The Return of Diamond Ace Pitcher

In middle school, bunting is only an aid.

In this big situation, it is very difficult for Nishimura to practice short hits so well.

"This guy is also someone who knows what he wants!"

Zecun looked at Xicun with admiration in his eyes.

Among the hundreds of thousands of baseball teenagers, that rare genius occasionally appears.They know what they want since they were young and have a clear position for themselves.Just like Nishimura, the reason why he can practice short hits is because he combined his strengths to chart a path for his future.

He is fast and a shortstop. He has a good hitting strength, but his long-term ability is not strong.

Combining these characteristics, he honed the strike bunting.

His target is a speed infielder!

There are relatively few such people, but as long as one appears, they are very powerful.

Such an opponent, Sawamura did not dare to be careless, signaled his friends to move forward on defense, and then shot the ball.

Seeing Sawamura's shot, Nishimura immediately took the bat back, and then swung the bat again.

Skilled cheating!

"Ping!"

After being hit, the white ball flew over Yamaguchi's head.If Yamaguchi does not move forward, there is a high probability that the ball will be caught.

The baseball landed and Nishimura ran to first base.

Two outs and someone at first base.

On the pitcher's hill, Sawamura, who lost a hit, didn't care.

Fighters like Nishimura who are skilled in all kinds of skills are very difficult to deal with.Just like the cheating, Sawamura must choose the most powerful straight ball in order to deal with short hits.This kind of straight ball is the most powerful. After hitting the bat, it rebounds quickly. The most important thing is the powerful ball, which is not easy for the player to unload.

But in this way, Zecun's ball type was also exposed.As long as the hitter is skilled in striking skills, he can completely retract the bat and re-bite the straight shot.

Although Nishimura was on base, Sawamura performed well.

He struck out Yokozuna's second shot after Nishimura and refreshed his number of strikeouts to fourteen!

Chapter 013 Seventeen Strikes

In the second round of the Kanto Conference, Akagi Middle School played in the Yokozuna Middle School competition, which went to the second half of the sixth game.

Akagi Middle School offensive!

It was the ninth batting turn, Yamazaki.

Without any suspense, Yamazaki was struck out.With Yamazaki's strikeout, Yokozuna's ace Uesugi also won his sixth strikeout in this game.

Here I want to say something objectively. Don't be affected by the pictures in the comics and animations, where the strikers are as simple as eating and drinking.

The real situation is of course not the case, especially in the Kanto Conference, where strong teams compete against each other, it is not easy to win a strikeout.

Generally speaking, as long as the hitter can keep up with the pitcher's ball speed, the probability of his strikeout is not high.

In the vast majority of cases, the player hits the ball, and the pitcher relies on the strength of the defense to solve the opponent.The average pitcher throws the ball, a game with three to five strikeouts is very good!

A pitcher can really rely on his own strength to win a strikeout. Generally speaking, there are only two situations. One is that the pitcher has a very fast ball speed, and his ball can't be hit by the hitter!

Generally speaking, this kind of pitcher is easier to get a strikeout.

There is another, that is, the change ball is sharp enough.A very sharp change of the ball, but also easy to miss the beater swing.

For example, it is like Jiang Guxiao in the original book.He is very easy to win strikeouts because of his very fast ball speed.It is precisely because of his characteristics that he can be in the Qingdao within a short time and become famous throughout the country!

In the real situation, there are not no such monster players, but there are very few.Even Sawamura himself, if he used ordinary straight shots to decide the outcome.

The strikeouts he can win in Yokozuna's hands are probably one of the few.For a Yokozuna hitter who can keep up with a ball speed of 135 kilometers, Sawamura's 130 kilometers ball speed is really nothing.

You want to let them take the hit, which is really hard to say.After all, Sawamura's ball power and possession are there. Even if he uses ordinary straight shots to decide the outcome, it is not easy for Yokozuna's hitters to get hits.

But even if they can't get a hit, they can still hit the ball into the court.

In this game, Sawamura was able to win so many strikeouts.The most important reason is actually the position he started at the beginning. He used a yokozuna hitter to pitch the ball in a strange position that he had never expected, stupefied to give the national hegemon a routine.

Those nine strikeouts were the beginning of a nightmare for Yokozuna.

When Zecun returned to his normal position in the fourth round, he was actually a hitter from Yokozuna, and only then did he contact Zecun's pitch in the first round.

