Of the seven main players, all other positions are theoretically opportunities, not to mention the second team.
These seniors have trained so hard, why would they want to give up their position?
Don't think that this group of people is very self-aware. Even when Tanba-san was first taken away from the ace card, there were sophomores who wanted to replace it.
No matter what, at least the commotion was completely calmed down because of Tanba-san's words.
There is no training after dinner, and it is basically all independent practice. Group training lasts until the training camp in the evening. If you keep practicing like this, you will probably have to go to the hospital before the game.
Sendou's independent practice was all about hiding in the dormitory and reading comics, anime, novels, etc. Jun-san received a particularly interesting girl manga and was planning to go back and study hard.
This is how it should be...
At least that's what Sendou thought before he left the cafeteria...
Until he left the cafeteria after finishing his meal, he saw Coach Kataoka blocking the door of the cafeteria, looking at the door of the cafeteria with a serious face...
At first Sendou thought he was going to discuss some tactics with some senior.
After all, the Catchers are often involved in these discussions.
So Sendou shook his head and planned to go back to the dormitory...
"Where are you going?"
"...
Huh? "
Sendou, who had just taken a step, was silent for a moment, and suddenly thought that he was alone at the door, right?
"Me?" So Sendou stretched out his left hand and pointed at himself.
"Yeah! Go for a run with me, and I'll watch you run!"
"..."
"Um..., k (the beginning pronunciation of sunglasses)..., no, supervisor, there should be no training at night, right?" Someone tried to save himself, but stopped even calling Sunglasses Uncle.
"That's right!" Coach Kataoka's eyebrows twitched a little, but he still admitted that he didn't train at night.
"Then...!"
"But..., you need to make up for your laziness during the day."
Coach Kataoka will not admit that he turned a blind eye to Sendou's laziness before.
Then we can't say that you went too far today and I need to punish you.
So Coach Kataoka's reason is to tell Sendou that I caught you slacking off, so you have to be punished.
This will not dampen Sendou's motivation to be lazy...
As a coach, there are still many ways to deal with this kid.
"Hi~!" Sendou looked frustrated and nodded helplessly.
"Oh! Shoujo manga!
I'll pamper you again when I get back! "Sendou can only entertain himself like this in his heart.
Coach Kataoka kept his word. Normally he should be at Supervisor's Room at this time, but he was watching Sendou running from the sidelines!
If you run more long-distance running, you won't be exhausted easily. But Sendou doesn't know why. His body's lower body is extremely stable, so running can only help him to a limited extent.
Because of the physical fitness gained through sprinting, for baseball, which is mostly anaerobic exercise, the most helpful thing is to strengthen posture.
Otherwise, even if Coach Kataoka is worried that Sendou will be injured, Sendou will run to death. Because it is of little help, he will really ignore this. Use his physical strength to train attack and defense!
Sprinting will give you a blast.
When you look at Summer Training Camp, you will know that sprinting is what pitchers practice the most. What do pitchers practice to rush the bases?
Doesn't it help them improve their explosive power and ball speed?
If a pitcher needs to practice base rushing, professional teams won't be so precious as to arrange special pinch-hitters and special pinch-runners for the pitcher.
Moreover, professional rules also tend to arrange for pitchers to be substitutes. Pitchers do not need to participate in fielding and can continue to play. (Normally, if you are substituted, you cannot pitch. However, in the plot, the high school does not seem to have such a rule. If you are substituted, you cannot pitch.)
This shows that Japan has begun to accept the scientific baseball theory proposed by American kinesiology experts.
Improving explosive power and improving muscle strength throughout the body are the key points.
Of course, the pitcher's base is also very important.
Sendou ran under the death glare of Coach Kataoka, and Sendou would sprint from time to time.
Before I knew it, it was completely dark, and Coach Kataoka finally called a halt.
Someone feels like half of his life is gone...
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"
"What's wrong? Just this little exercise isn't enough?"
In fact, Coach Kataoka was carefully estimating the safety value to prevent him from being injured, while Sendou was already too tired to speak.
After finishing speaking, Coach Kataoka stepped forward to help Sendou recover.
"Okay, come on, come take a shower with me!"
"???"
Sendou looked confused.
"It's not enough to torture me. You even want me to look at your scary expression while taking a shower?"
Of course, Sendou would definitely not dare to say this as a joke or joke.
