Chapter 50: The Unexpected

"Huh~~"

Seeing the players of the Tenryuji Middle School baseball team on the field, the audience let out a huge boo. In particular, the brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood booed the most.

You said that Akagi also saved his strength, but the ace pitcher is still on the field, and he can go up to the pitcher's mound at any time to save the scene. The players sent out are also the main force.

In short, in the eyes of the brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood, it was reasonable and appropriate for Akagi Middle School to do this. The most important thing is that Akagi Junior High School showed respect for the final in Nagano Prefecture.

As for why Sawamura didn't stand on the pitcher's mound in the first place? This is likely to be the arrangement of Akagi Middle School, and it is not uncommon for Akagi Middle School to do so in previous competitions.

On the contrary, if you look at Tianlongsi Middle School, they have already played with substitutes! As the signboard of Nagano Prefecture, the strongest team in Nagano Prefecture now, do you still want to be ashamed? Do you have any respect for this final?

Inexplicably, the brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood felt the strong malice of Tianlong Temple. If you really want them to say, they can't actually say four, five or six, but they just have this feeling, feeling that Tianlong Temple is in Yin Chicheng. That's why they booed the Tianlong Temple like this.

This bit of boos naturally can't have any impact on the old man in the mountains and fields whose skin is thicker than the city wall.

But in Tianlong Temple, there are not only old men in the mountains.

Nanami Yao looked at his coach with a blue face, and said almost word by word: "Teach!" Train! ”

The old fox in the mountains and fields didn't raise his eyelids: "Sit down!" ”

"Hey!"

Almost subconsciously, Nanami Haruka agreed, and sat down obediently.

The assistant coach next to him knew that his task was coming, and at this time he had to help these little guys do ideological work. Otherwise, this fire is suffocating, and it is not certain that something will happen. The younger the players on the field, the more susceptible to emotional influences, if because of this incident, the young players of Tianlongji Middle School will be depressed. That day the Dragon Temple really outweighed the loss!

"Xiao Yao, this is your last year of middle school! This is also the strongest year of our Tenryu Temple! Mr. Yamano has high hopes for you. ”

The assistant coach first gave Nanami Haruka a sweet date, and waited for Nanami Haruka to calm down before continuing.

"The national competition is a long process. Every decision he makes is well thought out. I know you're not convinced, but I think you should understand it too. Akagi Junior High School is strong! It's not an easy opponent to beat, and I think you know that better than everybody. Yes, we are not afraid of them. But there is no need to shake out all the hole cards that have been thought of for a final that has nothing to do with the overall situation. You know, even if we win this game, we will probably meet them at the Kanto Conference or the national tournament in the future. When all our hole cards are used up, what can we do to attack Zecun? Last night, Mr. Yamano and I discussed until midnight. We know that it is very difficult to make this decision, but in order to let everyone go far, for the sake of the honor of Tenryuji, there are some things we must know how to choose. ”

These words obviously spoke to Nanami Haruka's heart. Faintly, there were tears flashing in his eyes.

"Daddy, he really didn't sleep until twelve o'clock?"

The assistant coach was stunned for a moment, but still nodded.

The conscience of heaven and earth, it is not easy for him to talk nonsense.

"Such an old man, what can he do with young people?"

……

Under the persuasion of the assistant coach of Tianlongsi Middle School, all the main forces of Tianlongsi Middle School calmed down. Thirteen or fourteen-year-old young people, say that they are not big, they say that they are not small, but they already know almost everything they should know!

They all understand the truth, but they can't pass the level in their own hearts. Now the assistant coach calmly presents the facts and reasoning with them. They quickly accepted the decision and stopped arguing about playing.

On the other side of the pitch, Sawamura is also doing ideological work for Komaki who is about to play.

It's no problem for you to let Komaki deal with other teams, but let him challenge the king of Nagano Prefecture from the same background, Komaki is still a little nervous. It's okay to just take Tianlongsi Middle School to train before, so even if you lose, it won't cause any psychological pressure on Xiao Mu.

Originally, Akagi Middle School gave up the competition for the championship.

But now it's different, now that Sawamura wants to win, Komaki can't lose points indefinitely. Komaki used to be a substitute pitcher for Nagano Metropolitan Less, and his strength was very good. With his background, even if he challenges a player who is a year or two older than him, he has nothing to fear. But the problem is that these substitutes for Tenryuji Middle School are not just two years older than Komaki. They are also the main force or substitute of each young club. With their strength and talent, plus they are a full two years older than Komaki. It's no wonder that Komaki is a little timid!

"Don't worry, I'll take your place if the situation isn't good. All you have to do is stabilize the situation and show all your strength. In this half year, you have made great progress. The previous matches proved that too, didn't they? Five innings, as long as you don't let the other side outweigh us by two points within five innings. I'm going to keep you on the pitcher's mound. If you go over two points, I'll replace you, do you understand? ”

"Understood!"

For people who are confused, all kinds of encouragement are not necessarily good. You give him a clear task and then tell him your backup plan, which will motivate him even more.

Komaki is like this, and his blood is boiling when he is fooled by Sawamura.

"Finally, and most importantly, you have to trust these wild hands behind you. It's a bit of a boast to say that, but in fact, we're a team with me at the core. These guys behind you may have their own shortcomings and shortcomings, but if you talk about guarding, they are definitely very reliable! ”

As he spoke, Sawamura glanced at these friends behind him. The friends looked at Sawamura excitedly one by one. At this moment, their hearts and momentum were connected.

It's game on!

With Komaki's ball power and ball speed, it is still very difficult to solve the hitter of Tenryuji. At this time, the little friends in charge of guarding Akagi Middle School broke out collectively. They used their bodies, will, and skills to block the baseball, and defused the attacks of Tenryu Temple again and again.

By the end of the third inning, Akagi Middle School didn't even drop a hit.

Not only is the defense strong, but the line is also in full bloom, and by the end of the third inning, Akagi Middle School has played six hits and scored three points!
