v2 Chapter 44： : Former Prestige (Salute to SG)

"Who do you say he is?"

Supervisor Matsumoto's face suddenly froze, no longer smiling. The first arrest in Kanto, this name rarely appears, in his impression, he has also heard of it.

The sport of baseball is the easiest to be known for, first of all, pitchers and strong hitters.

This is the same reason that in football, it is easier to be famous for strikers.

The importance of other positions may not be inferior to them, and the strength may be stronger than them, but when it comes to fame, others can't compare with strong fights and strong throws.

For example, Kanto No. 1 left caster Cheng Gongming.

This name appeared very early. There is no need to say more about Cheng Gongming's own strength, but the most important reason why he is famous is because he is a pitcher.

If he were moved to another position, even with the same wonderful performance, his fame would definitely not be as good as he is now.

In this case, if the catcher is not a strong player, it is very difficult to get ahead.

Maybe you will also have some minor fame, and maybe you will also be favored by high school. But when it comes to the name of No. 1 in Kanto, I am afraid it is difficult to convince the public.

In the eyes of most people, the catcher is a job that does auxiliary work. Even if your team is doing well, most people will attribute the credit to the pitchers. Instead of putting too much attention on the catcher.

For a catcher to really become a talent, he still needs to have professional scouts to investigate and professional data to analyze after high school...

This is the value of a good catcher.

In middle school, he made a name for himself as a catcher. Even if it didn't cause a sensation, the gold content was very high.

This is also the reason for the doubts of Matsumoto Superintendent.

If Qingdao High School really had such a catcher hidden in the snow, it would be impossible for him to remain silent for two consecutive years.

"I don't know the specific situation. After entering high school, I didn't hear much about him. I thought he would stop playing baseball after entering high school. I didn't expect to join Qingdao! "

The player who recognized Chris said hesitantly.

"How is his strength?"

Matsumoto continued to ask.

"Strong!"

"How strong?"

Hearing the question of Matsumoto's abandonment, the contestant hesitated and said with a wry smile.

"In all our games against him, we never won. Not once!"

Wisdom and bravery, the invincible Chris.

This is the origin of his first catcher in Kanto.

The hardball league is not as cohesive as the softball league. He has several alliances, of which the Kanto Alliance is the largest alliance in the entire alliance.

In the biggest league, Chris Middle School's third year as the main catcher, invincible.

"I go!"

A younger brother in the second grade was stunned.

"So fierce? Why haven't I heard of it."

The third-year senior rolled his eyes at him: "At that time, you were still on the bench, and of course you couldn't feel his strength. Besides, Chris's junior club is also one of the strongest teams in Tokyo. One. After all, the catcher is not the same, and it is a very showy position. Therefore, except for some of the main players in the same class, who have played against him, other people are not impressed by him. "

There is one more thing that the player didn't say.

People are forgetful, and after entering high school, Chris is never seen again. Chris was gradually forgotten.

Unexpectedly, in the last year of high school, he suddenly killed.

"In other words, is this player also a very powerful guy?"

A near-perfect ace Sawamura Eijun! A speeding ball rookie with extraordinary potential, Akatsuki Fukugu!

And the catcher Miyuki Kazuya who can completely lead the team! Now let's add, Chris, who was the No. 1 pick in the former Kanto Young Club?

How many incense did Director Kataoka burn in his last life to have such a good fortune?

When Osaka Kiryu High School won the Koshien quasi-winning last year, coach Takahiro Matsumoto also thought that his men were all elite soldiers.

Comparing it now, where are the elite soldiers and strong generals, they are simply rotten fish and rotten shrimp.

"It's so jealous!"

"nice shot!"

When the people from Kiryu High School in Osaka were discussing Chris, the game on the field continued.

At this time, Sawamura had already taken the lead with two strikes.

Both of his shots were very sweet, as sweet as sugar, which made people tired.

The speed and power of the ball have also dropped.

Because of the constant rushing forward, the physical strength is even more exhausted.

Overall, it felt like it was about to collapse.

"almost!"

The batter eagerly glanced at his supervisor.

This is a request to attack.

"No, it's still early. The pitcher must be completely immobile. Isn't Director Kataoka trying to test how his players can play when they are extremely tired? Then we'll do him well, let's continue! "

Two strikes behind, the batter hits the ball to the pitcher.

Sawamura opened his glove to catch the ball and passed it to first base.

Three goals! There are about 17 **** left.

The second batter, using almost the same routine, used a bunt before two strikes to seduce, and if Sawamura didn't run forward, they would bunt directly to the pitcherSawamura looks shaky. , the pitcher faces the ground, and the runner has a good chance of running to first base.

In this way, Sawamura did not dare not to run forward.

The exact same routine made Sawamura dive twice.

The batter started hitting the ball towards Sawamura.

He didn't play well, though, and the baseball went to shortstop.

"Hip-hop, haha."

Kuramochi gave a smirk, picked up the ball, and sent it to first base.

"Out!"

The two went out with no one on base.

Sawamura threw more than six, plus the stamina consumed by diving.

He is now able to accurately grasp the ball in control, not even 15.

The game continues.

The third hitter, looking at the crumbling Sawamura, thought the time was ripe.

He kept begging for orders from the supervisor in the rest area with his eyes.

Let me attack, let me fight!

"Not yet, not yet!"

In the rest area, Matsumoto Takahiro's attitude was very firm.

At this time, even Osaka Kiryu High School's own players couldn't understand what their coach was thinking.

Finally, the third hitter faced Sawamura.

After Sawamura made one pitch, he missed the strike zone for the second pitch.

The number of **** is good and bad.

The batter continued to swing the bat.

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!"

"Ping!"

"Out!!!"

Three outs, offense and defense exchange.

Chris glanced calmly at the rest area of ​​Osaka Kiryu High School.

In this game alone, Sawamura's pitches consumed half of his 20 pitches.

The bait has been cast, and the next step is to see if the fish will catch the bait.

On the other side, the rest area of ​​Osaka Kiryu High School.

Supervisor Takahiro Matsumoto's expression returned to that kindness.

"The time has come!"
