"I only have one day off to deal with TV interviews. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info are a waste of energy. ”

As soon as Yabe, the head of the Peace Academy, returned to the practice range from the reporter, he began to complain to his teammates.

"You're going to be in professional baseball in the future. It's not every day that you have to face this. ”

Li Yuanrang recently searched some information websites about college baseball. Akio Yabe's name has already appeared on it.

You can see Yabe's style of play as well as the stats at a glance.

There are 37,800 teams from all over Japan participating in the Koshien qualifiers, with tens of thousands of players. Among them, there are only a few dozen players who can be detailed by such websites each school year.

Although Yabe currently only has a B+ rating among these amateurs. But if the current momentum continues, it will depend on the improvement of the team's performance. It is not impossible that Yabe, as the main pitcher and main general, will be looked upon by professional baseball teams.

As for Li Yuan's self-esteem, his evaluation on this kind of website has long been A-level. As long as it continues to develop steadily, there will definitely be candidates for the draft. What remains to be fought for now is nothing more than the question of the named rounds.

"If it's a professional baseball player who can be stared at by reporters every day. The salary will definitely not be low. Let's trouble for the sake of salary. And ......"

Yabe turned his head to look at the man wearing the TV station logo T-shirt and continuing to interview Yagi's supervisor on the sidelines. Apparently the kind of journalist who doesn't show up on camera at all.

"And when the time comes, the reporter will become a young female anchor!"

The most common gossip targets of professional baseball stars tend to be female anchors on TV stations. There are also quite a few female anchors who are married to professional baseball players.

It's not because professional baseball players have a collective preference for the profession of female anchor. It's just that these are the women who are most likely to intersect in life.

Baseball has a slightly lower physical exertion than basketball or football. The Pro League has games almost every day.

Every year from March to November. The focus of life of a star player with a main position is entirely on the field. All that is left for private life is fragmented time.

Even if you have the heart to contact the opposite sex, it is only easier to contact anchor reporters who take the initiative to come to the door to interview.

Don't say it's a star-level pro.

College students who have a solid position in the baseball club have no private life to speak of when it comes to game season.

Li Yuanrang didn't know what the winter and summer vacations were for more than a year. The large consecutive holidays of other holidays are also spent on the driving range.

The only women I usually have access to are a few managers of the team.

But the position of managers in the team is also changing.

Because of the presence of Coach Aragaki, several of the female managers who joined the department when the new students entered the department this spring have some experience in baseball.

There are even people who openly say that they entered the baseball club to hone their skills.

In addition, Takano Ren is also discussing the issue of allowing female managers to enter the competition field to assist in pre-match practice.

Now on the training ground of the Peace Academy, the managers are wearing jerseys.

The main role has also become a support trainer.

……

Of course, the TV reporter came to the Peace School for the semi-finals of the Nishi-Tokyo Games, which will be held the next day.

However, the footage he filmed on the training ground may not be broadcast until after the game.

"What did you say when you were interviewed by the reporter just now?"

The afternoon training has come to an end in order to prepare for tomorrow's game. The main players are mainly resting and adjusting in the evening.

Li Yuanrang asked Yabe beside him while packing up the training equipment at hand.

"Answer casually, most of the content won't be broadcast anyway."

"So sure?"

"You don't want to have a bunch of tidbits of our training in the special after tomorrow's game, do you?"

College baseball is played in a single-elimination format. The TV station will continue to collect interview materials. Unless it's the final, though. The previous post-match feature will only leave a lot of space for the losing side.

Video footage about the winning side will be kept until they are eliminated or won't be used after they win the championship.

It stands to reason that the general caucuses are not covered by the national media.

But the Tokyo area is different, except for the fierce competition. Tokyo is also a place where major media outlets are concentrated.

So the next game is not just about the local media in Tokyo. The results of victory and defeat can be seen all over the country.

……

In the semi-finals of the West Tokyo Games, the match between the Peace School and Fuso was ranked second. Half past twelve at noon.

But in fact, the first show held at 10 o'clock was not much better.

"If you win, you'll be beaten by Gongming. It's not weak. ”

"At least weaker than the opponent in this one, right?"

"Not necessarily, you look at the score."

Yabe points to the large screen in the stadium.

At the start of the warm-up session, the record of the previous game remained on the scoreboard. Komeito University ended the game early in the eighth game. Defeated Hayata, the champion of last year's autumn tournament.

The semi-finals of the Summer Games qualifiers are the last matches of the summer that can be finished early with a large lead. If the final and Koshien matches end early, it will only depend on the weather. No matter how big the score difference between the two teams is, they have to play the whole game.

To be able to win in advance against a strong team in a stage of the semi-finals, Gongminggao's strength is obviously not to be underestimated.

As for the opponent on the side of the Peace Academy, Fuso is third. Li Yuanrang never expected an easy victory.

The two teams played each other last year.

It's different from the Peace Academy, which basically retains last year's lineup. The starting list for Fuso's third place is very different from last year.

Four of the starting nine are sophomores and two are first-graders.

The player who impressed Lee Won Rang in last year's game now has only one pitcher, Kuwabara.

Shinjiro Kuwabara is already a third-grader this year. Wearing the No. 1 jersey, he served as the starting pitcher today.

"But I heard that Kuwabara is not a trump card this year, and No. 1 is just an honorary number."

Before the game, Tagu, the data officer, confirmed the opponent's information with his teammates one by one in the rest area.

Kuwabara has not pitched more than three innings in a single game this year. It's certainly not the team's trump card.

But if you really want to say who the third ace of Fuso is, it is difficult to have a fixed answer.

For most of this year's games, the team has used pitcher wheel warfare tactics.

It's not uncommon to put in three or four pitchers in a game.

"If it's a wheel battle, the pitchers have a decent physical reserve."

Li Yuanrang looked into the arena.

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

Kuwabara's first throw was a straight ball.

The ball speed is more than one hundred and forty-five kilometers.

Tokuda, the first batter at the Peace Academy, swung the bat, but missed the baseball.
