King's Green Road

Chapter 14 Part14 training camp begins
The next day, when the sky was clear, the Qingdao High School baseball team ushered in the beginning of summer training.

However, the content of the training camp didn't seem to start right away. Even Jiang Guxiao, a scumbag of physical strength, could barely keep up with the usual amount of training.

At the beginning, it was a warm-up run of 20 laps and then a swing practice!

According to the rules of the Seido Baseball Club, each player must swing 200 times.

It can be seen that this swing practice is different from the usual swing.Members of the Second Army and Reserves who were not selected into the First Army to participate in the training will also come to help the players of the First Army to complete the training.

Most of them are responsible for feeding and picking up the ball to the hitters, as well as organizing the entire court and assisting in the fielding training.

In such a vigorous batting training, the sound of ping-pong-pong can be heard constantly, and the baseball can be seen being hit one ball after another.

This most basic feeding and hitting training is for Qingdao High School baseball players who are either four-ball or core players. Each of them is working hard to develop their own infinite possibilities, and they have gone through untold hardships. Just entered the first army.

Such a simple feeding and hitting practice, as a player in the first army, if they still miss such a feeding ball?It is really not worthy of the title of the first army.

However, among this group of hitters, there are still a few outstanding and amazing players, adding some different scenes to the scene.

At this time, in the hitting training area, Eijun stared at the second army pitcher who was feeding the ball, Sanji Muto, a senior in the second grade, with a serious face.

The pitcher of the Second Army Sanji Muto was very helpless and funny at this time.Do you need to be so serious?

Although Sawamura's attacking skills are not the most outstanding among the many players in the first army and the most gorgeous and shocking attack scenes, even in many games of the second army, he has never entered the core line.

However, the performance of the attack is also on the bright side, and after the guidance of Kataoka's supervisor, the level of attack has risen sharply.

He is also a player who can sometimes hit home runs with the aces of other schools at critical moments, and his hitting power is obvious to all.

But does Sawamura-senpai need to be so serious about such a simple strike practice?It feels like going to war.

"I voted, Sawamura!"

"Yeah, Muto-senpai, just come here, I will hit your ball."

Sawamura's expression and words still made Muto Sanji, who was feeding the ball, start to face it seriously, and even he became cautious.

Then he threw the baseball in his hand according to his pitching habits.

I saw Rongchun standing on the strike zone in a good posture, and swung the bat in his hand heavily...

"Buzz!" The bat hummed under such a vigorous swing, which shows that the strength used is really great.

When there were still a few centimeters away from the flying baseball, the bat and the baseball came into close contact, and flew out with an indomitable momentum!
Then, in the eyes of all the stunned people present, the baseball was not hit by a home run, but was inadvertently caught by Jun Isashiki, who was doing defensive practice on the field.The two people in the strike zone were also silent for a moment.

"Hahaha, it's not a coincidence, it doesn't matter, the next ball will be better." Sanji Muto also sent encouragement from his senior, isn't it a coincidence, isn't it because he has a relationship with Senior Isashiki?

At this time, Jun Isashiki was also surprised. Isn't the right field linked with the first and second bases?How did you fly to center left field?

"Yeah, I understand, let's play another ball! Senior." After speaking, he put on his posture again.

But then I don't know if Eijun and Isashiki Jun are too destined, the next ball is hit by Eijun who is in the joint practice of catching the ball.

I still didn't pay much attention to this ball, and Jun Isashiki, who was the party involved in the accident, didn't care too much either. Accidents must be normal.

But the next two goals hit Isashiki Jun who was practicing again like an appointment, and Isashiki broke out. . .

The players who were practicing defense and the two people in the strike zone also felt that something big was about to happen.

As if a flock of embarrassing crows flew by, the entire defensive training field of Seidou High School became silent, especially Sanji Muto, who was in the strike area of ​​Eijun, already felt the anger from his seniors.

"Which bastard played the ball! Get out of here, see if I don't deal with you!!!"

Isashiki Jun's loud voice also spread throughout the field in the outfield.The thick threat in the words is also full.

Eijun was as quiet as a chicken at this time, knowing from the bottom of his heart that this was not something he could bear, and looked at Sanji Muto for help with his round and wet eyes.

Under such a pitiful eye attack, Muto Sanji also felt that the junior was pitiful, and couldn't bear Isashiki Jun's anger from the senior, so he chose to shut up quietly.

After Isashiki Jun couldn't get the answer, he could only shout alone in the outfield, claiming that if he caught him, he must show him a good look.

In the next swing practice, except for these few accidents, the other baseballs in the swing were either home runs that flew out of the field, or outfield-level Changan hits, and only a few others were caught. kill the ball.

Under Eijun's carefulness, he finally didn't go to Isashiki Jun's body again, and both of them in the strike zone were relieved, which is great.

The other well-informed players in the strike zone didn't have much to say, after all, they weren't all spectators like Kuramochi Yoichi and Miyuki.

But when I saw Eijun's swing, I was still amazed at his hitting level. I really can't see that this guy Sawamura has this level. Except for the few shots that flew to Isashiki Jun, but his hitting level is also there. , is a bit funny.

