"Hip-hop!"
After Kuramochi stepped into the strike zone, his eyes were firmly locked on the mound.
At this moment, in his mind, he kept recalling the information about Tianjiu Guangsheng that Watanabe had said before.
This guy's pitching is very sharp, especially the kind of high drop curve, which makes it difficult to compete.
"He's a real genius!"
This is Watanabe's evaluation of Amanu Kosei.
"And he's a super genius who is invincible once he's out of shape."
The players of Qingdao High School have no doubts about this information. According to the information they have collected, once Tianjiu Guangsheng is able to cast his state, the combat power that he can burst out will definitely break the table.
For such a long time, although he has not yet cast his grades in high school, his strength is definitely the top in the country.
Kuramochi is very sure of this.
When Qingdao High School held a meeting before and analyzed the opponent's pitching strength, he also recognized this.
That is to say, the opponent in front of him can be compared with Sawamura, Narimiya Naruto, Mukai, and Akutsu.
"Does it mean that the other party has no weaknesses?"
Kuramochi had asked this before.
Thinking of fighting against such an opponent, even Kuramochi felt very uneasy.
He knows all too well how tough a pitcher at this level can be.
"This pitcher also has weaknesses that belong to him, and this weakness is not small, such as an unstable start. At the beginning of the game, he sometimes throws some very sweet balls. If there is such an opportunity, it must be To seize, this is likely to be the key to the outcome of the game."
Unstable start!
This is a common problem for many pitchers. In the beginning of the game, no matter how well warmed up the arms are, they are not fully deployed.
As a result, many pitchers often perform unsatisfactorily in the time period just played.
This is on a physical level.
There is also the mental aspect. When the game has just started, the pitcher's concentration will not reach the level of the late game.
It is for this reason that many pitchers tend to perform poorly in the beginning of the game.
Like Jiang Guxiao, he also has this problem.
A large percentage of the points Tianjiu Guangsheng lost before were concentrated in the first game.
Although he dropped few points overall, he dropped points in the first game twice in 12 games in the fall and play-offs alone.
This ratio is already quite frightening.
To know that his total lost points is only five points.
It is for this reason that Watanabe commented on his unstable start.
Kuramochi kept recalling these materials in his mind.
Then he took a big breath and waited for the baseball to fly.
If he starts erratically, the first ball at the beginning should have the highest probability.
Be sure to watch it!
Kuramochi's ambitious appearance successfully aroused the interest of Tianjiu Guangsheng, and he tilted his neck to look at Kuramochi.
Waiting to hit my straight ball?
That feeling was so obvious that Tianjiuguangsheng wanted to pretend that he didn't see anything, but he couldn't do it at all.
"funny!"
Knowing you're going to hit the straight ball, will I still hit the straight ball for you?
When I'm an idiot!
"Whoosh!"
Thinking of this, Tianjiuguangsheng took a stand and threw the white ball in his hand.
The white ball is like a first-class white light, which instantly appears above the home plate.
Kuramochi, who had been waiting for a long time and eager to try, saw the flying baseball, and rudely waved the bat in his hand out.
Seeing that the bat was about to touch the baseball.
A flash of joy flashed in Kuramochi's eyes.
Guess it right!
The speed of the ball is not fast at all, and the position is not tricky.
He is very sure that he can hit the white ball out.
At this moment, the baseball that was flying straight over suddenly fell!
Curve ball! ! !
This sudden change obviously exceeded the expectations of the warehouse.
He stared at everything in front of him, dumbfounded, and his mind was full of doubts.
How can it not be a straight ball?
"Snapped!"
"nice shot!!"
The surprise in Kuramochi's eyes didn't have time to dissipate.
On the pitcher's mound, Tian Jiu was already happy.
"idiot!"
Completely played around.
Your intention to hit the straight ball is so obvious.
How could I make you really fight?
However, this second ball can be caught with a straight ball.
Now that you're aiming for a straight ball, it's not good to be too disappointed.
"Whoosh!"
There was hardly any reaction time for Kuramachi, and the second ball flew over.
In the blink of an eye, the baseball was at Kuramochi's hand.
He looked at the flying baseball and smiled bitterly in his heart.
again!
In Kuramochi, this ball seemed to be no different from the previous straight ball.
Fortunately, the position was slightly off, so he didn't need to rush the bat.
"Snapped!"
"Bad ball!"
In this way, the number of **** becomes one good and one bad.
Tianjiu Guangsheng himself also felt very magical. He originally thought that this ball was enough to fool Kurachi to swing the bat.
did not expect.
He was so calm when he was picking the ball.
"amazing!"
Tianjiu is a sincere person, and he is not stingy in complimenting the other party's good performance.
bring it on!
At this time, his original fighting spirit was suddenly lifted.
In Qingdao High School, everyone's impression of Kuramochi is that his defense is very good at most. Once you get to base, it becomes extremely tricky.
but.
Just talking about hitting power and the success rate of effective hits.
The strength of the warehouse is not very strong.
Against such an opponent, as long as he is not allowed to go to base, he will not be able to turn the tide.
Originally, Tian Jiu thought so. Unexpectedly, during the actual competition, he discovered that Kuramochi Yoichi's striking strength was far less simple than he imagined.
First of all, his strike strength is actually not inferior, just not outstanding.
Especially in a team like Qingdao High School where monsters gather together, it looks even worse.
Then there is his eye for ball selection.
From the shot just now, he should be able to see clearly.
"King's Qing Dao!"
Muttering these four words Tianjiu Guangsheng's eyes began to change, becoming more focused than ever.
He instinctively realized that the team he was facing now was completely different from the teams he had faced in the past.
He must go all out to defeat these enemies in front of him.
Thinking of this, he had to get serious and throw the baseball in his hand.
"Whoosh!"
After the white ball flew out, it reached the top of the home plate in the blink of an eye.
coming!
Looking at the flying baseball, Kuramochi suddenly felt blessed.
Why does he want to confront each other head-on here?
"Ping!"
