Chapter 643 Don't Watch the Unspoken Rules of the Game

Shen Qin half-knelt on the ground, squinted his eyes and burst into tears. It took him a long time to stand up while touching the bat, and he saw a ghost!How can you fight this!
"Mr. Judge, can I change my contact lenses?"

"Sorry." The head judge's face under the mask was full of joy, telling you not to fix it early in the morning: "No, I can't change it until after you leave the court."

Shen Qin wanted to cry!The damn position!Damn strike zone!Aww~
The ball is coming again!Shen Qinqiang opened his eyes and swung the stick!

pong!The outside world!

One good and two bad!
Shen Qin was really in a hurry, if he was struck out at this time, it's not enough to be laughed at!Listen to those whistling guys in the lounge!asshole!

"Come on, cutie~"

Pooh!Can't wait for me to roll around on the ground!

Shen Qin originally wanted to squint his eyes to pick the ball, but the wind whizzed in through the gap of his glasses, it was really unbearable!
never mind!do not care!If you really want to be K, there is nothing you can do, you might as well go down and change your glasses as soon as possible!

The stick was raised high, but the front legs were not going to be raised, and only at the moment of the pitcher's shot did he suddenly turn his head and strike the stick!
Pong!
The head of the club hit the center of the ball and penetrated between the first and second bases,

Perhaps this is a model of blows for other batterers, but for Shen Qin, it is a thousand miles away from peacetime!He is definitely not a person who bites the ball!

Hiss~ There was a sound of regret in the lounge: "This can all be typed out!"

Coach patted the person who spoke angrily: "What are you talking about? I thought he couldn't get out and changed his glasses. It's good for you, just want to watch a good show." He shouted at the first base : "Qin Qin come on!!!"

As soon as Shen Qin reached the first base, he turned sideways. This position is a blessed place. The wind is at the back, and the whole person can be regarded as comfortable. Hearing the sound, he waved to the lounge. Look, it's better for his own children. How nice!

Coach served as the team's third bat today.

The distribution of stick times is actually very interesting. In the past, the center stick was always the fourth stick, but now it is one, two, three, four, and five. But according to the data, you will find a very strange point.

Even in the new era where all kinds of lines are being tried, everyone still seems to have a fixed stealth mode. A super strong stick is always placed on the second or fourth stick, and it will not be easily changed.

It is reasonable to say that if these two positions are fixed, then from the perspective of relative selection, four-sticks must have a greater advantage than two-sticks, at least from the point of view of RBI.

What's interesting is that after integrating statistics, the RBI difference between the two hits is only one hand away in the whole season, which still doesn't put the top hitters on the premise of the second hit.

What if the second stick is the most powerful cannon?Will there still be a difference in RBI?
And Kara is a star player who has recently retired from the major leagues. Compared with other coaches, he has the best resources at present. Too many problems can be solved with one phone call, so that his coaching methods are closely following The trends of the times are changing with each passing day.

In his personal opinion, he most wants to put Shen Qin on top of the first bat. He has fast legs, first-class ball selection ability, absolute guarantee of hitting rate, and good mentality. Who else is more suitable for the first bat than him? A stick?
In fact, in his opinion, Shen Qin is very similar to Carpenter, the first hitter of the Cardinals. Both of them have accurate ball selection and extremely high slugging rate!The most obvious difference is probably that the little carpenter does not wear striking gloves, while Shen Qin not only has to wear them, but also has to wear an extra layer~ Asians have tender skin!There is no way.

If it is placed in the second bat, although it can advance, if the first bat fails in certain games, it will lose the opportunity to earn RBIs.

The third and fourth sticks are even more tasteless. It's a shame to put those fast legs behind!
After all, it's a pity to be a catcher!This is still a stick, if it wasn't for insisting on being a catcher, why would Kara have any worries about it, just let it go!Don't worry about getting hurt!

In fact, injury problems are the most worrying thing for every coach. UMBC's players are already obedient. Except for occasional problems, most of them can do a good job in rotation. This makes the coaches of other teams jealous. no.