In fact, there were still people in the bathroom when the two of them arrived, but as soon as they saw the coach coming in, the group of people who had almost finished washing and wanted to hang out for a while and have a good rest basically ran away one after another!
Maybe the coach also knows his deterrence and takes a shower very late every day. Sendou is still aware of this.
He went there quite late before chatting with Pudding-senpai, who was practicing extra, so the two of them often washed together.
It's actually not that scary, it's just that I feel weird wearing sunglasses in the shower and my face looks scary.
I'm afraid Sendou is the only one in the team who thinks so.
But with the presence of this big boss, the bathhouse is equivalent to a private bath.
I don't like the crowded Sendou, but I think it's still pretty good.
In the bathhouse, Coach Kataoka was sitting upright, while Sendou was lying beside the pool in boredom...
"Sendou!" Coach Kataoka unexpectedly chatted with Sendou.
"Huh? What's wrong? Sunglasses Uncle!"
"Do you like baseball?" Coach Kataoka is used to this nickname, but if he calls it by another person, he will still get angry...
"Well..., you can't say you like it or you don't like it, right?
Ordinary... feeling? "Sendou thought and answered slowly!
"Souga! So, are you happy playing baseball? Or are you happy playing the game?"
"Well..." Sendou looked at the ceiling!
"It's quite interesting!... When the bat and ball come into contact, the feeling on your hands is great!"
"Hmph! (Smile) The farther away the blow, the better the touch. Is that why you pursue Long Hit so much?"
After Sendou heard Coach Kataoka's words, he tilted his head slightly and looked at him from the corner of his eye.
When Coach Kataoka saw Coach Kataoka smiling, Sendou wondered if he had seen it wrong.
"Na! Sunglasses Uncle!"
"Huh?"
"Are you not very good at teaching others techniques?" Sendou's question was very bold.
"What do you mean?"
"It's..., that..., according to each person's characteristics, teach them the techniques suitable for them, that is, the trainer's... feeling?" Sendou's vocabulary organization was not very good at the moment, but Coach Kataoka understood it.
"Well! After all, uncle is still young, so it's impossible for him to know all the skills.
Not to mention, coaching techniques based on physical characteristics. "
However, Coach Kataoka said nothing and seemed to be thinking about something.
"Damn it! Are you kidding me? I'm in the first grade too!
Why am I the only one who doesn't know?
That bastard with sunglasses must have forgotten that I exist! "At this time, a voice interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Ara!" Sendou heard Sawamura's voice outside the door and looked at Coach Kataoka with a strange expression!
Coach Kataoka's meditation has also been interrupted, and his expression is a bit indescribable...
"After all, why is that Sunglasses Uncle wearing sunglasses? Is he a gangster?"
"Wow!" The bathroom door was opened, and Sendou could already see Sawamura stepping forward with one foot.
"Are you trying to scare the opponent's players half to death with your face?..."
Sawamura said this.
As soon as I turned right, I saw Sendou covering her mouth and snickering, and Coach Kataoka with a towel on her head and a serious look on her face.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
What a girly scream!
"Puff puff puff!" Sendou couldn't bear it anymore!
Coach Kataoka glanced sideways at Sendou and returned to his original expression, as if the person who was smiling just now was not him.
"Why... why is Sunglasses Uncle here at this time!
Obviously everyone has finished washing, but I was the last one to come...
Been heard... definitely been heard!
Someone come and kill me! "Sawamura, who was holding on to the wall and about to sit down, collapsed.
Sawamura, who was completely immersed in his own heart and couldn't hear anything, even forgot that there was someone next to Coach Kataoka.
"Sorry... I'm sorry!" Sawamura also entered the bath after washing his hair and body.
Hiding in the corner of the bathtub, I was already crying!
"..." There was silence in the bathroom!
Sawamura complained about Coach Kataoka's glasses, feeling that taking a bath to relieve fatigue had no effect.
"Hey!"
Coach Kataoka This sound made Sawamura tremble all over.
"How many days have you been dragging Tire running?"
"Three... three weeks, right?"
Sendou, who is familiar with Sawamura's character, guesses that this guy must be complaining about Coach Kataoka in his heart.
"I'm about to increase Tire to four, my growth is really scary! Hahahahaha!"
"Obviously we only added three today, and they were still dragged away." Sendou complained silently!
