Volume 3: Hot Summer Chapter 030 Open the protagonist template
Almost everyone in the stands of Hachioji Stadium had a stunned look on their faces.
Zhang Han!
The newcomer who caused a sensation at the beginning of this competition with his home runs is once again at the center of attention.
Following closely behind was the sound of reporters and enthusiastic fans taking photos.
They have a hunch that perhaps in the near future they will witness the birth of a legendary hitter.
First grade~
It would be hard for a first-year freshman to not cause a sensation with such performance.
"Supervision!"
The assistant coach of the city's third high school had tears in his eyes.
Others might just be impressed by Zhang Han’s strength, as they are different from the senior high schools in their city.
In addition to their emotions, they also felt deep regret and a little annoyance.
There is no wall that is impenetrable.
Although Takashima Rei tried to keep a low profile, how did she poach players? This is now an open secret in the baseball circle of wealthy high schools.
The treatment is almost exactly the same, except that the tuition waiver is replaced by a scholarship.
While people praised Takashima Rei's superb skills, they were also secretly mocking Ichidai Sangao's arrogance.
Nowadays, things are different from the past. Young people have a more open mind. In the past, if a big club invited a player, other teams would not try to get involved.
Moreover, once the players have tacitly accepted an invitation, they will not consider other teams.
But that was in the past. Nowadays, both players and teams have two-way choices.
During the enrollment process, if the operation is not done well, the cooked duck will fly away, which is not the first or second time.
Even the island country’s own young people are like this, not to mention that Zhang Han is an international student.
The third high school student of the city university doesn't care about such gossip.
There are many examples like this, especially in recent years, when people's hearts are unsettled, and such situations are countless .
Everyone just talks about it in private, but the city’s third high school is still the city’s third high school.
At least the assistant coach of the city's third high school never took this matter seriously.
In addition, he had never been optimistic about Zhang Han, and thought that such a player was dispensable to their city's senior high school.
It's not worth paying such a huge price for Zhang Han.
But now, his view has changed fundamentally.
He became a main player of Qingdao in his first year and served as the sixth batter. He had the odd-numbered number 6 on his back.
All of this shows that Qingdao High School values Zhang Han very much.
And Zhang Han did not disappoint the expectations of Kataoka and the Qingdao High School baseball team.
In the first game against Musashi High School, it was he who got the hit and broke the deadlock.
And in that game, he even hit a home run.
Although his performance in the second game was a little mediocre.
But even so, he still scored two RBIs.
Now in the third game, the opponent is a dark horse that suddenly emerged. This is the first real challenge that Qingdao High School faces since the start of the competition.
It was him again who opened the scoring with a two-run home run.
This is the performance of the newcomer, both in terms of personal performance and contribution to the team.
They have all delivered perfect answers.
No matter how stringent the evaluation standards are, when evaluating Zhang Han, I'm afraid everyone will give him a thumbs up.
Thinking about how my team missed out on such a genius.
The assistant coach of the city's third high school regretted his decision so much.
"Don't be upset, boy! We already knew Zhang Jun's talent."
Supervisor Tahara is quite open-minded.
"Zhang Jun has great talent and has been training in Qingdao for three or four months. In addition, his opponents know almost nothing about him. Under such circumstances, it is expected that Zhang Jun will emerge and perform well. As for whether he can grow to the level you imagine in the future? It is still uncertain. But I dare to assert that by the time of the autumn competition, his performance will definitely not be as dazzling as it is now."
Although Director Tahara's analysis makes a lot of sense.
Anyone who truly understands baseball knows how important intelligence is in today's baseball games.
It is understandable that opponents would be caught off guard by a dark horse like Zhang Han who suddenly emerges.
But this still cannot conceal the fact that Zhang Han performed outstandingly.
After a few seconds of silence, the stands erupted into a huge uproar.
“Home run!!”
"Oh my god, that guy is a first grader, right?"
"Qingdao High School has never lacked good hitters. Azuma, Yuki, and now Zhang Han. They all hit home runs in one summer!"
"If their pitchers were as talented as their hitters, Qingdao would be a success!"
People were amazed at Zhang Han's performance.
It is no wonder that they do this. In a stalemate game between pitchers from both sides, the side that scores first will undoubtedly have a great advantage.
Especially on the side of the strong, that is, Qingdao's side.
If they score first, it will be difficult for the weaker side to catch up.
In 90% of cases, the score gap will get bigger and bigger.
When Zhang Han returned to the rest area, he was welcomed as a hero by his friends.
"You kid!"
Dong Qingguo held Zhang Han's neck and high-fived the friends around him.
"Two home runs, you're going to catch up with Qing!"
“I’m rooting for you!”
“Well done!!”
Zhang Han, whose head was clamped, felt like his neck had grown three inches longer.
At this time he couldn't say a word and could only use his eyes to signal desperately.
When you are praising me, could you please loosen my neck?
Otherwise people will die!
Even Kataoka, who was usually strict, said something nice.
“Good job!”
It was worth the high price paid for the small firework to snatch Zhang Han from the third-year high school student in the city.
"yes!"
After the supervisor spoke, the Dongqing Kingdom released Zhang Han.
After being released, Zhang Han took a few breaths and quickly agreed.
"Although we are ahead, we should not be careless. The fire in the opponent's eyes has not been extinguished. This game has just begun."
Because of Zhang Han's home run, the situation on the field changed fundamentally.
Correspondingly, the strategy of Qingdao High School baseball team must also be adjusted.
Originally, they wanted to use their physical strength and experience to wear down their opponents and then score points.
But now, they are ahead in the score, so there is no need to be as conservative as before.
You can completely open up your offense and test the team's true offensive strength.
“Ouch!”
The friends responded in unison and went on stage to attack.
But unfortunately, the performances of Jun Isashiki and Kazuya Miyuki were not as amazing as Zhang Han's.
They were both out quickly.
This also served as a reminder to Qingdao.
Qingshan High School has not collapsed yet. It is too early for them to celebrate their victory.
