Thanks to the cover of the second game, Sawamura can continue to use the quirk ball to mess around.
This is similar to the pitching rhythm of Sawamura Eijun's previous life. When no one hits base, he uses a quirk ball to get the number of outs. Once someone hits base, he immediately switches to a clear changing ball.
Eijun Sawamura has maintained this rule for many years in his previous life, and is very familiar with it.
Later, the main reason for switching to the three-strike opponent mode was that the opponents were too weak, and Sawamura could toss them in different ways. When it comes to professional baseball, especially the major leagues, it is impossible for Sawamura to be so blatant in the face of those monster hitters.
That's like courting death!
Considering the possibility of a play-off, Sawamura had to retain more physical strength. At this time, the cover of Kuramochi and Ryosuke Kominato became worth a thousand dollars.
Silently relieved, facing the troll's third stick, Sawamura threw the oddball again.
Lady Luck didn't completely abandon him, and the quirk ball didn't turn into a good 'sweet ball'.
"Ping!"
Although the third bat of Troll Otomaki High School hit the ball, it didn't hit well, and the ball was not taken out, but landed in Sawamura's glove.
Sawamura unhurriedly passed the ball to the first base, which seemed to be very easy.
"Snapped!"
"Out!"
Three outs, offense and defense exchange.
Amid the applause and cheers of the audience, Sawamura returned to the rest area of Qingdo High School.
At this time, Sawamura seemed very calm, and he was very at ease. This was of course intentional. Although the players of Qingdao High School were still relatively calm, the experienced Sawamura could see that everyone was very nervous.
The later in the game, and the closer it gets to dominating the country, the more nervous Qing Dao's reliable teammates will be.
In the final analysis, most of them have no experience in the top national competitions, and the smooth sailing is good. If there are twists and turns in the middle, their coping experience is obviously insufficient.
The more calm Sawamura behaves at this time, the greater the impact on everyone.
Unlike Qingdo, although these Hokkaido troll players did not have any great achievements in high school, most of their players came from Qingzhong Middle School, which was a frequent visitor to national competitions and once competed fiercely with the Akagi Middle School baseball team. .
Experience-wise, especially in deadlock situations, how to keep their mentality, they did a great job.
This is not the most important, the most important thing is that troll players are fundamentally different from Qingdao players.
Troll players, to a certain extent, receive the education of 'chess pieces'. They are just following the orders they supervise Nitta, so what they have to do is relatively simple.
Just listen to the supervisor!
The athletes of Qingdo are different. Although the supervision of Kataoka is strict, after the players have passed the initial basic training, Kataoka will let the players act according to their own judgment.
Relatively speaking, Qing Dao players are under more pressure than troll players.
Starting from the seventh round, including the captain and master Chris, everyone in Qingdao didn't have many smiles on their faces.
It was Sawamura who discovered this, so he deliberately slowed down the rhythm and showed a gesture of ease, so that everyone would not be so tense.
What he does is covert, but there are always people who know the goods on the spot.
in a corner of the auditorium.
The unshaven middle-aged man flashed a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Some people seem to be born to be the protagonists of life, and Sawamura is like that. Although he is only a freshman in the first year, when faced with possible crises, he is much calmer than his seniors.
Not only did he discover possible dangers, but he even came up with countermeasures.
"It's amazing!"
Among the players of the same age, I am afraid that only Sawamura can have this calmness. Sure enough, the nickname of the Great Demon King is not for nothing.
The game continues.
In the first half of the eighth inning, Qingdao High School attacked.
At this time, the batter of Qingdao High School took the eighth turn, Baizhou.
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"strike out!"
In the face of Bai Zhou, who was hitting a steady blow, Ben Xiang turned on the crushing mode and directly struck him with three goals and three strikes.
There is nothing to say about this. Baizhou's strength itself is not a big problem. The problem is that he is a little worse than Benxiang.
In this matchup, Baizhou himself was also a big blow, allowing him to see the huge gap between himself and the top players in the country.
Knowing the shame and then being brave, when he faced the troll again, Baizhou gave the township a big gift. Of course, this is a later story, and we will not mention it for the time being.
After Baizhou was struck out, Itai didn't ask for anything, and was also struck out.
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"strike out!!!"
Two strikeouts in a row directly stunned the players of Qingdao, and they rarely encountered this kind of treatment. They used to be Sawamura's constant strikeout opponents, and they were watching the play on the sidelines.
I didn't expect that I would be treated like this now.
Two outs, no one on base.
"First shot, shortstop, Kuramochi-san."
At this time, Kuramochi stood on the strike zone.
This is already the second round he has played against Hongo, and now Kuramochi has a more intuitive understanding of Hongo's pitching.
But knowing a lot, he didn't help Kuramochi figure out a way to restrain his hometown.
Over 150km ball speedaccurate ball control, as well as sharp forkballs and sliders.
If it wasn't for the guy standing on the mound of the opponent's pitcher not giggling, Kuramochi would have thought that he had run into Nagiya Ming for the second time.
"These monsters are all out of that. Let's not let people live?"
For such an opponent, Kuramochi had no choice but to be patient and fight against the opponent.
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"strike out!!"
Kuramochi forced himself to have the patience to fight with Bengo, but Bengo failed him.
The first inner corner of the ball, the second outer corner of the ball.
With such a staggered ball, Kuramochi has absolutely no confidence in his shot, and if he doesn't make a shot, he will naturally be chased.
In this way, on the third ball, Hongo suddenly threw a bad ball from the outside corner.
Kuramochi didn't think much about it. He was forced to swing the bat, but with 150 bad shots, where can he hit?
As a result, strike out!
Nine goals, three strikeouts.
In the first half of the eighth game, Qing Dao, who had been relatively strong before, was directly suppressed.
In the stands, the audience supporting the trolls became more and more numerous.
"This is not a good phenomenon!"
For such a result, Chris is the last thing he wants to see, he frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Sawamura?"
Turning his head, Chris wanted to discuss countermeasures with Sawamura, but he didn't want him to look back just to see Sawamura's scarlet eyes.
Chris's heart sank, and he had a hunch that Sawamura might make another mess.
Don't tell me, he really guessed it right!
When Sawamura saw Hong Kong's strong strikeout, the restless little gene in his body throbbed.
How could he be willing to be lonely now that his hometown is showing his power.
The other party spares no effort in physical strength, and he naturally does not need it.
Come on, hurt each other!
Who is afraid of whom?
