In any anime related to high school, baseball is almost inevitable to be seen.

And the reason why baseball is raging like a virus in neon is because it was invented by his American dad.

The real reason for the mouth beard will naturally not be so shallow. Children can be seen playing wild ball in any small open space, so small children are not even clear about the concept of the country, how can they worship foreign countries.

In this age of abstraction, in the magical country of neon, anything has the potential to become popular. However, whether such a fad is short-lived or enduring depends on the value of the fad itself.

Sports itself has two major attributes, one is use, and the other is pleasure. Whether it's physical fitness, character development, or social interactions, these are all add-ons to these two attributes.

Kendo, sailing, athletics, wrestling, swimming, etc., are not to be mentioned, but even if they are not specifically engaged in related sports, they are constantly being practiced in the daily life of human beings. Chess, football, badminton, etc., are the latter, and throughout history, leisure and recreational activities have been standardized as a specialized sport.

Baseball, just these two words themselves seem to be full of dreams, youth and passion. The players on the baseball field who fell to the ground and cried bitterly, leaning on each other to move forward all the way to win......

The so-called cultivation of human character through sports is nothing more than mutual help among peers, the desire for victory, perseverance in the face of suffering, perseverance, hard work, and never stopping...... All of this can be seen on the Koshien field, but at the end of the day, it is the athlete's own gain.

And what about the audience?

Without spectators, there would be no attention, without attention there would be no sponsors, and without sponsors, the sport would slowly disappear into history.

What does it take to have an audience?

Interesting!

Simple two words do it all, baseball is a fun sport.

Because it is fun, children will use the boring and precious rest time to play baseball, because it is interesting, the players will not feel bored and will keep improving, and because it is interesting, the audience likes to watch it.

"It's a sport of individual heroism and collectivism, where one hero can lead the whole team to victory, but collective cooperation can also kill the enemy's hero."

"I've heard the saying that football is round, so anything is possible."

"Shit!" Ryota Tsuchitani slammed his bat on the ground and scolded viciously.

"Baseball is really about anything that is possible, and you never know the outcome until the last minute. Remember, Hojo, as long as you're strong enough, you can drag your opponent into the abyss of overtime, even if you can't lead your team to victory! If we can't defeat each other technically, let them see what we realize.

Even if they are tired to death in the arena, they will definitely not let them beat us easily! ”

“……”

Kyosuke Hojo's mouth opened slightly, and he wanted to ask how you managed to say such cowardly words in such a fierce tone.

At this moment, Ryota Tsuchitani was explaining the rules of baseball to Kyosuke Hojo, and the other members were also listening quietly, although they were all too familiar to know each other, they were still listening attentively. In addition to being beaten for not being attentive, it is also because it is related to the role of Kyosuke Hojo in the team in the future, and how everyone will cooperate with him.

"Baseball is divided into defenders and offenses, Hojo, guess it's the offense or the offense with the bat."

"It had to be a baseball bat."

Kyosuke Hojo replied without thinking, but he only felt that Tsuchiya was quite level. According to a group of people, it should be the attacker who smashes people with the ball, and the one who stands in place with a bat and hits the ball out is more like defense. However, if you look at the weapons held by both sides, it is clear that the bat is more ferocious, much like the attacker.

"Yes, the rules of baseball are pretty simple. Hit hard, run hard!

There is home, first, second, and third base on the baseball field. This game is like Dragon Quest, the "beater" is the hero, and the defender is the dragon's minions. The base bag is a treasure trove, the "hitter" knocks the ball away and gets the key to open the dragon castle and can move towards the treasure house, the farther the ball is hit, the better the quality of the key, and the general blow is only enough for the brave to go to the first treasure trove "first base".

But it's not that you can score on base, you have to be able to take the treasure out of the castle to be successful, and if you are killed by the dragon in the middle, it will all be over. Therefore, after the baseball is knocked away, the brave must run through the first, second and third bases in turn, and then return to home plate safely, so as to score and walk out of the castle gate. ”

"Hey, minister, you're not Dragon Quest, it's clear that bandits entered the village, right?" Someone in the department said with a smile.

