"Negative six points, out!"

Although he was very interested in Matsumoto, when it came to the duel, Sawamura did not show mercy to his subordinates.

In the first half of the sixth inning, Matsumoto hit the rolling ball, made up six points, and was eliminated.

With him out, the last catcher finally came on.

When the young man came on the field, it was a bit of a taste of everyone looking for her thousands of times, but the person was in the middle of the mountain fire.

Everyone was looking forward to his performance, but unexpectedly, the young man made a mistake in receiving the ball after coming on the court, and it was soon enough to score six points.

In the second half of the sixth inning, the game could not continue.

The score was fixed at 25:0.

After Komaki came on the court, he conceded a total of seven points, but also solved six hitters. Without the cooperation of the catcher, his performance was not bad. As a pitcher to replace Sawamura, he barely qualified.

"Now I announce the qualified players, Komaki and Park Chun......"

Sawamura announced six spots, then looked at everyone and added, "I know that many of you came to Akagi for the baseball team. It's not fair to brush you off just by taking us through one test. We are not God, and naturally we are not qualified to decide your life and death. But the truth is that you need eighteen men for a team and we've done our best. You can't let these veterans who have worked hard for the team for a year make sacrifices for you. Well, if you're willing, we'll have a split two months before the start of the summer competition, and you'll be free to challenge the six first-year students who have already been selected. As long as you win, then you make an exchange. On top of that, we don't add any new people unless someone voluntarily quits. ”

"Do you understand?"

"Understood!"

Sawamura's words are very thorough. Although the concept of the Second Army was not put forward, everyone has automatically put themselves in the position of the Second Army.

The six newcomers of the first army stayed behind to train together. Other partners who were not selected were disbanded on the spot.

"If you want to follow along, it's not impossible, you can run along with a morning workout or use a baseball field. However, it must not affect the official training of the baseball team. ”

The conditions given by Sawamura are very good, and people who really like baseball will not care about these restrictions. Some people who come to join in the fun and pursue fame are also quitting. They like it when they join the baseball team, and they don't like it when they work as sparring partners and caddies for the baseball team.

Sawamura doesn't care about these.

He just gave a step for those who weren't chosen, to quit on their own. In this way, they have grievances against themselves, not the baseball team.

It's not that we haven't given a way out, and if you don't stick to it, it's no wonder that others are okay.

"Isn't that kid okay?"

After the unchosen people left, Feng Xiang asked Oda and Yamaguchi to direct the training of the new team members. Then he himself came to Sawamura's side and asked.

For his successor, Feng Xiang has a knot. To be honest, he really didn't stay enough with his friends in Sawamura and Akagi. He also wanted to see what kind of demeanor Sawamura would have when he reached the third grade. Let's see if they can really stir things up.

At full play, there are only three months left before the start of the summer competition.

Feng Xiang felt more and more that time was running out.

On the one hand, he rejects someone to replace him and partner with Sawamura. On the other hand, as Sawamura's confidant and big brother, he hopes that after he leaves, someone will be able to catch Sawamura's ball.

Matsumoto's boy, don't say anything else. The technique of catching the ball should be very solid.

Sawamura was noncommittal.

Catcher, it's not that you just have the ability to catch the ball.

As a commander on the field, the catcher has many responsibilities, observing the situation, dispatching the guard, and dealing with the hitters......

Not to mention tactics, even personal skills must be excellent. Catching, passing, containing, stabbing, each one requires practice.

There is a saying in high school that it takes at least two years to train a qualified catcher.

This is just qualified, an excellent catcher can't even be cultivated by training alone, which also requires the catcher himself to have talent.

Matsumoto has shown exceptional talent in catching the ball, but that doesn't mean he's a good catcher.

Of course, this kind of thing also depends on the person he is partnering with.

For Sawamura, Matsumoto is really a good partner. Looking at his talent, after familiarity and honing, it should be no problem to catch the ball from Sawamura. And what makes Sawamura different from all pitchers is that he just needs a catcher who can catch his ball.

As long as the catcher can catch Sawamura's ball, Sawamura can unlock more balls, and even his pitching stance can be changed......

Sawamura is now partnered with Feng Xiang, and the ball he throws is not all of Sawamura's ball. If nothing else, the change ball of Sawamura's straight ball system is definitely not just a floating straight ball and an ordinary straight ball.

There is an essential difference between soft and hard balls. Therefore, many of Sawamura's original ball paths cannot be used, so they can only be re-studied. But wasting two or three years to learn some ways that were useless to him, and Sawamura was unwilling.

You must know that even if you play hard balls in the future, it doesn't mean that all the change balls in Sawamura's previous life can be copied, he still needs the same kind of practice.

The size of the palm, the strength of the hand, the power of the ball, and the speed of the ball are different, and the natural changes in the ball are also different.

Sawamura started regular practice three years earlier than in his previous life. His body, palms, strength and ball speed are bound to be different from those in his previous life. Therefore, he has to practice all the ball again to master it.

Of course, with the experience of his previous life, the speed at which he learned and mastered it must be much faster than in his previous life.

There are non-universal variation balls, and naturally there are some universal ones. Whether it's a soft ball or a hard ball, you can use a change ball.

For example, it's like Sawamura's Naoball's change ball and speed ball.

Previously, Sawamura had used a speed ball. But in addition to the speed ball, there are actually quite a few other changes to the straight ball system, such as Sawamura's Quirk Ball.

Quirk balls, like speed balls, are common to soft and hard balls, and it is completely possible to start practicing in advance.

To sum up, for Sawamura, recruit Matsumoto into the team. It's good for him and for the Akagi baseball team.

But even so, Sawamura still unceremoniously eliminated him.

"We set the rules, and we have to follow them. And that guy has only played baseball three times in total, and no one knows if he's a three-minute hot. We can't force others because of ourselves. ”

In his heart, Sawamura is also extremely proud.

"Besides, if he really liked baseball, he wouldn't give up so easily."
