action can multiply the power of your straight ball. ”

"I see! ~"Kasuga Clouds suddenly came to his senses and immediately made the arm throwing that Nakamura prompted, paused, pointed to the target's storage action, and said: "It's here~~ After a pause, the storage force and the red heart target are remotely pointed, and then throw it hard...... That's right, Nakamura-senpai!? ”

"That's right!" Mr. Nakamura continued to remind Kasuga Yunlai: "Your movements are still very unnatural, but when you get used to it and turn it into your normal and natural pitching movements, I think your ball control will improve by then!" The next thing to do is to fade out this point-at-the-target move, because if you shoot the ball often like this, your opponent will soon be able to find this weakness after the adaptation period and deal a fatal blow to it, which is very important to remember! ”

"Oh! ~~ Okay, I see! Kasugayun promised.

At this time, Nakamura thought of a key point, which made him remind him again: "Kasuga-kun, because your pitching talent 'Thousand Illusions' itself has its own attributes, so when you throw any kind of ball, you will have a wrist flick action that is completely different from our normal pitchers at the moment of shooting, and the degree of force of your fingers is also different. I'm going to use this for you here~~"

Nakamura pulled out a glove from behind him, a glove that was not quite the same as a normal glove.

The first thing Kasugamo saw was that the design of the gloves was a semi-enveloped glove that exposed the tips of the fingers, and there were only three fingers, namely the thumb, index finger, and middle finger, while the ring finger and little finger were uncovered.

And strangely, the sleeves of the index and middle fingers on the glove are connected to one by two very hard leathers. In other words, it is impossible for the index finger and middle finger to be crossed.

When Kasugamo put this special glove on his right hand, he immediately noticed another difference in the glove: "Huh!? ~~ What's the matter with this glove, it actually has a restricted movement of fingers!? ”

Nakamura smiled at this time and said, "That's right, this glove is specially used to train junior pitchers to limit and standardize the strength and direction of finger force at the moment of shooting when practicing pitching. Don't underestimate this glove, the genuine version of this thing has to be specially ordered by someone, and the price is more than 100,000 yen!

And this is a copycat version, but the price is also worth tens of thousands of yen!

This is a prop specially customized by the coach Mr. Kawano for you to train your ball control, so you can wear it to pitch when you can pitch! ”

"Hay! ~~ Thank you so much to the coach, I will work hard! ”

"Yes! ~" Nakamura glanced at Kasugamo with satisfaction, and greeted him: "Go ahead, go and try to practice throwing~~"

"Hai~~"

After Kasugayun said yes, he took out a baseball from the basket wearing this special glove, and soon he discovered that the three-finger envelope on the glove was limited to his three fingers!

"Hey~~ It's really strange that it will also form a certain pulling and fixing effect on the wrist and fingers at all angles~~"

So, with curiosity, Kasugayun experimentally stood in the position with gloves on and threw the ball hard.

But at the moment when he hit the ball, the glove brought him to pull and fix, so that Kasuga's fingers could not use all the strength when he hit the ball, and finally the baseball was softly thrown by him to the ground about 1 meter in front of the target.

"Hiss~~" Kasugayun covered his right wrist with his left hand and looked at Nakamura in surprise and asked, "Senior Nakamura, this glove is very strange!" ~~ When I shoot, my fingers can't use any strength at all, what's going on!? ”

After Nakamura heard Kasuga's question, he nodded and said, "That's right, this is a special glove specially ordered by the coach Mr. Kawano, and it is said that it can only allow pitchers to throw speed balls in one way!" If you want to throw a slider, a stretch or a straight ball that doesn't follow the rules it was designed for, the two different materials of plastic on the glove surface will limit the wrong movement of your fingers, so be careful! ”

"What!!??? ~~I'll go...... Who designed this thing!! ~"Kasugayun was speechless.

However, Nakamura didn't care what you thought, and continued to greet Kasugayun in cold blood and ruthlessly continued to pitch: "That's a lot of nonsense, continue to throw a few more balls, and adapt to it as quickly as possible!" ~Otherwise, you'll have a good time in the next few days! ”

“~~~”

At this time, Kasugamo saw his teammates who were scattered on the court for their own training, and the expressions on their faces were almost the same as his, and it seemed that although the content of the special training faced by everyone was different, the difficulty of completing the training content was definitely not lower than that of Kasuga-yun!
