Chapter 83 The Heisei Monster with Burning Arms
(The transition is over, friends who don’t want to read these can choose to skip, in fact, the impact is not big. The main reason is that I have made an outline, and if I don’t write these contents, I can’t follow them up.)
As the Koshien that appears most often in anime, Shen Qin and Kochi who did not catch up with the Koshien game were a little disappointed. After all, there is only one wall about comics in the stadium, and some comics related to Koshien are displayed~ such as baseball Heroes and Diamond Aces, etc., and the rest are basically souvenirs and player introductions related to the Hanshin Tigers.

Even the pictures of the players are posted on the outer wall.

However, the three balls at the entrance are interesting, they are the balls from Japan, WBC, and MLB. Shen Qin can't see anything about the ball from BWC, but there are some differences between the balls from Japan and the United States in terms of size and seam.

Shen Qin jokingly said to Coach: "So there is no pine tar in NPB?"

"Ha~" Kou Chi laughed out loud. Although Shen Qin learned to be cold and humorous, he was still very happy. He heard Ji Jia and the others talk about Shen Qin's situation. In short, it is very important to maintain his happy mood. Being able to joke should be... …its not bad, right?
"Do you want to buy souvenirs? This is a rare visit?" Chen Silu turned into a salesman, which reminded Shen Qin of the many news stories about tour guides buying and selling forcibly and receiving kickbacks, and he shook his head. Of course, the reason was that he and Kou Chi were loyal celebrities. I'm obsessed!How can you collect other teams!

However, the two of them still bought a uniform ball for Nikko, which is still worth buying.

This made Chen Silu look a little sideways. After all, the official ball here costs more than 3000 yen a piece, but in fact, a good game ball is only about 900 yen, which is a bit of a waste!
Outside the souvenir shop, there were many standing signs of players, all of them tall and burly. Shen Qin thought about his height in his previous life and was speechless: "Are they all that tall?"

Chen Silu spoke convincingly: "If the pitcher is tall, the pitch will drop even more! Anyway, good pitchers are tall! Fielders are also the same! Small people generally have no advantage!"

Shen Qin was simply lamenting. He didn't expect Chen Silu to explain it this way. He didn't agree with this statement. Although height is an advantage, it is not the only one. There are good pitchers who are not tall!
Even the saying that the height of the catcher should not be too high is bullshit when taken as an example at Yuli's altitude!

Besides, do all outfielders have to be tall?There must be a limit to this high!There are no players less than 1.7 meters tall! (Writing this, I really want to write about the 1-meter Atubo! But at this point in time, he hasn’t shined yet!)

If it is a little taller, there is Ichiro Suzuki, the god of baseball in Japan, who is only a 176 slender man!Is his laser shoulder, jumping ability, judgment and even striking ability inferior to those strong men in the United States?
A few people left the souvenir area and went to look at the exhibition area of ​​Koshien. The wild ball wall here displays the commemorative balls of all the teams that played in Koshien. More than 4000 baseballs are neatly arranged, which is very spectacular!
Behind it is a display of all the famous games of Koshien, the most central position is the 'Heisei Monster' Daisuke Matsusaka.This set of jerseys on display is the jersey worn by Matsusaka when he defeated PL Academy with 17 balls in 250 innings in the semi-finals. Four consecutive days of shooting and throwing no hits and no points in the finals completely burned the miracle of the arm.

Shen Qin felt his arm hurt when he saw it: "Is the coach an idiot? This made him shoot? Don't you want it?" At this moment, Shen Qin deeply realized what Paul said at the beginning. Don't care about the player's future career at all.

Coach also had lingering fears and voted for four consecutive days!What a concept!Only Chen Silu looked at the two of them with some contempt: "You don't know much about baseball, right? This is a unique honor in the history of Jiashien, and he is also in the major leagues now! It is very successful! Besides! He has great talent. Strong willpower! How can the coach replace him? I must insist on myself! That's why we are lucky enough to witness such a miracle now!"

