Hearing Sendou's words, the two seniors were a little surprised.
"I didn't expect you to think so."
"Seniors don't think I'm like Eijun's Baga, right?
That guy just loves baseball and doesn't think too much about it.
However, the seniors who come here all have their own purposes, right?
I want to become a professional player directly from high school, I want to go to a good university, I want to participate in Koshien competitions, all dreams must be based on achievement, that is, becoming First Team!
If there is no pursuit, studying abroad for baseball is meaningless.
Of course, except for those who just want to train themselves in a famous family!
So there's nothing wrong with taking every opportunity you get! "
"Then! What are you here for? Sendou!
Judging from your appearance, it shouldn't be any of the situations you mentioned, right? "Senior Tanba asked.
At this time, Tanba has completely recognized this junior. There is no longer a school year gap, and he is regarded as a friend who can chat and have a common language.
"Because Eijun!"
"Is that the first grader who struck out Dong-san and threw the curveball Long Toss on the first day?"
"Yeah! When we were in junior high school, we agreed to go across the country with our friends.
I originally planned to give up baseball after graduating from junior high school.
However, in the third grade the Last Summer, we beat the King team in our county.
But at Semifinals, I fell ill and collapsed!
In the end the team failed miserably and our junior high school was over.
I decided at that time that I would play with Eijun for another three years in high school, and my bat would be swung for him.
..., does it feel like a bit of a chuunibyou? "In the end Sendou felt that what he said was a bit too...
"No, it's a very touching story!"
"Thank you! I'm ready and can start at any time! Tanba-san!"
"Hen! It's me who wants to say thank you!"
"Hoci! (The dubbing in Tanba's mouth when pitching is very interesting)"
"Crack!"
"This is really a good straight ball!" Sendou said with emotion as he looked at the powerful ball.
"Ah! Tanba is in good condition recently!
Next ball! Curveball! "Miyauchi said to Tanba while answering Sendou.
"Here it comes! Tanba-san's pronoun!"
"Huixu!"
"Crack!"
Synonymous with Tanba... a curve ball!
The Batter's Box is really a very scary ball.
From the angle of the right-hand hitter, it looked like it was coming straight to the face, and turned towards Strike Zone at the last moment.
Yes, this curveball will eventually enter Strike Zone, which is definitely a terrifying magic ball!
Even at the end, Sendou instinctively turned his head back very quickly and took a step back because of the sudden incident.
But not to the extent that he didn't retreat in a panic and lose his balance like other first-year Practice Match.
Sendou doubted that Tanba-san aimed at the batter's face, right?
Even if you know how to throw this kind of ball and know its trajectory, most hitters won't dare to shoot it!
Human beings have a natural instinct to dodge, plus if they miss the shot, they will really get hit in the head. If they don't dodge, they will be directly slapped in the face...,
The ball speed of Tanba is not low. The hard ball made of solid wood chips is almost the same as the solid wood ball. If hit in the face, it will basically be disfigured.
In other words, if the hitter misses the ball and still treats it as a curve ball... it will be a tragedy.
However, it has to be when Tanba is in exceptionally good form that the curveball will hit his face by such a large margin.
But even at normal times, the curveball gap is very large.
Seeing this goal, Sendou wanted to get the helmet...
"What a terrible ball. To be honest, it's the first time I feel like I'm a left-handed hitter. It's great... I thought I was going to get slapped in the face just now!" Sendou and Miyauchi complained.
"You were just scared when I saw it for the first time!
You guys, if you get used to it in advance, I'm afraid it won't let you regress! "Miyauchi-senpai exposed Sendou ruthlessly, not wanting to admit that he was scared.
"But I'm serious about saying it's a magic ball.
With such a large range, even if the hitter can stay still, it will be difficult to hit easily! "Now that it has been exposed, Sendou can only admit it.
"By the way, Tanba-san, where did you aim to throw this curveball?"
"Hmm..." Tanba was speechless.
"No way?" Sendou muttered softly when he saw this, and then swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Hearing Sendou's muttering, Miyauchi was also startled. To be honest, everyone in Seidou only knew that this curveball was very powerful, but no one had ever thought about where Tanba was aiming to throw it.
Now Miyauchi is a little scared.
"Tanba-san isn't aiming at my face to throw the ball, is it?" Sendou still expressed his guess.
"Hmm..., it's not as dramatic as aiming directly at the face."
Okay, it's real!
