Yukiichi also went down to the first floor through the elevator and went to the open space behind the hotel to join the morning training team.

Exercising, eating, and sorting out the belongings they brought with them, the time soon came to 8:50, and everyone was already gathering in the lobby on the first floor with their luggage and ball bags.

Takashima led everyone to the parking lot, today's itinerary is busy, and it is estimated that they will be tired when they come back in the evening.

At 9:10 a.m., Qingdao Road's school bus drove into Kendai Takasaki's campus as scheduled.

After greeting each other, Superintendent Kataoka and Kendai Takasaki exchanged rosters, with Takuya Kimura starting on the Seido side, Koichiro Tanba and Yagami as substitutes, Kentaro Matsuda as catcher, Naoya Kuroza as right fielder and seventh, and Tetsuya Yuuki as first baseman and sixth.

"What's it like to be an outfielder?"

Because Qingdao attacked first, Yagami Yaichi sat down next to Kuroza Naoya, who had not yet come on the field, and asked him.

"It feels okay." Kuroza Naoya replied simply.

He and Miyukichi may be almost the same in terms of ball matching, but in terms of guiding others as the commander of the team and even the soul, he is still inferior to Miyuki! After all, he has spent most of his time recuperating since he was injured at last year's Kanto Conference, unlike Yukiichi Mikoichi who was able to compete before the end of last summer; After retiring, the daily training will definitely not be interrupted, and in such a situation, Miyuichi will naturally be able to perform better than himself.

In this way, Yu Yuichi naturally has more opportunities to catch than himself, but because his striking ability is better than Yu Yuichi, the number of times he plays and strikes as an outfielder is naturally not comparable to Yu Yuichi, and it can be regarded as a give-and-take.

……

In this practice match between Kimichi and Kendai Takasaki, the final score was fixed at 1:2, and Seichi won the practice match, Takuya Kimura appeared as the starting pitcher, and Koichiro Tanba appeared as the relay pitcher in the sixth inning until the whole game.

So far, out of the six games that the Seido Baseball Club has gone on an expedition, the current result is to win three games and lose two, leaving only the practice match with Kiryu Osaka not to be played.

At 15:30 in the afternoon, the practice match between Qingdao and Osaka Kiryu will officially begin, and the captains of both sides will decide to move first, and Qingdao will attack later.

After the Kiyochi and Osaka Kiryu players saluted each other, Yagami walked up to the pitcher's mound to begin pre-game preparations. Yukiichi was also standing next to him, and was about to say something, but Yagami was the first to speak: "Shall we try to finish sealing each other?" ”

"Ahh Yu Yuichi could only give up what he originally wanted to say, raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a bit of annoyance: "The senior's tone is really big. ”

"If you don't try it, how do you know it won't work?" Yagami turned the baseball in his left hand, "This is the team with the best strings in the country." ”

"In this case, I may ask for some tricky balls, Senior Yagami, can you shoot them?" Yukiichi also said as he covered his mouth with a ball cover.

"It's not a problem, just feel free to ask for the ball." Yagami patted Yukikazuya on the shoulder, then pushed him again, telling him to leave the pitcher's mound and return to home plate.

Yukiichi also walked back to the back of home plate and squatted down, thumped the ball sleeve with his hand, and then placed it in the position he wanted, and compared his code to Yagami Yagami on the pitcher's mound.

"Whew!"

"Bang!"

The sound of baseballs speeding from the pitcher's mound rushing into the catcher's sleeve was clear and loud.

“Nice pitch.“

Yukiichi also got up and took out the baseball from the ball sleeve and waved his arm to Yagami senpai.

In this way, the two of them passed the ball to each other to warm up, and at the same time, a scout from Osaka took out a speed gun and measured the speed of the ball with a few fast straight balls thrown at Yagami Yagama.

"The ball speed is between 140~145km/h, so it seems that there should be reservations."

After all, Seido is the semi-finals of Koshien this spring, and Yagami Ya, as the main battle pitcher of Seido, still knows a little about him.

Yagami and Mikoi only briefly warmed up, and the referee signaled for the game to begin.

Shotsugu Yamaguchi, a batter from Kiryu, walked up to the hitting area, waved the metal bat in his hand, and then swung the bat vigorously with the sound of the air defense siren.
