Chapter 36: Unlock!

The duel continued, with no Ball Two Strikes.

At this time, Miyuki had completely calmed down and planned to fight steadily, find the flaws of Kominato Ryosuke, and then kill him with one hit.

But he didn't know that while he was on the pitching mound, Chris, who was the referee, was also giving Kominato a Hint.

"The next ball, it's almost there!"

There was a smile on Ryosuke's face, and he could hardly see his eyes when he smiled.

"I think so too."

Competing against a pitcher like Sawamura with several weapons in his hands, entanglement is very dangerous. Even if Ryosuke was confident in his swing skills, he wouldn't do it rashly.

Sawamura and Miyuki were thinking about how to get a Strikeout, or a clear goofy and grounder. Only then can they say that they have solved their opponents!

And Ryosuke thought very simply, he only hit base when he hit the ball solidly.

So when Miyuki came back, Ryosuke Kominato held his bat short, aimed at the first Pitch Sawamura threw, and was ready to play.

Of course, with his acting skills, Miyuki couldn't see any flaws.

With two Strikes, he was chased, and as long as the ball entered the strike zone, Ryosuke Kominato had to swing.

The next ball: a Moving ball to the inner corner, the ball path should be high!

In this position, the Batter is still not very comfortable at swinging. And the ball is also likely to be a slow-fly high ball.

On the pitcher mound, Sawamura nodded slightly and then pitched.

Whoosh!

Seeing the Pitcher throwing the ball, Kominato also swings the bat decisively.

His swing is completely a natural reaction of his body, and his brain has no thoughts at all.

Ping!

The white ball was hit, landed roughly between first and second base, and bounced off the dam.

Chris nodded: "Hit!"

There's nothing wrong with the ball being hit.

The Catcher's face was a little ugly, and Ryosuke Kominato didn't even think about getting entangled in the ball just now.

If he had known earlier, he would have killed Ryosuke Kominato with a Straight Fastball.

It's a pity that in this world, there is no if, when he thinks Kominato Ryosuke will choose to entangle, the Pitcher can't keep throwing Straight Fastballs. That kind of ball is too burdensome for the pitcher's fingers.

If this is not the case, Sawamura can completely throw all the Straight balls that he wants to throw and throw them all Straight Fastballs. In that case, Sawamura's pitching ability will be improved to a higher level.

No matter how much Sawamura and Miyuki didn't want a batter to hit before they faced Tetsu-san, the current situation is still the same.

No one out, 1 hit lost.

In this situation, they must fight to the death.

On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura's fighting spirit continued.

And the Catcher, Miyuki, is also very motivated.

It was almost the same situation as the previous round, so both of them were preoccupied with preparations to fight the Captain in a head-to-head battle.

Miyuki pondered for a while and gave the young Pitcher the signal for the first ball.

On the edge of the outside corner Straight Fastball!

Sawamura has a few ball paths that can suppress Yuuki Tetsuya 100%. If you want to solve him, the best way is to mix the pitches to disrupt Yuuki's attention.

On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura frowned subconsciously. He had an ominous premonition, but he could tell him why he couldn't tell.

He shook his head intentionally, but he felt that it was meaningless to shake his head.

No matter what kind of pitch Miyuki Calls, the Yuuki Tetsuya has the possibility of hitting. As long as they put the ball in the strike zone, they can't avoid that risk.

In this way, we can only use the ball to decide the outcome directly!

Let's see if the swing that the Captain of Seidou has honed for three years is better, or if Sawamura Eijun's pitching is better.

After realizing this, Eijun let out a sigh of relief, and then the whole person became fierce again.

Judging from the momentum of the pitcher and batter alone, Sawamura was still under pressure to form.

If you want, come on!

Whoosh!

White ball, flying to the outside corner.

In the strike zone, while the ball was coming close, Yuuki Tetsuya didn't move at all.

At this time, the baseball was constantly approaching, approaching the batter's reach.

coming!

On the strike zone, the statue-like Yuuki suddenly came to life. In his eyes, apart from the flying white ball, there was nothing else.

It's now!

Seeing the baseball approach, Yuuki Tetsuya swings like a thunderbolt.

Fast, faster than Sawamura's pitch, unbelievably fast.

"Ping!"

The small white ball was hit, passed through the back of Sawamura, smashed hard on the dam, and then embedded in the mound of the dam.

One Swing, one hit!

Third round, third grade, win!

This neat result caught people off guard.

Sawamura, who had looked like a demon before in the head of the third year, disappeared after this Swing.

Miyuki, the Catcher, looked at the Yuuki Tetsuya in shock.

That swing just now was amazing!

"Should I say as expected of the Captain!"

Sawamura Eijun lost, with sheer power.

'I don't know if that guy's confidence was hit!'

Miyuki turned to look at Eijun on the pitcher's mound, thinking maliciously in his heart.

Although Sawamura is a stinky bastard, there is nothing wrong with accepting the baptism of the senior. But Miyuki was still upset that his ball was hit so badly.

The Pitch that Sawamura threw, was not bad.

But baseball is like that, even if you Pitch well, the ball can still be hit. It's not like just because you play well, you will get the Outs you want.

This is the truth!

Chris, the Referee, also looked at Sawamura worriedly.

I don't know if he was okay or not.

Sawamura's experience is smooth until now, if he got hit bad…

"TSK, it's amazing!"

On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura already fully knew his current strength, his current shortcomings, and the information that Chris had leaked.

'Sure enough, if I want to lead Seidou into Koshien, or even dominate the country, it is not enough to rely on the current level of pitching.'

Time to develop some real Breaking-balls!

Now Sawamura's pitching, although there are a lot of pitches, but generally based on the Straight ball system, which is why Kominato Ryosuke and Yuuki Tetsuya can accurately capture his pitching.

Among the Powerhouses in high school, there may not be many Batters like Tetsu-san, but they will never be absent.

If you want to fight against these monsters, it is not enough to rely on the Straight ball system.

"Start, the fourth round. Miyuki-senpai, please come over here, I have something to test."

Sawamura made up his mind to Unlock a real Breaking-balls.

"UGAAAH!"

In this regard, Masuko Toru is very dissatisfied with the result.

He hasn't played yet, how come the battle is over?

On the other side, Ikari-chan news started to spread, and the news reached Kataoka, which took time.

When Sawamura and the others were about to start the fourth round, Kataoka just pushed open the door of the office, ready to unleash hell on the troublemakers.
