"Wang Chuan's pitching posture is relatively unique, the ball path is mainly low, although the ball speed is not fast enough, but the ball control is OK, if you can flexibly use these two advantages, the strength is also very strong. If you say, it's not a big problem to catch Wang Chuan's ball now, but he is a pitcher who relies on good balls to decide on the edge, and it would be great if he could use gloves to interfere with the referee's judgment, so let's try to 'turn bad balls into good balls' for now. Zhang Sheng made it more difficult for Li Yu to catch the ball.

In baseball, the judgment of good balls and bad balls completely depends on the judgment of the referee, and now the pitchers are getting faster and faster, and the average time for the referee and the hitter to judge is only about half a second. It is very difficult to see the ball and make a quick judgment in such a short period of time, so the referees will also assist in judging the good and bad balls based on the action of the catcher receiving the ball, which is where the catcher can deceive the referee. On the edge of the ball, even outside the good ball area, the catcher can still make small moves to make the referee award a good ball; And in the good ball area, if the receiving action is flawed, it is not surprising that it is judged as a bad ball. And this exclusive technology for catchers, there are no technical statistics that can reflect it, but this technology does bring some benefits to the team, and the pitcher will be comfortable with it, and this bonus will have an effect in the usual bits and pieces. A more famous example can be found in the major league catcher, Martin of the Pirates.

With good possession of the ball, can you decide the winner on the edge of the good zone? In a sense, I have something in common with Ouyang Dong, Ouyang Dong can also pitch in this way, stealing the ball is also a skill I need to master, it's great to start practicing here!

Li Yu was very satisfied with Zhang Sheng's request, and it seemed that Zhang Sheng already knew something about this technique, and maybe he could also point out to himself, which was undoubtedly of great help to him. He clenched his left hand into a fist, hammered the glove of his right hand twice, and said imposingly, "Come on." ”

Zhang Sheng and Shen Sihang on the side glanced at each other, and each saw a lot of things from each other's eyes.

……

"Yo, Li Long, you're here to feed the ball today, that's the right time." Ding Lei was very excited when he saw Li Long on the pitcher's mound.

"Haha, you're still the same, come on, come on, let you fight enough!" Li Long is also very enthusiastic, he is a guy with a very good personality and good popularity.

"Forget it today, let him fight." When he said the word "he", Ding Lei patted Ouyang Dong on the shoulder.

"This kid is a pitcher, are you mistaken?" Li Long was a little surprised by Ding Lei's request.

"No, no, this kid feels good when he plays the ball machine, the movements are quite smooth, the hitting rate is also very high, and he looks like he has a good sense of the ball, so I took him to try it."

"Oh, that's what happened," Li Long's tone revealed a feeling of "I understand", of course, Ouyang Dong couldn't hear it. "But it's really strange, half a month ago, you had a conflict with him, and you were punished by the boss to practice with a newcomer, and the relationship was so good in a blink of an eye!"

"You know my temper!" Ding Lei smiled awkwardly, "Okay, let's go, it's rare for this guy to feed the ball!" Ding Lei said to Ouyang Dong.

"Yes!" Ouyang Dong has become accustomed to the etiquette of this school, which also makes the other seniors more satisfied. He put on a helmet and elbow pads, picked up the bat and stood in the strike zone, and made a posture of hitting very casually: "Please advise, senior!" “

"Ah, I will."

Li Long first gave Ouyang Dong a ball in the center for Ouyang Dong to play, and Ouyang Dong easily swung his bat and hit the ball far away. Li Long looked at the ball that was beaten to the outfield with satisfaction: It seems to be good!

Next, Li Long gave another slightly inward ball, and Ouyang Dong swung the bat again, still hitting the ball to the outfield. After giving a few good balls in a row, he suddenly threw a bad ball in the inside corner, Ouyang Dong still shot, but he just pressed the third base line out of bounds, but the hitting action was still very smooth. Li Long and Ding Lei showed a strange look in their eyes.

Li Long changed the bad ball in the outer corner this time, and Ouyang Dong's hitting action still looked so beautiful, and he still hit the ball with the center of the bat. Li Long tried some different ways of the ball, and without exception, Ouyang Dong's blows were all beautiful.

"Stop!" Ding Lei interrupted their training. Li Long also took advantage of the situation, and he and Ding Lei had the same idea.

"Ouyang, let me ask you a question, what were you thinking about when you struck?"

"Eh, what do you think?" Ouyang Dong was confused.

"Yes, just describe to us what you just did." Ding Lei realized that his problem was a little abrupt, and then explained.

"Nothing special, I didn't think about anything, I just watched the ball come and played. If it's special, it's that I always feel like my body swings the bat naturally, as if I know where the ball will go in advance. Ouyang Dong said frankly.

Ding Lei and Li Long felt extremely shocked in their hearts! Originally, this kid's pitching was quite buggy, and if the blow came again, it was a suspicion of life.

calmed down a little, Ding Lei said lightly: "That's the case, then you are really great, playing when you come to the ball is actually the most difficult thing, because everyone will inevitably think about something in their hearts, and these things will affect the performance, which is very tangled." Moreover, for people who are accustomed to the pitching machine suddenly changing to the pitcher's pitcher, they often look for the ball after the bat is swung out, and they deliberately use the bat to touch the ball, which not only has no quality in the blow, but also makes it easy to get hurt. “

"Ah, that's right."

After chatting a little more, Ding Lei gave some guidance on hitting skills, Ouyang Dong started hitting training again, Ding Lei saw that Ouyang Dong had no problem, so he carried the bat and went to practice by himself, Li Long was more and more excited, and naughtily mixed a few change balls to Ouyang Dong in the middle; Ouyang Dong is also getting more and more excited'; At the end of the training, Li Long threw the ball and threw it very happily, and Ouyang Dong played the ball very happily. These two pitchers soon became friends, they went to the door of the cafeteria together to find their accustomed "meal friends" separated, and on the way they also talked about some pitching topics, Ouyang Dong felt very good. The two completely forgot about Ding Lei, so he had to go to the cafeteria alone, and then deliberately sat next to Li Long to express his dissatisfaction.