... Shen Qin was speechless!This girl seems to be a quasi-fan, and she knows a lot of history, but why does she feel that she is a cuter than herself?
"Daisuke Matsusaka~ After playing the WBC (World Baseball Classic, there will be an introduction later) in 09, it has degenerated a bit. I had TJ surgery last season...whether I can return to the beginning is still a question... I remember that it will be next season It's been a year since the contract~ tsk tsk~" Coach rubbed his shoulders as he spoke, obviously frightened by the record.

Chen Silu snorted: "It is precisely because of his leadership that Japan can win the second consecutive championship!"

Gotta~ This is a fan of Matsuzaka Daisuke!Shen Qin decided to shut up!
However, it’s terrifying. Shen Qin still admires Japan’s inheritance and emphasis on baseball culture. If the country can achieve this level, in terms of population density, it will always be able to pick out many talents!It's a pity, even for me, an 'old man', this is the first time I've touched baseball in two lifetimes!It is really……

……

Originally, Chen Silu wanted to take the two of them to visit the shrine next to the stadium, but unfortunately they got a call from the school team. Because it was during the winter vacation, the school did not provide a bus to pick up the players, so the team members had to take the tram by themselves this time. Chen Silu had already agreed on a time, so they could only rush to the agreed place.

Fortunately, Jiashiyuan is a big station, and it is convenient to go anywhere, so the few people didn't waste too much time. As soon as they arrived at the place, they saw a group of players and managers wearing uniform uniforms and carrying equipment bags waiting.

"Hey, it's this university!"

Chen Silu looked back at Shen Qin: "Have you heard of it? Our school is very..."

Shen Qin raised the mobile phone in front of Chen Silu: "I just searched for Tokyo University baseball and jumped out of these six universities. Your school is right here..."

Chen Silu was speechless for a moment, even if he wanted to show off, he was blocked.

In fact, Shen Qin has certainly heard about Waseda University. In his previous life, many people regarded Waseda as the number one institution of higher learning in Japan, although Japanese people have many different opinions.

However, this is the first time Shen Qin has heard about the baseball game of the six universities, and he is quite interested: "The universities in the United States also have similar games. I don't know how the two sides compare."

"That's it!" Chen Silu has always felt that Shen Qin is a child with facial paralysis, and he is cold. At first, he only thought of being a compatriot, and at such a young age, he ran out to play with friends, and he was a little worried. He thought of going out to help his compatriots That's why I proposed to take the two of them for a walk, but I didn't expect that the two of them were interested in baseball, and they just happened to hit their own hobbies. He explained.

"Hey, our school belongs to the baseball league of six universities in Tokyo, and there is also one in Kyushu, which is considered the top game among Japanese universities! Many of these players will join professional baseball in the future. The league in Tokyo originated from the Zaoqing War. It’s between our school and Keio. This co-study is with Keio’s.”

"That's it." When it comes to professional baseball, Shen Qin is really interested. The timing of coming to Japan this time is not right. He thought he would not be able to watch any games. Now he can watch the games between two famous universities, even for practice. The game is also good.

Chen Silu said again: "If you have the chance, you can come again during the competition! The standard is very high, how about your place? How is it?"

"NCAA games have always had high ratings, especially baseball." Shen Qin recalled the March Madness not long after arriving in Japan last year. No matter what media they were, they were all rushing to report on it: "Because of the time of the game, The media calls it March Madness. If you want to say something... there was a survey on whether to watch the NCAA finals or the NBA finals. Most people chose to watch the NCAA, and during the broadcast, the president even announced that he would participate in the war. The news was only given a small frame and brought over (real people and real stories!)"

Chen Silu clicked his tongue, but in his heart he was thinking: the child who looked at the serious and unsmiling child turned out to be an inner braggart!Who would believe it when it was so big!Who doesn't know that the NBA is popular all over the world!
God knows this is really wronging Shen Qin, the nba name is so famous here is really because of its high popularity in Asia!
