The city university is a junior high school and loses the game.

The third-year contestants of the city university, led by Ohmae, wept bitterly one by one.

It can be seen that they are in pain, despite having made it to Koshien in the spring and winning the quarterfinals in the tryouts.

But this result is too far from the goal they have in mind......

Unlike the Inagi Industrial High School baseball team, although they also lost, their players at least won the championship in Koshien in the spring.

Although there are regrets, they are not annoyed.

The contestants of the third high school of the city university are different, for them, the results they have won are really not worth mentioning.

They didn't accomplish the goal in their hearts, and they said goodbye to high school baseball completely.

As an ace pitcher, Tianjiu Guangsheng looked even more depressed, he was alone, standing on the pitcher's hill.

I tried to tilt my head up, not wanting tears to flow.

But it didn't work, tears still overflowed down his eyes, and they merged into two streams, rolling down.

"Light Saint?"

Led by Hoshida and Miyagawa, a group of second-year players took the initiative to surround their pitchers and looked at Akuku Mitsusheng worriedly.

In good conscience, in this game, their ace performance is still good.

It's just that because of a gap of a few months, in the late stages of the game, his physical strength and energy can no longer keep up.

Only then was the players of the Yakushi High School baseball team caught the opportunity and reversed the game in one fell swoop.

If there was not such a long blank, if he could come back a few months earlier, even if it was two months earlier......

The outcome of the game is very likely not to be the way it is now.

"You're all the best boys..."

Superintendent Tahara, tears are also in the pouring of tears.

In his eyes, his boys are really very good, and the reason why they lost the game was only because of bad luck.

The Yakushi High School baseball team, which defeated Inagi Industry in the spring tournament, lost only one point to the Seido High School baseball team in the practice game.

Now it has defeated the three high schools of the city.

What exactly is sacred?

In the original impression of Supervisor Tahara, although the Yakushi High School baseball team was not a weak team, if they wanted to pose a threat to them, I am afraid that there was still a long way to go.

I didn't expect that in a short period of time, the other party was able to do this, which is incredible.

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team were also very shocked. Around them, as long as they are not fans of the third high school of the city university, whether they have followed to support the pharmacist in the original way, or they have followed the pharmacist in this game.

There was a bloodthirsty and excited light in all of their eyes.

They were already drawn to the furious baseball style of Yakushi High School.

"That's how a baseball game should be..."

"This is student baseball, those guys from big high schools are becoming more and more like professional baseball players. There is only a pharmacist, and he looks a little energetic. ”

"You've played so well, we'll be here to cheer you on in the final!"

"Lei Shi, you're so handsome at swinging your stick!"

The sound of cheers rose and fell throughout the stands.

Since the spring tournament, he has played against the Yakushi High School baseball team. Qingdao understands this old opponent very thoroughly.

Originally, they all thought that the reason why the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team lost in the spring competition was entirely because of their own negligence and failure to take the opponent seriously.

When it's all said and done, it's their carelessness.

As the overlord who had just dominated the country, they didn't take the Yakushi High School baseball team seriously at that time.

As a result, the final tragedy cannot be avoided.

Careless for the team of the giants, it is like poison, if you don't get it, it's just that, as long as you get a little bit of it, you don't know how to die.

The Qingdao High School baseball team faced the pharmacist twice, and as far as their own friends were concerned, they won the game relatively easily.

They take it for granted that this dark horse that suddenly appeared should not be a big deal.

If the three giants were not prepared, it would not be inconceivable to suddenly encounter such a dark horse team, because of the lack of intelligence and the negligence at the beginning.

After all, if there is a mental calculation and no intention, the unintentional one will definitely suffer.

But as long as the three giants are ready and know that the Pharmacist High School baseball team is an opponent that cannot be taken lightly, as long as they can take the game against the Yakushi High School baseball team seriously.

The people of the Seido High School baseball team, whether it is their supervisors or players, take it for granted that the Yakushi High School baseball team should not be enough to shake the three giants of West Tokyo.

The background of the two sides is too different, and the difference in strength is visible to the naked eye.

They don't stand a chance!

Just like today's game, before the start of the game, most of the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team, although they all thought that the pharmacist could create some trouble for the third high school of the city university.

But if you want to say that you can win in the end, it is probably one of the three giants.

The difference in strength between the two sides on paper is too great......

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team never imagined that it would be such a result in the end.

