"Aren't we all lined up for practice this weekend? If I go to see their joint team, I won't be able to play? ”

Compared to the reconnaissance mission arranged by captain Fukushima, Li Yuanrang wanted to play more. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"There are new people in the team and you always have to give them a chance to try their skills on the pitch."

"Didn't the two of them make up the numbers?"

After saying this, Li Yuanrang felt that it was wrong. Theoretically, he was also a member of the department who came to make up the numbers in the first place.

"Tokuda is very interested, and he has the foundation of guerrilla defense......"

In baseball, the center of the infield guard is second base and guerrilla, which has always been the weak link of the Peace Academy.

Tokuda said that he had served as a guerrilla when he was a child, and from his training performance, he was indeed flexible.

The other one, Donald Hirata, has not been able to communicate smoothly with his teammates. However, the batting practice in the face of the ball machine can also be seen as an "experienced" who has been exposed to baseball.

The only regret is that neither of them has experience as pitchers. For the time being, pitching can only rely on Fukushima Ichihei.

As a last resort, Akio Yabe can stand on the pitcher's mound. But at this time, Li Yuanrang, who has little experience in squatting and catching, can only serve as the catcher.

In addition to taking care of the training enthusiasm of the two new players, of course. Fukushima Ichihei has other considerations as well.

Now the Peace School Baseball Club,Although the staff and strength have increased a lot compared to when the school started.。 But there is still no bargaining chip against the strong team.

If you want to win, you still have to use some strategies.

For example, Li Yuanrang is a secret weapon that opponents are not familiar with.

Although it was previously hyped up by the program of Dongdu TV as a genius cannon. But the average coach of a famous baseball club understands what the TV show effect is all about. They will be more confident in the information they have gathered from their intelligence networks.

Judging by the statistics of the last few practice matches alone. The coaches of the teams that will play against the Peace Academy may be interested in Li Yuanrang.

But if they go to the video website and search for the video clips of Li Yuanrang's blow. All I got was some poses, out of shape, barely swinging the bat, and then lucky to hit a hit.

It is not difficult to draw a conclusion from these videos.

"It's just a baseball rookie with a lot of luck."

In fact, the "enthusiastic person" who uploaded these videos was Tian Guwu, the IT director of the baseball club of the Peace School Park.

In his personal page on the video website, there are not only clips of Li Yuanrang's blows. There are also things such as Issei Fukushima throwing a missed slider, and the opponent plays a double kill. Akio Yabe, who made a temporary cameo pitch, threw an oversized oversized pitch, only to be narrowly blocked when the opponent pounced on home plate.

This is a strategy to deal with adversary reconnaissance in the Internet age of information explosion.

Arranging for Li Yuanrang to go to other teams' practice matches and serve as a scouting key player is another strategy.

In the average college baseball club, the people who are responsible for this kind of thing are the bench players. Schools with a large number of people are even looking for players from the second and third armies who can't get the number to complete these tasks.

Although this smoke grenade may not be of much use.

Fukushima still hopes to create the illusion that Lee is not important to his future opponents.

……

On the day of the practice competition. Li Yuanrang first came to the department of the baseball club of the Peace School Park to get the reconnaissance equipment that was distributed to him.

In order to disguise his identity, he did not wear a school uniform, but a short-sleeved T-shirt printed with comic book characters, and a mask by the way.

"Let's wear the baseball team uniform."

Seeing Li Yuanrang's dress, captain Fukushima said.

"If you wear a team uniform, won't you reveal the identity of the detective?"

"The purpose of sending you there is half to scout, half to put pressure on your opponents. It's better to go in a jersey! ”

Fukushima used this casual reason to persuade Lee Wonrang to change into a team uniform. Then stuffed a handbag in his hand.

"Just sit behind home plate at the same angle as the TV broadcast."

Before leaving, Fukushima explained.

……

The three school teams will play at the Riverside Park Baseball Stadium next to the Tama River.

The reason for choosing this place is that none of the four participating schools have a standard playing field.

Although baseball has an extremely high popularity in RB. But not every school has such conditions as the School of Peace.

This is especially true in the Tokyo area, where land is at a premium. With the exception of a few well-equipped private schools, most school baseball teams share playgrounds with other sports clubs.

A sandy clearing with no turf and a square area of 80 or 90 meters can be both a baseball field and a football field, depending on the line drawn.

You can also practice athletics, rugby, and other sports.

Regular matches can be played on this kind of field.

But the most important summer tournament qualifiers of the year are coming. Most teams will still choose to borrow a regular pitch with a stadium size that meets the requirements of the tournament and has turf and a fixed pitcher's mound for a few practice games.

And these courses that can be borrowed are often located in remote locations.

Li Yuanrang just wore a team uniform and sat on the tram for seven or eight stops under the attention of passers-by, and then walked for more than ten minutes before coming to the competition site.

It is a medium-sized course built 40 years ago with outdated equipment.

There are about two or three thousand seats in the inner field stands. There is no shelter in the auditorium.

The audience was thirty or fifty people. Li Yuanrang easily found a position with a good angle and sat down.

He opened the bag that Fukushima had given him. Inside are the tools used for today's reconnaissance.

A DV for a camera and a hand-held speed gun. There is also a tripod for setting up DV.

It stands to reason that you should also carry a record book with you to scout your opponent's game. But Li Yuanrang hasn't learned to fill in this kind of thing yet.

Ichihei Fukushima's arrangement is that today's information collection is entirely based on DV recording.

For this kind of joint team, the statistics on the data do not show too many clues. It is enough to use the video to understand the skill level and characteristics of the opposing player.

The weather was nice on the day of the race, which was a bit too good by June standards.

The scorching sunlight was shining directly overhead. Before the kick-off, Li Yuanrang was already sweating profusely.

"You should shave your head in the summer."

For a moment, Li Yuanrang's mind flashed the idea of shaving the owner's head.

It was July when the meeting was held in earnest and August when Koshien was held. Maybe it's just going to get hotter.

In this kind of weather, it is the players on the field who work harder than the spectators in the stands.

The high summer heat is the enemy of underrepresented schools like the Peace Academy.

Almost every year in the summer qualifiers, there will be teams who cannot continue the game because of heat stroke on the field, and have to abstain and admit defeat.

Li Yuanrang in the stands looked around, and almost everyone in the star-studded audience had a parasol.

Li Yuanrang looked at his handbag. There's an umbrella in there, too. But it was a clear plastic umbrella......
