Chapter 47 60 vs Qingdao 6
"Yuyuki, isn't that little boss a bit strange?" Kuramochi put on new shoes and walked to the field with new striking gloves: "But the stuff is really good, but I've never heard of the YS brand."

As he spoke, he sniffed the gloves again: "I hope it really doesn't stink."

Miyuki was carrying the newly bought crotch protector... He felt that he had also been deceived - the legendary crotch protector that does not hurt when beating eggs...

You must know that although the crotch protector is really a magic weapon, it is for fielders who "face the enemy head-on", and it is more effective for catchers than that.

There is nothing wrong with certain angles being able to protect a little bit, but it can only slightly block the frontal impact. That part is too fragile, even with various crotch protectors, it is still very painful.

More importantly... because of the catcher's squatting posture, the exposed part... the crotch guard will definitely not be able to protect it in all directions. Once it hits the egg... hiss! !
OK!OK! !

However, the crotch protector in this store is indeed different, which is the main reason why he bought it after a few words.

The range is larger, but the material is not hard, but a bit soft, a bit like silicone material, but not exactly~
Greater protection without compromising activities?This is the sales pitch of the little boss.

Cangchi didn't get the jumping thinking of his own catcher, and he was still talking about it: "But they only have one or two metal rods. If there are as many as wooden rods, I must buy a beautiful one."

Hearing this, Miyuki smiled and said, "The new one is the wooden stick."

"Ah, I can play quite well. I played very well in the last test."

"I'm in another group today, go see if Gu Mo's list is out."

……

"Yuichiro is the best." Maria seems to be a lively and talkative character, but in fact her personality is very decisive. Without definite proof, neither Kotaro nor Shen Yuan can change his decision.

This is also the first time that the Gumo baseball team entered the small meeting room of the stadium and held their first pre-match meeting.

Although there is usually no such process in normal competitions, it is the first time, so it is still a formality.

Shen Yuan and Shen Yao sat at the back. According to Maria's roll call, they called up the data of Yuichiro's last intra-team match: "The striking mechanism is very gentle, the body is soft, and the swing quality is good, but the strength is relatively lacking. . Although there is insufficient sample support, it seems to be very flexible. I heard that I still played center bats in the Little League period."

"The Little League period is not important." Shen Yao clicked his tongue: "What kind of long hitting ability can he have with his height and weight now? It's okay to put it in the first bat. Maria gave him the Little League period before. The data, the hit rate of the point circle is very high, in fact, it can be placed behind us. In short, the current arrangement is not bad."

Shen Yuan was puzzled: "Do they have statistics on hitting percentage?" They probably haven't in this year.

"I figured it out by myself." Shen Yao rubbed his face and yawned as he spoke, "I don't think he should guard third base. It's still a matter of strength. Many balls that can be defended will be given to him because of this." Opportunities for others to hit base.”

"That's right, but there's no need to change it for the time being. We'll see after the fight this time. It's best to replace it with Liansi. But now we've said that others won't accept it. Let's talk about it later."

Shen Yao thought for a while: "Otherwise I'll go to third base?"

"Tsk, who do you want to go to second base with me? Not at this age."

He's talking about age, not about skills, basic skills, and the like.If you just pull a player out to listen to it, you'll probably laugh your ass off.

But Shen Yao understands it very well. This is incredible to say. Perhaps we can use the analogy of those arithmetic masters. Age and peak are linked.

As we all know, the sports life of baseball players is definitely long among all kinds of athletes.

Some are healthier, and there is no problem at all until they are in their 40s.If you don't care about salary, maybe you can play longer.

But the career life here refers to blows!Just means hit.

Some people may say that many pitchers also pitch into their 40s.

That's right, being in his 40s and being in his prime are two different things.He's just in his 40s and still on the mound.But the ball speed will definitely decline, and still being able to shoot is just relying on health and years of experience to make up for the lack of ball speed.Of course, it is also very important that most injuries can be healed by surgical rehabilitation, and even ligaments can be reconstructed and transplanted.

And put it on the batter side.Thanks to the designated hitting system of DH, when players are getting older and their defense has declined, they can still go to full-time hitting.It doesn't matter if you run slowly, as long as you can hit the stick, no matter how old you are, you still have a chance, and even if you just look at the hitting data, it is almost the same as the peak.

But if it refers to defense, it is definitely a different field.

Major League Baseball is undoubtedly the top professional baseball league in the world, but is it really the best in everything?
No, at least not defensively.

It’s true that there are many aesthetic techniques, and it’s true that the handling is beautiful, but these are linked to experience, data, and ability to predict.

Judgment and movement in advance include reaction, starting speed and path. If the previous one is done well, it will save a lot of time, so just looking at the result is absolutely beautiful. (The previous two books have mentioned about jump data, so I won’t go into details here.)
But when it comes to true defensive excellence, players in the major leagues are worse than those in lower-level leagues.

No other, purely because of age.

The human body always goes through similar stages, development → peak → aging.

Facing the same ball, the same player with the same handling and at different ages can achieve different effects.

When they are not fully developed, the lack of height, strength, and experience makes it difficult for them to be perfect.

But between the ages of 20 and 25, through physical development, experience gained in professional competitions, and a keen and flexible brain, the judgment is more accurate, and the body's response can keep up with the instantaneous judgment of the brain, so the defense can reach peak.

Then when you get older, both mental and physical fitness will decline in an all-round way. The difference between people is nothing more than the speed of decline.The major league is a place that takes a long time to develop. There are relatively few players there who are young in terms of age, so the overall statistics of defense are lower than those of the minor leagues.Of course, there are many pensioners at the 3A level, which is not included in the calculation. (It will be explained in detail later, so I won’t mention it here)
This is what Shen Yuan said, the reason why Yuichiro's poor defense is not old enough at present.

As for the excellent basic skills of the players in Rishima, he never worried about it. Excluding talent, the sweat and time spent by the players are their best proof.
