Chapter 18: The Little Angel's First Army Practice Debut

Hit a home run and hit a home run back.

The home run of Thunder City did a lot of damage to the Seido High School baseball team.

Although before the game, Superintendent Kataoka had told everyone on the Seido High School baseball team when he had a meeting.

The main purpose of their practice game today is not to win the opponent, but to adjust the team, and the most important thing is to adjust the pitcher lineup.

So in today's game, it doesn't matter what the pitcher is hit.

The key is to see how the players react after encountering a crisis, whether they have passed?

It's a test.

Almost all the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team are well aware of this test.

But it's one thing to understand, it's another to do it.

Watching baseball being knocked out, watching their men lose not long ago and flex their muscles on their own turf.

How can these sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys of the Qingdao High School baseball team endure it?

Their eyes have changed, and their attitudes towards this game have also changed.

In any case, they can't let this scene continue. The Qingdao High School baseball team can't afford to lose someone like that.

The players of the Seido High School baseball team are ready to bounce back and launch a counterattack.

But the pharmacist high school baseball team is not easy to mess with.

Especially now, people have just won a home run, and now they are in high spirits.

In the rest area of the Yakushi High School baseball team.

Thunder Zang's interest is very high, and he keeps directing the players to attack.

The second player to stand in the strike zone was their team's first-year player, whose name was Kazuma Akiba.

He is also one of the three main first-year students of the pharmacist, and one of the hole cards that the pharmacist high school baseball team deliberately hid before.

At the beginning of the game, the pharmacist high school baseball team was like playing with their lives, almost pressing everything they had on the field.

On the other hand, the Seido High School baseball team.

Although they also paid a lot of attention to today's practice game, they were obviously different from the focus of the Yakushi High School baseball team.

At the beginning, the Seido High School baseball team didn't think about winning or losing. They just want to test their team by playing practice games against strong opponents, what's the problem?

Especially two first-year pitchers, what kind of strength can they play in the same level of competition?

This is what Supervisor Kataoka and the coaches of the Seido High School baseball team coaching staff are eager to know.

This difference in perception directly caused the Qingdao High School baseball team to suffer a big loss at the beginning.

They were hit a home run.

This is not the end, Xiaoya Xiao, who has just come on the field, encountered such a major crisis as soon as he came on the field.

Not to mention that he is such a newcomer, even if he is a veteran gunner-level pitcher who has been in a lot of battles, when he encounters this situation, there is a high probability that he will make mistakes.

As for Xiaogu Xiao, not only is he a newcomer, but at the same time, in the training of the last few days, he has already exhausted his physical reserves.

At this time, he actually didn't have much physical strength, and his physical condition was not good, his muscles hurt, and even his bones hurt......

In the process of pitching, there was no way for Xiaogu to go all out and use all his strength.

The more this is the case, the more Xiao wants to put all the strength of his whole body on the pitch.

But the more he thought about it, the more his strength could not be exerted.

Against Akiba, his pitching was barely any improvement compared to before.

Not even to mention progress, it is already very good to be able to maintain the current situation without regression.

Such a pitch, in Akiba's eyes, is still very fast.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Akiba would have been incredulous that the guy standing across from him was just a first-year grader like him.

Unlike Thunder City, Akiba and Mishima are both from regular youth base. Although the youth club where they are located is not a super giant like Songfang, their strength is also very good.

In the process of learning baseball in the youth baseball, Akiba can be regarded as having seen some of the world, and there are many powerful pitchers.

But none of these pitches can pitch faster than Shang Gu Xiao.

This guy is such a monster!

Thinking of this, Akiba's brain inevitably began to diverge.

This is the same as them, the first-year pitchers, the pitching speed is almost like this.

Legend has it that Zhang Han, the first person in the entire high school baseball world, is the fastest ball.

What an unbelievable speed will his ball reach?

It's exciting to think about.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

On the first ball, Akiba didn't shoot.

It's like this isn't the ball he's waiting for.

Although, it is not ruled out that this guy deliberately let go of the first ball and wanted to observe first.

But Yu Xing still chose to continue to use the same type of ball to duel.

Judging by the situation of their last game, Akiba should be one of the few normal people in the Yakushi High School baseball team.

He is very thoughtful and by no means an impulsive person. When he made that choice, it was probably because of the first goal, not the ball he wanted to choose.

Miyuki's guess is actually not wrong.

The first goal of Akira Tsukiya is indeed not the way Akiba wants to choose.

But that doesn't mean he can't play this way.

The ball speed is really fast!

Looking at the flying baseball and feeling the amazing momentum above, Akiba's heart is pounding.

Entering high school and starting to play against these top giants in the country, Akiba really understood a truth.

When they were young and young, they thought they were well-informed and had seen a lot of powerful peers.

But in reality, their so-called insight is not so complete.

At that stage of junior high school, there were many very capable players who did not appear on the youth league stage at all for one reason or another.

That is, it is impossible for them to meet at all.

For example, it's like the thunder of their team, and the Akira of the Aomi High School baseball team in front of them.

In this year's West Tokyo, among all the newcomers in the first grade.

Both of them, without a doubt, are among the best.

But these two top players, in the era of the national youth baseball, they are not famous at all.

It wasn't until high school that they were able to actually meet.

It's really exciting to be able to play against such a talented player.

Akiba is excited.

Especially when you are sure to kill the other party, this excitement and excitement will expand many times.

Here it comes!

Before the game started, they did a lot of practice on the ball throwing machine.

With a ball speed of nearly 150 kilometers, this is definitely the top fast ball pitcher among high school students.

But......

In order to deal with Zhang Han before, they had used their eyes to adapt to the ball speed of 155 kilometers.

