Ace of Diamonds: A world-class speedball signed at the start

Shout!

Tanba prepared a little and threw the ball with all his might.

According to the judgment of [world-class short play level], Lin Tian knew that this was a longitudinal curveball.

Because I knew in advance.

So when using the technique of [National Long Play], Lin Tian still forcibly hit the ball to the position of the outfield.

Merely.

Although it can hit far.

But the landing point cannot be controlled.

Let's be honest.

Lin Tian hated this feeling of being out of control.

But.

This is not an official competition.

So you can continue to grind like this.

Lin Tian believed.

After Tanba's sparring session.

In the future, if you encounter a longitudinal curveball in an official match, it will be easier to deal with it.

While!

While!

While!

Crisp hitting sound.

Lin Tian's experience in dealing with longitudinal curveballs has risen sharply.

......

Late at night.

After a day of training.

As always, all the First Army members circled the court and ran 20 laps.

And Sawamura, Shimitani Akira, Kominato Haruichi three.

Due to extreme physical exhaustion, he was completely unable to keep up with the large troops.

Wait until the run.

All three lay on the ground in large shapes.

"Tomorrow is also starting in the morning!"

"After stretching, hurry back to rest!"

Coach Kataoka clasped his hands to his chest and spoke.

"Yes!"

Everyone answered in unison.

"Oops..."

"The body can't move anymore..."

Sawamura gasped under sweat.

"Can't move..."

Xiangguxiao collapsed on the ground, also panting rapidly.

"Why are they still standing?"

"It's just a bunch of monsters..."

Kominato Haruichi closed his eyes and gasped for air.

......

Observation room at Course A.

Coach Kataoka looked at the court outside and asked Chris, Miyuki Kazuya, and Keisuke Miyauchi and "How are Sawamura and Shimitani Akira in the first year?" "

"Almost overtired, right?"

Chris nodded: "Yes, according to the coach's instructions, I didn't let them pitch until they got used to the intensity of the training camp." "

"You can almost slow down."

"Let them go into the bullpen to pitch and participate in defensive practice."

Coach Kataoka: "How are Tanba and Kawakami doing?" "

Keisuke Miyouchi's nose snorted like a cow and said, "Very good." "

Coach Kataoka: "There is still a long time left in the training camp, don't let them train too hard." "

"On the last weekend of training, I had already scheduled three practice sessions."

"Saturday's match, played by Lin Tian and Sawamura."

"In Sunday's game, Akira Shimoya and Kawakami will each shoot."

"Regarding these three games, I don't care about winning or losing."

"I just want to see what kind of tenacity all the players who are extremely tired can play."

......

The fourth day of the training camp.

Sawamura and Shimotani, who still had not shot the ball, looked at the cowshed with longing eyes.

"Hey!"

"Don't look around!"

"Concentration exercises!"

The assistant coach shouted.

While!

As the words fell, the assistant coach hit the ball out.

Swish!

Sawamura immediately rushed after the ball.

But in my heart, I want to pitch more.

"Pass second base!"

The catcher who assists Sawamura in training reminds loudly.

Hearsay.

When Sawamura received the ball, he subconsciously passed it to second base.

"Oooh!"

"Isn't it!!"

"Beautiful defense!"

"The action just now is very good!"

At this moment, Sawamura was praised by many people, and the whole person was a little fluttering with joy.

"I can't lose either!"

Shuoya, who regards Sawamura as a fierce enemy, has a very high fighting spirit.

However

While making up first base....

Still using the edge of the glove to catch the ball....

"Valley! How much concentration on the ball! "

The member of the auxiliary training department shouted with a headache.

......

In the blink of an eye.

Night falls.

Lin Tian and Zemura returned to Qingxinliao after they returned.

Seeing Sawamura and Shimitani passing by their dormitory and not entering, he couldn't help but ask, "Don't you take clothes and take a bath?" "

"I want to find Miyuki-senpai to pitch." "

Sawamura: "Me too!" "

Guxiao: "Why?" You let Senior Chris catch your ball, won't you? "

Sawamura: "Shut up! He solemnly rejected me! "

Lin Tian saw this.

Instantly understood.

This is because I haven't pitched for a long time, so I want to ask Miyuki for help with squatting today.

"If memory serves..."

"Is it because of looking for Miyuki, which led to being sent to the dormitory by Miyuki and helping the senior run errands?"

Think of this.

Lin Tian left silently.

He doesn't want to give people massages or run errands.

......

"Lin Tian."

"Do you want a late-night snack?"

Just separated from Sawamura, Lin Tian was around the corner and saw Takako Fujiwara holding a small bag of rice balls.

"Did you do this?"

"Yes!"

"Then give it to me."

"No, eat slowly, don't choke, see you tomorrow~~"

"See you tomorrow."

After giving the rice balls to Lin Tian, Fujiwara Takako turned and left.

But.

Just took two steps, and stopped again.

Takako Fujiwara turned his head and asked Lin Tian, "Do you still want it tomorrow?" "

Lin Tian: "If you don't bother, just help me prepare a copy, the amount is not too much." "

Takako Fujiwara: "No trouble, no trouble, smooth things, then I'll go~~"

Lin Tian: "Well, see you tomorrow." "

......

The fifth day of the training camp.

After the morning exercise.

Lin Tian and Sawamura were preparing to go to the cafeteria for breakfast.

On the road.

Met Chris.

And got a good news.

- Go into the bullpen to practice pitching.

Sawamura and Shimitani, who learned of this, were both happy and crazy.

But.

Seeing that Keisuke Miyauchi, a substitute catcher of the First Army, was in charge of the squat hunt, the enthusiasm of Sawamura and Shimitani Xiao instantly exploded.

Because they are not familiar with each other.

As for Lin Tian?

He doesn't care.

After all, Keisuke Miyauchi is a member of the First Army, so he will definitely be able to catch his ball.

......

"Come again!"

"I'm not tired at all!"

On the court, Isashiki shouted loudly with sweat.

"One more ball!"

Captain Tetsuya Yuki shouted enthusiastically.

"Let the horses come!"

Masuko shouted after that.

"Haruichi, you're blocking me."

Ryosuke Kominato said with a light smile as he turned his back to his brother, who was tired and half-squatted beside him.

"Substitution!"

"I'll hit the ball!"

At this time, Coach Kataoka carried the bat and walked to home plate on the court.

Yuki: "!! "

Izo: "!! "

Masuko: "!! "

Kominato: "!! "

Position: "!! "

The main forces of the First Army were instantly taken aback.

But Lin Tian was a little impatient, after all, a strong shot would be more interesting to defend.

As for why he didn't practice pitching in the bullpen.

The main thing is that Keisuke Miyouchi is alone.

The pitching of Sawamura and Takashi Setsugi alone kept him busy, and sometimes it was indirectly Lin Tian's ball.

So.

Lin Tian simply came to the court to train in outfield defense.

"The first-grade junior went down to rest."

"As for the others, be mentally prepared!"

Coach Kataoka pointed in the direction of Kominato Haruichi and said solemnly.

"Keep it going, you'll get hurt, go down."

Ryosuke Kominato said to his younger brother Kominato Haruichi.

“......"

Kominato Haruichi was silent for a moment.

But despite some reluctance, the exhaustion of his body really could not make him run anymore.

Ultimately.

He left the pitch sadly.