In the stands on their side, as far as the eye can see, there are all figures cheering for the pharmacist high school baseball team.

Not only the performance of the players, but also the support of the fans, they are not inferior to the senior high school of the city university.

At this time, it looks even stronger.

"We were wrong!"

Chris said with heartfelt emotion.

This is not only his own idea, but also the thoughts of many players on the Seido High School baseball team.

They were really wrong, they underestimated the Pharmacist High School baseball team. They have always believed that as long as they are mentally prepared, it is easy to win this dark horse team, not to mention finding out what they want.

As long as the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team don't have any problems themselves, they can win the game almost 100% of the time.

But now, I saw with my own eyes that they had the upper hand in a head-on clash with the three high schools of the National Normal University.

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team couldn't help but fall into confusion.

They ask themselves, is there really nothing wrong with their previous thoughts and opinions?

It doesn't seem right.

This dark horse is no longer the dark horse team they know, the other party not only defeated Daocheng Industry in the spring competition, but also defeated the city university in the summer competition.

Of the three giants in West Tokyo, they have already overturned two.

In one case, you can say that it is a coincidence, and you can be cheeky and quibble, saying that it is caused by the baseball team of Daocheng Industrial High School itself.

But what about two failures in a row?

The three giants of Western Tokyo, no matter how thick-skinned they are, at this time, they may have to admit that the strength of their opponents is over.

"They're strong!"

"It's growing very fast."

"The game the day after tomorrow is not as simple as we imagined."

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team stood up from their positions one after another and walked out of the court.

In the process of walking out of the court, they kept looking back at the arrogant city university junior high school.

The expressions on the faces of the top three players in the city university were extremely flamboyant, and they all looked as if they were about to take off.

changed to other giants, and only won a semi-final victory, and behaved so crazy that it was inevitable that people would complain.

It's a disgrace to the giants.

But the pharmacist high school baseball team is not a giant team, they are just a dark horse team.

People are qualified to be arrogant, qualified to be arrogant, and qualified to show off here.

As a dark horse team, if they don't even have this momentum, why should they challenge the three giants of West Tokyo?

In the words of Kameda, the well-known commentator of this match, the pattern of Nishitokyo began at this moment and completely changed.

A forbidden thing that originally belonged only to the three giants, the finals.

Finally, a new contender is ushered in.

This is a game between the old and the new, and this is a super battle between the giants and the dark horses.

"To be honest, I'm a little envious of the guy who is about to talk about the finals."

Kameda said sincerely.

"What do you have to envy? Haven't you already received an invitation and signed the contract? ”

The narrator who cooperated with him widened his eyes and looked at Kameda with a resentful expression.

Kameda had a smile on his face.

"yes, I'm so envious of that guy named Kameda."

The narrator's jokes did not enliven the atmosphere on the field.

Cry when you should cry, laugh when you should laugh......

Whether it is the players on the field or the fans in the stands, they are still immersed in their emotions at this time.

Of course, while laughing and crying, they can't help but start to think.

What will the final scene become?

The last of the three giants in western Tokyo is the Seido High School baseball team that just won the championship at the Kanto Convention.

Will they be able to maintain the face of the West Tokyo giants and block the frantic attack of the Yakushi High School baseball team?

They couldn't help but start looking forward to it.

Before the final in Nishitokyo had even begun, the atmosphere was already stirring up.

Of course, the organizers will not let go of such a good opportunity, and they took advantage of this opportunity to hype it up.

Koshien!

The qualifying final in Nishitokyo was no less than the Koshien race.

In fact, not to mention the finals, the two semi-finals in a row are very exciting and dizzying.

When it comes to the excitement of the game, ordinary Koshien games may not be able to compare.

In particular, the battle of the century between the Qingdao High School baseball team and the third high school of the city university is even more impressive.

By the next day, the newspapers were overwhelming, and the video clips on the Internet were even more exciting.

There are also two-dimensional fans, who made the battle between the two teams into an animation of The King of Fighters.

Take out the two teams, the players in all positions, and compare them one by one.

In the end, relying on the huge advantage of Zhang Han and Yuuki, the score of the two sides was 95:88.

The Seido High School baseball team led by 7 points, firmly suppressing the super dark horse of the Yakushi High School baseball team.

Don't look at the difference of just seven points, not all the positions of the pharmacist high school baseball team are worse than the Qingdao players, and most of the ratings are not much worse.

The really overwhelming advantage is that there are three on the side of the Seido High School baseball team.

