8. Rookie VS Three Armies
Half an hour passed quickly, and I saw that the seniors of the three armed forces reserve and the freshmen rookies in the first year had discussed the candidates for the appearance one by one, and they each walked to the field to prepare to start today's rookie against the three armed forces practice match. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Almost everyone in the stadium was very excited, looking forward to the next baseball game.
But there is only such a person, and the mood at this time is not as excited as others, and it seems very entangled.
He was the Kasuga cloud who was recommended to play by his new friends, and he was standing in the left field guard area of the stadium at this time, as if he hadn't yet realized how he got on the field.
I'm going to ~~ This is making a fuss! -- Kasugayun thought crankily in his heart.
However, time didn't wait for Kasugamo to react to what was going on, and a senior of the Second Army, who was the referee of today's practice game, put on his equipment and came to the back of home plate and raised his hand to signal that the game was about to start: "Yo Xi, today's game will be refereed by Miura Kaito, the catcher of our Second Army, everyone is ready, the game is about to start!" ”
"Department~~" all the three armies and first-year rookies on the court responded in unison.
"That's good! ~" After speaking, Miura Kaidou pulled down the hood protector on his head to block his face, and announced: "The game has officially begun, the first half of the first game is the first year rookie team, and the first batter of the attacking three armies please come forward and prepare~"
"Yo Xi ~ please advise! ~”
I saw that the first person to hit the three armies was a very strong guy, his name was Shuichi Minamino, and he was a third-year old student.
Because he has just joined the baseball club, and he has only been in contact with baseball for half a month, Kasugamo does not know how powerful this Minamino Shuichi is to strike.
But judging from the appearance of pitcher Hisachi Watanabe and catcher Kumata Tsuchihara, it is estimated that the blow of this senior Minamino is definitely not bad.
"Yo Xi, it's time to start! ~”
"Everyone, it's up to you to keep guard! ~Let's try to get off to a good start and win the first number of outs~~"
"Come on! ~~”
"Fight for one out~"
The first-year freshmen of the garrison shouted various slogans one by one before the start to raise their morale, but these had no effect on the old students of the strike line of the three armed forces, who were obviously superior in strength.
Soon, Kumata Tsuchihara, the catcher of the home plate, and Hisachi Watanabe had the code of the first pitch and were ready to start throwing the first pitch.
At this time, Kasuga, who was standing in the left field, began to be a little nervous about entering the game, while the other first-year freshmen were all bent over and squatting slightly, their eyes fixed on Shuichi Minamino in the strike zone, for fear that he would be blasted out of the first ball, and the people on his side would not be able to catch it.
"Yo Xi, come on!" When Watanabe received the pitching code, he stepped on the pitcher's board and threw the first ball with a vibrating arm pitch.
After half a month of popularizing baseball knowledge, baseball idiot Kasugamo finally learned a lot of baseball knowledge and baseball skills.
The boom-arm pitching method that Hisachi Watanabe is now adopting is a pitching method that Kasugamo learned as a pitcher at the beginning of the game, or when facing a situation where there is no hitter on the base.
Because it has the advantages of more preparation actions, long storage time, and throwing speed balls to hit the opponent's hitter, so that he is not prepared to swing the bat, so this kind of throwing is quite common.
It's just that Kasugamo today is the first time to see a baseball player throwing the ball with all his strength in an official game for the first time, and in his opinion, his classmate Watanabe Hisachi throws the ball with his arms raised, and he is really a little handsome!
Sure enough, the first ball was thrown by Hisachi Watanabe with an outside corner speedball.
After the baseball was thrown from the pitcher's mound, it flew in a single straight line towards home plate, and the sound of the ball breaking at high speed could be faintly heard even in the Kasuga clouds guarding the field.
"Whew~"
"Peng~"
After the baseball crashed into the catcher's glove, the senior of the second army, who was standing behind the catcher as the referee of the game, immediately shouted and announced: "Bad ball! ~”
The first batter of the first three armies, Hidekazu Minamino, saw at a glance that the ball thrown by Hisachi Watanabe was a bad ball in the outside corner, and the purpose of this was to induce him to hit the batter to cheat the number of balls, so he did not fall for the swing, but waited for the next inside corner kick he was about to throw, which was the goal of Shuichi Minamino.
