1st practice match

After saying goodbye to Sano, Sawamura immediately brought the good news to Akagi's friends.

"Practice game!"

Just three days after its establishment, the little friends who didn't really understand what baseball was all about looked at Sawamura stupidly.

"Captain, aren't you kidding me, old man?"

"joke?"

Sawamura was incredulous: "How can I be joking? You don't want to inquire. I, Sawamura, was a well-known honest person in Nagano."

Honest man?

Aotsuki Wakana stared at Sawamura without speaking. But that expression was very intriguing.

"Okay, it doesn't matter!"

After all, Sawamura's face was not thick, and he was a little embarrassed to be stared at by his childhood sweethearts.

"But most of us don't know anything yet."

Nakagawa Nobu questioned.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"

Sawamura smiled and shook his head, indicating that they don't need to mind: "A sport like a baseball can be done by playing."

"Of course, as the team's captain and ace pitcher, I still need you to do me a favour. I need a catcher who can catch my pitch."

Catcher?

The little friend looked at Sawamura and said nothing. They are not really ignorant to that level. Most of them still know what happened to the catcher. But does a team really only need one catcher to play?

"enough!"

Sawamura smiled brightly.

To deal with the weak Shirun Middle School as long as someone can catch his ball is enough.

"You all put on the catcher's equipment. Let's try them one by one. As long as someone can catch my ball, we will eat Chinese food in the evening."

"it is good!"

When she heard that Sawamura wanted to treat again, Wakana was unhappy: "I want to treat again, do you still have money?"

The 10,000 yen given by the school has already been spent.

"It's okay, I'll call Mr. Sano. I think he's happy to donate money to our newly established baseball club."

In the office, Sano sneezed inexplicably.

"*sneeze*! Did someone miss me?"

Sano, who had just met the girl, had an inexplicable flush on his chubby cheeks.

He felt that maybe his spring was coming!

On the other hand, after the friends tried one by one, Yamaguchi was the only one who could catch Sawamura's pitch, so of course, he took over the burden of the team's second main catcher.

The team here has just decided on a shooting partner, and the news of Shirun Middle School over there has also come.

Their time seems to be very empty. The practice game is directly arranged for the afternoon of this Saturday. At that time, they can come to Akagi, or Akagi's friends can go to Shirun Middle School.

"Let's go, let's go!"

The captain of the baseball team at Akagi Middle School, Comrade Sawamura, said righteously: "The application we submitted for the competition, of course, was our past. How could Shirun's classmates come in such a hurry?"

"It doesn't seem that far, our two schools..."

Aotsuki didn't know if it was intentional or intentional, so she exposed it.

Sawamura's eyes widened, and he became unhappy: "What is the journey, the important thing is sincerity."

"Are you worried that the team doesn't have a dedicated baseball field?"

Wakana couldn't get used to Sawamura's appearance, so she directly exposed him.

Of course, Akagi Middle School, which has just established its baseball club, cannot have a dedicated baseball field. With the stinginess of Principal Takada, Sawamura even suspected that even if they reached the third grade, they would not be able to get into the dedicated baseball stadium.

In fact, in the last life, until Akagi was merged, Sawamura never used a dedicated baseball field in Akagi. The only temporary stadium was built by the friends themselves.

"It's still a good friend if you see it through or not, haven't you heard of it?"

Sawamura's old face couldn't hold back anymore, he stared at Aotsuki angrily and said.

"Oh, you're staring at me like this, it's giving me a headache. On Saturday, maybe I won't be able to participate in the game."

"Auntie, what's the matter with you? Someone offended you just now. Let me clean him up."

Sawamura immediately made a 180-degree turn, showing his arms and sleeves, posing as if he wanted to fight with others.

"Fuck you, who is your aunt?"

Aotsuki was embarrassed by what Sawamura said, with a strange flush on her little face.

"What chance do you think we have?"

Before going to the Shirun , Aotsuki asked Eijun worriedly.

In the first game of the Akagi Middle School baseball team, Aotsuki Wakana still hoped that everyone would win.

As long as the game is won, the baseball team will proceed very smoothly. If you can form a fighting force, represent the school to participate in the competition, win a good ranking, and win the honour for the school. No matter how stingy Principal Takada was, he would still show something.

As long as the school clubs have good grades, everything is possible, and even some powerful clubs can be sponsored. If it is an old club like the baseball club, the probability of getting support must be higher.

Aotsuki was dreaming her own beautiful dream, and Sawamura's eyes almost straightened.

Just now, what did Wakana say? How likely are you to win?

Is this a big joke?

The major competitions in this country are all knockout rounds. This also means that the teams in the first round have a completely different level of strength than the teams in the second round.

Shirun can reach the third round all year round, so their strength can be imagined.

Akagi is a group of rookies, it's good not to be tortured by blood. Still, thinking about the odds?

Girl, daydreaming doesn't do that either.

"Probably a few per cent."

Sawamura looked at Wakana's face, but in the end, he didn't dare to speak out, he just said vaguely.

How many per cent!

Wakana was relieved when she heard it. She and Sawamura were childhood sweethearts and had a very clear understanding of Sawamura's character. Although he often speaks loudly, his basic judgments are still very accurate. Sawamura said that there is a good chance of winning, so it must be a good chance of winning.

The next day, when Sawamura saw his little friends, they raised their chests and looked full of confidence.

They seem to be mentally prepared to win.

Does Sawamura really don't know the confidence they come from? This is probably because the so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, right?

Re-explained the basic rules of baseball with my friends, and then Sawamura began to lead everyone in training.

Before the competition with Shirun, he always thought that he could teach everyone more, so he taught more. Grinding the gun before the battle is not too fast.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was time to agree to a match with Shirun.

Akagi is an area, there are three middle schools in this area, living next to each other. They are Akagi, Akagi West and Shirun. Among them, Akagi and Akagi West are both public middle schools, while Shirun was built with private donations. Compared with the two public schools, the conditions are better.

The distance between the two schools was only 200 meters. Akagi's friends arrived at Shirun's baseball field within two minutes.

Here they will play the first practice game since the Akagi baseball team was established.
