Three up, three down!

Four balls, three up and three down.

Sawamura's pitching doesn't look strong at all, but the content of the pitch makes people shudder.

The rest area of Seido High School.

Rei Takashima was also amazed by Sawamura's performance.

"There was no pitching with a cover, no leg raises. It's just a normal pitch that makes the opponent so embarrassed......"

"Yes, Sawamura-san is really capable."

On the side, Minister Ota was also beating a side drum.

Why did the two of them do this?

This is certainly not without reason.

In the Qingdao High School baseball club, the strong have always been respected. This is the purpose of Qingdao High School, and it is also the principle pursued for so many years.

If it is the autumn of the year, and the teammates of the same team still have a year to get along, there is no problem in promoting the strongest to the first army at this time.

But now it's the summer.

The third grade and these junior contestants have only two or three months to spend together. The next summer competition is the last summer of the third grade.

Of course, these are all secondary, and the most important thing is that Qingdao High School was mainly established in the third grade.

Although the selection of the ace pitcher has been confirmed to be Sawamura, the back number of No. 1 has not yet been finalized. Whether you choose Sawamura or Tanba, it makes sense.

Tamba was chosen mainly to motivate third-year players. If Tanba No. 1 is added, then six or seven of the nine who start may be third-year, which will definitely inspire the fighting spirit of third-year.

Of course, it is not bad to choose Sawamura. It is said that in a team dominated by third-graders, choosing a first-year pitcher as the number one will definitely cause a little emotion among third-year players.

But you can't stand the difference in strength between the two, Tanba and Sawamura are not pitchers at the same level at all.

Choosing Tamba will indeed inspire the sense of honor in the third grade, and choosing Sawamura will also inspire the sense of honor that the strong will be respected.

And it's not just the third grade that's being stimulated, it's all the right to be inspired. I was selected for the main selection, not because I was ranked in the third grade, but because I did have the strength to serve as the main force.

All good!

Multiple choice questions are not true/false, true/false, you can choose true or false, because there is only one correct answer, and you always have a chance to answer correctly.

The multiple-choice questions are different, especially if you choose a choice like the current one, whether you choose Sawamura or Tanba, you are right.

From the standpoint of a bystander, this choice should be more inclined to Sawamura.

But from the perspective of policymakers, it is difficult to say.

Superintendent Kataoka, in addition to the ultimate ideal of entering Koshien and dominating the country. In normal times, they also have their own ideals and ambitions.

His greatest passion is to develop strong hitters and ace pitchers.

Being able to cultivate Sawamura and Akira Shibuyani is a great blessing for Kataoka.

There's a little knot in it.

After all, Tanba is the trump card that Kataoka has cultivated for two years, and when he sees a better one, he abandons the previous one?

This is normal for those supervisors whose main purpose is to achieve results, but when it comes to Kataoka, the instructor, it is a little difficult to make a decision.

The identity of an instructor gives Kataoka a unique charm and guidance style.

But the same identity also limited him.

To put it harshly, Seido High School has not entered Koshien for five consecutive years, which is directly related to Kataoka's current character.

The stadium is like a battlefield!

Especially in baseball, physical and technical training is only one aspect, if there is no mercenary spirit, simply thinking about hard work, it is inevitable to capsize in the gutter.

In this respect, Seido has two rivals in the same district of West Tokyo as Inagi Industrial and Ichidai Sangao.

The superintendents of their two schools are much more cunning than Kataoka.

Of course, people are all wise and wise, and after a few years of training, Superintendent Kataoka must be much more sleek and sophisticated than before.

But there are some things in his nature that he still can't change.

Now, for example, he's going to take more into account what the players think, and even what Tamba himself thinks.

On other overseers, what does he think about you? It's good to win!

Rei Takashima and Ota also knew Kataoka's personality, so they beat the side drum.

If the gap between Tanba and Sawamura is not particularly large, it is actually more appropriate to give Tanba the back number.

But the gap between the two is too big, and Tanbo can't carry it at all!

Moreover, the school dialect is conclusively said, to compete fairly, not to judge seniority, but to carry forward the fine traditions of the school......

Although it was not explicitly stated, the posture of supporting Zecun was extremely obvious.

Rei Takashima also knows that the school is!

It's just that the chances of Sawamura becoming famous in the future are bigger than Tanba's.

But she herself prefers to believe in Sawamura.

It's not just because of Sawamura, it's because she recruited it with all her might.

The most important thing is that she believes that with the strength and experience of Izawa Village, she will inevitably lead Qingdao High School to glory.

Ace, number one!

That piece of clothing is more than just a piece of clothing.

It also represents the recognition of the entire team.

Only by putting on that dress can Sawamura legitimately lead Seido High School forward!

Kataoka glanced at the two of them.

"I've decided on this matter a long time ago!"

Well?

The two looked at Kataoka puzzled.

"Only those who inherit the will of Qingdao High School can wear the back number of Qingdao High School No. 1 and fight for Qingdao."

When Kataoka didn't explain this sentence, Takashima Rei and Ota could still understand a little bit, and when he finished explaining, the two were even more confused.

What does it mean to inherit the will of Seido High School?

Sawamura is full of calculations, how long has it been since he came to Seido High School in total?

It doesn't seem right to say that he inherited the will of Qingdao High School.

That's Tamba.

But Tambo is even more wrong.

Koichiro Tanba's personality is no clearer than the two of them as teachers.

Seido High School's aggressiveness, Tanba Koichiro is afraid that he will not be able to touch it.

Superintendent Kataoka lost his interest in pretending to be profound.

"At the time of the final of the Kanto Conference, I had already decided to hand over the number one to Sawamura. Originally, I was just worried that as a first-year, he might not be able to carry the burden of No. 1. After the final of the Kanto Convention, this concern was gone. ”

"Eijun Sawamura is a natural ace pitcher! I believe that he will carry the back number of Qingdao High School No. 1, and he will take us Qingdao High School further. ”

"But don't tell him about this for the time being. I'd like to find an opportunity to talk to Tamba first. ”
