Chapter 80: No Regrets! (1st Update)
"What is it?"
Superintendent Chasawa looked at the pitcher's mound in amazement, and a chill ran in his heart.
Hurry, too fast!
Even the players of Kogyo Kogyo have used pitching machines to practice simulated hitting at a speed of 150 kilometers.
But when they saw Gu Xiao pitching, they were still at a loss.
The reason why Seido High School players were able to easily cope with Ito, who had a ball speed of 145 km/h, was that their biggest imaginary opponent in Tokyo was a high-speed pitcher with a ball speed of well over 145 km/h.
This ball speed has been practiced many times by Seido High School players. This is also the reason why they did not run away when facing Ito's pitch and were able to swing the baton calmly.
However, this is not the case with the players of Koshida Industry, although they have also practiced for 150 kilometers of pitching, but most of them are a kind of insight practice, which means that they are mainly familiar, and it is not mandatory for players to hit the ball at this speed.
This is fundamentally different from the Qingdao players. Because there are pitchers with a ball speed of more than 145 kilometers in Tokyo, all the hitters at Seido High School have to hit the ball for 145 kilometers or even 150 kilometers.
This gap in consciousness directly causes two completely different effects. The first time a Seido High School player faced Iten's pitch, he could not back down at all and calmly swing his baton to complete the blow.
On the contrary, the players of Komata Industry were able to avoid escaping in the face of Akira Shibuya's speeding pitch. As for calming down and swinging the bat, it's simply impossible.
150 km and 140 km, on the surface, there is only a 10 km difference in ball speed.
But these ten kilometers are two completely different realms.
The 150-kilometer ball, even in the major leagues, can be used as a fast ball. That is not a realm that ordinary people can hone to by just hard work.
From the pitcher's hand to the catcher's glove, the 150-kilometer ball is thrown in just 0.4 seconds. In these 0.4 seconds, the hitter has to see the ball clearly, and the speed and skill of the swing must also keep up.
Without enough practice and mental preparation, how can you hit the game?
That's the scariest part of a speedball pitcher.
When I usually practice, Xiao's performance is full of loopholes, and it doesn't seem to be trustworthy at all.
But once you get on the pitcher's mound, the effect is completely different.
His sense of presence is incomparable to that of ordinary people.
"Good shot!"
"Good shot!"
"Good shot!!"
"Strikeout!!
The first batter of Konda Industry was knocked out without any suspense.
In the face of such a sideways kill, there is nothing to be done about it.
"Good shot!"
"Good shot!"
"Good shot!!"
"Strikeout!!
There was no suspense as well, and Tsukata's second batter was followed by a strikeout.
At this time, Chazawa, the superintendent of Konda Industries, had discovered a very big loophole in Akira Shibuyani's pitching.
That is, many of the balls he threw were fluttering, and they floated very high, beyond the good ball belt above.
Looking from the side, he could clearly see that these balls were all high bad balls. It can even be said that they are very obvious high bad balls!
Since the players can't hit, they can also take advantage of this opportunity and choose to entangle with the valley. As long as they let Fallu shoot more balls, they will gradually find more loopholes in Falling.
"Don't shoot at the high bad ball!"
Wait until the third batter is on the strike zone. Inspector Chasawa immediately gave him instructions to let go of all the high balls, whether they were good or bad!
This requirement is not difficult to do, even if it is a short 0.4 seconds, it is not impossible to distinguish between high and low balls.
It's just that from the perspective of the strike zone, Xiao's pitching is far from that simple.
When the baseball first comes over, it gives the hitter the feeling that the ball is very low and low. If you don't swing the bat, you're sure to score a good ball. And after getting a few meters closer to the hitter, the ball will suddenly soar!
The super high ball speed and the piercing sound completely disturbed the nerves of the beater.
It may be too advanced to say this, but the actual situation is that the hitter stood in the strike zone and watched Gu Xiao's pitch, and he was completely frightened! This is also a strong school like Komata Industry, if you change to an ordinary school, the average beater is likely to be paralyzed on the ground in fright.
This is the pitching of Akira Tsukitani!
Without Sawamura's information, you simply don't have the qualifications to stand on the strike zone to play Sawamura's pitch.
Similarly, if you don't do any psychological construction, you are looking for death when you go to face the pitching of Gu Xiao!
"Good shot!"
"Good shot!"
"Good shot!!"
"Strikeout!!
There was no suspense, another three-goal strikeout.
Nine goals, three strikeouts!
Although if the hitter doesn't swing the bat, a full five of these nine balls are on the high side!
But there is no if in the world, just looking at the performance of the game, Akira Shibuyani stood on the pitcher mound of Qingdao High School for the first time, and the performance was perfect. It's no worse than Sawamura's performance after standing on the pitcher's mound yesterday. Or even simply to say that it caused a sensational effect and visual impact. The kind of visual impact and effect brought by Xiaogu is far more than that of Sawamura.
Monster! It's really a monster!
Three outs, offense and defense exchanged.
In the second half of the fourth inning, Qingdao High School attacked.
At this time, the beaters of Qingdao High School have already been reincarnated for two rounds!
The first stick of the start, or a position.
This time, Kuramochi took the position of the left side.
The strike zone on the left is closer to the direction of first base!
Three of them judged that Kurachi was likely to steal the base! He still remembers the speed that Kurachi showed before, and in order to prevent such an unfavorable situation, he also made a special target.
The defense is forward, and at the same time, the pitch is mainly low-angle balls, and it is not easy for Kuramori to play short even if he wants to play such a ball!
And even if it is a short hit touching the ball, the probability of hitting the ball is also very high, and for a short game, rolling the ball is not a difficult way to handle!
Sanjo thought very well, especially when he saw Kurachi swinging a short stick, he was more confident and ready to take Kurachi.
Where's the thought of the cunning Kurachi, he didn't use a short stick at all, he took the bat back, and then hit the ball again.
Scam hit!
Kurachi deceived and hit the base successfully!
No one is out, there is someone on first base.
Today's position is simply like opening a hanging, and it is omnipotent.
Three hits, two bases!
Compared to his previous performance, it was a perfect mess.
"Hip hop, haha......"
Kuramochi himself is happy and happy with his own performance so far.
The careful knot that had been bothering him was also untied by himself.
He was extremely grateful that Komata Industry had given up on him in the first place.
If it wasn't for Konda Industry giving up on him, how would he have come to Seongdo? How can there be such a huge improvement?
"Second baseman, second baseman, Ryosuke Kominato!"
