Chapter 172: In front of the stage and behind the scenes
Miura, who is a substitute hit, is a second-year student. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoIn the autumn competition, the second year is the highest school year.
Li Yuanrang felt that the reason why Miura had been a substitute for more than a year must be his reason.
Maybe it's because there are no dead holes exposed on the strike, or maybe the garrison can't be on the table.
And since it is a lack of actual combat experience, there will not be too many opportunities to see this level of straight ball thrown by Tokuda Ball.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Yuanrang relaxed a lot.
A simple matching pattern that alternates inside and outside. Although not every ball can be sent into the good ball area, Tokuda's straight ball is powerful after all.
Successfully advanced the ball count to two good and one bad.
If there were fans from the Peace Academy on the sidelines right now, they would be able to stand up together and shout "Last Ball" now.
Unfortunately, it didn't.
Even the third base stand on this side of the rest area of the Peace School Park is sitting in the supporters of Kemingkan University.
"Whoever is on the field, send Hirohashi back to home plate!"
The audience didn't even bother to memorize Miura's name.
Li Yuanrang turned his gaze from the stands back to the field. Then match an outside corner speed ball.
It wasn't a pretty shot, and it even missed a little bit out of the good zone.
Li Yuanrang's original intention was actually just to pave the way for the next goal.
However, the beater Miura was probably pressed too tightly by the spectators in the stands and was in a hurry to swing the bat.
That's the strikeout.
There were no surprises and the game ended in this situation.
Players from both teams salute and then bow to the spectators on the sidelines.
"Come on, Hirohashi! See you next year! ā
Although Keming Pavilion is the losing side today. There are still only such voices coming from the stands.
"In Koshien next spring, Keming Pavilion will definitely have no chance of qualifying, right?"
Li Yuanrang asked Yabe as he exited.
"Of course, after all, I didn't even make it to the top 32."
The selection meeting for Koshien in the spring is by invitation, and theoretically until the organizer announces it, and no one knows which team will be invited.
However, in recent years, the qualification standards in most regions have been fixed.
If a team in the Tokyo area wants to play 100 percent in the spring league, they must win the autumn championship in which all of Tokyo participates.
The runner-up will share a spot with the fifth place finisher in the Kanto tournament, and the general trend is that the Kanto team has a better chance of getting a spot.
However, there is another opportunity to play in Koshien in the spring.
This is the so-called "twenty-first century quota".
Each year, three teams can qualify for the Spring Koshien Tournament through this spot.
However, most of the schools that have obtained 21st century places are prestigious schools that have poor field conditions, insufficient players, or have to take care of both civil and military skills.
Kemingguan University, which is a traditional powerhouse in private baseball, obviously does not meet this requirement.
Since the devastating earthquake of 2011, the 21st Century Quota in the East Japan region has been taking care of the teams in the affected areas almost every year.
The team in the Tokyo area has only been selected once in those years. It was a metropolitan entrance school.
And although it is said that the representative proofreaders of the 21st century quota are very lenient in the requirements for the team's performance. However, there are hard and fast rules.
For example, teams in the Tokyo area must reach the round of 32 to qualify for the selection exam.
There were 64 teams participating in the Autumn Conference, and Keming Hall was eliminated in the first round, and it was not even eligible to participate in the selection examination.
"Speaking of which, let's be considered to be in the top 32 now. Wouldn't that be a chance to get this 21st century quota? ā
Li Yuanrang continued to ask.
"If it was summer, it might be possible, but now ......"
Yabe looked at his teammates behind him.
There are about 14 players in the Peace School Baseball Club now.
Although the number of people is still insufficient, and the number of new recruits is basically purely a number, it has greatly improved compared to the summer.
What's more, the training equipment and supporting facilities of the Peace School are complete. There is simply no way to gain any advantage in such a "miserable" matter as the selection of places in the 21st century.
"Then these spectators in the stands will really only be able to support Guangqiao next summer."
"If they remember Hirohashi next summer......"
Akio Yabe himself is almost a fan of college baseball. I've been following the games in the Tokyo area since I was very young.
From December to February, external practice competitions are prohibited. In addition, the spring Tokyo meeting, which has nothing to do with Koshien's qualification, is often overlooked.
The teams that lost in the fall conference are back in the public eye and will have to wait until next year's summer qualifiers.
At that time, these fan girls may have already discovered their new idols.
What's more, the draft of professional baseball is coming soon, and the end of the autumn conference will continue until next year's professional baseball spring training, and for fans who really care about baseball, the new professional baseball talents who graduated from colleges and universities this year are the focus of attention.
"Speaking of the draft, isn't that the most recent!"
Li Yuanrang suddenly remembered this question.
"Well, it's about half a month."
Yabe replied.
"And it seems that Fukushima-senpai didn't hand in the job stick letter in the end."
Two teams have made it clear that they want to name Fukushima in the draft, but neither has been able to make a commitment to be named in the draft.
Therefore, Fukushima himself had already announced in advance that he would go to university. His college application process seems to be going well.
In general, there is a lack of high-profile newcomers in college football this year, and the main axis of the draft should be dominated by college players.
ā¦ā¦
On the whole, the schedule of the autumn festival is relatively relaxed. The matches leading up to the semi-finals have almost a week to recuperate.
Even if the game was postponed due to rain, it was still three or four days.
After defeating Katsumeikan High School, President Morimoto sent a lot of condolences. But it's basically snacks and drinks.
For Principal Morimoto, the next game is one thing, and this one against Katsumeikan must not be lost.
But he didn't expect that although the result of the game was the victory of the Peace Academy, the Keming Hall had a full sense of existence in terms of publicity strategy.
The official first round of the Autumn Tokyo Games was filmed in front of and behind the scenes by the famous TV show "Passion Continent" and made into a documentary featuring pitcher Hirohashi.
Hirohashi, who only lost one point in the game and made many bases, was portrayed as a tragic hero. If Keming Hall wins this game, I'm afraid this episode of the show may not be able to be edited so dramatically.
"Nishizawa, this guy!"
Nishizawa is the name of the president of Katsumeikan High School, and he has always been the head of Principal Morimoto of Peace School Park in the evaluation of the industry.
While the TV program was broadcasting, Morimoto held the remote control but was reluctant to change the channel.
He knew that all of this was the result of the prior deployment and operation of Principal Nishizawa of the Keming Pavilion.
October is the time when many students decide where to go to school.
And this time, Keming Pavilion once again has the advantage.