"Ping!"

"Out!"

After Yamazaki was out, Oda hit the infield to roll the earth.The ball was caught by Yokozuna's shortstop Nishimura and sent to first base. Oda was blocked out.

With two outs and no one on base, it was Yamaguchi's turn.

Yamaguchi swung his bat directly for the first ball, shot the infield high and was caught.

Three outs, offense and defense swap!

At the end of the six rounds, Akagi Middle School and Yokozuna Middle School's score is still 0:0!

At this time, Sawamura felt bad!

Although the audience still supported Akagi one-sidedly, the situation at Akagi Middle School was not optimistic.

For the strikers, Sawamura almost didn't keep his hands on every hitter in Yokozuna in this game!In fact, the strength of all the members of Yokozuna Middle School is very good. If Sawamura wants to retain his strength, it is likely that someone will be taken into the limelight.It is also to eliminate this hidden danger, so Sawamura's pitch in this game is very hard, and his physical exertion is much greater than in any previous game.

On the contrary, Uesugi has been conserving his stamina since the beginning of the game. In the first few rounds, he was completely fished. In the latter few rounds, apart from dealing with Fengxiang and Sawamura, he went all out, and he also had reservations about the others in Akagi. of.

In this way, not only does he throw fewer shots than Zecun, his physical exertion is also much smaller than Zecun.

After Sawamura was reborn, he had only exercised for only two years, and his endurance had no advantage over Uesugi, who had been playing baseball.

In this case, the longer the game is delayed, the more disadvantaged Akagi is.

Even if from now on, Sawamura has restrained, and with his physical strength, he will reach the ninth game, which is estimated to be the limit.On the contrary, Uesugi on the other side had much more physical reserves than Zecun.

"It must be determined as soon as possible!"

I think so, but Sawamura also knows that it is not that simple to tell the winner.

First of all, they must ensure that in the seventh game, against the core hitters of Yokozuna Middle School, they will not lose points!

Secondly, it is necessary to ensure that in the second half of the seventh game, when it is the turn of the Akagi core, that is, when Fengxiang and Zecun can score points.

Only when these two conditions are met at the same time, Akagi has a chance to win.Otherwise, don't look at the overwhelming momentum of Akagi now, and all the audience will support Akagi like crazy.Once the game drags on for a long time, Akagi Middle School's odds of winning are very slim.

This game Sawamura is already super god!Anyone who has played the game knows that when teammates are super god, the game is very easy to win.And the more early, the more obvious this advantage.

Once the game is dragged to the late stage and the teammates are pitted again, no matter how strong the super-sweet teammate is, there will be times when he can't move.

This is the current situation in Zecun!Originally, the gap between Akagi Middle School and Yokozuna Middle School was huge, but the current evenly matched position was the result of Sawamura’s own madness.

Once the game is extended, Zecun's role will become smaller and smaller.At that time, Akagi Middle School might be really helpless.

Two winning conditions thought before returning to Sawamura!

If Akagi wants to win, then first cannot let Yokozuna score in the seventh game, which means to block Yokozuna's core line of play.

This is not difficult for Zecun.

The difficulty is the second point, how to get points from Uesugi's hands.

Uesugi's bullets, even Fengxiang and Zecun, were not sure they could hit the ball.

Of course, this is not the most desperate. The most desperate is that no one can connect with Fengxiang and Zecun.

Even if Sawamura and Fengxiang had good luck, Uesugi himself died again, and the two hit consecutive hits, the probability of scoring was not high.Besides, Feng Xiang is really on base, will Uesugi face Zecun?

Normally, the probability of Akagi winning points from Uesugi and Yokozuna is really not high.

Unless they mess around, otherwise...

When he stepped up to the pitcher's hill, Sawamura's expression became solemn.

These little guys at Yokozuna Middle School deserve to have won national championships.In the face of a stalemate game, 14 strikeouts, still able to remain unmoved, calmly show strength!

I don’t know, 17 strikeouts, will they shake you up a little?

...

Chapter 014 The Fourth Straight Ball!

When Sawamura realized that in a normal game, the Akagi Middle School baseball team had no chance of winning.He immediately decided to strike out the core of Yokozuna Middle School.

Speaking of it, this is the second head-to-head match between Sawamura and Yokozuna's three-four-five. Through previous games, these beaters from Yokozuna Middle School have gradually adapted to Sawamura's pitching.

