Only then did Kōshū realize the weight of Senior Nanmu's words.
He was completely banned from participating in the team's fielding training, and he was not allowed to enter Bullpen. The only place he was allowed to enter was Equipment Training Room.
When passing by the playground, everyone was shouting, looking forward, and the tacit understanding between each other was growing visibly.
The only thing he won't do is to take his eyes away from the tense defense on the field and look at the person outside the blocker.
After standing quietly for a while, he quietly left.
Kōshū, who was placed out of sight of the team, suddenly felt that the entire team was moving forward rapidly, but he was left behind.
"Ochiai Coach." With an inexplicable mood, he walked to Equipment Room, where Ochiai was waiting.
"Well," Ochiai looked at the watch, "It's really exactly the same, and it just happened to arrive at the agreed time." '
"So today's task is still to focus on lower body exercise in the morning, and recovery training in the afternoon." Both of them are already familiar with this menu.
"Okay." So when the stadium became more and more lively, Kōshū was still training in Equipment Room, and Second String's people were also transferred away to assist First String in training. So now Kōshū almost has the entire training room to himself.
"One... two..."
Ochiai Coach, who was pinching his moustache next to him, realized that Kōshū's rhythm had become a bit faster today, "Let me tell you, the fact that he can't play really put pressure on him." '
"Ahem." Ochiai cleared his throat, preparing to say something to win over the team's ace.
But it was interrupted the next moment.
"Huh--" Kōshū stopped after finishing a group, "Seeing them on the field, I really want to join in..."
If I had informed the supervisor as soon as possible and checked it when I discovered it before, maybe the showdown with Senior Nozawa would not have been delayed. Now that Kōshū is completely isolated from the team's training, to a certain extent, it is a warning to him to delay the recovery of his injury.
"Eh?" Ochiai was a little confused by these words, and a drop of sweat appeared on his forehead, "What's going on?" Suddenly, tell the truth? '
"I will go back as soon as possible!" Kōshū muttered while starting the second group.
'I'm completely trapped in my inner world.. 'Ochiai felt that it was best for him to go out and see Eijun's situation at this time.
But what makes Kōshū even more uncomfortable is the line group.
Nozawa: How is it? The game is about to begin. Will your boy appear in the first game or later?
high:.. This depends on the supervision arrangements.
Nozawa: Young master is here. The senior wants to know when he can see his junior. Does this matter still need to be determined by the supervisor? winking. jpg
Gao: I really can't say...
Nozawa: Hi~ I understand. What this means is that they won't attack us first. According to your personality, if you were the starter, you would have said so with your tail raised! Therefore, the supervision of Seido still looks down on our newly established school!
"Tsk", Kōshū didn't expect that Senior Nozawa guessed it right.
Gao: So, why do I look like that to Senior Nozawa?
Nozawa: Hey, people will expose a lot of things when they are not on guard. I can still see your character very clearly.
Ido: Let's see, with our strength, in which game can we force you to play!
high:... Please show mercy!
What the two seniors don't know is that during the lottery ceremony, the juniors who were so sworn in won't be able to participate in this game.
"It's so irritating!" Winning or losing the game is secondary. Just like what senior Ido said, if the ace Seido doesn't play in the end, wouldn't it mean that he is completely looking down on Tachikawa Private? I have to apologize to the two seniors after the game.
But now - "Can't say, can't say, can't say."
The other party is the enemy in the first game and cannot reveal any information.
The group activities that Kōshū can participate in, besides running, are pre-match analysis.
I don't know since when, senior Watanabe took over the task of senior Chris and became a member of Seido's intelligence team.
"Tachikawa Private High School, starting from the past few years, has introduced famous professional baseball players as supervisors, and its performance in the regional conference has gradually improved in the past two years. This year's Summer Koshien Preliminaries, although it lost to Inami in the front, but Watching their video, the characteristics are very obvious. They have solid defense, hard training, and a good understanding of pitching and catching. And the key point is that their second-year ace Nozawa changed his pitching posture during the summer when they lost in the preliminaries."
The video on the TV was from a practice match a week ago. It was obviously recorded by a passerby.
"His pitching posture has been changed to Tornado Style, which has a faster release time and a longer time to hide the ball. Therefore, in the eyes of the hitter, the speed of the ball will become much faster. This is probably another option for Nozawa to seek to increase the ball speed in despair. The ball speed was originally around 140, but after changing the posture, it will visually increase to around 145."
"Tornado Style..." This is the pitching method of the Nomo player who competed in Major League. Many children are also affected by this pitching posture.
But the pitching posture is so important, and each pitcher may have different habits. If you imitate just because you like it, you will not be able to throw the ball well.
A recent lesson learned is Eijun.
"What's wrong? Why are everyone looking at me?" Eijun didn't know why.
"Maybe it's because both you and the ace have strange throwing postures."
"Bang bang", Watanabe tapped the TV twice, bringing everyone's attention back to the front, "After changing his pitching posture, his strikeout ability was significantly enhanced. In addition to a straight ball that looks about 145, he also has two ball types: Slider and finger fork. The matching ratio of the ball types cannot be determined due to insufficient game data, but what we can know is that the opponent's Decisive Ball is the finger fork."
The baseball hidden behind the back has been flying for a while by the time the batter can see the shadow of the ball.
From the moment he sees the ball until the ball flies past Home Plate, during this period of time, the hitter must react quickly and judge the type of ball, or simply guess and swing.
"Next is another player that needs attention, Ido, the four-bat and captain. He is very good at observing the batter's condition and can match the ball path that makes people miss. Nozawa trusts this catcher very much, so as soon as the pair of pitchers and catchers come on the field, the entire pitching rhythm will be very fast."
Kōshū recalled the tacit cooperation between the two seniors in the Little League days and nodded in agreement.
"The next step is the hitting aspect. Tachikawa Private has recruited a large number of baseball specialty students this spring after inviting famous baseball players to supervise them." Eyes began to turn to Kōshū. "After these players have experienced the training in the summer, I believe they will undergo transformation in the autumn. The variables in the process are unpredictable."
'Ah——West Tokyo What kind of baseball hell is this? Why are they all crowded in such a place? 'Ochiai Coach Counted it down, Koshien currently plays for the wealthy teams, including Seido, Inami, and Ichidai Third. At the same time, this summer there was such a weird thing as Pharmacist. Now tell him that there is a private college that may rise in recent years?
