Chapter 119: The Good Kohai

Since then, Superintendent Kataoka's training for the first year has become tougher.

"Why did you stop, move these legs."

"If you can't catch the ball with your Mitt, block it with your body!"

"Keep your eyes on the ball, don't always look to the side, and give me the concentrating throw when you throw in!"

For the strict requirements of Kataoka, even some seniors can't stand it.

"It seems that Coach has become stricter than before."

"There is no other way, who will let the first-year players of the new team have poor skills!"

Between survival and elimination, Isashiki Jun had to make a choice.

'Ask me to be in the outfield or anywhere, if I can survive, I can do whatever you want.'

In order to survive in the team and get more chances, Isashiki began to practice in the outfield.

After the Senpai in the same dormitory fell asleep, he went to the training place alone.

'Eh?'

There, there was already a figure sweating like rain.

"Tetsu?"

"It's so late, what are you doing? You do not live in the dormitory, Do you stay and practice every day?"

Isashiki was surprised, and Yuuki replied.

"From the moment I joined the team, I made up my mind to practice swinging 500 times a day. 300 times at school and 200 times when I got home."

"For real?"

Isashiki Jun widened his eyes and looked at Yuuki in disbelief.

He thought his determination was big enough, but he didn't expect Tetsuya to be such a monster.

"Can we practice together? The snoring of the Senpai is too loud."

Just when Isashiki Jun was surprised, two more figures came.

Kominato!

Masuko!!

I want to be better than anyone else, This firm idea slowly affects the people around!

After the training, more and more people stayed to practice.

Meeting teammates who can encourage each other is really a blessing for this year's third-year players.

From that day onwards, they had only one goal to practice swinging hard every day.

Hard work doesn't lie!

Two months later, Yuuki was promoted to the First String, and he took the lead in hitting a home run.

"It hit the scoreboard!"

"Tetsu, you are the strongest!"

"After all of this training, it finally showed results!"

Became a starter for the first time, and hit a home run the first time he came to the field.

Since then, Yuuki has embarked on his own dream journey.

Every player in the third grade seemed to be hitting a home run by himself, and they were very happy, which was impressive.

Two years later, the baseball field of Seidou High School.

Superintendent Kataoka is doing the final fielding practice with the third-year players.

Their performances are very good, with all kinds of beautiful defense, staged again and again.

"Because others can encourage you, you can also work hard. The players of this generation are all people with strong minds."

This is how Takashima Rei introduced Furuya and Sawamura.

Furuya Satoru suddenly realized that it turned out that the seniors were not very good at the beginning, but accumulated hard work to get to where they are today!

We must also learn a lot from these Senpai!

"Every player who joined Seidou High School came here with great determination. This is the same in any generation, but the Senpais in the third year are more determined. I believe that our generation can be like this too!"

All the first-year players immediately acknowledged Sawamura's words.

Furuya, Toujou, Kanemaru, Kominato…

Everyone looked at him, just like before, all the players in the third grade looked at Captain Yuuki.

"Today's training ends here!"

After training, everyone gathered in a row and bowed to the staff.

They have done what they need to do, and the next step is to give full play to their strength and return to this field with a smile.

"Thank you for the training!!!"

After dinner, everyone gathered in the conference room.

Tomorrow's starters will be announced here.

"The main starting pitcher is Sawamura, the catcher is Miyuki, the first baseman is Yuuki, the second baseman is Kominato Ryosuke, the third baseman Masuko, and the shortstop Kuramochi. The left field is Kadota, the middle field is Isashiki Jun, and the right field is Shiratsu."

This time the starting lineup has been adjusted a lot.

The first point is the main catcher, replaced by Chris Miyuki.

After all, Chris has a one-year blank, and he has less research on the two rivals of Seidou High School.

In contrast, Miyuki's main job is to study Inashiro and Sankou High School.

He knew these two teams far better than Chris, or even anyone at Seidou High School.

It is the most suitable for him to serve as the starting catcher.

"Chris, you also have to be prepared, if there is a chance or an accident, you have to play at any time."

"Yes!"

Aside from Chris, the second surprise was the outfielder.

Sakai, who was in the left field, was replaced by Kadota.

"Disband!"

After announcing tomorrow's starter, Kataoka immediately announced the disbandment of the meeting.

The players stood up one by one and left the conference room.

On the night before the game, Seidou High School absolutely prohibited the players from extra training.

In the corner, Sakai clenched his fist unwillingly.

'I was actually excluded from the starter!'

Generally speaking, if Sawamura is not on the mound, the left fielder at Seidou High School will be Sawamura. And if Sawamura was on the mound, it would be Sakai in left field.

But this time, Sawamura was the starter, but Sakai didn't even get to play.

The one who played was Kadota.

"Sakai, substitute or play defense. In the second half of the game, we will definitely have substitute tactics. You have to be ready to return to the field to play at any time."

"Yes!"

Kataoka's last order was an explanation to Sakai.

His position is because of tactical adjustments.

The players went back to their dormitories, and no one fell asleep.

Speaking of which, these guys are also cheap. They used to practice late every day and were as tired as a dead dog after, so they lay in bed and fell asleep immediately. Now, instead of letting them train, they have nothing to do.

"Otherwise, let's go to our room." Kuramochi proposed very enthusiastically.

"Oh no!" Sawamura had a very bad feeling about this.

"What? Don't you welcome the Senpai? Huh?" Isashiki looked at Sawamura fiercely.

"No no, welcome, welcome. Wahahaha." Sawamura laughed.

Among all the dormitories, there is only the fifth dormitory is composed of the main force of the First String. It's natural for everyone to meet here.

After arriving at the room, Isashiki Jun made a very reasonable request.

"We're going to your dormitory, won't you give us treats?"

Masuko stood up stupidly: "What to drink?"

"Masuko, you are so kind to the Kohais. Let the Kohais do this kind of thing? Isn't the Kohai in your dormitory very rich, let him buy!"

"Why?"

Sawamura is not stingy. When he was in Akagi, he was a famous boy who scattered money. Gatherings and treats are commonplace for Sawamura.

But it was all his own volition, and now he is willing to treat guests, but it is always very unpleasant to be asked!

"You are not willing?"

Isashiki looked at him again with a vicious look.

I~

Sawamura wanted to say something, but couldn't say it.

"Be gentle with your Kohais, Jun. Sawamura, can you bring us some drinks, please?" Yuuki the Captain said solemnly.

"Yes sir!" Sawamura smiled bitterly and agreed. When Tetsu-san asks him like that, he can't refuse, can he?

"I want black tea!"

"I want Coke!"

"I want 100% orange juice!"

"I want the grape one!"