Tsk~ I really want to use this guy as a tool man.

"He just wanted to be a catcher."

Salvador's fluffy words startled Kara, this little bastard likes guessing thoughts the most!Not cute at all!

But this person added another sentence: "Don't worry that I will be unbalanced because of too few games."

How did this little bastard guess?
Salvador was helpless: "Opportunities need to be fought for by oneself. Giving from others is only temporary and meaningless. I don't like to snatch things that originally belong to others."

Kara frowned: "He is only in the second grade, don't say that he still has a chance next year, just because of the relationship between the current exposure and Yuri, he will have countless opportunities to be sent to him by others in the future." Come on, you are different, you don't have much time, if you don't get more impression points before the draft, what should you do?"

"Qin Qin's opportunity comes from his absolute strength. Since ancient times, in the eyes of outsiders, isn't it a catcher who can hit? And when it comes to defense, is he really worse than me? I am more than him because of age and connection. Familiarity with teammates, these are nothing, they can all be increased. No need to do this, I have been ready to be a backup catcher since the first day of squatting.

Kara was so sad, he couldn't bear such words from a catcher player.

He himself went from the minor leagues to the major leagues step by step at the beginning. Of course, the one who talked to them the most during this process was the particularly idle backup catcher. This position is very difficult to fill. A lot of time on the bench means If it’s not good, you will be so lonely that you will explode. No one cares about you in the game every day. If you want to sleep but can’t sleep, you can only stay there.

It is extremely difficult for the catchers themselves to enter the major leagues. Once the team has a stable starter and backup, they will not pull people from the minor leagues. It is really no one can decide whether the running-in period is good or bad.

This is the case for the main players, not to mention the backup catchers of the minor leagues!Can't get in for ten years?It's just too normal.

Just like the Cardinals, who has the highest ceiling and ranks in the top 10 minor league gold-glove catchers in the farm system in terms of catchers, everyone knows that he is good enough to qualify for the major leagues, but because of A Cardinals major league team with a solid catcher Yuri and a steady backup catcher, he can't make it.

Can't even sit on the bench. (Now that Kelly has been traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks as part of the package in exchange for the opponent's All-Star first baseman Goldy, it's a good thing, at least he has a chance to prove himself.)
(In reality, Molina has played for the Cardinals for 15 seasons, and is about to usher in her 16th. The contract will run out until 20 years. The minor league itself has two very good catchers, one can play and the other can defend. Of course, these It can be honed in the big leagues, but they have no chance, molina is too strong.)
(Kelly has been waiting for too many years and can't afford to wait. The catcher is really a painful defensive position. There are many people in their 30s who have finally been pulled into the major leagues and cried bitterly, and they lose it after a few times. up...)
(I have always wanted to do a relevant data analysis. The American League’s strike artillery has always been better than the National League, but the current generation of National League catchers is far better than the American League. I really want to make a comparison in this regard~)

……

Carla sighed: "Young people, don't be brave."

"I don't mean to be brave at all. I'm just preparing for the future. The backup catcher can do a lot of things, even the first main game can't do it at all."

"I can be the best backup, always have a job, adjust the atmosphere of the bench, the dugout and the locker room, integrate the pitchers and fielders, look, I'm doing something like that now? I don't want to Because I am not good enough to drag the team down, it is like the first game last time, if I hadn't squatted and caught Qin Qin that day, even if Qin Qin was in the first bat, we would not have such a result."

"You understand this truth, I understand it, and they understand it. They are just worried about me so they don't say much, but coach, have you ever thought about it? If we are short of this victory in the end? Whether it is me or you, what should we do?" How do you deal with yourself?"

"The substitute is good, easy and at ease. Even if the money is less, but once you stand in the big league, the possibility of losing your job is very small. Even if you keep the basic salary, isn't it about the same as a surgeon?"

"I said that I have been preparing all the time. I didn't say it on the scene. I thought very far. From the backup catcher to the bench coach, everything is within my consideration."