"Shut up, that's what it means!" Ryota Tsuchitani's eyes widened, I don't know how long I thought about it before I came up with such a statement, it's enough to make interesting science videos, okay!

"That is, hit the ball away, run a lap, and the score is in hand, right?" Kyosuke Hojo concluded.

"That's right."

Ryota Tsuchiya nodded, and continued:

"But it's said that it's the dragon castle, of course, it's not so simple to let the brave take the treasure away, including home plate, every base bag has someone to defend, and the dragon's minions will do their best to kill the brave.

At the beginning of the game, there were ten people on the field, nine of them were defenders and one attacker. I'm also the reason why I say Dragon Quest, compared to the huge defensive lineup, the "beater" alone looks weak.

And each of these defenders has the ability to send the brave off the field, as long as they have a baseball in their hands. ”

"No matter how much you say, it's better to let you come to a fight in person to understand quickly, you come to be a "beater", and we will teach you to practice at the same time."

After saying the rules of squeezing out, Ryota Tsuchitani clapped his hands.

So Kyosuke Hojo brought a baseball helmet, which is a "hitter" unique piece of equipment to prevent him from being hit in the head. See, this is the fundamental reason why a sport can last for a long time, and the helmet must be worn well! Otherwise, how can there be so many players to play!

The baseball field is a 90-degree fan, that is, a quarter of a circle, and the "hitter" stands at the center of the circle and hits the ball into the fan, beyond the edge of the fan, which is considered out of bounds.

Ryota Tsuchiya squatted next to Kyosuke Hojo in receiver's equipment, not to facilitate teaching, but to serve as a receiver in the team himself. Although the "pitcher" is the only NO1 in the neon baseball world, the receiver is also an important position, requiring a clear mind to be able to direct the whole court to make tactical adjustments.

"Hojo, don't swing the first three balls." He said in a loud voice.

It should be emphasized that although the two are very close, they are really not a group. On the contrary, the receiver has to rely on his experience and smart brain to determine what kind of ball he is not good at playing, and then give instructions to the "pitcher" accordingly, that is, the code.

In baseball games, it is common to see the catcher crouching behind the beater putting one hand under his crotch and twitching his fingers, which is a code signal to the beater. For example, if he determines that the hitter is a fool who hits the ball with an empty head, he will tell the pitcher to throw the ball badly, and let the hitter swing it empty and be knocked out.

That's why baseball is a combination of individual heroism and collectivism, and while an invincible pitcher can overwhelm an opponent all the time, a weak pitcher can also defeat a hitter with the help of a catcher.

"Hmm." Kyosuke Hojo didn't say much, nodded and stood still with his bat in his pose. He had already been taught the striking posture before, and he had his own understanding of how to swing the bat.

With a start, the person standing on the pitcher's mound lifted his left foot, and the baseball flew out, and the ball was very slow, because he was just teaching Kyosuke Hojo.

Kyosuke Hojo remained motionless, and his hand holding the bat did not waver in the slightest. Ryota Dotani caught the ball steadily, and the member who served as the referee behind the two made a fist with his right hand to indicate that the ball was good.

"I remember that there is a concept of intermediation in kendo, and it is important to pay attention to one foot and one sword, right? There is a similar concept in baseball, where there is an area in front of the hitter called the hit-ball zone, which is the area directly above the home plate, between the top of your knees and your armpits when you are standing naturally. ”

Kyosuke Hojo looked down at home plate next to his right foot and nodded to hear it.

"This area is a convenient position for you to hit, and my personal understanding is that although this good ball will cause cheers from the defenders, the concept of 'good' is actually for the hitter. Because throwing the ball into this area will make it easier for you to hit, so the good ball is for you.

At the same time, if the pitcher throws a ball that is considered good for you and you don't hit it, then the pitcher wins. It also completed a fair and just duel with a gentleman's degree, and that's how I understand it. ”

Listening to Ryota Tsuchitani's serious voice, Kyosuke Hojo nodded, it was indeed very vivid.

