v2 Chapter 8: : Sawamura's draft

School starts, class division~

The little friends of Qingdao High School baseball club are busy with these things, and they are already familiar with it.

It will be solved soon!

afternoon.

The players of the baseball club gather at the a field.

According to the original process, they should still be resting at this time.

But there was no way. This year, Qingdao High School came to the end in the spring Koshien schedule. When they came back, the Tokyo Spring Competition had already started.

If it wasn't for Qingdao High School, which participated in Jiaziyuan, they were directly selected as seeds and did not participate in the third round, they would have been eliminated.

The players didn't even have time to dissipate the fatigue accumulated in their bodies, so they had to devote themselves to intensive training.

Fortunately, only the first army was forced to train, and the players of the other second and third armies did not have to be in such a hurry.

Of course, they were not idle either.

As assistants to the coaches, they will help evaluate new players for the draft.

The person who presided over the draft was Deputy Minister Takashima Rei, who looked at the hundred people standing in front of her with pride.

There are 1/3 here that she dug up by herself.

With the continuous **** of the country last summer and this spring, Qingdao High School's reputation has also risen with the tide, and very few of the players she valued are rejected.

In this group of people, there are many good players. Some even in middle school years, have come up with actual records.

For example, Yui smoked, for example, formed a general secretary.

On the other hand, Sawamura and the others, led by Miyuki Kazuya, went to the a court to find their feelings.

The most important task for them now is to restore their stamina adjustment state, in the hope of recovering all their stamina before the official game starts.

"Have you seen the group?"

Kuramochi said with a look of schadenfreude.

"Look!"

"Group D is really amazing!"

"I didn't expect those two teams to be split together."

"Why are you still in the mood to gloat? These two teams stay together, which means that one of them will not be able to win the seeding team. Think carefully about which group this team is divided into, which group is really Blood mold was poured."

"If you say that, it's true."

When Miyuki said that, Kuramochi's face could not help but wrinkle.

Daocheng, who has returned from Jiaziyuan, will meet the third high school in the city in the No. 9 game.

Both are the top giants in West Tokyo, the collision of these two teams. It is bound to be a war of volcanoes hitting the earth.

The players are talking about it.

Supervisor Kataoka is about to be invited back to his university to give a speech, also to recharge himself.

As the supervisor of the national hegemony Qingdao High School, he felt that he was a little powerless, so he wanted to learn.

For this, the friends in the baseball club of Qingdao High School agreed with both hands and feet.

Just think of the great **** Kataoka standing beside him.

They felt uncomfortable all over.

Before leaving, Director Kataoka deliberately called Miyuki and Sawamura Eijun in front of him.

"In the three days I've been away, I'll leave the team to Coach Ochiai. When I come back on April 5, let the new players introduce themselves."

"Yes!"

What can Miyuki say? Can only nod in agreement.

"As the captain of the team, I hope you can cooperate well with Coach Ochiai."

"Yes!"

After instructing Miyuki, Kataoka turned his head to Sawamura again.

"You can help Takashima during the draft party in a while."

Sawamura Eijun's eyes widened as he looked at his supervisor in disbelief.

joke!

Everyone is obviously doing basic training together to recover their physical strength.

How could he be in the mood to take care of Luo Shizi's draft?

Even if you are very curious about this year's juniors, you won't go to assess them yourself?

"I……"

Without much thought, Sawamura Eijun wanted to say no.

Just kidding, he is also very busy, and he is not in the mood to take care of those juniors.

"Aren't your fingers hurt? Take care of your fingers in the week before the competition."

Director Kataoka said without a doubt.

I have been able to participate in competitions before, where is the finger injury?

Sawamura suddenly felt that there were tens of thousands of grass-mud horses and mythical beasts galloping in his chest.

He was speechless.

Let yourself go to help Takashima, Director Kataoka, this is a different kind of gentleness.

"As the biggest star in the team, let you be the referee for the players. It can stimulate the enthusiasm of the juniors. I think the supervisor probably thinks so."

After Supervisor Kataoka left, Miyuki Kazuya shamelessly did ideological work for Sawamura Eijun.

Sawamura rolled his eyes speechlessly.

It's not that he doesn't understand Kataoka's plan, it's nothing more than using him as a living advertisement to attract investment.

Want to get ahead at Qingdo High School? Want to have thousands of fans? Want to be a big star?

You have a living example before your eyes.

This is the most successful product of our Qingdo High School in recent years, Sawamura Eijun.

Going to Qingdao High School, you will suffer if you can't get in, and you can't be fooled...

The image of the advertisement flashed in Sawamura Eijun's mind, and he shuddered subconsciously and ignored it.

