On the 31st, it was the last day of summer vacation for ordinary children, and for these baseballs standing on the playground, they had been training for half a month in this hot summer, and these first-grade imps had to experience the first game of high school before they started their high school study life.

On the playground, the first and upper graders lined up two teams in front of home plate, and four coaches stood behind home plate, who were referees today.

"The roster was announced yesterday, we don't care how you play in today's game, you can discuss all the skills and tactics yourself, I want to see how much you can do." Wang Wengang said.

After the two sides saluted, they each went to the rest area, the rest area of the senior class was slightly crowded because there were too many people, and some guys who were not qualified to play warmed up and trained on the sidelines.

Before the opening, the pitcher can throw a few balls as a warm-up, these balls are very valuable for the pitcher, because there is no one in the hitting zone, they can adjust the feel at will, and it is especially important before the start of the first inning, some pitchers belong to the slow heating type, and need to slowly enter the state, and the trial shooting of these few balls is more important for them. Cheng Qi also has a lot of experience in the game, and he has worked hard to adjust his form.

"Poof!" With a crisp sound of the ball flying into the glove, the trial shot ended. Zhang Sheng lifted his mask, walked to the pitcher's mound, and covered his mouth with his gloves, although Cheng Qi didn't need to speak for the first time, he immediately blocked his mouth with gloves.

"Today's opponent is a first-year junior, and his combat power is not very strong, so you don't have to worry too much. I'll give you the ball with strikeouts, so you can show off your strength. ”

"Yes."

Zhang Sheng ran back to the back of home plate and looked at Cheng Qi, who was moving: Don't blame me.

……

The night before, Wang Wengang called him to the office.

"Cheng Qi's ball, in terms of quality, is enough to serve as an ace, but his physical strength is too poor, he has been playing as a substitute pitcher last year, the problem of physical strength is not very serious, this year if he is the main pitcher, physical strength is a serious problem. Tomorrow's game, you have to find a way to get more knockouts in the form of strikeouts. On the one hand, getting more strikeouts can boost his confidence, and then it can convince others of his strength. In addition, to get strikeouts, the number of balls will naturally increase, and his weakness of lack of physical strength will be exposed, so that he can really experience this. Wang Wengang explained to him like this.

Li Can, the first baton of the first grade, walked up, and Zhang Sheng hammered the glove of his right hand with his left hand and squatted down. Li Can came to the strike zone, slightly lifted his hat as a salute, and assumed a posture ready to hit the ball.

Li Can's inner thoughts are very simple: I don't know the strength of this pitcher at all, as the first baseman, I can't simply get out, I have to let him shoot a few shots to see where his strength goes. In addition, according to what Ouyang said, his physical strength seems to be very poor, so I can't get out of the game easily, I have to find a way to consume his physical strength and beat him down as soon as possible. Let's wait and see for the first goal for the time being.

Zhang Sheng looked at Li Can, who was about to strike, and his mind began to think quickly: I don't know what his state is, I don't know the beating habits of this guy who came up to strike, plus the coach's requirements, let's take a look at the four-seam speedball with a low ball first. Thinking so, he gave a code.

Cheng Qi on the pitcher's mound nodded slightly, signaled that he had received the code, and then threw the ball.

Li Can didn't plan to swing the bat, he had to observe this ball carefully.

"Poof!" The ball flew into the glove and was a good shot. Zhang Sheng passed the ball back.

The beater and catcher thought again.

The third-grade senior's pitching is really very imposing.,The ball speed just now is probably close to 140.,The ball pressure is still very low.,It's a powerful pitcher I've never encountered before.,I guess there's no way to attack him.,This blow will use the cut style of play to waste his ball count.。

The ball speed and ball path are very good, it seems that today's hand is not bad, since it is a pitch for the purpose of strikeouts, and grabbed a good number of balls, then rest assured to throw a bad ball to lure him to shoot, throw this ball into the inside corner, so that the newcomer can experience it. Zhang Sheng gave the code again, Cheng Qi nodded, and made a slight adjustment to throw the ball.

Inside corner kick, the ball speed is very fast, but this ball probably can't go into the good ball area, so let's let it go. Li Can watched the ball again.

"This kid really adjusts his positioning. I didn't shoot at will when I made the first shot, and I didn't mean to swing the stick with either ball, and I was very entangled in my heart compared to the casting. Li Yuxiang said as if he was talking to himself. In fact, he said it to Ouyang Dong beside him, and he wanted Ouyang Dong to know more about the psychology of the game with the beater.

However, the situation is slightly different from what he said, if it is an ordinary game, Zhang Sheng's thoughts must be the same as him, but this time the opponent is a junior who is not good at all, he just thinks that this is not suitable for the intensity of high school. So he asked for four stitches in a good zone again.

The ball was thrown again, and Li Can suddenly made a shot, and the ball went through the guard area of first and second base to the right field, and a hit was played.

Cut, there really is a set. I can hit it.

Li Can stood on first base, handed over the protective gear to his teammates, and turned his eyes to Tan Yong who was on the next bat: Hmph, don't think that I really can't hit, although the ball speed is fast, I can still find a way to get it, and then it's up to you, I want to see if you really have a bit of a background or only talk big.

Li Can's hit was somewhat unexpected, and Zhang Sheng called a timeout to go to the pitcher's hill to communicate with Cheng Qi.

"I'm sorry, I was a little careless, let him play, you don't have to blame yourself too much, then I will add a change ball, and teach the junior a good lesson."

"This person's ball is very fast, it is really not easy for Li Can to seize the opportunity, I probably don't have the strength to defeat him head-on, but since you are on base, I will send you to the last base."

The first ball of the duel with Tan Yong, Zhang Sheng asked for a straight ball outside the good ball area, which was intended as a interference, but Tan Yong suddenly shot, and his short hit made the ball fall accurately near the sideline, although he was out, but he also successfully said that Li Can sent to second base, and there was a scoring opportunity in the first inning, but unfortunately Li Jinming failed to grasp this opportunity, Zhang Sheng and Cheng Qi learned a lesson, flexibly used the slide ball to strike him, and got the second out, and it was the turn of Ding Lei of the fourth stick at this time.
