333. Major Mistakes
"Whew! ~”
"Pong! ~”
"3 good balls, batsman out! ~”
“~~~”
After a while, Kasugayun walked off the court with a helpless face. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At the entrance of the rest area, four people, Watanabe, Tsuchihara, Hayakawa and Anno, were waiting for him.
Watanabe smiled and asked Kasuga, who had just returned, "What's the matter, did you hit that ball very hard just now!?" ”
Kasugayun nodded and replied, "It's quite uncomfortable, what the hell is that!?" ”
Although Kasugamo has grown into the core of the team and the existence of an ace pitcher, the amount of knowledge as the core is far from enough.
In fact, not to mention the amount of core knowledge, even if he is compared with the main force in any position in the team, he is still in a state of half-understanding of many tactics and ball paths in the sport of baseball!
Naturally, for the screwball, which is an unconventional weapon in the pitcher's arsenal, Kasugamo is so unfamiliar that he only has an impression of the name!
At this time, Hayakawa on the side explained to Kasuga: "Of course it's hard to play, it's the spiral ball that can be ranked in the top 5 of the 10 most difficult balls in the world today!" ”
"Screwball!? Or is it one of the top 10 hardest balls to play in baseball today!? ~~ I'm exaggerating! Kasugayun put the bat back on the rack in his hand and sat back on the bench to rest as he looked at a few friends next to him with some surprise.
"Not an exaggeration at all, Kasuga-kun." Hayakawa then explained to Kasuga, "Let me explain to you, the spiral ball path is similar to the curveball, but its depraved trajectory after entering the base is the opposite of the curveball!"
Generally speaking, from the point of view of the right pitcher and the right hitter, most changing balls are deflected towards the outside corner of the hitter.
Especially for variation balls such as curveballs and sliders, when the player expects the ball to be similar to the one just mentioned, they usually subjectively assume that the ball will move to the outside corner.
However, the biggest obstacle for the hitter is that it will continue to drift to the inner corner of the hitter in the process of falling, so that the hitter will make an error in judgment, so that the wrong hit point will miss the swing and form a blow failure.
The same goes for left pitchers and left-hitters vice versa!
In addition, the way the screw ball is played is that the pitcher rotates inward backward at the same time from the shoulder, elbow, arm, wrist and palm holding the ball to exert force, resulting in a way that throws the baseball out of the reverse rotation like twisting the towel inward with the arm to the inside!
This kind of pitching action does not conform to the principle of human mechanics for the swing of the pitcher's arm when he needs to swing the ball, so often throwing this kind of ball will cause the pitcher's arm to be easily damaged, so this kind of ball is also called self-harming ball road!
But in any case, as the new academy relays such a change-ball pitcher on the court, even if he is not a talented player, it is difficult for us to have much impact on that kid's pitching! ”
At this time, the captain Yasuno came over and said: "Hayakawa's words are not wrong at all, this relay pitcher named Irie Daigo of the new academy is not a talented player, but it is good that he only relies on ordinary curveballs and sliders, plus fast balls and slow balls with rapid changes in spiral balls, although there is still a certain threat, but at least compared to the talented ball path like Kurotani in the Zhigakukan, the ordinary ball path is still easier to deal with!" I'm afraid ......"
"I'm afraid that the other party is still hiding the big move, so it will be difficult to run the next 3 games" Hayakawa said worriedly although he was off the court, he was still worried about the situation on the court.
Anye nodded and agreed: "There is indeed such a possibility, so in our garrison bureau next, we all have to cheer up and defend to the death, only in this way can we have the possibility of winning, have you heard?!" ”
"Oh! ~~”
"Yo Xi, let's go! ~”
"Oh roar roar~~"
………………………………
In the second half of the 6th inning, Aoba Dodai High School guarded half a inning.
Before it even started, the weather suddenly and quickly darkened.
It used to be the kind of sunny day in the 4th or 5th innings, and the scorching heat of the stones, but it has become a cool and gloomy cloudy day.
A fresh breeze with moisture swept across the field, making the spring clouds standing on the pitcher's mound feel like rain was about to fall.
"Is it raining!?"
Kasugayun looked up at a huge and heavy cloud that had been slowly floating overhead, accompanied by bursts of thunder, and suddenly a feeling of joy and excitement appeared in his heart.
"What a nice day! ~”
I don't know that from that time on, the spring clouds began to like rainy weather more and more.
At home on weekdays, drinking a cup of hot tea with a faint tea fragrance, sitting on the window of the room and watching the rain outside the street; Or in the classroom of the school, take advantage of the free time between classes to relax and look at the campus scenery outside through the window; Or even to say that you can really feel the humidity of the rain on the court......
These are Kasuga's favorite things to do on a rainy day!
At the same time, if in the case of a game, a rainy day is exactly the best home advantage in the form of Kasuga Cloud!
Because at present, Kasugamo can only ensure that he can throw his ultimate killer ball in this state when it rains to a certain extent, a thousand butterfly balls.
Normally, Kasugayun has no way to say that this move is the ultimate kill, even if he deliberately wets his hands with water and lets himself throw the famous 'saliva ball', he still can't throw a thousand butterfly balls.