"Of course, except in this area, if the pitcher throws the ball elsewhere, it's a bad ball, and then the matchup is no longer fair, and it counts as a winner's victory. Of course, the premise is that you can't swing the baton when you see a bad ball, otherwise it is equivalent to you responding to this unfair matchup, then you are disqualified, and it is your defeat and the pitcher's victory. ”

"Come on, you decide whether to hit the next ball or not."

Ryota Tsuchiya said, stretching out his right hand without gloves and making two gestures under his crotch.

Hearing this, Kyosuke Hojo's eyes changed suddenly, and he was still expressionless, but those eyes were still completely different.

Well?!

Masaki Fujikawa, who was standing on the pitcher's mound, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the minister's gesture, didn't he say that it was good to shoot three good shots so that Hojo-kun could feel what the "strikeout" was first? Why did I have to throw a change ball on the second ball?

When he raised his head after reading the code and refocused his gaze on Hojo-kun's face, he was suddenly taken aback.

Hey, is that look meant to kill?

In his vision, he only felt that Hojo Kyosuke's eyes hidden behind the baseball helmet were glowing with ghostly fire, and his black and white eyes were staring at him with murderous intent. It was as if if he dared to throw the ball and would be cut in two, the eyes said.

Fujikawa Masaaki swallowed with difficulty, only to feel that the gloves suddenly became cold and hard, and the baseball was as heavy as a thousand pounds.

What are you kidding, but I've been playing baseball since elementary school, and I've seen people who are much more fierce than Hojo-kun...... Ever seen it?

Fujikawa Masaaki was stunned, his memory slipping by like a stream, he was sure that he had never seen such a violent murderer as Kyosuke Hojo.

I saw a lot of fights, and when I was a child, I had to fight almost every week in order to grab the venue, and I fought many times on the field. But he'd never heard the phrase "before the baseball hits me, I'm going to throw the bat over and kill the other person."

The first pitcher of the baseball club of the general Wugao didn't even dare to pitch at the moment, and his mind kept echoing the words that the minister had just said as a joke.

It's a joke. Although the minister said so, is it really a joke?

It's said to deceive the opponent, and someone in the province really threw a touch ball at me. Although Hojo-kun said so, is it really a lie?

Others don't know that the people in their baseball club have seen the scene of Hojo-kun beating dozens of people in a crowd in the kendo club. With an invincible figure like the Sixth Heaven Demon King, anyone who has seen it will never doubt that he can kill people with a baseball bat.

What that guy said, you dare to take him as a joke?

Seeing that Fujikawa Masaaki didn't pitch for a long time, Ryota Tsuchitani thought that the other party didn't see his code, so he stretched out his hand and twitched wildly under his crotch. So this is worthy of the kingdom of ninjas, and the seal can be seen anytime and anywhere. An ordinary high school student pick-up player can achieve one-handed sealing, and the power is so great that he can even control nine puppets on the field.

Seeing the minister's urging, Fujikawa Masaki nodded tremblingly, and nodded towards Kyosuke Hojo with a reluctant smile, signaling you to get ready, the little one I'm going to pitch.

Kyosuke Hojo, who was highly concentrated, was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with a smile.

it! Don't laugh! I thought you were sucking me off!

Seeing the devil's smile, Fujikawa Masaki panicked even more, so this pitcher, who has always been characterized by "being able to perfectly execute the coach's instructions", made a decision against his ancestors for the first time.

Straight ball!

For an upright gentleman like Hojo-kun, you must use a straight ball to show respect!

With a decision in his mind, Fujikawa Masaki raised his left leg and threw the ball with a movement of his right hand.

Well?

Or is it the same as the ball just now?

Kyosuke Hojo's eyes moved with the baseball, and his invincible brain quickly calculated the ball's initial velocity and speed in the direction of rotation.

The answer, a mediocre straight ball. The ball speed is around 125 and it will eventually go into the top right corner of the good ball area.

Conclusion, how far to hit? How high should I hit? Who picks up the ball when it hits off?

He held the bat as if he were holding a knife, and he was in a posture similar to that of the eight phases in kendo.

Can you chop it!?
