Chapter 192: Shifting Gears (First Shift)
Troll High School has just replaced the injured catcher and is about to replace their good performing ace.
For the time being, the players of Seido High School don't know about this, and they are still discussing with great interest how to defeat Nitta.
It's a bit of a pretense of lightheartedness, even though the previous injuries to the Troll Catcher really didn't have much to do with them. But after all, they were injured, and the players of Qingdao High School inevitably felt a little embarrassed.
They pretended to be relaxed chatting, but they also wanted to suppress this feeling in their hearts.
You can't just show mercy to your opponent because they're injured, that's disrespectful to your opponent.
In the second half of the fifth inning, the troll Otomaki High School attacked.
At this time, the hitters of Troll Otomaki High School had their turn to play the core line from the fourth base.
The players of Seido High School changed their equipment and began to play on the field one after another.
Before going on the field, Sawamura Eijun suddenly said to his teammates around him.
"I'll let them keep fighting, and the guards behind them will be left to everyone!"
This made everyone stunned, but fortunately, they were not stupid, and they immediately understood what Sawamura meant.
He's going to change gears!
Ryosuke Kominato still looked smiling: "It's long overdue, don't be reckless alone." ”
Tie up: "Rest assured to vote!" ”
Masuko: "Woohahaha! ”
Jun Izaki: "Just let them call." ”
Kuramochi: "I can't wait. ”
Hakushu: "......"
Itai: Sawamura!
None of these teammates were unsupportive of Sawamura's decision.
They knew that since Sawamura had chosen this way, he must have a reason. Although listening to the radio, the commentary shouted hoarsely to break the record, it was also quite enjoyable.
Even if it's not them who broke the record, but just their teammates, they feel honored.
Since last night, their hearts have been tightly connected with Sawamura Eijun, they are all comrades-in-arms who wear the school uniform of Seido High School and work hard for the honor of Seido High School.
The fourth batter of Troll High is the outfielder who has just been replaced.
I'm afraid that this situation was not thought of before the troll high school competition.
The most important fourth batter of their team turned out to be their own substitute.
But there is no way, the rules are like this, even if the catcher Sato is out of the field because of an injury, the person who substitutes him on the field will also take his place and serve as the fourth baseman.
The outfielder, holding his bat, looked at Sawamura with a look of jealousy.
When he was in the rest area, he saw Sawamura Eijun at the mercy of his own main force in various tricks.
You must know that one of his main teammates is counted as one on weekdays, and they are all masters that he cannot hope for.
is different from the situation of Qingdao High School, although there is a relatively large gap between the main players and the substitute players of Qingdao High School, but if you really want to pull it out and form two teams to compete against each other, it is not completely impossible to play.
Even if it was to put Sawamura on the side of the main force, facing the pitcher formation formed by Akira Shibuyani and Koichiro Tanba, and the line and defense formed by the substitute players.
The main force of Qingdao High School has to be very entangled for a while in order to win the game.
To put it bluntly, although the strength between the main force and the substitute of Qingdao High School is not of the same grade, the grade will not be too bad.
The situation at Troll High School is different!
They can have such a strong strength now, supervising Xintian's tuning is one thing, and the most important reason is that their group of players is good enough. Long before entering high school, Hongo and Hongo's seniors were already showing off their skills in national competitions.
In fact, if it weren't for opponents like Sawamura Eijun and the Akagi Middle School baseball team, Hongo and Hongo's seniors would have been invincible.
Of course.
Even if they dominate the country in middle school, they will not have the same influence as Sawamura Eijun and the Akagi High School baseball team. After all, there are many other factors that contribute to the improvement of influence in addition to achievements and strength.
But at the very least, it shows that their talent is really good.
Excellent talent, coupled with the teaching of Nitta overseer. That's why there is now this troll big Fujimaki High School that is like a giant dark horse.
But even in this high school, the difference in strength between the players is very large. In addition to the strong pitcher lineup, in other positions, the gap between the main force and the bench is not a grade at all.
The previous Sato, even by Sawamura's level, was a very tricky opponent.
As for the current outfielder, Sawamura didn't feel any danger at all, and it was easy for him to strike.
Resisting the urge to strike, Sawamura Eisumi pulled out the stance, throwing the baseball in his hand.
The all-out efforts of the first four games have consumed a lot of Sawamura's physical strength. To finish the game, he had to adjust his pace.
Reasonable control of one's physical strength is very necessary in high school. Instead, it's professional, because every team has a particularly strong pitcher lineup, and the distribution of physical strength is not so important.
At that time, people need to think about how to better explode their state.
Playing against the new four batters who had just played at the troll Otomaki High School, Sawamura Eijun was distracted.
No one may believe it, but it's the way it is. When Sawamura Eijun dealt with him, that is, his professionalism forced him not to be careless, and it was nonsense to say how much energy was spent.
Turn back and talk about the fourth outfielder.
He probably has never enjoyed the glory of the fourth baton in his life, and it is quite uncomfortable to stay in this position.
Especially Sawamura Eijun gave him such a terrifying impression before, and when he was ready to strike, he naturally couldn't help but be timid.
Facing Sawamura's first goal, he couldn't swing the baton at all. I watched the little white ball burrow into Chris's glove.
"Smack!"
"Good shot!"
The hitter seemed to be completely stunned by Sawamura's pitch.
Such a result naturally made the supporters of Qingdao High School, the brothers of the Demon King Praetorian Guard, and the brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood very satisfied.
They happily shouted the name of Sawamura Eisun, or the nickname of the Great Demon King. It's as if he wants to pass on his power to Sawamura.
The situation was one-sided, and the beaters trembled under the deterrence of Sawamura Eijun.
This is not the case.
The beater of Troll High School was not really scared and trembled, on the contrary, now he was not scared at all, but angry.
Sawamura Eijun, who originally existed in his mind as a hideous demon king, didn't seem to be as terrifying as he imagined.
This guy's pitching is not as fast, as strong, and invincible as he imagined.
Even if it was the first time I saw Sawamura Eisumi pitching, he was not familiar with his strange pitching posture, but he seemed confident that he could hit the ball.
I can hit it!
You'll be able to hit it!
At this moment, the outfielder, who had just been substituted on the field, even had a feeling.
Maybe he's the legendary one-in-a-million super genius himself!
