In terms of pitching style, in the first-year double pitching, Shibuya is undoubtedly the most similar to the existence of Shigerun, relying on a strong straight ball to suppress the hitter, and then changing the ball to increase the depth of his pitching, which is why many people regard Shigeya as the best successor to Shigerino, the ace successor of Qingdao High School in the coming year, but if you start from the essence, from the pitcher's strength, mentality, and character.

Eijun Sawamura!

This is the real protagonist ace in the original book (the second part is already an ace.) ）

It is the existence that is closest to Shigerano Shin.

This is not what is called a likeness.

It's God-like in the source!

Fearless courage, always high-spirited.

I know best what is called baseball's ace device.

That attitude that is always positive is the biggest reason why Superintendent Kataoka is willing to believe in this first-year pitcher and is willing to give him the necessary opportunity to appear (Ochiai Hiromitsu is actually a very rational supervisor, even if he is slightly affected by the atmosphere of Qingdao after coming to Qingdao, but in the end its essence has not changed, whether it is in the original book, or in this life, Ochiai Hiromitsu is the same coach, and the three high battles in the original book are the best proof, and in this life, it is suggested before the game that you can choose Sawamura to appear at the necessary moment, It's all based on rational and realistic considerations, he is indeed optimistic about the valley, but when to make what kind of choice is the most reasonable, the most sensible, Ochiai Hiromitsu will not hesitate to choose that one, regardless of personal hobbies or emotions, work is work, feelings and feelings, at this point, Ochiai Hiromitsu is undoubtedly more suitable than Kataoka Supervisor as the commander-in-chief of the team, but relatively speaking, this is just a high school student competition, and Kataoka Tetsushin is still a people's teacher, In many cases, it is from the perspective of an educator to guide and train their own players, which is why there is an essential difference between the two. ）

In the first half of the eighth inning, when the two were out, there were people on first base, and it was the fourth moment to play smoothly, and he chose to let Sawamura Eijun appear, which was not only the decision of Kataoka's supervision, but also Ochiai Hiromitsu's suggestion, purely from the perspective of safety, directly winning the game, it must only be Shigerun, but if it is from the perspective of the finals, but also from the perspective of future games, and other comprehensive factors are considered, it is also a very good choice to choose Sawamura Eijun to appear here.

Whether it is the performance against Kiryu High School in the previous training match, or the performance of Eisan Sawamura in the previous summer match, it is enough to deserve such a trust, and whether he can grasp it or not is also a test for Eisun.

Sawamura and Shibuya, which are on the same running line.

Who will be able to really take off the back of the trump card in the coming year.

This year's performance has naturally become the most important measurement and comparison data for the two.

Pitcher mound in front.

The fielders of Seido High School gathered together.

"Hehe, I didn't expect the overseer to let you play."

"Hahaha, although it's said that it's two out, but, Sawamura, you kid can't be careless."

"Ozawa Village, come on."

"Pitch with caution."

The Zhe team, Kominato Ryosuke and others also looked at Sawamura Eijun in front of them with a more or less surprised look.

"Yes, Senpai! If you don't have Xiao Ze Village, you will definitely work hard! ”

Sawamura Eijun held his head high, his eyes pupils erected, and he replied loudly at maximum volume.

"Just play your strength, Sawamura, your pitching is effective, don't be in a hurry."

Senior Chris looked at Sawamura with a soft look and said softly.

"Yes, Chris-senpai!"

The battle in the eighth game can be called the confrontation of the final game.

"I'll keep letting them fight out, and the guards behind me will be left to the seniors!!"

The opening words that are extremely rich in Sawamura's personal style.

"Come on! Sawamura. ”

"I'll leave it to you."

"Rong Chunjun, come on!"

"Suppress them, Soul Tamazawa Village!"

Not only in the field, but also in the bench and Seido High School in the stands, everyone cheered for Sawamura on the pitcher mound at this moment.

"You can, Sawamura, believe in your own strength."

Deep in the left field, Shigeno looked at the back of Rong Chun on the pitcher's mound, and a faint smile flashed in the corner of his eye.

The second throw of the eighth game?

Indeed, at that moment, Shigerno himself was ready to play.

Although it was said that it was Sawamura who chose in the end, Shigeru Ye felt a little shocked, but Shigerun, who is familiar with the original work, and in this life, how can he get along with Sawamura in the past few months, and how can he not cross this threshold as a junior who can become an ace boy in the future!?

This is not only the trust of Sawamura, but also a challenge for Sawamura itself!

“playball！！”

The high-pitched words of the presiding judge.

The noisy pavilion is beautiful, and the metal bat is clutched in the palm of the hand.

Eyes met in the air, and fierce sparks burst out.

"First goal!"

All you need to carry out the offensive desire to the end!

"Inside corner high straight ball! Cast it here, Sawamura! ”

Rong Chun's most personal position on the ball path.

"Hmm!"

The right leg that was raised high formed a straight line with home plate, and suddenly stepped on it.

"Boom"

The dust that flew up, the left arm hanging high in the air, the arm that suddenly swung as far as the eye could see.

"Huh"

This cold glow that beats out.

Flashing in the sky.

The shadow of the ball clinging to the edge and rushing in.

"Inside corner!?"

When I came into the eyes of Hiromi of the strike district pavilion.

The timing was slightly off.

"Huh"

"Pong!!"

The ball is not visible at all, and the ball speed (131KM) is not very fast, but it is like a ball shadow that appears in front of you in an instant.

"Bang"

Hiromi Reikan simply failed to respond in the most timely manner.

"Out of bounds."

It could only be regarded as a barely keeping up swing time, and the ball landed outside the boundary line of third base in the left direction of the crossing.

Fallen verdict words.

Guan Guangmei's expression also became more and more cold.

"First goal! Straight ball high in the inside corner, hitter Guanjun, reaction is a little slower, just rubbing to the edge of the ball, third base throw-in!! ”

"Yo!? Is the first ball a straight ball high in the inside corner!? ”

"Tsk, this first-grader has guts."

"I heard that this first-year student Zuo Tou also appeared in a training match with Kiryu High School before, and he did not perform well."

"Ho-ho? Then it's no wonder that Jitou chose him here, it seems that it is still worth looking forward to. ”

A strong attack on the first goal.

There is never a ball more aggressive than a straight ball from the inside corner.

"Very good, the first ball, let him miss, next, the second ball, or a straight ball high in the inside corner, this ball has to be thrown a little off, Sawamura."

At home plate, Chris senior turned slightly sideways, and the gesture code was drawn again.

On the occasion of the comparison.

Above the pitcher's mound, Sawamura nodded slightly.
