'In this case, we have to be cautious with the next ball.'
Second Pitch: Inside corner, a Straight barely in the strike zone!
Although Chris has the skill to understand people's intent, he is not a telepath, so it's impossible to really know what the other party is thinking.
His ability to understand people's intentions is the same technique as those psychologists who guess the other's psychology based on their micro-expressions and small movements.
Of course, this technique has its limitations and accuracy.
In order to improve the accuracy as much as possible, it is necessary to obtain more reference materials. If you want to get more reference materials on the field, you need to make tests.
Because Sawamura can get Strikeouts, his pitching rhythm is relatively strong.
Therefore, everyone may think that most of the balls are thrown in the strike zone.
This kind of thinking is not right, on the contrary, the Balls also have their application skills. Even the Clock Work monster Yoh Shunshin used a lot of Balls when he pitched.
As a qualified catcher, Chris can certainly use the Ball flexibly to make layouts.
Tanpa on the mound did not have any doubts about Chris's game calling.
His cooperation with Chris is much higher than that with Miyuki.
On the surface, it seems that Chris is indeed a lot better than Miyuki, but the real situation is not the case.
The reason why the cooperation between Tanpa and Miyuki was not high enough, is not entirely Miyuki's responsibility, it's also related to Tanpa's personality.
The same is true with Balls. When Chris calls for them, Tanpa thinks that there must be some reason for Chris to do this.
On the contrary, if it was Miyuki who gave him the same sign, Tanpa's thought is not necessarily the same.
He sometimes thinks that this is because Miyuki didn't trust him enough, so he did this on purpose.
Whoosh!
The white ball whistled.
Maki, who was already behind by one Strike, did not want to fall behind by two Strikes and be chased by the battery, and sure enough, he swung at this ball.
Ping!
After the white ball was hit, it flew out of bounds.
"FOUL!"
Maki on the strike zone has an ugly face.
He thought he was sure to hit this ball.
In the position of the catcher, Chris gave Maki a deep look.
Through Maki's performance just now, he learned what he needs to know.
The swing just now was aimed at the Straight ball, not the Forkball.
So Sensen are targeting the Straight ball.
In the rest area of Sensen High School, The face of Coach Ugai Kazuyoshi was slightly angry.
"Don't swing at a pitch that's obviously a Ball. If you do this, you will reveal our intentions."
Right now, he only hoped that the Players of Seidou would not be aware of the path of the ball they were targeting.
Two Strikes, no Ball!
For the final third ball, the sign that Chris gave to Tanpa, was a high drop Curve.
The ball that had just been hit a Home run, he threw it against the same batter twice without any hesitation.
'This way of game calling is really different!'
Tanpa felt that the small universe in his body was about to explode.
Whoosh!
He almost exerted his strength and threw the ball fiercely.
Whoosh!
On the strike zone, Maki's face was ugly.
'The last ball was not a Straight ball.'
But now, he has been chased by the count, and he has to swing the bat for this ball.
Buzz!
The bat was swung Out, and the small white ball was like a Pixy, precisely dodging the swing of the bat.
SNAP!
"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"
On the strike zone, Maki's face was deeply frowning.
It's a pity that no one will pay attention to his mood.
"Tanpa!"
"Tanpa-san!!"
In the stands, the second string team, and the rest area of Seidou High School, in all directions, one after another, resounding slogans sounded.
Everyone is applauding for the reinvigorated Tanpa!
Only a very small number of professionals can see who the real hero in this is.
In the rest area of Seidou High School.
Miyuki stared at Chris in the position of the catcher intently, and a huge wave rolled over in his heart.
As expected of Chris-senpai!
Originally, he thought that his level had caught up with Chris, but now it seems that he may still be a little behind Chris.
At least in this aspect of insight into the psychology of batters, he is far inferior to Chris.
One Out, no one gets on base!
"Sixth Batter, outfielder, Hino-kun!"
The game continued and it was Hino's turn.
"STRIKE!"
"STRIKE!"
The first ball with a high drop did not swing the bat, and the second ball with the same high drop did not swing the bat.
Right now, Hino's stance was like he had completely given up and would swing at the high-drop curveball.
For the third ball, if Chris continued to match Tanpa with a high-drop Curve, it would not be a problem to Strikeout the opponent.
But he didn't really do that, but on the third ball, with a Ball to the outside corner.
Although this Ball was really bad, Hino, who had been chased by two Strikes, still swung the bat and hit the ball out.
Ping!
The small white ball flew high and fell out of bounds.
SNAP!
Outside the bounds, Tetsuya has long been waiting for the landing spot of the baseball.
"OUT!"
No one hit the base with two Outs, and it was Sensen High School's seventh batter's turn.
Ping!
The same is the first two balls, without swinging the bat and hitting the ball in the third ball.
For the first ball, Chris asked for a Straight ball.
Tanpa didn't get the ball into position exactly as Chris wanted.
This ball became a relatively big Ball!
Such a big Ball, the batter of Sensen High School, of course, can't swing.
The second ball is another high drop Curve.
After the count was one Strike and one Ball, Chris gave Tanpa a sign for a Straight ball to the inside corner.
After the white ball was hit, it landed on the third base area, in Masuko's Mitt.
Three Outs, offense and defense exchange.
In the rest area of Sensen High School.
A few players with relatively low mentality have begun to lose their morale.
"Too unlucky, until the end, there was no Straight ball that was easy to hit!"
Coach Ugai Kazuyoshi was taken aback for a moment.
Because he didn't find a lot of Straight balls in Chris's game calling.
The opponent deliberately avoided it, avoided the Straight ball!
Now the game calling is completely based on the high drop Curve as the core of the game calling.
This is bad~
"In the rest area of Seidou High School just now, did Kataoka-san give a sign?"
Hearing the question of his own supervision, Sensen's assistant coach shook his head.
"No!"
No?
Coach Ugai opened his eyes in surprise and glanced at the rest area of Seidou High School.
It's scary!
He had never imagined that the current Seidou High School would be such a team.
'These players can think and act by themselves!'
