356. It's not a man's spring cloud to get up casually
"Come on, come on~~"
"Look at your performance, Watanabe-kun, let those guys from the First Army take a good look at the strength of our Alliance Army! ~”
"Hey, hela, by the way, this guy Watanabe seems to be from the first army, right? ~Is that okay!? ”
"No problem, no problem, right now he is from our side of the Alliance Army, if you should help, you should shout like this!"
"It's also ~~"
"Come on, come on, Watanabe-kun! ~”
Not long after the training game started, in the rest area on the side of the third base, the members of the rookie alliance army were all like chickens and blood, and they were full of enthusiasm into the game. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In contrast, in the temporary first army, in addition to the few players who were transferred from the second and third armies to serve as the main force, the main forces such as Akai, Kasuga, Kobayashi, etc., who already have rich experience in the competition, looked completely calm and treated the game calmly.
At this time, the first half of the first game of the game had just been played.
Tsuchihara, the 3-batter of the Provisional First Army, was finally defeated by his friend Watanabe, but at least he let Watanabe spend 21 shots in the first game to end the fight, achieving the first stage of exhausting Watanabe's physical fitness.
"Yo Xi, it's our turn! ~”
As soon as Kasugayun saw that the first half of the game was over, he immediately grabbed the ball equipment next to him and beckoned to the surrounding teammates to go to the court.
"Oh!! ~~”
Akai took the lead directly in front, swaggering at the newcomers in the 3rd base rest area: "Yo Xi~~ Are the rookies ready, senior, I'm full of fighting spirit now, let's be conscious of eating eggs!" ”
"Pedal Pedal ~~"
Although Akai and Kasugayun and others just walked on the field to prepare for it as usual, under the influence of that calm pace, the newcomers in the rest area on the side of the 3rd base all felt the sense of danger brought by the momentum emanating from the seniors.
"Shhh ~~”
"It's so powerful, is this the momentum of the national championship team in our baseball club!?"
The man who said this was Masaharu Ono, a backup pitcher on the league team, who had always dreamed of becoming a great pitcher, so his eyes would be more focused on Kasuga, who had just come on the court and walked towards the pitcher Zuna.
"It's not even close! ~" As soon as Watanabe got off the field, he heard Ono's eyes widen and look at Kasugayun and the others who had just replaced them on the field, so he reminded him in a loud voice: "With such a momentum, not to mention Kasuga-kun and them, even I can do it!" …… Boy, if you want to force them out of their true strength, you have to work harder! ”
"Real strength!?" Ono asked Watanabe in surprise: "Senior Watanabe, do you mean that the current Kasuga seniors are not in the most powerful state!?" ”
Watanabe rolled his eyes: "That's for sure, who will show all their strength to the opponent as soon as they come up!" ~ Even against strong opponents, we don't do this, not to mention that we are not a strong opponent for Kasuga-kun! Look, boy, if you want to be a good pitcher, you have to learn more! ”
Soon, the game started on the pitch again.
In the second half of the first inning, it was the turn of a group of newcomers from the Alliance Army to start attacking. First up was their 1 batter, June Nishijima, a 1st base defender.
He was originally a pure hitter in the second army, but because of the needs of the team's development, after being reminded by coach Kawano, Nishijima developed the ability to defend on the basis of the original pure hitter.
Especially in the blocking and garrisoning of the first base, Nishijima quickly learned a good blocking and garrisoning technique from the former commander of the first army, Aihara, so that he could stand on the main position of the second army faster and more steadily.
"Yo Si! ~Come on~~"
Unlike the others, Nishijima is a left-hander, so he chose to attack on the left side, which he is good at, as soon as he came up.
But this did not pose any threat to the pitcher's mound, after all, he had played against the beaters from the famous baseball high schools from all over the country at the recently concluded Haga tournament, and finally won them all until he won the championship banner!
I saw this spring cloud standing quietly on the highest top of the field, looking at the home plate area.
But it was such a one-stop action, and Nishijima, who was waiting to be played in the strike zone, had already clearly and truly felt the majesty of Kasugamo as the team's core ace pitcher!
Cowardice before you fight!
