Chapter 5: A blockbuster
The bat in Sawamura's hand passed by the flying baseball, and no one touched the other, and the baseball fell straight into the gloves of the catcher of Shilun Middle School.
"Good shot!"
"Hehe, I'm sorry, because I haven't swung my stick for too long, and my body is rusty."
Sawamura's face was not red and he was panting, and from the expression on his face, there was no embarrassment in sight.
At this time, Shi Lun's pitcher Miki was also annoyed. He used to regard Sawamura as a very strong opponent, but he didn't expect that the other party was just an embroidered pillow with an empty appearance.
With this encounter, Miki was more relaxed in pitching.
"Good shot!"
"Good shot!"
"Good shot, strikeout."
Three good shots in a row, Sawamura was knocked out with a strikeout.
"There is an old Chinese saying that failure is success for his mother, and we found his mother first!"
The blow was struck by three strikes, and when Sawamura returned to the Akagi rest area, he said unashamedly. I don't want him to say anything, and immediately ushered in the ridicule of Akagi's friends.
"Since it's a trump card, you can take out the trump card."
"It's a shame."
"The captain is so virtuous, what hope do we have?"
……
The friends were concentrating on complaining about Zecun, which was very magical, and their original nervous mood unconsciously relaxed.
The game continues.
"Good ball, good ball, good ball, strikeout!
Akagi's friends, after all, the time to contact baseball is still very short. Faced with a pitch speed of 110 kilometers, it was very difficult to deal with.
After Sawamura, two more friends were striked. Three outs, the two sides exchanged offense and defense.
At this time, the children of Shilun's Second Army, whose morale was high, were about to fly.
Akagi, it's really a fish belly team, and it's okay to be garbage!
However, it's good to meet such an opponent in the first game. At least they can go through this game and play with confidence. Akagi, which is a fish belly, is worth it to them.
"Rush!"
"Hit boldly, crush the pitcher."
Due to the good performance of pitcher Miki, the friends of Shilun Middle School also looked very imposing when they cheered.
They wanted a big victory to commemorate the first battle after the establishment of the Second Army of Shilun.
"It's a bit weird."
Coach Shi Lun, who made a cameo appearance as the referee of home plate, always felt that something was wrong there. But if you really want him to say that there is a problem there, he can't say it.
It's weird!
In the second half of the first game, Shilun Middle School attacked.
At this time, Sawamura stood on the pitcher hill, and his partner was naturally Yamaguchi.
On the pitcher's hill, Sawamura was not affected by his previous strikeouts. On the contrary, he was full of energy......
Finally, finally, it's up to this pitcher's mound again.
And it's still a race!
"Whew~"
With a sigh of relief, Sawamura suddenly shouted to the friends in charge of the guard behind him: "I will keep letting them fight out, and the guard behind me will leave it to everyone!" ”
Hearing Sawamura's words, Akagi's little friends changed their faces one by one.
The founder of the team, the captain, asked them so solemnly and trusted them so much!
Inexplicably, the friends feel that their blood is boiling, as a man, how can they live up to their brothers' expectations?
"Leave it to us."
"Let them fight, we'll stop it."
Although his calves were still spinning, and although he was still afraid of baseball, Akagi's friends still firmly shouted words of support for Sawamura.
In the position of the home plate referee, Shi Lun's coach finally understood that something was wrong.
Akagi, who was just nervous to death and was about to collapse, is now magically relaxed, and one by one is still terrifying.
He glanced thoughtfully at the boy on the pitcher's mound, and his heart was full of surprise.
This pitcher, named Sawamura, was deliberate and deliberately made a fool of himself, the purpose of which was to let everyone relax and relieve pressure......
Under the watchful eye, Sawamura's first shot was shot.
"Whoosh!"
The baseball flew out of Sawamura's hand like a laser light.
So fast!
Shi Lun's hitter looked at the baseball in front of him in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight, with a loveless expression.
They also knew a little bit about their opponents before.
Akagi is a newly established grass platform team, and their players, like most of the people in Shilun's Second Army, are first-year freshmen who have just entered the school.
This Sawamura, also a first-year student at Akagi Middle School, was just twelve years old.
But how could his ball be so fast?
"Smack!"
The baseball smashed into the glove with a thrilling sound.
This voice was heavy in the hearts of the friends of Shilun Middle School.
It's not just the speed of the ball, it's also scary.
With their eyes, they can't accurately judge the actual ball speed of Sawamura.
Coach Shi Lun, who can be the referee, is different, he can judge the speed of Sawamura's ball, and he doesn't dare to say 100%, but he is still 890% sure.
Sawamura's pitching speed is at least 120 kilometers!
For a freshman who has just entered middle school, this is not good, it is simply amazing!
Twelve to fourteen is the fastest stage of physical development for boys, and there is a big difference in physical fitness between first- and third-year middle school players, as well as strength.
Although the ball speed of 12 is not very fast in middle school, it is definitely above the average level.
Most of this is said to be in the third grade, and the first grade has such a pitching level, and Shi Lun's coach has never even heard of it before.
You know, two months ago, Sawamura was a freshly graduated elementary school student.
Shi Lun's coach suddenly had a peculiar feeling that the future of this young man in front of him is absolutely limitless!
"Good ball, good ball, good ball, strikeout!"
"Good ball, good ball, good ball, strikeout!"
"Strikeout!!
Shi Lun's so-called Second Army was just formed because there were too many freshmen joining and a team could not be recruited. Their own level is a little stronger than that of Akagi's friends, but their strength is limited.
Although after Sawamura was reborn, he has been concentrating on honing his ball speed and ball power. For this reason, he even temporarily sealed his pitching posture and the original natural change of the ball.
Without the experience of being reborn, Sawamura may not yet be able to understand the true use of straight balls and ball speed.
But with such an experience, it is different, no matter what, he will not take the previous detour again.
What is ball speed?
If you really want to find a word to describe it, all Sawamura can think of is chakra, internal force, domineering, and telekinesis......
In short, without it, it is difficult for you to become the best. (Of course, it's hard and not absolute, at least there are alternative pitchers like butterfly balls.) )
But once you have it, it's different, it's like a super master of internal strength, and it can hurt people if you touch flowers and leaves.
Even if it is an ordinary change ball, with absolute ball speed, it can exert amazing power.
In his previous life, Sawamura had reached the apex of the change ball, and he was also very complacent, believing that he was only one step away from a legendary superstar. But when he arrived in the major leagues, he found that for those monsters who swung the stick with all their might, the sharp changes in pitching were not so useful.
