The original intention of the diamond ace

In the next two days, the freshmen are still doing various ability tests: fielding, hitting, base running, long-range shooting...

I didn't expect the test content to be so detailed, it's quite professional.

"Assistant, can I test a few more items, I want to see if I am more suitable for that position."

"Oh, yes, you go to the queue first, I'll write your name down, what's your name?"

"Oda Kazu."

"Okay, let's go."

"Thank you."

Alas, it is still very difficult to keep up with all kinds of attacking balls on the field. Sure enough, the grades in high school before and now are still different, and it is impossible to be a shortstop.

The strike is okay, but compared with the previous life, there is still a gap, so I can only practice slowly.

Running the bases is actually okay, but that Takuma Seto is too fast, cut.

What comforts me the most is the long-range shot, which is 120. I remember that the first time I tested this, I didn’t have this score.Sure enough, the most suitable pitcher in this life is still, but there are two reliable pitchers in the second grade, and it is estimated that I will play as an outfielder most of the time.Outfielder, haven't tried it yet, maybe it's interesting?

After these days, the freshmen mainly focus on physical training, not to mention playing baseball, and they have never seen the shadow of the ball.

"First grade, go to B playground for physical training, first go around the playground ten times."

"Why is it a long-distance running again?" Many people complained in a low voice, and I couldn't help but sigh.

Although I know that more physical training now is to adapt to the high-intensity competitions in the future, and it can also reduce the chance of injury.But running for so many days, is this a track and field club?

"Why are you again!"

"Don't speed up on your own!"

I glanced at it, and sure enough, it was Yuki and Yui again, followed by that Okumura, and then Seto who had been with him all the time.Ha, you guessed it.

"Afterwards, there will be the Spring Competition. Those who want to cheer should pack up quickly."

Contest?Ah, it should be the spring competition that Senior Tojo mentioned, compared with Yongyuan?

"Pong!" Oh, one blow is better.

Eh! !No, a front hit to left field can go to second base.

His speed scares me every time.

"Bang!"

"Oh! The first base runner is back, Minato-senpai's hit is really powerful."

The little guy Erbang's blow was unexpectedly good, was it so powerful before?

I squinted my eyes and thought for a moment, but couldn't remember.

"A two-run home run to the home run wall! A hit from the lead!!" This is the catcher, and he lives up to his name.

Oh, the pitcher has changed, not that Sawamura-senpai.

Low-shoulder side shots are quite rare, and the ball control is pretty good, but there are too many pitchers in Qingdao, is it worthy of a famous school? It is completely different from me.

I remember that there was only one pitcher on the team, and when it was time to rotate, it was the fielder who pitched. The surrounding schools were also like us. I thought everyone was like this.

In the end, it’s Sawamura-senpai. Compared with the Jingu competition, it’s improved. What kind of training did this team do during the holidays? They’ve improved too much. If I’m not lazy, I really can’t keep up with their progress.

Oh, strikeouts, easy wins, the difference between high school and high school is huge.

"First grade to B playground..."

"For physical training, first go around the playground ten times."

"For physical training, first warm up for ten laps."

I imitated the teaching assistant's tone and continued.

Another boring and long day of track and field training.Complaining secretly in my heart, I didn't notice the two figures on the edge of the playground.

"Although this period of time is used for physical exercise, it still exists. Those outstanding people..." Ochiai stroked his beard, "Oh, what about that person? Oh, there. I Remember that he is physically able to keep up with the people in front of him."

Coach Kataoka stared at the tall figure in the middle of the team for a while, then turned his head and left.

In the office, there is a video of Daoshi talking to the pharmacist on the TV.

"Cheng Gongming, his degree of completion is indeed at the top level in the country."

………Supervisor Kataoka quietly looked at the pitcher in the video.

"It's time to decide, the last two." He said and took out a piece of paper and put it on the table.

'Shoji Yuuki, Kaoru Yui, Kazuo Oda, Misune Okumura, Kota Kagami, Takuma Seto'

The next day, B playground.

"Yuki... Seto Takuma, the six of you are now going to the A playground for strike practice."

Ah! The opportunity came, and I had to perform well in the future. I smiled and followed the other five people to the A playground.

"Pong!" Yuki swept the ball over the block.My eyes lit up a little, the striking posture is very good, and the strength is also great.

After that, Yui also hit the ball to the back of the court at once. How can such a small person have such great strength? It's really powerful, but I'm not weak.

Stand calmly on the strike zone, swing the bat with one hand on the spot, then set up and stand still, staring at the feeder closely, uh, Senior Tojo?

At this time, there were many reporters and surrounding residents standing outside the stadium.

"Who is that, the posture for the ball is very good."

"I don't know, he looks like a foreigner?"

coming!High in the middle.

"Pong!" The ball quickly flew upside down and flew directly out of the court.I watched the trajectory of the ball happily, Tojo-senpai, you feed the ball really well.Home runs, ever since I entered the profession it's either strikeouts or catches—

However, I have hardly practiced strikes at ordinary times, and it is normal to not be able to strike, huh, huh.

"Oh, it flew straight out. It's very powerful. It's amazing, this freshman."

"He must have come from the United States. This hitting style, since the fly ball revolution, most people in the major leagues have become like this."

"Even foreigners are here, this year's Qingdao has a bumper harvest."

After hitting three pitches, I walked off the strike zone.

Three pitches, I hit a home run, a right-field drive, a center field drive.

Is Tojo-senpai angry?Except for the first ball, the other two are not so easy to play.But today's result is not bad. Although pulling and playing is still not very proficient, the practice these days is still very effective.

Then it was Seto Takuma's turn to strike.

The ball landed right between left fielder and center fielder.

Wow - this one goes right over the center field and is perfect for second base.With Seto's speed, there is no problem with third base. If it is not blocked, it is probably an infield home run.Are all high school students now so good?

Although the other four are not as strong as me and Yuki, their playing skills are still much better than mine.I don't have time to worry about a home run. I have to keep working hard. I hope I can become a starting outfielder as soon as possible.

"Ahahaha, I accept——!!" My thoughts were interrupted at once, and I turned my head to see Senior Sawamura who was excited for some reason, "I accept the challenge you initiated———!!"

Ah, challenge, what challenge, strike?

No, it shouldn't be you who said this in terms of combat strength!

…………

Soon the fourth game began.

This time, Senior Jiang Gu started. After the spring first season, the strength of the whole team has improved. The last round of the spring first season, the senior's pitching has really improved a lot. Let me see how far I am from you now. .

"Another four bad players. Today's player Jiang Gu is not in a good state."

No, this is not a matter of status, I thought silently in my heart.

The ball control is unstable, the ball is thrown with full force almost every time, and even the change of the fast fingering ball is not stable. Isn't this the same as before?Although it is said that the biggest weapon of a fastball pitcher is the speed and power of the ball, but this is the only thing that can't get along, senior.

But it's fortunate that Miyuki-senpai can catch such a random ball, not only for attacking and guiding the defense, but also for catching the ball.

I'm getting more and more interested in his dribbling, and I really want to try to cooperate with him once.

But I can't even get into the bench of the first army, my attack is still not good.If I knew this catcher was so interesting, I should have said that I wanted to be a pitcher, and my pitching could still make it into the first army.

After that, the line-up broke out, and Furuya-senpai's pitching also stabilized, and the game ended smoothly and early.
