13. The strength of the garrison of the three armies

"Smack! ~”

"Three good shots! ~"After the referee standing behind the catcher judged another pitch, he raised his hand and shouted: "The hitter is out, the offense and defense are exchanged!"

With the referee's order, all the members of the first-year rookie team on the field walked back to the rest area as if they had just finished a battle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

However, although the game was just half a game at the beginning, compared to the seniors of the three armies who had just warmed up, almost all of the 9 people on the first-year rookie team ran back to the rest area sweating profusely.

"Gollum~~Gollum~~"

There was a sound of cattle drinking, and suddenly there was a flurry in the rest area of the first-year rookie team.

It took a while for someone to sigh.

It was Qi Ping Takuya, who was in charge of guarding the first base, who spoke: "Aha~~ I'm finally comfortable, bastard~~ The seniors of the three armies are really super difficult to deal with, this is just the first game!" ”

Ryuichi Horibe, the third-base guard who had just completed a near-perfect one and almost double-killed the opponent, interjected: "There is no way, the seniors are indeed more experienced than us, and they have a much better grasp of the ball than us!" ”

Hearing this, almost everyone in the rest area understood that Ryuichi Horibe at this time had not yet recovered from the guard that almost had a double kill just now.

Of course, except for the layman, Kasugayun will still sit on the bench a little dazedly, not knowing what he is thinking.

At this time, the pitcher Watanabe Hisachi, who was resting beside Kasuga, saw that Kasugamo was a little dazed, and knew that this friend he had just met was not used to the atmosphere of playing baseball, so he said to Kasuga-yun: "What's the matter, Kasuga-kun, it feels okay!?" The game has just begun, we still have to play in the future, and the right field guard will be handed over to you! ”

"Oh~~" Kasugamo subconsciously nodded when he listened, and then came back to his senses and looked at his friend Watanabe Hisachi next to him, and saw that he had not yet adapted to the atmosphere of the baseball game and spoke out for himself, so Kasugamo gratefully responded to Watanabe Hisachi: "Oh! ~No problem, I don't dare to say if it is wrapped around me, but if the ball does fly over, I will definitely try my best to catch it. ”

Watanabe Hisatochi smiled, clenched his left fist and lightly hammered Kasuga's arm before saying, "Although the baseball game may be a very dull sport in the eyes of you laymen!" …… Don't be in a hurry to deny it, if you didn't think like this, you wouldn't be in a daze just now! “

A sentence made Chun Riyun blush, and indeed his thoughts were guessed by his friends at this time, which made him a little embarrassed.

In the end, Kasugayun had to confess with a smile: "No way, it's too boring to guard the right field, and the ball basically can't come to my side." “

"Haha......" Hearing this, Watanabe Hisatochi suddenly laughed, and kept nodding arrogantly: "En'en~~ That's right, we didn't plan to expect much from you when we first let you play, we just wanted you to feel the atmosphere of the official game!" …… As for saying that the ball can't hit your side, do you think it really can't hit it!? Just kidding, I deliberately controlled the direction of the ball when I pitched, so that the seniors of the three armies couldn't hit the ball so easily, so most of the shots that were knocked out were some infield rolling balls, or high flying balls in the left field, middle field, and midfield. “

"What!? Is it possible to control the direction of the ball that is being knocked out!? Kasugamo was surprised to hear this, thinking that his friend Hisatochi Watanabe could control the ball he threw to be hit by the beater where he wanted to go.

Watanabe Hisachi saw that his words obviously attracted the distracted attention of Kasugamo just now, so he went on to explain: "Oh~~ Of course it's okay to do this! This is a basic goalkeeping skill that every pitcher needs to master......"

"Awesome......" Kasugayun didn't know how such a thing was done, so he felt that Watanabe Hisachi's figure at this time was very tall and exclaimed: "Watanabe-kun, you are really amazing!" ~“

"Ahaha...... It's so-so! ~"Someone got up.

At this time, Kasugamo asked again, "How did you do it!?" “

It's just that a guy who has to get up will still be immersed in YY and can't extricate himself, waving his hand and answering vaguely: "Ah Lala, it's not a big deal, it's nothing more than the result of the speedball plus the slider plus the speed ball and the finger fork ball, the four balls cooperate with each other!" “

"It's that simple!? ~~" Kasugayun was even more puzzled after listening to it.

Of course, things won't be that simple, but it's useless for these Watanabe Hisachi to continue, after all, for the layman, what kind of coordination method is used by pitchers against hitters, what kind of defense purpose needs to be achieved, and if you really want to talk about it, it will be impossible to talk about it for a few days and nights in a row.

…………

Just when Kasugamo was refocused on his distracted attention by his friend Watanabe Hisachi, the attack time of the first-year rookie team in the second half of the first inning on the court came quietly.

The first batter was Ryuichi Horibe, the third baseman, and the two and third year partners were in charge of the three armies, with Junichiro Akagi from the second grade class B and Kazuo Takei from the third grade class B in charge of the catch.

I saw that after the referee gave an order to the referee, Junichiro Akagi, a pitcher from the three armies, immediately stepped on the pedal and began to throw the ball.

"Hey, Kasuga-kun, Senior Akagi of the three armies is going to start pitching, you can take a closer look to see what is the difference between the ball that Senior Akagi uses to face our line and mine!"

At this time, Watanabe Hisachi's words gave his originally distracted attention to Kasuga, who returned to the court, and under the reminder of his friend Watanabe Hisachi, he began to carefully observe the various balls used by Junichiro Akagi to snipe at his own side.