At the same time, Sendou deeply admires those right-handed hitters who have beaten Tanba. They are not afraid of missing shots to do this?
But when I thought about it, I understood that they were all wearing helmets. Hitters who were slow to react or hitters who were seeing them for the first time, such as those first graders tomorrow, would basically avoid them.
As for high school hitters, hitting the helmet is nothing more than a Hit-by-Pitch that is not dangerous but slightly painful.
After all, this is not a straight ball, it does not hurt the batter through the helmet, and it has such great power.
But in the final analysis, the incident of hitting someone was just Sendou's own thinking. In fact, Tanba has never had such an instance happen.
In the final analysis, it is psychological pressure, but it is also very difficult for high school students to overcome this psychological pressure.
But, with the current intelligence tactics being so strong, the famous teams are probably all aware before the game.
Moreover, Tanba's previous mentality was not good. If a curve ball was blown up, it would become a hitable straight ball.
In this way, naturally no one will think so much like Sendou.
To be honest, Tanba is really an extremely troublesome pitcher if he doesn't have any psychological problems.
It can be seen from the fact that he was able to suppress Inajitsu in about one round with Fighting Spirit when playing with injuries when his straight ball had flaws due to the blank period.
If there is no problem with the straight ball, now that the curveball has reached its peak, it will be really difficult for the hitter to deal with it after learning Forkball to focus on sharpening the straight ball.
"That curveball, let a catcher who knows how to use it to scare people guide..." Sendou looked thoughtful at the curveball.
The picture Sendou imagined was so beautiful. During the official competition, even Miyuki didn't have such a bad taste.
Moreover, Miyuki is a good kid in a certain sense (with an upright game mentality), but he never thought of such a frightening way to shake the batter.
Even if you use Inside Corner Ball to force the batter away, you don't match the ball with the intention of actually hitting him!
If it is Sendou with the ball, he will first use a bad ball with a high inside angle, and then use this curve ball to deter the batter.
Of course, this kind of ball is also meant to scare the batter. It can be regarded as a bad joke or psychological warfare. Sendou cannot really deliberately hit an innocent person.
This kind of match-up is indeed a bit harsh, and may even scare the batter out of a heart attack. If it is a Major League game, it is estimated that there will be a group fight as soon as this kind of match-up is released.
This is also the second difference in behavior style between Sendou and Miyuki, although their personalities are very similar. Sendou is really a ruthless person sometimes.
Sendou is very scary when he is provoked or when something makes him act extremely paranoid.
He is gentle but that doesn't mean he is weak at all. Gentleness also depends on the person.
For example, if Sawamura Inajitsu fights against that Hit-by-Pitch, the next hitter makes Sawamura a little soft, and the next hitter is still close to Home Plate, Sawamura is afraid of hitting someone and hurting others.
If the same situation occurs, Sendou's character will definitely hit the chest with an inside angle, and it will be an offset bad ball!
He will be so strong that he even targets people to a certain extent and forces them to retreat.
Although it doesn't really hit anyone, it is enough to give the attacker such an illusion.
In that situation, whoever retreats loses. If the opponent has an attitude that he would rather touch God than get on base, then the pitcher should have an attitude that he would rather touch the body without affecting the ball control.
Although you may not necessarily shoot the inside corner right away, you will never be lenient when you should shoot the inside corner.
In this situation, the batter must be avoiding the ball. A batter who would rather get on base than touch the ball will have his body's instinct force him to hide when he really thinks that the ball will hit him.
A hitter with this kind of attitude is a bit excessive, or bullying.
No matter what Sendou was thinking, Miyauchi-senpai was a little scared at this time, and Tanba-san scratched his face with his right index finger a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter! Tanba-san has probably never hit anyone before, right?
In the final analysis, this is just a figment of our minds, and we are just scaring ourselves. "Sendou saw Tanba like this and helped him out.
"That's true. When Tanba missed a pitch in the past, the curveball would turn into a weak, hittable straight ball."
"Miyauchi!" Well, Tanba could only be anxious about his teammate's behavior of exposing his shortcomings.
However, after such a conversation, the relationship between Sendou and Senior Tanba became very good.
After the relationship between the three of them became harmonious, the practice atmosphere became a little more relaxed.
Recently, Tanba has been in really good shape. Sendou, who has not yet fully adapted to the high school level, thinks that if he were guided by Black-bellied Glasses, it would be difficult to deal with Tanba in this state.