Deducting the one in the lead of the pharmacist, there are only two of them who are really significantly better than each other.

The two of them are seven points ahead, so it is not difficult to see how much confidence Zhang Han and Yuuki bring to people?

"Nonsense, why are the opposing partisans half a pound or two with me?"

After seeing the rating, Kuramochi was furious.

You can just say Carlos or White River, these two players overlap with him in position, and their performance is indeed no worse than him.

But the long-standing shortstop on the Yakushi High School baseball team, if it wasn't for a special report in the newspaper, they didn't even know each other's names before.

Why is the other party's rating the same as your own?

'You're in the quarter-finals and semi-finals, you've had two good performances in total, and he's done twice. People say that you are half a pound and eight taels, but it is not completely unreasonable. ”

Although Yu Xing didn't care much about this form, he saw that the other party put his evaluation on the same level as Zhang Han.

Miyuki thinks that the other party is still somewhat level.

The analysis makes sense.

"If you're not convinced, just get it back on the court."

Zhang Han suggested very conscientiously.

"When will it be your turn to pour me poisonous chicken soup, do you want you to say this kind of nonsense?"

"This is not what I said, this is the original words of our supervisor, you actually said that the supervisor said nonsense, it seems that I need to talk to us all about it, this style of the team ......"

Zhang Han is a serious Shanggang online.

Kurachi's face changed, "Who said that just now, who?" ”

He didn't even admit it.

The two first-grade elementary school brothers watched a few second-grade gods tease each other here.

I felt like a cool breeze was pouring into my neck, swishing.

"The main players of the First Army, do you usually get along like this?"

The outside world says that the first team of the Qingdao High School baseball team, everyone's goal is the same, and the three views are similar.

So basically, there are no contradictions, no intrigue, everyone is working towards a goal.

But how can a few first-grade elementary school students not feel it at all?

"The seniors are joking, you don't have to take it personally."

Sawamura Eijun saw the embarrassment of his companions, and the little angel had a seizure, and he helped a few elementary school brothers to channel their psychology in a serious way.

"You know very well, come here and let the senior teach you well."

Kuramochi smirked.

Every time he fights with Yu Xing and Zhang Han, these two guys with poisonous mouths and black bellies can always hit the nail on the head and leave him speechless.

Kuramochi held back the evil fire in his stomach, and there was just no place to vent, but he didn't expect Sawamura Eijun to take the initiative to bump into him.

A junior brother in his own dormitory, so knowledgeable and interesting, where can Cangzhi live up to his good intentions.

He must have a good and cordial exchange with his junior.

The kind with fists.

The screaming voices kept going away, and Zhang Han and Yu Xing were also honest.

When the two of them are teasing Cangzhi, they are very measured and will never go overboard.

It's not that they can't say anything that makes people more angry, it's just that they hold this guy's violent personality and self-control is not very good.

If it's just a lip service, they are not afraid of 10 warehouses.

But if you really want to do it and tie the two of them together, I'm afraid it's not an opponent of the cang.

Although this guy has not learned sanda fighting, he has been fighting from the streets since he was a child, and he has a strong combat ability.

He didn't need to learn, just relying on instinct to fight, it was not something that Zhang Han and Yu Xing could parry.

"Three records in one game, compared to last year's super newcomer, this year's nickname is obviously much better."

Kuramochi left, and Miyuki picked up the magazine in his hand and congratulated him with a smile.

The expression on Zhang Han's face was a little disapproving.

In recent times, the newspapers that have praised him have eighty if not a hundred.

Not to mention the videos and messages on the Internet, which are overwhelming.

If Zhang Han is really self-absorbed because of these things, then he won't have to do anything else in the next period of time.

It's beautiful to just sit at home and dream by yourself.

Where is the need to work hard to play baseball.

"The higher we win, the worse we fall, and if we don't do well this year, we will be eliminated in the final. Or in Koshien didn't even play the first two rounds...... What these people praise me now, they will scold me in the future. ”

They have all been held to the sky, can they still land smoothly?

"There is a saying that if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. While gaining such fame, this is also the price you have to pay. ”

After Miyuki entered high school, he grew up very quickly.

Now he is not just in baseball, he has a high personal opinion.

Even in life, it seems that I have stepped several steps forward.

Zhang Han nodded.

How could he not understand such a truth? As long as he's determined to go down the path of baseball, that's what he's going to have to go through.

