"Don't worry! Don't worry!!
Just keep it up next inning!!" Sawamura loudly encouraged his teammates as the Seidou players left the field.
It was as if his earlier dejection and unwillingness had never existed!
Hearing Sawamura's voice, everyone on Seidou immediately perked up. This was Sawamura's influence on the team!!
The corner of Sendou's mouth curled up, like a parent whose own child had just been praised...
"Bottom of the sixth inning, Ichidai San High's offense.

"Last inning, Ichidai San High's captain Anda, who helped his team score first, stepped into the batter's box!!"
"The changes in speed are intense, the inside and outside corners are clearly defined, and his form makes it impossible to see his release point, making the timing difficult to catch!
Though I don't know exactly what it means not to be able to see the release point!
But with clearly defined inside and outside corners plus that Changeup, a pitcher like that is already an extremely troublesome opponent!
He came in last inning and was in incredible form right away!!" Anda looked at Sawamura with wariness in his eyes.

"Inside?!

"Crack!"
"First pitch, Changeup!
The batter was completely fooled, and his stance was utterly ruined!!"
"Smack!"
"Out!"
"Another first-pitch Changeup!!"
"This pitcher-catcher pair is unbelievably bold!!
Isn't that supposed to be used for surprise attacks?!!"
"But the result proves everything!!"
"Nice ball, Sawamura!!"
"Keep it up!!!"
"You're doing amazing!!"
"Hmph!" In response to the praise from his teammates on the field and in the dugout, Sawamura calmly snorted through his nostrils.
"Seventh batter! Catcher, Takami-kun!"
"Now! It's the lower batting lineup!
Sawamura's in such great form today, there's no need to throw
