Chapter 29: Hard Work

The game continues.

After Furuya came on the field, he cleanly struck Out the batters of Yoshiyama High School.

They, who had already lost their fighting spirit, were about to collapse. Having to fight this Monster-kun Furuya right now directly destroyed the last bit of the fighting spirit of Yoshiyama High School.

In fact, there are still many problems with pitching Furuya, and three of the nine balls he threw are Balls.

If the batter can be carefully selected and entangled with him. It should be able to have a lot of impact on Furuya!

But it's a pity that Yoshiyama High School, which has been bombarded by Seidou High School, has lost that calmness.

Therefore, they all got strikeouts pretty quickly.

In this way, Furuya's pitching on Koshien looked amazing.

Just played two games, and the number of innings did not exceed five, and Furuya has already scored a full double-digit strikeout.

In the second half of the sixth inning, Seidou High School attacked.

This time, Shiratsu, Furuya, and Kuramochi were also quickly resolved.

On the pitcher's mound, the pitcher looked like the pitcher of a primary school student.

At this moment, it seems unfathomable!

In the rest area of ​​Seidou High School.

Sawamura frowned, looking at the pitcher on the mound.

"Shisho, when you were at bat before, you should have noticed something strange, right?"

Hearing Sawamura's question, Chris nodded.

"If my guess is correct, the opponent should be using the same Moving ball as you!"

'What?'

When Chris made his guess, not only Sawamura but also in the rest area of ​​Seidou High School, many people looked at Chris in disbelief.

Ochiai was the first to come back to his senses.

After all, he has many years of experience, and his knowledge is still very broad. He has seen some things that other people don't.

'In middle school, among players who have not been professionally trained, sometimes there will be some pitchers with special talents!'

There's a Moving ball pitcher among them!

People who consciously use the Moving ball to pitch, if they can persevere, occasionally a very powerful pitcher will be born.

"The reason why Sawamura can Pitch the Moving ball is because he has naturally soft joints and wrists, it's impossible…"

Miyuki glanced strangely at the small pitcher in the rest area opposite.

His words were not finished. But the basic meaning is clearly expressed.

Sawamura can use the Moving ball because he has naturally soft joints. It's impossible for this kind of talent to be buried, isn't it?

"Sometimes, talented people can't go any further," Chris said.

"What's the meaning?"

Isashiki didn't like this cloudy conversation so he asked directly.

Sawamura and Miyuki looked at each other and lowered their heads.

There was a bit of embarrassment on Sawamura's face.

Miyuki had a thoughtful expression on his face.

After a while, he glanced at Chris in shock.

'Very scary!'

'He only stood once in the strike zone, and then observed a few balls, but he has figured out the strength of the opponent's pitcher?'

'As expected of Chris-senpai!'

On the talent of being a catcher, Miyuki definitely doesn't think he is worse than Chris, but when it comes to insight, he may not really be on Chris's level.

So awesome!

Miyuki was also dazed. Originally, the goal that was already extremely close suddenly jumped forward again.

Sawamura Eijun, who looked embarrassed next to him, was very emotional.

'Chris-shisho's talent as a player is scary enough, but his talent as a Coach maybe even more scary.'

Not everyone who changes careers to a coach after the player's path fails has good results.

But Chris did it!

After he switched careers as to a coach, he was even more brilliant than when he was a player.

"Sawamura's Moving ball is just a grip, and he has not studied and explored it in depth. His main energy is on the other breaking balls, Straight ball, and Straight Fastball…"

"Having all of those courses that could be used to disrupt his opponents, Sawamura didn't expect much from the Moving ball, So Sawamura was just using his talent to throw it. But the substitute pitcher of Yoshiyama regards the Moving ball as his lifeline so he honed it to even break like the Moving-up…" Chris said very emotionally.

People are so complicated, that you can never use the perspective of the past to measure the current strength of the players.

When they joined Seidou High School this year, it was a famous year of poor harvest. Especially the current captain Yuuki, his performance in various positions was rubbish.

If at that time, someone told Chris and the seniors before Seidou High School that the future Yuuki Tetsuya would be a blockbuster and become a nationally famous strong batter.

Then they will probably hold their stomachs from laughter, right?

Who would have thought that this really happened!

Yuuki also became one of the top Batters in the country.

Only one round of Koshien for the star players to shine.

The most interesting was of course the legendary fourth and fifth batters!

The Maou Sawamura Eijun!

The Captain of Steel, Yuuki Tetsuya!

After Seidou entered Koshien, whether it was Sawamura or Yuuki, the worth of the two of them had risen considerably.

Even before entering Koshien, he was already a top Batter in the country on the list made by professional baseball scouts!

Before Seidou High School entered Koshien, there were already three professional baseball teams, and they extended an invitation to Tetsu who had not graduated yet.

That is to say, even if this grade of Seidou High School did not make it to Koshien, Yuuki would still be able to directly participate in the draft just like his predecessor, Azuma Kiyokuni.

Not to mention, Seidou High School has now entered Koshien. Yuuki in this season of Koshien, still had a very good performance.

Now his worth is rising with the tide.

It is conceivable that after this Tournament of Koshien is over. the professional baseball scouts will definitely step through the school gate of Seidou.

Of course, this backup pitcher from Yoshiyama High School can't compare with the current Yuuki in terms of strength. Of course, a pitcher and a Batter cannot be compared with the same criteria.

Although the pitcher looks weak, lacking the sense of threat.

The Players of Seidou High School did not dare to underestimate him after listening to Chris's analysis.

"So now, what are the countermeasures?"

Isashiki Jun muttered in dissatisfaction.

"The opponent does have good talent. But for now, he is not an opponent we can't deal with."

After carefully analyzing the opponent's pitching, Chris gave his own advice.

"Overall, the opponent's pitch is a Moving ball with a little float. So when we hit it, it was easy to hit the ball into a fly high. If you want to deal with this pitcher, you need to Swing the bat up by half a ball, and then swing the bat firmly. As long as we follow this set of tactics, I believe that we will soon be able to defeat the opponent!"

The Players of Seidou High School accepted Chris's suggestion.

Not only them, but even the Coach of Seidou High School, Kataoka, accepted it too.

"Just do as Chris says!"

"Yes!"

All the batters who were about to play at Seidou High School answered with great vigor.

In the second half of the seventh inning, Seidou High School attacked.

This time Seidou's starter was the second baseman, Kominato Ryosuke.

Kominato Ryosuke is nicknamed the Devil Brother.

"Aim for the half ball above the Straight ball, and swing the bat cleanly!"
