Chapter Seventy-Seven: Confrontation (Part 3)

100% successful batting stance, once on second base, solid tactical execution.

The baseball team of Akagi Middle School was able to reach the top four in the country, and there must be several things that are among the best in the country.

The first one, of course, is the top pitcher in the country!

The second is the best defensive ability in the country when paired with pitchers.

And then there is the last one, Akagi Middle School is one of the best teams in all schools in the country that plays short games with the tactics of stealing bases.

For other teams, especially for the big teams, they are naturally familiar with this set of tactics.

I have to say that although there are many offensive tactics in baseball, short play with base theft is the most basic, and it is also one of the most inexplicable tricks.

As Haoqiang, how could they not learn such a weapon? No?

It's just that this is just one of all the weapons they have mastered, and they need to hone other weapons and master more things besides this weapon. Especially for middle school students, the most important thing for children at this age to learn baseball is to practice batting and pitching, these basic things.

In middle school, the most important thing is to lay a good foundation, which is not only an ordinary middle school, you are going to the youth club, and it is also based on this.

In this case, their use and familiarity with the tactics of short play and base theft have been affected.

Akagi Middle School is different, the Akagi Middle School baseball team, from the day it was founded, Sawamura has been letting the friends be familiar with and hone this set of tactics. This tactic has become their ability to eat, just like passing and receiving the ball.

The direction of the Akagi Middle School baseball team was determined from the beginning. It's a pitcher-centric team!

To use an analogy, it's like playing a soccer game. Sawamura is like that super goalkeeper! There are only two ways for such a team to go further. One is to cooperate with the goalkeeper to hone his own defense. Of course, if you want to win the game, you can't just defend it, so they need a second way.

They need, a sharp knife to fight back!

Defending and counterattacking is the only rule for the survival of weak teams.

If you can't do it yourself, you have to fight with others, and you are looking for death.

Akagi Middle School has been determined from the beginning because of the problems it poses. The way they can play is to defend and counter-attack.

The short fight combined with the theft of the base is the sharp knife that Akagi Middle School counterattacked.

It's just that later, because of the addition of Feng Xiang and Xiao Tian, the overall strength of Akagi Middle School has increased a lot. This also made the style established by Akagi Middle School not so conspicuous at the beginning, but the most threatening offensive weapon of Akagi Middle School was Sawamura's first attack zone, relying on his strong personal strength to blast at a fixed point.

Then cooperate with short hits, steal bases, and score steadily.

Now Sawamura is playing this hand, as soon as he stands in the strike zone, he puts on a short stance, which is a position that Sawamura has been 100% able to hit before.

"It's coming!"

When Chenggong saw such a Sawamura, instead of flinching, the whole person surging with him.

The competition reached the top four in the country, and everyone knew who had some ability.

Narumi Narumiya also knows Sawamura's plans, doesn't he just want to go to second base?

"If you can, you can show it to me!"

"Whoosh!"

Narimiya throws the ball, and the baseball shoots like a sharp arrow above the home plate.

In the strike zone, Sawamura took the bat back in his hand and hit it again.

"Ping!"

The little white ball was hit and flew back backwards at a faster speed than it had come.

"Smack!"

The baseball fell out of bounds on third base and bounced off the ground.

"Out of bounds!"

Zero balls are good, one is bad.

Sawamura's face became cautious.

He was 100% sure of a successful hit, and he just missed!

On the pitcher's mound, Narumiya is like a fox who stole a chicken.

"Hee-hee, even bad balls, swing sticks. Do you really think that your striking posture is invincible in the world? ”

Sawamura put on a short shot, then withdrew the bat, and then hit it again, and he didn't let go of the bad ball.

Narumiya noticed this, and only then did he use a bad ball to seduce Sawamura to swing his bat.

Does Sawamura know that Narumiya used a bad ball? Of course he does.

However, he thought that he should be able to pull the ball back by relying on his own pulling.

As a result, Sawamura naturally miscalculated.

Narumiya's ball was much heavier than he had imagined.

Sawamura is not completely unable to pull, but he can at most pull to the sideline, this position is the front of the third baseman, such a pull, of course, Sawamura will not use, so the first ball can only let the ball fly out of bounds.

"It's really worthy of Cheng Gongming, it's really amazing!"

Sawamura secretly picked a thumbs up for Narumiya Naruto in his heart, and he had to admit that Narumiya Naruto's straight ball was really sharp. Even if Sawamura can hit the ball, there is no guarantee that he will play the ball well.

What is Playing Well?

If a hitter wants to score a hit consistently, it's not enough to just hit the ball. He needs to hit the ball into some gaps, even though the guard is a cross-barring, with the first baseman, pitcher and third baseman standing behind the center, and the shortstop and second baseman. In the center and behind the shortstop and second baseman, there are three outfielders.

But that doesn't mean they're all over the place.

The better the fielder, the wider the range he can defend. But even the most powerful fielder can't completely cover his defense. Since you can't completely cover your own garrison range, it also means that there are loopholes to exploit.

From the batter's point of view, aim the ball over the head of the shortstop or second baseman and hit the ball and the ball will land right in the gap between the two outfielders! This is the route of the long hit, and then if you play the short shot, the first baseman and the pitcher are in the center, although the second baseman is directly in front of them, but if the ball is played well, the speed is good, and it is difficult to handle, there is a chance to go to base.

Of course, if you can aim for a gap like the first baseman and the second baseman, the success rate of the hit will be higher.

However, it is also within the range of the second baseman's defense, and if you want to hit, you have to pass through the second baseman's defense.

Sawamura took the bat back and hit it again, which was a 100% hit. It's not just about hitting the ball, the best thing about Sawamura is that he can hit the ball where he wants.

That's the core reason why he can score 100 percent of the time.

Narumiya's ball, Sawamura can't hit it wherever he wants to hit it as he wants.

The ball is too heavy!

"It's worthy of being a senior in the palace, it's really difficult!"

Sawamura exclaimed, and then his eyes turned murderous.

Since there is no way to pull and beat, then I will fight hard!

"Ping!"

Narumiya's second ball, Sawamura swung the bat and hit the ball, and the ball flew straight to third base.
