Chapter 170: Scheduling

For most experienced hitters, the high outside corners of the four corners of the good ball zone are probably the least challenging. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

But Li Yuan made this ball match the outside corner high.

After two outside corners in a row, the hitter Hirohashi decided that Li Yuanrang did not dare to put the ball into the inside corner to face him, and was ready to continue playing outside corners.

But what he didn't expect was that the ball was a high ball.

If you want to avoid being hit long, your best bet is to throw another low shot from the outside corner. If you want to rely on poor vision to interfere with the beater, then the high inside angle is the best choice.

And the outside corner high ball, even if it is a little high, I am afraid it is not impossible to hit.

Hirohashi swung confidently.

However, he didn't realize the problem until he swung his bat.

The pitcher Masaoka threw the ball too high. Anyone with a modicum of common sense can tell that this is a bad ball.

If it weren't for keeping an eye on the outside corner, if it wasn't for the vigilance of the outside corner high ball, with Hirohashi's usual selection eye, this ball would definitely have been let go.

But now that he has already swung the baton, there is no possibility of taking it back.

The baseball was scooped into the air. Soar extremely high.

The defenders in the field keep an eye on the white ball in the sun. Eventually, the ball landed in the defense zone of the shortstop Tokuda, who had taken a few steps back. The catch was out, and there were no accidents.

The result was a good result, but judging from the process, it seems that pitcher Masaoka's left-hand advantage did not take full advantage.

Instead, he faced the next opponent's four-stick beater, Kobayashi. Under the guidance of Li Yuanrang, he gave full play to the advantage of the left pitcher attacking the opponent's inside corner and grabbed a strikeout.

"Overseer, how long do I have to vote?"

When the offense and defense were exchanged, Masaoka, who had solved two opposing central hitters in a row to help the team through the crisis, asked Yagi Supervisor with a little weakness.

"The next time we defend again, I'll let Yabe come back and shoot."

"That's good, that's good."

Before Yagi supervised the game, he had already explained to Masaoka about serving as the left relay.

In amateur games, there is not much detailed division of labor among pitchers. However, in the professional field, the left relay is often a one-man pitcher.

When the opponent's left-hand hitter comes on the field, he is substituted, and the hitter in front of him is about to be replaced.

After Hirohashi was out just now, Masaokamoto thought that he was going to be replaced with a first baseman position.

Unexpectedly, the overseer gave him an order to renew the vote.

In this regard, Superintendent Yagi has his own considerations.

Relative to the three-stick Hirohashi and the five-stick Nomura.

Kobayashi, the four-batter of Keming Pavilion, does not have a strong sense of existence.

But Kobayashi is, after all, a steady and well-rounded home runner. The last time Yabe faced Kobayashi's pitch was not easy.

Kobayashi is a right-hand hitter, but even right-hand hitters often lack adaptability to left-hand throws at this age in college.

Taking a step back, if Kobayashi is now faced with a left-handed shot with a different throwing style, it can also dilute the impression of Yabe's throwing in his mind. It is also more beneficial for the second half of the competition.

There is a lack of absolute aces in the team with the power to suppress long innings. You can only use this way of constantly changing your pitching style to confuse your opponent against the hitter.

The Peace School continued to hold a one-point lead, and the game entered the fifth inning.

Scoring is still not an easy task, and the second graders make up seven, eight, and nine sticks with three up and three down.

Turning his head to the opponent's attacking opportunity, in the face of Katsunori Nomura, who hit long-distance throw-ins one after another, Superintendent Yagi issued a guarantee order.

Li Yuanrang was not entirely convinced by this arrangement, but the superintendent's instructions still had to be carried out.

Later developments also proved the correctness of Yagi's supervisory directives.

The back-end batter at Keming was unable to return the somewhat slower catcher to home plate.

The score remained 1-0 until the bottom half of the seventh inning.

"It's almost time for Tokuda to board the board."

During the exchange of offense and defense, Yabe made a suggestion to Inspector Yagi.

If the opponent has been three up and three down, then Tokuda will be facing a round of beaters from the seventh game. The opponent didn't have time to get used to his pitching.

What's more, in the next seventh game, Keming Hall appeared one after another with three, four, and five sticks, and the lead was only one point. The game is in the middle of what the Japanese world calls "engagement".

"If you're a Terminator, you'll be the last to appear."

Superintendent Yagi has been a promoter of the division of labor among baseball pitchers. However, there is a lack of actual combat testing in actual on-site scheduling.

The way the college ball world is scheduled is very different from the professional game. However, Yagi's reference materials for pitcher division scheduling can often only come from professional games.

With a one-point lead in the game, the starting pitcher is still full of energy, and it is not the time for a finisher to play in a professional game.

But on the other hand, if it is really a professional game, the so-called "Formula of Victory" or "SetupMan" will be replaced at times such as seven or eight rounds. That is, one or two relay pitchers who have a pressing power in a single inning. And not the Terminator.

Obviously, the other pitcher right now is not going to be able to take on that kind of responsibility. And in college football, there are few teams that have such a complete staffing.

The choice of the Yagi superintendent was Yabe to continue to vote.

Yabe held back what he wanted to say. From taking over the team until now, Superintendent Yagi has not encountered too many obstacles. Even he was still in charge, and he was complacent about the scheduling of the game he had just played.

It's not easy to convince him in this state.

Yabe can only hope that he can keep his score in the next two rounds. If possible, it would be nice to have a little more support in the line.

The first hitter in the seventh inning was Hisashi Hirohashi, the pitcher who made Lee Wonrang feel the most pressured in the line.

Hirohashi was a pitcher in today's game, and the defense only dropped a point due to a teammate's error.

Although I couldn't hit the base. But in the first two seats, Li Yuanrang won the game with the highest level of vigilance.

This is the second time Hirohashi has faced Yabe's pitch.

After one good and one bad, Li Yuanrang was equipped with an outside corner low ball.

It's just a safe card to play safely.

But the actual result of the throw, this ball is slightly more inward than the position asked by Li Yuanrang.

It's not as good as the one in the first game. However, for Hirohashi, who has been prepared for a long time, it is still a level that can be beaten.

Despite being a straight ball with a low outside corner. Hirohashi, who was accustomed to pulling and hitting techniques, still hit the ball in the direction between first and second base.

The ball passes through the infield line from just over the head of the defender. Landing between the stalwart and right fielder's zone.

The flight distance of this ball is not far, but because of the angle, plus the lack of mobility of the current field defense line of the Peace School. This gives hitter Hirohashi enough time to get to second base.

Li Yuanrang wanted to call a timeout. However, the overseer Yagi in the rest area was already one step ahead of him.

The herald's player, Ibaraki, ran into the field again.

"The superintendent said to change the pitcher and let Tokuda pitch."

"If you wish you had done it earlier!"

These are the words in Yabe's heart, but as a captain, this sentence is not suitable for saying now.

"Is it okay to warm up temporarily?"

Yabe turned his head and said to Tokuda beside him.