"Do you hate that?"

Miyuki asked with concern.

Although Zhang Han has not specifically publicized it in public, as a small partner in the team, many players in the Qingdao High School baseball team know it.

Zhang Han's goal at this time has been aimed at professional baseball, and he is ready to make a difference in the professional arena.

With Zhang Han's appearance, even if he plays baseball averagely, as long as he is not too bad and can score some results, his reputation will not be low.

After all, in this world of looking at faces, his face is like a special pass, and it is much easier to become famous than others.

Not to mention, Zhang Han's ball skills are not bad.

This is not talking about potential, and the Seido High School baseball team has a lot of cooperative scouts, and Supervisor Kataoka accompanies them every eve of the summer tournament.

Although they do not come into direct contact with the players, they are still very conspicuous in the eyes of the handwashers.

First of all, they are accompanied by the superintendent, and everyone understands what kind of character Superintendent Kataoka is.

The person who can have Superintendent Kataoka accompany him must be someone he thinks is very important. If it was only for Kataoka to supervise himself, only for himself, he wouldn't be like this.

What can make him do this willingly must be for the sake of these disciples under his hands.

So who will be useful to his future disciples?

It must be the group of people who can influence the future of his disciples.

To put it bluntly, it's either a college supervisor or a professional scout.

These guys are all full of brains, big bellies, suits and leather shoes, oily hair and flour......

It may not be very apt, but such an image is still evident on the court, and the players can almost immediately see it.

In the words of these people, Zhang Han's future is unlimited.

Miyuki even heard the voices of these people in private.

"Whoever can pull this player into his command will definitely make a lot of money..."

Although the salary they pay Zhang Han will not be low, the money that Zhang Han can help them earn in the future will definitely be higher.

Even several times higher.

Yu Xing believes that if Zhang Han takes the path of career, he should be very promising.

But if Zhang Han doesn't like it or rejects it, just like now, if he hates these media very much, there is no way to adapt to media interviews.

It doesn't matter how much he will achieve in the future, no matter how much he loves baseball, it's better not to go professionally.

Hearing Yu Xing's concern, Zhang Han gave him a reassuring look.

"Don't worry so much, I'm not as fragile as you think!"

Media, Zhang Han really doesn't like it.

Maybe it's because he's so smart that he can always see some not-so-good details.

However, he was not intolerable.

"People, you have to learn to compromise. When I was six years old, my mother sent me back to my hometown, and I had already learned. ”

Zhang Han's words made Yu Xing's nose sour.

is similar to Zhang Han, and his family is not perfect.

"Yes, we adapted to this society earlier."

This world is never fair to everyone.

Some people are destined to be treated differently by fate and thus become more sensitive and mature than others. Although they usually laugh and laugh, they mingle with the friends around them.

But they just hide the negative side of their emotions and don't want to show it to people.

It's not that they don't have negative emotions.

In the morning and afternoon, the team's training intensity was not very high, and the friends completed it easily.

Since last night, Superintendent Kataoka and the coaches of the coaching staff have not called everyone together for a meeting, nor have they discussed how to deal with the Yakushi High School baseball team.

It seems that it is too late to prepare tactics in advance to rehearse tactics.

This is not surprising to the friends.

After all, the time is too short, only a little more than a day in total. In addition, they originally thought that their opponent was their old rival City University Sangao, and the Qingdao High School baseball team focused most of their attention on City University Sangao.

They don't think that the dark horse pharmacist high school baseball team can bring much of a threat to themselves.

Unexpectedly, this dark horse team that was not paid much attention to by them before really reached the finals.

This broke Qing Dao's previous thoughts, and also disrupted their previous arrangement.

Although it is said that it is cramming, it can play a role in some ways.

But the supervisors and coaches apparently didn't think that would be enough to change the situation and help them beat the Pharmacist High School baseball team.

Instead of wasting time and energy on these illusory things, it is better to adjust your state wholeheartedly and give full play to your strength.

As long as the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team can give full play to their strength?

They think that victory will be their own.

At least that's what Kataoka's supervisors and coaches think.

Until it was close to evening, when the friends finished dinner and finished washing.

Ota informed everyone that they would go to the combat conference room for a meeting.

"This is the time for a meeting?"

Zhang Han was surprised.

I don't know what they think, do you really think that just a simple meeting can help tomorrow's game?

You have to know the performance of the Yakushi High School baseball team, but no one expected it before.

