Chapter 53: First Experience of the Giants(1/2)
The practice match between the pharmacist and the Qingdao Second Army.
As soon as the match started, the players from both teams were shocked by the other team.
The players of the Yakushima High School Baseball Team never imagined that even the second runner-up of the Seido High School Baseball Team would still possess outrageous strength.
The coordinated attack of several of their players was like flowing water.
There was no chance for the players on the Pharmacy High School baseball team to react at all.
They scored the 3rd or even 4th point.
Seido High School's fifth batter, the mixed-race player, finally returned to home plate with the help of his teammates.
The score on the field directly became 4:0.
The players of the Seido High School baseball team were also surprised.
They took today's practice match very seriously, and their opponent was specially selected by Director Kataoka.
Their purpose is to test a few players in the second army, or to put it more clearly, they want to test a few players who may be promoted to the first army.
This is their final test for those players.
The players of Qingdao First Army were all alarmed.
They did not continue individual practice, but stood on the sidelines, waiting to watch the game.
They didn't expect either...
Recently, it is said that Yakushi High School has defeated several opponents of the same level in a row.
To be so vulnerable.
The pharmacist's defense is full of loopholes.
If we were to switch to a team of similar level, Qingdao High School would probably only be able to score one or two points.
But because of two mistakes by the pharmacist, they directly turned one or two points into four points.
The players on the Seido High School baseball team were very curious.
How could such a team defeat so many opponents in practice matches?
"It's probably Senior Chris, he's too fierce!"
"There's also first-year Kominato Haruichi..."
"But no matter what happens, the pharmacist shouldn't be in such a mess, right?"
Several First Army players in Qingdao were talking about it. They even ran to the player named Miyuki and said this over and over again.
It was this player named Miyuki who said before that the Yakushima High School baseball team is not easy.
The current score is undoubtedly a slap in his face.
Facing the sarcasm from his teammates around him, a player named Miyuki Kazuya remained unmoved.
He even had some thoughts and joked with the friends around him with a smile.
"Do you want to make a bet? I said the game won't be so smooth."
"What to bet on?"
"The loser, give the winner a moon shoe."
Miyuki said.
"Hehe, no problem. It's free, brother, don't give it for free."
Kuramochi Yoichi readily agreed.
Captain Aomichi, who had been silent all this time, glanced at Kuramochi with sympathy.
"What, is something wrong?"
The player with a mustache looked at his captain strangely.
"without!"
"No, there must be. What exactly did you find?"
The player with a mustache asked reluctantly.
The captain, who didn't like to talk too much, was forced to explain.
"I didn't see any clues. But don't you think the other player is weird?"
Hearing the captain's question, the player with a mustache also frowned.
Before Captain Yuki told him, the player with the mustache really didn't notice it.
However, with the captain's reminder, he quickly discovered the disharmony.
To be honest, the players on the Yakushima High School baseball team reacted very strangely.
The opponent was the second runner-up of Seido High School, and they were crushed by the wealthy at the beginning of the game.
According to normal logic.
The players on the Yakushima High School baseball team must be desperate. Even if they are not desperate, their morale will be greatly affected.
After all, we lost 4 points at the beginning of the game, which is not easy to recover.
But these guys on the Yakushima High School baseball team seemed just annoyed by the four points they lost.
They were very angry and unwilling.
But he was not afraid at all, let alone gave up the game.
The eyes of those players were all shining with hope and fighting spirit.
They had no intention of giving up the game.
"Hehe, what an interesting opponent."
Several players on the first team of the Seido High School baseball team have vaguely noticed the difference in the Yakushima High School baseball team.
Even the players in their second army noticed something was wrong.
For example, Chris just returned to home plate.
Returned to home base and helped the team score the 4th point.
Afterwards, Chris returned to the rest area of the Second Army.
There were words of admiration all around, and the always noisy Sawamura Eijun was dancing excitedly.
"Master Chris, there will definitely be no problem this time."
"Don't relax, you warm up first and compete..."
Just when Chris was explaining to Sawamura, there were new changes on the court.
Pitcher Sanye, who had been losing hits and runs, gradually regained his form and began to steadily win outs.
In the meantime, he also gave up two hits.
But fortunately, he did not continue to lose points.
The score on the field was fixed at 4:0.
After the first half of the first inning, the players of the Seido High School baseball team cheered.
Even those Qingdao alumni who came specially to watch the game looked excited.
The Yakushi High School Baseball Team has made it to the third round of the Tokyo Spring Tournament.
In addition, in recent times, Pharmacist High School has gained so much momentum.
The pharmacist must have some strength.
It is precisely because of the strength of the Yakushima High School baseball team that when the second team of the Seido High School baseball team tortured them to the point where they could not hold their heads up.
Those alumni of the Seido High School baseball team, including the players of the Seido High School baseball team.
Just got more excited.
They will figure out that even the second half of the team has such strength.
The first team of their team. Needless to say?
The first team of their team must be stronger!
This year, Qingdao High School might really have hope.
The third-year team, led by Tetsuya Yuuki, has matured, and there is also a super-powerful rookie pitcher with a ball speed of 150 kilometers.
Everything in Qingdao is developing in a good direction.
Even Chris has returned perfectly.
There is hope, there is absolutely hope.
Just when most of the players on the Seido High School baseball team, as well as the old alumni of their team, were thinking so.
