v2 Chapter 44: : professional and amateur

The buddies from Qingdao High School's baseball club returned to their temporary break in Texas.

The expressions on the faces of the players were all very relaxed, and they were all chatting and laughing.

Today's game, winning is really beautiful! !

The performances of the players are excellent, and almost every player who has played has achieved good results.

In this case, they really have no reason to be unhappy.

Thinking that in today's game, they severely bruised Supervisor Kataoka's plan and slapped their supervisor in the face.

Friends are even happier!

By the end of the game, these players at ABC High School in North America were numb.

They didn't dare to expect the game to be reversed and won, but looked at the players of Qingdao High School's baseball club pitifully, their eyes full of begging.

Faced with that kind of look, even the experienced Qing Dao friends couldn't help but soften their hearts.

By the time the game reached the sixth inning, they were already 13-0.

Eight points in the fourth inning alone.

Three more points in the fifth game!

In the sixth game, the friends made persistent efforts and scored another two points.

Look at those players from North American abc high schools who have completely given up their resistance.

The little friends in the baseball club of Qingdo High School finally regained a little conscience.

Mainly because this kind of game is played again, it is meaningless.

So the friends slowed down their offensive rhythm and finally defeated the opponent 18:0.

After the game, the players of abc high school were able to show mercy at the last moment to the players of the baseball club of Qingdo high school.

Thank you so much!

In their reluctant eyes, the little friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team returned to their place to rest temporarily.

They didn't have much time to grumble, and after a simple adjustment, they had to welcome their third game.

The opponent is also a high school in Texas, North America.

The ranking is much higher than that of abc high school. It is said to be a frequent visitor to the semi-finals, and also won the runner-up last year.

It can be seen that after knowing the strength of abc high school, the little friends of the Qingdao high school baseball team have no feelings for the high school players in North America.

In the lounge of Director Kataoka.

Kataoka, Ochiai, Takashima!

The three giants of the Qingdao High School baseball club sat around a round table.

"How can it be so delicious?"

Takashima Rei muttered to himself.

Kataoka was actually a little embarrassed in this game.

This made Takashima Rei, as an assistant, brooding.

"Actually, it's not surprising!"

Coach Ochiai touched the mustache on his chin and said.

After the game, he kept an eye on it and asked Sawamura Eijun to ask about the opponent's training time.

"How long do you usually train a day?"

At that time, the abc high school player stretched out two fingers.

Sawamura Eijun's face was full of surprise.

"Two hours of training a day?"

"Training once every two days, one hour and forty minutes at a time."

That is to say, an average day, not even an hour.

When he heard this answer, Sawamura Eijun had a look of disbelief.

When the news was passed on to Coach Ochiai, Ochiai was also surprised.

This kind of thing is almost unimaginable in an island country, as long as it is a team that can play results.

Of course, a team like that kind of game may not even have formal training, which is another matter.

Any team that can reach the top 16 or even the top 8 in this area of ​​Tokyo.

The training time is not short.

Generally speaking, it can last two or three hours a day.

In addition to studying, the rest of the time is almost all playing baseball.

It's not just baseball, other club sports are similar.

Not to mention those who have achieved results, even if there are no results, one or two hours of training a day is not a problem.

Like the Qingdo High School baseball team, it is a giant team that aims at professional players and looks like a quasi-professional team.

More training time.

Even if it's not boot camp, it's not Saturday and Sunday.

under normal class conditions.

The players in the baseball club of Qingdo High School also got up at 5:30.

Then start running, hitting drills, etc.

Breakfast starts at seven o'clock.

After school in the afternoon, players in the baseball club usually have a lesson earlier. (In the absence of regular classes or exams.)

That is to say, practice starts at 4:00 in the afternoon.

According to the urination of Qingdao High School baseball team, they usually train until dark.

The specific time is not fixed, because it is not necessarily the time when it is dark in winter and summer.

Even in winter, training until six o'clock and half past six is ​​commonplace.

Not to mention the summer, sometimes training until 7:00, or even 7:30.

Then go to dinner.

Players in the baseball club don't have to worry about not being able to eat dinner.

In the Qingdao high school baseball team, they have a special cafeteria. When the training is over, when is the meal.

The players themselves also have a tradition of extra training, that is, after having dinner after regular training, they usually practice an extra hour or two.

Even if you don't take that into account, just count your regular training time.

From an hour and a half in the morning to 2 to 3 hours in the afternoon.

The players of the Qingdao High School baseball team train for an average of four or five hours a day almost every day.

Although the training intensity is not as great as that of professional players, the training time is very close to that of professional players.

To put it bluntly, for baseball, one of these players in the Qingdo High School baseball club counts as one, and they are all professional.