The Qingdao High School baseball team was not mentally prepared for this at all.

The one who was hit the hardest was Koichiro Tanba, who had already made an appointment with Manaka, and the two of them reached the final together.

They separated when they graduated from junior high school and joined different wealthy families. One is the original trump card, and the other is the original best substitute.

Known as a golden partner.

said that as long as the two of them are there, they can lead the team all the way.

It's just a pity that in the end they lost to Matsukata and didn't make it to the whole country.

At that time, he tried to make an appointment with Koichiro Tanba and entered the third high school of the city university together.

"Tanba, there are things that we haven't been able to do when we were in junior high school, so I'm waiting for us to work together when we enter high school."

At that time, I really wanted to do it, and my eyes flashed with persistence.

Obviously, he hopes to be able to enter the same high school as Tanba.

It's just that Tanbo, who has always been timid and introverted, was not able to agree.

"I've accepted Qingdao's invitation."

Manaka felt as if he had been betrayed, and he really couldn't understand that his best partner, his best friend......

Why would you betray yourself on such a critical issue.

"I can also keep looking at your back, and occasionally I want to try it myself."

Tanba's decision made this pair of inseparable good friends go their separate ways from then on.

After the quarter-finals, both teams advanced to the last four.

They are away from meeting in the final, with only one last game left.

All of them are already in their third year of high school, and they have let go of their former mustards, re-acquainted themselves with themselves, and met their friends.

They agreed that since they were not able to be teammates, they would not have the opportunity to play side by side in a team.

Then become an opponent and make a final finish on the final court in Nishitokyo, on the highest temple Jingu Stadium.

Tanbo, who was originally a substitute, originally wanted to use practical actions to let his former friends take a good look at it in the final finals.

Was his original choice right?

Unexpectedly, they were successfully promoted, and the friends they agreed with have been standing in the sun.

was completely defeated by the dark horse team that came out of an unknown corner, and the three high schools of the city university were also eliminated.

The blow to Tanbo is unimaginable.

After the semi-finals, he looked particularly depressed.

Even when he was in a meeting, he kept his head hanging down.

Superintendent Kataoka saw it and sighed helplessly.

Since he was relieved of the burden of the trump card, he originally thought that Tanba had let go of his burden and overcome his original weakness.

I didn't expect it to be like that at all.

He just took off the burden of the trump card, unloaded the burden on his body, and became more brisk.

That's why in the process of pitching, I was able to perform so well.

But that's all, the problem stems from his personality, and it has not been fundamentally solved.

After Zhenzhong was about to be eliminated, his mood was so strongly disturbed, how would he play in the finals after that?

In addition to this, there is also a word from the big nose doctor.

"In this game, there is nothing wrong with Zhang Han's body! I have to say that we are lucky. But if he is often asked to vote like this in the future, it will be a matter of time before something goes wrong. I don't know how he managed to soar to such an extent with his height and weight. But there is one point, which is on the bright side. That is, when he throws the ball, he must have burst out with all his speed and power! Such a heavy load, with his current body, simply can't bear it. Even ......"

The big nose looks like he wants to talk and stops.

"Or even what?"

Superintendent Kataoka asked.

Ever since he learned about Zhang Han's situation, he felt that a sword of Damocles was hanging over his head.

Every time I use Zhang Han to pitch, I am scared.

"Of course, this is just my personal opinion, and I can't completely count it, and the specific ones need to be further checked."

"Just say it!"

The big nose is deliberately paved, but Kataoka, as a language teacher, doesn't understand what the other party means.

He spoke directly.

It means to tell the big-nosed doctor clearly that there is no need to hide it, and you can tell him what you think.

A smile appeared on the face of the big-nosed doctor.

Not all team supervisors really care about the bodies of their players.

There are a lot of people who care more about the team's results than about the players.

He cares more about the bonus given to him by the school after the team scores well.

In contrast, Superintendent Kataoka is really a good supervisor who thinks about the players.

Take Zhang Han as an example, in the hands of those black-hearted overseers, they won't care about the future development of this player?

As long as Zhang Han is in high school, he can stand on the pitcher's mound and pitch the ball, and he can lead the team to victory.

Even if he was crippled directly after graduating from high school, these overseers would not see it.

"Even in the professional arena, it is best for Zhang Han not to be a pitcher, this road will increase the risk of injury."

"Huh?"