"Hmph..., when I was on active duty, I was pulling the truck Tire!"
"Truck?"
"Hey, hey! I dragged him away too." He gave Coach Kataoka a slot with his backhand.
Of course he didn't dare to say it. (You are such a clever little guy!
Sendou: Please ask me to complain about the little prince.)
Then Coach Kataoka started asking him why he didn't come to the game.
But Sawamura was covered in cold sweat, thinking that Coach Kataoka was angry, and was worried about what to do if he was disliked!
Under the coach's questioning, Sawamura said a classic passage, and Coach Kataoka also knew what the team lacked.
"Hmph! Haha! Hahahahaha!" Coach Kataoka stood up suddenly.
"Kid!... This determination is like an excellent trump card."
"This is...! I said it!" Sawamura looked at the naked coach with his mouth wide open and didn't know what to say.
That angle... is hard to describe in words!
"Come on the field tomorrow with your gloves on!"
"Huh?"
"For the sake of your honest answer, I will give you another chance."
Sawamura looked at the back of Coach Kataoka leaving and didn't know what to say!
"When the opportunity comes, you should seize it! Eijun!" At this time, Sendou, who had a very low sense of presence, spoke.
"Huh? Ah!!!
Sendou! When did you come? "
"I've always been here! I came with that Sunglasses Uncle..."
"You mean...?"
"Haha! Eijun! Sure enough, your courage is as bold as ever!"
"Are you bigger? I almost thought I was going to die! And you didn't even remind me!"
"How should I remind you?"
"That...!" Well, this question is too difficult, and Sawamura doesn't know it either.
"It's been more than a month, and the opportunity finally came!
Don't let the opportunity slip away, come on!..." Sendou patted Sawamura on the shoulder and said to him seriously.
"I know!
I will definitely be promoted to First Team, wait for me, Sendou! "
"First Team It's too early for you!
Don't worry, watch your feet! "With that said, Sendou also left!
"Shoujo manga! I'm back!
You have been waiting for a long time! "And Sendou is thinking about this...
But today, all the bad luck happened together.
When Sendou returned to the room, Tanba-san was also there, seeming to be talking to Miyauchi-senpai.
Second grader Watanabe-senpai was not here, so for a while, Sendou was too embarrassed to read comics!
I can only silently say sorry to the comics.
"Hey! Sendou!" At this time, Tanba-san took the initiative to talk to Sendou!
Although Sendou and Miyuki have similar personalities, no one knows how to deal with Miyuki, but everyone trusts him in Sendou. The contrast is extremely big.
It is absolutely impossible for the introverted Tanba to take the initiative to talk to Miyuki, but it is very easy for Sendou.
"What's wrong? Tanba-san?"
"I'll go to Indoor Practice Field with Miyauchi later. You don't seem too busy. Can you please stand on Batter's Box?
I want to make some adjustments for tomorrow's game! "
"Of course! I have nothing to do anyway!"
"Thank you!"
"Hmph!" Miyauchi-senpai snorted through his nose!
"I know First Team's practice is already very hard for you! But if you have time in the evening, it would be better to watch other seniors practice!" Miyauchi-senpai also expressed his goodwill.
"Well, I know! However, I've been feeling a little down lately, so let me get used to it for a while!"
After saying that, several people walked towards Indoor Practice Field.
"There is a game tomorrow. If you are in good condition, it is better to try to shoot as few shots as possible after you find the condition! Tanba-san!" As soon as he entered Practice Field, Sendou put forward his own suggestions to Tanba.
"Yeah!"
"There are more right-handed hitters in first grade, so I'll stand on the right side too!
Tanba-san's curveball is just like a magic ball. I want to stand on Batter's Box and take a look! "
"Then please!"
"Little things!"
"Don't you think we are childish? Are you preparing so seriously for a competition with the first graders?" Miyauchi-senpai looked at such a gentle Sendou and couldn't help but ask.
"Not at all!"
"Huh?"
"This is also an opportunity! It has nothing to do with the school year. There are only seven main players of Kanto Tournament who will take a break tomorrow to prepare for the game, which means that the remaining eleven will all have to watch tomorrow's game, right?" Sendou said seriously to the two seniors.
Yoxi, it's done in the first update.
I'm going to start adjusting my schedule and try to fall asleep around twelve o'clock, so good night and please vote for me.
