Chapter 82: Tokyo Quarterfinals

The invitation of the emir, Qingdao High School attaches great importance to it.

Just as Sawamura Eijun had guessed before, Superintendent Kataoka had no right to make a decision on this matter, and he reacted directly to the school's leadership.

It is not difficult to see from the attitude of Superintendent Kataoka that he is also supportive of this matter.

Although it took a trip to the Americas, it took quite a while. But Qingdao High School has a week's dormitory before the summer competition.

This co-location can be arranged in the Americas!

Allowing the players to compete with the masters there can improve the players' horizons on the one hand, and on the other hand, they can also discover their weaknesses.

A good thing is certainly a good thing.

It's just that there are two problems here, the first is money.

Money is not a panacea in the world, but it is impossible without it. Tokyo has direct flights to the Americas, and a ticket costs almost 1,000 yuan.

It's not the yen, it's the dollar!

When converted into Japanese yen, it's about 100,000.

Even if you go with the coach and the players, there are almost 30 people.

Plus room and board as well as venue ......

Mom, the cost of the whole week, including the round-trip travel expenses, is tens of millions.

This is not a small expense, even if it is a giant like the baseball club of Qingdao High School, it is not easy to let this money go down the drain.

In addition to money, there is another aspect.

That's people.

Seido High School is a baseball giant. Supervisor Kataoka can make his own decisions about practice and competitions, but it is related to such cross-border practice competitions.

It's not up to Superintendent Kataoka to decide alone.

Not even the chubby headmaster.

The headmaster's own attitude towards this matter does not matter. On the contrary, the dean of students did not think it was necessary.

With the current strength of their Qingdao High School, even if they don't play this practice game, they should have a chance to win the national championship.

In that case, why do you have to go on an expedition?

But Supervisor Kataoka's face was there, and this matter was conveyed by Sawamura Eijun. Both of these people are great contributors to Seido High School's domination of the country.

Their face, the school leadership also has to be concerned.

After some hesitation, the proposal was submitted to the Board.

The rest of the matter is not something that Kataoka and Sawamura Eijun can decide.

And they don't have the heart to pay attention to these now, but have their eyes on the next spring competition.

Reaching the quarterfinals is a natural result for Seido High School. Although there have been many twists and turns in the process, in the face of the incomparably strong strength of King Qingdao High School, this little twist and turn is nothing.

The rest of the game was relatively not so easy.

Those who can reach the quarterfinals in Tokyo, one counts as one, and they are all very powerful. These eight teams will fight each other to determine the final four.

The semi-finals will be followed by the semi-finals to determine the combination of the final......

Reaching the finals is basically a goal for a giant school.

As mentioned above, for the wealthy universities, their goals to participate in the Tokyo Spring Competition are actually nothing more than those two.

The most important thing is the seeding, which is to reach the round of 16. For the vast majority of the wealthy universities in Tokyo, this is their priority.

Tokyo is one of the hottest areas in the country. In such a fierce battle zone, the group group is particularly important. If you are really unlucky, and you encounter strong enemies in a row, it is not impossible for the wealthy to capsize in the gutter.

In fact, even King Qingdao High School has suffered losses in this regard. If it wasn't for the continuous encounter with Teto, Uhisa Mori ......

In the end, they didn't necessarily lose to Inagi Industry in the fall competition.

I can't figure out the undefeated legend of Qingdao High School, and it will continue.

In addition to this priority, if luck is not too unlucky, conditions allow. Of course, they don't mind continuing to win and make it all the way to the final.

Only the teams that reach the finals of the Tokyo Spring Tournament will be eligible for the upcoming Kanto Games. Although the Kanto Games are local tournaments, they are not national-level tournaments. But the influence is still very strong, both in professional baseball and in the entire Kanto region.

All have a lot of influence.

If they are able to participate, the team in Tokyo will still want to be able to perform at the Kanto Games.

As for the champion of the spring competition.

This is probably the least valued honor of all the big teams. If you have to find a suitable word to describe it, it is probably equivalent to chicken ribs.

It's a pity to discard it.

According to the media, in addition to Qingdao High School and other dark horse schools that may appear.

No giant team will be obsessed with this honor.

Needless to say, the dark horse team, for them who have no results, any championship is precious, and winning a championship in a fierce zone like Tokyo can even make them blow for a lifetime.

Qingdao High School, on the other hand, was affected by fame.

As the most powerful team in the entire Tokyo area and even in the country, it is the undefeated king.

Qingdao is simply unwilling to accept his failure.

