Chapter 113: Core Weapon!

In the evening, the conference room of the baseball club of Seidou High School.

Facing the video, Takashima explained the strength of Inashiro and the pitching of Narumiya.

"The most important thing in the game is to conquer Narumiya Mei and get points from him."

In the end, the big screen stayed on the image of Narumiya Mei. Next to the image is the distribution of Narumiya's previous pitches.

Straight ball: 42 balls!

Forkball: 3 balls!

Slider: 7 balls!

Changeup: 4 balls!

"The Breaking ball is used very little, and only 14 Breaking balls are used in five innings. More means is to use Crossfires, which can be said to be his Core weapon."

Core weapons!

This word successfully attracted the attention of the players of Seidou.

The power of a pitcher's Core weapons should not be taken easily. Especially for a pitcher like Narumiya, the course that he can use as a Core weapon is naturally even more extraordinary. But of course, such a ball is also relatively easy to target.

What are Core weapons? Core weapons meet at least two requirements. The first is that the weapon must be convenient and easy to use which means that he can use it as long as he can stand. Second, this weapon is regularly used.

Since it is regularly used, he will pitch it more, which is the easiest to target.

To deal with a pitcher like Narumiya Mei who has a lot of breaking balls, it is definitely more effective to be able to identify a ball path with a higher probability of appearing to target.

It's just a pity that such a ball path is rare.

Crossfire, precisely one of them.

"Don't take the problem too simple! The Crossfire thrown from the left pitcher is a diagonal line when it comes over. The ball feels like touching the batter, and it is not easy to hit."

Chris looked at the sparkling eyes of the Seidou players and immediately poured cold water on their hopes.

The Crossfire of Narumiya is not new, he has used it before.

In the past, Inashiro Industrial had encountered a lot of Famous High Schools, and there were countless more who were waiting to catch Narumiya's weakness and defeated him in one fell swoop.

but that didn't happen, why?

Narumiya don't throw the Crossfire for anyone. He only throws the Crossfire to the batter he thinks he can get the number of Outs from. To really deal with the powerful batters, Narumiya also has other ways.

After all, he does not only have Core weapons in his hands.

"With a ball speed of 150 km/h, including the Crossfire, there are four kinds of Breaking balls."

Straight, Slider, Fork, Change-up, Crossfire.

There is no need to say more about the sharpness of the Breaking ball. With Narumiya Mei's level, the Breaking ball he throws should not be underestimated.

Add at least 150 km/h of ball speed and precise ball control to this.

It is generally difficult to hone the ball control to a very fine level if the ball speed is fast.

And when the ball control is good, the speed of the ball will be slower.

Unbelievably, Narumiya Mei has these two advantages together.

You can say that Narumiya has the ball speed of Furuya, Sawamura's breaking balls, and Kawakami's ball control.

Of course, in these three items, there is a slight gap between him and these three players. For example, Narumiya's ball speed, although it is 150 km/h, is still a little less than that of Furuya.

He has four or five breaking balls, but compared with Sawamura, this is cute.

As for ball control, he is really on par with Kawakami.

The great thing about Narumiya Mei is that although he is not the top in every item, he puts all of these things together and blends them into his pitching.

This created the first Pitcher in Kanto.

"Sawamura, you are the Ace in our team. Say what do you think about Inashiro's lineup." Chris changed the talk from Narumiya to the lineup for now.

Instead of continuing to babble about how awesome Narumiya is, they should talk about another important point which is the lineup of Inashiro.

"Every batter at Inashiro High School is composed of star players, and no batter can be underestimated. Faced with such an opponent, you must be careful when pitching, and you must be rigorous when fielding…"

Sawamura was serious and started his own long-winded mode.

"Don't talk about these useless things, say something useful."

Chris frowned, directly interrupting Sawamura's tirade.

Who did Sawamura get this from? When he was asked seriously, he answered some clichés.

Suddenly being named by Chris, Sawamura was a little embarrassed. He subconsciously touched the back of his head and said.

"Although every batter at Inashiro Industrial is very strong, there are a few of them that stand out, such as the first, second, fourth, fifth, and sixth! Carlos the first batter, the second batter Shirakawa. One is fast, the other has batting skills, and an amazing will to fight.

The team-up of the first two is not a low threat at all. But if you want to deal with them, it is actually not a problem.

First and foremost, Carlos must not go to base. With the speed of the guy, once he steps on the base and cooperates with Shirakawa, they will form a terrifying scoring machine. Once Carlos is suppressed, Shirakawa will become an easy target, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Sawamura evaluated all the batters of Inashiro Industrial one by one.

To be honest, Inashiro was different from any opponent Seidou High School had encountered before. They are really strong, especially the current Inashiro. Under the leadership of Narumiya Mei, the current Inashiro can be called a gathering of heroes.

Each of the players is very strong and threatening.

When attacking, they also have their own individualities.

However, when Sawamura commented on them, his tone was very casual, he was talking about how to take down these batters without much effort.

While what Sawamura said sounds simple, the most important thing is the Players of Seidou High School believe that Sawamura can do it!

Sawamura can indeed suppress Inashiro's lineup.

This is definitely not bragging, but a real evaluation.

For this, Sawamura himself also made a conclusion.

"If it's just a one-on-one matchup, I'm not afraid of any batter in Inashiro. I'm confident that I'll get rid of all of them. Even if there are occasional fish that slip through the net, I won't let them hit consecutive hits!"

People make mistakes, and Sawamura can't guarantee that every Pitch he throws will not make any mistakes.

And once his pitching made a mistake, he may also be chased and bitten by Inashiro.

Sawamura expected all of this, and he believed he could solve it on the field.

This is the confidence of an Ace pitcher.

Sawamura has the experience of championship, and all this is precisely what Seidou High School lacks the most.

Experience is sometimes an invaluable asset.

Seidou High School does not lack strong players, nor does it lack the fighting spirit to win the championship.

Compared with Inashiro Industrial, if they are there is still any shortcoming that is probably the experience of higher stages!

"In last year's games, Inashiro needed to use bunt to walk the fourth batter only once," Miyuki added.

"Among all the teams I've ever seen, Inashiro Industrial is probably the most unbeatable team!"

Hearing Miyuki's words, Ochiai and Kataoka both looked at him.

Sawamura also shut up wisely.

He knew what Miyuki meant, and Miyuki was now showing his presence.

In this way, he was telling Coach Kataoka how much he knew about Inashiro.

The young man is very eager to fight Inashiro, or more like to fight with Narumiya Mei.

"If you encounter such a tactical attack, what are you going to do?"
