Chapter 92: A Hot Opening!

"The finals of the Kanto Tournament, Nishitokyo Qingdo High School's match against Hakuryu College in Gunma County, officially begins!"

Following a sentence from the commentator, after the players on both sides saluted each other, they took their places and prepared for the game. 【Full text reading】

The first attack in this game was Bailong College, and Qingdao High School was responsible for the defense.

Regarding the start of this game, Kataoka has also made some considerations.

Needless to say, Kawakami Kenshi, he is equivalent to being ranked outside the ace competition. Akatsuki Fukugu is a secret weapon, waiting to be developed. These two people are not enough for Kataoka to pin the team's hopes on them.

They won't be given a chance to play in the Kanto final.

Currently, Sawamura and Danbo are the only ones who can really compete for the trump card.

So in the final, Kataoka still made up his mind to let both of them play to feel the atmosphere of playing against the top giants in the country.

The starter is Danbo, and Sawamura still keeps the left field honestly.

In addition to the pitcher battle, the Qingdao catcher battle is now getting more and more intense. The battle for the catcher position is even more brutal than the battle for the pitcher. In a game, following the vote is almost commonplace.

Especially in the hot summer competition, any team targeting Jiaziyuan cannot survive with just one pitcher. The physical strength of the pitcher is already high, and the schedule is dense, and the game of Hajia is very tormenting.

On the field of Koshien, there are not a few pitchers who ruin a player's career because of over-pitching.

This is also one of the places where Jiaziyuan is taboo!

In fact, it is more than Jiaziyuan, everything has positive and negative sides. In general, Jiaziyuan still pinned the dreams of young people and caused a social sensation. Its meaning is so far-reaching that words are indescribable.

You can't stop eating because of choking!

And after entering the new century, most of the giant teams in Jiaziyuan have adopted a multi-pitcher rotation system, and will not put all the burden on the ace alone. Unless it's a dark pony team like that with insufficient foundation, there is no replacement at all, otherwise the ace will not always be on the mound.

For example, like Qing Dao now, keeping Sawamura on the mound is the safest for the team to win or lose. But Kataoka wouldn't do that, even if it would be most beneficial for Aojima to do so. He will still focus on Tamba and Sawamura as the core,

Come play summer games.

The most important purpose of this is to protect Sawamura!

People's hearts are changed by people's hearts. After being reborn, Sawamura never thought about other schools in the past. Why? It is because he has met the best supervisor, the best teammate, and the best school in Qingdao.

Of course, it didn't mean that other schools were bad, but Sawamura didn't know much about those schools. And even if other schools were the same as Qing Dao in all aspects, Sawamura would still choose Qing Dao.

After all, there is still a feeling in it!

The above are all pitchers. In the new era of competitions, follow-up is a very normal thing, and it can even be said to be common sense. Basically, a strong school with enough weight will do this.

But who have you heard or seen, that team will trade their main catcher?

Once the main catcher is identified, it is very difficult to replace.

The catcher is also the coach on the field, and it is conceivable how many responsibilities he has. No matter how simple Kataoka's thoughts are, or how close Chris and Miyuki are in strength.

After all, Qing Dao needs to choose a catcher!

The semi-final was handed over to Chris, and the final was handed over to Miyuki Kataoka. Although Chris came back strong, his performance in all aspects was not inferior to Miyuki. But in Kataoka's heart, at least at this time, Miyuki is still the team's main catcher.

Otherwise, Kataoka would not have handed over the most crucial game of the Kanto Conference to him.

In the first half of the game, White Dragon Academy attacked.

"First shot, shortstop, classmate Shenlu."

The grades of the members of the White Dragon Academy are very neat, with nine players, five third graders, and four second graders. Among them, Shenlu is one of the five third graders.

In the position of the catcher, Miyuki glanced at the way, and all the information about the way of the gods flashed in his mind.

Almost all Bailong members are very fast, and their mobility is second to none in the country.

But even in such a team, Shenlu's speed is one of the best.

Watching Hakuryu's game video, Miyuki's deepest understanding is that once someone from Hakuryu High School hits base, the game will become very troublesome. Considering the speed of Shenlu, he didn't even want to encounter such a situation at the beginning of the game.

"So, let's go all out on the first ball, Tamba-senpai."

The first ball: high drop curve ball.

Seeing the code from Miyuki, Danba subconsciously frowned.

Start with his best change ball?

Even if it was this game, the supervisor arranged for Sawamura to follow the cast, but in Danbo's mind, of course, he still hoped that he could cast the whole game. If the goal is to shoot the whole court, it is best to use only straight balls in the first game! After all, Danbo is not Sawamura, and he doesn't hold as many transformation weapons as Sawamura does!

If you use your own change ball frequently from the beginning, in the second half of the game, Danbo's change ball will definitely be used by the opponent.

At that time, he is likely to be targeted by the opponent!

Even you, don't believe I can finish it?

Danba gave Miyuki a deep look, but didn't say anything. Instead, he nodded slightly, agreeing with Miyuki's ball-matching opinion.

"Whoosh!"

The small white ball flew from Danba's hand to Miyuki's glove.

On the strike zone, Shenlu never left the flying baseball.

Finally, the ball came, and the speed was so fast!

As the current ace pitcher of Qingdo High School, Danbo is remarkable in terms of ball speed and power.

His pitching is amazing!

Just such a ball cannot make the batter of the White Dragon Academy flinch.

Although the speed of the ball is not slow, in Shenlu's view, it is not so fast that people can't hit it.

The moment he saw Danbo throw the ball, he had a hunch that he could hit the ball and hit it beautifully!

coming! It's now! ! !

The small white ball approached his hand, and was about to pass over the top of the plate and into Miyuki's open glove.

At this critical moment, Shenlu on the strike zone decisively swung the bat in his hand out!

The bat whizzed by, and the wind followed.

Although it has always been said that he is a speed-type player, this does not mean that the blow of Shenlu will not work!

In fact, his striking power is also very eye-catching.

It's just that such an excellent blow is doomed to miss.

Before the baseball got close to the batter, it suddenly and rapidly fell!
