Ace of Diamonds Golden Boots Silver Rod

Chapter 98 Everything has just begun

“Outstanding Little League players are recommended to enter school, and we directly invite Little League players to play games on both sides!

Tokugawa has always maintained his strength through these methods. "

After hearing Xiao Sano's message, everyone fell silent. Chicheng and everyone were no longer the ignorant novices they were before.

They have seen the training of the top Little League Wildcats before. Little League is a professional baseball team for elementary school students. Senior is also the junior high school version of Little League. Although there are also beginners, the main players are basically They are players selected through professional training.

Many of them are even teams led by retired professional players, and of course these are the strongest among the Seniors.

Just like Chris's Marugame Senior is a top team, Miyuki's Edogawa Senior is an ordinary team. Although the coach is also a person with relevant experience, he is at a semi-professional level at most, which is certainly better than soft baseball like them. , this kind of blind play is too much better.

Even the coach of the famous softball baseball team in the student club is far inferior professionally to an ordinary team like Edogawa Senior where Miyuki plays.

Similarly, most of the senior players do not participate in school clubs and directly participate in team training after school.

Even the Senior players hired by Tokugawa did not have much tacit understanding with their teammates. Therefore, they either guarded the outfield, served as catchers, or simply replaced the entire infield with Senior players. The main thing to achieve integration through this method was The gap between professionals and amateurs is too big.

"I remember what Sen-chan said, right? Even the most ordinary Senior team is not much weaker than the Wildcats because they are junior high school students and have stronger bodies! We don't have a strong Senior team in Nagano, but... !" Aoki broke the silence.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Xiandao said.

"But!……"

"I'm talking about a complete Senior team, and they may not be able to bring in a few. The positions of those players are also uncertain. You can't bring in half of the starters, right?" Xiandao interrupted.

"Xian Dao is right. It's not very clear this year, but judging from previous years, it's very rare, and there have only been a few in the past ten years.

And we haven’t seen Senior players appear in recent years. It's just a possibility.

According to their practice, when the Tokugawa team is weak, they try to go to the school to see if they can recruit a few senior students.

You can imagine the success rate!

But one thing everyone should remember is that the Little League teams make great efforts every year to recruit players, so their players are of high quality and have received professional guidance during their elementary school years. "Kosano sat down and made the final summary.

"Look! It's just the Little League!"

"The real Sano can scare people."

"Where are you trying to scare people? Do you think someone from the Little League team is easy to deal with?"

"No, it is!"

"You should also know very well that you are still far from the level of the Little League team. Even in terms of fielding ability, fielding range, and attacking these basics, you are still far behind them.

Not to mention technical skills, they are from professional teams.

Those who are worth poaching are not ordinary players. "

"Sorry! Sen-chan!"

"However, this is really bad luck! All in all, as I said before, it is enough for us to implement our own baseball!

It doesn't matter whether we win or lose, we are much, much weaker than them, this is a fact.

But don’t make a play that you will regret, and how much you can learn from the other party in the game!

The opponent is very strong, but it won't make us feel invincible like the Wildcats.

that's enough! "

"Ok!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded firmly. After that, no one looked at the match list and silently started training with gloves and bats. “Tokugawa Junior High School!” Sawamura clenched his fists tightly.

"Just because we can't win now doesn't mean we won't win in the future. Don't worry! Let's go!" Sendao comforted Sawamura.

Sawamura also followed everyone out.

"Kosano! Thank you for your hard work!"

"Come on!" Teacher Sano waved his hand!

"Ah!"

On this day, everyone was training vigorously, and the quality was surprisingly high. In the end, Sendao urged them to disband early. After all, they still have a practice match with the Deming Academy Middle School tomorrow. For them, The top 16 are already strong enough.

Tokugawa Junior High School, Demei Academy Junior High School, the difference between the two words is only one character, but the strength is completely different.

Tokugawa Junior High School is the biggest stumbling block on the road of Chicheng in the country, and it is an opponent that he may not be able to win even after three years of fighting. However, Chicheng is still a new bud now, and their opponent is not the superior Tokugawa, but Compared with the top 16 teams in the top 8 all year round, Deming Junior High School is just an emerging team.

……

the next day,

"Yo Xi! Is everyone here? Let's go! We want to win!"

"Oh!!!"

Before getting on the bus, they raised their morale as if they were swearing an oath. Everyone knew that today would be the beginning of Chicheng Junior High School's battle to go national.

……

"Coach Yashiro, you've been waiting for a long time!" After getting off the bus, Teacher Sano led everyone to greet the other coach as usual.

"You are the ones, thank you for your hard work! I saw the schedule, you are really unlucky!"

"There's nothing we can do about it!"

"You're right, let's have a good game today!"

"Ok!"

In the end, Deming Junior High School won the guessing game. They chose to go later and Chicheng Junior High School attacked first.

At the beginning, Coach Yashiro noticed that Sawamura's ball speed was much slower than a week ago. He immediately guessed that the catcher could not catch the opponent's full pitch, so the pitcher held back, and it was not like the moving ball that Coach Mitani told him. Although he has never seen it before.

Knowing that, with the cooperation of inside and outside feet and slight floating, the first round of hitting the line still made them useless. Similarly, they had nothing to do with the opponent's pitcher.

The two sides entered into a short pitching battle at the beginning. In the second round, Deming Junior High School took the lead and took advantage of Chicheng's small fielding range and Sawamura's inability to contain the loopholes, using small ball tactics to score one point.

The score lasted until the fifth inning, when Ohno's hit ball hit the bases. The opponent's defense made a mistake when Aoki sent the bases. In the end, Kondo's second base hit at three and Sawamura's hit at four scored two runs. .

Coach Yashiro sighed that this pitcher's hitting was too good.

However, in the second half of the seventh inning, the opponent once again got the opportunity to complete the batting, which made Sendao understand that the perfect defense against Seiwa and Sakura Girl before was just a matter of their own luck and the other party's lack of understanding of them. Seiwa's battle was with partners. He was in such good shape that he performed beyond his level. In last week's Sakura game, it was his and Sawamura's performance that gave Sendō the illusion that his team's defense was very good.

"The road is still long! Everything has just begun," Xiandao sighed.

In the end, the two sides shook hands and settled for a draw at 2-2.
