In the dormitory arranged by Koshien.
The players and coaches of Qingdo High School are having a meeting in the hall.
Day 2's starting pitchers have been announced, and it's the catcher's turn.
At this time, even Director Kataoka seemed a little hesitant. To a certain extent, the training of catchers is more difficult than that of pitchers. Some experienced superintendents of wealthy families often put such a sentence on their lips, that is, it takes at least two years to train a catcher.
It is not difficult to see from this, how difficult is it to cultivate a reassuring catcher?
From this point of view, Qingdo High School is undoubtedly lucky. In the past two years, although they have been in the pitcher position, they have not found good seedlings. But the position of the catcher has ushered in a bumper harvest.
Chris and Miyuki Kazuya.
These two are unquestionably rare and talented catchers.
Any one of the two, let alone the position of the rich and powerful catcher, they are even better than the average rich and powerful catcher!
Any of the two can be obtained by other teams, and it is estimated that the supervision of that team will wake up from a dream.
But just like these two people, they both entered the Qing Dao.
Sometimes there are too many talents, which is also a kind of trouble.
Like now, facing an opponent who has to go all out. Kataoka doesn't even know who to pick to be the main catcher?
This feeling is painful and happy.
In the first match against Okinawa Konan High School, Director Kataoka chose Miyuki.
Mainly because of the players of Konan High School in Okinawa, the attack is known for its maneuverability. Originally, according to Superintendent Photooka's idea, in the process of the game, the catcher must be restrained a lot.
That's why he sent Miyuki to play!
Although Chris's restraint is also good, he has just returned from injury after all. Under the conditions, Supervisor Kataoka does not want to increase the risk of Chris' injury recurrence.
So he naturally dispatched Miyuki who was in better condition.
In that match, Miyuki's performance was of course perfect. Not only in matching the ball, but even in hitting, he showed a very different sense of presence.
In the second game, Chris came on as the main catcher.
On the surface, his performance is not very amazing, but only Kataoka knows how much credit can be attributed to Danbo's ability to exert such a strong strength?
In theory, Chris is definitely qualified to debut as a main catcher. But in such a fierce competition, Kataoka actually thought Miyuki might do better.
When the main catcher was about to be announced, the players of Qingdo High School also realized the unusual atmosphere. Everyone fell silent, staring intently at their supervisor to see what supervisor Kataoka had ordered.
"The main catcher is Chris, Miyuki is ready."
After hesitating for about half a minute, Kataoka finally announced.
The main catcher is the main catcher. There is no reason to replace the bench before this fierce battle?
In the end, Kataoka chose to stick to the principle.
In this game, the nine players from Qingdao High School were the starting No. 1 to No. 9.
Of course, Miyuki and Danba also made preparations.
"Disband them all."
After the personnel's instructions were completed, the meeting was over, and Supervisor Kataoka announced the dissolution of everyone.
The warm-up training to maintain the state has already been completed by all the players of Qingdao High School.
The next thing they do is stay in shape, study the opponent's data, and think about how they will fight tomorrow.
"Sawamura, come, let me study the opponent's information with you, as well as the tactics of the game."
After the meeting was dissolved, Chris directly told Yu Zemura.
"Can I participate too?"
Unwilling to be lonely, Yu Xing took the initiative to apply to join.
"If you want to come, come together."
Chris, Miyuki, and Sawamura gathered in the dormitory where Chris was.
In addition to the three of them, there is Shinji Kinmaru.
He and Chris were arranged in a dormitory.
Jinmaru Shinji, who was originally a handyman, would not be arranged with the main players, but in the end, the arrangement came and went, and the two still lived together.
This time, neither of them had any objections. When they were at school, they were originally in the same dormitory.
If Sawamura hadn't wanted to help Furuya and Kominato, he would have been placed in the Kuramochi Masuko dormitory.
"Have you got all the information on the hitters at Xibang High School?"
The TV is placed in the middle of the dormitory, and opposite the TV is a small table. The four were divided into two teams and sat on both sides of the table.
Sawamura leaned against Kanamaru, Miyuki leaned against Chris, sitting opposite each other.
Master Chris asked Sawamura in a low voice while sorting out the information.
"I've seen it all!"
Sawamura nodded affirmatively.
Chris was obviously very satisfied with this answer, he nodded slightly to Sawamura, then turned his head and said to Kanimaru.
"Go get a few glasses of water."
"Oh!"
For Chris's order Jin Maru agreed very happily.
"I don't want water anymore, give me a bottle of Nutrition Express."
Sawamura said with a smile.
"Bastard, why should I serve you?"
Chris, as the senior in the same dormitory, just told him that, what kind of green onion is Sawamura? He even dared to tell him Master Jin Wan.
Having said that, Jin Maru obediently went out to prepare water and drinks.
Inside the room, Chris and Sawamura continued to discuss the issue just now.
"How do you feel about the opponent's line play? How many are really threatening?"
"If you study it carefully, you will find it. No wonder Xibang is called a champion candidate. The overall lineup of Xibang High School is very strong. Sano Shuzai. He is worthy of being called a monster-level hitter. He swings the bat very fast. He can wait until the ball is completely in his hand before swinging the bat. The stick is forcibly suppressed. When dealing with him, the type of Ming Nagiya just restrains him. For me, on the contrary, he should be the type that restrains me the most. It may be difficult to suppress him simply by pitching. I need to Help with the ball."
"anything else?"
“There are four or five other batters who can threaten me more or less! The most important of these are their pitching partners. The ace pitcher is third-ranked Todiya Kutsu, and fifth-ranked Hirano. Zero. These two guys are also very unique in their blows. Not to mention their past achievements, I also think that these two guys are very dangerous from a purely intuitive point of view. So when the real confrontation, I need your help from the master. "
To Sawamura's sincere request, Chris answered very simply.
"Don't worry, leave it to me, I'm very strong!"
