In the end, Kominato Haruichi was unable to touch the ball.
Sawamura, who stood in the strike zone, felt that his blood was rolling all over his body.
Hongo's growth was far beyond his imagination.
Although he always knew that Hongo Masamune was a real monster. But he still didn't expect that in just half a year, Hongo would grow so much.
Kuramochi was struck three times, which is not very unusual in Sawamura's eyes.
Kurachi's striking strength, although it has grown a lot during this time, is not outstanding as a whole.
Especially compared with the top players in the country, his gap is not half a star.
When he made up his mind that he didn't have to play short. Being struck by a strikeout is one of the most likely scenarios.
But Kominato Haru is different.
His sense of the ball is one of the best in the entire Seongdo High School baseball team.
Simply speaking in this aspect, Sawamura can't compare to him.
With such a good sense of ball, it's too late to swing the bat? In the end, I didn't even touch a baseball.
It doesn't make sense to think about it.
Keeping this question, Sawamura Eisuki stood in the strike zone.
Troll Otomaki High School's casting partner, while observing him.
He's also observing Hongo.
He tried to find some patterns from Hongo's body.
"Whoosh!"
Without letting Sawamura Eijun wait, the white ball flew over.
So fast!
The speed shown on the electronic display is 152 km/h, but when viewed from the strike zone, the ball speed is even more terrifying.
This kind of living pitching is the same as the kind of ball that is thrown with a pitching machine.
It's not at all.
This kind of ball, which gives people a stronger feeling.
It's no wonder that this guy was able to mix well in the big leagues in his previous life.
His style is really perfect for surviving in the big leagues.
Caucasians and blacks are inherently superior to yellows in terms of physique.
In the major leagues, whites and blacks are especially fond of crushing opponents with ball speed.
So their pitchers, the vast majority of them are centered on straight balls. On top of this, there are various variations of the ball to disrupt the player.
For this kind of pitcher, the straight ball is the lifeline.
Masamune Hongo is very talented, and his straight ball will definitely not be weaker than those white and black pitchers.
Coupled with the sharp knuckle and slide, the standard of ball control is very high.
Even if it is the current Hongxiang, dragged to the professional baseball field, he is an outstanding pitcher.
"The level of Hongo players is far beyond that of ordinary high school students."
It's not just Eijun Sawamura who thinks so, but Fujio, a senior reporter for Baseball Kingdom magazine, thinks so too.
"Good shot!"
"Bad Ball !!"
The opponent is Sawamura Eijun, and Hongo's pitching momentum is very strong.
Tricky corner pitches are used one after another.
With his terrifying speed, the ball was constantly thrown into the corners.
In this case, it will be difficult for him to play these balls well.
Soon he was chased by two good balls.
Two good balls and two bad.
On the fifth pitch after that, Hongo threw a ball that was wide of the center.
When I saw this ball, I was most surprised by Renji.
The glasses on the bridge of his nose almost fell off.
will be beaten out!
No one knows Sawamura's strength better than the opponent of Seido High School.
Against Sawamura Eijun, once the pitch is good, it is very dangerous.
It's good to come!
At this time, Sawamura Eijun didn't have time to take into account Renji's feelings. He looked at the baseball flying by, and a flash of brilliance flashed in his eyes.
In such a position, it should refer to the fork ball.
Although the change ball is not easy to play, but the change ball in this position, Sawamura is confident.
He put his bat up and knocked it out in almost a golf position.
"Ping!"
The white ball did not sink, Sawamura Eisan guessed wrong, it was not a finger fork ball, but a straight ball.
The moment the bat collided with the baseball, Sawamura's two palms were almost numb.
He barely managed to hold the bat in his hand.
After the white ball was touched, it rolled out very weakly and landed in front of the pitcher.
"Smack!"
Hongo picked up the ball almost effortlessly.
Then the ball was sent to first base.
"Smack!"
"Out!!"
Three outs, offense and defense exchanged.
Two strikeouts and one block.
For Masamune Hongo, his start was perfect.
He perfectly suppressed the top three batters of Qingdao High School, making them three up and three down.
For Qingdao High School, the situation is not so rosy.
They didn't get off to a good start.
Especially after the start of the second half of the first game, this kind of unhappiness seems to make matters worse.
In the second half of the first inning, the troll Otoenmaki High School attacked.
As soon as the game began, there was a lot of discussion in the audience.
The opponent is the troll Otoenmaki High School, but Seido High School is very unimpressed.
The starting pitcher they sent on the field was not the ace Sawamura, but Akira Shibuyani.
Although it is also very enjoyable to watch two super pitchers with a ball speed of more than 150 kilometers racing each other.
But Sawamura Eijun, who is the trump card, did not appear, which means that Seido High School did not use all his strength.
The opponent is a troll, and he can still be so calm.
"It's worthy of King Qingdao High School!"
"Didn't you hear their slogans before, but they are aiming for the throne of the national hegemon."
"The vision is different!"
In the eyes of many viewers, it is not without reason that Qingdao High School will do this.
The biggest possibility is nothing more than considering the finals and not wanting Sawamura Esumi to shoot too many balls.
Give the first position to Akira Tsukitani, and Sawamura can finish it last.
"Superintendent Kataoka is really confident!"
Owada Akiko said to herself.
Fujifu, who was next to him, frowned, kept tapping the notebook in his hand with the pen in his hand.
Make a snapping sound.
"That's not right!"
He was very keenly aware of the discordant factor.
Even if Kataoka is bold, he should send Sawamura Eijun to play first.
After the team has gained the advantage, it is enough to replace Sawamura in the outfield.
In fact, most of the more fierce competitions in the past, Qingdao High School did this.
Now there is no reason to do the opposite.
You know, Koshien is a knockout round. Once you lose the semifinals, Seido High School will have nowhere to go even if you want to cry.
At the same time, the rest area of the troll Otoenmaki High School.
Nitta Superintendent looked coldly at Tsukiya Xiao on the pitcher's hill and muttered.
"Sawamura, are you hurt?"
