Semi-finals of the Spring Tokyo Games. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoPeace School is the first to attack.

The starting pitcher at BWI High School is second-year ace Tetsuya Kawanishi.

Although his face was white, judging from the diameter and curve of his arms, it was obvious that the muscles of this Hexi body had been carefully shaped.

"That's what I want to do!"

Akio Yabe, who was in the rest area, looked a little envious of Kawanishi's muscle mass.

"I think you've become weird since you started working out, staring at boys' muscles."

Lee felt that Yabe was no longer exercising to improve his baseball prowess. His pleasure has become the workout itself.

Of course, Tetsuya Kawanishi's muscles are not ornaments.

In the face of Tokuda balls, the speed of straight balls is around 145 kilometers.

What is especially valuable is that Hexi can not only maintain control of the ball at this ball speed. And the high rotational speed of the baseball when it goes into the base also makes his straight ball look like it is "rising".

"It's really simple and straightforward."

Li Yuanrang is not only paying attention to the pitcher's pitching, but also recording the opponent's matching pattern by the way.

Facing Tokuda, the catchers of Kyocei Takaka used a very simple match.

The inside corner of the straight ball is high, and the outside corner of the slider ball is low. Then repeat

Tokuda took a slippery shot at the fourth pitch and hit a rolling ball in front of the second baseman.

Even if you run with all your might, you can't get to base. One out.

The second hitter was Masaoka, a left-hand hitter.

Hexi's straight ball speed suddenly dropped to around 138 kilometers.

It's not a rise and fall of state, it's a distribution of power.

Toru Kawanishi's first few games were all complete shots. It's not about amazing stamina.

If you are throwing the ball with all your strength in the face of every hitter, you will definitely not be able to hold on to the end.

In the face of hitters who do not need to rely on ball speed to fight hard, slowing down the ball speed appropriately is also one of the reasonable strategies.

As for what kind of opponent you need to face. This kind of data gathering needs to rely on the entire baseball club.

Most of the baseball members of BWI High School are ordinary students who are admitted through the general entrance examination.

Considering the entrance threshold for entering a prestigious metropolitan school. These general entrance exams will not be far from being in the brains.

The effort to organize and collect information is also above average.

As long as these players in the Peace Academy can gather information through open channels, their opponents will definitely be able to grasp it.

In the face of Masaoka, the matching model of Jingxi University is completely different.

Every ball thrown by Kasai is a straight ball.

Masaoka quickly fell into a sticky mode.

On the sixth ball, Kasai suddenly flew the ball speed in the inside corner.

Masaoka didn't keep up with the rhythm and missed his swing. Strikeouts out.

Now it was the turn of the blow to the arrow of the third stick.

Yabe's muscle mass, which has been trained for a winter, isn't just good for pitching. It can also come in handy on strikes.

But there is a premise, it is only useful to be able to play baseball.

In the case of Yabe, the increased swing speed due to the improvement in strength will have limited help in increasing the strike rate.

The maneuvering between him and the other party's casting partner is actually a process of wit.

Daisuke Minami, a catcher at Western Beijing University, is also a second-year student. It is also a general entrance exam.

When he was in middle school, Minami Daisuke was just a defensive player with excellent physical fitness, a steady pitcher who could catch and pitch. His introduction to the ball was after entering the college baseball club.

As an honor student with good grades. Daisuke Minami has mastered several completely different ball-matching templates.

Switch between different opponents during the match.

This is undoubtedly a challenge for Yabe, who relies on cracking the opponent's matching pattern to strike.

Yabe needs to find out the opponent's matching routine within a single mat.

But even this one saw through the opponent. This experience may not be useful for the next table.

Because even if Nan Daisuke faces the same beater, there will be several different sets of plans to implement.

Yabe carefully observes every ball his opponent throws and carefully plays a good shot that might hit a hit.

However, the number of samples the opponent pitched is not enough to infer the next matching routine.

After two good and one bad. A slider with a high outside corner forced Yabe had to give up his rationality and use his instincts instead.

Baseball soars into the air as it sees the height of the sky.

Catcher Daisuke Minami takes off his mask. I caught the baseball without moving.

In the first half of the first inning, pitcher Kasai made the Peace School three up and three down. But the Peace School is not without gains.。

During the winter training camp, Superintendent Yagi emphasized the importance of ball selection. The three hitters in the first game all insisted on grinding more than four balls before exiting.

Metropolitan universities have limited bench depth. This trend continues, depleting the physical strength of the opposing starting pitcher. There will definitely be chances to score in the second half of the game.

As for the opponent's line. A few points have been scored in every game before. But there was only one landslide victory.

Overseer Yagi gave Li Yuan the right to make decisions on the spot to escort the four bads. This is also a special strategy for metropolitan universities.

Although there are now places for cultural and sports recommended admission, most of the lineup of kilometer schools is still ordinary students who enter the general entrance examination.

It was impossible for them to discharge nine threatening hitters. There are always a few people in the main line that are easier to deal with.

As a general rule of thumb, batters in the first few batters will be more difficult to deal with.

For example, these guys in the second half of a game.

BWI High's top three basemen happen to be three of their third-year sports specialists.

Iida, a stalwart of the bat, is a left-hand player. It was originally the team's scheduled next ACE. Unfortunately, Hexi's growth was too rapid. Iida has been concentrating on being a field player since last year's autumn convention.

Nominally, he is also the team's No. 2 pitcher. But not a single ball was thrown in the official game throughout the spring.

Of course, even if he only relies on guarding and hitting, Iida is worthy of the special enrollment quota that the baseball club consumes on him.

Iida's striking form is the type that casually touches the bat and starts running.

He let go of Yabe's first straight ball. Shoot directly at the slower change ball.

The curveball in the inside corner is swept between first and second base in the direction of the first baseman. The baseball rolls a bit slowly, and if you sit back and wait for it to roll into the glove, the runner may have already hit the base first.

First baseman Masaoka was confident in his speed of movement and shouted at his teammates. I rushed out to pick up the ball as soon as possible.

When he picked up the baseball and turned around, he found that the arrow who had made it to first base had not yet stepped on the base bag.

A moment of hesitation gave the opponent a chance to get on base. The ball was run to an infield hit.

"Don't care! Don't care! ”

Li Yuanrang took off his mask and shouted two words in the direction of Yabe.

It's nowhere near the time to call a timeout and rush to the pitcher's mound.

Akio Yabe increased his weight and muscle mass during the winter training camp, especially in the upper body.

The price paid is a decrease in movement speed. In fact, Li Yuanrang could detect this in the previous team training.

Yabe wasn't running slower now, he just hadn't adjusted to the change in his body's center of gravity.

In Li Yuanrang's view, the biggest problem of this kind of discomfort is not actually the mechanical aspect. The effect of a change in center of gravity on balance can not only disrupt the fluidity of the pitching position, but also create a risk of injury.

That's the problem.
