'Why is the last ball not a Forkball, but a Straight ball?'
At this point, the second batter of Sensen High School, until the end, didn't understand what was going on.
Ugai Kazuyoshi gave Chris a deep look, and his mind was alarmed.
Although he had such a hunch before, but when he really found out that Chris had such ability, he was still shocked.
Chris was able to guess the intent of batters and adjust his tactics.
"It's no wonder that Coach Kataoka assigned Takigawa Chris, who had just returned from injury, to serve as the main catcher of Seidou High School, such a talented player. It's a pity that our team lacks such talent, otherwise, it will be very easy for me as a Coach."
Ugai Kazuyoshi glanced at Seidou's rest area.
"But he was promoted just after his injury. I wonder if such a player would have any hidden dangers. If there is, I really hope to find out."
"STRIKE!"
"STRIKE!"
"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"
Chris, who has the ability to read people's intentions, has insight into the plans of the batters.
After seeing the first Strikeout, an order suddenly came from the rest area of Sensen High School.
Right now, Chris already knew that the tactics of Sensen High School had been adjusted.
Putting himself in the shoes of Sensen High School, Chris determined that the opponent would aim for the third ball.
Simply, if you want to consume more of Tanpa's count, if the chances are not good before two Strikes, the batters of Sensen High School will never swing.
This is their overall strategy, and generally, there will be no big adjustment. After all, it is still unknown whether they can get points from Tanpa.
Under such circumstances, they certainly would not risk changing their established strategic plan.
Although big strategic goals cannot be changed, small tactical adjustments can still be made.
For example, the original targeting of the Straight ball can be switched to the Forkball.
Anyway, Tanpa will definitely throw some breaking balls for the third Pitch!
With this thought in mind, the second batter of Sensen High School, without hesitation, aimed at Tanpa's third ball and swung.
Although he was looking at a Straight ball, he did not hesitate to swing below the Straight ball.
Because it is difficult to distinguish between the Straight ball and the Forkball, you can only rely on gambling.
However, unfortunately, he picked the wrong opponent. Chris is clearly a better gambler than he is.
Under such circumstances, if he speculates according to the probability, he can only wait to be solved.
Under the guidance of Chris, Tanpa's performance became better and better, and even his winning shot became better.
When facing the third and the last ball, the third batter of Sensen guessed the ball path correctly but still failed to hit the ball.
Maki is not the only one who can throw a high drop Curve.
Tanpa can also throw it, and he throws it very well.
Three Outs, three Strikeouts.
In the rest area of Seidou High School.
"Tanpa is amazing today!"
"Yes, yes!"
Sawamura prepared for his turn at bat while pouting secretly.
To be honest, Tanpa-senpai is in a really good state today.
The control is precise and the pitching is sharp.
However, the most important credit for this goes to Chris, not him.
Without Chris's calling and coordination, Tanpa would never have been able to deliver this effect.
In the first half of the second inning, Seidou High School attacked.
"Fourth Batter, first baseman, Yuuki-kun."
Seeing Yuuki standing on the strike zone, the atmosphere at the scene immediately warmed up.
The name of the Yuuki was shouted one after another in the stands.
In the rest area of Sensen High School.
"He is so popular!"
Looking at the Yuuki on the strike zone, Ugai Kazuyoshi kept making plans in his mind.
To be honest, if Yuuki is not the first batter this inning, he is not advocating a head-to-head faceoff with Tetsuya here.
If you can avoid losing points, then do it.
Going into a head-to-head confrontation with Yuuki is undoubtedly very stupid.
Walking the opponent's strongest fourth Batter is also a more commonly used tactic in baseball games.
Of course, if the opponent is now the starter, the situation on the field is that no Out, and no one is on base.
It seems a little of a waste to walk the opponent's batter.
The momentum they would lose is only one aspect of this, the most important thing is that the development of the situation will be very unfavorable later on.
"In this case, you have to fight head-to-head! But you have to be very careful when throwing the ball. Try to use some tricky ball paths. Even if you throw four Ball, it doesn't matter if you Walk him."
Use corner balls aggressively!
This is Ugai, or more like the overall strategy of Sensen High School.
"When defending, try to minimize the danger. This is what a good team does!"
Seidou High School played Sensen High School, the first inning was over, and the two sides were evenly matched.
Maki's pitching is good, but the cooperation between Tanpa and Chris is also excellent.
Even in terms of performance, the cooperation between Tanpa and Chris is even better.
In the stands, Fujio Mine and Owada Akiko, who were squeezed into the corner by the Demon-King's Guard and the Brotherhood of Red Heart, looked a little embarrassed.
"Although the game is very exciting, why are we sitting here? Fujio-senpai!" Owada asked.
"What do you think will be the biggest highlight of this game?"
Fujio did not answer Owada's question, but instead asked her instead.
"Uh~"
After all, Owada has also been a reporter for a while, and her observation skills are still very keen. She just pondered for a while and then noticed the core.
"Of course an audience of unprecedented size!"
Although the match between Seidou High School and Sensen High School looked fierce, Owada always believed that the match had already been decided.
Although the performance of Sensen High School was very good, it won't go for long.
The difference in strength will ultimately determine the outcome of this game.
"Not bad!" Fujio nods!
"But shouldn't we sit away from the crowded side? If we sit on the opposite side, we can take pictures of everyone here?" Owada Akiko is still puzzled.
"You look at that?" Following Fujio's fingers, Owada Akiko saw an incredible scene.
The Red Heart Brotherhood and the Demon-King's Guard, their leaders, Obayashi, Kobayashi, and Miyamoto, were sitting together.
"That is?" Immediately, Owada Akiko was dumbfounded.
"Sitting next to them are the players of the original Akagi Middle School baseball team. Once the game is over, our first task is to interview them."
This is the real big news!
As if to confirm what Akiko said, the game changed in the second inning.
Originally, in the duel with Yuuki, the tactic that Sensen High School had decided was to use the corner balls to decide the outcome.
However, a good plan does not mean success, which is the case in Sensen High School.
Maki in the process of pitching, after throwing two Balls in a row, suddenly throws a Strike inside.
There was a subtle error in his ball control.
This is a very common small error in the process of pitching by ordinary pitchers.
Aside from a monster like Yoh Shunshin, even Sawamura couldn't throw every ball where he wanted to.
That requires extremely powerful mental strength and concentration to be possible.
And such a mistake is very fatal when appearing in front of the Yuuki Tetsuya.
PANG!
The Young General, Yuuki Tetsuya, didn't let go of the strike that entered the strike zone, he swung the bat directly!
After the small white ball was smashed, it flashed across a distance of tens of meters like lightning and appeared beside the Sensen outfielder.
Sensen's outfielder turned his head back subconsciously, without having time to take any other action, he watched the white ball fly in front of him.
At this moment, time stands still.
When baseball rebounds, the time seems to return to normal.
"OoooooooooooOoooooo!!!"
Exclamations came from all directions.
They had never seen such a clean swing.
In terms of the quality of the hit alone, this hit is not that great.
Whether it is the direction of the landing or the distance of the hit, it is not far, nor is it clever.
But it was such a swing that surprised everyone.
Because it's too fast! When the hit speed reaches a certain limit, it becomes something inevitable.
Because you can't stop it at all.
"Yuuki!"
"Yuuki!!!"
When the players of Sensen High School were stunned, Yuuki Tetsuya went to second base smoothly.
No Out, runner at second base!