The players of the first army were particularly surprised. After all, Sawamura had accumulated experience in practice games with the second army some time ago, and he didn't have a very intuitive feeling.

The players of the Second Army are very calm. After all, they have played together and know each other very well.So I wasn't too surprised. The first-year who was selected by Supervisor Kataoka as a first-year army didn't have any skills.

After training in the morning, I went to the cafeteria to eat. As a student, the most important thing is to go to class. I can't let the cultural class be left behind because of playing baseball.

On the way back to the school building for class, Sawamura, Akatsuki Furutani, and Kominato Harushi, three first-year students, naturally got together because they were the only three selected for the first army, and the outgoing and cheerful Sawamura was the main one.

"Rong Chun-jun, this is a co-studio, doesn't it feel terrible?"

Kominato Haruichi's tone was extremely puzzled.Listening to the tone and revealing words of his brother and his dormitory-senpai, he thought that this co-squat was some kind of hell trip.Now it seems that is not the case at all.It's no different from normal training.

The cute and cold Jiang Guxiao beside him also nodded silently, expressing his agreement.

As someone who has been there, Eijun subconsciously broke out in a cold sweat after hearing Kominato Haruichi's disapproving words, how could it be so simple.

Although he has entered the stage of summer training from today, he still doesn't want to think about this experience, it's extremely scary! ! !

Looking back and forth at the innocent and ignorant Jiang Guxiao and Kominato Haruichi on both sides, Rong Chun really doesn't know if ignorance is bliss? !

As a friend, Eijun really wanted to remind Haruichi Kominato and Akatsuki Fuguya a few words, but there was no basis for that. He was also a freshman who just entered, so why would he say so.

I can only mourn for the two friends, and spring will come after they survive. He believes that this is how he got through in his previous life! !

There are some things in the summer training camp, it is better for them to experience it for themselves, so that they can appreciate the difference, no matter how much it is said, it is not as good as action.

For Eijun, who has experienced his whole life, the Seido baseball team that he hates the most has to talk about the two major training camps.

The most outrageous thing is the winter joint training, which is the real hell. In comparison, the summer training before the summer competition is really very mild.

But in the eyes of others, it is still a painful existence. If you talk too much, you will cry. It will make you doubt your life, and it will make you doubt that this is definitely playing baseball.

With different thoughts among the three, they walked into the teaching building to attend class.

After the cultural class all morning, there will be no classes, but first go to the cafeteria for lunch. After lunch, Qingdao can also announce that the real training camp of the Qingdao baseball team has come.

As a support for the baseball team, the school also made concessions for this week of training.

Cancel some non-essential courses as much as possible, transfer the necessary ones to the morning, and free up the afternoon time. If it is really impossible to transfer under such circumstances, only one or two courses in the afternoon will be arranged at most. Try to avoid affecting the training of the players.

To be honest, after lunch, Eijun, who knew what he was going to meet next, really prepared himself a lot, and he was still trembling with fear.After all, his current body has not experienced these harsh trainings.

The slightly bleak resignation took Haruichi Kominato and Akatsuki Fugu to the stadium to start training.

The first item in the afternoon training is the basic defense for pitchers, that is, the response to filling exercises.

As a baseball giant, Qingdao has two baseball training fields. In order to fully train, the two fields of AB and B are all vacant.

Under the arrangement of Supervisor Kataoka, Eijun and Tanba trained as a group on Course A, while on the other side of Course B, Akira Furutani and Kawakami trained as a group.

The other Qingdao Second Army and reserve players are still assisting the Qingdao First Army players in training as in the morning. In this kind of auxiliary training, they can also exercise their batting and baserunning skills as assistants.

The methods of training are just those kinds of situations.When there are people on the first and second bases, the ball flies to the outfield, someone on the third base has a bunt walk, someone on the first base wants to steal a base, and so on. As a pitcher, the pitcher should go there to make up for it. How to prevent stealing Base, get the ball first in the case of a walk, pass the ball there first, etc.

Under this kind of training, it will generally last for about three to 10 minutes, and then replace the defenders present for a round of defensive practice.

And there is no rest time in the middle, it is a side that seamlessly alternates defense and attack, and there is no possibility for the players present to breathe.

Because the two stadiums were all vacant, under the arrangement of the coach, the [-] boys from the first army were equally distributed to each side for training.Don't be afraid that there is no place for you to sweat.

When the two sides start to defend at the same time, the obvious gap in the basic defense appears.

Even when Eijun didn't consume a lot of physical energy, he had a very keen sense of filling in, and he did it very well, and he couldn't pick out a single flaw.

After all, he is also the main pitcher who has experienced the major leagues for ten years and the main pitcher who has been in high school for three years. This basic defense has long been integrated into his soul.

Danbo's replacement in the third grade is not a perfect level, but after all, the level shown by three years of training experience is also a very solid level.

"Tamba-senpai and that guy Sawamura in Stadium A are very strong in defense, and they have fully demonstrated the highest level of the first army.

