"Everyone may not know that Chris-kun besides me signed with a team in the Minor League two months ago."
Oh!!
The expressions of the reporters who were originally indifferent suddenly changed.
As the partner of Maou Sawamura, the limelight was all robbed by Sawamura, and Chris's performance was quite satisfactory, but not very eye-catching.
To explain here, because Sawamura's own pitching is fully mature, it is difficult for the batter to get a chance to hit base. Even if they got on base, it would be difficult for them to move forward in the face of Sawamura's containment!
When the opponent has no way to steal bases, it is difficult to have a chance to show your skills as a catcher.
The best thing about Chris is dealing with emergencies before they arise. In this way, he has very few opportunities to contain, touch out, and defend himself.
Paired with Sawamura, the strikeout rate is overwhelming, the batter can't touch the ball, and Chris has fewer opportunities to show his other skills.
On the surface, Chris also played the role of a net, catching Sawamura's ball steadily.
Of course, those who have studied Seidou High School seriously will not be so superficial.
In the evaluation system of professional baseball scouts, Chris's evaluation is second only to Sawamura and Yuuki, and he is currently the third big star of Seidou.
If it weren't for the fact that he had been injured before, looks like some scouts would have lost their temper and contacted him in advance.
By contrast, Minor League scouts are much more straightforward. As soon as Chris recovered from injury, they couldn't wait to sign a contract with Chris.
In front of the TV, many teams of professional scouts who lack good catchers, sigh in defeat.
'Another missed opportunity!'
Sure enough, the old saying is not wrong at all, the early bird gets the worm.
Right now, they looked at Yuuki and Sawamura again, and they became greedier than before.
As for Kominato Ryosuke, although he has become famous because of his game with Seihou High School, the professional baseball scout does not think highly of him.
In their opinion, it is a miracle that Kominato Ryosuke can show such a presence in the world of high school baseball. But it is only limited to high school, and if he goes further, Looks like it will not work!
At this time, there must be someone who wants to object. In the NBA, where superstars are not that tall, there are players who are 160 cm tall, is the body really that important in the baseball world?
The answer is yes, important, very important.
That guy in the NBA is only one in so many years. Why would these scouts bet their hopes on Kominato Ryosuke?
Of course, if Kominato Ryosuke is a pitcher. Even with such a height, scouts will not care about his size and future development potential. But he is not…
If you want to enter the draft, just relying on what Kominato Ryosuke has shown now is still not enough.
Although many viewers were dazzled by Kominato Ryosuke, many people in front of the screen regarded him as a star player.
But professional baseball is professional baseball, and it has its own rules of the game.
"Player Chris takes a break first, let's invite another player, he is the Miyuki player who is known as the strongest backup."
Yano said, and he couldn't help but laugh.
The strongest back-up, Miyuki Kazuya!
This nickname was not something Yano said casually when his upper lip touched his lower lip. It has its own unique provenance.
Speaking of which, before the Seihou High School match, Miyuki was sent as Chris's substitute many times.
It is very rare to know such a thing on a baseball field. Even Ace pitchers need to be extremely cautious when they need to take a break in rotation. As for the main catcher, they haven't heard that the team can play like that.
Seidou is so unpredictable!
The first time I watched Seidou change catchers, it wasn't that no one said gossip.
"You know you won't die if you don't try to die!"
"Seidou is too high on their previous wins, when they finally had a good hand they wasted it like that."
"Go on like this, Seidou…"
Before these complaints were finished, They saw all kinds of tricks by the catcher replaced by Seidou High School.
It's completely different from Chris's steady chess master style. Standing in the position of the catcher, Miyuki's presence cannot be ignored. He plays boldly with the ball, and at the same time is confident in himself, and often completes some difficult and perfect coordination with Sawamura.
After seeing Miyuki's performance, everyone was stunned!
"Is this guy a substitute?"
This Seidou is really a Rich Team.
Especially compared with his superb strength, his status as a substitute is simply unbearable to look at.
It was fine when he was in Tokyo, and Miyuki is a well-known star player in the Tokyo area. But in the whole country, Miyuki's reputation is very general. Even if the magazine "Baseball Kingdom" gave him an exclusive interview before, it has been a year since the article. Even if people have seen it, how many still remember it?
So when Miyuki appeared in Koshien, he really stunned many audiences who didn't know him before.
They couldn't understand that Seidou High School was so extravagant that such a catcher would serve as a substitute.
But the reality is that!
"This is simply the Best substitute!"
The last media reporter couldn't help but comment on Miyuki.
The comment went viral on the Internet the next day.
The Best substitute!
It is gold that always shines. Even if Miyuki only played one game in Koshien as a substitute, his fame rose very quickly and became Out of control. Now, with Chris and Kominato Ryosuke, he has become one of the star players of Seidou.
The organizer's eyes are still very vicious.
Despite the flaws in the attack, Miyuki lost to Chris in the main battle. But one thing that cannot be denied is that he does have the terrifying strength to keep pace with Chris as the catcher.
Before Sawamura joined Seidou, in the days Chris was injured.
The two cores of Seidou High School are Yuuki and Miyuki!
Because of the talk of the Strongest Substitute, Miyuki's reputation has been established in the whole country.
But as far as Miyuki himself is concerned, this name makes him really dumbfounded.
"I haven't given up competing for the main force, why did I somehow become the strongest substitute?"
He really wanted to drag the reporter who nicknamed him and have a good talk with him.
His teammates shared his frustration with him, not.
Kuramochi and Sawamura laughed their lungs out.
"Hyahaha the strongestHahaha SUBTITUTE!! Hyahaha! I can't breathe!"
"It suits you!Hahaha! It suits youHaha MiyukiSompai!Hahaha!"
'You guys are the substitutes, and your whole family are the substitutes!'
As for Miyuki, Yano had been so caring to Kominato Ryosuke before asking the question. Just asked him what he thought of the name.
Of course, Miyuki has feelings, but can he speak on such occasions?
Cannot!
In the end, Miyuki just smiled lightly and said some polite words.
At the same time, the young man made up his mind that he could not continue to be a substitute anyway.
With three games to go, Chris-senpai will graduate…
If he can't regain the main position, he has no chance at all.
Although the back number cannot be changed, there can only be one starter in the final!
That match was the final battle between Miyuki and Chris.
After introducing Miyuki, Yano keenly discovered that the breathing of the surrounding reporters became rapid.
'This feeling is amazing.'
It's like watching a film, and the next moment in front of the most exciting scene.
"Next person..."
