If Hayata Sho's first stick Enomoto is the most threatening, it is in the strike zone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Then the most troublesome time for their second batter was on the base.

Thankfully, without the cover of his teammates, the team's number one fast leg wouldn't have been easy to get off base.

Ishiwatari is the kind of "real" second-best player.

The speed is fast, and the sacrificial hit can always run into a safe strike.

And the basic skills of short play are also good.

But if he comes on the pitch and has no one on the base, count on his own bat. That's just one word.

"Sticky".

Lee Wonrang has tried to guide Yabe to keep the ball down as much as possible, trying to create an infield rolling ball.

Still, more than five goals were wasted on this opponent.

It was a bit of a fluke to get out in the end.

The renovated Hachioji Civic Stadium is particularly spacious on both sides of the field.

A throw-in that should have gone up to the stands on other fields was picked up by the third baseman.

This difference in the game in different field environments is also one of the joys of baseball games.

The catcher of the third bat, Oya, swings the stick more aggressively. Not too picky about good and bad balls. Li Yuanrang earned a strikeout from him.

In this way, almost all methods have been exhausted. Finally got through the top half of the game.

Even though it was just crouching behind home plate to catch the ball, even though it was only facing the opponent's three hitters, albeit three up and three down. But when Li Yuanrang returned to the rest area, the back of his jersey was already soaked with sweat.

It's late October in Tokyo. The temperature is not cold, but it is by no means warm.

"The next time you go on the pitch to defend, it's just four sticks against the opponent."

Supervisor Yagi reminded Li Yuanrang beside him.

"I know."

"If necessary, you can escort it."

Generally, school teams will put the strongest hitter in three, four, and five sticks.

However, from the data available so far, it seems that this is not the case with Hayata.

Their beaters are not arranged in a very regular manner

Enomoto, who was the first batter, was the player with the highest hitting rate on the team, and from the data, it seems that he is more suitable for the third batter.

And the catcher Oya, who is really in third place, is actually a blind cannon, and if you should play the sixth or seventh stick in other teams to try for a surprise long shot.

Li Yuanrang didn't quite understand his opponent's intentions in doing so.

However, the other party's supervisor is a veteran who has coached the team for more than 20 years. There must be a reason for that.

Of course, there is one thing that is no different from other teams.

The four-batter is the most dangerous in the line.

First grade third baseman Saito. In the summer conference, there are five batters. There are four home runs in official games. Since the autumn conference took over four times, almost every shot was fired in the previous games.

"According to this efficiency, by the third year, the college should have an output of 60 to 70 rounds."

The rest area of the Peace School is right on the side of the third base, and Superintendent Yagi looks at Saito's silhouette and makes this assumption.

The so-called "college general-purpose" home run production actually counts the results in both formal and unofficial games.

Under normal circumstances, there is a large gold content and moisture. Drafts are often also used for informational purposes only.

However, for Hayata, who always looks for a strong team in the practice matches, their practice matches are probably of a higher quality than in the previous rounds of the Tokyo Games.

In this case, the general data of colleges and universities has become a reference.

For example, the pitcher who is pitching on the court right now is less than 170 years tall.

As a right-handed cross-shot, there was a huge disparity in the stats between left-handers and right-handers in previous practice games.

However, the left-hand hitters he faced in practice games were all private baseball players.

And the Peace Academy,There are eight people in the entire line of play who are right-hitting.,The only left-hitter, Masaoka.,It seems that he hasn't learned the skill of observing the pitcher's shooting point to restrain the opponent's throwing.。

A tricky stretch ball is thrown in a sideways stance.

For the hitters in the strike zone, it's like a baseball floats up and sinks.

Masaoka didn't think the ball was too fast, so he swung his bat and hit the ball.

And the baseball flew lightly above the infield.

Out without any suspense.

This is true for left-hand strikers, and it is even more difficult for right-hand players to observe the ball.

A true sideways thrower throws a lateral change ball that looks like it's flying from behind for the average right-hand hitter.

Especially the main player Akio Yabe, who has a narrow vision of the game with glasses.

Baseball always seems to pop up in front of you.

I didn't have time to swing the baton for two consecutive balls.

For the third ball, Yabe used the old way. Guessed the opponent's match.

But the timing of the swing of the bat is a bit off. The third baseman rolls the ball head-on. Blocked out.

"Tokuda, come over here."

Before Tokuda, who was on the third base, came on to strike, Superintendent Yagi suddenly called him to his side.

But when Tokuda walked back to the overseer, Yagi waved his hand.

"Forget it, forget it."

As a result, no orders were given.

"Originally, I wanted Tokuda to try a left-hand hit?"

Li Yuanrang inquired about the overseer's intentions with a tentative taste.

In the pre-game discussion on tactics, Li Yuanrang once put forward this opinion.

At that time, it was rejected by the superintendent at the first time.

However, against a pitcher who throws sideways, the hitter in the opposite direction has a particular advantage.

It seems that Superintendent Yagi himself is somewhat shaken in his heart.

"It's almost time for you to go to the Strike Preparation Zone."

Overseer Yagi, who didn't want to show his heart, used this method to get Li Yuan out of the way.

Due to the temperature during the summer games, some players will not enter the strike preparation area in advance to standby.

However, it is the end of October, and the daytime temperature is mostly in the mid-teens. If the weather is bad, it will be even colder.

Warming up with a baton on the sidelines might be a better option.

And Li Yuanrang, who is the fourth baseman, did not leave the rest area when he came on the court in Tokuda just now, which is actually a not very positive attitude.

After all, there are already two people out of the game.

Although Tokuda has a good talent, he has not been consistent in his striking performance.

Li Yuanrang felt that the chance of playing on the court in this half game was probably less than a quarter.

But the overseer's instructions are orders, and at the same time, Li Yuanrang also felt that it was not a bad thing to see the opponent's pitch from a closer angle.

On the playing field, the hitter Tokuda Ball let go of the side-throwing slide that seemed to fly from behind him. Specializes in sniping opponents' straight balls.

But until two good and one bad, the straight ball he wanted never came.

"Even if it's a change ball, it's going to be played."

Two outs, two good shots. Tokuda, who had no way out, waited for the fourth goal.

"Straight ball!"

This was Tokuda's first reaction.

But halfway through the swing of the stick, I already felt deceived.

It's a circle-finger speed ball. At first it looks like a straight ball, but the difference in speed is completely different from the drop.

Cross pitchers cannot throw the common finger cross ball because of their pitching position. Therefore, in the selection of longitudinal change balls, the speed ball is often the main one.

Unlike the two teammates who played Fan Fight just now, Tokuda ate a strikeout.

In the first game, both sides played three up and three down.