The words of the big-nosed doctor surprised Kataoka very much.

"It's so explosive, you have to know he's only sixteen, and he's not as mature as other high school players. He is not yet fully developed, according to our last test, his future height can grow at least 5~8 cm. Do you know what kind of concept this is? ”

"You mean?"

Superintendent Kataoka already has a guess.

The big-nosed doctor nodded affirmatively, "If he continues to throw like this, he may be able to throw the highest human ball speed and throw 170 kilometers beyond the human limit!" However, the body structure of us Asians is not as good as that of blacks and whites. Do you think we can withstand the limits that even their bodies can't withstand? ”

Superintendent Kataoka fell silent.

It's no wonder that Dr. Big Nose predicted that letting Zhang Han continue on the pitching path would increase the risk of his future injuries.

The 160-kilometer lightspeed ball pitch is one of the few in history, so take these players out and take a closer look.

Basically, it's not hard to find that the vast majority of their careers aren't very long, with the occasional exception or two being due to talent.

With the exception of these two gifted individuals, none of them are Asian.

Even the man who once set the No. 1 ball speed in high school is said to be able to soar to more than 165 kilometers at the fastest ball speed.

He also adjusted his pitching rhythm and stopped using the lightball too much.

Otherwise, his body can't stand it at all, and the catcher who catches the ball for him may be crippled after a long time.

Zhang Han, do you want to be such a pitcher?

You must know that in addition to the characteristics of the light speed ball, his other pitches are not very threatening......

In contrast, if he becomes a shortstop strongman, his future may be brighter.

After all, other people's talents are there, and you don't have to be a pitcher.

"Do you mean to persuade me to give up being a pitcher?"

"In high school, I didn't have a good cameo once in a while. But considering the future, it's better to let him be a full-time fielder. I haven't been in contact with Zhang Han for a long time, and in my own opinion, that child is much more mature than ordinary children, otherwise you can talk to him personally......"

Doctor Big Nose's suggestion, Inspector Kataoka listened.

Unless forced to do so in the finals, he plans to follow through on his previous practice and exclude Zhang Han from the pitcher.

He did this, perhaps the vast majority of the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team could not understand his hard work.

Even Zhang Han himself, I'm afraid his heart will be full of question marks.

But as the supervisor of the team, as the teacher of these players, there are some things that Inspector Kataoka feels that he has to shirk.

It's like this thing.

He thinks he should be a little more arbitrary.

Because of this, even if Koichiro Tanba didn't perform well in yesterday's game, Superintendent Kataoka still intends to entrust him with a heavy responsibility.

But after seeing Tamba's current state, Superintendent Kataoka had to change his mind.

He can't hand over the team's victory or defeat to such a person, who has been affected by emotions.

After unloading the burden of the trump card, it did make Koichiro Tanba lighter, and his pitching gradually found his own characteristics.

But at the same time, it also made this player lose his responsibility.

He had forgotten that he was a third-grade pitcher, and that he was the only pitcher in the third grade.

"Tomorrow's game, the starting pitcher is ......"

Didn't introduce the opponent first, and then discuss tactics, as usual.

Uncharacteristically, Superintendent Kataoka directly announced tomorrow's starting pitcher.

The players who were originally outside the world quickly retrieved their three souls and seven spirits one by one, and they all looked at Kataoka intently.

After a night of recuperation, the feeling on Zhang Han's arm has returned to its original state.

Although the staying power of his full outburst is slightly lacking. But fortunately, the recovery is good, as long as it is not a continuous game, there is a day of rest in between.

It will not affect his performance in the next day.

So he is also eager to try and want to win a starting spot.

Superintendent Kataoka has always set his eyes on a few pitchers.

The first to react to his words was the team's ace Zhang Han, whose eyes lit up all of a sudden.

He stared at himself intently, the expression on his face eager to try, and it looked like he was about to recommend himself.

I! I!!

It's just that Superintendent Kataoka, who already had an idea in his heart, directly ignored Zhang Han's performance.

He continued to focus on the remaining players.

The second to respond, not the third- and second-year players, but a first-year newcomer.

In yesterday's semifinals, the super-god-level duel between Zhang Han and Cheng Gongming really surprised several first-year players.

Originally, they thought that their pitching was already very good, but after seeing the pitching of these two great gods, they really knew what it means to have mountains outside the mountains and people outside the people.

Regardless of Zhang Han or Cheng Gongming, the performance of the two on the pitcher's hill is at the ruling level.

