Chapter 39: Strong Team 1 (Three Watches)
"The cooperation is too tacit, worthy of the baseball team of Fuqiu Middle School. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Of course, they have half a national team!"
"In the end, it was Fuqiu Middle School that won, and the overall strength is much worse."
……
Yota Kurosaki returned to the cowshed of the Akagi Middle School baseball team with a lonely face, Yang Ping was about to step forward and wait for the blow, seeing his appearance, he smiled and patted Yota Kurosaki on the shoulder: "Don't mind, you've done a good job." ”
"If you're downcast, what are we going to do with all of us?" Ryuichi Onizuka comforted Kurosaki in a faint voice. Although he said it open-mindedly, his fists were clenched tightly. Yaota Kurosaki felt unwilling, how could Ryuichi Onizuka, who had ten times stronger self-esteem, be willing?
"Third baseman, third baseman, Flower Shadow."
The tall Flower Shadow stands on the strike zone, and the sense of oppression brought by it is very strong! In addition, his striking prowess itself is also good, so he has often hit important hits in previous games. But after the national competition, Hanakage's performance was very average. On the one hand, catchers and pitchers in national competitions are all well-informed, and hitters of all sizes have long been commonplace, and they don't feel extra pressure. (At least that's the case with the two teams that played against Akagi Middle School.) )
In addition, there is another reason that because Hanakage is the center hitter, the opponent is much more wary of Hanakage.
Of course, the proud flower shadow in her heart will not use these excuses to prevaricate herself. No performance is no performance, and on the stage of the national competition, he is undoubtedly unqualified as the third baseman of the Akagi Junior High School baseball team. But even if they are unqualified, their friends still trust themselves. So as the central hitter, how can I live up to their expectations?
Seeing that the third batter of the Chicheng Middle School baseball team also played a short bat, Yui Xun's face began to become solemn.
He was originally extremely confident in Hashimoto's pitching, and except for Yang Ping and Sawamura, the rest of the Akagi Middle School baseball team should not be able to play Hashimoto's ball, even if they used short bats.
But Yota Kurosaki broke his cognition, and the short stick just now was very good! If it weren't for the higher garrison ability of Fuqiu Middle School, it would have been almost certain to go to base just now.
Now in the face of the third bat, who also put on a short stance, Yui Xun has to be cautious with the ball. If there is a hitter on base before Yang Ping's turn, then the situation and pressure that he and Senior Hashimoto will face will be a hundred times more severe.
This ball is very carefully matched by Jing Fumi, judging by the size of Hanaying, he should be the most difficult to hit the low ball in the inside corner. This kind of ball is not enough to reach the ball with a short stick at his height. Even if it is a cheating hit, this kind of ball that clings to the edge of the inside corner is not very good at dealing with Huaying's height.
It's not inconsiderate by Jing Xun, it's just that he is studying Flower Shadow, and Flower Shadow is also studying him.
Yang Ping had told him before the game that there would be no easy way to play. Then the ball thrown must be in the corners, making it difficult for the hitter to shoot. He put on a short fight again, and with the opponent's ability to control the ball, he will definitely not throw high balls, so that he can touch the ball comfortably.
Since you can't throw a high ball, then the ball will inevitably be on the bottom road. Is it an inside or an outer angle?
If you were a catcher, what kind of ball would you match?
Inside corner low ball, of course! Because of his size, it is the most strenuous to hit the inside corner low ball. With the skill of the catcher at Fuqiu Middle School, he should have easily noticed this.
Thinking of this, Flower Shadow did not hesitate to withdraw the bat and shoot at the first ball that flew in!
"Ping~"
Sure enough, it's a low ball in the inside corner! Flower Shadow guessed correctly, but it didn't play well. The baseball flew diagonally in the direction of third base and was picked up by the third baseman at Fuqiu Middle School.
"Out!"
The referee's shouts were accompanied by Yui's sneer. Hanakage guessed the ball correctly, and Yui Xun was even more skilled, he let Hashimoto's ball move a ball away from the sideline of the good ball area.
Two outs, no one on base.
"Fourth stick, number two, catcher, Yang Ping!"
Yang Ping, who was standing in the strike zone, listened to the cheering sound of the surrounding mountains and tsunamis, and his mood was surging.
He hit a home run in his last goal, and this one, he still has the confidence to hit a home run.
In baseball, there is also a restraint relationship between the pitcher and the batter. Yuyan Hashimoto may be strong for others! But for Yang Ping, he is the pitcher who is most easily restrained by him.
Come on!
Although he didn't speak, and didn't make superfluous movements, Yang Ping just stood there, giving Hashimoto this feeling.
Known as the No. 1 pitcher among his peers, Hashimoto never considered himself the best among his peers. From the time he first started playing baseball, Hashimoto has seen a variety of geniuses. Born with fast balls, born with variable balls, and born with better ball control than others......
Compared to them, Hashimoto is almost useless. The ball speed can only be regarded as the upper middle among his peers, and he has no talent for quirk ball changes, and his ball control is not naturally excellent, but he has been trained a little hard.
But even so, Hashimoto Yuyan still defeated those talents who were better than him, and has always occupied the throne of the ace pitcher of the national team.
Hashimoto is more pragmatic than those geniuses and knows better what is most important to the team.
"Bad ball!"
"Bad ball!"
……
When Yuyan Hashimoto threw four bad shots in a row, not to mention that the audience even Yang Ping himself found it unbelievable.
Yuhiko Hashimoto is the ace pitcher of the national team, and has the title of No. 1 in the country among students in his class.
It is difficult for Yang Ping to understand that such a pitcher would choose to escort the hitter, regardless of whether the person being escorted is himself or not. How can a young man abandon such things as fame and fortune?
You must know that even if Yang Ping hits three home runs, it can be said that the pitcher is not in good shape. Without detrimental to his position as the No. 1 pitcher in the country among his peers. But once Yang Ping is escorted, you can't say that it's because you're not in good shape, you can only admit that your strength is not good.
In this case, it is almost impossible to keep the No. 1 pitcher in the country and his name.
For the victory of a national competition, I gave up the results of my previous ten years of hard work. Even if such a choice is placed in front of Yang Ping, it is difficult for Yang Ping to make a decisive choice.
Yang Ping can't do it, and the vast majority of people in this world can't do it. And Hashimoto Yuyan, a boy who is only fourteen years old, did it, and he did it very decisively.
Even the perfect guard of Fuqiu Middle School before didn't make Yang Ping feel anything, but now, Yang Ping is deeply aware.
Fuqiu Middle School is really strong!
