v2 Chapter 18: : Sawamura Eijun's big screenplay

In the second half of the seventh inning, the score was 0:0.

The situation is one out, no one on base.

The blow was Sawamura's turn.

At this time, Sawamura is actually very eager to have the ability to have a super long shot, so that he can blast Ken Uesugi's ball out like a bombardment.

Goodbye home run!

It's cool to think about.

In that case, it is enough to give the game a perfect rest.

But reality is reality. With his current thirteen-year-old body, the possibility of hitting Uesugi's bullet ball with a home run is almost equal to zero. Unless Uesugi misses the shot, there is no way for Sawamura to sweep the ball so powerful off the court.

The baseball field is full of battles of wits. But sometimes, the gap in strength is even more cruel, and what you can't do, you can't do.

Sawamura has hit a lot of home runs, but most of his opponents are shrimp soldiers and crab generals. A pitcher with real power, it is impossible to hit a home run with Sawamura's current strength.

Knowing this, Sawamura still showed a long fight.

The bat in his hand was raised high, and Sawamura's posture was wide open. Although there was no announcement of a home run, he wanted to hit a home run from the posture.

"Has the jar been broken?"

The catcher Yamanaka Shikanosuke seemed to see through Sawamura's heart at this time.

To be honest, don't watch this game Sawamura makes Yokozuna disgraced, but Yamanaka himself actually admires Sawamura very much. Anyone who has seen Sawamura pitching can't help but marvel at Sawamura's pitching.

As a catcher, Yamanaka naturally has this kind of plot, even more serious than others.

Yamanaka admired Sawamura very much, and at the same time felt sorry for Sawamura. Now, seeing Sawamura desperately trying to hit a home run, he didn’t laugh at Sawamura’s self-control, but more for Sawamura. sorrow.

With Sawamura's strength, there is no way to bring the Akagi team to victory.

How pitiful his teammates are!

If Sawamura was replaced by a group of teammates, he would definitely be more brilliant.

But unfortunately, we are not teammates, but opponents. So, sorry!

Having made up his mind, Yamanaka gave Uesugi a secret signal.

Uesugi nodded silently and threw the baseball in his hand.

"Whoosh!"

The white ball quickly shot to the top of the home plate.

On the strike zone, Sawamura's eyes never left Uesugi, and when he saw the baseball flying, he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

The bat in his hand was held short. Sawamura, who used to have a long-hitting grip, turned into a normal-hitting batting grip.

"Ping!"

The small white ball flew out after being hit.

This shot, Yamanaka didn't want to reluctantly strike Sawamura, but with Sawamura's striking skills, that's not realistic.

He was trying to seduce Sawamura to swing the bat, and then rely on the defense to get the number of eliminations.

So this shot is not tricky, but if Sawamura hits a long shot, there is a small chance of hitting a high fly.

Sawamura held his bat short, and even though he couldn't hit a home run against an unsophisticated bullet, he could pull the ball precisely in one direction.

Now, that's it, he pulls the ball to third base with precision.

"Snapped!"

The small white ball landed at the feet of the third baseman of the yokozuna and passed through.

Yokozuna, who had thought Sawamura was going to hit a long fight, was caught off guard.

The white ball that goes through the foot of the third base forms a long hit.

Sawamura ran to second base in one breath.

Once out, there is someone at second base.

In the position of the catcher, Yamanaka looked in admiration.

Even in his opinion, Sawamura's second base was useless. But I have to say that Sawamura did a really good job this time.

First he deceived himself, and then he hit the ball out of nowhere.

Most importantly, his superb pulling technique of pulling the outside corner kick to the third base side is also impressive.

At the same time, he also noticed that Yokozuna's third baseman was the weakest link in Yokozuna's defense.

It's not that Yokozuna's third baseman is really weak. If he can become the main force of Yokozuna, he will not be weak. It is only compared to the star player Otomo of the first baseman, the captain of the second baseman Yokozuna, Uesugi, one of the twelve kings of pitchers, and the shortstop Nishimura Moriki, these super players.

Yokozuna's third baseman is a little unremarkable.

If someone else in the infield is replaced, it may not be impossible to stop the shot Sawamura hit, and the third baseman is a little worse.

Sometimes, this point represents two completely different levels of strength.

Sawamura's striking skills, insight, and acting skills in this attack are truly amazing.

"But unfortunately, in baseball games, it is useless to be strong alone."

Shikanosuke Yamanaka smiled in his heart, no longer thinking about Sawamura, but concentrated on dealing with the two batters after Akagi.

"Fifth, second baseman, Nobu Nakagawa."

Before Nakagawa stepped into the strike zone, he listened to Sano's decision to make a substitution.

"Akagi Middle School replaced the substitute, and the fifth player, Nakagawa, went off and replaced the substitute Matsumoto Jun."

Replacement play, now!

Yamanaka watched in disbelief as he stepped into the strike zone, Matsumoto Jun, who didn't look strong at all.

Still in first grade!

He glanced at Akagi's bullpen in disbelief.

Are you kidding me?

Others don't know, we still don't know what team Akagi is? To put it bluntly, Akagi is Sawamura's one-man team. Besides Sawamura, Feng Xiang Ouichi is also a bit of a spectator.

The other hitters, whether it's Oda Bensheng or Yamaguchi Ken, have some strength, but want to hit Uesugi's ball, it's not enough to watch.

Not to mention other hitters!

At this time, it is possible that you have more batters than Oda and Yamaguchi? There really is such a batter, with Akagi's strength, there will be willing to let such a player squat on the bench.

"bluff!"

There is a calculation in the center of the mountain, and a secret signal is given to Uesugi.

You don't have to mess around, just follow the original rhythm.

Uesugi nodded silently.

Wait, no!

Yamanaka woke up suddenly. Why did his attention go to the batter? Shouldn't he be paying more attention to the runner at second base?

He's in the scoring circle now, and as soon as he steals a base, he's on third.

If the situation becomes one out, there will be someone at third base.

Then Akagi can completely use the method of forced scoring to get a point.

Thinking about it, Yamanaka subconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.

"Sure enough, I can't take this guy Sawamura lightly at any time, and I almost got it."

Self-confessed to read Sawamura's script Yamanaka immediately gave the third baseman and shortstop Nishimura and the second baseman a code.

The second baseman stepped back from his fielding position and returned to second base. (The second baseman's normal fielding position is directly behind the pitcher and first baseman.)

The third baseman also stepped on third base.

At this time, Yokozuna's second baseman, third baseman and shortstop were equivalent to surrounding Sawamura with a big triangle.

"no chance!"

Sawamura didn't dare to leave the base too far now, he closed his eyes in despair.

In the position of the catcher, Yamanaka smiled knowingly.

In this way, all dangers are eliminated.

On the second base, with his eyes closed, Sawamura played another script in his heart.

"It's up to you whether you succeed or not!"