Although this situation is very embarrassing for Nishijima, when facing such an absolute ace pitcher in the team as Kasuga, Nishijima, who has not seriously competed with the main lineup of the first army, will naturally have a trace of timidity towards the momentum of Kasugayun at the moment, which is a very normal situation!
In fact, not to mention Nishijima, or even in the 3rd base rest area, except for Watanabe and a few players, it is very rare to have a chance to really see Kasugamo pitching at full strength on weekdays.
If the people in the baseball club are like this, the people from the outside world don't have to say anything!
Going back to the game on the court, this will be the official start of the second half of the first inning.
Facing the challenge of the first hitter of the rookie league team, Kasugamo behaved calmly, and with a somewhat breezy look, he directly used 3 speedballs with a wide range of transfers, and successfully solved the attack of Nishijima, the first hitter of the rookie league team.
Then, the 2-stick guerrilla garrison Ninomiya appeared to challenge.
As soon as he came up, Ninomiya's position in the strike zone was obviously at the forefront, and at the same time, the bat he held in both hands was also shortened by him, in order to attack faster!
But, no matter how you look at it, it feels a bit like he's watching out for Kasuga Cloud throwing his famous stunt ball - the appearance of a thousand fantasy balls!
And in fact, that's exactly what Ninomiya is doing now!
He has to beware of the Thousand Illusion Ball of Kasuga, 100%, absolutely on guard...... Even in the next few shots, Kasuga may not necessarily use his tricks so quickly!
Well, the word "plan ahead" Ninomiya did it, and said it well!
However, his precautions could not wait for the result he wanted, and Kasugamo continued to be 3 fast balls that combined fast and slow, and successfully swept Ninomiya out of the game.
At this moment, the rookie league team didn't take long to lose 2 outs in succession in their offensive half of the game.
Next, the hopes of all the members of the rookie league team fell on their three-player batter, Kawaguchi.
Watanabe: They are very much looking forward to Kawaguchi getting some benefits from Kasuga-kumo, and the best thing is to hit the base with one hit!
The reason why Kawaguchi has such high expectations is because Kawaguchi is one of the few members of the rookie league team who has seen and experienced the power of Kasuga's full arm pitching.
And because Kawaguchi had to train the guerrilla garrison for some time before, he had the training experience of being in the strike training for several days in a row, and Kasugamo personally fed him the ball.
Therefore, Kawaguchi also knows a lot about Kasuga's pitching style and his various tricks.
The game officially began in the throwing duel between two teammates who are more familiar with each other.
On the first ball, Kasuga immediately unceremoniously soared the ball speed to the highest value since the opening!
Initial pitching speed, 146.35 km/h!
At such a speed, even if Kawaguchi was prepared to face the incoming ball, he realized that he still underestimated the power of the ball.
"Great! ~”
"Whoop! ~”
With a stick, Kawaguchi immediately couldn't help but curse.
The ball was hit by him into a flying ball, so Kawaguchi did not run to the first base bag after the ball flew out, but stayed where he was and waited for the final landing of the baseball in mid-air.
Fortunately, the baseball finally flew out of bounds, so that Kobayashi, the third baseman of the temporary first army, could only watch the baseball fall out of bounds, and could not put it in the air in the glove to block Kawaguchi's attack.
"Oh, hehe~~ There are two hits! ~~ So, Tsuchihara-kun, I'm serious! When pitcher Kasugamo Tsukami saw that Kawaguchi was able to hit such an effect with a single stroke, he immediately made up his mind to change his pitching strategy and launch a sharper pitching attack.
Kasugayun thought perfectly, but Tsuchihara, who was his partner catcher, didn't think so.
I saw that he waved his hand again and again: "Hey, hey~~ Kasuga-kun, don't mess around!" ~”
"Hehe~~ Don't worry, Tsuchihara-kun, I'm not a mess! ~”
After listening, Tsuchihara's mood calmed down a little.
But he didn't hear what Kasuga Cloud said later, otherwise...... Hey~~
After Kasugamo set up his position on the pitcher's mound, he made a pitching motion while preparing to pitch the ball, and thought to himself: It's true that I'm not a casual person, but ...... I'm not a human when I get up casually! ~~Muwahaha...... Tsuchihara-kun, let's watch the ball~ a thousand illusions!! ~