On the first ball, Junichiro Akagi's pitch surprised Kasugamo greatly.

I saw that Junichiro Akagi also used the throwing method used by Hisachi Watanabe to shoot his first ball on the board at the beginning.

However, after Junichiro Akagi began to step out, Kasugamo immediately shouted in surprise: "Watanabe-kun, look, how did Senior Akagi throw the ball out of the side of his body so strangely!?" Is that okay!? ……”

Before Kasugamo could finish speaking, the ball thrown by Junichiro Akagi was already flying straight from the pitcher's mound into the catcher's glove behind home plate.

And not only is it super fast, Kasugamo can also hear the sound of the baseball breaking through the air on the side, which is louder than the ball thrown by his friend Hisachi Watanabe.

That means that the power of the ball thrown by Junichiro Akagi is more powerful than that of Hisachi Watanabe.

Sure enough, after this ball, a solemn look immediately appeared on Watanabe Hisachi's face: "What a strong ball power, is this the ball power of the three armies who are selecting pitchers!?" “

At this time, Kasugayun asked Watanabe Hisachi strangely: "Watanabe-kun, have you seen it, Senior Akagi's pitching posture is so strange!" Throwing so accurately and so quickly with your body sideways, is this the special feature of this fancy pitching method!? “

Watanabe Hisaji's face was still a little dignified, and he hadn't recovered from the ball that Junichiro Akagi threw just now, but at least at this time, he still didn't forget to explain to his friend Kasuga Yun in popular science: "That's a side throw, it's not a fancy pitch, and the side shot is also a common pitching action used by pitchers!" Compared to the traditional right-hand pitching action like me, the side ball has a weird angle and is a favorite pitching method for pitchers who are good at throwing cart balls. Because the point of the side shot is lower than the traditional pitching method, coupled with the change of the ball path, it is definitely a nightmare for the hitter! “

"Oh, I see!? Then why don't you learn from Akagi-senpai to use side throwing!? “

Watanabe Hisatochi shook an idiot's eyes at Kasuga, and then replied: "Although the side throw is good, it actually has its shortcomings, as for the details, I'll explain it to you slowly after the game is over!" ~ It's better to care about the game now.,Look,A stick of Horibe-kun doesn't seem to work! ”

The camera shifts to the court, and at this time, Ryuichi Horibe, who is standing on the strike zone, is not only in a bad mood, it is simply desperate!

"Whew~"

"Smack! ~”

"Good shot, strikeout!"

Another tricky angle of the inside corner speedball, the last bit of thought that Ryuichi Horibe originally wanted to try his luck and hit the baton was directly crushed.

"Damn bastard......" After the unwilling Ryuichi Horibe was knocked out of the game, he rubbed shoulders with the second batter with an unwilling face, and solemnly reminded his companion: "Be careful, Senior Akagi's ball is very powerful, and there will be a significant acceleration in the second half of the speedball, so you can't hesitate to play the bat!" ”

"Yo Si! ~" Inuichiro Akai, who was about to hit the second bat, listened to Ryuichi Horibe's suggestion, nodded slightly in salute and walked into the strike zone.

It's just that although Akai Inuichiro had the previous reminder from the Horibe, it was really so hard that after facing the strong pitching of the three army pitchers, he still couldn't effectively hit the ball that flew over, and he also dedicated the three army pitcher Junichiro Akagi to another strike out of the opponent's report card.

Not only the second Akai Inuichiro, but even the next year on the court The rookie team beat Ida Chenhachi with three sticks, and he also failed to escape the fate of being knocked out by strikeouts.

In this way, the first-year rookie team finally defended the strong onslaught of the three armies' line, and the attacking opportunities that were exchanged were easily solved by the three armies' regular selection pitcher, Junichiro Akagi from the second-grade class B.

"Huh!? It's over so quickly......"

"Oh my God, how could this be! ~It's too fast! ~”

"I haven't rested enough! ~I really don't want to play......"

"My heart is ...... when I cry"

"Seniors are really bt......"

The rookies who were still thinking that their side could entangle the seniors of the three armed forces on the garrison line for a while, but before they had time to take a few more breaths, the attack time that belonged to them in the first game had already run out, which made many first-year rookies angry, of course, there were also a lot of helplessness and unwillingness, and they vomited bitterness in the rest area one by one.

On the other side, the game on the field ended here, and the first game of the baseball game between the first-year rookie team and the three army reserves officially ended, and the score on the field was 0:2 for the time being, and the first-year rookie team was behind.

Judging from the offensive and defensive confrontation between the two sides in the first game, it is obvious that the three armies are much higher than the first-year rookies in terms of the strength of the pitchers when they are on the defensive or the strong threat of hitting the line when they attack.

And this situation was vividly reflected in the next few games.

Although the first-year rookies did their best to defend the game, their pitcher Hisachi Watanabe was still defending in the fifth inning of the middle of the game when he was hit by the fourth batter of the center line of the three armies and hit a Yangchun home run under the pressure of no base bag when there was no one on the base.

On the offensive end, the first-year rookies were directly blocked by Junichiro Akagi, the pitcher of the three armies, and each game was either successfully guided by the hitter to play a good catch, and then was killed out, or directly struck out by Junichiro Akagi's violent three-ball.

For a while, whether it was offense or defense, the first-year rookies were in an extremely bad situation.
