Pitchers' Duel
"Isn't it really reliable for one person to pitch nine innings?
You don't have a certain level of awareness and self-confidence, but you can't say this! "Coach Ochiai sighed.
"Hmm!
I am often surprised because of Furuya's attitude and persistence towards Pitcher's Mound... (Inverted)"
Sawamura and Kawakami felt the pressure due to the evaluation of the two coaches.
Especially Sawamura, the guy who regards Furuya as a direct competitor...
"Because that guy is a Natural Airhead, so he is more paranoid than ordinary people!
If someone disciplines you, this bias alone will be enough to support you in moving forward at an incredible speed. "At this time, the voice of Sendou came from the bench.
Sawamura gritted his teeth even more when he saw Sendou having such a high evaluation of Furuya, or he was unwilling to accept that he was weak.
And Sawamura is a man with a strong heart. The way he expresses his unwillingness is to work harder.
To a certain extent, he is a more paranoid person than Furuya.
Sendou noticed Sawamura's expression. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, knowing that no matter how Nomura performed in this game, he would seek changes after the game in order not to fall behind.
Double Pitcher Only competing with each other and making progress together is the most perfect way to grow.
Whether it's Miyuki or Sendou, they both like to add fuel to the fire to two people from time to time.
Because adding anger to one person is equivalent to breaking out for both people.
After all, these two guys wanted to compete with each other even if they ate more or ran ahead.
Although the result is often that the Furuya can hold up while eating, and the Furuya can be exhausted when running.
But Furuya never gave up, and Sawamura never relaxed.
And the same goes for pitching...
Sawamura never gave up because of Furuya's apparent talent, and Furuya never relaxed and underestimated Sawamura.
"After this game is over, go find Senior Chris for help!" Sendou thought to himself after looking away from Sawamura.
Because it's Furuya's performance time now...
"Poof!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Poof!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Good shot!"
"Batter's out!"
"Coming! Coming! Coming!!!
Strike out three people in a row! "
"This monster is also on full fire today!!"
"There is no need to think about physical distribution today!"
"Let's do our best to deal with them!!"
"Come on!"
"Monster!
Let's look at the strikeout show!!! "After the OBs on the sidelines experienced the low ebb caused by line shooting, their emotions instantly became high.
"This is really a big thank you for us.
Really!
You have to be grateful for this level of talent being exposed to us! "Coach Todoroki didn't know what his mood was when he said such words.
The good thing is that Practice Match and Furuya unreservedly exposed their talents in front of them.
Let them be mentally prepared for the next Autumn Tournament and adapt to a ball of this level in advance.
"Ah haha! Nice Ball you bastard!"
"Well done!"
On the way back to the bench, everyone praised Furuya.
"Beautiful!
Today's line play is as bad as ever. There's no guarantee that this point will be the final score, so I can only rely on you!
Akatsuki! "After walking into the bench, Sendou said to Furuya who came back to him.
"Hi! I know!" Furuya agreed very seriously.
Now those seniors are all going to explode.
"What did you say? Sendou!
Just watch! I'll show you the score right away. "
"Can't you say something nice, you bastard?"
Sendou This group of people always smiles no matter what they say.
The seniors also know that Sendou's words are only motivating Furuya and spurring them on.
Therefore, the scoldings of the seniors are just superficial.
In fact, I have made up my mind secretly in my heart and must show my performance next time.
"Is this useful?" Coach Ochiai asked when the game restarted and everyone around Sendou dispersed.
"If it works, there's no need to say so much.
But those guys took out Fighting Spirit for sure.
Baseball is not so simple that guys like them, who rushed into the army in a hurry, can beat the top players.
Yaoshi's main team from the summer has been retained, and they have more than a month of break-in time than we did.
Not that easy to defeat. "Sendou put his elbows on his knees. He crossed his hands in front of his chin and spoke slowly.
"I see, is it just to inspire their Fighting Spirit?"
"Well! What we want to know now is how far this team can reach.
Although I will try my best to win, I never think about winning or anything. "
"What you just said were also meant for that Sawamura, right?"
