v2 Chapter 138: : Back number, 2 in 1 (end of this volume)

What is reversal?

What is joy and sorrow!

This time, Eijun Sawamura really felt it.

He never imagined that things would change like this.

Also, what does that guy Sanada's eyes mean?

Why did Sawamura Eijun see sympathy in his eyes.

"You are really unlucky!"

The semi-finals and finals are connected.

If there is no accident in the middle, the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team will join the Qingdao High School baseball team in the semifinals.

The organizer is obviously more fair than Eijun Sawamura thought, and there is really nothing tricky about this draw.

Otherwise, Daocheng would be difficult to arrange in that position.

With this arrangement, it is even better to let Daocheng and Qingdao face off in the first round.

Daocheng Industrial High School is the only team that has the strength to challenge King Qingdao High School.

It is also the only team that ranks first with the Qingdo High School baseball team in the magazine's comprehensive strength rankings.

In terms of scores, the comprehensive score of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team is slightly higher than that of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

In terms of performance, the Qingdao High School baseball team is clearly superior.

The game between them can be regarded as a winner and loser.

When ranking the media, put Daocheng, Troll, and Qingdao.

The three teams are tied for the first tier.

Of course, Qing Dao's name came before the other two teams.

Such a match between the two teams is bound to turn into a battle of the century.

Needless to say, the losing side is eliminated. What else is there to say.

The winning side is equally unbearable, as the saying goes, if you kill 10,000 enemies, you will lose 8,000.

Even if it is the winning side, the final result is nothing but a disastrous victory.

How much strength will they have to face their opponents in the final?

If the organizer used a little bit of brains, they would not have arranged it like this. Since such a result has appeared, it also means that this time the organizer is really fair.

It's no wonder that Sanada would say that Sawamura Eijun and the others were unlucky.

"The situation is the same for you. Daocheng is not easy to mess with, and the third city junior is not a freelancer. Can you get points from Tianjiu?"

Sawamura Eijun replied unceremoniously.

Turning a blind eye to the provocations of others is not Sawamura Eijun's style.

"We will not lose, see you in the final!"

Sanada is now bursting with confidence.

Originally, before this summer, they were ready to fight any opponent.

Among these opponents, naturally, the three giants in West Tokyo are included.

The two teams that threaten them the most now will collide in advance.

In other words, the two of them will inevitably eliminate one.

For Pharmacist High School, this is nothing short of pie in the sky.

The grouping is so favorable, no wonder Sanada will be full of confidence.

"See you in the final then!"

Sawamura Eijun said flatly.

Contrary to what Sanada thought, Sawamura Eijun didn't think he was unlucky at all.

On the contrary, he also considers himself very lucky.

Before entering the workplace, Sawamura Eijun had a total of two remaining wishes.

One is to create the glory of Qingdao High School together with the friends.

Three in a row!

Four in a row! !

Five in a row! ! !

On the road of Koshien's domination, he has only just walked halfway.

He is still far from his ultimate goal.

In addition to this grand goal, Sawamura Eijun has another wish.

That is to play against more powerful players.

In this summer competition, you can meet Daocheng and the pharmacist one after another!

Really lucky.

He was really scared, because Qingdao High School was the first seed, and they would never meet a formidable opponent along the way.

In the end, he won the final.

Then I met a disabled pharmacist, Daocheng, or Shida!

Then it's no fun...

Sawamura Eijun thinks so, but this does not mean that the friends of the Qingdo High School baseball team think so.

Among the players, there are still many people who have other ideas.

They don't mind lying down to win the finals at all. If they can lie down and win, enter Koshien, or even dominate the country.

That's even more perfect!

"Your hand in drawing lots is too stinky!"

In the No. 5 dormitory, Kuramochi Yoichi is teaching Sawamura, the education of love between seniors and juniors.

After more than a year of adaptation, the current Sawamura Eijun is not powerless to fight back.

He explained while walking around with his flexible body.

"Isn't it great to be able to play against such a strong opponent..."

"You said it!"

The reason why Kuramochi was so angry was just to vent his dissatisfaction.

The Qingdao High School baseball team was the first seed, and no matter how they were grouped, the result could not be too bad.

It is almost impossible to encounter the situation of consecutive confrontation with the three giants.

