"Now, I can't be lazy..."

Despite Zhang Han's situation, the third-year Qingdao players were caught off guard. But when you think about it, it seems to be a matter of course.

The pitcher in high school was already overconsumed by the outside world. The training intensity of the aces of the giants even exceeds that of professional pitchers.

With their bodies that are not yet fully mature, this kind of training intensity and competition intensity is very dangerous.

Zhang Han's own ball speed is so fast, and the burden he carries is probably several times stronger than that of other pitchers.

If in this case, he is also able to stand on the pitcher's mound and throw the ball with impunity.

The guy from the Qingdao High School baseball team should take him to the hospital and give him a full body examination to see if this guy's body structure is still not human?

It is normal to have such restrictions.

After accepting this, the way they looked at Tambo was different.

Although they knew in their hearts that there was an element of encouragement in the words of Superintendent Kataoka. But as long as Zhang Han can't shoot the whole game, Danbo's chances of playing will not be affected too much.

The only thing that may affect his state is probably the trump card being replaced.

The explanation given by the overseer was whether it was to comfort Tanbo or whether he really intended to use Zhang Han as a target to attract enemy fire.

can be regarded as giving Danbo face, so that he, the previous trump card, will not lose face.

As a third-year player and an important figure on the pitching mound, Tanba has now been promoted to a very special position by Kataoka's supervisors and coaches on the coaching staff.

If he doesn't want to work hard, he can't.

Tanba was impressed.

Heart-to-heart, although he still aspires to be the team's true ace. But as far as Zhang Han's performance in the practice game really handed over the position of trump card to him, he also felt that he was invincible.

Now he is in good condition, he can stand on the pitcher's mound without distraction, and fight side by side with his friends.

The third-year contestants, after Tamba returned, took the initiative to come to his side.

Although they did not speak, they gave this fellow student the greatest encouragement in action.

Zhang Han was very uncomfortable.

It's not because of what Superintendent Kataoka said.

Zhang Han was not so vulnerable, because the overseer told a few words of truth and fell into a tangle.

What really made him uncomfortable was the gaze of the friends around him.

Although some players have guessed before, the reason why Zhang Han can't keep throwing the ball on the pitcher's mound is because his ball speed is too fast and the pressure on his arms and wrists is too great.

But the vast majority of players don't know the news.

Even before Inspector Kataoka brought it up, they had never thought about it. They also thought that Zhang Han had not recovered from his previous injury, so he had not become the team's trump card for a long time.

The current result is both happy and sad for them.

Happily, the dark clouds that had been in their hearts before could finally disappear.

Zhang Han's injury is not as unrecovered as they feared, but has already recovered.

What worries is whether Zhang Han, who has no way to pitch on the pitcher's mound all the time, can stabilize the situation on the court in a critical situation.

At the same time, they are also worried that Zhang Han forcing himself to pitch like this will leave any hidden dangers to his body?

Although the vast majority of the players on the Seido High School baseball team have only been in high school, or college at best.

There are very few people who can really enter professional baseball.

Unfortunately, Zhang Han is one of these rare people. Judging from the talent and strength he is showing now, even if this guy really goes to the professional baseball arena, he should have good potential.

Such a rising star could be scrapped by over-pitching......

As companions, each of them was very worried.

This is also what Zhang Han can't stand the most.

In fact, Kataoka's supervisors and coaches on the coaching staff have been very conservative.

In the last few months alone, I have taken him for three or four examinations in a row.

After almost every pitch, a review will be carried out, for fear of accidentally overconsuming Zhang Han's shoulder.

But Zhang Han is not a glass person, except that everyone didn't know at the beginning that he had been overconsumed. After several checks, there were no problems.

Even the doctor said that there should be no problem with an all-out pitch of thirty or fifty balls in the short term. The only thing to be careful about is not to over-rely on it.

When the doctor said this, he stared into the eyes of Supervisor Kataoka.

A ball speed like Zhang Han, with his leadership, is enough to make a team burst out with combat effectiveness far beyond people's imagination.

This temptation is too great!

But there must be no dependencies, and once they are formed, all the restrictions that were set before are gone.

It's not that the doctor hasn't seen such a situation before, and he is obviously a very good seedling, but he was ruined by some selfish supervisors and coaches.

In the beginning, those guys didn't act like bad guys. But at some point, people will change......

In addition to telling Kataoka, the doctor also called Zhang Han aside alone.

The awareness of the players is more important than supervision.

Although the doctor knows, even if the player is reminded, it is difficult for the player to do exactly what he wants.

When the supervisors and coaches are looking at you with keen eyes, when the team really needs you, can you say that you can't?

A teenager is at the age of ignorance and recklessness.

Doctors are just doing their best and obeying the fate of God.

