Miyamoto, the left-pitcher who had just been replaced by Hayata, had a straight ball speed of around 130 kilometers according to Lee Wonrang's visual observations. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

That's certainly not the pitcher's fastest ball speed.

The current season is autumn, the temperature is much cooler than summer, and Miyamoto is temporarily supervised to replace the field, and he has not fully warmed up in a short time. As a protection for your shoulders, of course, there are reservations when pitching.

But even at his best, Miyamoto was just a left-handed shot with a ball speed of just over 135 kilometers.

Ball speed and strength may be considered to be in the upper middle of the average college pitcher.

But to put it mildly, this kind of strength is really not worthy of the whole of Tokyo, no, it should be said that it is the No. 1 jersey of Hayata, one of the few private famous players in the whole Japanese college football industry.

Miyamoto, who may only be regarded as a nominal trump card, was supervised and replaced in this situation, and the task was very simple.

He needs to deal with the only left-handed hitter in the Peace Academy lineup, Masaoka.

Even this kind of task, Miyamoto did not complete it easily.

It's like fighting with your opponent's second bat. Masaoka, who is the best at sticking in the Peace School team, is now also going all out to knock Miyamoto's pitches out of bounds one by one.

It wasn't until the seventh ball that a seemingly easy outside corner curved ball deceived Masaoka's air vibration.

Strikeouts out. Now the number of outs has become two. And the beater's turn was the main general Yabe Akio.

"It's better for them to change the cubicle back......"

Li Yuan, who was sitting in the rest area, knew that for Yabe, the more he faced an opponent with accurate ball control, the more chances he had to hit.

It would be better if there were enough samples of the ball as a reference.

Based on this standard, Komuro, who has already watched half the game, must be more to Yabe's appetite than Miyamoto, who has just been substituted.

And the scheduling supervised by the other party also met Li Yuanrang's expectations.

After all, judging by common sense, a right-handed horizontal shot, especially Komuro, who is better in terms of ball speed and ball control, is definitely better suited to deal with other right-hand hitters.

Now that there are people on first and second base, Yabe walks to the strike zone while recalling the opponent's pattern of the ball.

In addition to the basic diagonal matching, the opposing catcher in this game also likes to confuse the hitter by subtly changing positions and ball types at the same angle.

This type of ball distribution has higher requirements for the pitcher's ability to control the ball. And for the arrows of the guessing ball-type hitter, this is somewhat of a disadvantage.

However, Yabe still found his target for sniping.

A slider with a high dead end in the inside corner.

Only the base point of this lane does not change much.

For today's pitcher Komuro, to make use of the advantage of the horizontal shot to give right-hand hitters, especially right-hitters with narrow vision, such as Yabe, the illusion that a baseball is flying from behind, then it is necessary to use a slider from the inside corner.

In terms of the choice of high and low inside corners, the high ball closer to the line of sight is definitely more oppressive to the hitter.

Therefore, if the opponent's inside corner is a straight ball or a speed ball, most of them will have a slight difference to confuse the hitter.

If you slide the ball, it's almost a dead end.

Being able to accurately control the baseball into the corner of the good ball area is a reflection of the strength of the opposing pitcher, and it is also one of the reasons why Yabe likes pitchers who control the ball accurately.

Komuro's first shot to Yabe was in the inside corner.

A straight ball with a lot of power. Slightly higher than the upper edge of the good zone.

For the hitter, although the speed of such a ball is less than 140 kilometers, the physical speed will be much faster.

If you are facing a change ball, you will be able to make an error in the timing of your hit.

For Yabe, however, the problem was not obvious.

Yabe has never been the kind of hitter who keeps his eyes on the ball.

His impaired dynamic vision makes him slightly less sensitive to ball speed differences than his teammates.

When striking, he sets himself a target for the speed of the ball to snipe, and then relies on the body memory generated during training to determine the timing of the swing.

The second ball thrown by the opponent is also in the high inside corner.

This time it's a slide.

Observation from the rest area, observation from the strike preparation area, including experience at the time of the previous strike.

Yabe is already aware of and prepared for the speed and change of the opponent's slide.

"This ball must be in the dead end!"

Even if the problem of high myopia is not considered, the average right-hand hitter may not be able to hit such a changing ball even if he keeps an eye on the baseball.

Yabe, on the other hand, doesn't deliberately observe the path of the ball, and swings more according to his preset goals.

Because of this reason, the baseball was not played solidly, and flew to the left field with a small arc, and because of this little arc, it interfered with the prediction of the opponent's outfielder, and landed as a hit.

The two teammates on base were able to get back to home plate in time, but Yabe himself only had time to get to first base.

The score became three to two, and now the Peace School Park became the leading side.

Tokuda, who didn't expect to hit in this half of the game, walked unhurriedly to the strike zone, and he turned his head to look at the rest area, hoping that the superintendent could give him some useful instructions.

And Superintendent Yagi did make a code.

He asked Tokuda to hit the ball in the left-hand zone this time.

As a result of this decision, Tokuda had to run back into the rest area to adjust his striking gear.

Although the batting helmets used in college games are used for both left and right, the general protective gear is only worn on the side facing the pitcher.

If you change the mat, then the protective gear will be different.

"Will it be a strike or a hit?"

Tokuda had already returned to the rest area, and there was no need to communicate with the code, so he asked the superintendent directly about the tactics.

"Can you see the path of the cross-shot ball clearly?"

"To see is to see clearly...... But ......"

The idea that a left-hand striker refrains from a right-sided shot is deeply ingrained in baseball. However, for a college player of Tokuda's age, how to observe the opponent's shooting point does not actually get too many opportunities to practice in actual combat.

In addition, there are many types of hitters, and the perceived hitter and the thoughtful hitter have different observations of the situation on the court.

In the current team of the Peace Academy, Tokuda and Li Yuanrang are undoubtedly the most talented players. However, both men also have a problem, as they rely more on talent and sense in their striking than on rational striking tactics against their opponents.

Of course, Superintendent Yagi could see this, and he was not counting on Tokuda to see through the pitching posture against the pitcher, but hoping that Tokuda's hitting instinct would work now.

Wearing the striking gear, Tokuda entered the strike zone of the left-hitter.

Hayata called a timeout, the catcher came up to pitch the mound, and Miyamoto, the left pitcher who guarded the outfield, also ran over.

However, in the end, the opponent did not choose to change the pitcher.
