I have to say that for the sake of these pitchers at Seido High School, Superintendent Kataoka really took great pains.

Take this match with Musashi High School as an example, Superintendent Kataoka made completely different arrangements for the four people.

First of all, the first one is Tsukiya Xiao, when he played yesterday, he was a blockbuster!

Relying on that incomparable horror pitching, he has won a reputation that is not inferior to Sawamura Eijun. At this time, Descending Gu Xiao can be used as a deterrent-level weapon, and there is no need to continue to show his face. Instead, putting him in the rest area can cause more psychological pressure on the opponent.

When the two teams were playing, the opponent always thought that in the rest area of Qingdao, there was a pitcher who was not inferior to Sawamura.

The feeling in their hearts, as you can imagine, is definitely not much better.

Of course, this is only one aspect, on the other hand, the loopholes of Akira Tsukiya itself are too big, and the more competitions, the more such loopholes will be exposed. It could have been used as a secret weapon, but once someone catches a flaw, it is likely to become a live target.

All things considered, it is much more cost-effective to put Xiaogu in the rest area at this time than to let him play.

And for Gu Xiao himself, he has just entered school, and it may not be a good thing to accept the blow. The environment in which Xiao was in before made him not have much experience in baseball at all. Taking advantage of this opportunity to bring him back to the furnace is a good thing for Qingdao High School and for himself.

I believe that when Xiaogu wants to stand on the pitcher mound again, his strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds.

As for now, the audience has expectations for Xiaoya that are not inferior to Sawamura. The problem is that Akira Tsukitani is not inferior to Sawamura's strength. If the expectation is not proportional to the strength, then it will become an extremely heavy pressure......

Can Xiaogu withstand such a big pressure?

Supervisor Kataoka was not clear about this either.

However, as a guide, it is better to prevent problems before they happen, and it is very beneficial to hide Xiaoxue at this time for the time being.

After talking about Gu Xiao, it is also very interesting to talk about the arrangements of the other three people.

Koichiro Tanba is the starting pitcher, and he is also the current ace, so there is no problem with him starting out. And Kawakami plays the role of a relay pitcher, whether it is this Kanto Convention or the subsequent summer tournament, Kawakami is an important relay force, can share the pressure for the ace pitcher.

Finally, there is Sawamura Eijun, and at this time Kataoka no longer thinks about how to hide Sawamura's existence. Now that others have already found out, hiding it yourself will cause others to be more suspicious.

Rather than that, it's better to put Sawamura out openly.

After all, Sawamura's pitching is not experienced from the striking zone, and you can't feel how powerful he is.

Although Koichiro Tanba is the ace starter, after only three games, Kataoka can replace him without hesitation. From this point, it is not difficult to see that in the mind of Kataoka Inspector today, Tanba is not an indispensable existence.

The real trump card will never leave the court when the game is not really clear.

For example, Sawamura, even if he is not standing on the pitcher's mound, he must be in a position where he can return to the pitcher's mound at any time.

A reporter once predicted that the current Qingdao High School. Even if Sawamura didn't wear the No. 1 back number for various reasons in the end, he was still the real trump card of Qingdao High School.

Judging from the fact that Kataoka never let Sawamura go, the reporter's prediction was really correct.

Sawamura is already the actual trump card of Seido High School!

It's just that it's hard to say whether he can win the No. 1 bib number and serve as a justifiable trump card.

After all, Tambo is a third-year ace pitcher, and his No. 1 jersey has a special meaning for Qingdao.

This is what Chris and Yuyuki think of as the trump card battle, which has officially begun.

It stands to reason that as long as Tambo doesn't make any big mistakes, he will have no problem winning the ace back. Tanba, who has been honing at Seido High School for more than two years, is more representative of Seido's position than Sawamura, who has just joined Seido.

As for Sawamura, although everyone has recognized his pitching, it is difficult to say whether his pitching can represent Aomichi.

The semi-finals begin.

Qingdao High School is the first to attack.

Kurachi, Kominato, Yusei, Sawamura, and the four of them cooperated continuously and helped the team score two points in the first game, but it was just these two points.

The bottom half of the first inning.

With Chris's help, Dambo performed very well, and although he was hit with a hit, he managed to get three outs and end the first game.

In the second game, Seido High School scored two hits, but failed to score on the line.

Musashi High School showed good garrison skills.

In the second half of the second inning, when Qingdao High School was guarding, Tanbo dropped a hit again, but under the strong guidance of Chris, he quickly found his form and won three outs!

Tamba's form today is actually not very good, and if it weren't for the help of Chris and the defender, it would have been difficult for Tambo not to lose points.

In the first half of the third inning, Seido High School attacked.

Once out, get on base.

Formed a base, and it was Sawamura's turn to strike, and Sawamura was escorted.

After that Masuko was solved.

Two outs, one or two bases, and that's when it's Chris's turn to strike.

Chris hit a hit to help Seongdo score another point.

The aggregate score is 3:0!

In the bottom half of the third inning, Musashi High School attacked.

Tanba finally came strong, taking one strikeout and two out, leaving Musashi Middle School three up and three down.

In the final statistics, Tamba's hits were 0, the number of pitches was 37, the hits were 2, and the points conceded were 0.

When the state is not outstanding, with this achievement, it can be regarded as being able to account for the past.

In the first half of the fourth inning, Qingdao High School attacked.

Failed to score!

In the second half of the fourth inning, the pitcher of Seido High School was replaced by Kawakami.

This is the first time Kawakami has partnered with Chris.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

After Kawakami pitched, he heard a nice voice coming from Chris's gloves.

The sound was very pleasant, and it made him feel like he was pitching, and it worked well.

"I'm in good shape today!"

With this feeling, Kawakami's pitching became more relaxed, not only controlling the ball, the ball speed was good, and even a few changing balls were thrown very sharply.

In the bottom half of the fourth inning, he first struck Musashi's third batter with possession.

Then he was hit by a fourth batter.

Next, rely on the fishing ball to make the fifth stick fly high.

Then repeat the old trick of the sixth bat, and let him hit the infield to roll the earth.

Three outs, offense and defense exchanged.

By the fourth game, Qingdao still did not lose points.

In the first half of the next five innings, Seido High School attacked, and it was Seido High School's turn to play the second line of the upper line, the demon Ryosuke Kominato.
