Chapter 43: The first capture of Chris in Kanto (third update)

After Sawamura came on the field, the situation has been firmly in control of the side of Seido High School.

In three games, they recovered two points and did not drop points.

But Osaka Kiryu High School is not easy to mess with, whether it is in the attack or the garrison, they are planning something.

In this way, in the first half of the seventh inning, Seido High School changed its own catcher.

Chris comes on, and Yukiichi Mikoichi also goes off.

It was a very magical substitution for the people at Kiryu High School in Osaka.

Miyuki Kazuya's strength, in the game just now, they already know very clearly.

Although there are many eye-catching star players in the current Seido High School team.

For example, the captain of the fourth baton is formed, and just watching him hit has a strong visual impact.

Supervisor Takahiro Matsukita, even said that this guy is very powerful, and he should avoid such a duel with him.

From this, it is not difficult to see that the formation is extraordinary.

Even if Seido High School can't make it to Koshien in the next summer competition. Takahiro Matsumoto was sure that if he formed such a player, he would not be buried.

As long as those professional scouts are not blind, they will inevitably put the knot in the draft squad!

This kind of beater, not to mention one in a hundred, one in a thousand, that is too petty, absolutely one in a million.

In addition to the knot, of course, it is Sawamura.

Sawamura's performance in both aspects of the pitch is dizzying. Considering that he is only a first-year, I am afraid that his future achievements will be more than forming.

Others, like Ryosuke Kominato, are also very eye-catching.

Even if the team of Seido High School is such a star, it can't hide the brilliance of Miyuki.

His presence is just as strong as a mess.

Matching, catching, containment, including batting......

A catcher should have all the qualities, he does not lack.

Such a catcher, even if other teams kowtow, they have to be coaxed.

Qingdao High School was even able to let him rotate?

Takahiro Matsumoto's face was a little distorted, and almost, his true nature was exposed again.

Under the reminder of his own disciple, he finally managed to hold back his irritable mood.

"Superintendent Kataoka, you really treat us as practice opponents."

"You're welcome, keep going for me, and if you have a chance to get on base, find a way to score a point."

Takahiro Matsumoto must carry out the previous tactics to the end.

Chris is in this case, on the field.

Before coming on the field, Chris took the initiative to find Sawamura.

"How much longer?"

When the master asked, Sawamura naturally answered respectfully.

"Don't worry, but there are only three rounds left, and there is no problem in holding on to the end."

Chris ignored Sawamura's answer and continued to look at Sawamura until he felt furious when he saw Sawamura.

If you say before, Kiryu High School in Osaka did not use tactics that consume physical strength. Sawamura persevered until the end of the game, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

In the course of the game, Sawamura is very good at adjusting his state. If he throws at his own pace, six games will only be about 50 balls.

Even if Sawamura practiced very badly yesterday and took a day off, Sawamura still has this little physical strength.

However, since the beginning, Sawamura's physical exertion has increased, and it is difficult to say how long Sawamura can hold on to throwing at such a pace.

Your own family knows your own affairs.

This judgment, Sawamura himself has a spectrum in his heart. After all, he is not an ordinary person, as a person who often reserves physical strength through training, he knows his own limits very well.

"If you keep pitching at peak level, 20 balls! If it is mixed with a change ball, seventeen or eighteen balls. If you can arrange fishing balls in the middle, thirty or forty balls. ”

Sawamura 1510 said.

Chris nodded.

It was worse than he expected.

The so-called peak pitching means that it can ensure the speed and power of the ball and the accuracy of ball control.

This requires not only great mental strength, but also physical strength. When the physical exertion reaches a certain level, the pitcher's ball control and ball power will definitely decrease.

Unscrupulously throws all kinds of changing balls, and Sawamura can shoot about 20 balls in total.

It is obviously impossible to use these twenty balls to support three innings.

Then we have to think of something else......

But now, Osaka Kiryu's players, under their supervision, want to consume Sawamura's physical strength aggressively, and they will never allow themselves to be easily eliminated.

"In that case, we have to take some risks."

Now Chris understands the point of practicing for the game.

Superintendent Kataoka has chosen Sawamura as the trump card, and you must know that the responsibility of the ace is very great. Especially in the big game, when Sawamura is left in the end, there will definitely be.

In case at that time, Sawamura's physical strength is exhausted.

What should Qingdao do?

It is to continue to believe in Sawamura and leave the stage to him. Or do you want someone else to take your place?

This is the true intention of Kataoka to arrange Sawamura.

Knowing Kataoka's intentions, Chris naturally wants to help Sawamura get through the difficulties.

"For a real ace, throwing the ball, uncontrolled, is absolutely not allowed. That's tantamount to pinning the number of outs on God, or on the opponent. This is definitely not going to work! ”

"So a good pitcher must be able to think and dare to think. At a certain point, the picture of solving the opponent can even appear directly in the pitcher's mind. ”

This is what Chris taught Sawamura.

Now, Sawamura has told Chris about himself. The two thought of it together.

That's how to use those balls, that hold, the remaining three innings.

If you solve one with three balls, you also need twenty-seven balls to hold up three innings.

Therefore, it is unrealistic to rely on strikeouts.

If you can't strike out, then just throw the ball and let the hitter hit!

"But they've already made up their minds that they're going to drain my stamina?"

Sawamura thought suspiciously.

"If the other party doesn't make a move, it doesn't mean that we can't let him make a move. Can you fish, as long as the bait is big enough, I think they will be tempted. ”

First Ball: Straight Ball in the Center!

After Chris gave Sawamura a code, he squatted directly in the position of the catcher.

For the first ball, the hitter did not swing the bat, but waited patiently for the ball to pass.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

It wasn't until Sawamura's pitching was over that the hitter came to his senses.

It was a straight ball just now, and he didn't even notice it before.

Satisfied, Chris passed the ball back to Sawamura and then crouched down again.

At the same time, the rest area of Kiryu High School in Osaka.

"Why is that new catcher so familiar?"

"yes, like I've seen it there."

A couple of third-year substitutes, staring at Chris, thoughtful.

"His name is Takigawa Chrisyu, have you heard of it?"

Superintendent Matsumoto asked strangely.

"It's been so long, I can't remember what it looks like. But Takigawa Chris, isn't he the first to catch in the young stick of Kanto Middle School? ”

Kanto No. 1 catch, Takigawa Chris.
