In mid-October, time circulates.

During this period, the baseball part of Baishan High School became two groups.

The second-year team followed the Superintendent of Tokushi to Osaka to conduct a practice competition with local high schools. The first-year team stayed in Mie Prefecture to participate in the regional preliminaries of the annual conference.

As soon as Komata Meixing and others came back, they immediately complained to Takashi Nishino and others.

"Oh, I still have to make up for my lessons when I come back, it's so miserable."

In addition to departmental activities, classes are still required, and you have to make up for the missing amount. Therefore, various Japanese high school club members often learn to make up for the lessons.

"Just Xiaozhe, you guys are fine. Just play in the county, and your opponents are also familiar with you."

"It's so uncomfortable. The people in Osaka are too strong."

"I feel like no one can beat it when I get there."

Osaka Kirie, Rosashi, Osaka Kinami... Higashi Takuji has made appointments with many local baseball schools in Osaka.

The players of the second-year team were in great pain and were beaten up during the stay.

Fortunately, the suffering is not in vain. The main players of Nishino Tetsuya were missing. The second graders worked on their own and got a lot of training from the practice competition.

Although the record cannot be reflected, Komata Meteor and the others still feel that they will definitely improve, otherwise those beatings will be in vain.

In contrast, the annual team experienced the joy of victory and was proud of the spring breeze for a while.

There are annual meetings in Japanese high school baseball, not all places, such as Tokyo.

Usually, in the third grade, the autumn conference where the main position is vacant, most of them have no need to sit on the bench in their annual life, and they are waiting for opportunities in the stands.

In order to allow players to play formal games in the fall of the first grade, annual meetings have been held in various parts of Japan decades ago.

Sanchong County held its first annual meeting in 1980, and the 38th is still in progress.

The event is divided into two stages, first of which is the qualifiers in each region of the county, and then the schools in each region compete for the final victory in the conference.

Tsu City, where Shirayama Town is located, is located in the Nakame area of ​​Mie Prefecture.

A total of 8 schools will conduct the first preliminary selection first and decide the first representative in a single knockout match.

Under the leadership of Tetsu Nishino, the team's progress and scoring were particularly smooth.

First match: Jindong 3-10 Baishan, 7 games ended early.

The second battle: Baishan 9 to 4 Tianjin merchants.

The third battle: Baishan 6 to 2 to Jinxi.

Baishan High School's annual team won consecutive games, won all three knockout matches, and directly won the first place in the mid-strait area.

Not only that, the first-year team of Shiratsuyama also launched strong attack firepower, including two of Nishino Tetsuya's teams, and a total of 4 home runs.

Although every game has made mistakes, the flaws do not conceal the merits. Baishan's annual students performed quite well and were in the first echelon in the competition with their peers.

Tetsu Nishino's blow is mainly reflected in the efforts of the opponent's pitcher.

I chose 6 four bad goals in 3 games.

So many four bad guys are on the base, of course, not because the opponent's pitcher deliberately walks. On the contrary, most of them are caused to win the number of outs.

No matter where you are, direct surrender without resistance is an unwise act.

Sometimes, after a game, the opponent's pitcher consumes as many as 30 balls on Takashi Nishino.

Faced with a strategy that focuses on dodging balls, Tetsu Nishino chose to stick to home plate discipline and intends to reduce the batting rate.

If four are bad, four are bad. Just be able to go to the first base steadily.

I have a slightly different idea from the later part of the Autumn Conference.

Tetsu Nishino who reached first base was not idle. As long as no one was in the second base, he would definitely steal the base. Choosing a four-bad ball at this time was equivalent to hitting a second base.

Even so, Tetsuo Nishino also hit 7 hits in his limited 10 hits, including 2 home runs, and 3 games contributed a total of 7 RBIs.

The pitcher at the annual conference could not suppress him at all.

Baishan supporters are no longer surprised by the stable and excellent performance of the main players in the fourth series, but are surprised by the potential of other annuals.

Judging from the growth potential, the quality of this year’s annual student in Baishan High School is excellent, and it has clearly reached the level of special enrollment in some private schools.

The future is promising.

The supporters of Baishan couldn't help but look forward to their strength to grow.

Two years later, when the arrests formed by two Nishino reached the peak of their strength in high school, and students of the same level also grew up together, the supporters of Baishan were excited just thinking about it.

Now, at most, I can only imagine it in my mind first.

The second-year team returned, and the annual meeting preliminaries were over. The baseball department of Baishan High School continued to prepare for the most important events throughout the fall.

East China Sea Conference.

The official competition rules do not state that the autumn regional conference is the qualifier for the next spring Jiaziyuan, but the selection criteria of the election committee over the years are the direct results of the autumn regional conference.

The East China Sea area designated by Japanese high school baseball includes four counties.

Gifu Prefecture.

Shizuoka Prefecture.

Aichi Prefecture.

Sanchong County.

Every spring, Jiaziyuan has 32 appearance places. Except for the reserved few, the remaining ones are allocated to various regions.

There are 2 fixed quotas in the East China Sea area.

There are also four or five hundred participating schools, and there are 1.5 in Tokyo, and the competition between the two places is almost the same.

A total of 12 schools in the four counties of the Donghai Conference have entered the final stage. If you enter the finals, you will likely get the right to play in the Spring Festival next year.

After entering the finals, you can actually win or not.

For the schools participating, reaching the finals is more important than winning. Therefore, the semi-finals are the life-and-death battle of the East China Sea Conference. The victory or defeat determines the qualifications for Jiaziyuan to play.

Only 60 high schools in Mie Prefecture participated in the prefecture's autumn conference, which was in sharp contrast to the more than 190 in Aichi Prefecture next door.

It has been difficult for Sanchong County to fight to the end, so there has been a phenomenon of going to the East China Sea Conference to accompany you almost every year.

"Every year after year, I just can't go to Jiaziyuan."

Fengye High School has been hoping to break the cycle for a long time.

Not only does Yoshino High School want to realize its dream through the Spring Koko Garden, thousands of high schools across Japan value the opportunity to go to the Spring Koko in the autumn conference.

Hagar is the only place to play in the county conference.

On the other hand, there is a certain chance of playing well in autumn.

Many ordinary public schools regard Chunjia as a possible trip to Jiaziyuan, rather than the most difficult Haka.

The recommended quotas set up by Chunjia are usually given to disadvantaged public schools, especially those with improved grades in recent years, and most spring and summer have not appeared in Jiaziyuan.

Baishan High School is currently in an awkward position between strength and weakness.

This year, the semi-finals of the Xiamen League have played in Jiaziyuan and have a good record.

The recommended quota for weak teams will definitely not be obtained. Mie Takano Company has already recommended schools to other schools in the prefecture.

The first county recommendation qualification is gone, let alone the competition for regional qualifications and national final qualifications.

If you want to go to Chunjia, Baishan can only compete in the East China Sea Conference, referring to the two fixed places.

……………………

The daily preparations for the Baishan High School baseball department are progressing steadily.

one day.

Tetsu Nishino received a Line message from U18 teammate Hirose Yoshida.
