v2 Chapter 38: : The eve of the final battle

In the battle between Tedong High School and Pharmacist High School, Pharmacist High School came out on top and defeated Tedong High School with a score of 5:3.

This time, the fans of West Tokyo went crazy.

You must know that Pharmacist High School in Nishitokyo is not one of the best teams at this stage, Qingdao High School and Daocheng Industrial High School are the top teams, and Pharmacist High School is at best the third.

But even the third-ranked Pharmacist High School in West Tokyo has put down the King of East Tokyo, Tedong High School.

How strong is West Tokyo?

It's all an unknown...

In other grouping areas, if there are many strong teams, at most it will be called a fierce battle area.

As strong as West Tokyo is to this extent, it seems to be a dead zone.

It will be like a meat grinder, crushing the dreams of countless giants...

As a West Tokyo fan, this feeling is still very fulfilling.

What's so great about giving birth to a king?

The strongest part of West Tokyo is to drag out their second and third place teams and still hang everything.

Fans satisfied their vanity, and their support for Pharmacist High School continued unabated.

On the other hand, the friends of Qingdo High School left the stadium under the leadership of their supervisor Kataoka.

For today's game, they are all deeply touched.

These two teams are very strong, completely different from the opponents Qingdao High School has faced in the past!

Although the City Junior High School is also very strong, unfortunately, the place where they are strong is also the place where the Qingdao High School is strong.

Although it is only a line of strength, but the continuous accumulation of circumstances directly caused the situation of the previous crushing.

But these two teams are different, they both surpass Qingdo High School in one aspect.

The garrison of Tedong High School is also second to none in the whole country.

The violent attack power of Pharmacist High School is even more speechless.

Under such circumstances, it was really not easy for Qingdao High School to defeat them.

Especially in Thunder City!

Then in today's game, the reason why Pharmacist High School was able to reverse the success in the end. And after the reversal, hold the situation.

The biggest hero is the Thunder City.

Pharmacist High School scored a total of five points, four of which were related to him, and he even got three points directly.

In his direct dialogue with Mukai Taiyo, he even abused Mukai Taiyo to the fullest...

The strength is so powerful that it is hard not to think about it.

The duel between this monster and Sawamura Eijun was very much looking forward to even the little friends of the Qingdo High School baseball team.

Based on these analysis, Pharmacist High School is undoubtedly a strong opponent.

Silent all the way back to school.

"Meet in the conference room after dinner!"

After Supervisor Kataoka finished his instructions, he left with a few members of the coaching staff.

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team took a shower first, and then went straight to the baseball club's combat conference room after eating.

By the time Sawamura Eijun arrived at the conference room, the people in the conference room were almost there.

"It's all your fault for dawdling, we're late again!"

Kuramochi, who ate the last meal, had to buy a bottle of drink after eating.

Sawamura Eijun was forced to accompany him, and he was framed as soon as he arrived at the conference room.

Sawamura Eijun gave Kuramochi a vicious look with his white eyes!

If I can beat him, I must let him know why Taohua is so red!

Supervisor Kataoka swept over with sharp eyes, and both of them hurriedly lowered their heads.

In the end, Director Kataoka didn't say a word, and the two went to their seats as if they had been granted amnesty.

They are all old fritters in the team. As long as Supervisor Kataoka didn't ask for trouble at the time, it would be fine after that.

"Okay, let's start the meeting now and make a summary of the last game!"

Director Kataoka sat down after giving instructions, and in a seat next to him, a young man stood up.

This person is naturally the current ginseng of the Qingdo High School baseball club, Mr. Watanabe!

Watanabe took the lead in walking in front of the projector, and then analyzed it for everyone one by one. Today, they played against the city's junior high school.

"Everyone played very well in today's game! The most important thing is that Sawamura-san held the situation and kept us from dropping points. This invisibly put a lot of pressure on our opponents, and also gave us a chance to break out... …”

Watanabe said this not to flatter Sawamura Eijun, but to explain the facts.

In the competition with the City University and the Third High School, the players really played very well. The fact that the game could be ended prematurely by seven innings was not a real thing for the third year in the city. The main reason is that the friends in the baseball club of Qingdao High School played so well today.

"Of course, there is also a problem here, that is, the opponents did not evade the duel with our batters. If it were another type of pitcher, it would be difficult for us to score so many points in today's game."

In today's game, the hits were mainly concentrated on Sawamura Eijun and Miyuki Kazuya.

If you change your opponent, don't take the initiative to choose to fight with these two people.

The result could be something else.

