In the game of Seidou High School against Yakushi High School.
After the seventh inning, 90% of the people on the scene believed that the overall situation was settled.
The Sankou high school players who came to see their old rival's game specially, summed up the most thoroughly.
"Although Seidou, like us, made a lot of mistakes during the game, I have to say that this year's Seidou is really strong!"
"Up to now, Seidou High School is still four points ahead of Yakushi High School. These four points can be considered to have forced Yakushi High School into a corner."
"If the batters of Yakushi High School can't score in this inning, looks like they will really be powerless!"
The pitcher is Sawamura, and the fielders are the elite players of Seidou High School!
And Yakushi's Batters are not their strongest top three Batters.
No matter how you look at it, there is absolutely no chance for Yakushi High School.
This point is even more clear to Watanabe, the batter who stands on the strike zone.
He still remembers that when the Coach just entered Yakushi High School, he boldly said that he would lead everyone into Koshien, and everyone's first thought was still the same.
It is impossible!
Although they can be regarded as a strong team in West Tokyo. But their level is still far from entering Koshien. Not to mention, West Tokyo is still a well-known fierce battle zone. In this battle zone, there are also the three top Giants of West Tokyo.
How could they break through the barrier and enter Koshien?
"They are human beings, and we are human beings, with two hands, two feet, and one head. Why can't we do it too? Besides, since we are playing a sport, of course, we must have a goal. As for this goal, of course, the higher the better! Don't worry, I won't put all the pressure on you, I will train you well. Besides, by next year, the players I train will also Join the team, there is also the super genius that I have trained since he was a child!"
However, when the coach said it, they were mostly skeptical. Nevertheless, he has to say that this sentence was very inspiring. From then on, the training time for Yakushi High School players has unknowingly increased.
Everyone subconsciously accepted this idea.
Their Yakushi team is going to enter the Koshien, how can they stay here?
"STRIKE!"
"STRIKE!!"
He thinks so, but facing Sawamura's pitching, Watanabe's ability is limited after all.
His swing speed can't keep up with Sawamura's pitching rhythm. Especially with the trickiness of the Wall-Making Form, Sawamura's pitching looks extremely fast, and Watanabe can't judge how the ball moves at all.
In the blink of an eye, he was chased by two Strikes!
He just entered and now will be Struck Out!
Done! No chance yet?
Could it be that he, Watanabe, came all the way here just to be defeated?
'I won't accept this! This is not over!'
'The last ball, you have to swing the bat and hit it no matter what.'
Just as Watanabe gripped the bat tightly, ready to swing.
From the dugout, a sign was suddenly given to him.
It's time to show them the Surprise!
This opportunity is once in a lifetime.
Watanabe suppressed the joy in his heart, held the bat in a short grip, and stared at the flying baseball without blinking.
Whoosh!
Because he couldn't see where the ball was released, the ball came out very suddenly, almost in the blink of an eye.
'It's now.'
He doesn't know why Sawamura's Pitch is sweeter now, and the speed is not very fast.
Even a batter like Watanabe can find his way and swing the bat firmly.
Ping!
The bat hits the baseball with precision, sending the ball flying into the outfield.
In the position of the catcher, Miyuki subconsciously widened his eyes.
'So weird, this guy is aiming for the Moving-Up.'
Sawamura's Moving-up ball appears mysterious, but if the batter can really target it, this ball is not difficult to hit at all.
In the final analysis, although the Moving-up ball has the upward rising break, it does not have any ball power and speed, and it is even less likely to be a ball with a tricky angle.
If you are really targeted, it is very easy to hit far.
Just like now, Watanabe hit the ball beautifully, and then he rushed to second base as if his life depended on it.
"Safe!"
No Out, runner at second base.
And right now, it was the turn of the seventh batter of Yakushi High School to bat.
The whole place fell into an eerie silence.
So far in the game, the Demon King Sawamura Eijun's pitch has been hit for the first time.
If the one who hit this ball were Raichi, then they would understand.
However, it is not.
He was the little-known Watanabe who hit this ball. What position is Watanabe anyway?
In the current starting team of Yakushi High School, there must be him!
Such a guy actually hit Sawamura Eijun's ball beautifully?
Incredible!
"Time!"
Miyuki faintly sensed something was wrong, and hurriedly called a timeout and ran up to the pitching mound.
"It's weird, how did Yakushi High School know that this ball was a Moving-up ball?"
Covering his mouth with a Mitt, Miyuki asked curiously.
He wanted to ask Sawamura's opinion.
"It's very simple, either your game-calling was seen through, or they caught on my Tell-tale."
Tell-tale?
"Do you have any Tell-tale when you throw the Moving-Up?"
Miyuki really didn't notice this.
Sawamura said flatly: "Of course I do! I'm not a monster like Furuya so I can rely on the speed of the ball to make the ball float. My Moving-up ball is a product of Visual Illusion, since it is like this, there will naturally be flaws. But it's the second time since I've pitched that I've been caught out."
When Sawamura threw the Moving-Up, he pressed his wrist to increase the spin of the ball.
Such an action, of course, is invisible to the Batter.
But the people in the dugout could see it clearly.
This is the surprise that Todoroki Raizou prepared for Sawamura.
Once Sawamura gets smug with the pitching, he is very eager for Strikeouts. This can be considered a little bug that has been added since Sawamura returned to the past.
To make the batter miss his swing, of course, Sawamura has to throw some Breaking balls, and the best ones here are Change-ups and Moving-Ups.
Both of these courses are easy for the batter to miss, and it's easy to get a last-minute Strikeout.
It was precisely this that Raizou saw through it, and he planned to use it against Sawamura.
"Is there a way to avoid it?"
Miyuki also asked directly.
Since Sawamura can speak out about his weakness, it means that someone has discovered it before.
According to Sawamura's confession, he must have thought about how to solve this situation.
"It's very simple, either temporarily seal the Moving-up course, or you can use it against them. Although I can't throw the Moving-up ball without pressing on my wrist, I can press on my wrist, without throwing the Moving-up ball!" Said Sawamura while grinning in mischief.
In middle school, such a situation also happened to Sawamura. It was very troublesome at that time.
Since then, he has been looking for a chance to get revenge on that team.
It's a pity that in the whole middle school era, such an opportunity has never been encountered again.
Defeating Todoroki Raizou can also be regarded as fulfilling one of his wishes.
