"Who do you say he is?"

Superintendent Matsumoto's face suddenly froze, and he no longer smiled as before. The first catch in Kanto, this name rarely appears, and in his impression, he has heard of it.

Baseball is a sport that is most famous, first of all, it is said that it is pitchers and strong hits.

This is the same as in football, it is easier to be famous for the strikers, which is the same reason.

The importance of other positions is not necessarily worse than them, and the strength may be stronger than them, but when it comes to fame, others cannot compare with strong hitting and strong throwing.

For example, Kanto's first left throw into Gong Ming.

This name appeared very early. There is no need to say much about Narumiya's own strength, but the most important reason why he is famous is because he is a pitcher.

If he is transferred to another position, even if he has the same wonderful performance, his fame will definitely not be as good as it is now.

In this case, it is very difficult for the catcher to come out if he is not a strong hit.

Maybe you'll also have a little fame, and maybe you'll also get the favor of high school. But when it comes to the name of Kanto No. 1, I'm afraid it's hard to convince the public.

In the eyes of most people, a catcher is just a supporting job. Even if your team is doing well, most people will give it to the pitcher. and will not pay too much attention to the catcher.

If a catcher really becomes a talent, he still has to have professional scouts to scout and professional data to analyze after high school......

This is what makes a good catcher worthy.

When he was in middle school, he became a famous catcher. Even if it doesn't cause a sensation, the gold content is very high.

This is also the reason why Superintendent Matsumoto is confused.

If Qingdao High School really hid such a catcher in the snow, it would be impossible for him to be silent for two consecutive years.

"I don't know exactly what happened. Since entering high school, I haven't heard much about him again. I thought he wouldn't play baseball anymore after he entered high school. I didn't expect to join Qingdao! ”

The player who recognized Chris said hesitantly.

"How strong is he?"

Matsumoto continued.

"Very strong!"

"How strong?"

Hearing Matsumoto's reluctance to give up, the player hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile.

'In all the games we played against him, we never won. Not once! ”

Wise and brave, invincible Chris.

This is the origin of his first catcher in Kanto.

The Hard Ball League is not as cohesive and large as the Soft Ball League. He has several alliances, and the Kwantung Alliance is the largest alliance in the entire alliance.

In the biggest league, Chris was the main catcher in his third year of middle school and was invincible.

"I'll go!"

A second-grade elementary school boy was dumbfounded.

"So violent? How I haven't heard of it. ”

The third-grade senior gave him a blank look: "At that time, you were still messing around on the bench, of course you couldn't feel his strength." In addition, Chris's Little League is also one of the strongest teams in Tokyo. After all, the catcher is not a very showy position. So except for these main players in the same class and those who have played against him, others are not impressed with him. ”

There is another sentence that this player did not say.

People are forgetful, and when they enter high school, they don't see Chris anymore. Chris was gradually forgotten.

Unexpectedly, in the last year of high school, he suddenly killed.

"In other words, this player is also a very powerful guy?"

A near-perfect ace Ei Sawamura! A newcomer with extraordinary potential for speeding balls, Akira Shibuyani!

And the catcher Miyuki, who can lead the team completely! Now do you want to add, Chris who was the first to catch the Kanto Little League in the past?

How much incense did Superintendent Kataoka burn in his last life to have such a creation?

Last year, when Kiryu High School in Osaka won the Koshien semi-victory, Coach Takahiro Matsumoto still thought that his subordinates were all elite soldiers.

Now in comparison, where are the elite soldiers and strong generals, it is simply what rotten fish and shrimp are.

"It's so jealous!"

"Good shot!"

Just as the people at Kiryu High School in Osaka were discussing Chris, the game on the field was still going on.

At this time, Sawamura was already two good goals ahead.

His two shots were particularly sweet, as if they had been added with sugar, which made people greasy.

The speed of the ball, the power of the ball, also dropped.

Because of the constant rush forward, the physical strength is even more consumed.

Overall, it feels like it's about to collapse.

"Almost!"

The beater eagerly glanced at his own superintendent.

That's the request to attack.

"No, it's early. It is necessary to make the pitcher completely unable to crawl. Didn't Superintendent Kataoka test how his players would compete in extreme exhaustion? Then we'll fulfill him and keep going! ”

After the two good balls are behind, the hitter hits the ball towards the pitcher.

Sawamura spread his gloves to catch the ball and passed it to first base.

Three balls! There are about 17 goals left.

The second hitter used almost the exact same routine, seducing with a short hit before the two good shots, and if Sawamura didn't run forward, they would go straight to the pitcher.

Sawamura looks like it's crumbling, and with the pitcher rolling the ground in front of him, the runner has a good chance of running to first base.

In this way, Sawamura did not dare not run forward.

Exactly the same routine, after making Sawamura dive twice.

The hitter started to hit the ball towards Sawamura.

However, he didn't play well, and the baseball was deflected to the shortstop position.

"Hee hop, haha."

Kuramochi laughed evilly, picked up the ball, and sent it to first base.

"Out!"

There was no one on the base.

Sawamura threw more than six, plus the stamina consumed by the dive.

He can now accurately grasp the ball in possession, not even 15.

The game continues.

The third beater, looking at the crumbling Sawamura, just thought that the time was ripe.

He kept praying with his eyes to the overseer in the rest area for orders.

Let me attack, let me fight!

"Not yet, not yet!"

In the rest area, Takahiro Matsumoto's attitude was very resolute.

At this time, even Osaka Kiryu High School's own players couldn't understand what their coach thought.

Finally, the third hitter, facing Sawamura.

After Sawamura threw one ball, the second ball, did not throw a good ball belt.

The number of balls is one good and one bad.

The beater continues to swing short bats.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

"Ping!"

"Out !!"

Three outs, offense and defense exchanged.

Chris quietly glanced at the rest area of Kiryu High School in Osaka.

In this game alone, Sawamura's pitches were half of the 20.

The bait has been dropped, and the next step is to see if the fish catches the bait.

On the other side, the rest area of Kiryu High School in Osaka.

Inspector Matsumoto's face returned to that kind appearance.

"It's time!"