The little friends got together and started their warm-up and training.

During this period of time, the training intensity of Qingdao High School was not strong.

Their most important task is not to increase their strength by leaps and bounds in these short days. But to eliminate physical fatigue, maintain their own state, to meet the spring competition.

Sawamura Eijun, who was ordered not to pitch by the supervisor Kataoka, came to Takashima Rei's side with a stomach full of fire.

At this time, he was also stunned by the crowd in front of him.

I go!

20 in a row, nearly seven rows!

Isn't that a joke?

Except for the players specially invited by Takashima Rei, most of the others also have certain strengths.

It's just that they weren't recruited by Qingdao High School, but that didn't mean they weren't confident in their own strength.

With Watanabe's thoughts in mind, it's not like there are no people who only regard baseball career as a club sport.

But compared with the number of more than 100 people, it seems rare.

As long as it's not brain-dead, it's not hard to imagine how rigorous the training of the Qingdao High School baseball team is on weekdays.

There are hardly any people who come to the Qingdao High School baseball team purely for the purpose of messing around.

Ninety percent of the more than 130 people have a baseball foundation.

How many regular members are there in the baseball club of Qingdo High School?

But only 120 people.

In addition to the original 59 people, more than 30 people were specially recruited.

There are only 30 places left.

Up to 2/3 elimination rate!

"Qualified members are regular members, and unqualified members are apprentice members. Apprentice members can withdraw at any time, and assessments will be conducted at the middle and end of each semester. This is an opportunity for trainee members to become regular members..."

Takashima Rei announced the rules of the assessment straight to the point.

Then the examination officially begins.

The preliminary assessment is actually very simple, and it is nothing more than the foundation of some basics.

First up is pitching!

It depends on how far you throw the ball.

Don't underestimate this point, it is difficult to throw the ball far without special practice.

Pitching speed, power, accuracy, distance...

These are all assessment criteria.

Qingdao High School has a special test site, and the longest distance is even more than 110 meters.

After giving the order, Takashima Rei explained to Sawamura Eijun next to him.

"Every ten meters is one point, and the highest is ten. Of course, if a player throws more than 110 meters, it can also be counted as an extra point."

The last sentence was added temporarily by Rei Takashima.

Originally, he didn't intend to say this, and he probably didn't say it in previous years, but last year, there was a weird guy in Qingdao High School.

In the first test, Akatsuki Fukugu threw 120 meters.

"Other than that, it's his accuracy. One point is deducted for every half meter of deviation, and the maximum is ten points. In theory, this test is a 20-point test question, and the full score is also 20 points."

Sawamura Eijun picked up a pen and prepared to record without saying a word.

He was full of anger at first, and naturally he was not in the mood to deal with the new apprentices.

This indifferent attitude has unexpectedly gained the attention of a group of little fans.

"That's Sawamura-senpai!"

"very handsome!"

"Looking at the way he writes, he's so handsome."

"When talking to the teacher, it is also a dashing attitude..."

The murmurs around him annoyed the blond boy.

The gang around here are all neurotic.

People make it clear that they are ignoring them How do they interpret that they are handsome and cool?

Regardless of Sawamura Eijun's attitude?

The test has still started.

Sawamura Eijun was hardly familiar with the name he read at the beginning.

Most of these people chose to join after seeing the results of Qing Dao.

They have a clear goal, as long as they can become the main players of Qingdo High School. You can enter Koshien almost steadily.

For the arrogant and arrogant, this is certainly a good challenge.

To tell the truth, the strength of these people is quite terrible, the average performance is 60 meters to 80 meters.

The deviation in the middle is not only two or three meters.

Record scores can be recorded to 13 points or more.

A score of 13 points seems unremarkable, but if you put it in the hundreds of thousands of high school balls, you can measure it. They are at least at the upper-middle level.

Some even reach the terrifying fifteen or sixteen points.

"The standard is really good!"

If these guys didn't come from Qingdao High School, it would be no problem to be the main force in an ordinary high school.

It's a pity that they came to Qingdao where monsters get together.

At this level, I want to get out of Qingdo High School.

They may have to work harder.

After all, Qingdao High School was not as easy as they thought.

I have to say, Takashima Rei's eyes are still very vicious.

She said that the players she was looking for were obviously higher than the average players.

I have been testing sixty or seventy people, and one person has thrown three balls.

Until now, the furthest distance was 87 meters.

He also had the highest score with 16 points.

The 87-meter long-range pitch is within two meters.

This level has surpassed most of the second- and third-year players of the original Third Army at Qingdo High School.
