Chapter 6: Partnering with the Pros

"Ah, this, haha, hey, hey, hey......"

Bang Lei Zang touched the back of his head in embarrassment, looking like he didn't know what to say.

"Shame! As far as you run away, how did you do someone else's father? ”

When Thunder City complained about his father, he didn't even stutter.

"Such an astronomical amount, do you think we are a tyrant family? How can you afford to lose? ”

Father and son squirmed as they spoke.

Of course, they can't really fight, they just make a show of each other.

This kind of mode of getting along makes Comrade Li envious.

"The relationship between these two is so good!"

Although Comrade Lao Li thinks that he is also a good father, when he gets along with Li Lei, it seems that he has never been like this.

Although he just wants to make friends with his baby son, Li Lei has always been rejecting people.

"Why don't we try it too?"

Li Lei listened to Comrade Li's emotion and asked in a low voice.

Looking at his son, who was half a head taller than himself, an embarrassed expression appeared on Comrade Li's face.

"Forget it! Our Chinese father and son get along, and it is still traditional. The excellent traditions of our ancestors cannot be lost. ”

The two quickly decided the winner.

Thunder Hide, who has won the victory, looks complacent.

"This kid is fine! He shouldn't be able to catch your ball, though. If you still want to continue the showdown, would you like to consider a different catcher? ”

Bang Lei Zang's proposal was very tempting to Li Lei.

"It's an honor to be a partner with a professional star, even if it's retired!"

"Oh, you know me?"

Thunder Zang raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He has been out of the professional arena for more than a decade.

If you want to talk about the age of the fans, you can recognize him, and Bang Lei Zang is not surprised at all.

At that time, his reputation for fighting was very loud in the professional arena. It wasn't surprising that a few fans were obsessed with him.

But Li Lei looks like he is only fifteen or sixteen years old.

When he was dominating on the court, Li Lei was probably still a nursing baby.

How could he possibly know himself?

"I have a little bit of research on the top players in the professional arena, especially the great pitchers, as long as I can find footage."

Li Lei didn't sell it, he directly answered the doubts that Bang Lei hid.

"Research excellent pitchers, could it be that you kid is also a strong baseman?"

Thunder Zang asked in surprise.

When he was teaching his precious son, he once let his son do something similar.

Search the web for videos to see the pitching of the best pitchers in the major leagues and in the professional arena. Modeled after those pitches, let your son do imagination exercises.

"That's not ......"

Li Lei shook his head and denied it, but he didn't explain too much.

"Now that it's decided, let's change your equipment!"

The showdown continues.

After Lei Zang changed his equipment, he took the initiative to discuss tactics with Li Lei.

"What kind of ball are you going to have? What about ball control? ”

"Just with a straight ball and a finger fork, and as for ball control, I can almost divide a good ball into four equal parts."

For a good change ball pitcher, ball control is a lifeline.

Possession of the ball is even more important than ball speed.

If you can't throw the ball into the corners, you don't have great ball control.

Then your change balls, there is a good chance that all of them will become bad balls.

"Is it a ball speed of about 130 kilometers, a good ball with 4 equal ball control, and enough change balls to make Ray City's swing miss?"

Bang Lei Zang was quite surprised, looking at Li Lei in front of him.

Although only a cursory observation......

But judging from the information revealed by Li Lei himself, he should not be an unknown person.

This is a very complete pitcher, and the good pitchers who pitch on the Koshien court may not be better than him.

"Have you trained on any team before?"

In the face of Lei Zang's question, Li Lei only nodded slightly, but did not elaborate.

"That's fun!"

Thunder Zang narrowed his eyes slightly, and then squatted down at the catcher position.

After squatting, he didn't forget to ridicule his stupid son.

"Your opponent today has a little bit of strength. Your three-legged cat's swing of the bat, I'm afraid you can't even touch the hair of other people's pitching. ”

It's a simple method of agitation, but it's surprisingly effective.

"Boom!"

Thunder City, who was holding a bat in his hand, had surging fighting spirit in his eyes.

He turned his head to look at Li Lei, who was pitching, as if he was looking at the big boss in the game.

There's tension there, but there's also excitement......

This guy's adrenaline has been completely mobilized by his father's words.

Li Lei, who was about to pitch, was also surging in his heart.

This wonderful father and son pair made him feel particularly interesting.

In this case, he wants to learn how to swing the baton of the other party.

"Next ball, finger fork ball!"

In the duel between Li Lei and Thunder City, Thunder Zang naturally can't interfere.

So the one in charge of making the code is actually Li Lei.

It's up to him to decide what he wants to throw?

As for why he reminded Thunder Zang, of course, it was to let his partner be mentally prepared in advance, so as not to let the baseball fall on him.

"The first ball just now is a fork ball, and the second ball is also a cross ball?"

Thunder Hide had doubts in his heart, but he didn't say it.

I saw Li Lei, who was in charge of pitching, raised his legs high, and then fell heavily. As the center of gravity of his body shifted, the baseball in his hand also whistled out.

"Whew!"

In the face of the flying baseball, a flash of fire flashed in Thunder City's eyes.

Here it comes!

Not again!

The goal he couldn't hit before was back in front of him.

This familiar feeling made the blood boil in Thunder City.

He gripped the bat tightly with both hands, and when the baseball came to him, Thunder City didn't hesitate any longer.

He swung his bat out cleanly.

"Boom!"

The collision of electric light and flint.

The bat hit the baseball solidly, and then the baseball flew out like a trumpet missile.

"Poof!"

The baseball that flew out finally smashed into the dam by the river, and the ball smashed a small hole of 20 centimeters directly on the earthen dam.

"Wow!"

Seeing this scene, Mishima and Akiba all jumped up excitedly.

"Perfect!"

"It's worthy of Thunder City!"

"Now, our dinner ......"

Just as the two of them were celebrating, the thunder city in the strike zone let out a strange laugh again.

The momentum condensed on his body did not dissipate, but became more intense.

Hong Leizang, who is a catcher and also the referee, did not look at his baby son, but at Li Lei, who was pitching.

"The baseball has sunk even more!"

"Throw-in, two good and zero bad!"

Although Thunder City knocked the ball out, if this was the court, the ball he hit had actually deviated from the sideline.

So it's just a throw-in, and before two good goals, such a ball is considered a good ball.
