Chapter 21: I Don't Want to Be Embarrassed (Part 1)

"Good shot!"

The first ball was a good ball, the ball was tricky, and Miyuki was very rational and did not choose to swing the bat. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

From his point of view, it was not easy to hit Imai's ball perfectly. Imai is not as good as Harada and Sawamura in pitching. But with his ball control and ball power, he is undoubtedly one of the top pitchers in the country, at least he has stepped into this threshold.

In a head-to-head duel, it's not surprising that Imai suppressed Miyuki for one or two seats, but to say that he can always suppress Miyuki is nonsense.

Yu Xing is also the top fighter in the country, although it can't compare to Yang Ping and Thunder City. But it can't be weaker than a hitter like Kotani.

In the face of such an opponent, it is also difficult to be struck out by acting, okay?

Similarly, Miyuki is a big problem for Imai. Just as Aodo guessed, Imai did want to copy Sugimoto and Narumiya's approach, put Miyuki on second base, and then escort Yang Ping to first base in that situation.

Escorting is a technical job, and it is not always possible to choose escorting.

For example, when no one is out and no one is on base, the escort hitter is not very good. This looks cowardly, the pitcher does not dare to go head-to-head with the hitter, how can the game be played?

In comics, it is common to see scenes where some ace pitchers can't avoid hitters, and the two most basic ones are no one on base and full base. With no one on base, the pitcher's escape is conservative. Running off with a batter at full base basically means you're not qualified to stand on the pitcher's mound.

Of course, since there is such an inescapable showdown, there is naturally a situation that can be guaranteed.

This situation is that there are people on second or third base, and it is the turn of the strong batter to strike.

As long as the first base bag is empty, the strong batter that keeps the opponent alive will not be considered cowardly. On the contrary, it will look very sane!

Incidentally, there are star pitchers. The requirements for star pitchers will be much higher, and for the average pitcher who can guarantee the hitter, it will not be for the star pitcher.

This is also the reason why everyone did not dare to escort Yang Ping frequently at the beginning. Later, with the improvement of Yang Ping's strength and status, escorting him was not so dazzling. As long as the timing is right, the star pitcher also began to escort Yang Ping.

Even those with high strength will trick Yang Ping. Let Xiao Minato or Miyuki go to the base first, and then escort Yang Ping. Try to avoid a head-to-head confrontation with Yang Ping, a typical example is Sugimoto Sangen of the Holy Light Academy, and it is he who carries forward this trick and is cited as a classic by the team that studies Qingdao.

What Imai wants to do now is to copy Sugimoto's approach and try to avoid a head-to-head confrontation with Yang Ping.

But when it was time to actually do it, Imai realized that things were far from being as simple as he thought.

First of all, Miyuki himself is also a top fighter in the country, and his strength in striking is very good. He is capable of hitting home runs, and his total number of home runs is in Qingdao, which is second only to Yang Ping. In the face of such an opponent, if you don't go all out, Imai simply can't deal with him. Not to mention letting Miyuki hit the ball into a second run according to his heart.

This is simply an impossible task in Imai's opinion.

No, there can be no distractions!

Imai forced himself to calm down. At this time, even he couldn't help but admire, Sugimoto Sangen and Narumiya Narumi dared to play like this because of how confident they were in their pitching.

The most terrifying thing is that these two guys have successfully played, not only avoiding too many head-to-head confrontations with Yang Ping, but also blocking Yang Ping's stealing base by the way.

Kill two birds with one stone.

High school baseball is a scary place!

After entering the first place in Kanto, Imai had such feelings for the second time.

In fact, if you think about it deeply, it is even more terrifying. Narumiya and Sugimoto would rather take such a risk than face off against Yang Ping.

How powerful is Yang Ping's striking strength?

It's like an unknown monster.

Of course, in order to show the posture of fighting, it is impossible for all the seats to deliberately avoid Yang Ping, so one or two head-to-head duels are inevitable. But he Imai had already faced Yang Ping head-on before, and his fighting posture was obvious.

Therefore, the ideal result is to be able to routineize Yang Ping, and then face off head-to-head with Qingdao's five, six, and seven sticks. Although the three beaters are not weak, compared to Yang Pinglai, Imai is still sure to suppress them.

Newton once said that the reason why he was able to achieve so much was because he stood on the shoulders of giants.

Imai also has such feelings, if he can really deal with Qingdao and restrain Yang Ping. That's also because he stood on the shoulders of giants. If it weren't for the fact that when the national heroes fought against Qingdao, they provided all kinds of routines, and he really didn't dare to think like that for a while.

Don't worry about second base, one, two, and third base are good, as long as you don't let Miyuki hit a home run, it's a victory.

With this determination, Imai's pitching suddenly became bold.

"Whoosh!"

Baseball is fast, but it's also sweet. Miyuki on the sweet strike zone is tired.

The opponent is already a little blatant, throwing with a sweet ball of high balls. This ball is actually very easy to handle except for the awkward posture when hitting and not easy to hit a home run.

If you don't swing a stick at such a ball, Miyuki can't convince herself.

"Ping!"

As soon as he thought of it, he waved his bat decisively, and after the baseball was hit, it flew out quickly.

After watching Miyuki hit out, Imai on the pitcher's mound breathed a sigh of relief: It's done!

Such a flight trajectory can't fly a home run, and as long as it's not a home run, he can handle it. Even if it's a first run, he doesn't care. After all, he doesn't have the strength of Sugimoto Sangen and Narumiya Naruto, and he can't control it accurately enough to make Miyuki only hit a second home run.

"Smack!"

It's just that the baseball didn't land in bounds, but outside the bounds. It's almost a full meter from the sideline.

"Out of bounds!"

In the strike zone, Miyuki put on a regretful expression.

The little friends in the cowshed know that Miyuki wants to be struck, because if you hit the boundary, the ball that could have been caught may not be killed by the first in Kanto. So the best way to commit suicide is to be struck.

It's not good to be hit by strikeouts, and it's best if you have to hit a ball in the middle.

"The acting is really good, it's just a little more thrilling."

Ochiai rubbed his eyes, he was starting to like his captain a little. In doing so, I'm afraid that even the opponent will not suspect anything. And the striking skills shown by this strike against Miyuki are also amazing.

After the success of this set of tactics in the future, it is also expected that Miyuki will win a home run by himself.

……

One ball didn't swing the bat, one ball hit out of bounds, and in just two balls, Miyuki was chased by two good balls.

It was originally an extremely favorable situation for the first in Kanto, but Imai couldn't be happy, he had a strange feeling, this guy just now didn't mean it, right?

Although his blow doesn't seem to be a problem, but just now he threw such a sweet ball, with Miyuki's strength, he won't be able to hit the boundary?