"Hahaha, I can't help it. After all, he is a third-year senior. However, Sawamura's performance is really surprising. But after all, he is the one who said he wants to be an ace. Without this level, it is too unreasonable."

The surrounding players who assisted in the training were all amazed by this performance, and were very satisfied with it. This kind of performance will only help them go further in the summer.

Training on the other side of the B court
Kawakami's replacement in the second grade is quite satisfactory without major mistakes.

Jiang Guxiao is just... um, what a hard-to-tell player. Apart from throwing the ball, he has no awareness of the cover, misses the catcher's pass, and is unprepared for someone on the base throwing the ball. There are really a lot of loopholes in it. I can find it.

In this kind of training and defense, it can be said that it can be said to be successful once in ten times, which makes the players who are assisting in the training feel moved, and they don't want to ask for more.

In this kind of training, Kenshi Kawakami, the second grader who trained together, made a mistake at most ten times because of unconscious carelessness.

What's even more funny is that during the only mistake made by Kenshi Kawakami, the junior Gao Lengdumeng, Jiang Guxiao, showed his presence very actively, and walked to Kenshi Kawakami to comfort him, "Don't mind ,no big deal."

After saying this, Kenshi Kawakami couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth. I made a mistake just once. You who have made many mistakes, is it really okay for you to not care about your mistakes?

"Ah Yiyi, Jiang Gu, where do you have the qualifications to say that others are okay!?"

"Who gave you the courage!!!!"

"You guy, Jiang Gu, practice hard for me!"

The senior who was assisting the training at the side couldn't help but get furious at Jiang Gu's casual words. I forgive your mistake so much, but you didn't pay attention to it yourself. You really pissed him off.

After three rounds of training in this way, it can be said that a part of the physical strength was consumed, but for every player, it was a trivial matter, just an appetizer.

Afterwards, instructions came from the stadium broadcast, "Tanba-san, Kawakami-san and Sawamura-san please go to the bullpen to prepare for the next training. Please go immediately if you hear it. Thank you for your cooperation."

After all, Eijun's life is different from before. If there is no problem with defense, it is natural that there is no need for too much practice, so naturally more practice is needed for pitching.

After talking to the seniors on guard, we headed to the bullpen.Seeing this scene, Jiang Gu was eager to move.

However, the seniors who were assisting the training at the side could only say haha, let's talk about it after practicing the defense for me obediently.

Under the ruthless suppression of his seniors, Jiang Gu could only continue to defend without any motivation, even though he really seemed to be throwing the ball, why did he practice on defense? It was really annoying behavior.

In Qingdao Cowshed

Eijun, who came to the bullpen at this time, was not Chris who caught the ball for him this time.After all, it's training time now, so we need to cooperate more with the first army catcher.

There are three catchers in the bullpen, Keisuke Miyauchi in the third grade, Kazuya Miyuki and Hiroshi Ono in the second grade.

After all, there are still fewer catchers than pitchers in the first army, so the main catchers of the second army will also cooperate with the pitchers to train, and the main catchers of the second army will definitely be selected for the first army in the autumn competition after summer.

The three catchers did not stipulate which pitcher they would cooperate with. Tanba, who is in the third grade, still likes to cooperate with Keisuke Miyauchi, who is also in the third grade.It was natural to choose him as a training object.

Kawakami Kenshi and Eijun would naturally not choose first as juniors, but Kawakami's seniors must be next.

"Senior, choose, I'm not in a hurry." As a junior, Eijun also showed his respect and friendship. After all, he didn't have to catch the tree of Miyuki and give up the whole forest.Although the most favorite catcher is Miyuki, that's it.

"Ah, okay."

Kenshi Kawakami hesitated for a moment, looked between Hiroshi Ono and Kazuya Miyuki a few times, and chose Kazuya Miyuki with better skills.

Rong Chun walked over to Ono in a kind manner, "Senior Ono, please give me some advice."

"Well, just throw it over, I will catch it, don't worry." Ono Hiroshi has cooperated with Eijun many times during this period, and he who can become the main catcher of the second army can catch it very well now About 90.00% of Eijun's ball types and pitches correspond.

Eijun stretched his arms, ready to start pitching practice.

In this training, 30 balls in each group will be divided into three times for throwing training.

After three sets of training like this, to Eijun, who has always been known as this physical madman, it was really a trivial matter.

The real hell training is still to come, this is just the beginning.

　When I watched Diamond Ace, I didn’t want the protagonist to have an emotional scene, but I thought about it again when I was writing it. It’s so contradictory. My favorite is the two diamond fans of Raising Arms and Wild Hands. I fell in love with Diamond Ace comics because of this. As for the two novels, Naruto, Miyuki, and Eijun's three favorite characters, Naruto belongs to the first place, which is really great. It's a pity that there are too few protagonists written as Gong Naruto, which is a pity.I hope that I will save more manuscripts in the future and work hard to code words. It is almost the beginning of the summer competition. I haven’t figured out how many words to finish. Let’s just let it go. Thank you for recommending tickets to my friends Guys, I am really grateful for your support, it gave me great motivation and proved that what I wrote is still read by people (=^▽^=).
