Chapter 284 Hanshin Koshien Stadium

Before the opening of the National Congress, Baishan has been training at the school stadium near the hotel these days, and then waited for the Koziyuan stadium arranged by Takano Lian to practice.

After Takano Lian decided on the practice schedule of the Kaziyuan, each school has half an hour to practice at the Kaziyuan Stadium.

This kind of Jiaziyuan stadium practice has more symbolic significance than practical significance and is not very helpful to the upcoming games. At most, it is to give players a sense of the venue.

This year, more than 50 teams have to take turns practicing, and the time schedule is relatively tight.

During the precious thirty minutes of Jiaziyuan training, few teams spend a lot of time on strike training, and most of them choose to conduct garrison training and fall on the court.

Hanshin Kaziyuan Stadium, the holy site of college baseball, is actually located not in Osaka, but in Nishimiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.

In the early 20th century, the first baseball activities that appeared at that time were mainly amateur games between high school students, and the professional baseball league in Japan had not yet been born.

The National Conference of the Men's Hard Baseball Department of Higher Education Institutions was held in the Kansai area since the organizer was Asahi Shimbun, so it was held in the Kansai area from the beginning.

In the 1920s, Hanshin Electric Railway, a private railway company in the Kansai region, built a large baseball stadium that can accommodate tens of thousands of spectators in a location between Osaka and Kobe.

The stadium was finally completed in 1924. According to the traditional Ganzhi Dynasty, this year was the year of Jiazi, so the stadium was named Hanshin Jiaziyuan Stadium.

After the birth of the Japanese Professional Baseball League, the Kaziyuan Stadium became the home court of the professional baseball team "Hanshin Tigers".

However, the status of the National Conference on College Baseball is still very important. In the summer, the Hanshen Tigers had to work hard to play away games in a row in order to give up the stadium to give up the college football.

The summer of August is the season when typhoons hit.

Hanshin Kaziyuan Stadium is an outdoor stadium with only a ceiling on the central table, and other stands are open-air.

Moreover, the Jiaziyuan Stadium is located near the seaside. In summer, the game is often interrupted or cancelled due to rain. Even the Jiaziyuan practices of college teams have been suspended or shortened by rain.

Baishan High School conducts Jiaziyuan exercises under the sunny sky.

"Back home plate!"

Seeing the coach playing ball and going out of the field, Tetsu Nishino stood in front of the home plate and shouted at the field, signaling the outfielder to quickly pass the home base.

Komata Meteor in the right field ran forward and picked up the ball, assisted a few steps before passing the ball to the home plate.

Staring at the white baseball flying back quickly across the inland field, Takashi Nishino adjusted his position according to the expected ball landing point so that he could quickly get in touch with the killing action after receiving the ball.

"Bang!" Pinching the ball in the glove, Tetsu Nishino turned around and pressed towards the third base line, completing this garrison training.

"Not bad." Toshitao said, leaning on the bat.

After hitting the ball to the field, Toshitao retreated to the outside of the home zone and carefully watched the players' reaction speed and technical movements.

In the past few dozen minutes at Jiaziyuan Stadium, Baishan players now wear gloves to pass and receive the ball, including training and group practice.

When the team conducts internal and external field pass reception training, Totaoji Supervisor is responsible for playing the coach's bat, and Takashi Nishino stands at home, responsible for receiving the return passes from the base of his teammates.

In order to be familiar with the venue, several pitchers took turns standing on the pitcher mound and made a trial shot with Tetsu Nishino today.

When we arrived at the back, the players from Baishan took turns to stand in the strike zone, and played a few balls to experience the feeling of hitting the ball in Jiaziyuan.

Tetsu Nishino stood in the right strike area, and Yamamoto Shuoya fed him a straight ball.

"Clang!"

Tetsu Nishino, who swung the bat, pressed the ball to the ground. After the baseball hit the ground, the route he popped out slightly deviated from what he thought.

"The soil in the Indori is soft."

The soil in Jiaziyuan is obviously softer than the hard loess in the county, and Takashi Nishino could not say for a moment what the advantages and disadvantages of their Baishan defense were.

There is no lawn in the inlando of Hanshin Kaziyuan Stadium, and the entire ground is paved with famous black soil.

Unlike the sand used in baseball venues in various parts of Japan, the black soil in Jiaziyuan is made up of 60% of the black soil produced in Japan and 40% of the white sand produced in Fujian, China.

Generally speaking, using this formula black soil is conducive to defensive players to identify the movement trajectory of baseball rebound, especially those of college-age players who do not have solid basic skills.

The time for practice passed quickly. The players in Baishan had sorted out their things and carried their equipment to the player's passage, and were about to open the door and go out.

"Feel sorry."

Opening the door from the player channel, Sasaki Daimeng and Yoshida Keihi in front of the queue almost bumped into the player of Shiratsuyama.

"It's okay, you guys come out first." Hiroki Tsuji led his teammates to move out of the way for the next team to enter the court.

In order to show politeness and gratitude, the players of Jinzunong High School who came out of the passage nodded slightly to the Baishan people.

Even though they didn't know each other, Nishino and the others still nodded politely to respond.

As the reason why the team watched cricketers on the same show, Yoshida Hiroshen looked at Tetsu Nishino, "I'm a first grade, I'm really young."

On the night after the practice, the players of Shiratsuyama returned to the hotel and received a stern warning from Takano.

The reason is that during the visit and study of Kakoen before the conference, Minister Kawamoto Masako entered the strike zone and swung several times after being persuaded by the supervision of Tokutaoji.

College baseball maintains some stubborn traditions, including the "female ban". Not only female players cannot participate in the competition, but they can't even assist in training in Jiaziyuan.

The first time Shirashan High School made a mistake of ignoring Takano's tradition, whether intentionally or unintentionally, so it was severely warned by relevant personnel of the conference.

Having said that, Minister Kawamoto's excited smile when he was swinging the baton in Kokoyuan had the power to remind people of the joy he had when he started playing baseball.

If you do the Jiaziyuan practice again, Baishan may make the same mistake.

As the opening day of the conference approached, all schools submitted the last 18 people before coming to Jiaziyuan, and the supervisor of the Tokutao Department also handed over to Takano Company early, and the personnel had basically not changed much.
