Chapter 13 Daily life in the new semester
Daily life in the new semester
In this practice game, catcher Yitang and pitcher Nozawa, but the field personnel changed a lot.

"Although it is a practice game, Coach Ninomiya is still so confident that he has added several players who don't play much." The coach of the Edogawa Little League watched these people calmly and reminded the recorder Take note of how these people behave.

"Kinoshita is the No. [-] player in West Tokyo. As expected, any player is very good. It's scary—" the coach made a tic-tac-toe on his forehead.

"Miyuki Kazuya, if you don't play, you have to wear the team uniform, and you are late."

"Hi—" Miyuki also took out his team uniform and put it on, and replied absent-mindedly, his mind was full of the figure who just threw the ball into the net.

'Such huge information, should I tell the coach, haha, anyway, I'm going to graduate, so let's give some surprises to the juniors who don't obey the discipline, hehe. '

Bat [-] comes in with cheers, first ball almost thinks it's a touch, takes a big step back, turns out to be a slider, [-]nd ball low inside corner straight, third ball low outside corner, scrapes the bat Caused the ground ball to block out.

At the end of the first half, it was Edogawa's turn to defend again.

The shooter this time was Hasegawa and Nakamura, who had a hard time with Miyuki, and because of the pitcher's strong doubts, Miyuki was not able to play the squat catcher in this game.

All youth baseball games end in six innings. In the third inning, Kinoshita lost 1 point, but in the second half they hit the line. After scoring 4 points, the final score of the two teams was 5:1, and Kinoshita won.

After the game, the coaches of the two teams exchanged greetings as usual, because more Little League games are held in the branches, so the teams in the two branches have the habit of playing friendly matches.

"Coach Ninomiya, even if the team is rebuilt, Kinoshita is still very strong."

"where where"

. . . . .

On the contestant's side, Gao Zhiye was about to go to the training room for strength training when he was blocked by a person.

"Takano-kun, right, let's add the mailbox."

"Hey, but I didn't bring my mobile phone." A hand suddenly touched Gao Zhiye's right trouser pocket, because there was no training this afternoon, Gao Zhiye changed back to his sportswear.

"Takano-kun is dishonest, don't you have it with you?"

Opening that hand, Gao Zhiye acted with black lines all over his head: "Hey, I actually brought it, but what do you want to add to my mailbox?"

"Let's communicate and throw the ball."

"It seems that you don't need to worry about it."

"I'm a senior. Also, if you want to pitch, you can always find me. I'm very interested in your ball."

Gao Zhiye said vigilantly and speechlessly: "Senior, even if I want to pitch, I don't seem to need to look for you."

But in the end, Miyuki got Takano's mailbox number and left contentedly.

Gao Zhiye was also called away by the assembly, thinking in a hurry, 'delete him when we get home'.

After the practice match, there was a brief summary. Langzhi played four rounds without making mistakes. Now he is standing in the second row with a happy face, and Gao Zhiye is hiding in the back row.

He now slowly realizes that his team seems to be quite strong.

"School will start tomorrow, everyone pack up your things and go home as soon as possible." Coach Ninomiya urged everyone to go home quickly, "Remember to finish your homework."

"Hi—" Don't mention homework or anything.

Gao Zhiye didn't exercise too much today, and when he got home, he secretly put on his sportswear and wanted to go for a run, but as soon as he opened his door, he saw Langzhi walking up the stairs with a drink from downstairs.

"Hey, why are you going? It's not to give yourself extra training." This kid, taking the coach's words as a feather, was very arrogant.

"I didn't play today, it's still so early, my body is not used to such a small amount of exercise."

"No, the coach said that rest is not only for the muscles, but also for the nerves. Most of the time, the muscles don't work after resting, and the training effect can only be achieved after the nerves are rested." Lang Zhi pushed him back. Moisture stained Takano's clothes, "By the way, a new season of Idol Live is coming out, let's watch it together."

"what."

In Langzhi's room, those colorful posters appeared on the wall again.

"Let's go together, let me tell you..." Lang Zhi looked excited to want what Anli wanted.

"Touch——" Gao Zhiye went back to his room and blocked the people out of the door. He couldn't do anything about running for a while, so he had to practice push-ups and dumbbells at home.

'Too weak, myself, do you want to watch other people's games like this until half a year later? '

Until dinner, Gao Zhiye's mood was not particularly high. Although the pitching had made a breakthrough, he had only accumulated a week of training, which was far from enough. Shen Qing misunderstood the reason for Gao Zhiye's low mood: " You two, the new semester will start tomorrow, have you finished your homework?"

The two nodded obediently, and Shen Qing took advantage of the situation and asked again: "Then Gao Ye, why do you look listless?"

Lang Zhi answered for him: "How can students be happy when they start school? After school starts, they can only practice baseball with all their strength on weekends."

