As the saying goes, if you often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet?
Sawamura and Renji thought that they had everything in their minds, and they could completely play North American players in their hands.
So they, resolutely, chose a very risky pitching strategy.
After the tricky inside corner kick, it was immediately matched with a change-up.
Unexpectedly, this ball is one of the ball paths that North American player Francis has been waiting for.
coming!
The moment he saw the baseball flying over, an incomparably brilliant light shone in Francis’ eyes.
finally come!
After waiting for so long, the hard work paid off, and finally let him wait.
Looking at the flying white ball, Francis sank, holding the bat in his hands tightly with both hands.
At this time, he had absolutely no intention of attacking normally.
Ordinary hits can no longer satisfy his ambitions. At this time, he couldn’t wait to shoot the ball directly off the court.
Originally, Sawamura Eijun’s ball not only has a fast ball speed, but also has a strong tail.
North American players have innate physical advantages. In terms of strength, they absolutely crush the island players.
But even so, none of the people who had dealt with Sawamura Eiji before dared to pat their chests and promise that they would definitely be able to blast the ball off the court.
This is very different from their previous performance.
North American players, and even all Westerners. Their personalities are generally more outgoing than those of the East.
When it comes to expressing oneself, I am afraid that two Easterners are not as good as one Westerner.
Generally on NA teams, they have a very positive vibe.
When encountering a strong enemy, they are also arrogant and arrogant, completely ignoring their opponents.
No matter if you really think so in your heart, or if you are a dead duck. As long as they can speak such words, the atmosphere of the team will generally not be too bad.
But now, when facing Sawamura. Although everyone is clamoring in their mouths, they must hit the ball and get a hit.
But from beginning to end, no one said that they would hit a home run.
Even in the team, those few batters with particularly powerful strike force. After they played Sawamura’s ball, they didn’t insist on this.
From this, it is not difficult to see how strong the tail of the ball thrown by Sawamura is?
It was definitely a presence enough to make anyone scratch their heads.
It is such an existence. If a North American player wants to hit his ball, he will hit a home run.
After thinking about it, I am afraid there is only one possibility that can help them realize this wish.
That’s when Eijun Sawamura throws the changeup.
After thinking about it, it seems that it is this kind of ball, and it does not have a strong tail.
Other than that, even those change **** with a little bit of variation.
When hitting, you can clearly feel the strong tail of baseball.
There should be no tricky **** of change. But that kind of tricky change ball, once thrown, changes so much.
Even North American players are not sure that they will be able to touch the ball.
In fact, Sawamura played that kind of ball once in all during the previous fight.
But even just seeing it with one’s own eyes left a huge psychological shadow on North American players.
They think that tricky change ball, just catching up with baseball’s change, has consumed all their energy and luck.
Not to mention, using all of his strength on his swing.
To put it simply, this thing is really difficult!
So even North American players like to run the train with their mouths full on weekdays.
None of them did not take Sawamura in their eyes when they made outrageous remarks.
Dare to say that he will be able to win a home run.
Even Francis thought it was an almost impossible task to hit Sawamura’s other **** with a home run, except for change-ups.
With infinite ambition in his heart, he naturally regards Sawamura’s change-up as the path he must hit.
So when the change-up came out, there was no shock or surprise in his eyes.
Some are just excited.
Good to come! ! !
Francis swung his bat with all his might.
At this time, he obviously had made up his mind. No matter what, you must hit a home run and blast the ball away.
Lianji, who was in the position of the catcher, clearly felt the change in the opponent.
He obviously did not expect that this North American player would still hide such ambitions.
Oops, miscalculated!
Originally wanted to come to a surprise, attack it unexpectedly. I didn’t expect to hit the opponent’s trap, this is exactly the ball path the opponent aimed at early in the morning.
According to Renji, the change-up is undoubtedly a double-edged sword.
If used with a straight ball, it can definitely directly disrupt the opponent’s swing rhythm.
But if it doesn’t work well, the other party is right at the beginning and you need to use the change-up.
Then the situation is not optimistic.
If the opponent is aiming at the beginning, the ball path like the change-up is still very easy to be hit.
Francis shot with all his strength, and it seemed to hit the white ball solidly.
In the process, Lianji’s heart was in his throat.
“Ping!”
The bat hits the white ball firmly.
Everyone who supports Sawamura and the island national team feels like a huge rock has been crushed in their hearts.
They are naturally very nervous in this situation.
That is, Sawamura on the pitcher mound and Miyuki on the stand.
His face was relatively calm.
The two of them trust their own balls. You must know that Sawamura’s change-up brings more than just changes in ball speed.
There are some other changes here.
It’s just that the change is so subtle that most people probably won’t notice it.
Of course, Francis, one of the parties involved, felt quite deeply about this change in pitching in villages.
His brows were deeply wrinkled, and his eyes were full of wonder.
It’s just a change-up, how can it sink so quickly when it’s close to the strike zone?
This is not reasonable!
This is so unreasonable!
In Francie’s heart, a storm surged up, and he couldn’t calm down for a long time.
No matter how surprised he was in his heart, the small white ball he hit didn’t fly out of the infield in the end.
It flew out less than ten meters before landing.
Francis was batting, though barely keeping up with baseball’s changes. But apparently not able to change the orientation of baseball.
