Chapter 3: Three Up and Three Down (The Third Subscription Requests)

Two outs, no one on base.

"The third stick, catcher, Yamanaka-san."

After two strikeouts in a row, it was Yokozuna's turn to hit the fearsome core line.

Yamanaka Kanosuke, Yokozuna's catcher, is also known as the coach on the field by his teammates, and is known for his thoughtfulness. It is a well-deserved No. 1 catcher in Kanagawa!

As he stepped into the strike zone, his mind kept recalling the scene of his teammates being dealt with.

"Nishimura can swing the ball so much! And the second stick made the exact same mistake as him......"

One person is a coincidence, and two people in a row swing a baton are twenty centimeters smaller than the baseball, which cannot be explained by coincidence. This pitcher must have mastered the nirvana that we didn't know before.

Is it a match? Or is it a matter of the pitchers themselves pitching.

Yamanaka Kanosuke looked intently at Sawamura on the pitcher's hill, and then suddenly had a very strange feeling in his heart.

Isn't it a little strange about the pitcher's position? Although the left pitcher position is biased towards first base to a certain extent. But you're too biased, aren't you?

He didn't think it at first, but when Yamaguchi came back to his senses, he realized that Sawamura's two feet were almost on the edge of the pitcher's mound near the first base.

I see!

The corners of Yamanaka's mouth curled, and he had to admit that Sawamura was really a genius, and he found such a small loophole.

But how long can this little trick last?

Let's wait and see!

The bat in his hand was raised high, and on the first ball, Yamaguchi put on a posture to swing the bat directly.

On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura's eyes never left the hitter, and when he saw that the opponent wanted to swing the bat, he made a decisive throw.

"Whoosh!"

The small white ball, like a white lightning bolt, flew out of Sawamura's hand.

In the strike zone, Yamanaka was in a striking position, but he didn't swing his bat, and his eyes were staring at the flying baseball without blinking.

Because Sawamura is standing on the side of first base, plus he is a left pitcher. So, when he threw this ball, the angle looked very big.

From the player's point of view, the ball looks like a standard inside corner, and even looks a bit like an inside corner with a touchline.

"Smack!"

Yamanaka sent the ball to Feng Xiang's gloves, and couldn't help but give Sawamura thirty-two likes in his heart.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, Yamanaka wouldn't have believed that someone among the middle school students could throw such a ball. The huge right angle difference makes the ordinary straight ball become a magic ball-like existence.

If the hitter swings the baton based on the trajectory of the ball that he sees with his own eyes, it is normal for errors to occur!

Because what you see with your eyes is not necessarily true. The reason why left-handed pitchers are popular is that pitchers like them have an angle advantage against right-hand hitters. And Sawamura maximized this advantage.

Of course, this is not something that everyone can do. What position the pitcher stands on and what pitcher throws is gradually fixed as the pitcher accumulates practice. Once their stance or posture changes, it is generally difficult for them to have problems with the ball.

Like Sawamura, after a huge change in position, the ball control is not affected in the slightest, and it can only be attributed to talent!

Coach Takeda, it is precisely because he has long discovered this that he will say that Sawamura is a real genius.

Pitcher mound.

Seeing that the first ball in the mountain did not swing the bat, Sawamura knew that he should have been seen through when he switched positions to throw the ball.

"It's really scary to be a little kid now."

complained in his heart, but Sawamura didn't take it to heart. Don't underestimate baseball in this country, despite its young age, its physical fitness has not grown to its peak. But some children are already very good at playing. After all, playing is not all about physical fitness, sometimes it depends on the mind.

These little ghosts, don't look small, play with their hearts, and they are enough for adults to drink a pot.

"However, my pitching is not as simple as you think."

Muttering in his heart, Sawamura threw his second ball.

Yamanaka, who had already fallen behind with a good ball, naturally would not be indifferent to this ball, and he waved his bat decisively.

He deliberately adjusted his swinging posture, and this ball was really touched by him.

"Ping!"

The white ball is hit and bounces straight out of bounds.

"Out of bounds!"

Although Yamanaka has found a trick to swing his stick, this misalignment of vision is not so easy to adjust, and he still needs to adapt.

It's just a pity that Sawamura didn't give him a chance to adapt, and without any stagnation, Sawamura's third goal came.

"Whoosh!"

The small white ball flew straight towards the lower body in the mountain.

This is, to the point!

Once hit, Yamanaka can also go to work in the palace.

Almost subconsciously, without thinking through the brain, Yamanaka's ass flickered, avoiding the direction where the baseball was flying.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

"Strikeout!!

Nine goals in a row, three strikeouts. Sawamura didn't waste a single goal, and let Yokozuna's line go up and down three times.

At this scene, all the fans at the scene had dry mouths.

Strong! Nima is too strong!

The pitcher single-handedly suppressed the national overlord Yokozuna, without any power to fight back.

This scene, just thinking about it is extremely intoxicating.

The brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood, under the leadership of the two presidents, Dalin and Kobayashi, have completely fallen into madness.

That's it, that's it!

Their emotions are beyond words. At this time, no language is too poor to express their excitement.

But it feels like that's what it should be, or that's how Sawamura should be.

In addition to Akagi's die-hard supporters, many neutral viewers were also attracted by Sawamura's tough performance.

"Who is this kid? That's too strong, isn't it? ”

"Sawamura, Sawamura Eijun. Among the middle school all-star players of "Baseball Boy", the only player with a comprehensive value of more than 12 kings. 'Uncrowned Heavenly King' Eijun Sawamura. ”

"That 'Baseball Boy' really has a vision."

"Why is such a pitcher buried until now?"

"That's why the Kanto Conference is interesting."

"Originally, I thought Yokozuna would win, but now it seems that this is not the case at all."

In the corner of the stands.

The contestants of Tianlong Temple, one by one, were like frosted eggplants, bowing their heads and not speaking.

I really didn't expect that Sawamura would still have such a hand.

"In the match against Daihoku and Nagano Metropolitan Cities, Akagi won by a landslide!"

The assistant coach of Tianlong Temple couldn't help but sigh.

The overwhelming victory means that no one knows whether Akagi has reservations.

"That's why this investigation is particularly meaningful."

The old fox Yamano Hiromitsu glanced at his proud disciple Nanami Haruka, and couldn't help but feel sorry for Nanami Haruka.

Since there is Nanami, why do you need to have a Sawamura?
