Chapter 44: Sawamura, Sawamura! (3rd Update)

"Out!"

"Out!"

"Out !!"

In the first game, Sawamura struck three consecutive strikeouts, guiding the audience's passion to the climax.

In this game, Sawamura worked so hard and wanted to seek justice for his friends was only one of the reasons, and another reason was that his parents, parents and grandfather came to Tokyo to cheer him on.

In front of his loved ones, Sawamura certainly wanted to behave well.

August, the hottest month of the year.

In the past two years, Sawamura has been very strict with his training. Even in the hottest months, he never let up.

In today's game, even if you throw the ball with all your might, you can't drag Sawamura down.

But the problem is that Sawamura is thinking about more than just this game, his ambition is to dominate the country.

First round, second round, quarter-finals, semi-finals, finals!

Two weeks, five games. The later it gets, the more intense the game becomes. If the physical strength can't be properly distributed, Sawamura himself won't be able to vote.

Although he can also ask Komaki for help, the problem is that with the opponent Akagi is facing now, Komaki is completely giving points to the opponent when he plays!

No matter how hard or tired he is, Sawamura himself has to survive.

In this case, he will have to take it easy when he pitches himself.

Rather than using strikeouts hard, it is better to rely on ball control, ball power and the guard behind you to win the number of outs safely.

In the second game, Sawamura changed his rhythm and no longer forced the ball that the hard-hitting shooter couldn't hit, but changed to a normal straight ball.

I originally wanted to hit Sawamura's ball, but I couldn't hit it.

Now that he suddenly saw the ball that could be hit, the players of Ku Komaki were ecstatic one by one, and frequently swung the bat.

The fourth bat hit a flat fly ball from the front of third base, then a fifth bat with an infield bounce ball from the first base, and finally a sixth bat with a rolling ball from the pitcher's front.

These balls, for the defenders, are not difficult to handle.

So the beaters are out one by one!

"The beater of Ku Xiaomu is so powerful. can often hit the ball of the big demon king. ”

For viewers who are accustomed to Sawamura's strong pitching, such a rhythm is obviously beyond their expectations.

The spectator next to him was a veteran fan. Hearing such layman's words, I couldn't help but roll my eyes.

Ku Komaki's beater is powerful, what are you kidding?

The real power is Sawamura, who deserves to be the big devil.

Any pitcher pitches the ball with his own style. What Sawamura's style is, just look at his matches against Yokozuna and Tenryuji.

That's a tough pitcher!

Such a pitcher, changing his rhythm, throwing this kind of ball to lure the hitter to swing the bat, can turn Ku Xiaomu around.

It's incredible.

"Among the active middle school students now, I'm afraid that only Sawamura can do this kind of thing."

A reporter said with emotion.

In fact, these self-righteous insiders still underestimate Sawamura.

Sawamura's pitching style is very versatile. Whether it's tough or soft, he plays well.

There's no way, who let Sawamura have more weapons in his hands, his ability to watch the dishes of the guests, not to mention middle school students, even if he searches all over the world, it is absolutely impossible to find the second one.

In the second half of the second game, Akagi attacked.

"Fourth batter, pitcher, Sawamura."

No one is out, no one is on base!

In this situation, Ku Xiaomu's pitcher Oizumi did not flinch and chose to face Sawamura head-on.

Having solved Oda and Yamaguchi and Fengxiang in a row before, it probably made him think that Akagi's line was nothing more than that.

Sawamura happily stood on the strike zone, the bat in his hand raised high and swaying.

Ku Komaki's catcher Iwakura looked at Sawamura's grip and was shocked.

Long stick!

Before the competition, they deliberately studied the information of Akagi, especially the information of Sawamura.

I have a very clear understanding of Sawamura's strength. Sawamura has the ability to hit a home run, and when he was in the final of the Kanto Convention, he also hit a home run with Haruka Nanami's pitch.

Such a beater, holding a long stick, is very open.

He wanted to hit a home run.

With such a judgment, Iwakura immediately gave the pitcher Oizumi a code.

Oizumi nodded slightly and threw the ball into the outside corner.

"Whoosh!"

Oizumi's ball speed is good, and it is enough for 13. In addition to ball speed, ball control is also possible. Especially from the outside corner, the shot is very sharp.

In the face of this ball, Sawamura, who was originally very open, suddenly contracted his movements, which made his whole movement very small, and the bat in his hand was also a little shorter.

"Ping!"

After the adjustment, Sawamura hit the ball directly.

The baseball flew out against the feet of the third baseman, forming a long hit. (Sawamura is a left-hand hitter, and his outside corner corresponds to the third base side of the guarding.) )

With this ball, Sawamura ran to second base non-stop and helped Akagi get the first hit.

"Sawamura, Sawamura !!"

In the stands, the Red Heart Brotherhood, which had grown to a team of 500 people, stood up one by one and applauded Sawamura rhythmically.

It's so handsome!

On the second base, Sawamura carefully glanced at Ku Komaki's catcher.

As far as his own feelings are concerned, personal personality aside, Ku Komaki's catcher Iwakura is still very good.

Arm strength, reflexes, talent, are not bad.

Although he was deceived by Sawamura, Sawamura's little trick, even if he changed to other catchers, it was difficult not to be fooled.

Overall, he's pretty good.

"Such a catcher would not be able to catch the ball of Xiaogu Gu. How wild is that guy's ball? ”

Sawamura's original little pride, because of this comparison, a little lost.

Comparing hearts to hearts, as far as Sawamura's own weapon is now used, if he is replaced by Iwakura as a catcher, he should be able to catch it. Although it takes a piece of training, it needs to be familiarized.

But he should be able to catch it.

You can catch your own ball, but can't you catch Xiao's ball?

The harder it is to catch the ball, the harder it is to play.

"Does that mean that now I am not the opponent of that stinky boy in the valley?"

This conclusion is difficult for Sawamura to accept.

How can it be?

Shaking his head, Sawamura threw this thought out of his mind and concentrated on the game.

The fifth batter was cool, and with a short shot, Sawamura went to third base.

Then the sixth baton Ashin, another short hit, Sawamura forced to score points, and helped Akagi to score the first point.

The aggregate score is 1:0!

When Sawamura first arranged the line, he had skipped such an offensive model. In case he and Feng Xiang have a base, then the batter uses the short play to advance to ensure that the score is scored.

For this reason, Feng Liang and Nakagawa have seriously studied tactical shortfights.

If it weren't for that, with their strength, they wouldn't be ranked fifth and sixth.

Komaki don't look small about them, but if you talk about the strength of the strike, it still has to surpass Feng Liang and Nakagawa, who have just practiced swinging the stick for a year and a half.
