"What's wrong?"

"It's back!

Just like what you said, fielding errors allow runners to get on base, runners steal bases, putting constant pressure on the fielding, and finally the pitcher misses...!

Unexpectedly, Ming pitched with all his strength from the beginning of the first inning. This was his purpose!

And it's a good thing you could see it so early! "Miyuki replied.

"Of course, Inajitsu must have known for a long time that the opponent is Knuckleball's pitcher, as well as the opponent's fielding and hitting capabilities.

Therefore, it is also clear that Knuckleball pitchers have extremely high requirements on psychological quality.

It is understandable to formulate such a battle plan.

The white-haired pitcher and the Knuckleball pitcher, these two conditions are put together, and then combined with their defensive power and offensive power.

With so much information, you can guess what they want to do.

Otherwise, that Coach Kunimoto wouldn't allow that guy to waste his energy so willfully! "

"By the way, pitcher Knuckleball's missed shot... it's a good thing he can still put up such an exaggerated pose! How shameless!" After explaining to Miyuki, he looked at Harada who had previously made an exaggerated pose with a look of contempt.

From Sendou's point of view, after Knuckleball the pitcher misses, isn't it just throwing the ball?

There is a problem only if the ball cannot be hit.

"Mom! It's a rare Home Run!" Miyuki laughed.

"Do you think everyone is the same as you, averaging one pill per game!

By the way, I didn't even win today's game!

Home Run! "I said that, but in my heart I was complaining about Sendou.

At this time, he didn't want to argue with the other party and then feel uncomfortable.

"Ah! It's almost finished! I'll buy another bottle!" Sendou said while looking at less than a third of the juice left.

"Ah! Escaped!" Senior Kawakami said.

"That bastard drank so fast on purpose! Mi. He obviously just came back." Jun-san gritted his teeth.

"No way! I'm afraid this Inajitsu attack will be very long!

Sendou saw through this and found an excuse to leave.

For him, his goal is only Narumiya Mei pitching!

After buying a drink, you will probably wait for the opponent's attack, and then find an angle to watch the game from where you can see the pitch!

Maybe even buying a drink is just a pretense. "Senior Chris saw through Sendou's thoughts, and analyzed and explained based on Sendou's character and usual behavior.

Seidou The people who are best at analyzing and utilizing psychology and overall tactics are Senior Chris and Sendou.

Even Coach Kataoka's psychological tactics are superficial.

"Just say it! It's true!" Jun-san scolded.

"The guy who complained that he didn't like baseball very much when he first joined the club probably didn't want others to see him working hard and seriously!

Let it be!

This was the first time that guy paid attention to an opponent. "Captain Tetsu said, and glanced at Miyuki by the way.

Miyuki also looks like a bear. In short, he is a troubled boy with... a lot of things.

Senior Chris guessed wrong in one thing. Sendou really went to buy water, but it was not juice, but Coke.

I know that as a competitive player, I can't drink this stuff often and it will affect my body, but I still need to satisfy my cravings occasionally.

After all, this guy's current goal is not to become a professional player.

"Click!" Sendou opened a can of Coke next to Vending Machine inside the stadium.

"Those baseball idiots watched a whole game outside on such a hot day! How much do they love baseball!" While complaining, he threw his body on the bench and closed his eyes.

All the ball types of Narumiya Mei that I saw before reappeared in my mind.

Sendou is a greedy guy. This opponent who gave him Fighting Spirit doesn't want to give up any of his balls.

However, since it is not a catcher's perspective, the effect is not that good. It can only simulate approximate speed changes but it is difficult to simulate.

"I always feel that today's Changeup is a little different from the one at the beginning." Since Sendou was very confident in its ability to distinguish ball speed at the beginning, the focus of observation was not on this, but I always feel something strange when I see it today.

In fact, facing Sakurazawa's line, Narumiya Mei and Changeup kept the bottom, that is, they did not drop significantly.

Even when it was Practice Match, it was falling like a spiral ball.

It was normal that he couldn't remember it, and the same was true for the seniors. Those people were shocked by Changeup on the spot, and there was no second ball, so there was no way to observe Ball Trajectory.

As the simulation time goes on, the three-dimensional effect of Ball Trajectory in my mind becomes stronger and stronger. Except for the horizontal changes of Slider, which can only be simulated through imagination, everything else is reproduced.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of the stadium began to get quieter.

