At noon on Sunday, there was still some time before the practice competition, and Li Yuanrang came to the school in advance, planning to do some adaptive exercises by himself first. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Walking into the court, Li Yuanrang found that captain Fukushima had arrived earlier and was busy placing something in the rest area on the side of the third base.

"What is this?"

Li Yuanrang asked after approaching.

"No Smoking Signs......"

Fukushima has acrylic signs on three walls of the rest area and even on the backs of the benches in the rest area.

Because most of the students in colleges and universities are minors, it is natural that students are prohibited from smoking. Li Yuanrang thought about it carefully, and he really hadn't seen teachers smoke in school.

However, the signs placed in the rest area today are clearly not aimed at teachers and students in the school.

"If you don't put this on it, I guess when you attack, many people waiting in the rest area will light up their cigarettes and smoke them."

Fukushima explained.

Today's match is against an amateur team from a nearby shopping street. The vast majority of the members are adults over the age of 20 who can smoke. It is not uncommon for such teams to play against teams of the same level, not to mention on the bench in the rest area, or to stand in the strike zone with a cigarette in their mouth.

……

Ten minutes before the start of the game, the team members of the 4-chome shopping street came to the stadium one after another. He was wearing a variety of jerseys of various colors.

"When it's time to play, change to unity?"

Li Yuanrang, who was already wearing a full set of catcher equipment, asked Akio Yabe beside him.

"No, they wear it for friendly matches or something, and they don't wear their jerseys until they play official matches."

The team was originally formed for the fun of baseball, and the members always like to practice and play in the jerseys of the professional baseball teams they support.

Not only the domestic teams, but also a few people wore the jerseys of the major league teams.

And the so-called official matches that require the uniform to be worn are actually not a few in a year.

The baseball team of the 4-chome shopping street will not participate in the city confrontation or the qualifiers for the Japanese players. The official competitions that we participate in every year are actually some amateur cups in the Tokyo area.

……

After setting up their equipment, the players in the shopping street are ready to warm up before the game. The figure of one of the team members aroused the interest of everyone in the rest area of the Peace School Park.

"The one in the blue and white striped jersey...... It's a woman, right? ”

It was a girl about sixteen-five tall with short ear-length hair. He looks like he is in his mids and twenties, and has healthy sun-colored skin. The body is well-proportioned and the facial features are also considered delicate among the women in the sports department.

However, judging by the visible muscle lines of her upper limbs, she is also a hard-trained player.

"This kind of amateur team also has managers?"

"Managers don't need to warm up, do they?"

"THE NAME ON THE JERSEY IS 'ARAKAKI'? Yes! Come to think of it, I seem to have seen her on some online news before......"

The female player who was noticed by everyone at the Peace School Park is named Kazusa Aragaki. I just graduated from high school this spring and am now less than nineteen years old. Usually I am a clerk at a nearby Lawson convenience store.

When he was a student, he dreamed of becoming a professional baseball player, so he was admitted to a prestigious baseball school in the prefecture. Although he is called a team manager, he has been training to the same standard as his male classmates.

In her junior year of high school, she also submitted a professional baseball volunteer form. However, it is not surprising that he was not selected by any professional baseball team.

The experience up to this point has been reported by a number of media outlets. Therefore, some players on the side of the Peace School who often pay attention to sports news, such as Akio Yabe, actually know a little about this opponent.

Because of his grades, he did not choose to continue his studies after graduating from Saudi University. I am currently working part-time in Tokyo and participating in amateur competitions.

College baseball games prohibit female players from participating in the tournament due to safety concerns. But there are no similar regulations in the field of social people and universities.

Washa's hope for the future is to participate in the draft again as a social player and become a professional player.

But to make that happen, at least it has to be of interest to professional baseball scouts. In a team like the 4-chome shopping street, it seems to be a little difficult.

The competition has officially begun.

For the first time, Li Yuanrang wore catcher armor and squatted at home base. And Akio Yabe also climbed the pitcher's mound for the first time since he entered high school.

In addition to the two of them, there is also one player who is also making his debut in this game.

Recorder Takoki, who was eager to try when the pitcher was vacant, was scheduled to start as a right fielder. And the captain Ichihei Fukushima, who finished nine games yesterday, sat on the bench in the rest area.

In the first half of the game, the first stick sent by the shopping street was Aragaki and Sha, which had just attracted everyone's attention.

Because I've always fantasized about being able to become a professional baseball player. After analyzing the various possibilities, Kazusha chose for himself to position himself as a handsome and well-guarded role player.

The guard position is a second baseman who needs to be flexible. And in terms of running the bases. After a high school science training, she can now run under 6.8 seconds in the 50-meter run.

In an amateur team like the shopping street, where many members are over 30 years old, Washa is a rare speed player. Therefore, it is only natural that he was selected as the first blazer.

Akio Yabe on the pitcher's mound did not dare to take the opponent in front of him lightly. Compared to the rest of the opposing team, Aragaki and Sa maintained a more systematic training. And since I practiced with male players in college, I think I also have the average strength of the average college team.

Yabe knew that with his current level of pitching, it would be a bit difficult to suppress the team on the high school average.

As soon as Aragaki and Sa stood in the strike zone, they assumed a striking pose. The infielders at the Peace School also moved forward to defend themselves and prepare to prevent their opponents from lightly clicking on an infield hit.

But the moment Yabe's first ball was actually thrown. Kazusha immediately withdrew the bat and switched to swinging.

Baseball was pushed in the direction of the three-game room. Hit a hit behind an overly advancing shortstopper. And Sha didn't need to sprint, and stood on the first base safely.

Before the next opponent starts to strike. Li Yuanrang stood up and looked at the audience on the sidelines.

It's different from yesterday's buzz when hundreds of people poured into the stadium. There were only twenty or thirty people watching today's game.

Most of these people are family members of the street crews. It seems that a few of them are children who are cheering for their fathers.

A middle-aged man holding a DV camera caught Li Yuanrang's attention. This is the professional baseball scout Mita that Yabe pointed out to him yesterday.

If we say that yesterday's game had a few players who had a total of Kai to look at.

So who is Mita coming to see in today's game?

Li Yuanrang turned his head to look at the rest area, where Fukushima Issei was sitting. According to the pre-match plan, Fukushima will not play today whether it is pitching or batting.

Obviously, Mita is not coming for Fukushima today......
