Shout.
Boom.
Shout.
Boom.
"Left thrower?"
"This guy also has a first grade!"
"But compared to that monster freshman just now, the ball has no speed at all..."
"Is this hiding, or is it really just that?"
Watch Sawamura's pitching warm-up practice.
The corners of Coach Matsumoto's mouth twitched slightly: "It's really yours, Coach Kataoka..."
"Are we treated as practice subjects for first-year pitchers?"
Think of this.
Coach Matsumoto said to the players: "It is not clear about the level of the opponent's pitcher, so don't be careless!" "
"But..."
"He's just been on the field, he'll definitely be nervous, just swing the bat!"
All troops: "Yes!" "
A moment later.
The referee raised his hand: "The game begins!" "
Kiryu's first batter, standing in the batter's seat, stared seriously at Sawamura.
"It doesn't matter what ball you throw!"
"I will play the first goal!"
Miyuki also put the glove in the inner corner, and the corner of his mouth smiled: "Throw it with all your might!" "
"Let Kiryu see your signature ball!"
On the pitcher's mound.
Sawamura took a deep breath.
Then he held a baseball in his hand.
The right foot is raised high at the side.
Followed by.
The posture stretches out.
The right hand is like a wall, preventing the loss of physical strength.
"Towards the ground..."
"Throw it hard..."
With Miyuki's guidance in mind, he thought about it.
Sawamura deliberately threw the ball towards the ground.
Shout!
Boom!
"Good ball!"
The referee announced aloud.
"!!!"
Kiryu's batters were dumbfounded.
"This... What's going on with this guy's pitching position? "
"I can't see the ball point at all!"
"By the time I saw the baseball, it had already flown in front of me!"
On the pitcher's mound.
Sawamura looked at his left hand in surprise.
"The feeling just now..."
"Haha..."
"It was the perfect straight shot against the Black Pavilion at that time!"
Looking at the happy Sawamura.
Miyuki said, "It's just a good shot, now is not the time to be happy!" "
"This is your last test to join the First team!"
"You must treat it well!"
"Sawamura!"
At the same time.
With the joy of just now, Sawamura grabbed the ball with both hands and raised it high.
"Towards the ground-"
"Throw it hard!"
However!
For batsmen who are mentally prepared!
This kind of 'straight ball' with a speed of less than 130 per hour is still easy to hit!
While!
A crisp sound.
The baseball was hit in the direction of the right field.
"Hmm..."
"What's going on?"
"I obviously grabbed the dessert!"
"Why didn't you fly to the right field fence?"
"Is it too late to swing the bat?"
Kiryu's first batter, despite hitting a baseball, was dissatisfied.
He felt he could hit further.
"Great!"
"One man out!"
Sawamura turned his head with a look of excitement, but found that the expected killing did not appear.
Because the baseball landed smoothly on the ground.
"Huh?"
Sawamura was stunned.
"Very good!"
"It's an attack in the right outfield!"
"Continue the offensive! Murata! "
Kiryu's rest area erupted with an astonishing cry of support.
Obviously.
Because there was not a single safe hit in the previous five innings.
So now even if it's just a first-base hit, it's very exciting for them.
"The ball path is too high..."
"In addition, the route is too good to fight, so it is easy to be beaten out by the other party with brute force!"
Miyuki also frowned slightly, analyzing the situation just now.
"Sure enough..."
"Sawamura's ball control is still not very good..."
"It's not easy to get exactly where I want to be..."
The bucktooth runner at first base looked solemnly at the second hitter Murata: "Be careful, Murata..."
"That guy's ball speed is even faster than expected!"
Apparently.
This bucktooth runner has not yet discovered Asad's ball.
"Sawamura's famous scene is about to appear again!"
Asad, who stayed in the middle field, looked at Sawamura expectantly.
Really.
It didn't take long.
Sawamura passed the ball to Tetsuya Yuki at first base in order to eliminate the bucktooth runner at first base.
"Whahaha!"
"Fooled!"
"How!"
"This is the first base throw ball passed by Senior Chris!"
Looking at the extremely proud Sawamura.
Everyone at the scene had a question mark on their faces.
Only Asad couldn't help but laugh.
"Hahahahaha~~~"
"Hahahahaha~~~"
"Sawamura!"
"You fouled!"
Sawamura was stunned suddenly: "Huh? "
Right now.
The first base referee pointed at Sawamura and loudly announced: "Pitcher vicious foul!" "
"Runner on second base!"
After listening to this, Sawamura shouted unconvinced: "For... Why?! "
"I obviously kept still, and the series of movements was also smooth!"
Yuki throws the ball back to Sawamura, helplessly explaining, "Your foot has been completely raised inward!" "
"No matter how you look at it, it's a foul, right?"
Coach Matsumoto was also confused by Sawamura's behavior: "Hey! That first grade didn't even understand the detailed rules of containment? "
After listening to Yuejo's words, Sawamura was immediately dumbfounded: "Oops! Discredited Senior Chris! "
Chris in the rest area looked embarrassed: "Sorry, he's a guy with a slow receptivity..."
Coach Kataoka, who had personally experienced it, nodded a little sadly: "Well, I understand..."
...
On the pitch.
Miyuki couldn't help but laugh too.
"Hahaha!"
"This guy really didn't live up to my expectations!"
But.
Laugh back to laugh.
But I still have to let Sawamura put aside what he just did.
Thereupon.
Miyuki called out to Sawamura and spoke, "Don't be worried!" "
"Adjust your state!"
"Concentrate on dealing with the beaters!"
Sawamura nodded heavily, then looked at Miyuki's glove position.
When I saw that it was a position with a low inside corner, I couldn't help but be surprised: "Why is it an inside corner again?" "
But.
Although Miyuki gloves are placed low.
But Sawamura, who had very poor ball control, still threw the ball high in the inside corner.
Of course.
This was also expected by Miyuki.
Or rather!
If you don't put your gloves in a low position, but in a high position, Sawamura's ball may fly from the top of his head to his back!
And once there is a big bang!
That bucktooth runner at second base will definitely not miss the good opportunity to steal third base!