If Sawamura just wants to solve them, he can use a completely different pitching rhythm from before.Now Yokozuna's hitters have just adapted to the fast pace of Sawamura. At this time, Sawamura slows down the rhythm, and it is very easy for Sawamura to use defense to get the number of outs.

After all, Sawamura is also an expert in this aspect of letting the players hit the ball and relying on defense to get the number of outs.

But this kind of pitching, there is no way to help Akagi win.Yokozuna's hitters could not hit Sawamura's ball, but now they can hit Sawamura's ball. Not only will they not be intimidated by Sawamura's pitch, they will have more and more confidence in the game.

In such a situation, for Zecun, who is losing strength, it is tantamount to chronic suicide.

If Akagi wants to win, then he must use all the situations that he can use to put pressure on Yokozuna and completely crush this group of imperial ghosts.

In fact, Zecun also knows that such an approach may not be effective.After all, the reason why Yokozuna hasn't collapsed so far is not because Sawamura's strikeouts are not enough, but because they haven't lost points yet.

No matter how superb Sawamura's pitching is, it is impossible for Yokozuna to give up resistance when the score is 0:0.If Akagi could score points first in this game, then the current Yokozuna would be over!

Knowing that this is the case, Zecun has no other choice. After all, if they can score, they would have scored it a long time ago. Where can it be delayed until now?

Now Sawamura can only hope that his own risk strikeout will slightly shake Yokozuna's determination.

At this time, I didn't expect to say that Yokozuna would collapse. As long as they shake their beliefs, Akagi Middle School will have a chance.

Sawamura made up his mind to strike out his opponent, and Yokozuna Middle School couldn't give up the attacking opportunity in the seventh game.

"Up to now, we have to admit that the opponent that was blocked in front of us is our unprecedented strong enemy!"

Supervisor Takeda affirmed Sawamura's strength.

In fact, he doesn't need to be sure. Yokozuna's players also know that Eijun Sawamura is definitely the strongest pitcher they have ever encountered.

With their brilliant record before Yokozuna Middle School, they have also played against other top pitchers. Those kings are definitely not as capable as Sawamura.

If you don't talk about it far away, just say the seven seas of Tianlong Temple.That's also a nationally famous super pitcher, what was the result of the match against Yokozuna Junior High.

Lost six hits, three points!

The opponent is the overlord of the country, Qi Haiyao's achievements, and the past also explained, deserved the name of one of his twelve heavenly kings.

But Qi Haiyao's performance is compared with Zecun, so...

The gap is huge!

If Nanami Haruka and Uesugi Ken, they are already the top players in the country, then what is Sawamura?

The big devil?

These thoughts flashed through Yokozuna's mind. They didn't know that many of the audience, fans, and reporters had the same thoughts as them.

This is something later, so I won't mention it for now, just talk about Yokozuna's tactical arrangements.

Supervisor Takeda still has two brushes. At this time, he also faintly discovered some small flaws in Sawamura that could not even be called weaknesses.

"The last two times we hit the ball steadily, it was because of short hits and cheating! Although I don't know why Sawamura's pitching is more ordinary when facing short hits, but this is our opportunity. As long as the first hitter can get in If we hit the base, we will score the first point by hitting the ball and adding the base. Although Akagi Middle School's defense is good, there are still many unskilled points in the connection. We have a great chance of scoring!"

With that, Supervisor Takeda looked at the third mountain.

Short hitting and cheating is easy to say, and Sawamura has developed this skill to the point of a magical skill.But the real situation is definitely not the case, otherwise such a striking posture would have run rampant throughout the universe.

Short-term scams are very limited.As mentioned earlier, in order to hit the ball better, the player needs to have a fixed hitting posture at the beginning of practice.For such a hitter, if the bat is retracted and then swung, they may not be able to hit the ball at all.Moreover, this striking posture also limits the striker's strike power...

On the whole, don't look at this skill is not very eye-catching, but it is not that anyone can use it.

Even in the Big Mac Yokozuna Middle School, there are only two people who have such strike skills.

One is the all-around player Nishimura Moriki, and the other is their third ball, Yamanaka Kanosuke known as the wise general.

If Takeda's analysis is correct, it is a real opportunity for Yokozuna.

Is Takeda's analysis correct?

Really correct!