"Did you see that?"
"A little..."
"That's true. These two have been competitors since they entered school."
"Souga!"
"However, that guy Furuya's recent state is not very good!"
"Yeah! You can feel the destructive power of his ball even on the bench." Coach Ochiai nodded while squeezing his beard.
While the two were discussing, although there were hits in this inning, the lines were still not connected.
There are always one or two hits missing at critical moments.
Then came the second game, Yakushi High School's attack.
This is also Raichi Todoroki's first appearance today.
This game will have a completely different and unpredictable outcome because of the result of this ban.
"Poof!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Good shot!"
"First goal inside corner Fast Forkball!!
It's really strong! This pair is thrown into captivity. "
"Ah ha ha ha ha!" Raichi Todoroki is still the same. The stronger his opponent, the happier he is.
"Poof!"
"Piu!"
"Ping!"
"Phew!"
"Poof!"
"Out of bounds!"
It was a foul ball, but the sand that was kicked up like smoke still shocked people on and off the field.
"This hitter is no ordinary person!" Coach Ochiai said.
"To a certain extent, he is just like Furuya on Pitcher's Mound, he is also a Monster Batter!"
"Then it's really worth watching! This victory or defeat!"
"Poof!"
"Piu!"
"Poof!"
"Ping!"
"Backbone!" Miyuki shouted happily.
However, after he saw that the figure running in the outfield was not the one he was familiar with, he realized that his core outfield was sitting on the bench.
Sendou's long-term performance has given Miyuki some sense of dependence.
This kind of ball is easy for Sendou to catch, but it is completely different for others.
"Poof!"
"Landed!!"
"Run! Run! Raichi!!"
"Ahahahahaha!"
"Crack!"
"Yo Xi!"
"Double hit!"
"Ahahahahaha!"
"That's it, you must continue to attack!" Raizo Todoroki's silly son also seemed a little complacent.
"What is that guy so proud of?"
"That's right. If you were here, you could easily kill him." Coach Ochiai nodded. He knew very well how terrifying the guard range of the guy sitting next to him was.
"I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about our captain.
That proud voice when I just called the middle hand.
That guy should learn to rely on himself instead of relying on others.
After all, he is the captain!
Learn to use existing personnel to fight. "
Coach Ochiai I feel so embarrassed!
He thought Sendou was talking about each other's father and son, but he didn't expect that they were complaining about his own catcher...
Normally, you should talk about your opponent, right?
Sendou's brain circuit, he doesn't quite understand...
"Boom!!!"
"Being beaten out!" Furuya looked at Raichi Todoroki who was laughing behind him full of resentment.
"Don't get mad! Furuya!" Kuramochi couldn't help shouting.
"Concentrate on the batters behind the opponent!"
"Don't worry! It's just that the placement isn't very good.
Just deal with him next time! "
"Is this no longer possible?
Already scared?
Do you want to change someone? Furuya!!! "Sawamura shouted loudly.
"I'm not afraid!
I don't want to change anyone! "Furuya replied in his heart.
"Poof!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Poof!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Good shot!!"
"Batter's out!"
"That's strikeout number four!!"
"Did you see that?
Just be obedient and wait there!
I won't give Pitcher's Mound to anyone! "
"Ping!"
"Crack!"
The next hitter only hit a weak Ground Ball, completely suppressed by the power of the ball.
"Nice ball! You bastard!"
"Two out!!"
"Poof!"
"Piu!"
"Boom!!!"
"Good shot!"
"Batter's out!"
"Change!!!"
"Oh!!
Only the remnants of second base remain! "
"Excellent condition! Furuya!"
"I didn't expect to see such a wonderful game!
It is indeed a fierce battle zone!
An unknown team is so capable!
This will also be more valuable for reporting! "A reporter who didn't know where he came from, but who knew from his words that he was not a local reporter, said.
As the King of the country, even if students have started school, reporters from all over the country are still appearing on the sidelines of the Seidou training ground in an endless stream.
The interviews during this period have allowed them to understand that the integration of King's new team is not smooth, or even quite bad.
