All the tactics of the Akagi Middle School baseball team were arranged by Sawamura Eijun.

At that time, except for Sawamura Eijun, there was no baseball expert in the team. Although Feng Xiang and Xiao Tian came out of the regular youth base, they are not the kind of players who can lead a team.

Sawamura is the organizer, founder, captain, and acting coach of the team......

He almost taught his little friend to play baseball.

When the friends still knew little about baseball, Sawamura Eijun dragged them to the field to participate in the test of actual combat.

In that case, it would be impossible for the Akagi High School baseball team to play without using some means.

This kind of thing can't be done with Sawamura Rongchun's personality.

So the only strategy he could think of was a tactic of stealing corners.

Anyway, Sawamura Eijun has also been in professional baseball for more than ten years, and he has also received orthodox training in high school.

He knows very well how to use tactics properly.

What are the tactics?

To put it bluntly, it's nothing more than a way to get your team to win.

So how can you improve your team's probability of winning?

This is complicated and complicated, but it is actually quite simple to say simple.

It is nothing more than to promote your own strengths and avoid your own shortcomings. To sum it up in four words is to promote strengths and avoid weaknesses.

What were the strengths of the Akagi Junior High School baseball team at that time?

The biggest strength is, of course, Sawamura's ace pitcher.

So all the tactics of the Akagi Middle School baseball team revolve around Sawamura.

Building a team with pitchers as the core is the largest strategic phalanx of the Akagi Middle School baseball team.

In this case, the first thing the players need to learn is not the offensive skills at all, but how to defend.

It is very difficult for a team's defense to be honed, and it is definitely not something that can be completed overnight.

At that time, the friends of the baseball team of Akagi Middle School, how long did they contact baseball? Sawamura forced them onto the court.

They don't know much about baseball, let alone hone a full-fledged defense.

What should I do in this case?

Sawamura can only work on his own, and he uses his precise ball control to get the hitter to hit the ball in the direction he wants the hitter to hit.

To put it simply, it's the area that the pitcher is responsible for, the area where the first baseman is responsible, and the area where the catcher is responsible.

Only those players in these three positions are experienced and can take on big responsibilities.

The lineup that Sawamura had in mind at the time was based on this.

More lineup additions in the later stage are also based on this, adding other things.

This iron triangle garrison, Akagi Middle School continued for a long time, until Feng Xiang and Xiao Tian graduated.

The Iron Triangle garrison at that time no longer exists.

As a result, in the autumn, just after they won the national championship, they were defeated by Nagano Metropolitan High School.

It wasn't until a year later that the team formed a new triangle and the Akagi High School baseball team was able to win the national championship again.

It can be said that Sawamura Eijun was able to lead the friends of the Akagi Middle School baseball team to kill all sides and win the throne of the national hegemon.

This garrison formation is a great achievement.

After all, it was something that Sawamura Eijun racked his brains to think about for months to come up with, and it was more than enough to deal with a group of middle school kids.

By the time I got to high school, this lineup naturally couldn't be used anymore.

Especially for the big universities, their guards in all positions are very strong, and there is no need to adopt such an approach.

As time passed, Sawamura Eijun gradually forgot about this garrison system.

For Sawamura Eijun, who is aiming for the major leagues, it is just a passerby in his life, and it is not worth nostalgia.

In the days to come, he won't need this lineup.

I didn't expect to see this set of guard formations again on the Koshien field, and it was changed and strengthened.

Before communicating with everyone,Sawamura Rong Chunzai carefully looked at the people in the mountain guard school park.。

There was a doubt in his mind.

Anyone who is familiar with the baseball team at Akagi High School knows that they have a very good defense system. But it was really possible to rehearse this set of tactics and improve on it.

It's impossible to just watch the game footage.

Because it involves pitcher pitching selection, as well as adjustments to the guarding.

If you are not an insider of the Akagi Middle School baseball team, you probably don't know about this system.

Otherwise, if this system is so easy to imitate, so easy to see through.

There is no way for him to rely on this system to dominate the world in middle school.

The guys in the middle school soft ball league, though they lack real talent. But many of them are very skillful in their supervision.

What can be seen through at a glance is absolutely impossible to hide from their eyes.

So Sawamura Eijun is very sure that the other party must have acquaintances in the baseball team of Akagi Middle School.

Who is it?

Brother Godfoot? Kento Yamazaki?

Yamazaki!

This guy won't have anything to do with Big Yamazaki and Little Yamazaki, right?