It was also after that inspection that Superintendent Kataoka solemnly assured Zhang Han that he would not be allowed to become an ace pitcher.

During the entire Kanto Convention, except for the last game, Inspector Kataoka can be regarded as truly fulfilling his promise.

This time, Zhang Han was promoted to ace.

At first, Zhang Han was very surprised, but when Kataoka overseer, he told everyone about Zhang Han openly and honestly.

Zhang Han understood that his own overseer had no intention of breaking his promise.

The reason why he did this was really to use this way to attract the attention of his future opponents.

Kataoka has already told everyone that if he breaks his word and gets fat, he excessively lets Zhang Han throw the ball on the pitcher's mound.

How will he establish himself in this team in the future?

What other prestige does he have to lead a team of giants?

Of course.

There is another very important reason that forced Superintendent Kataoka to make such a choice, and one that everyone is reluctant to mention now.

That's their team's previous trump card, it's really unreliable......

Tamba is very good, and because of his personality, he is prone to collapse.

If he was the ace of the team, once he was beaten and collapsed, the Seido High School baseball team would lose half of the game.

Zhang Han, it's different.

As long as he is not standing on the pitcher's mound, then no matter how many pitchers on the Qingdao High School baseball team are defeated, the morale of the players will not be completely destroyed.

and Zhang Han, who didn't play!

As long as you have such an idea and such confidence, Qingdao can definitely go further.

Standing behind Superintendent Kataoka, Ochiai kept stroking the mustache on his chin, quite breathtaking.

"I really took everything into account."

A few words not only solved Tambo's ideological problem, but also made reasonable arrangements for the team.

This person is not just going to move his mouth and incite the morale of the players. He's also very good at leading the team.

These two aspects are combined, even if it is Ochiai, it is not as good as it.

It's not that he can't think of such an arrangement, the key is that he can't do it like Superintendent Kataoka, so that everyone is willing and convinced.

The dust has settled on the trump card, and the next thing is the players in other positions.

Kataoka's choice was not too unexpected for everyone, and it was basically based on the results of the players.

Kawakami, No. 11.

As an important rotation pitcher for the team, this back number is just right for him.

The young man was very excited, and his eyes were red.

No way, who let the position of pitcher on the Qingdao High School baseball team be so fiercely contested?

If the two freshman pitchers in the first year were all stayed, he would have been abandoned because there were too many pitchers.

Now with this result, although he doesn't know what will happen to the two first-year pitchers?

But he himself is finally safe for the time being.

Number 12, Chris.

I didn't be able to fight for the good fortune, and I didn't become the tenth.

Chris is undoubtedly very surprising in this back number battle.

But if you think about it, maybe it's the best arrangement. At the beginning, Miyuki looked at Chris's back and chose the Seido High School baseball team.

Now, it's up to him, the third-grade senior, to escort Yuyuki.

"Please!"

For the other players, Superintendent Kataoka said a lot.

But for his most proud disciple, he only said four words. But in these four words, there are countless expectations for him.

"I'll try!"

Chris didn't seem to be too disappointed, and calmly took over his back number.

"You're so lucky to have won over Senior Chris."

Kuramochi said with a smile to Miyuki beside him.

"You're luckier and picked up a starter."

In terms of intimidating people, Yu Xing is at the level of the ancestor master, how can he lose.

"Hee-hee, that guy has already won the back number of the trump card, and he doesn't look down on me as the number six."

Kuramochi is not angry at all.

"Then you're really useless, you rely on other people's handouts to get a starter. I have earned this by myself. ”

Miyuki said, clenching his fists.

He was still unwilling, although he fulfilled his dream when he first joined the Qingdao High School baseball team, and successfully took the No. 2 back number from his idol.

However, this is mainly because Chris has a full seven or eight months of gap in between.

He has been the team's main catcher since last summer, and has experienced the growth of Koshien and more than a year of experience.

Even so, he only won by a slight margin over Senior Chris.

If there is no gap of seven or eight months, if the two sides can compete in full swing and fairly.

Maybe the current result will be completely different......

"Senior......

Seeing Chris return to the group, Miyuki opened his mouth and couldn't say anything valuable.

Christopher, a shrewd man, immediately understood Miyuki's knot.

"Don't feel sorry for me, it's been months since I recovered. In this scramble, you don't have to win. You took it by strength, work hard, number two. I'm not going to just give up, I'm going to find a way to win it again. ”

Next time, it's Koshien.

"But ......"

"It's nothing, but don't forget that I'm a year older than you. In terms of unwillingness, I am even more unwilling than you. ”

Zhang Han was beside the two of them and listened to the conversation between the two people throughout the whole process.

What kind of immortal senior is this, his position has been taken away, and he can still comfort the junior who took his position.