The skill and mentality required is too much for the pitcher......
And right now, an external factor that can make Kasugayun feel that throwing this move is forming, how can this not make him feel happy and excited to the point of madness!
"Whew! ~”
"Pong! ~”
"The batsman is out! ~”
"Whew! ~”
"Pong! ~”
"3 good balls, batsman out! ~”
Taking advantage of this super good state, Kasugamo easily solved the OUT of the first two hitters of the new academy without much effort in the defensive pitching in the second half of the 6th inning.
However, at this moment, the sound of the stadium announcing the next batter of the new academy was introduced: "As the 9 batters of the new academy, pitcher, Irie Dame, back 0!" ~”
It was the relay pitcher of the new academy who had just successfully blocked the attack of the Kasuga cloud, and Irie, who was known as the snake man, came up to strike.
"Yo Xi, it's just in time! ~"Kasugayun stood on the pitcher's hill with revenge and revenge.
And Irie also released full hostility towards Kasugayun: "Shelalala~~~ little kitten, I'm here again!" This time, look where you run! ~”
Without the slightest nonsense and a war of words, Kasugayun immediately stepped on the pitcher's board after waiting for Irie of the new academy to enter the strike zone and get ready, and then spun around and threw the first angry throw at him.
"Don't talk nonsense, take me first, Thousand Illusion Ball!"
"Whew! ~”
"Pong! ~”
Irie watched the first ball pass like this, and didn't choose to shoot.
He was deliberately observing the ball path of Kasuga-yun, looking for a fighter plane: "I see, is this the famous Thousand Phantom Ball!?" Sure enough, it's so varied! So ......"
Seeing this, Irie immediately adjusted and stood forward, and at the same time, the bat in his hand was also changed to a short-touch volley, and it was placed in the middle of the good ball belt and ready to be hit.
Regarding the changes made by Irie, the casting partners of Aoba Daotai High School, Kasugayun and Yasano, naturally made adjustments quickly.
Anno immediately gave Kasuga-yun the path of the second ball and whispered: "Kasuga-kun, the second ball is attacked with the outside corner, come on!" ”
"Oh! ~”
Soon, Kasugayun pedaled the ball again.
It's still the ball of a thousand fantasy balls, but this time Kasuga's offensive route has been changed from the middle ball path just now to an outside corner attack!
"Whew! ~”
The baseball flew towards the base area at a high speed of 140, so that the hitter of the new academy in the hitting area did not have time to think about it, and directly hit the ball to the low position of the outside corner according to the way the ball was played.
"Whew! ~”
"Pong! ~”
"2 good shots! ~”
"Ahh Irie was puzzled as to why he would swing his stick empty, and thought with a shocked expression on his face: "There is such a thing...... What a capability! ~”
It turned out that for the second ball just now, Irie actually guessed the route of Kasuga's cloud pitching and hit it with a stick.
But the only thing he didn't imagine was that before the Thousand Illusion Ball went to base, there were all kinds of trajectory changes due to the different pressure and angle of the pitcher's fingers on the baseball when he hit the ball, and it would be unexpectedly large!
So feeling this, Irie became more cautious and serious in the third goal: "The little cat even dared to grin at the poisonous snake, very bold!" ~~”
"Hmph, one goal is the winner, watch the ball, make a new academy!"
already has 2 good goals, at this time, the spring clouds are not only in good shape, but even their self-confidence is bursting, so the third ball duel is coming!
This time, Kasugayun used a kill according to Anno's idea of matching the ball-phantom cut ball.
However, at the moment when Kasugamo threw his arm and was about to shoot, because of the already rainy weather and the fact that the ball became slippery after the baseball was wet, his finger pressing action when he played the ball was a little slippery.
This was originally expected by Kasuga, and he hadn't experienced the same situation before, so Kasugamo didn't show too much worry, but continued to work hard to maintain a good pitching posture and throw the ball with all his might.
But this will, as soon as the baseball is shot, Kasugamo has a vague sense of uneasiness in his heart.
"Whew! ~”
The baseball quickly flew over the distance between the pitcher's mound and home plate, and in an instant the baseball flew to the strike zone.
However, at this moment, Irie, the batter of the new academy in the strike area, suddenly showed a cold smile: "Hmph! …… I thought you were so capable! It turned out to be so unbearable, and I made a mistake to throw the ball...... In that case, I'm not going to accept it! ”
Irie looked at the path of the incoming ball, smiled coldly and then showed a cruel expression and licked his already moist lips, just like the demonic hideous face that the viper showed before its final attack, Irie also showed his hideous hunter face to Kasuga Cloud here.
"Great! ~”
One hit is a must!
The baseball was successfully caught by the batter of the new academy, Irie, and this time it was not the kind of empty blow that would miss the end just now, but a really solid baseball that flew in the middle of the batter, and instantly hit it to a very deep position in the field of the field......
"Shhh!! ~”
"Dangerous!! ~”
"Dangerous Aoba Dodai High School! ~”
"Be careful! ~ Guard, guard, defend this ball, hurry, Aoba Dotai!! ~~~”
For a while, Aoba Daotai High School was in a panic because of Kasuga's wrong shot, which caused the baseball to be knocked out.
