Chapter 15: The Main Force Assessment Begins
Another exhausting day!
Qing Dao's little friend ** practiced very badly~
The first two days belonged to the stage of squeezing physical strength. No matter who it is, facing such a simple and rough exercise method, will not adapt quickly.
Sawamura is relatively better because he is now practicing his new swing.
Originally, the coaching staff just wanted to let Sawamura try it out, and put it on the schedule if it works, and forget it if it doesn't work.
Unexpectedly, after Sawamura adopted the squatting posture, the attacking power has been significantly improved.
Fifty balls for the man, fifty balls for the pitching machine!
He hit more than 70 percent!
Although there were very few long hits, the stability of the strike was significantly improved compared to the morning.
Practice the truth!
The results of the experiment show that Chris's suggestion is feasible.
Next, Sawamura's training also changed. Although he couldn't keep swinging, he could practice squatting and hitting.
"It's so awkward!"
This feeling of squatting is a bit like a horse step, which is very uncomfortable.
Of course, like the horse stance, when you squat and stabilize in this way, the lower plate of your entire body is stabilized.
When Sawamura strikes, all you have to do is keep your arm steady.
Originally, because the joints of his whole body were soft, when he swung the bat, his entire body moved. This naturally increases the difficulty of swinging the stick accurately. Your whole body is as soft as a rope, and naturally there is no way to point where to hit. Now that Sawamura has stabilized his lower body, it is much easier to simply adjust his upper body.
Of course, such a swing also has its weaknesses. Because you stabilize your lower body, you can only strike with the strength of your two arms. Compared with starting from the feet, to the waist, to the arms, the swing of the whole body goes all out.
new swing,
It is naturally weaker in terms of striking power.
Swing practice is followed by pitching practice, and pitching practice is followed by fielding practice.
While Sawamura was doing garrison training, Supervisor Kataoka called the current three catchers of the First Army to his office.
"How is the situation of Jiang Guxiao?"
Facing the three, Kataoka asked bluntly.
The first person to ask is Akatsuki.
This made Miyauchi Keisuke stunned for a moment. He has been cooperating with Danbo in pitching training. He really doesn't know much about the current situation of Akatsuki.
In my impression, he should still be doing supplementary practice now, right?
Also, it's pretty bad...
Totally not qualified to play.
There are Sawamura, Danbo, and Kawakami as a substitute in the team...
Originally, Miyauchi did not think that Xiao Gu would have a chance to play. Not to mention, fighting for the trump card with Sawamura and Tamba.
How do you listen to the supervisor's meaning, it seems that it is still possible to send Xiao Gu Xiao on the field?
Although Kataoka didn't say it directly, everyone could still hear what he meant.
"According to your instructions, I didn't let him into the bullpen to practice shooting in the past two days. It should be suffocated. However, there have been very obvious improvements in filling positions and defense."
Chris said eloquently.
If during this period of time, among the pitchers of Qingdao, who has made the greatest progress, it is undoubtedly Xiao Gu Xiao.
Pitcher fielding and cover, if points are counted. A perfect score of 100, Sawamura is at least 98.
Danbo ninety.
Eighty-five on the river.
The gap between them is obvious, but in fact, they are already very high in completion. Like Sawamura, it is extremely difficult for him to go further.
During the training period, his progress was minimal.
This evaluation is all polite, he is actually equivalent to no progress. Danbo and Kawakami have at least improved by a point or two.
Jiangguxiao is different, Jiangguxiao was originally a big zero.
He doesn't know anything about pitching knowledge and skill except pitching.
In the two months of Qingdao's intensive training, he has made rapid progress and has grown to 59 points.
Although he didn't pass the grade yet, in terms of the growth rate, the remaining three plus one plus one multiplied by ten did not drop half of Gu Xiao's height.
On this side, all the coaching staff of Qingdo High School, including Chris, were very surprised.
They had to admit that Xiao Gu, a man, seemed to be born for baseball.
Miyuki added.
"His physical fitness has reached the limit, and I believe he can start pitching into the bullpen tomorrow."
Miyauchi looked at Chris and Miyuki strangely.
The three of them are in the bullpen, and almost all of them are fixed partners by themselves.
Kawakami partnered with Miyuki, Sawamura partnered with Chris, and himself partnered with Danbo.
Occasionally there are swaps, but most of the time, this is the case.
Because of the devil's training, the physical and mental energy in the palace has also been doubly tortured. He has no time to focus on the three pitchers with the remaining energy. How could he have the time to focus on other people?
However, Miyuki and Chris were able to tell the truth about the situation of Akatsuki Fukugu.
Incredible!
Shouldn't they be just like themselves, just dealing with Danbo, Kawakami, and Sawamura?
Kataoka listened to the answers of the two, nodded slightly, and continued to ask.
"What about Danbo?"
Ask Danbo, this is naturally the responsibility of the palace.
Miyuki and Chris were very knowledgeable and didn't rob the palace.
"The state is very good! The new change ball has been honed very smoothly. Although Sawamura is now overtaking him in the limelight, I think the current Danbo still has the strength to compete for the ace."
This rating is very high!
The Kanto Conference was like a touchstone, clearly showing the gap between Tamba and Sawamura.
It was hard for Kataoka to believe that Miyauchi would say that Tamba already has the qualifications to challenge Sawamura.
He looked suspiciously at Chris and Miyuki.
At this time, Chris and Miyuki are pretending to be deaf and dumb, which is inappropriate. After pondering for a while, Chris spoke first.
"In terms of the quality of his pitching, I don't think Danbo has the strength to challenge Sawamura right now. But every shot he throws, he can show his fighting spirit. I believe his fighting spirit will come in the summer games. It can also help the team a lot.”
The words did not say that the palace was so full!
But the meaning to be expressed is very clear, and Chris also admits the strength of Danbo now.
Kataoka nodded.
In the third grade, because they feel their responsibility, there are not no players who have made rapid progress in high school.
If Danbo can really grow up, it will be beneficial and harmless to him and the entire Qingdao High School.
"What about Kawakami?"
With a plan in mind, Kataoka skipped the topic and continued to ask.
Miyuki nodded.
"Kawakami has also worked very hard during this period of time, and his pitching is good. The sharp change of the ball and the good ball control, if the psychological quality can be stronger, there is even the possibility of winning the trump card."
This is called speechless endless death.
Miyuki actually said that Kawakami also has the strength to compete for the trump card, which is really unimaginable.
