v2 Chapter 71： : Opponents of completely different levels

Eijun Sawamura stepped onto the pitcher's mound and took the baseball from Kawakami's hand.

Kenshi Kawakami's hands were light, as if he was not holding a baseball, but a piece of fragile glass.

"give it to you!"

There was a bit of unwillingness in his tone, and he left the stage like this, and it would be difficult to accept it on anyone. Although Kenshi Kawakami is a year older than Sawamura. But in the end, he was just an ordinary boy.

Sawamura didn't say anything, because he knew that no matter what he said, Kawakami wouldn't listen now.

And from his standpoint, nothing can be said now.

He just nodded very solemnly.

"Do not worry!"

Back in the rest area, the surrounding coaches and teammates all looked at Kawakami and hesitated.

Maybe even they don't know what to say, what happened just now, it is natural to replace Kawakami. But Kawakami, what's wrong?

As far as pitching is concerned, although his performance just now wasn't perfect, he couldn't say it was bad either.

He played his strength steadily.

The only reasonable explanation for the current situation is that he is not the ace pitcher on the team.

Therefore, at the critical moment that decides the victory or defeat of the game, it will never be entrusted to him.

That's the job of the ace pitcher.

What was Kawakami thinking? Nobody knows.

Just sitting on the lounge chair, he clenched his fist unwillingly.

I don't know if he feels unfair to such treatment, or if he is not reconciled to his lack of strength.

"It's not your fault just now, it's because I underestimated my opponent. If you are unwilling, try to improve your strength, so that the next time you hand over the pitcher mound to you, this situation will not happen."

Director Kataoka said flatly.

He didn't say much comforting words, just took the responsibility completely on him. However, a piece of information was also revealed, and he would give Kawakami another chance later.

Hearing this, Kawakami stood up abruptly.

"Yes!"

Kawakami can recover, and the friends around him also feel a lot easier.

Coach Ochiai glanced at Director Kataoka with admiration.

awesome!

It was just a few words that instantly made a player change his mentality. This is not something that ordinary coaches can do. It must be a skill that only teachers can have.

"If you want to improve your strength, you might as well keep your eyes open to see how Sawamura Eijun does it."

Luohe stroked his moustache and muttered.

"Yes!"

Kawakami, who had regained his spirits, diligently widened his eyes and watched the duel in the center of the court with a piercing vigor.

One out, one at second base.

In the position of the catcher, Miyuki also called for a pause. He excitedly ran up to pitcher mound to discuss countermeasures with Sawamura Eijun.

Um?

With Sawamura Eijun's pitching ability, do we need to discuss any countermeasures in advance?

Kawakami was puzzled.

As if he could see through his mind, Coach Ochiai's eyes showed a bit of pride, and he explained it very well as a teacher.

"The purpose of Miyuki's suspension is not to really discuss any countermeasures, he is to interrupt the momentum before Ukumori High School. Haven't you noticed that the cheering sound like a tsunami of mountains and tsunamis at the scene has disappeared! "

Kawakami woke up like a dream.

He had suffered a lot before, as if everyone around him was looking forward to Ukumori High School's victory.

The overwhelming pressure made him unable to concentrate on pitching. It's not unrelated to the reason why his **** are being hit continuously.

When Sawamura first came on stage, the cheering sound was still very loud.

After a short while, as Sawamura walked up the pitcher mound, Miyuki called to pause, and the loud cheering noises around him disappeared.

Even the atmosphere on the field has also changed!

It was as if the Great Demon King himself had a different aura.

The real situation is not like this. According to Coach Ochiai, all of this was calculated by Miyuki and Sawamura. The reason why they did that was to disturb the momentum of Ukumori High School.

And it looks like they should have succeeded!

totally different!

Completely different from himself, Sawamura, after playing, was like a magnet with enormous suction, attracting everything around him.

Make everything around him revolve around him.

"This guy! Does he need to do this to such an extent with his strength?"

Kawakami couldn't help but muttered in a low voice.

In his opinion, with Sawamura Eijun's pitching, there is absolutely no need to do so. He can completely strike out his opponent by relying on his own change ball.

Ochiai shook his head: "If you think so, then you underestimate Sawamura and the others. Goshawks fight rabbits with all their strength. There is no turning back in high school baseball. He controls everything around him in his own hands. It is precisely because he does these details well that his performance is so perfect! This has even formed his instinct, not consciously. If you It is also aimed at the trump card, first of all, you must do everything you can do well first.”

Kawakami nodded thoughtfully.

Although this is a bit complicated, it is not difficult to understand. Kawakami feels that he has benefited a lot.

The new coach, at the level of coaching skills, is impeccable.

In the rear, Xiao Gu Xiao also nodded.

As if he also understood something.

"You don't have to listen to these, just focus on your ball control."

Director Kataoka didn't know how his eyes grew, and he could see clearly what was going on behind his head.

Seeing Jiang Guxiao nodding, he immediately reprimanded in a cold voice.

Just kidding, Jiang Guxiao didn't even learn to crawl, so what did he learn to run?

Doesn't this make people crooked?

on the mound.

Miyuki and Sawamura did not exchange any information as Ochiai imagined.

This suspension did have the intention of disturbing the momentum of Ukumori High School, but at the same time Miyuki really wanted to exchange information with Sawamura.

"The other party has been setting up a trap for me from the beginning, leading us into the ditch. They have been stealing bases without thinking before, but just now they used hit and run..."

"What do you want to say?"

Sawamura asked bluntly.

"The other side's staff is very powerful, and they have studied us very thoroughly. Their plans have been very successful before, and they have left a fixed pattern in the minds of me and most of the fielders around me. So when they take action, we subconsciously If you don’t, you will think what the other party is going to do. At the beginning, of course, everyone will not be misled, but it has been so many times in a row, and everyone subconsciously thinks this way.”

"Now that you've got your guards up, wouldn't it be easy to fix?"

"But now I don't know which are their habits and weaknesses which are the tricks they deliberately set for us."

"so what?"

"It's simple, don't give them a chance to hit the ball, just shoot it all for strikeouts."

"You wouldn't want me to unlock a new Orb of Change, would you?"

"That's not true, Ujimori is not qualified. But with you as their opponent, they can't grasp the timing of swinging in the first round."

"The problem is that there are runners on the base now, and even if I wanted to go head-to-head with them, they might not be willing to do it."

"The guy on the base bag, of course, I have to leave it to you, the ace, to handle it yourself."

"Okay, you cow!"

In just a few seconds, the two have exchanged everything that should be exchanged, and even assigned tasks to each other.

Next, it's time to tackle your opponent.
