What is it like to compete in Koshien?

Originally, Zhang Han thought that everyone would be excited and enthusiastic.

Just like when their little friends from Matsukata entered the national competition, the adrenaline was pumping, and everyone looked crazy.

But it didn't.

Standing on the arena of Koshien, each player behaved very cautiously.

It's not even cautious, it's restrained.

Zhang Han originally thought that everyone would burst out with 120% strength, or even stronger strength.

But in fact, they didn't even play 90% of their strength.

That's about 80 percent.

Compared to being in the limelight in Koshien, everyone seems to be more reluctant and embarrassed in Koshien.

Cameras, cameras, hundreds of photographic equipment, crackling at them.

Every player knows in their hearts that their performance will be clearly recorded in the camera and broadcast in front of fans across the country.

In this case, they are very stressed mentally and psychologically.

Not only the friends of Qingdao, but also the players from Baoxian High School who had entered Koshien before, were also not much better.

They are also very cautious and never allow themselves to have any accidents.

When attacking, they don't dare to make rash moves, and when they are defending, they do their best.

In the second game, the score of the two sides was still 0-0.

When Seido High School attacked in the first inning, Captain Tanaka took the lead in winning a hit, and Hidesawa hit a short hit in the second to keep it safe.

One is out, and there is someone on second base.

The Qingdao High School baseball team has a very high probability of scoring points first.

In this case, those fans who support them are naturally extremely excited.

In particular, many of the students from school stood up excitedly.

They can't wait to witness Seido High School score first in Koshien.

But that hope was soon dashed.

The ace pitcher of Bosen High School, a third-year pitcher with a monk's head, took advantage of a strong pitch and struck Yamada with a strikeout.

Immediately after that, they met the strongest hitter of the Seido High School baseball team, and Higashi Kiyokuni, who is also known as the strongest baseball team in Tokyo.

Supporters of the Seido High School baseball team are looking forward to witnessing the next scene.

They can't wait to see the heroic swing of the Eastern Qing Kingdom.

They also believe that no matter how strong the pitchers of Baoxian High School are.

Dongqingguo will definitely be able to beat him.

There is no reason, there is no reason, but they just believe it.

But Bao Xian didn't give them a chance to witness.

The pitcher who looks particularly strong, the ace who looks like he dares to take on any hitter.

Hardly any hesitation, opted to use the four bad balls.

Then Dongqingguo was escorted to the base.

Two outs, one or two bases.

Although they did this, the fans of the Seido High School baseball team in the stands booed again and again.

But that doesn't change the situation on the field.

The players of the Seido High School baseball team looked at each other one by one.

Does the other party think that the beaters behind Dongqing Kingdom are easy to deal with?

If they really think so, then the players of Qingdao High School will inevitably feel sad for Baoxian and them.

Dong Qingguo is indeed the strongest hitter on the Seido High School baseball team, yes.

But he is definitely not the only reliable hitter in the team.

"Fifth baseman, first baseman, Tetsuya Yuuki."

At this time, it was the turn of the blow to Yuuki, the fifth baton.

Everyone waited for Yuuki to teach the opponent a lesson, but they didn't expect the opponent to use a high lob ball to seduce Yuuki Tetsuya to swing the bat, hit a high fly, and was caught and killed.

On the other side, Hidesawa is also in trouble.

Although he successfully won three outs, a runner from Baoxian High School also advanced to third base.

They were only a little bit of luck away from picking up points.

If they were a little bit luckier, they would have won the first game.

Before the game, neither side was convinced.

I think that although the opponent has some strength, it is not difficult for them to win.

But after the real fight, whether it was the supervisors of the two teams or the players, they were all shocked.

Only at this time did they clearly realize that the other party's strength was not much inferior to their own.

Koshien's arena is a tournament that gathers the best of the nation.

In the first round, there may be occasional underdogs.

There is no way to do this, one representative from each district and county.

Some places are particularly strong, such as Kanagawa, Tokyo, Osaka, etc.

It is a fierce battle zone itself, and the team that kills from there cannot be weak.

But there are also some remote areas where local baseball is underdeveloped, there are few teams, and the competition is not fierce.

In such an environment, it is difficult to produce too strong a team.

So in the first round of Koshien, it is normal for a team that is not strong to appear occasionally.

By the second round, this was rare.

The teams that make it to the third round are definitely the strong teams.

Those who can reach the fourth round are 100% giants or teams with giant strength.

This is the truth of Koshien, and every step forward is equivalent to climbing a high mountain.

In addition to the fact that it was particularly difficult to climb the mountains in the later stages, there was also a great battle that was also particularly difficult.

That's the first game!

In such a competition, in addition to the possibility of encountering that kind of weak chicken, it is also possible to encounter particularly strong dark horses.

In addition, the players have to adapt to this venue, and the team itself may have various problems.

In short, the first battle of Koshien is also very important, and it is also the most unpopular.

Qingdao High School played against Baoxian, and the supervisors of the two teams were secretly annoyed.

They were unlucky to be in such a situation.

The opponent's strength is not weak, and there are frequent problems on his side because of nervousness, and he can't even play his original strength.

In this case, there is a particular need for someone who can break the deadlock.

Whichever team takes the points first will undoubtedly have an advantage.

In this way, the game came to the first half of the second inning, and the Seido High School baseball team attacked.

The fans in the stands kept shouting Qingdao's name and cheering for the beaters on the field.

This makes the players of Baoxian High School very strange.

Qingdao High School is the turn of the sixth batter and the lower hitter, what are they doing so energetically?

Could it be that they think that if the upper middle line fails to score points, the lower players can still score points?

"Sixth bat, guerrilla, Zhang Han."

The friends around me may be because they have been too eager for this stage since they were young.

So much so that after standing on the stage, I was so excited that I couldn't play my original strength at all.

That's not going to work!

Zhang Han put on his batting gloves, tightened the bat in his hand, and stood in the strike area.

He also appeared on the stage of Koshien for the first time in his life, and hundreds of shooting equipment aimed at him.

In the sky, remote-controlled planes hovered above him.

Everything seems so dreamy.
