Although his body is very tired, and his movement is slightly stiff. But Sawamura's performance on the pitcher's mound was still brilliant and dazzling.
Faced with a war of attrition with Osaka Kiryuu High School, Sawamura was neither tense nor worried on the pitcher mound, but at ease.
This composure is very rare for a pitcher.
In the Rest area of Osaka Kiryuu High School, Coach Matsumoto's eyes never left Sawamura from the beginning of this game until Sawamura scored the third out.
"What a good pitcher!"
The current Sawamura, even though he is only a freshman in high school, can no longer be described as a good seedling. He is a very, very good pitcher.
This was evident in his pitching performance just now.
The strength of a good pitcher depends not only on what kind of balls he can throw but also on his performance in the game.
Sawamura's performance in the game is absolutely perfect.
First of all, Sawamura's physical stamina is now weak. It can also be said that for the current Sawamura, physical stamina is his biggest weakness. Being targeted at his weak points and being constantly attacked will get anyone irritated, and Sawamura is naturally the same.
What matters is, after being angry, can you turn that emotion into your pitching drive?
On this point, Sawamura has done a very good job.
Not only that, but his serious attitude also made Takahiro Matsumoto jealous.
Pitchers are a very high-risk profession. Although you can't go all out on every Pitch, you have to be serious about every Pitch.
Otherwise, a pitching error may result in irreversible results.
Therefore, the pitcher must do his job with dedication.
For every ball, you must put your own heart into every Pitch!
Of course, this level is already the standard for Ace pitchers. But even by the standards of an Ace pitcher, there was nothing wrong with Sawamura's performance just now.
Needless to say, every time Sawamura throws the ball, he even takes every forward dash very seriously. In the attack just now, Osaka Kiryuu used four bunts, three of which were fake and one was real.
Leaving aside the three fake ones, but in the real one, Sawamura's entire catching and passing movement did not stagnate.
This shows that he has undergone severe training, not the kind of young boy who only played a few games.
Not only talented but well trained.
"Magnificent."
Not only Coach Matsumoto, but those players from Osaka Kiryuu feel the same way as well.
At this moment, in the eyes they looked at Sawamura, there was not the slightest feeling of looking at a newcomer!
'This is a monster.'
Moreover, he is different from the monster with ferocious fangs like Furuya, Sawamura can look very ordinary on the surface.
He is also a good player at using his skills wisely
"No wonder this kid had the title of the Demon King in middle school. I can't imagine what it would be like for such a player to appear in middle school?"
Not to mention middle school, even in today's high school, there are definitely not many pitchers of Sawamura's level.
Not only their pitching, but their fielding is also a complete mess.
'Now is not the time to compliment your opponent.'
Superintendent Matsumoto, after all, is well-experienced, and he quickly recovered from his daze.
"Tachi, do you see it? This is the National level, this is what a National level Pitcher is. There are many monsters like this in Koshien. Isn't it interesting?"
Hearing his superintendent's words, Tachi Hiromi's face really changed.
He had a bit of a sinister smile, but his expression became even more sinister.
If a police officer comes over right now, he can be taken away without even a second thought or an interrogation.
His smile is that disturbing!
But it wasn't that he really wanted to do something bad, it was just an expression of Tachi Hiromi's happy but unfortunate face.
Compared to the physical exercise of the hell level. To be able to participate in the competition, to be able to play against tough opponents, will make him feel extremely happy.
'Games are fun!'
This is the case now, and the passion in Tachi's mind has been stimulated.
His surging fighting spirit can even be felt by the Players of Seidou High School.
"Wow!"
"With just a few words, the fighting spirit of his players has been inspired. As expected of an experienced Coach!"
In the second half of the sixth inning, Seidou High School attacked.
Miyuki was the first to start again.
Ping!
This time he did not continue his previous performance. After the ball was hit, he was caught by the outfielder.
But even so, his batting was recognized by the three Managers of Seidou High School.
"Even if there are no runners on the base right now, Miyuki-kun's batting is remarkable."
Takashima is appealing to the players she personally recruited.
Compared to Sawamura, who had already secured the top spot, Miyuki's situation was even more worrying.
After all, his opponent is much stronger than Sawamura's opponent!
When the catcher's skills are good, especially in attacking, the gap between the two is very obvious.
Fortunately, Miyuki also made progress.
President Ota also thought the same.
"Maybe because of his competition with Chris, Miyuki has put a lot of effort into batting recently. Not only did he hit a good hit, he can even hit the ball so far just now."
Not every ball that doesn't score a hit is a bad hit by the batter.
Just like just now, Miyuki obviously hit the ball to the neutral position, and the outfielder trotted all the way, ran over, and caught the ball.
There is nothing to be said.
Kataoka wears sunglasses so that people can't see his eyes. There was no expression on his face, and no one knew what he was planning.
In the competition between Sawamura and Tanpa, Kataoka has no preference in his mind. Whoever is stronger, he will give him the Ace position.
The competition between Miyuki and Chris is different. Although these two are both Kataoka's confidants and favorites, in his heart, there is still a bias.
The game continues.
One Out, no one hits base.
It's Sawamura's turn at bat.
Ping!
Almost exactly like Miyuki, Sawamura also swung the first Pitch.
The moment the bat touched the ball, Sawamura felt his arms go numb.
The ball is heavier than before!
In the latter part of the game, Tachi's pitching power has not weakened but has more power.
The ball didn't fly very far, was picked up by the third baseman, and was sent to first base.
"OUT!"
Miyuki and Sawamura, who had hit consecutive hits before, were dealt with one after another.
This made the momentum of Osaka Kiryuu soar a lot.
After two Outs, it was Shiratsu's turn to hit. After a few balls, Shiratsu hit an infield rebound and was blocked out.
Three up and three down!
This is the second time Tachi has tackled the batters of Seidou High School so cleanly.
Osaka Kiryuu's defense this time was impregnable and did not give Seidou High School any chance.
With a total score of 8:4, Seidou is still four points behind.