For these, Kasuga, who was standing in the left field, didn't know the purpose of doing this, he just thought that Watanabe Kutomo, this guy was quite accurate when he practiced throwing and catching with him on weekdays, why did he throw a bad ball as soon as he came up to the game: "Huh!?" ~~ It turned out to be a bad ball!? What is Watanabe doing with this guy......"
At this time, the catcher Kumata Tsuchihara passed the ball back to Watanabe Hisatochi in praise loudly: "Good ball, good shot!" ~”
I'm going~~ It's good to shoot a bad shot! --Hearing this, the clouds of spring were dizzy.
No matter what Kasuga-yun baseball idiot thinks, Watanabe and the catcher on the pitcher's mound over there are ready to start throwing the second ball again after matching the code of the second ball.
Still throwing with a vibrating arm, I saw Watanabe Hisatochi first stand half a step back with his left foot and raise his hands above his head, his gloved left hand in front of him to block the right hand that grabbed the ball, and then raised the knee of his left foot to the same height as his waist and half-turned, and then strode out of the home plate with his left foot, and then stretched out his hands left and right.
At the same time that his left foot slammed on the ground, Watanabe Hisachi's upper body began to twist and rotate, but at this time, when his left hand began to retract into his arms with the last arm throwing action, his right hand was still behind him and did not turn, but his arm would have been shaken and made a reverse joint movement that made Kasugayun look a little frightened.
Finally, when Watanabe's right hand turned almost completely in the direction of home plate, it suddenly threw his arm out from behind him like a cowhide whip.
"Whew~"
It was another speedball, even as Kasuga, who was standing behind the pitcher, could see the way Watanabe Kutomo gripped the baseball with his right hand as he flung his arm.
This time, the direction of the baseball flight is still the outside corner, but the first ball is hit low in the outside corner, but this time the outside corner is high and hits the home plate about the same height as the batter's shoulder.
"Awesome~"
At this moment, Shuichi Minamino, who was standing in the strike zone, actually chose to play the stick.
The crisp and loud blow instantly attracted the attention of all the first-year freshmen on the field, and they all shouted: "Hit, in the direction of the right field!" ”
"Right fielder!! ~”
"Beware the ball is coming~~"
As soon as the first-year students saw the baseball being hit, they all screamed in a ghostly manner and shouted for the right fielder to get ready to catch the ball.
On the other side, all the people of the three armies sighed with pity after seeing the ball played by Shuichi Minamino: "Stain~~ The rookies are really lucky, Nanye-kun actually flew away." ”
That's right, even Shuichi Minamino, who is a beater, finished the blow at this time, and he already knew the final result of the ball and began to complain about himself: "Damn, I can't resist the temptation to hit the bat!" ”
A high-flying ball, although it was hit by the three armies of the Minamino Shuichi for a long distance, but because of some hesitation when the baton was released, the position of the hit ball was not good, resulting in the baseball only flying high after going out, but it only flew over the base area to the outfield and fell from the air, and was steadily received by the first-year right fielder Hasegawa Eisuke, and announced that the blow of the first batter of the three armies Nanno Shuichi was received and killed.
"Whew~~" Until Eisuke Hasegawa caught the ball and signaled, all the first-year freshmen in the audience, whether on the field or watching the game in the rest area, all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well received! ~”
"Nice catch, Hasegawa, one out!"
"Haha...... One out, one out! ~”
"Well guarded Hasegawa-kun~~"
Even Kasuga, who was still a little confused until this time, happily shouted at Eisuke Hasegawa in the right field: "Good ball, nice catch!" ~”
"Stain~~ It's just out, look at these rookies...... Hey, it's time for you to play, and give our three armies a good blow. ”
"It's just ~~ The rookies are too scared, we as seniors should teach them, seniors should be respected."
"Please, Miyazaki-kun! ~”
"Woo Xi~~" I saw a beater called Satohiko Miyazaki by the people on the line of the three armies, and then pulled out a wooden bat from the rack and waved it twice, then walked out of the rest area and walked towards the court with a serious face.
Rookies, don't get too complacent, the game has just begun......