Now looking at the 150-kilometer pitch of Gu Xiao, it doesn't seem to be so fast.

In particular, Akiba also found that Akira Tsuki's pitching did not have the momentum they had seen before.

The momentum that seems to be devoured by a monster.

Now Gu Xiao's straight ball looks a bit similar to Zhang Han's straight ball, or to put it simply, it is a straight ball with a pitching machine, a bit like!

I will definitely be able to hit such a ball.

"Ping!"

The swing of the autumn leaves, without any hesitation, is clean and neat, and does not drag the mud and water.

The baseball, which was hit, flew high and drew a perfect arc in the sky, falling into the outfield.

Jun Izaki tried his best to get to the landing point of the baseball, but he was still a step too slow, and the baseball bounced in front of him.

"Damn!"

The fatigue of the body can be restrained in the short-term physical outburst, and once the long distance is running, it is impossible not to affect the speed.

If Jun Izaki hadn't just finished the training camp, he would have been training until 8 p.m. yesterday, and then he practiced 200 swings with his friends.

He should be eighty percent sure of this ball, and he can go straight to the next ball.

But now, he can only watch the baseball bounce back, even if he pounces on the rebounding baseball and doesn't let the baseball fall behind him.

The person who should have been on base, or on base.

"Safety!"

No one is out, there is someone on first base.

The hitter who followed him was Sanada, the third baseman on the Yakushi High School baseball team and their ace pitcher.

"Ping!"

This guy seems to have a special feeling when playing straight balls. Without waiting for Gu Xiao to shoot the second ball, he hit the ball very cleanly.

This is not the end, he himself took advantage of this ball to run to second base.

Akiba, who was originally on first base, also ran to third base.

If it weren't for Zhang Han, who was guarding in the outfield, if the return pass was timely this time, maybe the pharmacist high school baseball team would have completed the overtake by now.

No one is out, there are people on second and third base.

The pharmacist high school baseball team ushered in a very good opportunity for a comeback.

In the rest area of the Seido High School baseball team.

Although before the start of the game, Superintendent Kataoka had already explained that their goal in today's game was not to win.

But seeing the team and being in such a huge crisis, everyone in the team is still inevitably anxious.

"The opponent of this practice competition is really ......"

Coach Ochiai commented thoughtfully.

Yakushi High School baseball team, although they won the game against Daocheng Industry before, the Qingdao High School baseball team has never regarded this team as their main competitor.

If you meet in the summer tournament, the players of the Seido High School baseball team are sure to win.

Use such a powerful opponent, but it is difficult to pose a mortal threat to the Qingdao High School baseball team, as the opponent of the practice game.

The Seido High School baseball team naturally has its own considerations.

They think they want to test their own quality and the problems that the team has right now. Although the pharmacist high school baseball team is not their best choice, it is also a relatively suitable choice.

But now it seems that their idea may not be accurate.

There was one thing they didn't expect. That is the offensive ability of the Yakushi High School baseball team, which is far beyond the imagination of the Seido High School baseball team.

Perhaps in other aspects, the players of the Yakushi High School baseball team still have a lot to lose, but in terms of offensive ability, they will definitely not be inferior to the three giants of Nishitokyo.

Use them to test two first-year pitchers, and of course there's no problem.

These two first-year pitchers, no matter how badly they lose, are good grinds for them personally.

If there is a player who performs better in this practice match, he will easily stand out.

Superintendent Kataoka and the coaches of the Seido High School baseball team coaching staff would never mind giving this player more opportunities in the summer tournament.

But there is one thing that the Seido High School baseball team can't accept.

At least those players in the arena can't accept it anyway.

That's the fiasco!

In the process of testing two first-year pitchers, the Seido High School baseball team missed an opportunity to lose today's game......

This result is acceptable to the players of the Seido High School baseball team.

It's all about the team.

But if you want them to lose more than a dozen points in today's game.

They couldn't accept it anyway.

So they won't allow that to happen, even if they use all their might.

Still, what should have happened happened.

"Ping!"

The person in charge of playing the fourth baseball on the Yakushi High School baseball team is a little fat man named Mishima.

This guy is very rampant when he speaks, and he claims to be a genius at every turn.

People who often say this kind of thing are generally not much stronger.

Mishima is an exception.

He is also one of the monster trio of the Yakushi High School baseball team, and his striking strength in the Yakushi High School baseball team is only inferior to that of Thunder City.

Basically, you can sit firmly in second place.

Now, it is he who hits the ball cleanly.

The white baseball fell behind the third baseman.

It's a super long hit.

The runners on second and third base returned to home plate one after another to help the pharmacist high school baseball team and score two points in one go.

The score on the field became three to one.

The Qingdao High School baseball team trailed by two points at the start of the game.

Seido High School baseball team is suspended.

Supervisor Kataoka and Miyuki try to help Akira Shibuyani get back on her feet.

They did a lot of work, but in the end it all came to naught.

Next, facing the fifth and sixth basesticks of the Yakushi High School baseball team, Xiao's balls were still played out one after another.

Although the ball hit by the 6th batter was stopped by Ryosuke Kominato and Kuramochi, it was beautiful.

As a result, the Seido High School baseball team successfully won the first out.

But the crisis they are facing has not been alleviated because of this.

One out, there's someone on second base.

Xiao's pitching still has speed, and there is no momentum or tail momentum at all.

"Qingdao High School baseball team, request for a replacement pitcher."

In this case, Inspector Kataoka's patience was consumed.

He couldn't stay silent any longer, so he shot decisively.

Sawamura, who was in the first grade, replaced Xiao Yutani.

Eijun Sawamura, representing the first team of the Seido High School baseball team for the first time, participated in a practice game.