In this case, Qing Dao was reluctant to meet Daocheng in advance. In the four groups, the probability that the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team is divided into the Qingdao High School baseball team is 1/4.

Even so, the situation is not the worst.

The worst case scenario is that Daocheng is assigned to Group B.

The semi-finals and finals are linked together.

In this way, the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team had to be on the second day after the game against Daocheng.

Directly face the third high school of the city, or the pharmacist high school.

Originally, the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team had at least a 50-60% certainty that they would be able to enter Jiaziyuan smoothly.

But such a grouping reduces the probability of their promotion by 20% all of a sudden.

This was naturally very depressing for Kuramochi, who was already in the third grade.

Although he also knew very well that this group had nothing to do with Sawamura Eijun.

Sawamura didn't even play the lottery!

But he still got angry. Once people get angry, they will naturally feel bad. If you are in a bad mood, you need to find someone to solve it.

For a single dog without a girlfriend, all he can find is his brothers and friends.

Considering that finding Miyuki's troubles would not take any advantage, Kuramochi could only aim his kind fist at Sawamura.

Eijun Sawamura couldn't bear Kuramochi's way of expressing kindness.

Once this guy starts to rage, he is simply a non-human being.

He can still slip away.

It is not just the positions that are stimulated by this grouping.

All the groups of Qingdao High School baseball team from beginning to end, it seems that luck is not particularly good.

Last summer, last fall, including the spring competition, the Kanto Conference…

As long as it is a competition that can be remembered, none of the Qingdao High School divisions are won.

It is said that some team members have suggested to Minister Ota whether to find a temple to do the math.

Otherwise, how could their score picks be so bad in a row.

"We have been winning the championship all the time, so it seems not good to go to fortune-telling like this!"

Minister Ota was very hesitant about this.

Minister Ota still believes in these theories of Feng Shui and Qi Yun.

It's just that he feels that the Qingdao High School baseball team can win consecutive championships now, and it is also due to luck.

I really have to find a master to do the math, won't they crack their luck?

The groups are all down, and it's still such a bad situation.

A lot of people were stimulated, they thought they had to work harder so they could help the team through the crisis.

But more people are not in the mood to care about these now.

This is mainly because of the main roster of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

It has never been announced!

In other words, I still don't know the 20 people, which 20 are they?

In the evening of the same day, the players received an order to urgently gather.

At this point, everyone already has a number in their hearts.

To be able to gather everyone together at this time has nothing but one purpose.

That's the announcement of the back number!

At the same time, it is also to determine the roster of 20 people.

Before the roster was announced, the players were nervous.

Especially those players who are not sure if they can win the main back, and whether they can stay in the first army.

They are several times more nervous than others.

After a while, Kataoka Supervisor, Ota Minister, Ochiai Coach, and Takashima Rei Vice Minister.

The four giants of the Qingdo High School baseball club came to everyone.

Along came two third-year team managers.

In their hands, holding number bibs.

"After consultation with our coaching staff, the roster was finally finalized. The players whose names are called next, come forward to receive your back numbers."

Surprisingly, the process is extremely simple.

But who knows, in order to be able to hear his name from the mouth of Director Kataoka.

How much effort did the players below him put in?

Although the vast majority of people have already expected the result.

But in the moments before Kataoka's announcement, they would still be nervous.

"No. 1, the main pitcher, Eijun Sawamura!"

It is said that this is the most uncontroversial back number. All the players of the Qingdao High School baseball team sincerely applauded.

Eijun Sawamura deserved this back number.

Sawamura himself felt it for granted.

Although Xiaogu Xiao launched a number of charges against him during this time.

But that kind of charge was still very immature, and it wasn't enough to shake Sawamura's position.

Supervisor Kataoka looked at Sawamura, who came to pick up the back, but there was a trace of complicated emotions in his eyes.

In fact, just last night, someone discussed with him for nearly 20 minutes, and that person put forward a very heart-warming suggestion for Kataoka to supervise.

"Why don't you give No. 1 to Jiang Gu Xiao!"

Before the semifinals, Sawamura Eijun was not allowed to play at all.

Wait until the semi-finals, let Sawamura kill Daocheng Industry with one blow.

During the lottery at Qingdao High School, the dead end we faced was resolved like this...

