Appearing again, Kōshū looked at the empty space on the scoreboard and said, 'There are still 5 rounds left. '
"Kōshū!" The catcher shouted back to his senses, and the pitcher arranged the Pitcher's Mound at his feet into the desired shape.
'There are many traces', Narumiya Mei's footprints are left on this Pitcher's Mound.
To be honest, the game just went so smoothly that it was unbelievable, which gave him a little more confidence in his own condition.
Next, face Inami's lower position play.
'Inami's strategy is still the same, be careful not to be disturbed. 'Miyuki looked at the Inashi six sticks that were reattached to the inner corners and frowned.
'Don't worry, I'm not that guy Furuya who can't control the ball. 'Kōshū nodded briskly.
With the pitcher's nod, the catcher's glove is again placed in the inside corner.
Since Inami's strategy is still the same, then Seido's countermeasures are still the same, using constant attacks to disrupt the enemy's rhythm.
"Buzz--" The batter took the first ball, which was enough to catch Foul Ball.
"Starting from this inning, carefully select the pitch, actively hit the ball, as long as it is a good pitch, hit the ball, and try to adapt to the pitch quickly." This is Kunimoto Manager's arrangement for this inning.
The most powerful thing about Kōshū is the straight ball. It has high ball speed, high rotation speed, and heavy ball power. The most important thing is accurate ball control. The 145+ ball speed means you can hit it wherever you want. Therefore, what Daoshi needs most is to quickly hold his nose and get familiar with the ball, and then target a certain ball type to attack.
'This feels so heavy. ' The batter inconspicuously re-grips the bat, seemingly adjusting the bat, but actually weakening the vibration caused by the ball.
Miyuki glanced at the batter, mentally assessing whether the opponent had already targeted the ball in a certain direction this round, 'Are they targeting the inside corner? '
It's not impossible, Miyuki decided to give it a try.
'Inside angle again? ' Still in a similar position.
Kōshū nodded slightly without questioning. On the field, the only thing he knew was to follow the catcher's request and make a good throw.
Just grasping the accuracy of pitching is already very difficult, especially after growing in size, the highest ball speed and ball control seem to have to be chosen between the two.
There were no runners on base, and Kōshū's pitch at this time was wide open.
The linkage of muscles and the transmission of force are all so smooth.
And his full energy always makes him feel like he is like a well that will never dry up no matter how hard he digs it. Everything is just beginning and everything is so promising.
As long as he can stay on the court, he wants to continue to experience this feeling.
"Pop--" A straight ball with a high inside angle whizzed past, and the batter thought the ball was floating upward due to an illusion in his eyes.
So when he was about to attack, his body's instinct made him raise his arm and lean back to avoid the ball.
"Bad ball!"
Because this ball has obvious upward drift, it is slightly away from Strike Zone.
"Huh--" The batter breathed a sigh of relief. He simply avoided the edge because of his instinct and gained a gap for a bad ball.
'You didn't fall for the trick, so you haven't chosen the ball type you want to target yet? 'Miyuki glanced at the batter's profile from behind, and saw something fishy from the sudden look on Matsushita's face, 'This guy was just rejoicing.. '
'Fortunately,' the hitter thought, 'if the ball Inside Corner Ball just drifted up so much, it probably could only hit the lower edge of the ball, and it would definitely be hit Fly Ball. '
Now the situation is good and bad.
"Some are watching, some are watching!"
"Choose your ball well!"
"Well done!"
"Strike him out!"
The cheers from both sides were very intense, and the entire stadium was surrounded by the sound of people.
This kind of sound has different meanings on Kōshū due to different moods.
When not on the court, Eijun's shouts from the sidelines are like mosquitoes in front of the lights, making people unable to focus on the matter at hand.
Now that we are on stage, the sound of the whole venue is like a cool summer night, frogs croaking by the stream, and it has a unique and comfortable feeling.
In this mood of wanting to hum a song, Kōshū threw the third ball of the game.
'Here comes the inner corner again!? ' After understanding that Seido was still determined to attack the inside corner, the batter took a direct step and said, 'Three consecutive inside corners, I am completely familiar with your routine! '
Such a determined attack on the inside corner is, on the one hand, a trust in Kōshū's control of the ball, and on the other hand, it is also to make the hitter with such a strong desire to attack uncomfortable.
But——
Just as the batter was following the ball's path, the trajectory of the ball suddenly changed slightly in front of home plate. He felt that the ball path was a little troublesome, but he didn't have time to think about anything. The next moment, the ball had already hit his bat.
"Damn it!"
It's not a straight ball.
Only Miyuki and the chief judge behind could fully see the changes in the ball, 'Two-Seam Fastball. '
The ball left home plate, hit the sand near Pitcher's Mound at high speed, and was immediately caught by Lang Zhi's glove.
The batter's bat was squeezed by this slight change in angle, causing the ball to never fly out of the infield.
"Out!"
I kept paying attention to the pitcher's straight ball, but was finally tricked into releasing the bat by a Changeup. The running back Dugout's six-bat passed to the players behind him. "Choose the ball carefully."
At the beginning, a batter was eliminated with three balls. Miyuki just got a new ball and wanted to pass it to the pitcher, and encouraged the pitcher by the way.
When he saw the opponent, he chose to turn his back to Home Plate, raised his arms, and interacted with the defenders behind him.
"Lang Zhi, you caught the ball beautifully just now!"
Lang Zhi was still a little nervous. After being praised like this, he didn't know how to reply. He smiled in response and said, "One out!"
Kōshū then raised a finger and pointed at the remaining defensive players. "One out!"
Everyone responded.
But Kuramochi said disgustedly to Haruichi who was nearby, "What's wrong with this guy today? He's so excited."
Haruichi had an answer in his heart, but he didn't say anything.
Seido pitchers have very different styles when facing infield defenders.
Eijun wanted to interact with them a hundred times from the beginning, but Furuya couldn't interact with them more than a few times in one game. Even if they did interact, it would be with that unique clumsiness. Among them, Kōshū and Kawakami are relatively normal.
However, today's Kōshū is somewhat developed in the direction of Eijun.
'If there's one good thing about it, it's that he can finally pitch. 'Haruichi replied to himself in his heart, playing under the same circumstances as in the last game, there was no time to be happy.
After a round of interaction, Kōshū turned back to face Home Plate. Miyuki stood there, waiting patiently for the whole process, and then threw the ball to the opponent.
What was standing on Batter's Box was Inashi's eight sticks. Now he was wary of the inner corners, but he still stuck to the front of Batter's Box.
'In that case, don't blame us. 'Miyuki then placed the gloves in the outer corner.
"Three out, switch sides!"
Oh my God, I was wrong. In such a tight deadline, I couldn't help but pick up my phone.