After talking about Qingdao High School's own competition, he held a small reflection meeting for a few players who were still lacking in performance.

The next thing to say is the focus of today's meeting.

Qingdo High School's final opponent, Pharmacist High School!

"Originally, as long as you reach the finals of the spring competition, you will be eligible to directly participate in the Kanto Conference, so the two teams that enter the finals will generally not fight too hard..."

Watanabe first described the situation of the competition every year.

Of course, this is all foreshadowing, and the focus is still behind.

"but!"

Afraid of anything but, but it means that there will definitely be a reversal.

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team are naturally aware of such a routine. So when I heard Watanabe shout out the word but, I didn't act surprised at all.

"This year's spring competition finals, the meaning has changed!"

One of the two teams in the final is Qingdao High School, which has previously hosted Koshien in summer and Koshien in spring.

If they meet another giant team in the final, that giant team will definitely choose to back down, because this is the convention of the final. The winning team in the final is the strongest team at this stage.

If there is no such convention, everyone is a young player with strong blood, who is afraid of whom?

I definitely don't want to supervise the imagination, and the fight is so peaceful.

But it's different now, there are so-called convention constraints. The weaker party will take the initiative to retreat...

But this does not include dark horse teams like Pharmacist High School.

The so-called dark horse team has suddenly risen, and the previous history must have no background or achievements.

When such a team sees a championship at hand, will they voluntarily retreat?

I'm afraid it will be difficult.

But can't tell.

After all, compared to the upcoming Kanto Conference, the champion of the Spring Competition is really tasteless. It is not a good choice for the team to expose his strength too early at this time, so that he cannot go too far in the Kanto Conference.

This kind of thing is put on the bright side, and no one knows how the other party will choose.

It's not impossible to guess.

Generally, you can roughly guess the opponent's choice based on the character of the opponent's main supervisor.

It's a pity that it was only for ordinary supervision. The target changed to Hung Leizang from Yakushi High School. How he would choose is unknown.

"The guys from Pharmacist High School are like a bunch of crazy people. Who knows what they think?"

Kuramochi complained in dissatisfaction.

Compared with the guys from Yaoshi High School who played cards out of common sense, Kuramochi was more willing to meet Teto in the finals.

Although the strength of Didong High School is also very strong, the other party's routine Qingdao High School is at least familiar with it, unlike the people from Pharmacist High School who can't feel the other party's pulse at all.

After analyzing all this, Watanabe sat down on the lounge chair.

Tomorrow is the final, and tomorrow's starting lineup and tactics must be decided today.

Of course, these are the responsibilities of the Kataoka supervisor and the coaching staff, and have nothing to do with him.

Supervisor Kataoka was still looking at his disciples, and it took a few minutes before he spoke.

"Whether it is the main player or the substitute player, I have great confidence in your strength. I believe that no matter who plays, it will definitely bring victory to the team."

"Tomorrow's game, the situation is changing rapidly, everyone should be prepared from the beginning, ready to play at any time..."

"Yes!"

The words of Director Kataoka made the friends of the Qingdo High School baseball team startled.

What he means is that tomorrow's game is going to be tricky.

If the opponent sent a relatively strong one, then Qingdao High School would also send a relatively strong one. If the opponent sent a substitute, they wanted to preserve the strength of the Tokyo area.

Naturally, Qingdao High School can't bully others, and will definitely use the bench to challenge.

There is no problem with such tactics on the surface, but there is a premise, that is, is the main force or the substitute who will be the first to appear?

Baseball is different from basketball by a rule that a player who is replaced cannot play again.

Therefore, it is a big question whether Qingdao High School will send the main force or the substitute at the beginning.

Apparently, Director Kataoka also thought of this, and it seemed that he had no choice.

"Tomorrow's starting lineup is a mix of main and backup, starting pitchers..."

When Supervisor Kataoka called out the words of starting pitcher, all the friends around stood up.

That's the point.

Supervisor Kataoka's eyes passed over the faces of Eijun Sawamura, Akatsuki Furuya, and Kawakami in turn.

Finally, he turned his attention to Wang Xi, a freshman in the first grade.

"Tomorrow's starting pitcher, I plan to let Wang Xi go!"

When Director Kataoka said these words, all the friends in the baseball club of Qingdo High School were stunned.

Director Kataoka has no brains, right?

Tomorrow's game is the final of the spring competition.

No matter how tasteless the championship was, it was still a champion!

In such a game, would it be a little sloppy to send a first-year rookie pitcher directly?

Director Kataoka didn't mean to explain to everyone, and after he finished his instructions, he turned around and left.
