Chapter 199 Monotone
The second half of the second round.
There were people out of two bases, and the hitter was Xiaogao's turn to be a batter.
"Two out!"
Tetsu Nishino raised his right hand and made this gesture, indicating that he could just get another number of outs, so there was no need to worry too much.
Considering the two hitters on the base, Takashi Nishino looked at Akagao's first shot standing on his left and thought to himself.
"Try to match multiple change balls."
Tetsu Nishino played the secret code for the first ball, which was a finger-fork ball, and the position was in the outer corner.
Because the straight ball that you can throw is not high, Yamamoto Shuoya takes the ball control route. However, it is difficult to avoid the hit person adapting to it, and it is necessary to use the change ball reasonably.
Like many high school pitchers, Yamamoto Shuoya knows how to shoot their own balls and practices them whenever they have time.
In the official game, the key to how to use these low-performing ball types depends on the timing of the pitch.
Tetsu Nishino chose to match the finger-to-fork ball because the finger-to-fork ball thrown by Yamamoto Sakuya is very similar to the straight ball at a long distance, and the ball speed is not much different. The hitter suddenly encounters it is not easy to catch the hit point.
After typing the code, Yamamoto Shuoya on the pitcher mound understood Tetsu Nishino's idea. Tetsu Nishino has always been used in this way, and it was not a temporary rise.
"Yeah, I get it."
Yamamoto Shuoya nodded, and a light move made Tetsu Nishino know that he was ready to approve of this ball.
Takashi Nishino used the center of gravity to catch the ball in the middle and placed his gloves in the center of the good ball area. He was confident that when the ball came, he reached forward and pressed to catch the ball.
In other words, looking at the position of Nishino Tetsugu's gloves, I don't know what the ball path he wants in the end.
First ball.
call out!
The ball was shot straight out, then began to fall, and finally deviated from the outer corner.
"Bang!"
Tetsu Nishino caught the ball with his backhand.
"Bad ball!"
Xiaogao's shot did not make a stick. He watched the ball reach the base throughout the whole process and chose a bad ball.
The second ball.
Takashi Nishino squatted down and his posture was almost exactly the same as the first ball, as if telling Akigao that the second ball would have the same ball path.
On the pitcher mound, Yamamoto Shiroya threw the ball towards the home plate!
call out!
"I'm not lying to you."
The moment when Akatsuki's first-machine hitter watched again, Takashi Nishino took his backhand and the baseball fell into the glove with a crisp sound.
"Bang!"
"nice shot!"
The referee raised his hand and clenched his fists and shouted.
This ball was almost the same as the ball just now, but it leaned a lot in and pressed the edge of the good ball area into the base.
In fact, this is how you control the ball. You will slowly find the feeling when you shoot continuously in one place. So, the third ball is still matched with this position.
call out!
"Bang!"
"Bad ball!"
The third ball, Yamamoto Shuoya, missed a little, and the ball finally dropped out. Akagao's hitter watched again.
Three consecutive balls are all finger-propelled balls in the outer corner.
2 bad 1 good.
"What a monotonous ball-pairing. What exactly does Baishan's catcher want to do?"
After letting go of these 3 goals, Xiaogao, who was hitting the attack area, muttered in his heart.
Although three finger-propelled balls in the outer corners seem to be easy for the hitter to get familiar with them and then catch the ball path, in fact, the balls at the low position of the outer corners are difficult to hit, and of course, it is also difficult for the pitcher to shoot.
It's not that simple to really catch the ball and play it out.
But this is more beneficial to the fighters, because few pitchers can shoot the change ball so accurately every time, and of course Shuoya Yamamoto can't do it either.
The fourth goal.
Yamamoto Shuoya suddenly threw the ball out!
call out!
The ball flew straight towards the lower outer corner, but to the hitter's surprise, the ball fell very little this time, obviously it was a straight ball.
Xiaogao's first bat hitter, who thought the ball would fall out, held the bat and let the straight ball go.
"Bang!"
"nice shot!"
The number of balls becomes 2 bad and 2 good, and the hitter is chased.
Xiaogao's hitter saw the ball speed of "126km" displayed on the electronic screen, and he couldn't help but bulge his mouth and a hint of regret rose in his heart.
After looking at the fingertips at that position for several balls, a straight ball with a similar path in the front part came suddenly. The "rationality" prompted him to let it go.
The speed difference between Yamamoto Shuoya's fingertip and straight ball is sometimes within 10 kilometers, and the drop difference is only obvious when entering the base, so it is really difficult to distinguish between hitters.
After two good balls.
Tetsu Nishino did not make a secret code, and he had not even changed his squat catch posture, and he was still the preparatory pose of the forehand in the center.
This time, Xiaogao didn't plan to watch the ball again. As long as the ball was thrown in, he would take action clearly.
"Don't worry about him, just hit the ball!"
call out!
The ball was thrown out.
"High-level ball? Should you score a good goal area? Then you can only play."
The speed of this ball is still the same as the previous few goals, not particularly fast. Xiaogao's shot was judged to be able to hit a straight ball within a few seconds.
"Clang!"
Xiaogao swung his bat and hit the ball.
Tetsuo Nishino immediately stood up, raised his hand and pushed the mask up, watching the ball being shot out.
"Click!"
The ball hit the infield ground in front of the home zone and bounced out.
This ball is not a straight ball judged by the hitter, but a falling finger-propelled ball, so the hitter swept the bat out by hitting a straight ball, but hit the upper edge of the ball.
Infield attacks the ball in the first base!
After the ball hit the ground, the rebound speed was not fast and the height was not high. Shiratsuyama first baseman Akimori reached out and blocked the ball in his gloves. He made a "don't come down" gesture to Yamamoto Shuoya who was thinking about it, and shouted calmly.
"No, I can do it myself."
Yumori Shiyuan took the ball, trotted back two steps, and stepped on the inside of the first base.
“Exit.”
Yileizui said with a fist clenched and raised his fist, indicating that the hitter was blocked and eliminated.
"Three out!"
"Off and defense exchange!"
In the second half of the second inning, Akagao created a scoring opportunity for someone to get out of two in the first and second bases, but was resolved by Yamamoto Shuoya with a finger ball. He did not get a score and was still behind with 4 points.
"Yamamoto, I threw myself beautifully."
When he went back, Arimori Shion said to Yamamoto Shuoya with a smile.
The infield ball like the past is really easy for defensive players to intercept. They don’t have to fall to the ground or fly, just stand and wait for the ball to come.
"It's okay, Yousen, you blocked the ball quickly."
"Haha, I feel at ease if I didn't let the ball leak."
When Baishan players entered the rest seat one by one, Xiaogao's players came on the court with gloves. The rest time for offense and defense exchanges was very short, so they had to seize the opportunity to prepare on the court.
"The first half of the three innings, Shirashan High School's offense. The hitters who are playing now are seven bats, second baseman, Kajikawa Kwan."
The one who hits the ball on Shiratsu is Qijikawa Yuichiro, who is a lower-level player with a slightly weaker attack.
But now that the game starts, Baishan players are eliminated too quickly.
