Chapter Eighty-Eight: Seven Wounds (Third Update)
Dr. Yuan Chongming circled around Zhang Han twice and asked again.
The answer is exactly the same.
Zhang Han's ball speed has indeed reached 157 kilometers.
"What grade is this kid in?"
"A sophomore in high school, just turned sixteen."
Yuan Chongming looked at Zhang Han's eyes like looking at a legendary rare treasure. He couldn't believe that a legendary lightspeed ball pitcher appeared in front of him so alive.
Pitchers who can throw more than 150 kilometers are rare. But basically in every era, there are always a few.
One or two when it's less, two or three when it's more, or even more.
The dream of Koshien for high school students has gone through hundreds of years of precipitation, and there are many such players who have a record to check.
In the early years, due to the lack of such equipment as speed guns, there may have been omissions.
In short, such pitchers, although rare, are not unseen.
On top of this ball speed, it can soar to more than 155 km/h, which is very different.
In the history of Koshien, such pitchers can be counted on their fingers.
In the past ten years, there have only been two in the entire high school baseball world.
A super genius who can only produce one in ten years was caught by him today, and it was still in his small clinic.
Yuan Chongming, how can there be a reason not to be excited.
Fortunately, he was still quite calm, and deliberately searched for Zhang Han's name with his mobile phone.
The tournament broadcast by TV Tokyo is certainly well-known.
It didn't take much effort for Yuan Shigeming to find relevant videos and large-scale reports.
He seemed very excited, and even took a photo with Zhang Han.
Takashima was smiling all the time, and obviously enjoyed seeing this scene.
Even Ochiai showed a somewhat relieved expression.
He suddenly realized that staying in Qingdao might be better than he had imagined.
If you have this kind of pitcher on the team, do you still need to worry about exposure?
Only Kataoka looked at his watch in a bit of a hurry.
He still wants to go back and continue training those players, after all, the semi-finals and finals are back-to-back.
After a few days, they had to face a crucial challenge.
Semifinal!
Only by winning the semi-finals of the spring tournament and successfully advancing to the finals can the Seido High School baseball team participate in the Kanto Conference.
Originally, it was just that he didn't make it to the semifinals, but now that he has reached this point, Kataoka certainly won't give up the opportunity to participate in the Kanto Conference.
For the Qingdao High School baseball team that is in the run-in, the experience of the competition and the experience of the masters are very lacking.
Before the summer tournament begins, it's a little bit to make up for it.
"Doctor, what is the situation with Zhang Han?"
Hearing Kataoka's question, Rei Takashima and Ochiai's faces showed a little shame.
They patronized and admired the expression on Yuan Shigeaki's face, and they neglected the most important thing.
Hearing Kataoka's question, Shigeaki Hara also calmed down. He glanced at the information in front of him and met Kataoka's gaze.
Seeing the solemnity in Kataoka's eyes, a trace of regret flashed in his heart.
Of course, he knows what it means to have such a lightspeed pitcher on the team.
For high-level pitchers, they can lead a team on their own.
Just because there is a good pitcher in the team, the whole team follows the rising tide and goes all the way to Koshien, and achieves good results in Koshien.
It's often the favorite of those comic book authors.
It's not all fiction. Although in the 21st century, there are fewer and fewer opportunities for such stories to be staged.
The wealthy have been helped by capital, coupled with the system of special enrollment.
So that the power of the giants is getting stronger and stronger, and it is difficult for a dark horse to shake them.
But hard doesn't mean no, before the twenty-first century, when capital was not so free.
This kind of story happens almost every year.
Those comic book authors are not all made up, most of them can find some basis.
And a lightspeed ball pitcher like Zhang Han has such an ability.
Once he joins Qingdao and pitches freely, then the dynasty of Qingdao High School may be established.
Giants plus light speed ball pitcher.
How can such a combination be invincible?
It's just a pity that such a combination is destined to exist only in the comic world.
"It's not the player's problem. However, I still have to regret to tell you that Zhang Han has no way to become an ace, at most he can only be used as a substitute or rotation pitcher. ”
The statement given by Yuan Chongming shocked everyone's hearts.
"You said he had a broken bone before, and now he has a bruised finger, but it's actually a minor problem. This speed is not only a burden on opponents, but also a great burden on players who are growing up physically. In the last game, hundreds of goals were thrown. If he keeps throwing at this pace, even if Zhang Han can hold on, his index and middle fingers may be deformed. Coupled with the growth of his body, he may not be able to throw this ball speed in the future. Kanagawa had a pitcher with a ball speed of more than 160 kilometers before, and it was for this reason that they supervised him as a substitute instead of making him an ace. In fact, not only in high school, even if he went to professional baseball, for this reason, he could only serve as a relay in the team. Theoretically, over 20 years old, preferably 21 years old. Waiting for the body to completely stop developing, and when it is fully developed, it is the best choice for them, the pitchers of the lightspeed ball. Of course, if Zhang Han can master a very fast ball speed since he was a child, and he has been exercising. Although he still can't finish every game, he can arrange more pitching opportunities, which is no problem. But Zhang Han obviously does not belong to this situation, he is a monk halfway. My advice is to keep your pitches no more than 40 per day and increase them slowly. Growing up like this, although it is difficult to be an ace in high school. But if you enter professional baseball in the future, you may be able to grow up even earlier. Also, even if Zhang Han's pitching doesn't have any side effects, my advice is not to shoot too much. This is not only a pressure on the pitcher himself, but also a challenge for the pitcher's partner. According to statistics, those partners who pitch 150 kilometers all year round will have some deformation in the hand they receive the ball. The catcher is also a young man, and his body is still growing, and if he is allowed to receive a lot of this kind of ball, it will be very detrimental to his development. ”
Speed is also power in itself!
When the speed of the pitch is pitched, the degree of violation soars later.
It does not [ ] affect only the opponent, but also itself.
Zhang Han, who was listening from the sidelines, suddenly felt that his pitching was a little tall.
Isn't this the Seven Wounds Fist?
1,000 wounded and 800 self-inflicted.
That's really the way it is for lightspeed ball pitchers.
In a game, the pros outweigh the cons. In the long-term growth, there are also huge hidden dangers.