Kara had nothing to say, the child in front of him was neither impulsive nor reckless, he calmly planned every step: "Decided?"

"Of course! Do it all the time!"

when! ! !
A crisp sound interrupted the conversation between the two, and Coach dropped his bat and rushed to first base!
It was too late, the catcher picked up the incomplete ball and passed it to the first baseman, who blocked him out, but Shen Qin was safely sent to second base, forming the current situation of 2 outs and 2 basemen.

Coach ran back to the lounge and picked up his bat for the stick boy: "Porcelo, your frog mirror is unreliable. If you hit it, you will completely cover the range of sight under you, so you can't hit it at all."

Pepe also echoed loudly: "I was like this just now."

"Then don't wear it if you don't want to." Porcello flicked his finger: "Learn from Qin Qin."

This is too much, just now Shen Qin was laughed at by his family for a long time in the strike zone.

"Since you've prepared everything, why can't you get that kind of reliable ski goggles? What the hell is this windproof?"

Porcello sneered: "What windproof? Do you think I prepared it in the middle of the night in advance? This is taken from someone else's laboratory. Where did I get the professional equipment? Don't think too much."

"Then how do you fight?"

"We can't fight, and the opponent can't fight either. After two rounds of tossing, it's over."

ah?A teammate was dumbfounded: "W-what do you mean? Forget it? Rematch the next day? Isn't that tossing around? The referee didn't say anything?"

Porcello cast a sarcasm at the man, and before he could speak, Salvador patted him on the shoulder, and he shut up.

Salvador breathed a sigh of relief and explained to people with a smile that Porsello looked pretty to others, but his mouth was impatient to add fuel to others. It was not possible to let him speak: "This competition is not good for people." For us, it doesn't matter whether we win or lose. It doesn't count anyway. For the other side, it's even more so. If you lose, you won't lose a game. If you don't play, you can still earn one. Why do you think they just randomly selected a starter? Or guess why? The evening game was suddenly changed to the daily game?"

The teammate still wanted to talk, but Porcello covered his mouth with one hand: "Do you still want to yell?"

"No no no! I shut up!"

This kind of thing is simply too common in universities. It is true that the span of the season is less than summer, and various weather factors will inevitably delay the progress of outdoor courts and university studies.It is a reasonable human relationship that you send me off and I send you off.

Of course, it’s not good to talk about this, which is why El Salvador asked everyone to give away tickets in the first place.

Compared with those newcomers, these old people have already gone through this stage. If you don't have to watch the game, it's better to fill the field at the beginning!
(This article mainly introduces this mode, there are quite a lot of such things)

……

After the stupid kid slipped away from El Salvador, he pushed Porcello with his elbow: "Why are you so angry? It's normal for a newcomer to not understand. As for it."

The latter snorted: "Why not? I found out what a bunch of idiots are in the team? Look at the center bats all thrown to the back end today, and it's the situation where this ghost still insists on playing. Knowing what the situation is, why are you still playing there? Just play and learn to joke, god-like pig teammate."

Haha~ El Salvador was overjoyed: "Newcomers, you have to go through one by one to know, but what are you doing to fool them with those champagne-spraying frog mirrors? It's still in the laboratory, those silly babies take it seriously .”

"Since you're all so stupid, let's dress up more, so that IQ and image just match."

"You are gentle and gentle when you talk to Qin Qin, why are you so irritable?"

"It's not the same. The little guy helped me a lot at the time. Although I wanted to register after the game, I thought it was interesting and let him go. I wanted to see what the follow-up routine would be. In the end, he really arranged for me haha~"

Salvador rolled his eyes. This person is too bad: "Don't talk to Qin Qin about this kind of thing, and then you will be unhappy and show your temper."

Speaking of this, Porcello is happy: "I just said it yesterday, but I was not angry, probably because I was accusing him of some things that he did not do well? Oh, I knew it would be interesting to talk about it at another time. .”

"Hey, hey! You are enough!"
