Tama Gakuen Tama High School,Even their school's own teachers and students rarely refer to themselves by this full name.。 Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 In general, info is abbreviated as Duoxue Gao.

The baseball club has a history of about 40 years. He had never won a major tournament in his country before.

However, it is completely different from the external image of this weak brigade. In fact, most of the main members of the baseball club are from various Little Senior teams in the Nishitokyo area. I have had experience with hard balls since elementary school.

This is because there is a subject called Physical Education Speciality within the High School. Most of the members of the baseball club are students of this subject.

It is different from the sports students of ordinary schools. The purpose of the establishment of the Department of Physical Education is not to obtain better grades at the university level, but to guide students to enter prestigious private universities through sports club activities.

Therefore, the students recruited every year not only do not have preferential treatment, but even the tuition fee is more expensive than that of ordinary subjects.

Most of the students who choose this subject are those who have devoted their time to sports since childhood, but have not been able to achieve outstanding results until they graduate from high school, and it is difficult to get into university by relying on ordinary methods.

As far as the baseball club is concerned, many of the members who joined the club are players who have fallen behind in development or encountered bottlenecks in ball speed and skills.

Such a team can achieve what it is this year. On the one hand, there is the element of luck. On the other hand, it is because Yasuda, the team's supervisor, has found a reasonable policy for building the team.

Defensively, he relied on the second-year left-handed shooter Takao Tiandao and adopted a complete ace tactic. When attacking, we take advantage of the rich game experience and skilled basic skills that the team members have accumulated since childhood. Score points with small tactics and mobility.

In the last two games against strong opponents, they broke through the defense of the famous team in a confrontational situation and finally won.

Judging from these factors, although Duoxue Gao has the name of a dark horse. But in essence, their squad composition is enough to support their current results.

And the Peace Academy, which will face them in the finals, is completely different.

Although there are also a few members of the team who have experience in hard-style youth leagues such as littleSenior in elementary school. However, most of the players in the Peace School were born in the soft baseball club of the school in middle school.

Not to mention that there is also Li Yuan, a novice who only comes into contact with baseball after entering college.

The pitcher aspect is similar to that of the opponent. There is only one ace that can be relied on in the Peace Academy.

Kazuhei Fukushima finished two games in three days. If the finals continue to start, it will be three shots in five days.

No, it's impossible to let Fukushima start again, so you can't keep your fitness going.

"The next one is the final."

On the bus back to school from Jingu Stadium, Akio Yabe took the initiative to break the silence.

"It's the day after tomorrow."

Kazuhei Fukushima, whose right arm was still covered with an ice pack, replied as he looked out of the car window.

"If the opponent is more educated, how about letting me start."

At the time of this conversation, the second game of the semi-finals had not yet been decided. Therefore, Yabe is talking about a hypothetical situation.

"Then what if it's Gongminggao."

Yabe listened to Fukushima's reply, but he didn't know how to answer.

Komeito Taka is also one of the famous families in Nishitokyo. Because the school's educational policy is not only sports clubs, but also more than half of the school's students are boarders from all over the world. There is also more leeway in the selection of materials for the baseball club.

If the opponent in the next game is Komeito, Yabe Akio is not very confident that he can suppress the opponent.

"Well, in the next game, no matter who the opponent is, you will start. However, it is limited to two cents. ”

Kazuhei Fukushima gave the answer by asking himself.

The two-point limit means that if an opponent scores more than two points, the pitcher will be replaced.

Fukushima intends to use this pre-agreed hard indicator to avoid missing the opportunity to switch pitches.

……

Two days later, the finals of the Tokyo tournament for college baseball player Gonnishi were held as scheduled.

The day of the race is a working day. Even though it was the summer vacation, until the opening of the show, the Uchino Grandstand at Jingu could never be called "full".

"I really didn't expect it, the attendance rate of the final is not as good as the last one."

In the warm-up training before the game, Li Yuanrang squatted in the pitching practice area and cooperated with the arrow to carry out warm-up exercises.

"There's no way around it, after all, the top schools have been eliminated."

In fact, after the two semi-finals, some media put forward pessimistic views.

This year's Nishitokyo representative meeting will be between two dark horses, which will certainly make the Koshien game full of freshness. But on the other hand, whoever wins the championship in the end is likely to go home after one round.

And for everyone in the Peace School Baseball Club. From Fukushima onwards, the word "Koshien" became a banned language overnight.

It's a goal that everyone aspires to, but no matter who tries to avoid mentioning it.

Because it is located in the center of the city, although there is also a habit of sounding the alarm before the game. However, the sound of the alarm at the shrine is weak compared to Koshien.

The game started in such a tepid atmosphere.

Akio Yabe stands on the pitcher's hill to meet the attack of Tama Gakuen Tama.

Based on the strategy derived from the previous discussion with Li Yuanrang. The most critical point in each inning is not to allow the opponent's first hitter to get on base.

In the first game, the first hitter in this half game is the outfielder Takehara.

Offensively and defensively, Takehara is a veritable backbone of the team

Lee Wonrang's strategy is to capture strikeouts.

For left-hand hitters, the content is a straight ball in the outside corner, a curved ball, and a straight ball in the outside corner.

The number of balls quickly formed two good and one bad. In the fourth ball, Li Yuanrang directly matched the slider that drilled into the low inside corner.

The arrow will only be the most basic variation, targeting the ball that lacks a change to the outside corner of the left hitter.

And the ball control is not as stable as Fukushima when he is full of energy.

Li Yuan made the glove position in the dead corner of the good ball area.

But the slider went from the edge of the good zone to the sweet spot of the heart.

Faced with this change ball with a speed of less than 110 kilometers, Takehara's swing seemed extremely easy.

The baseball was pulled hard to the right and flew straight into the empty outfield stands, which were not open to spectators.

The first hitter hits a home run.

Before showing the mobility that he was proud of, Duoxue Gao directly took the lead with long play.

It was only a few minutes after the game started, and Li Yuanrang had to call a timeout.

He walked up to the pitcher's mound, and the first to speak was the dejected Yabe.

"Now you know what a great pitcher Fukushima was."

"You mean to make it all the way to the point where my ball is not really of much use?"

"No, that's not what it means. I mean, not everybody can control the ball like Fukushima. ”

Even Issei Fukushima, who changed his pitching pattern after running out of stamina in the last game, rarely threw a missed shot into the middle of the good ball zone.

Li Yuanrang has long been accustomed to such a partner. For a while, I didn't know how to guide a pitcher like Yabe. (To be continued.) )
