In the third inning of the game, the second-year senior Kawakami stepped onto the pitching mound.
As a player of the same grade, he was promoted to the first army at about the same time. Although Miyuki and Kawakami took two completely different paths.
But the cooperation between them is very tacit. Seeing Kawakami's high fighting spirit, Miyuki felt very excited too.
Did Jiang Guxiao's previous performance stimulate him?
Compared with the previous training, Jiang Guxiao today is obviously not in the state, but even this Jiangguxiao who is not in the state in front of him still performs well.
The absolute ace in the team is Sawamura!
Although Akatsuki and Kawakami's strengths are good, compared with Sawamura's strength, there is obviously a very big gap between them.
Therefore, in a short period of time, the three are not comparable. At the very least, the two of them cannot be compared with Sawamura in a short period of time.
The level is too low!
But the two of them are comparable to each other, and even to some extent, they are still in direct competition.
No matter which competition it is, it is almost impossible for Sawamura Eijun to survive alone, so he definitely needs a rotating substitute.
This is the so-called pitcher's main bench.
Although this person does not have the number of the positive election, it is generally regarded as the positive election. This position is much stronger than the general substitute.
During the period of Sawamura's rotation, who can replace this position?
Is it Akatsuki or Kawakami?
This needs to see their respective states and the result of this game.
Seeing Yu Gu Xiao's performance so well, Kawakami's fighting spirit is aroused, and it is not completely impossible.
"Our opponents are not ordinary. I'm afraid they know your strength better than Jiang Guxiao now. Don't look at just two matches, if you're not careful..."
Before going on the court, Miyuki specially found Kawakami and wanted to have a simple exchange and communication with him.
"I know!"
In this regard, Kawakami's answer was very calm and calm.
It seems that during this time in the rest area, he has already felt the atmosphere of the game is not simple.
That couldn't be better!
Miyuki felt relieved secretly, returned to the position of the catcher, and the game resumed.
"First shot, shortstop, Araki."
Watching Araki walk into the strike zone, at first, no one took it too seriously.
In this match between the seniors of the third grade and the juniors of the first and second grades, two rounds have been played before you know it.
Through these two games, everyone quickly discovered a problem.
That is, those main players who have scored in Koshien before and others who have not scored in Koshien, or even if they have scored in Koshien, they are also substitutes.
There is a clear gap between them.
Originally, there was a gap between the main players and the substitutes. Otherwise, why would others be the main players and you can only be a substitute?
It's just that in a giant team like Qingdao High School, the main force and the substitute are very good, and the gap between them should not be too obvious.
But in the previous game, the gap between the two sides was obvious.
"The main players who have experienced Jiaziyuan and communicated with the top players in the country have grown by leaps and bounds in this period of time. The gap between them and their original teammates has also come out."
Coach Ochiai said while pinching his chin.
Koshien is really a very magical place. After seeing and competing there, players will generally grow to varying degrees.
Araki, in the original Qingdo High School baseball team, was a backup shortstop.
Even if Kawakami didn't perform much in Koshien, he played several times.
And Araki, except for the two supervisions of Kataoka, let the substitute go to Koshien to feel the atmosphere. At other times, he has not appeared.
It is precisely for this reason that everyone did not take Araki as a dish at first.
Even Miyuki and Kawakami, who were direct opponents, generally thought so.
They never thought, what difficulties will arise when dealing with Araki?
But the real situation is often just the opposite. Although Araki is only a substitute in the Qingdao High School baseball team, it does not mean that he is not strong!
His strength may be really stretched against a monster of the level of Xiaogu Xiao.
But to deal with Kawakami, it is not completely out of reach.
Moreover, Araki is different to Kawakami than to Fukugu Akira.
It was only half a year that Xiao Gu joined Qingdao High School. And in the past six months, Xiao Gu Xiao has learned from scratch, and his strength has changed with each passing day.
In such a situation, it becomes very difficult to understand his pitching.
Kawakami is different. Kawakami has been in Qingdao High School for two years. During these two years, everyone has a clear understanding of his strength.
This includes Araki.
"Kawakami's ball, I wanted to play it for a long time!"
"Ping!"
Facing the ball thrown by Kawakami, Araki directly hit the ball out At the catcher's position, Miyuki frowned.
The ball path has been guessed!
This feels more embarrassing.
For the first ball, Miyuki did not give a clear code.
According to the information he has, the first ball, Araki-senpai, usually doesn't swing.
So no matter what kind of ball Kawakami hits, it should be very safe. That's why Miyuki let Kawakami decide to pitch.
did not expect!
"We know our opponents, and our opponents know us too!"
Miyuki smiled wryly.
The white ball hit the fielding ball at second base and bounced.
"Go ahead and rush out in one breath!"
"Hit! Hit!!!"
Just as Araki rushed out to prepare for first base, a figure suddenly came out and stopped in front of the baseball.
Because the rebound of the baseball was relatively low, he deliberately changed the position of his glove and blocked the ball very securely.
"Snapped!"
The small white ball got into the glove, and the figure passed the ball to the first base without stopping.
"Snapped!"
"Out!"
This ball, Araki played very well, but it is a pity that the second baseman of the freshman high school baseball team was not given for nothing.
It was Kominato Chunshi just now, and he rushed out of the sky, blocked the ball, and passed it to first base.
"here you go!"
"As expected of the devil brother."
"My elder brother is a good man, and my younger brother is not bad."
...
Not only the audience was amazed, but even the coaching staff spoke highly of Kominato's performance just now.
"Brother's position, younger brother's substitute, there should be no problem!"
"The ability to guard is still a little worse than his brother!"