This kind of thing is also relative. If Miyuki knew what Sendou was thinking, he would also tell him. Facing a monster like you, I also think it is very troublesome to match the ball!
After all, Sendou's shots are almost indistinguishable from good to bad. Instead, he feels that he can hit all the straight balls and does not aim at any ball. This kind of hitter is also the type of hitter that Miyuki hates the most.
It can be said that there is no way to start. You can't hit all the seats and get all the balls Changeup, right?
If you do this, the pitcher's burden will be extremely heavy, and Changeup will probably lose control and be blown away at the end of the game.
In this era where the ace has been beaten, substitute pitchers can withstand the pressure, and there are really only a handful of substitute pitchers who are called upon in times of crisis.
The current Sendou is like a shit-trouble. It's not that he can't be solved, but Sendou has self-awareness and decided to give up Changeup as much as possible before adapting to the high school rhythm. Any pitcher will find it troublesome.
What's more, he also has the miraculous skill of hitting the ball into a foul ball.
However, this magical skill will affect his shooting touch on straight balls at this stage, and he doesn't like it very much.
Of course Seidou everyone knows that when this monster completely adapts to the rhythm of high school, it will usher in a qualitative leap. No one knows what level it can reach by then.
The three of them chatted and the training time passed quickly. Finally, at 10:30, they returned to the dormitory soon. After all, the two seniors had a game tomorrow.
Sendou is on vacation, and it is impossible for him to go to practice more. He is very free, so he decided to shoot Sawamura's "documentary" tomorrow.
Sunday, the two seniors immediately went to the dormitory early. After all, they had to go to the stadium in advance to change clothes and warm up, and then get the feeling of the game.
Sendou only had to wait for the game to start. After getting up, Sendou was even thinking about what to wear...
Sendou wants to wear casual clothes. After all, he is resting.
However, if you wear casual clothes and get targeted by that Sunglasses Uncle, the consequences are no joke.
In the end, Sendou was determined to wear spike shoes and training clothes before going to Sports Field...
He brought a folding chair with him as he didn't want to dirty his training clothes without training and have to wash them one more time.
"Sendou, that bastard, disappeared as soon as the holidays came. He didn't practice independently at all!
I won't lend him shoujo comics next time. (It smells so good?) "What Sendou didn't know was that two hours ago, Jun-san, who was masturbating, was already full of... Can that be called resentment?
Anyway, he was just extremely angry. Even though Miyuki came to train, he just planned to go to the game after a while.
When Sendou arrived at the stadium, it looked like the game would start soon.
Because he saw that people on the court were already warming up.
Miyuki hasn't been seen yet, but there are quite a few spectators, including reporters and OBs, but filming is not allowed here. There are also many OBs saying hello to Sendou.
Sendou is so popular.
After a brief glance at both sides, what should I say?
The second and third graders looked like they were about to eat someone, and the first graders all looked like frightened hens.
And it seems they haven't realized the opportunity this game represents.
There is nothing we can do about it. Although we also want results in junior high school competitions, due to the limitation of continuous shooting, winning depends not only on strength but also on luck.
It's not as hard as high school, and since they are all freshmen, they haven't even entered the second army, let alone the cruel competition of First Team.
There was no sense of crisis, just like Yamaguchi, and Aso were in their second year in the fall, and they realized that they had been left far behind, and they really felt a sense of crisis.
"Yo!" Sendou greeted Sawamura on the sidelines.
"It's so slow! The game is about to start!" Sawamura hasn't realized that the main players are taking a break.
After all, there are a large number of First Team members on the bench, and Sawamura at this time does not have the ability to distinguish the main players.
"This hasn't started yet!" Sendou didn't refute.
After arriving at the stadium, go directly to Bullpen to open the folding chairs and find a place to sit down.
Sawamura didn't pay too much attention to Sendou. After all, the two of them were already very familiar with each other. Even if they didn't say a word next to each other, no one would feel any sense of violation.
At this time, the coach walked to the middle of the court carrying the referee's protective board.
Ask for votes before going to bed.
By the way, I suddenly remembered, I posted a cartoon picture of Furuya people watching in the cafeteria in the discussion circle. The seniors really don't look like good people, they look like gangsters...
Also, it was said before that Sendou knew Tojo, but I changed this. I didn't know that Tojo and Kariba were from Class A before.
I forgot to mention these two for two days in a row.
