Chapter 5: Preparation (Subscription Requested)

The fierce climb to the top of the pitch for the next two weeks was the main theme of Qingdao High School.

During this period of time, even the limelight of the main force of the First Army was not as good as that of the Second Army.

Practice the game, red and white against ......

After a fierce fight, three people stood out.

And after Sawamura was interviewed, he returned to his daily training.

For him, the daily training is extremely busy, and he really has no leisure to pay attention to the fighting of the second army. Despite Kominato Haruichi, Kanemaru is his friend.

But everyone just gathers together during dinner, and the rest of the time is still busy with their own work. The training rhythm of the first team is mainly to familiarize themselves with the current lineup, as well as to do special training for the two teams.

After Sawamura joined, Superintendent Kataoka's heart was completely confident.

Now he's not afraid of anyone!

No matter who he fights, he thinks that the final winner must be his disciples.

Of course, strategically you have to defy your opponent, but you can't tactically.

The other teams are too different from the level of Qingdao High School, as long as the players of Qingdao High School can play their level normally, and then the intelligence work is in place, then it will not be difficult to defeat them.

Judging from the information Kataoka himself has, there is no dark horse team that can pose a threat to Seido High School in Nishitokyo now.

This kind of dark horse team is a team that has not been a giant in the past two years, but because of the addition of excellent players.

It's a pity that there has not been such a dark horse team in the past two years, so Kataoka can completely ignore the raid situation of the dark horse team.

Of course, this is not to say that Qingdao High School can already sit back and wait and enter Koshien.

As a famous fierce battle zone in the country, the baseball team of Nishitokyo High School is not only a giant family of Seido High School.

Qingdao also has two rivals.

These two rivals are not fuel-efficient lamps. One is called Daocheng Industry, and the other is the third high school of the city.

The trump card of Daocheng Industry is one of the 12 heavenly kings in the past, Narumiya Ming, who fought with Sawamura.

From Sawamura's own point of view, it was also a big thorn.

There is such a thorn as the trump card, plus a luxurious line, and an ironclad garrison......

Even with Sawamura, a strong newcomer, there is no certainty that Seido High School will win.

Especially in the past two years, Inamori Industry is still the strongest team in Nishitokyo!

As far as Kataoka himself is concerned, with the current strength of Qingdao High School, it is only a slight advantage to fight with Inagi Industry.

On the baseball field, such a small strength advantage is definitely not enough. In order to defeat the opponent, they also need to study the opponent's information and come up with tactics.

Therefore, the current Daocheng is the first imaginary enemy of Qingdao High School.

In the face of such a strong opponent, you wait until the game is close to study the tactics, is it absolutely too late? You have to prepare in advance.

Therefore, during this period of time in Qingdao High School, while doing normal exercises, I used Daocheng as an imaginary enemy to do targeted exercises.

Of course, during this time, the people of Inamori Industry were not idle, and they must have taken Qingdao High School as an imaginary enemy and did special exercises.

It is common for wealthy families to be wary of each other and test and investigate each other.

On the one hand, they have to beware of these teams, which are also giants, and on the other hand, they have to deal with those dark horse teams that may suddenly appear.

It's not easy.

In addition to Daocheng Industry, Qingdao High School also has a sworn enemy, that is, the third high school of the city university.

Needless to say, just look at the name.

The three schools of Daocheng Industry, the three high schools of the city university, and Seido High School are known as the three giants of West Tokyo.

Tsinghua University and Peking University do not have much conflict with each other, just because of their fame, they still don't like each other.

Not to mention people like them!

In the same area, there are three wealthy families, but there is only one place in Koshien.

What do you say is their relationship?

This means that you can't use this small axe to cut people directly, if you can do this, the three families will already fight.

This is the mortal enemy!

The trump card of the third highest school in the city is Manaka, who led the team to the quarterfinals in the just-concluded spring league.

Their line, how to say.

Compared with Qingdao High School, it will not be a little worse than Qingdao High School.

Can the strength of such a team be inferior?

Compared with them, Qingdao High School is also not sure of victory. There may be a slight advantage in strength, but this advantage is simply not equal to nothing on the rapidly changing court.

Daocheng Industry, the third high school of the city university, is the same as the White Dragon Academy that competed with Qingdao High School before.

They are all the top luxury high schools in the country!

If Seido High School wants to make it to Summer Koshien, it must deal with these two opponents.

This kind of opponent doesn't mean that after you encounter it, you will think of countermeasures and come in time.

With some preparation in advance, there are only good and no harm.

For example, simulating the ball speed of Nari Narinomiya, the fastest speed of his straight ball is 148 kilometers. At the very least, you have to make sure that your players can get used to this kind of ball speed.

Otherwise, when it's time to really get to the game, get used to it......

That's a joke.

Of course, this kind of targeted training is only one part of the whole training. Most of the time, everyone still practiced various offensive exercises and various defensive exercises.

Sawamura then develops his knuckle ball!

The speed at which he changes the ball is really amazing.

If you change to another pitcher and start from scratch with a new variation, it will take at least a few months before you can use it in practice.

And Sawamura has only been practicing the knuckle ball as much as he wants for just over a week.

The coaching staff of Seido High School, including Kataoka, were surprised by this situation.

A week is a kind of change ball, and if Sawamura is allowed to lift the ban, won't he be able to practice seven or eight kinds before the summer tournament starts?

It's exciting to think about!

This kind of imagination was pinched out by Kataoka without hesitation.

Too many variations of the ball, although ideal. But Kataoka is more focused on changing the quality of the ball!

Besides, having learned too many variations of the ball, there is also a hidden concern.

That's ball control!

There are many pitchers who change the ball in colorful ways, and there are many who get stuck in the quagmire of ball control.

Because of the constant changes in fingers and ball holding posture, the mastery of finger strength is very demanding.

The slightest mistake in the pool is likely to make the pitcher unable to find his touch.

"The most important thing now is to let Sawamura practice straight balls well. It was only after the straight ball was deeply embedded in his bone marrow that his change ball was able to stabilize. Even if you change the ball and get stuck in possession, you can rely on a straight ball to get back into shape. ”

For Sawamura, Kataoka is full of expectations.

And as a qualified instructor, he will not sacrifice Sawamura's future path because of his immediate interests.
