The sun at nine o'clock in the morning still looks soft.
On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura was enjoying the familiar feeling attentively.
At Yokohama Stadium, tens of thousands of spectators sat on both sides of the field, cheering for baseball.
In the press booth, more than a dozen media reporters sat there in unison, fiddling with the long guns and short cannons in their hands. Through these instruments, millions of fans across the country can wait next to television or online media to watch the game.
"Playing in front of millions!"
Sawamura murmured.
As he said that, a smile appeared on his face.
"This feeling is really nostalgic."
Sawamura opened his eyes again, and no one knew at this moment that a truly terrifying monster had awakened, and this directly detonated a legend of a national competition for middle school students.
"The second round of the Kanto Conference, the first game. The match between Akagi Middle School and Yokozuna Middle School has officially begun!"
In the first half of the game, Yokozuna Middle School attacked.
"First shot, shortstop, Nishimura-san."
Nishimura is one hundred and seventy-two centimeters tall, and is not very conspicuous in the tall Yokozuna Middle School.
But when he saw him standing on the strike zone, Feng Xiang's heart was inexplicable.
A very uncomfortable feeling lingered in Feng Xiang's heart. Seemingly nothing, Nishimura immediately gave people a very annoying feeling once he stood on the strike zone. Combining with the information collected before, this disgusting feeling in Feng Xiang's heart became more and more obvious.
Nishimura Moriki, the most versatile player in Yokozuna, is also the strongest shortstop in the entire middle school world. Speed, strike, garrison, base stealing, tactical execution ability, all are the top masters in the country.
Once such a hitter hits base, it will definitely become very troublesome.
Just when Feng Xiang was extremely confused, he suddenly saw that Sawamura gave him a secret signal.
Unlock: All Straight Balls!
Unlock all straight balls, now?
Feng Xiang looked at Sawamura in disbelief. People who didn't know Sawamura might think that Sawamura was joking when he saw a password like Sawamura. Is a straight ball a straight ball? At most, it is a change in the ball path. How can it be called to unlock all straight balls? Could it be that your straight **** are the same as the changing balls, how many types are there?
In fact, people who really know Sawamura will not make a fuss. There are really many kinds of Sawamura's straight balls.
Ordinary straight balls, slightly raised floats, and rapid upward climbs can avoid the large floats of the batter's swing. There are three kinds of Sawamura used in the competition before.
As Sawamura's partner, Fengxiang of course knows that Sawamura's straight **** are not just these three.
In Fengxiang's eyes, Sawamura's talent is unique, he is a man who can play straight ball well.
However, Feng Xiang always thought that Sawamura would wait until the situation was tense to unlock these straight balls. Unexpectedly, Sawamura will go all out at the beginning of the competition with Yokozuna?
After cooperating for more than a year, Feng Xiang was still very convinced of Sawamura's judgment on the situation. If Sawamura thinks it is necessary to unlock all the straight balls, that means it is time to unlock all the straight balls.
"Yokozuna, so strong!"
For the first time, Fengxiang had a clear understanding of Yokozuna, the national hegemon. This understanding is not obtained by watching Yokozuna's previous brilliant record, nor by watching the video of Yokozuna's game. The reason why Fengxiang felt this way was just Sawamura's attitude towards Yokozuna.
He had a completely different attitude from when he fought with Dabei and Nagano before.
After having a clear understanding, Fengxiang no longer has any obstacles to match the ball.
Crouching down, he decisively gave Sawamura a signal.
On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura nodded, and then threw his first pitch as if moving like water.
"Whoosh!"
The white ball whizzed.
On the strike zone, Nishimura's first ball did not sway in a hurry, and watched Sawamura's first ball.
Although he only watched one ball, Nishimura had a judgment on Sawamura's ball speed. From the strike zone, Sawamura's ball speed was faster than he thought. Of course, this speed is still within his range.
The key question is how to distinguish the floating ball from the ordinary straight ball.
In this regard, Yokozuna also has its own countermeasures.
With a plan in mind, Nishimura raised the bat in his hand, ready to hit.
"Whoosh!"
With little pause, Sawamura's second goal came.
Nishimura was also mentally prepared for such a fast pace, so he didn't panic.
His eyes were fixed on the direction the baseball was flying, ready to hit the ball.
I'm coming!
The ball path is the inside corner.
After making a judgment, Nishimura decisively waved his stick.
His swing was very thorough, and he was obviously very confident in his observations.
However, the result seems to be different from what he imagined.
The bat and the baseball didn't touch anyone at all, and Nishimura's swing failed.
"Snapped!"
The baseball fell straight into Feng Xiang's glove.
"nice shot!"
Nishimura looked back at Feng Xiang's catching glove with a split canthus, and then looked at Sawamura on the pitcher mound in shock.
The ball just now was hit!
how can that be?
How can the inside corner kick suddenly become the center? Nishimura was puzzled.
Father, like son.
Many viewers expressed their opinions after seeing the showdown.
"What a national all-around player who can't even hit the straight ball from the center."
"The difference between a bat and a baseball is almost 20 centimeters, and I'm also drunk. National hegemon, is that the level?"
This is what neutral fans say.
Hundreds of brothers in the Brotherhood of Scarlet Heart were only concerned with happiness at this time, while the fans who supported the host Yokozuna on the other side were only concerned with shock.
In fact, there is no way for them to explain the ball just now.
Everyone was puzzled, but Ke Zemura's ball didn't stop.
Just as Nishimura was in shock, Sawamura's third shot came.
In the face of this sudden ball, Nishimura was in shock and didn't even have time to react.
"Snapped!"
"nice shot!"
"strike out!!!"
There was no suspense, and the batter was struck out.
And it's not over yet, it's almost the same routine, Sawamura strikes out Yokozuna's second hit.
Strikeouts Two strikeouts in a row.
The entire Yokohama Stadium, like firecrackers lit for the festival, continued to sound exclamations.
Brothers of the Brotherhood of Brotherhood, dancing with joy.
Sure enough, their Sawamura is invincible, and even the national overlord Yokozuna has no way to deal with him.
Yokozuna's cowshed.
Nishimura and Yokozuna, who had just come off the second batter, had their faces ashen. Until now, they have not figured out what happened to Sawamura's pitch just now?
"Supervisor Takeda?"
The assistant coach gave them a worried look, then looked at their supervisor, Takeda, with pleading eyes.
Takeda's eyes never left Sawamura on the pitcher's mound. He looked at Sawamura with admiration in his eyes.
"What a genius!"
