"Appreciate~"
When the players of the Tenryuji Middle School baseball team came on the field, the audience booed loudly. In particular, the brothers of the Brotherhood of Brotherhood made the loudest boos.
You said that Akagi has preserved his strength, but his ace pitcher is still on the field, and he can go to the mound at any time to save the scene. The players sent are also the main force.
In short, in the eyes of the brothers of the Akagi Brotherhood, it is reasonable and appropriate for Akagi Middle School to do so. The most important point is that Akagi Middle School showed respect for this final in Nagano Prefecture.
As for Sawamura, why didn't he stand on the pitching mound for the first time? This is likely to be the arrangement of Akagi Middle School. In previous games, Akagi Middle School did not do this.
On the other hand, if you look at Tenryuji Middle School, they have already used the bench to compete in a grand manner! As the signboard of Nagano Prefecture, now the strongest team in Nagano Prefecture, how shameless are you? Did you respect this final?
Inexplicably, the brothers of the Brotherhood of Hearts felt the deep malice of Tenryu Temple. I really want them to say that they can't actually say anything, but they just have this feeling that Tianlong Temple is in Yinchi City. That's why they boo Tianlong Temple so much.
This booing would naturally have little effect on the old man in the mountains, whose skin is thicker than the city wall.
But in Tianlong Temple, it's not just the old man Yamano.
Qi Haiyao looked at his coach with a livid face, and said almost word by word: "Coach! Coach!"
The old fox in the mountains didn't lift his eyelids: "Sit down!"
"Hey!"
Almost subconsciously, Nanami Haruka agreed and sat down obediently.
The assistant coach next to him knew that his task was coming. At this time, he had to help these little guys with ideological work. Otherwise, this fire is simmering, and it is still uncertain what will happen. On the field, the younger players are more easily affected by emotions. If it is because of this, the younger players of Tianlong Temple Middle School will be depressed. That day, the Dragon Temple was really worth the loss!
"Xiaoyao, this is your last year of middle school! This is also the strongest year of our Tianlong Temple! For you, Mr. Yamano has high hopes."
The assistant coach first gave Qi Hai Yao a sweet date, and continued talking when Qi Hai Yao calmed down.
"The national competition is a very long process. Every decision the coach makes is carefully considered. I know you are not convinced, but I think you should understand the truth. Akagi Middle School is very strong! It is not us. I think you know better than everyone about opponents that can be easily defeated. Yes, we are not afraid of them. But there is no need to shake out all the cards that you have already thought about for a final that has nothing to do with the overall situation. You know that even if We beat them in this game, and it is very likely that we will meet them in the next Kanto Conference or the National Tournament. By then, all our trump cards have been used up, so how can we attack Sawamura? Last night, Yamano-sensei and I discussed it until midnight. We know that it is very difficult to make this decision, but in order to allow everyone to go far, and for the honor of Tenryu Temple, there are some things we must know how to choose."
These words clearly spoke to Qi Haiyao's heart. Faintly, there were tears in his eyes.
"Dad, he really didn't sleep until twelve o'clock?"
The assistant coach was stunned for a moment, but nodded anyway.
Heaven and earth conscience, it is not easy for him to speak nonsense.
"You're so old, what can you learn from young people?"
……
Under the persuasion of the assistant coach of Tianlong Temple Middle School, all the main force of Tianlong Temple Middle School calmed down. Teenagers of thirteen or fourteen years old say that they are not big or small, but they already know almost everything they need to know!
They all understand the truth, but they just can't get past the barrier in their hearts. Now the assistant coach is calmly presenting the facts and reasoning with them. They also quickly accepted the decision and stopped clamoring to play.
On the other side of the court, Sawamura is also doing ideological work for Komaki, who is about to play.
You let Xiaomu deal with other teams, it's no problem, but let him challenge the king of Nagano County, from the same background, Xiaomu is a little nervous. It was okay to just train with Tianlongsi Middle School before, so even if he lost, it would not cause any psychological pressure on Xiaomu.
Originally, Akagi Middle School gave up this championship competition.
But it's different now. Now that Sawamura is going to win, Komaki can no longer lose points indefinitely. Komaki used to be a backup pitcher for Nagano Metropolitan Junior, and his strength is very good. With his background, even if he challenges players one or two years older than him, he has nothing to be afraid of. But the problem is that these substitutes at Tianlong Temple Middle School are not just two years older than Komaki. They are also the main force or backup of various junior club backgrounds. With their strength and talent, coupled with the fact that they are two years older than Xiaomu, it is no wonder that Xiaomu is a little timid!
"Don't worry, if the situation is not good, I will take care of you. All you have to do is stabilize the situation and show all your strengths. You have improved a lot in the past six months. The previous games also proved that That's it, isn't it? Five innings, as long as you don't let the other team overtake us by two points. I'll keep you on the mound. If it's over two points, I'll replace you, have you understood?"
"clear!"
For people who are confused, the effect of various encouragement is not necessarily good. You give him a clear task, and then tell him your backup plan, which will stimulate his fighting spirit even more.
This is how Komaki is, and his blood boils when he is fooled by Sawamura.
"Finally, and most importantly, you have to trust the fielders behind you. It's a bit bragging to say that, but in fact, we do have a team with me at the core. These guys behind you may have their own shortcomings and Insufficient, but if you just talk about defense, they are absolutely very reliable!"
Saying that, Sawamura glanced at the little friends behind him. The little friends looked at Sawamura excitedly one by one. At this moment, their hearts and momentum are connected together.
Game start!
With Komaki's ball power and speed, it is still very difficult to deal with the batter of Tianlong Temple. At this time, the small partners in charge of the garrison of Akagi Middle School broke out collectively. They blocked the baseball with their own body, will, and technology, and defused the attack of Tenryu Temple again and again.
By the end of the third inning, Akagi Middle School didn't lose a single hit.
Not only is the defense strong, but the line-ups are also fully blooming. By the end of the third inning, Akagi Middle School had already hit six hits and scored three points!
