Chapter 139: A Wonderful Misunderstanding! (Ask for subscription)
Koshien, in the 1/4 finals, Seido High School played in the game of Xinglong High School, and it was in the first half of the seventh game.
The situation is two outs, and no one is on base.
The batter was Haruka Nanami, who had hit a home run before.
When Nanami Yao stood in the strike zone, his mind kept thinking about what Feng Xiang Long Yi had told him.
"If you see that the opponent is throwing a straight ball, then aim for the two balls above the straight ball and swing the bat."
Although Superintendent Feng Xiang is not as cunning as the old man, the baseball level he should have is still good.
Haruka Nanami had no doubts about the information he had detected.
Then aim for the two balls above the straight ball!
In the position of the catcher, Chris saw Nanami Haruka's stance waiting for the blow, and almost guessed his thoughts.
He should be aiming for Xiao's straight ball to hit!
If the partner is different, Chris will definitely be able to come up with a lot of different ways to solve Nanami Haruka at this time.
As for whether he can successfully solve it in the face of Nanami Haruka, Chris does not dare to guarantee it.
But as long as these methods are used, they will firmly occupy the initiative, that is certain.
It's just a pity that his partner is Xiaogu Xiao.
Chris is also a clever woman, and it is difficult to cook without rice.
No matter how many plans he has in his heart, as long as his partner is Xiaogu Xiao, all his plans are meaningless.
If you want to rely on the ball to solve the opponent, the pitcher can at least throw the ball where the catcher asks, and that's the foundation.
And the problem of Gu Xiao is that the foundation is insufficient.
In fact, in the past six months, Gu Xiao has made great progress, and being able to accurately throw his extremely sharp straight ball into the good ball belt, everyone in Qingdao High School already feels very amazing.
So what kind of level has Gu Xiao's ball control reached now?
Now, if he were to throw 10 balls, he would be able to make almost seven of the good balls.
That's how well he has the ball right now.
With such ball control, the strength that the catcher can play is very limited. A pitcher can't even guarantee that he will throw the ball into a good belt, so what kind of ball control is there to talk about? What to talk about with the ball?
It's all~
But even so, six or seven out of ten balls can be thrown into a good ball belt, which has already stunned some friends of Qingdao High School.
Not to mention the newly enrolled Xiaogu Xiao, before participating in Koshien, the opponent could still force Xiaogu to cast four bad. It's not hard to see how well he had the ball at the time!
At that time, out of ten goals, he couldn't even guarantee that five of his goals would be in the belt.
Even if Chris is replaced as his partner, there is no too good trick. can only let him play freely, otherwise even if he is matched with the ball, he will not be able to throw it.
Under the fear, it will weaken the ball power of Gu Xiao himself.
The best way to partner with him is to be a good receiving machine.
"Come on! Trust your own pitch and pitch the ball into my glove! ”
Chris spread his gloves and tried to play a supporting role.
On the pitcher's mound, Xiao Gu still looked expressionless, and his performance was very suitable for being a pitcher.
For fighters, expressionless opponents always make people more fearful.
"It's quite a set!"
Haruka Nanami also noticed this, and he muttered in great admiration.
Then a pair of eyes were firmly locked on the pitcher's mound of Akira Shibuyani.
It's always exciting to play against a strong opponent. Nanami Haruka has this feeling now, he feels danger from Tsukiya Xiao's body.
This is an opponent that deserves to be treated with all his might.
The bat in his hand was raised high, and Nanami Haruka looked at Akira with full attention, and then he saw Akira Tsukiya pull out the posture and throw the ball.
In this process, Tsugu Xiao was not disturbed by any outside world, and his eyes were extremely cold.
The steps are very large, and it seems that he has lengthened the whole process of accumulating energy, no wonder Xiao, who is not burly, can throw the ball so quickly.
Through the duel, Nanami Haruka understands why Akira Shibuyani was able to throw the ball so fast.
"It's kind of interesting."
Muttering quietly, Nanami Haruka unceremoniously waved his stick at the flying ball.
Akira Tsukiya's ball speed is fast!
Before Haruka Nanami struck, he had thrown a total of six balls.
The first ball flew out of the high speed of 150 kilometers.
151 km!
153 km!
150 km!
151 km!
153 km!
In the last ball, it soared out of 154.5 kilometers of high speed.
"Descending Valley!"
"Monster!"
Every ball caused the audience to scream again and again, and it was in such an atmosphere that Nanami Haruka faced off against Xiao.
The ball traveled at a speed of up to 150 kilometers, and the baseball was thrown from the pitcher's hand to the catcher's glove, which did not take even half a second in total.
In the eyes of ordinary people, half a second is a blink of an eye. It's extremely difficult to swing the stick with precision.
But Haruka Nanami is different, he has the most top-of-the-line dynamic vision. It is precisely for this reason that his blows surpassed those of Matsumoto and Fengxiang.
It has become the fourth stick of Xinglong High School!
In the world in his eyes, the ball that Gu Xiao throws is very slow.
He could even see the direction of the baseball's rotation.
This spin is a straight ball!
Calculating the way of the ball, Nanami Haruka decisively swung the bat.
As Superintendent Feng Xiang said before, he aimed at the two balls above the straight ball.
"Ping!"
Haruka Nanami's swing is very clean and neat.
It's just that the bat only grabs the top of the baseball, and after the white ball is hit out, it bounces directly to the ground.
In the strike zone, Haruka Nanami is very embarrassed.
Sure enough, the coaches are all lies. There was no need to aim for the two balls above the straight ball, and if he played normally, although it would be difficult to hit such a heavy ball with a home run, it would be no problem to hit a hit.
Now I can only regret it.
Here I want to explain that Feng Xiang's suggestion is not wrong, and Nanami Haruka's feeling is not wrong.
It's just that there is a very wonderful little misunderstanding at the very end.
Supervisor Fengxiang's advice only applies to ordinary beaters, not to Haruka Nanami.
The average hitter does not have top-level dynamic vision, so he naturally cannot distinguish the rise of the valley Xiaoqiu.
But Haruka Nanami can do it!
He can tell the ball to float up, so if he continues to aim at the two balls above the straight ball, the result will naturally be more sad.
"Smack!"
After receiving the ball, the shortstop Kuramochi passed to first base and blocked Haruka Nanami out of the game.
Three outs, offense and defense exchange!
In the second half of the seventh inning, Qingdao High School attacked.
Facing Haruka Nanami, whose pitch count has soared to the limit, the hitters of Seido High School did not let go of the opportunity.
Chris and Hakushu teamed up and entangled Nanami Haruka for fifteen goals!
Haruka Nanami's pitches exceeded the triple digits.
And just like that, the game came to the eighth inning.