You must know that they are both giants, and the offensive strength of the two teams is absolutely extraordinary.

But even so, when the players of the two teams faced Zhang Han and Cheng Gongming, the two pitchers, they didn't play much, and they were cleanly solved by the other party.

Heart-to-heart, two first-year rookie pitchers, although very confident in their pitching.

But after seeing such a duel, I couldn't help but mutter.

Can you really stand up to such an opponent?

After thinking about it, they all retreated.

At the time of the competition, Superintendent Kataoka had observed that the two first-year newcomers were obviously intimidated.

I didn't expect that they had just experienced such a fright yesterday, and they would be able to bravely raise their heads and look at themselves tonight.

After a night of psychological battle, they overcame their cowardly selves and had the consciousness to pitch back to the pitcher's mound.

Of the two first-year newcomers, the first to respond was Eijun Sawamura.

It's only a little slower than Zhang Han.

But when it comes to courage and desire to compete, he may be even stronger than Zhang Han, and he is not a little stronger.

After all, a large part of the reason why Zhang Han was able to raise his head and show eagerness to try with Superintendent Kataoka was because he had absolute confidence in his pitching.

A light-speed ball of more than 160 kilometers can make the hitters of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team unable to even parry.

After changing the city's three high schools, Zhang Han didn't think that the situation would change much.

He still has a strong grasp that he can play with the top three players in the city.

So that they don't even have time to react.

It is precisely because he has enough confidence that he is so eager to try the next pitching challenge.

Sawamura Eijun is different.

For the next duel, he is actually not sure of winning, and he is also very nervous.

But even so, even if he wasn't too sure, even if he didn't know if he could do it?

He still held his head high, trying to show his presence as much as he could.

Trying to get Superintendent Kataoka to see him shows that he can also stand on the pitcher's mound and fight for the team.

Comparing his heart to his heart, if Zhang Han is placed in the position of Zecun, Zhang Han may not be able to raise his head without scruples in this situation, and even if he can, he will not raise it so early.

Superintendent Kataoka nodded silently.

Although Sawamura Eijun's approach is very reckless in his opinion, it can even be said to be brainless.

Simply by the slightest impulse, I thought of pitching the ball on the pitcher's mound.

But that's not necessarily a bad thing.

At least he still has the courage to stand up and express his presence.

Unlike some people, they haven't been able to give any reaction until now.

The third person to respond, also in the first grade, Akira Gu.

He thought a little more than Sawamura Eijun, and carefully measured his own strength, although the opponent's strength was strong, he was still confident in his ball speed.

So he also raised his head and expressed his thoughts.

In addition, Kawakami, who is in the second grade, has not been able to respond.

He can't be blamed for that.

The young man has now gradually found his place in the team, and is even ready to be kicked out of the team after the team enters Koshien.

It's a pity though......

But in terms of his previous contributions to the team, he really wasn't much better than the two first-year rookie pitchers.

Even from the perspective of potential and age, it is more cost-effective for the team to train those two first-year newcomers now than to continue to train him.

Kataoka oversees the selection of the team's starting pitcher, and he may pick anyone, but he will never pick him.

With this kind of awareness, it is no wonder that Kawakami keeps his head down.

After all, in his opinion, this had nothing to do with him.

But it is precisely because of his personality and approach that he is easily overlooked when Kataoka oversees the pitcher.

Therefore, learning to show yourself, whether in school or stepping into society in the future, is a very important course.

Koichiro Tanba finally raised his head, he was the last.

In the raised eyes, there was longing and dazedness.

Superintendent Kataoka was very disappointed.

How much he valued Koichiro Tanba before, and now how disappointed he is with Koichiro Tanba.

Even the disappointment is doubled.

"The starting pitcher is Akira Shibuyani, and from the third inning, Sawamura prepares. From the fifth inning, Tamba prepares. If there are no accidents, it's up to you to pitch until the end of the game. ”

Although Tanba disappointed him greatly, Superintendent Kataoka still put a burden on him.

Ever since Manaka was about to be eliminated, his enthusiasm has been hit hard. If he can't be clearly told at this time, what exactly is his responsibility?

This guy doesn't know how much he's going to be depressed yet.

Kataoka, who had already decided to protect Zhang Han, could not allow such a thing to happen.

Sure enough, Tamba, who had been burdened, reappeared with a glimmer of brilliance in his eyes.
