The next day Alex see Sawamura running around every were Chris was and being a supper idiot. It got quiet annoying. When Alex was pitching to Chris in the ball pen Sawamura always came in to it and ask Chris to help him and Chris said for him to pitch a ball and gave him a scenario and then Sawamura throw the pitch.
Chris- That was no good. That was a home run.
Sawamura- Why. That was a good ball
Chris- Because the batter was Barry Bonds.
Sawamura- A foreigner.
Chris- Why didn't you try to find out how the batter was before pitching. Have you forgotten that home run that Masuko batted with brute force. You can't pitch fast ball's like Alex and Furuya, nor can you pitch curve ball's like Tanba and Alex. What's your strong point.
Sawamura- Strong point. So what's my strong point.
Chris- Think about it your self you idiot. Alex that is it for to. Go and practice the rest your self.
Alex- Yes. Thank you Chris-senpai.
After Chris left Alex continued to train his pitching by him self. After that he went to the batter cage and hit some balls and after 2 hours he called it a day and went back to his room. The next day Sawamura was asking every one what his strong point was. Some people said that his strong point was that he was a idiot, lacking common sense. The next day the 1st and 2nd strings have games. At fields A- Seidou ( 1st strings ) vs Tietou and Seidou ( 2nd strings ) vs Komashiro. The 1st strings got off to a good start and got 3 runs in the first innings. For the 2nd strings idiot Sawamura was the starter pitcher. Alex was not playing today as the coach asked if he could sit out for now and to keep him as a secret weapon so he was watching the 2nd strings game with Chris-senpai by his side. Sawamura was getting hit all over that it was not funny.
Alex- What is that idiot doing.
Chris- Mmm...
Alex- Ooo. Look team fight on the mound.
Miss Rei- Sawamura-kun. We are switching pitchers. Get off the mound.
Alex watched as Sawamura came off the mound and sat down on the bench by Chris-senpai and lowered his head. It was silent around them but after some time Chris said.
Chris- You were to concerned about the control you lost the pitching power. You straight pitch doesn't even reach 130 km. Of course they can hit them. I told you that you are different form Tanba and Furuya. Remember your loss today then you can improve much more.
Sawamura-.........
Chris- Precise control and a fast pitch. One dose not learn this over night. But if you can be patient and focus on your fundamentals right now, you will definitely be able to make the best of your own style.
Alex just listened to Chris talking to the idiot Sawamura and nodded his head in agreement. When Chris finished talking Alex looked over to the 1st strings game and saw Furuya coming off the mound covering his pitching hand in his glove.
Alex- Mmm, Furuya is coming off and is covering his pitching hand. I wonder why.
Chris- He must of injured it. Hmm, that's not good.
Alex- Looks like Tanba is going to pitch for a bit.
The 1st strings won and the 2nd strings tied ( I think, not to sure ) there game. After the games finished Alex and the idiot Sawamura were running around the field with a tire tide to them. When it was dark and Sawamura could not run anymore he lied down on the filed and field when Furuya came to him.
