Chereads / Ace of Diamond: Return of the Pitcher / Chapter 537 - Chapter 169: The Upper Hand

Chapter 537 - Chapter 169: The Upper Hand

The final double play was amazing!

Not only the players of Komadai Fujimaki High School were excited, but their few supporters, all of them were very thrilled.

"Komadai!"

"Komadai!"

Although mixed in the voices of tens of thousands of people, the voices of Komadai supporters are very small.

But in the stadium, their shouts could be faintly heard.

Komadai Fujimaki High School's momentum has risen!

This is really not a good thing for the Seidou High School players who are about to go to the field.

Sawamura Eijun, who stepped onto the pitcher's mound, was even more sullen.

"Fourth Batter, Catcher, Sato-kun."

It can be seen that Sato, who is standing on the strike zone, has a high fighting spirit.

His eyes stared dangerously at Eijun as if he wanted to drill holes in Sawamura.

This look is full of challenge.

Sawamura on the pitcher's mound didn't care. If the opponent's simple provocation made him angry, then Sawamura wouldn't be able to get far.

The duel of baseball players must be settled with their play.

Chris felt Sawamura's will.

He glanced at Sato on the strike zone beside him for a moment and gave Sawamura a sign.

'Don't overstrain and push yourself too hard.'

Sawamura predicted that Komadai Fujimaki High School's plan is to let Nitta and Hongou relay if Nitta is not regulating his rhythm.

Chris doesn't deny this. Judging from all indications, this should be the plan of Komadai Fujimaki High School.

And the plans of Seidou High School are the opposite of Komadai.

Coach Kataoka planned to let Sawamura Eijun hold on in this game to the end.

If they rush too hard, Sawamura's stamina is likely to be a big problem in the later stages.

Sawamura gave Chris a reassuring sign and then threw his first ball at the aggressive Sato.

Whoosh!

The white ball whistled, and Sato was not holding back at all and swung directly.

Ping!

Although it was the first time to see Sawamura Eijun throw a ball, Sato did not let go of the opportunity to swing.

After the white ball was hit, it landed on the sideline of third base.

Whether it was Sawamura on the pitcher's mound or Sato on the strike zone, they both were in shock.

Sawamura did not expect that Sato would swing the bat on the first ball, which was obviously inconsistent with the information they had detected before.

Compared with Eijun's doubts, Sato's heart felt like it was about to jump out of his chest.

He really did not expect that Sawamura's ordinary Straight balls would be so difficult to hit.

On the mound, Sawamura originally thought that Sato would observe a ball first, but he did not expect the opponent to swing the bat directly.

'Sure enough, this is not an out-of-mill team!'

He silently adjusted his mindset and Pitched the second ball.

Whoosh!

The ball flew to the outer corners like laser light.

Facing this ball, Sato gritted his teeth and finally did not swing his bat.

From his point of view, this pitch is more likely to be a Ball.

What he didn't expect was that the small white ball accurately drilled into Chris' Mitt and passed through the strike zone.

"STRIKE!"

The count is two Strikes, and the batter is chased.

Whoosh!

No matter what the situation is, Sawamura Eijun's pitching rhythm seems to have never been chaotic.

Sato, who was already two Strikes behind, had no choice but to swing against the ball.

The bat was swung with force, but the white ball never appeared.

At this moment, the world became bleak in Sato's eyes.

Sawamura's strong pitching and unhurried rhythm made him ignore the really famous breaking ball of Sawamura.

'The Change-up!'

SNAP!

"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"

In the stands, Many viewers were in disbelief at what was happening in front of them.

"It's like an adult playing with a child."

"The fourth batter of Komadai is too weak!"

"I heard that those powerful Batters can wait for the ball to enter their hands before swinging the bat. Such Batters will never miss the swing in the face of Change-ups."

This is a bit harsh to say but Sato, the fourth batter of Komadai, does not have the strength of a top Batter.

The audience chatted.

Of course, the people involved don't see it that way.

The contrast of the ball timing just now was really surprising.

And relying on this result to question Sato's prowess is obviously incorrect.

The reason for the result just now is not that Sato is really weak, but that the battery is working like a precise clock.

Their rhythm was fast and sharp, and Sato's attack rhythm was disrupted abruptly.

They stopped the strong batter with the good use of the rhythm alone.

Of all the high school students in the country, Looks like only this battery has such ability.

"What a horrible guys!"

"The fifth Batter,…"

"STRIKE!"

"STRIKE!"

"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"

"STRIKE!"

"STRIKE!!"

"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"

After that, Sawamura relied on a strong pitching rhythm and tricky Breaking balls.

He struck Out the fifth and sixth of Komadai Fujimaki High School in turn, and once again brought the upsurge of the momentum of the game.

"Six!"

"Six strikeouts in a row!"

"Today, the rhythm of the Maou's pitching is a bit abnormal does hot want to save his physical strength."

"You are kidding, today is the last game. In the past few games, Seidou High School has rotated the pitchers and performed well. Sawamura's physical strength has been maintained, isn't he just want to go crazy?"

"Looks like it is going to rain Strikeouts today!"

"If the Komadai does not take measures, the number of Strikeouts may be very staggering."

The dugout at Komadai Fujimaki High School.

"Do we have to make countermeasures?" The assistant coach asked.

The eyes of Coach Nitta stared like a Hawk.

"No need, just let him keep it going!"

'In a war of stamina, we have the upper hand after all.'

Sawamura's six consecutive strikeouts did not affect the morale of the Komadai Fujimaki High School, especially the momentum of the Ace Nitta.

In the first half of the third inning, it was Seidou High School's turn to attack. Nitta relied on his incomparably superb Screwball to successfully score three Outs.

Shiratsu played Pop-fly, Sakai was struck Out, and Kuramochi failed to steal bases and was directly shut.

Nitta did it very cleanly.

This kind of Screwball is very difficult for the batter to deal with. It's the exact opposite of the normal breaking ball, moreover, this pitcher has his characteristics.

The power in his pitching is surprisingly high!

This made the batters have trouble dealing with this ball.

Without enough time to get familiar with it, even the players of Seidou would not have it easy.