In addition to Seido High School, the other seven games were also won and lost.

"What did you just say?"

Boom asked the assistant coach beside him casually.

The assistant coach had just made a phone call and immediately whispered something in his ear.

The cheering on the pitch was so noisy that he didn't hear the whispers in his ears clearly.

The assistant coach looked around and finally spoke out loud.

"Inside Hachioji Stadium, Seido High School has already won!"

For this result, Thunder Zang's performance was not at all surprising.

If Qingdao High School loses now, then he feels a little interesting.

As for saying that Qingdao High School won.

Isn't that a matter of course?

Although the exchange students at Wenjing University do have two brushes, how long have they been working with the new team? The overall coordination is definitely not good, not to mention that the lineup is still uneven......

Such a team can play with momentum at the beginning, otherwise, once it falls into a protracted battle.

Then the fun will be great.

"What's the score?"

Sanada, who was sitting behind the thunderbolt, was not as amused as his own superintendent, and asked very seriously.

The assistant coach hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke.

The score was 7:0, and the ace Sawamura Eijun threw the whole game, and the game was valid for seven innings. Didn't drop a single hitter or let anyone get on base ...... the whole time. Three hits hit three times to hit the ball, two home runs, and a three-point ......"

Not to mention anything else, Sawamura Eijun's record alone is enough to blind everyone's eyes.

Sanada shook his head with emotion.

"It's worthy of the Great Demon King!"

Although he is a whole grade higher than Sawamura Eijun, Sanada can only admire Sawamura Eijun's strength.

"You don't have to envy others there, no matter how strong the other party is, they are flesh and blood. And as long as it is flesh and blood, there must be weaknesses. ”

Thunder Hide looked unimpressed.

Just looking at his performance like this, it may make people feel that he is full of confidence.

But Sanada knew it very well.

His own overseer was not as confident as he had shown. Secretly, he had already rummaged through Sawamura's pitching videos, but he didn't find the loophole in Sawamura's pitching.

Wait until the next day Mishima when they ask.

The overseer patted his chest with confidence and said very unashamedly.

"There is no weakness, which is the biggest weakness of Eijun Sawamura."

This is not much different from putting carbon dioxide, and it has no nutritional value at all.

"It's going to win!"

After talking big, Bang Lei Zang finally looked at the strike zone.

Standing there now is none other than his precious son, Thunder City.

Sawamura Eijun's weakness in pitching, he really didn't find. This is simply an incredible thing, even if he was a pitcher in the major leagues, he could say a few strategies somewhat, but now in the face of a high school student, he can't even think of a strategy at all.

What a failure.

Now he can only pin all his hopes on his precious son.

You can, Thunder City!

I will definitely be able to hit the pitch of Sawamura.

"Quack, quack!!"

With a shrill shrill laugh, Thunder City waved the bat in his hand majestically.

"Ping!"

After the white ball was knocked out, it flew like a falling meteor into the stands in the outfield.

"The third! In today's game, the Thunder City students hit their third home run......"

The narrator's voice was already hoarse, as if otherwise, he would not be able to calm his inner excitement at all.

To be honest, Sawamura Eijun's game is certainly good-looking, and everyone is looking forward to seeing him win strikeouts and crush his opponent.

But the spectacle of the game in Thunder City is also not bad.

Look at his imposing swing of the bat, and the posture of hitting the ball cleanly.

It's also fascinating.

This is the super monster that became famous in the spring Koshien before.

Hit the Thunder City!

On the other side, Qingdao's other opponent was not as satisfied as the pharmacist.

This opponent is the third high school of the city university.

In the play-offs of the Autumn Tournament, Qingdao High School had competed with them for the qualification of the Spring League.

That game was also different.

In particular, the new trump card Tianjiu Guangsheng found by the third high school of the city university gave Qingdao High School a great surprise.

Tianjiu's performance on the pitcher's mound, if it wasn't for the restraint of Sawamura Eijun, may have been completely crazy.

That's also one of the top pitchers in the country.

Today, the pitcher is in a bitter battle.

It seems that he can't find the rhythm of his pitching all of a sudden, and he throws several four bad shots in a row.

So much so that at the beginning, he conceded several points to the team.

The third high school of the city university is about to capsize from the gutter.

"Ping!"

It was at this time that the line began to take the initiative to stand up.

Hoshida took the lead in launching a strong attack. With a clean swing of the bat, he hit the ball out beautifully.

The white ball flew all the way and ended up landing at the back of the field.

Syllable......