Yuzukuzawa Mura Rongchun does not guess so.

It's just that Yamazaki is a big surname, and there are many people with this surname nationwide.

He wasn't sure.

I can only find a chance to ask Yamazaki about them later.

Shaking his head and putting these speculations aside, Sawamura Eisuki concentrated on explaining the tactics used by the other party to his friends.

"First of all, the formation guarded by the opponent is called the triangle formation! The pitcher's choice of ball has a lot to do with the adjustment of the defense. ”

When Sawamura Eijun put forward this point, the first feeling of the surrounding friends was disbelief.

If it was really such an obvious move, with Watanabe's ability to observe, he should have observed it a long time ago.

How could it be possible to wait until Sawamura Eisumi said?

"It's not that complicated, the choice of garrison is actually very simple. They should have a total of 6 or 7 lineup changes. The rotation of each lineup is centered on the triangle. One of the most common triangles is the catcher, the area between the pitcher and the first baseman. It's called the Golden Triangle! Next up is the formation of pitchers, third basemen, catchers, and this is called the Silver Triangle. There is also the copper triangle and the iron triangle in the back! It's all a triangular formation with the pitcher as the core, followed by the shortstop and second baseman! ”

"That's the most basic strategy, right?"

Miyuki frowned!

Three adjacent locations form a guarded area, which should be the most basic strategy on a baseball field.

How did it come out of Sawamura Eijun's mouth and become a routine?

That's what any team does!

"Of course it's not that simple!"

Sawamura kept his palms at the pitcher's catcher position and then made a compression with the first baseman.

"Here's where this lineup is really powerful!"

Look at Sawamura after compressing the gesture.

Miyuki's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

What did he vaguely understand?

Then, exactly as he had guessed, Sawamura said the same thing.

"There's nothing wrong with the lineup itself, it's with the pitchers. He uses precise ball control and calculations to get the hitter to hit the ball in the area he wants the hitter to hit. In other words, from the moment a pitcher throws the ball, their guard is already adjusted! It's a pitcher-centric defense unit, and I'm calling it the Triangle Defense! ”

Triangle defense!

As soon as Sawamura Rongjun's words came out, the friends all nodded with deep sympathy.

Not to mention that the name is really quite vivid, it perfectly interprets the characteristics of this set of tactics.

"You know a lot!"

Kuramochi looked at Sawamura Eijun suspiciously.

Although Sawamura Eijun is very mature, he is also a little clever when he usually plays. But this is the first time that there has been such a global co-ordination.

It's not like the first time you see the other side guarding.

I have to say that Kuramori's intuition is still very sharp.

Sawamura scratched his scalp in embarrassment.

He really didn't know how to answer.

"It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat, it's a good cat if you catch mice. Regardless of how you came up with it, talk about your strategy. ”

Superintendent Kataoka is more pragmatic.

As soon as Sawamura Eijun spoke, he pondered again.

It seems like that's really the case.

What Sawamura Eijun said should be not wrong at all, this is the other party's strategic policy.

Without Sawamura's decryption, they really can't see it.

Sawamura first nodded at Superintendent Kataoka, and then said his countermeasures.

"Actually, it's not that difficult to attack the other party. Or should it be said that if you want to attack the other party, there are actually rules to follow. ”

As he spoke, Sawamura Eissumi put his finger on the pitcher's position.

"First of all, we can guess the general position of the pitcher's pitch based on the compression adjustment of the guard."

When Sawamura Eijun entered that mysterious state before, he had actually faintly seen through this.

It was according to the adjustment of the guard that he realized that the opponent wanted to use an inside corner kick to duel.

He didn't think about it specifically.

But he still saw through it at a glance.

Now that he understands the other party's tactics, Sawamura Eisan has a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

He has found a very clear pattern.

"Second, if we choose to hit the ball hard, there should be a good chance that the ball will land in a trap that the opponent has designed. It's like deliberately putting a hook and bait, and we're the hooked fish. ”

"How can you eat the bait and return the hook to the other party? It's very simple, just separate the bait from the hook. My opinion is that no matter what method you use, just hit the ball to a position where they don't have heavy defense, and it's OK. ”

This is Sawamura's countermeasure.

Superintendent Kataoka nodded affirmatively.

"You all understand that, right?"

"Understood!"

"That's good, let's play!"

Seido High School's strategy is like this, and the supervisor generally does not force the players to do something.

Instead, it will let the players think and judge for themselves.

This is the style that Seido High School has always adhered to.
