Although it was not seeded by the conference. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info But the opponent of the five rounds of the Peace School is not a casual school.。

The Higher Education Department of the Affiliated School of Suginami Agricultural University is referred to as the Affiliated School of Suginami Agricultural University. It is a long-established private school with a history of more than 120 years.

At the time of its founding, the current location of Suginami Ward was a hilly and farmland area with a population of only 10,000 or 20,000. It is now one of the 23 districts with a population of more than 500,000.

Although the word agriculture is still in the name of the school, there are no agricultural courses in college education.

Now it's just an ordinary university-affiliated school.

According to the division of the Tokyo area of high school competitions, Suginami Ward is an urban area, but it is part of the West Tokyo Ward. On average, Nishitokyo is more likely to face tough opponents than Higashitokyo is in the Higashi-Tokyo area.

In the four-round game, Suginon Daifu encountered some trouble, and pitcher Sakamoto Shinichi finished nine innings, with a total of more than 140 goals.

Next, like the School of Peace, they only have one day to rest.

Sakamoto's physical strength will definitely not be able to recover.

Monday, July 18. The five-round match of the Nishi-Tokyo Games was still held at the municipal Tachikawa Stadium.

This time, the Peace Academy attacked first.

Practice before the start of the game, on the pitcher mound, the pitcher of Sugino Daifu is not Shinichi Sakamoto.

"The opponent sent a pitcher who wore the number eight. Not an ace handle? ”

In front of the rest area on this side of the Peace School Park, the team members who lined up to warm up with sticks discussed.

"It seems to be the original four-time hitter Aoi cameo pitcher."

Li Yuanrang studied the information of the opponent's main players before the game. I still have an impression of Aoi wearing the No. 8 jersey.

Aoi is known for his strong shoulders as an outfielder. It's no surprise to have a cameo pitcher.

Most college-level schools don't have much bench depth to speak of. The quadruple batters on the team tend to be the most physically fit type. On the way to growth, I will practice some pitching skills.

That's why there are so many four-time aces in college baseball.

Before the start of the game, captain Kazuhei Fukushima gathered his teammates around him for a final impromptu meeting before the game.

"Today the opponent's ace has not recovered his stamina, and today he played as an outfielder. It is estimated that he will not be on the board until the first shot is knocked out......"

"Shouldn't that be the point of control to avoid the opponent's ace?"

This is a strategy that Li Yuanrang came up with with a pat on the head.

"It should be a large number of points earlier, so that the other party can send the ace up early...... Of course, you have to be able to score a lot of points. ”

"It's not that easy to score, after all, the other party is Koshien's Guhao who has played seven times."

Yabe's statement was echoed by Fukushima.

The so-called Gu Hao, in the field of college baseball, refers to the former giants who have a glorious history in the past and have achieved average results in recent years.

From its inception to 30 years ago, Shannong University has always been a private powerhouse.

At that time, when RB was not so economically developed, more than 70% of the graduates of Suginami Agricultural University could be recommended to enter Suginami Agricultural University, which attracted able-bodied rural children from all over the country.

Relying on these baseball students who are not baseball students. From the 50s to the 80s, he reached Koshien seven times in succession, and the best result was the quarterfinals.

Now, parents who don't know the situation avoid the word agriculture when they see it when their children go to school. The school has also not introduced a sports specialty student system. The baseball club attached to Shannon University is just relying on tradition to continue.

In the first half of the first game, the Peace School attacked first.

On the side stand of the third base opposite, there were hundreds of spectators sitting on the support seats attached to Shannong. However, these people are clearly not active students at their own school. Instead, middle-aged men in their fifties and sixties are the majority.

"Isn't it a working day? How are there so many people. ”

Li Yuanrang, who was lying on the railing of the rest area, asked.

"It's Monday, yes, but it's a day off. The day of the sea. ”

Sea Day is a man-made festival and has no historical reason. But as long as it's a day off, of course, it's always likable.

"It's a pity, it's a holiday."

Of course, Li Yuanrang had no knowledge of this kind of festival before. But now he feels nothing but regret.

I thought I was using my status as a baseball club member to get a day of "public debt", but I just caught up with the holiday.

Most of the middle-aged and elderly men sitting on the support seats at Sugino-dai University are baseball clubs or their families who live in the Tokyo area. At the end of the three-in-a-row break, he came to the stadium to support his alma mater.

During the attack at the Peace Academy, these people did not say a word in accordance with the guidelines for college baseball, but quietly stared at the field.

"It's scary to be silent than to shout."

Li Yuanrang said.

"Because only the attacking side can come to the rescue."

Yabe replied.

As the attacker, the Peace Academy is still only a few dozen supporters present today. Except for the relatives and friends of the players, there are very few students from our school who really cheer for the team. But the audience wasn't completely silent.

A batter Miyagi stepped into the strike zone.

In the stands behind home plate, a middle-aged man in a sleeveless leather jacket with a plane head comb and sweating profusely stood up, his hands on the net in front of the stands and shouted at the field.

"Masamune! Give them some color and voila! ”

Needless to say, this is certainly Miyagi's father.

"He doesn't feel hot when he wears a leather coat in July......"

Li Yuanrang thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it.

Miyagi let go of two bad balls. The third ball hit a strong flat ball between the two games.

Iwashiro, a shortstop attached to Suginon, flew and pounced and confiscated the ball. One out.

"Partisan, are you an animal! This kind of ball can be saved! ”

Miyagi's father, who only had his own son in his eyes, yelled at the venue. But as soon as he turned his face, he saw the spectators on third base staring at him in unison. He immediately shut up and sat back in his seat.

The second batter Masaoka appeared.

Li Yuanrang also picked up the bat and prepared to go to the strike preparation area to swing the bat to find a feeling.

"What do you think the pitcher is so fast?"

Before Li Yuanrang walked out of the rest area, Yabe behind him asked.

"I'm not a speed test, how do I know."

"You can compare other people's pitches. If the average ball speed of Fukushima-senpai was more than 130 kilometers, would this pitcher be faster or slower? ”

"Seems to be faster, maybe three or five kilometers or so?"

Of course, Li Yuanrang is not a speed test, but in addition to dynamic vision, his spatial sense is also first-class. Naturally, it's also quite sensitive to things like speed.

In the strike zone, Masaoka swung an empty bat at an outside corner high ball.

Aragaki, a part-time coach sitting not far behind him, looked down at the speed test in his hand.

The speed is one hundred and thirty-six kilometers per hour. This is not much different from Li Yuanrang's visual inspection.