The baseball touched the bat and immediately bounced.
That is, Francis’s swinging power is incredibly powerful.
So the white ball was not able to escape in the end, but was taken away.
After flying a full ten meters, it landed.
Otherwise, the ball might just hit the bat and bounce off the ground.
This infield rebound is relatively easy to deal with.
If it is Kurami, at the position of the shortstop, even if the deviation of the ball is one or two meters away.
That’s all within his range, and he can easily block the ball directly.
The average shortstop of a wealthy family, even if he does not have the ability of Kuramachi, can at least save the ball first, and then pass the first base.
The action may not be as clean as Kuramachi’s, but the overall effect is.
The result was all the same, the ball put Francis out without any issues.
“Shortstop!”
Renji felt the same way, and he called out the shortstop directly.
Because he also believes that the ball should be handed over to the shortstop to handle.
But they both forgot that the team’s two best shortstops are now sent to the stands.
The shortstop on the field was a temporary recruit who was caught as a strong man.
The real garrison position was originally first base.
At first base, the players don’t move much in relative terms. The defensive area is also not as wide as the shortstop.
At the beginning, I couldn’t see anything. After all, the baseball didn’t hit there, and no one knew his specific defensive ability, how far he could reach?
But now, the time has come to really test his strength.
His shortcomings were immediately apparent.
Faced with the sudden appearance of the infield rebounding ball, although he arrived at the baseball landing spot in time, he was not able to stop the ball immediately.
When he stopped the ball and wanted to pass the ball again, time was already very tight.
The guarding player also had panic in his expression.
Compared to the defense at the shortstop position, his passing is actually more flawed.
But in general, it is difficult to be exposed.
At this time, it’s like a magnifying glass that magnifies everyone’s performance.
Wait until that shortstop, when the pass comes.
Because he was too anxious and tense, the ball went too far.
Watching the baseball fly over, the current first baseman of the island nation team jumped up with all his strength.
He tried to block the ball into his glove.
But how can things be so simple?
Although he tried his best to take off, in the end, the glove didn’t even touch one of the ball hairs, and the small white ball flew straight out.
The first baseman hurried back to chase.
That is, taking advantage of this time, Francis ran to first base in one breath.
“Safety!…”
This sudden change made everyone stunned.
In the stands, Fujio, a senior reporter from Baseball Kingdom Magazine, sighed with great regret.
The adverse reactions on the island team’s side finally began to erupt in a concentrated manner.
The team that was put together temporarily, if at the beginning, there will be many setbacks and tempering.
Then the more problems they find, the more likely they are to be solved later.
But when the island nation team was just formed, although it was full of discordant voices, because the players were all star players, everyone’s performance was qualified.
So that at the beginning, no one found any problems with the island team.
Therefore, the island team has survived smoothly, and it has continued to the present.
It is precisely because it was too smooth at the beginning, and no one found any hidden problems and crises.
This is the most terrifying thing.
Everyone is not paying attention, and when the crisis really arises.
Naturally they were not prepared.
In this case, the team is very easy to collapse.
For example, it’s like losing the backbone.
Once the backbone falls, all the problems will come one after another.
That’s what the Island team is right now.
In fact, everyone knew before that there are many hidden dangers in this kind of temporary team.
One of the biggest hidden dangers is that all the players are not familiar with each other, which is a big problem.
Players are not familiar with each other, so there is no way to achieve perfect cooperation.
It’s just that before, the star players of the island team were too good.
Even if they switched positions, their performance was remarkable.
Let people not pick out any problems and faults.
Therefore, when the island national team was training, many people did not find this problem and hidden danger.
But now, this evil has appeared.
On the island team’s side, they couldn’t think of any good ideas for a while.
Why did Fujio sigh.
From his experience, this is also a very troublesome thing.
Don’t look at the fact that one person is out now~www.mtlnovel.com~ There is someone at first base.
But after the incident just now, the positions of the two sides themselves have changed a lot.
With such a complex scene in front of him, let alone a high school player.
Even those big guys who hang out in professional baseball, in the face of this kind of crisis, I’m afraid they can’t think of any good ideas.
And those who can come up with ideas are generally the super ace in each team.
They are strong and experienced.
Experience is a valuable asset.
As far as the current lineup of the island nation is concerned, even if they are now standing on the strike zone is Sawamura.
It is difficult to solve this problem.
Even with his incomparably powerful talents, Sawamura already has the strength not inferior to professional masters.
1
But in terms of experience, he has only played high school-level games, and has never been exposed to that kind of professional-level games.
I have never been exposed to professional-level competitions, let alone experience in professional competitions…
Fujio is not very optimistic about Sawamura’s next fate.
What happened next was similar to what Fujio imagined.
The second batter in North America, he took a bunt stance from the very beginning when he got into the strike zone.
In this case, the other party even put out a notice of a bunt.
This is almost an incredible thing in the eyes of the players and supporters of the island country.
Are these guys in North America crazy? Obviously already have the upper hand and advantage, why not completely solve the game in one go.
On the contrary, it has to be superfluous.
Aren’t these guys afraid that things suddenly turned around?
You know, in this case, once things turn around.
Then the whole situation could be turned upside down.