But based on the fact that the team is newly built and the four sticks are no longer there, it is still acceptable and they have some expectations. What makes them excited is probably the sudden outbreak of Furuya.
As long as Furuya is here, they will never lack reporting materials.
(Mishima pitching)
"Phew!"
"Ping!"
"Crack!"
"Out!"
(Furuya pitches)
"Boom!"
"Good shot!"
"The batter is out!!"
The first three games between the two sides ended quickly, and the score was still 1-0.
Originally, these two teams gave people the impression that they were playing hard, but it turned out to be this situation.
Especially for Seidou, the line has been played for one and a half rounds and still cannot get the second point.
Now it's the turn of the offense in the fourth inning. Seidou's lead batter is six-bat, Shirazu.
"Poof!"
"Boo!"
"Forkball!"
"Ping!"
"Crack!"
"Safe!"
"Yo Xi!"
"Nice strike! Shirazu-senpai!"
"Although Changeup is good, his ball control is not stable yet, but there is still Ball Trajectory who is easy to beat!
If this continues, we will be able to hit... our fighting line! "Coach Ochiai said.
"Hmm!
If only they hadn't thought so much! "
Sendou and Coach Ochiai are almost becoming a duo, and they complete air-to-air conversations from time to time.
The two people just finished the conversation while staring at the situation on the court.
The hitter after Shirazu is seventh-year second-year third baseman Higasa. (Seniors)
Coach Kataoka has not given any instructions on wiring so far, leaving it completely to them.
"Get another point!"
"Come on! Come on!"
"Poof!"
"Phew!"
"Ding!"
"Out of bounds!"
"What a risk! It's safe to play at this time!" Mishima thought on Pitcher's Mound.
In the past, most of them were done by the batter swinging the bat.
"Crack!"
"Bad ball!"
The second ball was still a sudden Safety Bunt, but it was taken back.
"This is too rigid!
If you use this kind of surprise attack continuously, the opponent will be wary. "Sendou complained.
"Maybe they care too much about tactical coordination!
But completely ignored a lot of things! "Coach Ochiai nodded in agreement.
The number of balls quickly came to two bad and one good!
Higasa, who only wanted to hit a base hit, had no intention of swinging the bat. No matter how stupid the opponent was, he saw through it.
Use two Changeup in a row to make him hit out of bounds and out. (In the case of two good balls, if the ball is hit out of bounds, you will be eliminated directly)
"Hahahaha! I won't let you succeed easily!" Mishima laughed exaggeratedly.
"Hahahaha!" That silly kid Raichi also echoed.
"Raichi! One out!" Mishima turned to Raichi and shouted.
"One out!" Raichi was indeed very cooperative.
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
"...!" The two people left the group of people next to them speechless.
"Damn it! Stop being so arrogant, you brat!" Aso was very angry as he walked up to Batter's Box and got ready.
"Poof!"
"Boo!"
"Boo, you're so big!"
"Ping!"
"Pah! Pah!" However, the ball landed right near Raichi's glove. It could be said that it bounced directly into his glove.
"Crack!"
"Out!"
"Crack!"
"Out!"
"Double play! Seidou didn't score in this game!"
"Hahaha! Nice coincidence!" Mishima shouted to Raichi again.
"Kahaha!"
The interaction between these two guys is both hilarious and annoying to watch.
Especially the Seidou side was very angry at their proud look.
"That's it again!
Although I could get hits, I couldn't score any runs! "
"It feels weird!"
"I didn't expect that Seidou and Yaoshi, two teams known for their big lines, would turn into a pitching battle!"
The audience on the sidelines also noticed that the situation was a bit strange.
"This result is natural. After a hit occurs, the batter behind may start thinking about tactical coordination.
Unable to concentrate on aiming the ball, lack of aggressiveness, resulting in inability to cooperate and play, which resulted in this result.
He didn't even do his responsibilities well, so he just thought about other things!
Maybe this is the reason! "Coach Ochiai guessed.
At this time, Coach Kataoka glanced sideways behind him, as if he was listening carefully to Coach Ochiai's words.
