19. Practice

"Speaking of which, the first grade is originally a time to practice physical fitness and basic skills." Wang Chuan said

"I see, that's why the coach asked me to practice these at night." Ouyang Dong suddenly realized.

"Not exactly." Cheng Qi said. "He may want you to adapt to our rhythm of life as soon as possible, after all, everyone will take the initiative to practice in the evening."

"Senior, are you here to strengthen your physical fitness? I remember you were in poor physical condition. Wang Chuan said.

Cheng Qi was a little unhappy, but his physical fitness was really not good, and he replied helplessly: "That's right, I don't want to drag the team back because of this." However, you should have a lot of playing opportunities this year. ”

"I think so, after all, ACE is basically your senior. I should be able to handle it later. ”

"You're going to have to hone your guts. It's finally a left-sided shot, so you have to play to your advantage, otherwise if I get off the court and hit a big scene, it's over. ”

"It's not me, don't worry." Ouyang Dong interjected.

Both of them were frightened by Ouyang Dong, and no junior had ever dared to be so arrogant. "Don't just talk about it, you'll have to show real skills when the time comes." Cheng Qi reminded.

"I'll try." Ouyang Dong replied.

……

"Not surprisingly, these three people are the ones who will carry the banner this year." Coach Wu said.

Wang Wengang was a little surprised: "Is Ouyang Dong also counted?" Will Director Wu have too much confidence in him, there are still many pitchers in the third grade, and they have been practicing for a long time. ”

Coach Wu glanced at Wang Wengang, then turned his eyes to the court, looked at the few people in the field, and said to himself: "Talent is really a terrible thing." ”

……

After dinner, Li Can returned to the dormitory and was about to push the door in, but he bumped into the seniors who were planning to practice.

"Oh? Finished eating? ”

"Yes, what are you doing here? Going out with a bat on a big night? Li Yu noticed what they were doing.

"Oh, this one, we're going to practice swinging again, but we're not going to fight."

"Eh, do you still practice at night?"

"Practice, everyone will practice. After all, everyone wants to get their back number and play. Okay, after eating, you can rest and rest, let's go first. ”

Li Can sat on the bed, ready to relieve the fatigue and stress accumulated throughout the day. He stretched hard, feeling unusually comfortable. Then he looked at the empty room and couldn't help but think about today's events. During the whole day of training, the seniors performed much better than them, and the gap was obvious. And people who are already so strong will give themselves extra training and work harder than others.

Li Can himself is also very good, when he was in junior high school, he got the back number in the first grade, followed the team to win the championship of the city, and competed with outstanding players in the country, his self-esteem is very strong. When he came to A High School, he found many guys who were better than him, especially Li Yu and Sun Sheng, who had been pressing them all the time, he was unwilling to be worse than others, especially wanted to be stronger than these two people, so he decisively picked up the bat and walked to the indoor training ground. It was there that the usual strike training was conducted.

Li Can came to the court and found a few familiar faces, it was Li Yu, Sun Sheng, Tan Yong, and Li Jinming, they were too involved in training, and when Li Can came over, he found that Sun Sheng took the initiative to say hello: "Hey, you're here too." We're still betting how long you'll be there after us. ”

Li Can was taken aback: "Have you been here for a long time?" ”

Sun Sheng replied, "When I came, only Li Yu was there, and Tan Yong was the last, probably a few minutes earlier than you. ”

Li Can suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and he still fell one step behind these people. He waved his bat very reluctantly.

……

In Wang Wengang's office, several coaches are gathering to discuss.

Coach Jin said: "Judging from the test results and today's preliminary observations, I think that in addition to Ouyang Dong, who followed Director Wu, there are five people who are very good. Li Yuhe Sun Sheng, who graduated from the High School Affiliated to Normal University, Li Can from G2 Middle School, Tan Yong from No. 1 Middle School in City B, and a child named Li Jinming, but he graduated from an ordinary school and did not have a baseball team. ”

Coach Qian added: "However, other children are not very ideal, and this year's students may be the worst in years." ”

Wang Wengang's face looked very solemn. "G2 won the championship two years ago."

Coach Jin replied: "That's right, Li Can was in the first grade at that time, but he also played on behalf of him several times, and he also started once. Sun Sheng and Li Yu both started to sit firmly in the second year, and then won two championships in a row. ”

"City B No. 1 Middle School also won the championship this year."

"That's right, and Tan Yong's performance is very eye-catching."

Wang Wengang spared his head and fiddled with his hair very messily: "These people have all made achievements, and their vision should be good, but I'm afraid they are too impetuous." I'm going to schedule a match between the first-year and senior students on the 31st. ”

Coach Qian frowned: "I'm afraid this will hit the children's confidence." ”

"There's no way, this year's students are really poor, we have to use some special means, maybe we can provoke them." Wang Wengang said.

Coach Jin and Coach Qian glanced at each other, both of them with helpless faces.

……

After about two hundred swings of the bat, Sun Sheng and Li Yu planned to rest. Sun Sheng opened his mouth and said, "How did Ouyang Dong seduce your soul?" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Yu said with a confused expression.

"Don't pretend, you know what I say, you say those things in the cafeteria, even fools can see it. You know that everyone is prejudiced against him, and we all know it, but only you can help him resolve it, why? ”

Hearing this, several people put down their bats and gathered around, and they also wanted to know the reason. Ouyang Dong is a person who has been too unreasonable these days.

Li Yu said helplessly: "Don't look at me like this." Really, he didn't want those special treatments in the first place, I don't know why he was forced on him, and then he had to be thought so and so by his classmates, and he didn't say anything, do you think that's fair? ”

"It's a little unfair, but he's training better than us." Sun Sheng replied.

"There's always a reason for this, I just want to know what the reason is, I went to the cowshed today, I finally knew, butterfly balls are really rare, I just don't want everyone to exclude him without knowing the truth, I just want to see how far he can go. And I always felt that he was not that simple. ”

Li Can said, "Oh? You're unexpectedly high in your opinion of him. ”

"I'm a catcher, after all."
