Chapter 7: The Legendary Man Who Can Throw a Ball Speed of 160 Kilometers (Part 1)
"Coach, I heard you're going to strip Sawamura of being a pitcher? That kid ......"
That night, Rei Takashima interceded with Kataoka.
Not to mention that she took a fancy to Sawamura at a glance, thinking that in that teenager's body, there was something that the Qingdao High School baseball team lacked, and it was a unique trump card.
Let's just say that Sawamura Eijun caused a sensation when he visited the Seido High School baseball team. Rei Takashima had no choice but to watch such a pitcher being wasted.
Although Superintendent Kataoka also regretted it, his attitude was very resolute.
"What kind of pitching style do you have to use to throw that ball almost 90 meters away? Now that I've said it. For the time being, I'm not going to let him go to the pitcher's mound. Just let him run until dark! ”
Takashima no longer insisted.
For the time being......
Unlike the unlucky guy Sawamura Eisuki, many of the first-year newcomers to the Seido High School baseball team showed extraordinary talent during the test.
They're either amazing in pitching! Either the striking strength is extraordinary! Either you have a good base run speed, or you have your own strengths. The best of these are the players who graduated from the junior baseball team. Especially those players who served as the main force in the era of the junior league in the country, their strength basically has a certain combat power.
Although at this stage, there is no way to charge the position of the first team of the Qingdao High School baseball team, but I believe that after a few months of tempering, they will definitely have a chance to attack the first team.
"The newcomers recruited this year are really different from previous years."
When Minister Ota was in private, he said to the people around him with a red face.
In this year's Qingdao High School baseball team, there are indeed a lot of very distinctive players, who not only have characteristics, but also have certain potential.
As long as it is cultivated, the future is limitless.
It's not just the superintendents, the ministers, the coaching staff, the top brass of the team,
Even the ordinary second- and third-year contestants already knew the news of the freshmen.
Ask yourself, they themselves think that the quality of this class of newcomers is about better than theirs.
The one they had in Koshien before seemed to have a remarkable effect. This year, Seido High School recruited only a lot more star players than in previous years.
Especially compared to the year of the third grade, it is a world of difference.
Although we weren't together during training, we were able to meet the rookie players during dinner. Gradually, the second and third year players are already very familiar with these newcomers, who is the best?
The first to bear the brunt are Zhang Han's two primary school brothers.
Because of Zhang Han's relationship, these two core main players who graduated from the Oriental Youth League have attracted great attention from the second and third year players of the Qingdao High School baseball team.
They don't expect all of them, as long as one of the two can play the strength of Zhang Han, then the hope of the Qingdao High School baseball team this year will undoubtedly be greatly improved.
It sounds like a dream, but it's definitely not a pipe dream.
The Qingdao High School baseball team would have such an idea, entirely because Zhang Han left a deep impression on them.
You must know that Zhang Han was in Songfang at the beginning, and he was not even the No. 1 player. There are people who are better than him, and there are several who are on par with him. Among the players on a par with him, there is Hideaki Tojo.
Last year, Hoshida, Miyagawa, and Zhang Han of their team.
These three newcomers from the Oriental Young Stick caused a lot of sensation.
Tojo, who can be on a par with them, has a reputation that is not much smaller than them, so why won't it be any worse, right?
That's what the guys think.
It's just that they didn't know that when they were in Matsukata. The reason why Tojo and Kanemaru are highly anticipated is mainly because they are a year younger than the main one.
It's not that their performance has really kept up with the level of Matsukata's core players.
Of course, for the time being, the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team can't know so much.
In addition, the two performed very well in the freshman test, and everyone paid more attention to them.
In addition, there are several newcomers who have performed well such as Takatsu, who have also received a lot of attention.
But it's not these guys who get the most attention, it's the other three.
The first one, of course, is Sawamura, who ushered in the opening stream of hell.
Although he adopted a somewhat peculiar approach, Sawamura succeeded in getting all the players on the Seido High School baseball team to memorize his name on the first day of school.
Regardless of whether he is famous or not, in terms of popularity, no newcomer can compare to him.
In addition to Sawamura, there is also a rookie who is said to have thrown a long ball more than 120 meters.
It's called Akatsuki Valley.
There is no tachymeter, but it is said that the speed of the pitch is also very impressive.
In the team, it caused quite a stir.
If it weren't for the fact that there were people with faster ball speed in the team, maybe Gu Xiao would be the newcomer that the Qingdao High School baseball team is most concerned about.
The last one is called Jinguji.
I'm not from Tokyo, but I'm from Osaka. Rejected Kiryu's invitation from Osaka.,Resolutely chose to join the Seido High School baseball team.。
As for why he came to Qingdao? The people in the team are also unknown.
This Little League National Tournament has led the team to the semi-finals of the giants. Why do you want to come to the Seongdo High School baseball team?
Although Seido High School is indeed quite good.
But the other party can't do it.,For the sake of the Seido High School baseball team.,Refuse Osaka Kiryu's invitation.。
You must know that last summer, the Seido High School baseball team only ended up in the quarterfinals. In the autumn competition, I didn't even make it to the cut.
Kiryu Osaka was the Koshien champion last summer, and it was the strongest team in the country to have the last laugh.
In the spring Koshien that is not over yet, Kiryu Osaka did not make it to the finals, but he also reached the quarterfinals.
No matter how you look at it, for Jinguji, joining Kiryu Osaka is much more suitable than joining the Seido High School baseball team.
Why did he leave his hometown and come to Qingdao on purpose?
This is a question that Minister Ota asked, the coaches of the coaching staff asked, and even Supervisor Kataoka asked it curiously.
Not to mention the players.
I didn't understand the situation at first, but I saw Jinguji's freshman entrance test, this is a Carl Ross!
And in some ways, he even surpassed Carl Ross.
Base stealing, batting, even pitching, all excellent.
Such a perfect player, why did he choose Qingdao in a daze?
Whenever everyone asks, Jinguji Temple, which is 183 centimeters tall, always shows a yearning look.
"I heard we had a super fast ball pitcher on our team, and I wanted to see the legendary pitch over 160 kilometers!"
Legend has it that more than one hundred and sixty kilometers of pitching.
No matter who Jinguji asks, the people in Qingdao have a very peculiar expression.
