Chapter 10: The first home run
The pitches from 11 to 15 were all within Sawamura's previous range, as this was also the range with the most ups and downs in professional baseball.
"Ping!
When the blow is blown, the body is completely stretched, and there is no part of Sawamura that is deliberately forced. The body rotates with the left foot as the core, and then the whole movement is constantly coordinated.
The baseball was hit and flew off in front of everyone's eyes.
This ball flies so fast, so high, so far!
Nagata's players had earthy faces one by one, and they had an ominous premonition in their hearts.
Isn't it?
That guy is just a first grade, can he still hit a home run?
"Smack!"
Unfortunately, the ball didn't make it out in the end.
Landing about five meters in front of the outfield wall, of course, at this distance, Nagata's outfield guard is not there.
Sawamura trotted all the way directly over first, second, and third base and ran back to home plate.
It's not that he's fast, it's just that Nagata's outfielders are too slow to find the ball. By the time the ball came back, it had been half a minute. Even if Sawamura leaves, this time will be enough for him to walk back.
"Home run!"
Although it was only a home run on the field, Sawamura was still happy.
After all, this is the first home run of his life to remember.
It's just that the physical fitness is still not good, and the foundation is not solid enough......
Through this swing, Sawamura is fully aware of his shortcomings. At the end of the day, he's not the kind of guy who is born big. During this time, I have been practicing pitching, and I can't help but be a little slack about swinging the bat.
In addition to experience, the body's memory is also very important. And this thing is very similar to martial arts, if you don't practice for three days, your hands and feet are slow.
If he wants to stay in good shape, Sawamura will have to step up his swing practice.
In this game, Sawamura once again finished shooting. Zero hits, zero points conceded.
Win!
Actually won?
After the game, the most surprised person was not the people from Nagata Middle School, but Akagi's own friends.
They actually won!
"Oh!"
Cangyue jumped up excitedly, she was very happy. Sure enough, that kid from Sawamura is not just a brag. They can really win, and they win so beautifully.
Let's call it beautiful, after all, the team didn't lose points anyway!
In the face of Sawamura's 120, approaching 125 fast balls, Nagata's hitter was completely powerless.
With 11 ball speed as the practice object, 12 or something, it's an unknown territory at all, okay?
When they first came to Sawamura to practice, they also wanted to use Sawamura's pitching as a free practice object in order to get used to this kind of ball speed. After all, not every middle school can afford to practice with a pitching machine.
After seven rounds of bloody battles, Akagi finally defeated Nagata Junior High School 1:0.
In seven innings, Sawamura scored nineteen strikeouts, and in the entire pitching process, there was no one four bad.
After they left, Nagata's two competitors whispered.
"That guy, when he just pitched, didn't use all his strength, right?"
"Probably not, it looks like it's easy, and the ball path is not very tricky......"
The two of them looked at each other, and their hearts were cold. Only now did they discover a very terrifying thing, that is, in the twenty-one duels, Sawamura didn't seem to have thrown a bad ball, and he completely relied on his own ball speed to fight.
"Are we too vegetable, or are we ......"
The friends of the Akagi baseball team who returned to school were still excited and couldn't help themselves. Most of them had little baseball experience and didn't expect to win the second game.
Of course, Sawamura also has a lot of his own thoughts about this, but he doesn't want to interrupt his friends' excitement at this time.
Let them be happy for a while, and then we will talk about it later.
Now, simply enjoy the victory.
In his previous life, as a professional player, Sawamura's time seemed to be relatively rushed, either playing or training, and speaking of which, he hadn't calmed down for a long time and simply celebrated the victory.
……
"Did you hear that the baseball team seems to have won the practice game?"
In the second-grade classroom of Akagi Middle School, several students gathered together to eagerly discuss the big news in the school.
Although the baseball team was proposed by Sawamura, most of the players are first-year students. But that doesn't mean that no one plays baseball in the senior grades.
According to legend, there was a baseball club in Akagi before.
Among the students in front of me, two of them used to be members of the club, and then the seniors graduated, and the baseball club that was popular for a while was no longer active.
But that doesn't mean the baseball club is disbanded. Until now, Oda and Feng Xiang are still members of the club.
Feng Xiang is even the president of the club.
"These little guys can really toss."
Oda pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with a grin.
After speaking, he also glanced at Feng Xiang deliberately.
I don't know what Feng Xiang thinks?
Xiao Tian and Feng Xiang were originally friends of the Young Sticks, and later entered middle school, so they naturally left the Young Sticks. Entering Akagi, they didn't completely put down baseball, and formed a six-member club with their former seniors.
Oda remembered that Feng Xiang also said that he would form a baseball team.
Later, the seniors graduated. There were only the two of them left in the fun party, and the matter was over.
Now, the primary school brother who is one age younger than himself has established a baseball club, I don't know what Feng Xiang will think in his heart?
"Oda, speaking of which, you are the veteran and captain of the baseball team, why did you let that little ghost named Sawamura come out?"
Oda smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer.
Feng Xiang closed the book in front of him and said coldly: "Sawamura, he has never entered our club. The baseball club and the club are two clubs at all. ”
Feng Xiang noticed Sawamura earlier than the others, and just as he was about to put up a new advertisement, he saw Sawamura holding a sign swaggering to recruit new members.
For this reason, Feng Xiang also asked the principal.
Why didn't Sawamura join the club and form a baseball team?
"Ah, haven't you always been under-staffed? It's rare for Sawamura-san to be so enthusiastic, so I approved it. Why don't you discuss it and merge it. ”
The headmaster explained kindly.
In this way, the baseball team and the club became two clubs.
Sawamura really doesn't know about this matter. He was already in the second grade when he called on his peers to form a baseball team in his last life. At that time, Feng Xiang and Xiao Tian were already facing graduation, so naturally they would not follow suit.
But now it's different, they're all ambitious baseball enthusiasts, looking forward to forming a baseball team.
In other words, the little flame of baseball love in their hearts is still burning.