Comparing his heart to his heart, if he changed Zhang Han's words, he would not be able to do it no matter what.

Sawamura said before that Chris is a very gentle person.

To be honest, Zhang Han practiced with Chris in private, and he really didn't see it.

But now it seems that Senior Chris is really a very gentle and admirable senior.

No. 13, Inside the Palace.

……

No. 16, Nanmu.

When Senior Nanmu's name appeared, Zhang Han was finally relieved.

In their dormitory, the two people in the second and third grades finally joined the first army.

Although Nanmu has been in the first army for a long time, this time it is really a big challenge for the third-year seniors, and anyone may be eliminated.

Now, his name can be announced in advance, which must have a lot to do with his handsome appearance.

After all, people who grow up well will never have too bad luck.

When Nanmu returned to the team, he high-fived Zhang Han and celebrated.

The picture of two handsome people combined made several team managers very excited.

"It's worthy of being a member of the beautiful men's dormitory, this is also too handsome..."

"Tojo, who joined this year, is not bad ......"

"It's still our family's Hansang, the most ......"

Superintendent Kataoka couldn't listen anymore, and an eye knife flew over.

Led by Senior Sister Guizi, the four girls obediently closed their mouths.

They finally understood the situation in front of them, this is not a place for them to gossip, and the announcement of the number is very serious.

Not to mention, these four lists at the end.

There are too many people involved.

Third-year seniors Yamazaki they ......

Aso, a second-year student, Maezoen......

and the four first-grade guys, their eyes are about to come out.

The choices full of suspense are all on the last four people.

Superintendent Kataoka also seemed to feel everyone's attention, and took the list in his hand, and paused for a long time without speaking.

Just when people felt that they couldn't bear it anymore and didn't need to endure it anymore, Superintendent Kataoka finally spoke.

"No. 17, Jinguji!"

The name itself was very unexpected.

So much so that when Superintendent Kataoka spoke, the originally slightly noisy environment became audible.

Before the list was announced, the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team had already analyzed a lot in private.

According to their previous analysis, although the performance of the two rookie pitchers was flawed, the overall score was also low.

However, from the perspective of the future development of the team, it is almost impossible for them to be eliminated.

Next year's Qingdao needs them, and the next year's Qingdao needs them even more. To put it bluntly, they are the future pillars of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Kataoka's supervisors and coaches on the coaching staff will not be able to remove the future pillars of the team in any way.

Is the team still not developing?

Not to mention, in terms of the talent and strength they are showing so far, many people in the team are also looking forward to their performance in the summer.

In this way, there is a future, and the player who has strength now, the probability of being eliminated is too low.

If you want to eliminate people in a year, it should be Jinguji Temple and Kominato Haru.

Although the comprehensive score of these two people is relatively high, especially Kominato Haruichi, it is the first place.

But after all, it's a first grade, and it's not reliable enough for everyone to entrust them with heavy responsibilities.

To give the simplest example, Kominato Haruichi has a higher rating than his brother, and the two of them play another position.

Kataoka supervisors and coaches on the coaching staff, is it possible that because of this rating, Ryosuke Kominato will give up his place for his younger brother?

It's simply not realistic.

So the score is just a reference, and Kominato Harushi may still be kicked out because the first army team doesn't need it.

Jinguji Temple, too. Even the probability of him being kicked out is greater than that of Kominato Haruchi.

Unexpectedly, the first grade, which was most likely to be eliminated, actually won the seventeenth.

Does that mean?

Without waiting too much, after Jinguji got the number, Superintendent Kataoka directly announced the back numbers of the remaining players.

"No. 18, Eijun Sawamura."

"No. 19, Kominato Haru."

"On the 20th, Dawn of the Valley."

As everyone thought, Superintendent Kataoka selected four first-year recruits based on the strength of the players and the future development of the team.

His eyes are not limited to this summer, but also the next two years.

This also laid a solid foundation for the Qingdao High School baseball team to build a dynasty.

After the list was announced, Kataoka let all the players on the list, including the first and second year players, leave.

Zhang Han and a few third-grade seniors hid in the corner, listening to Superintendent Kataoka thank the remaining third-year players.

"Thank you for believing in me and for your dedication to the team. Even if you leave the baseball team in the future, please hold your head high and tell everyone that you were once a member of the Seongdo High School baseball team, and I am truly proud of you! ”

The players who stayed cried.

The third-graders who were hiding in the corner also cried.

Zhang Han, the second-grade ace, also felt that his eyes were moist.

On his first day as an ace, he was saddled with the dreams of these third-year seniors who had actually quit the team.

This summer, whether it is for those third-grade seniors or for Zhang Han, who has just become an ace.

There is no way back.

They can only move forward with their heads held high.
