Chapter 193: Sakurazawa's Small Test of Strength (Third Update)
PS: One chapter is still owed.
"Buzz-Buzz-Buzz"
"Line up."
"Go!!"
"Oh oh oh oh!!"
The loud shouts of teenagers, the piercing sirens that resounded over the court, quickly rushed from the benches on both sides to the two teams of teenagers at home plate.
"Salute!!"
"Please advise!!"
The 88th National College Baseball Championship Nishitokyo Regional Preliminaries, Semifinals, Game 1, Seido High School vs. Sakurasawa High School, with the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, the grand opening!!
"Come on, Qingdao High School!!"
"It's not just about winning games, it's about winning cleanly."
"Qingdao, Qingdao, Qingdao."
"Superintendent Kataoka!!"
"East !!"
Almost the entire stadium was noisy with the cheers of Seido High School.
Crowds in the stands were boisterous.
The solemn and faint standing on the stands on both sides of the Inaki Industrial and the three high school players of the city university, also plan to take a good look at some information that may become their opponents in the finals before their own games start, especially Qingdao High School, no matter what the outside world says about Qingdao High School, at least in the eyes of the three high schools and Inashi, Qingdao High School will always be the most vigilant team, it is really because Qingdao High School's line has been the strongest line in Tokyo in the past few years, only the three high schools that have played with Qingdao High School, Daoshi and they know very well the strength of Qingdao, as long as they are a little careless, defeat will be a proper result.
"That kid, did you actually go to guard the left field? Tsk,It's really interesting.。。。。 ”
In the audience seat on the west side, among the players watching the game from Daocheng Industry.
Narumiya leaned on the railing in front of him, looking at Shigerino Shin who was trotting in the direction of the left field, and obviously showed a look of schadenfreude.
As the current Tokyo should be the most concerned about the existence of Shigerano Shin.
In the last battle of Xianquan, Shigerino Shin was suppressed and then forced to go down, Narumiya Naru definitely knew.
"That's why you're still far away, Shigerino Shin."
The corners of Cheng Gongming's eyes rose slightly, revealing an extremely smug smile.
Carl Ross on the side can know what is going on in the mind of this living treasure just by seeing the smile of Cheng Gong Ming.
"In the first half of the first game, the attack of Seido High School, a stick, the right fielder, Hirosaka-kun."
Remember, even if the first round of offense is completely wiped out, it doesn't matter, don't make a rash shot, just like in training, wait for the moment when the ball is close before swinging the bat, and the opponent's defense is not solid, there is no need to deliberately find any gaps, as long as you can catch the ball and hit, it is inevitable.
In front of the bench, Superintendent Kataoka looked solemnly at Mr. Hirosaka, who was walking into the strike zone not far away, and the meaning that flashed in his eyes was very clear to Mr. Urasaka's heart.
"Don't be fooled by the ball itself, wait for the nearest limit distance before swinging."
Mr. Osaka paced up to the strike zone, constantly admonishing himself in his heart, stepping on the dirt on the strike zone with his right foot, and gently exhaling a breath of turbid air from his mouth.
It's different from the third-grade period in the original book.
Sakurasawa High School in front of him,Not only Chang Xuming's strength has not reached the height of the original book,The defense of its own team is not so solid,In the previous rounds,There have been some mistakes in coordination,To be reasonable,Sakurasawa High School was able to reach the semifinals,Except for Chang Xuming's butterfly ball, most teams can't deal with it,The role of these external factors such as signing is actually quite big.。
Therefore, the only thing that Qingdao High School has to consider is how to attack the butterfly ball.
It doesn't need much, just two or three hits.
was able to shake the heart of that pitcher.
Butterfly balls are the most important things for pitchers to ensure a stable mentality, and once the mentality is shaken, it is almost self-destructed.
The goal is simple, but it's also complex.
In the final analysis, the core character is the second-grade ace in front of him - Chang Xuming!!
“playball!!”
"Ordinary heart, normal heart, normal heart."
Standing on the pitcher's hill and looking at the senior of Osaka in the strike zone, it would definitely be a lie to say that Chang Xuming did not have any pressure in his heart, but as the trump card who led the team to win victories, Chang Xuming knew better what kind of role he should play at this time.
"It's the same as what I used to do, extremely ordinary pitching, extremely ordinary answering sets, extremely ordinary winning outs."
That's right, the most important thing Chang Xuming needs to do is to give his teammates courage.
The so-called famous family, the so-called king Qingdao.
They Sakurazawa High School didn't have the strength to fight!!
"Come on, Amin!!"
At home plate, he can also understand Chang Xuming's inner thoughts, the position that quickly squatted and captured, and the position of the ball set.
Chang Xuming raised his left leg calmly and raised his arm high.
"Boom"
At the moment of sudden movement.
"Huh"
With the stirring dust, the white shadow flickered out from Chang Xuming's fingertips, and the swaying white shadow flickered in the direction of home plate.
"It's coming!!"
The small white ball that floats back in mid-air is just like the meaning of the name "non-spinning ball", and the surface of the ball does not have the slightest self-rotation trajectory.
It's just a ball shadow shaking around.
"Huh"
Hold it to the extreme.
Senior Aisaka quickly danced the metal bat in his hand.
"Smack"
"Good shot!!"
But such a blow,It's hard to grasp the timing of swinging the stick.,Especially in the position.,Not everyone can do the same monster reaction ability like Dongqingguo、Yuki Tetsuya.,The same is true of the predecessors of Urasaka.,It's already a relatively reasonable calculation of the timing and position of the strike.,But it's still a little bit of a big deviation.,Empty swing.,Watching the ball fly into the Sakurasawa catcher ball set behind him.。
"It's even trickier than it looks on video...
Feng Ban gently exhaled a breath of turbidity, shook the metal bat in his hand, calmed down, and re-arranged the striking position, Feng Ban senior looked at the direction of the pitcher mound again with a resolute expression.
Control the timing and choose the best position to shoot.
It sounds easy, but when it comes to butterfly balls, it's quite difficult to put them into practice.
"Huh"
It didn't look like any ball speed at all, and it wasn't a very sharp ball.
It floated in mid-air.
"It's really a nasty ball!!"
"Huh"
"Pong"
"Bang"
"Shortstop!!"
The swing of the extreme distance, the last time it was late, this time it was a little early.
The shadow of the ball that swept out.
It smashed lightly and heavily on the surface on the right side of the pitcher's mound, and Chang Xuming quickly turned his head and shouted.
"No problem!!"
Masaaki Inamoto reacted quickly and intercepted in front of the ball.
"Smack"
Catch the ball, pass the ball.
All the action is done in one go, without the slightest stagnation of standard guarding movements.
"Out!!"
For Sakurasawa High School, the most important first number of outs was easily won by Nagao Akira!!