"Bang!" Sendou threw the can into the trash can.

"It's over! Inajitsu's attack!" He muttered to himself in the direction of the court and went back.

Sendou Narumiya Mei who went out has already started practicing pitching. It looks like the second half of the inning will start soon.

The scoreboard read an impressive eight to zero.

Sendou walked to the guardrail behind home plate and stood watching. There was no way, the place was full.

One goal after another, Narumiya Mei continued to show its strength difference with its opponents in front of Sendou.

Sendou is also constantly revising the previous impression of Ball Trajectory in his mind.

After that in the fifth inning, Inajitsu extended the score to 11 points. The pitcher finally recovered his form and ended the inning, but the score had already reached the point difference that ended early.

In the bottom of the fifth inning, it was actually the final pitch.

Narumiya Mei walked towards the court and looked back at the bench!

"Win the game!" Coach Kunimoto raised his chin and expressed this.

"Ha!" Seeing the coach's affirmation and instructions, Narumiya Mei smiled brightly and cruelly.

When preparing to throw the first pitch, Narumiya Mei, who had already raised his arms, accidentally saw Sendou behind home plate.

Seidou's team, Spiky Hair, has only one person.

"Sendou! Do you want to see my ball from this angle?

Then watch enough! "

"Crack!!!"

"Good shot!!!"

Narumiya Mei has such a personality. He doesn't mind showing his strength in front of opponents he recognizes, although he still has some reservations about his strength.

As he said, Changeup in the Practice Match period was a special performance.

Only that time there was no reservation Ball Trajectory.

In the previous life, Narumiya Mei had done this more than once. Not only Captain Tetsu, but also Furuya also developed a strong desire to win during this period and defeated his opponents with all his strength.

Naturally, Sendou will be added to this life. Not only in the summer competition, he became the starter just after the entrance ceremony in the spring. He became a blockbuster. Kanto Tournament is even more famous in Kanto.

Especially in this regard, Narumiya Mei is extremely petty. When he enters the next freshman year, he will start to have trouble with Coach Kunimoto just because the junior pitcher comes to the plate in the spring!

As if to show off, Narumiya Mei shook his head at Harada several times, deliberately focusing on straight balls, and Changeup as a supplement, showing the difference in ball speed to Sendou.

However, what he didn't know was that Sendou wanted to see Slider more...

Of course Sendou also knew what the other party wanted to show, but the white-haired man mistakenly thought that he just wanted to see Changeup...

After getting the last out number, Narumiya Mei stared at Sendou closely. Although Sendou's expression could not be seen clearly from this distance, he could make up his mind!

Although I'm sure I can't figure it out...

"Well! As long as you are happy!" Sendou also guessed that the other party would definitely make up for himself, so he whispered.

Seidou and the seniors in Daocheng naturally followed Narumiya Mei's line of sight and saw the existence of Sendou.

Jun-san, Captain Tetsu and others smiled happily. The people in Daocheng took a solemn look in that direction. It should be said that they had begun to move to join their teammates.

"The game is over!!!

Eleven to zero! Five effective rounds!

Show overwhelming strength! Inajitsu advances to the finals!! "

Not far away, the two sides had already begun to salute each other at home base, which was not far from Sendou.

"You can go back with your chest held high and your head raised!!!"

This sound attracted Sendou's attention, but he did not stop. The sound over there also began to become smaller and he could not hear it clearly. If he listened carefully, he could still hear it.

However, it is no longer necessary. The following sentence is extremely profound in Sendou's memory.

"Because you were defeated by Japan's Number One's team this summer!" Narumiya Mei's frivolous voice seemed to appear in his ears across space.

In the previous life, this sentence was just a chuckle, but now...

"Japan's Number One... ga!" Sendou whispered.

There were Daocheng fans around, so no one noticed Sendou, with a cruel smile on his face. He felt that he had been underestimated and offended.

"If we win, (let's) talk about it later!" He did not say this.

However, this voice was extremely loud in Sendou's heart.

"Ming!"

"Nice game!"

"One more game please!"

"Ya-san!"

"You're going to take us with you this year too!"

"Yamaoka!"

"Yoshizawa!"

"Vahan!"

"Mei-chan!"

"Narumiya-kun!" These two are still girls.

"Narumiya!"