Perhaps limited by individual talent and racial differences.

There are many players on the Qingdo High School baseball team who are not particularly good.

But there is a saying that stupid birds fly first and enter the forest early, and diligence can make up for their clumsiness.

For the players of the Qingdao High School baseball team, no matter what they do, they are not the same as the ABC high school baseball team that plays tickets.

"No wonder the strength gap between the two sides is so big!"

When Ochiai told Takashima Rei and Kataoka about these things, the two suddenly realized.

It is they who are preconceived.

I thought that the top eight at the regional level should at least have the level of the top eight in Tokyo.

They overlooked that the situation in the two countries is different.

Baseball in island countries is a national system, and baseball in North America is an elite system.

Under the elite system, it is natural that those with superior strength are extremely superior, and those with insufficient strength are particularly incompetent.

If this is not the case, how can a team like abc college make it to the top eight in the region?

"In this way, our plans are all miscalculated."

Takashima Rei looked at the battle watch in his hand and said with a frown.

Of the eight practice games, only three were regional representatives, the kind of professional teams.

Most of the others are regular high schools.

Looking at it this way, the full battle table they originally arranged is now a complete joke.

At the level of the Qingdao High School baseball team, it was meaningless to play against an ordinary high school in North America.

The players came on the court, but it was just a performance.

It's hard to see who is really stronger?

"Go and talk to Mr. Robert. It doesn't matter if you cancel the two high school battles, and add another chance to play with the regional representative."

"Would this not be good?"

Ochiai is hard to say.

The personality of the islanders is somewhat rigid, and things that have already been decided cannot be easily changed.

"There's nothing wrong with it!"

Takashima slapped the table heavily, picked up the battle table in his hand, and left.

Regardless of being a woman, Takashima Rei is not the type to follow the rules.

As long as it's good for the Qingdo High School baseball team, she doesn't mind bothering others at all.

Ochiai also had nothing to say about this, and after Takashima Rei left, he turned to ask Kataoka.

"Follow our plan!"

Kataoka said.

When he spoke, Kataoka's tone was unavoidable.

In fact, even he felt that such a game was really meaningless.

Let a professional team like them play against some amateur teams.

No matter how you think about this, it will inevitably make people angry.

But the rules of the game have been set, and they have also discussed with Robert before.

It would be a bit unruly to change things rashly.

So even if it feels like such a game, it doesn't make much sense.

Qingdao High School also intends to continue the competition.

"This kind of competition is not without gain. Although there is no way to cultivate the ability of the players to struggle in adversity, it is still clear at a glance who performs well and who performs better."

Perhaps seeing the loss of Supervisor Kataoka, Ochiai took the initiative to change the subject.

And casually, put a piece of paper in front of Director Kataoka.

Recorded on this piece of paper is the performance of the nine players who played.

The opponent's strength is indeed a bit average, but he can entangle with the bench of the Qingdo High School baseball team until the fourth inning.

Their strength is not completely without reference value.

For some players in the Qingdo High School baseball club, it still poses a little threat.

Under this kind of threat, it can indeed be seen who can perform better.

The first thing that catches your eye is Akatsuki.

Two home runs, one long hit! A total of five points were scored.

The pitcher threw two fours, conceded a hit and no points.

Also had 14 strikeouts! !

This kind of performance is among the benches of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Absolutely second to none.

If it weren't for the absolute ace of Sawamura Eijun in the team, Ochiai even thought that Akatsuki Furuya was qualified to be the ace of Qingdo High School.

Although this little guy didn't get into baseball until he entered high school.

Now it's full, but it's just over a year.

But even so, Xiao Gu Xiao's strength is still beyond doubt.

His ability has long surpassed that of the senior Kawakami who voted for him.

Supervisor Kataoka was clearly mentally prepared for Akaya's excellent performance.

So the performance is not very surprising.

What surprised Director Kataoka was the second one.

One home run, two outfield hits.

After his excellent performance in the previous game, Yuuki's performance in this game was once again impressive.

Although in today's game, Wang Xi, Yujing Xun, Gao Jin...

The performance of these players is also very good, commendable.

But compared with Yuuki General Secretary, they still have a gap.

Originally, among the freshmen, Yuuki was not the most eye-catching.

In these two games, there has been reborn progress.

It's hard to ask Kataoka to supervise without looking at him.

With a total of 18 points, Xiaogu Xiao scored five points.

Yuuki scored four points.

The two of them accounted for half of the total score.

Therefore, it is not all their personal credit that they can get so many points.

But when needed, send your teammates back to home plate safely.

This in itself is also a strong fight, a particularly precious quality.

If nothing else, just these two games.

Yuuki Shogi, there is no doubt that he has this quality.

...