This suggestion does not seem to be a bad idea, for the chances of winning the Qingdo High School baseball team.

Also very helpful.

But in the end, Director Kataoka did not agree.

"Only he can carry this number. It belongs to Sawamura, and he won it on his own strength."

In the end, Supervisor Kataoka stuck to his principles.

Not impressed by that enticing proposal.

"Number two, catcher, Miyuki Ichiya!"

Like Sawamura Eijun's position, Miyuki's position is also unshakable.

Despite three first-year catchers, the performance was excellent.

But Miyuki is still second to none on the Qingdo High School baseball team.

Those three catchers, more or less, are still a little immature.

Not yet qualified to compete with him for the main catcher position.

As for the future, Miyuki will retire in the future. Even if they have that thought in their hearts, they have nowhere to use it.

"Number Three, First Baseman, Front Yard!"

To be honest, the position of the front garden is not stable.

The coaching staff argued about this matter for nearly half an hour.

There are two main competitors for him, one is the third-year strong hit Yamaguchi, and the other is the first-year rookie Yuuki Masashi.

These two are very distinctive, and they also pose no small threat to the front garden.

But in the end, the front garden is better.

There is also a very important reason for this, which is the role of the front garden on the field.

He can bring the momentum of the team!

This is completely absent from his two competitors.

So in the end he overpowered the two and became the main first baseman of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

"No. 4, second baseman, Kominato Haruichi!"

Although Kishima's growth has been very rapid during this period, compared with the demon brother, it is inferior in all aspects.

In the end, Kominato came out on top and became the team's main second baseman.

"No. 5, third baseman, Kanemaru!"

This is probably the most surprising, since Jin Maru's previous performance has not been particularly eye-catching. But nothing has ever fallen.

There are many people competing for the third baseman position, but none of them are really good.

In the end, the big one was chosen, and the main third baseman, Jin Maru, was freshly released.

Being able to win the main back number, Jin Maru looks more excited than anyone else.

When the whole person walked down, his body was floating.

"Number 6, shortstop, Yoichi Kuramochi."

A choice without suspense.

Now in this Qingdao high school baseball team, there are three players in total who really say that there is no suspense.

These three are Sawamura, Miyuki and Kuramochi.

"Hip-hop!"

Despite this, he still seems very happy to be able to get the back number.

"Number seven, left fielder, Aso!"

In the competition for the outfield, Supervisor Kataoka finally chose Aso, who had a fast return speed.

He doesn't have an overwhelming advantage in outfield either, though.

But in several practice games, there were no particularly big baskets.

Coupled with the position of left fielder, the probability of rotation is relatively high, and there must be a person who can keep fighting spirit at all times.

Therefore, Aso became the most suitable candidate.

"No. 8, the backbone, Hideaki Tojo!"

"No. 9, right fielder, Baizhou!"

The nine main players were not much different from the Kanto Conference.

During this period of time, although several new students made a lot of noise.

But the impact on the Qingdao High School baseball team was not as big as everyone imagined.

Among the nine main lineups, they didn't even win a seat.

Next is the bench. There are also many people on the bench, and there is no suspense.

For example.

No. 10, Kawakami!

On the 11th, Xiao Gu Xiao!

No. 12, Ono!

Don't think of these three as substitutes, their status is also not something that freshmen can shake.

The stability of their position can be seen from their back numbers.

The players didn't pay attention to these either, they had guessed many names before.

No. 13, Yamaguchi!

No. 14, Kishima!

On the 15th, Hiritsu!

The main substitutes are all strong players in the third grade.

It has been announced here, and it has nothing to do with the freshman.

It seems that the status of the new student is quite precarious.

Could it be that Kataoka supervised him in the end, he couldn't escape the general routine, and he planned to form a team based on the old students?

"Number 16, General Yuuki!"

Just when the freshmen are a little uneasy. Supervisor Kataoka announced five newcomers in a row.

"No. 17, Okumura Koshu!"

"Number 18, Wang Xi!"

The first 18 people can almost be regarded as the lineup of Koshien.

The remaining two are No. 19 Chen Ping and No. 20 Yu Jing.

Third grade Mimura, Shimada, Tate Michi, second grade Takatsu, first grade Matsumoto, Hirota.

These six players who participated in the first army camp were eliminated.