"Ming!"

"Yeah!" So many people cheered for Narumiya, and this guy who loves to show off also responded.

The sound of cheering began to gradually focus on Narumiya.

So many cheers excited Sawamura.

After all, it is a special show in Daocheng!

"We! We will win!!! We will definitely win!!!" So this guy came out anyway, covering up in an instant and interrupting all the cheering sounds.

Then he made the same sound as a bared puppy.

"Rong...Eijun-kun!" Xiaochun was surprised and wanted to stop him. Furuya also turned on the gas stove, and his eyebrows and eyes also turned upside down.

"Ha!" Narumiya Mei looked in the direction of Seidou with an expression on his face.

By this time Sendou had returned to the team.

"Sawamura!!!" Double Pitcher's anger was interrupted by Isashiki's voice.

"Stop yelling! You Baga!

I remembered what happened last year, and now I am very angry and want them to come back! "Jun-san was very impressive and said everything everyone wanted to say.

"Yes... I'm sorry, Spitz-senpai!"

"Who is Spitz! Bastard!"

"Jun! Stop yelling!" Captain Tetsu said.

"Bang!" On the other side, Sendou gave Sawamura a blow on the head.

"It hurts! What are you doing? Sendou!"

"Don't bark like a lost dog!"

"Nani?"

"Competition is something that can only be proven through play!"

"Uh..., ah!" Sawamura was speechless for a moment. Seeing everyone's expression of Fighting Spirit, he remained silent and made a sound like he was exhaling.

"The winning side goes to Koshien!

Isn't this the best stage for them to return last year's performance? "After everyone stood up, Jun-san finally made a summary.

"Ah!!!" Sawamura exclaimed softly.

Afterwards, player Inajitsu left the field. Players No Compromises from both sides looked at each other while leaving the field.

After returning to the bus, Miyuki insisted on going to the toilet with the four first-year students.

Haruno, who had just learned about this on the other side of the bus, was thinking of the scene of lining up at the kindergarten to go home.

Over there in the toilet,

"Yes! There is a toilet here, go and fix it quickly!" Sawamura shouted.

"Hurry up!" Miyuki said looking at the four people at the toilet door.

"I don't want to come to the toilet with you!" Sendou said helplessly.

"Haha! Who told you to drink so much water before!" Miyuki laughed.

"You don't have to follow me!" Sawamura also replied.

"You will be lost soon!" Miyuki was talking about Yakushi Game.

This was also the only problem that Miyuki caught Sendou in. Although he knew that Sendou liked to follow the crowd when walking with others and did not look at the road, he just refused to admit it.

Although Sendou himself knew that if Miyuki did not follow and Sendou continued to follow the crowd, if they got lost, he would still get lost with them...

So Sendou ignored him and went in to solve the problem.

"Shut up! There are too many useless words every time!"

"No! Eijun-kun! You can't use honorifics." Xiaochun's mother finally pushed Sawamura into the toilet.

Miyuki was waiting at the door. When he heard passers-by say that Inajitsu would win, he didn't refute anything, just thinking about the comparison between the two sides.

"Isn't this Miyuki!" At this time, the second grader Inajitsu came.

Afterwards, the two parties had some interesting conversations. For example, Narumiya Mei was complimented by Miyuki casually and got carried away.

"Speaking of it! This is the first time that this number of people have gathered together!" When Sendou came out, he happened to hear Carlos say this.

"That's true!" Narumiya Mei said.

"That time?"

"Sendou! Are you satisfied with what you just watched? I voted for you especially Changeup!" Narumiya Mei said with a smile.

If I told Miyuki, I would definitely change it to a tone of asking for credit!

"So, what was that time?" Sendou asked Miyuki.

This question was a bit deliberate. He wanted to know the views of the person involved and thought it would definitely be more interesting.

"After we graduated from junior high school, Ming invited these people to go to Inajitsu!

It is said that this guy has been looking for players he likes to chat with since he was in junior high school!

He wants to form the strongest team in his high school. "

"Taking up a conversation...!

That's why you can't do it!

Thinking about being cool all day long, if you were more shameless, wouldn't you be able to form a stronger team for Seidou?

By the way, there is also Senior Chris! "Sendou whispered the shocking story he heard, then taunted Miyuki crazily, and finally made a joke to Senior Chris in a low voice.