Gao Zhiye also nodded. After school starts, without the intensity of training during the holidays, the current slow progress may become even slower.

"However, I'm very happy, because starting tomorrow, I'll make bento for you." Gao Zhiye and Lang Zhi choked together, covered their mouths and coughed, and raised their necks to drink water.

Gao Zhiye pointed to the dish on the table, which was hanging outside and no one was eating: "Are you going to make this lunch tomorrow?"

"That's right, I made a very thick soup. When I eat it, every piece of rice can be soaked in the broth." Then she turned to look at Mr. Sasaki who shrunk his presence, "Honey, you don't think it's very good Is it an idea?"

"I... think it's very good, but don't you think that the sauce is too much, it's so dark that you can't distinguish the ingredients." Mr. Sasaki said carefully, "Otherwise, it's good, and the future I'll make the main body of the bento, and you can make the side dishes."

"Yeah, I like side dishes with a refreshing taste. If it's an extra meal in the afternoon, I can eat it better with side dishes, Mom." Lang Zhi hurried to the side to blow the wind.

It was rare for Gao Zhiye to take the initiative to persuade.

"What do you think, you don't want me to look like a bento." Shen Qing was helpless.

'Yes, Mr. Sasaki's cooking is still delicious. 'The two children had a tacit understanding for an instant.

So the next morning, it was still Mr. Sasaki who got up to make lunch, Langzhi made coffee, Shen Qing fried eggs for breakfast, and Gao Zhiye went for a morning run.

The new semester seems to be no different from the last semester. Gao Zhiye is sitting by the window, and the classroom is divided into many small groups. The boy at the front desk who talked to Gao Zhiye is said to be injured during the holiday, and it will be late It takes half a month to enroll, how boring.

Takano took out the scoring book, looked at the notes Hayakawa had recorded, and learned how to play the ball.

"Are you from the baseball club?" asked a boy next to him, pointing to the scoreboard.

Gao Zhiye nodded, "What about you?"

"What should I say, I want to be a sports reporter. When it comes to sports, I can't avoid baseball, so I'm also learning about score books recently."

"Oh, um." Gao Zhiye looked at this boy with a killer look, and he didn't want to chat with him any longer. At the same time, he wondered why Japanese boys had such long hair to cover their faces. The size is really pleasing to the eye.

Seeing that Gao Zhiye ignored him, the boy wisely stopped answering the conversation.

This day, the Little League team only had 2 hours of training, from 4 pm to 6 pm. The main content was physical training. The coach seemed to want to squeeze all the players out within 2 hours, and all of them flipped tires and ran back and forth. Afterwards, the infield team still had jumping grids, and the outfield team practiced various sliding catches. On the pitcher's side, after three sets of strength training, Takano was allowed to pitch.

"Hayakawa-kun, I'm going to vote." Gao Zhiye said excitedly.

Hayakawa didn't speak, but under the mask, the shadow on his face seemed to change with his smile.

Ordinary straight ball, the feeling of stabilizing the ball, and then still aim at that position, use the mentality of throwing an ordinary straight ball, only increase the strength of the fingertips, such a straight ball will run half a ball higher, and become a high-speed straight ball.

"NICE BALL" Hayakawa received the ball and responded.

Coach Fujii was thinking beside him. He actually had Takano test it a few days ago. It seems that his accuracy is only related to the position of the glove he aims at in his mind. half a lie, then the ball will float to a higher lie.

And when Coach Fujii wanted him to do more experiments, Takano might lose the feeling of pitching. So after discussion, the coaching staff agreed that Takano should be stabilized now before considering the accuracy experiment. Son.

I originally hoped to get more accurate data from Takano, which can be used to train Sato, but it seems that it needs to be delayed. Now Sato, who is only a freshman, has reached the level of the third grade, but After 60 pitches, the shot will be inaccurate.

"Hey——" Coach Fujii sighed. Although there are many pitchers in the Kinoshita Junior League, everyone has some problems to some extent, but this is also the meaning of the coach's existence.

"Sato-kun, after 60 pitches today, the distance between you and the catcher has been reduced to 10 meters. If you can find the feeling of throwing the ball at 10 meters, then slowly increase the distance back." Coach Fujii can only arrange this .

"Ok."

When we gathered on this day, Coach Ninomiya gave the first army a back number based on everyone's actual combat practice throughout the summer vacation. Now the ACE of the first army is Nozawa-senpai, and Kurishi-senpai is No. 10.

"That's great," Shibazaki murmured, Takano looked at the No. [-] back number, but he didn't feel much. He couldn't even compete now, let alone an official back number.

　The National Day will be over soon, so I can't bear to part with my vacation!

　　After the National Day, there will be two major events, one is the quarterly work report, I have not yet done the PPT, and the other is the qualification exam. I have only read half of one of the four books, and there is always a feeling of imminent disaster. . . .
