Chapter 246 Invincible
As a catcher, Tetsu Nishino deeply understands the importance of the direction of playing, and different pitching routes will have different impacts.
These things are usually just considered by catchers, but Tetsu Nishino feels that it is not harmful to tell them to everyone.
"There are 12 situations in total from 0-0 to 3-2. If you figure out when the pitcher is good, when the hitter is good, and when the opponent is good, you will be more confident in choosing to strike."
“Hey—”
Ito Nao, who was sitting at the back, raised his hand suddenly.
"Is this the reason why you are so powerful in Xiaozhe? Then I have to listen carefully!"
"Uh...Senior Ito, don't I say you don't listen carefully..."
"Ahhh... Of course not!"
Despite this fact, Ito Nao still hurriedly denies it.
Hiroki Tsuji shook his head with a wry smile. The knowledge he himself was quite boring. Usually he wanted to tell everyone, but not many people could listen to it.
Tetsu Nishino was not discouraged.
Tomorrow's final is the most important game of summer. They will rest for one night regardless of whether they have to hold a ball analysis tactical meeting tonight.
So Tetsu Nishino planned to do his best to explain more or less to everyone, so that the competition record data collected by Ayuki Mori can play the greatest role.
After playing for a while, Tetsu Nishino continued: "For example, the number of balls is 2-2."
"The psychological changes between pitchers and hitters are completely different from those between 0-1 and 2-2."
On the small whiteboard next to it, Takashi Nishino wrote down the things summarized from the competition data with a black pen and listed them into a simple and easy-to-understand table.
"At this time, of course, we must consider what ball to match in this situation. This kind of ball pairing that considers the route requires the catcher to know the nature of the number of balls and lead to a favorable situation for the pitcher."
"And the catcher of Matsusaka Shang did a good job."
"It can be seen that they chose very well for the strikeout and the opportunity to create any hit."
"It's true."
While listening to Takashi Nishino's explanation, everyone nodded involuntarily as they watched the video of the Matsusaka Shopping Competition edited from the computer.
Seeing that the seniors gradually became serious, Tetsu Nishino breathed a sigh of relief, but the seniors' thoughts were not wasted.
"So, even if the number of balls is not good, I hope that the seniors will consciously choose the route that is beneficial to our side and strive to lead the number of balls that are beneficial to us."
"For example, when there are people on 2 bad and 2 good bases, Matsusaka often gives such pitches. Senior, please see..."
"Oh...so that's what it is..."
In this way, Baishan's pre-match tactical meeting was held until 10 o'clock in the evening.
After the meeting, everyone gathered in the department's activity room and watched TV, because during this period, Mie TV was broadcasting a Takano's group.
The program has just begun, and the main thing is to take place is the preview of the final of tomorrow's triple conference.
"Good evening, here is..."
The opening remarks of several hosts came from the TV. Tetsu Nishino also wanted to know what others thought of Matsusaka Shang and Shiratsuyama, so he sat down and watched them with his seniors.
"We finally came the battle to decide the victory. Yes, please look here. What is impressive tonight is... Can we unveil a new door to history?"
"Watershan High School, which uses tenacious defense as its weapon, will challenge Matsusaka Shang High School, which has strong line play. In the end, it will be Gu Hao's resurrection or the counterattack of the dark horse. What are the keys to determine the game?"
The program first introduces the results of the first game of the semi-finals, Matsusaka Shang defeated 8-1 to comprehensively.
Then the video of the match that Matsusaka Shang reached the finals was edited, and the background music was shocking and exciting, which made the audience involuntarily enter it, deeply intoxicated by the teenagers' enthusiasm for fighting.
"To completely defeat the opponent, the terrifying super powerful line-up, Matsusaka Business High School, points to the Jiaziyuan that has been violating for 60 years!"
In the TV screen, the hitters of Matsusaka Shopping High School hit the opponent's pitcher's ball again and again, and the runners easily returned to the base, scoring one point after another.
Moreover, the BGM and the commentator cooperated very well, vividly showing the strength of Matsusaka Sho's line-up. The players of Baishan were stunned and sat on the floor and couldn't speak.
"This line-up is terrible..."
Once again, Matsusaka Shang’s strong line-up was played. Even if he was mentally prepared, Tetsu Nishino could not avoid being a little discouraged.
Unlike Shiratsuyama's life-and-death battles, Matsusaka High School reached the final, which can be said to have crushed all the way. The only thing that puts pressure on them was the only match between Matsusaka High School vs. Mie.
In the first summer meeting, Matsusaka Business High School will play against the Prefecture Basan Summit High School, and Sane High School has just reached the semi-finals in the spring Jiaziyuan. Summer is the time to be the strongest.
Even so, Matsusaka Shang still defeated Mie 5-2 and gave his opponent a defeat and retreat.
Next, there is no team in the entire Mie Prefecture that can stop Matsusaka Shang High School from moving forward, and it can't even play until nine games.
"Four consecutive games ended early, should Matsusaka Jun be so over-the-top..."
Yumori Shiyuan complained that they had analyzed the data of their opponents all night, but they still felt that they could fight with their opponents. But now when they watched the TV show, the feeling of being invincible to the opponents arises naturally.
The opponent's performance was really too strong. After the triple battle, the four consecutive test matches ended early.
In the second round of the battle, Matsusaka Shangri-chan 8 to 1 Tsudao, and the 7th game ended early.
In the third round of battle, Matsusaka Shang 8 to 1, Sanmingxi, and the 7th game ended early.
In the semi-finals, Matsusaka Shangri-Yuan 8-0, the 7th game ended early.
The most outrageous thing is that even if you reach the semi-finals level, Matsusaka Shang still beat the seed team and ended early with an 8-1 score of 8 games.
The last part of this VCR is played by Captain Matsusaka Caravan.
In the picture, a reporter asked the captain of Matsusaka Shang and said, "Can the team's line plays a big explosion tomorrow?"
"We have always maintained the momentum of winning every point, so we gradually expanded the score, and tomorrow's game will be the same as usual."
From the calm face and calm words of the Matsusaka Caravan Captain, all the audience can see the strong posture of the Matsusaka Caravan player, the strong confidence and the determination to win, which was conveyed through the TV screen.
"How to fight this..."
When everyone saw the explosive attack power of Matsusaka Shang, they began to get frustrated, but surprisingly, they quickly calmed down and rekindled their fighting spirit.
Chapter completed!
