Chapter 24 Getting to know each other
Mike Lee is famous for his sinker. Let's try it first. Lake is not a hitter who likes to swing the first pitch. He is very strict.

Yuri gestured to Mike Lee after making a decision.

Lee felt very puzzled. L. Lake was as famous for hitting the sinker as he was good at throwing the sinker. At this time, he actually let himself throw the sinker?He was a little dissatisfied. He felt that this genius who had been praised as a rare talent for centuries was actually not very good, but he was a newcomer, and he was the first boarder in spring training, so he should listen to him first.

So he still nodded.

The ball is thrown from the fingertips.

Oops!Mike Lee was startled, the ball was a bit missed, it was too high!
"Bang!" Although the ball was high, Yuri still caught it into his glove, and he pushed his hand, making a reassuring gesture.

Huh~ Mike Lee breathed a sigh of relief, but it was a little strange. The ball just now was not only high because of a missed shot, but also had no tail force, but Lake didn't move at all. At this moment, he didn't show any expression. He swung his bat and stood back up again.

Forget it, why does Yuri have a normal expression?Did he already know Lake didn't swing the first pitch...so...

The corners of Yuri's mouth curled up, and he knew exactly what was going on in Mike Lee's mind: It's normal for Lake not to swing, otherwise, where do you think he got such a high hit rate against the sinker?Of course, we must see if we can fight again!You must know that no matter how talented a hitter is, it is impossible to break into the big leagues by feeling~ You should usually pay attention to collecting this information!

Second ball.

Mike Lee's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe the code he saw.What?Or a sinker?He is really flustered now.He shook his head suspiciously.

Yuri sighed. It's normal for pitchers to have their own ideas, but the problem is that Lake has been in the American League in the past. Mike Lee has never played against him, and it's not like he is familiar with the opponent in the minor leagues, so he doesn't understand him. The match-up was excusable, but he had no intention of compromising.This combination is like falling in love.When one party is strong, the other party will be weak!Unfortunately, I don’t want to be the weak one!
Yuri compared the password again!Eyes narrowed.

Mike Lee met those eyes through the opponent's helmet, and nodded involuntarily.

Forget it!Listen to it again.

Sideways, leg lifts, strides, arms swings!
"boom!"

The ball smashed into Yuri's glove!

This time the sound was muffled.

And Lake swung a big empty stick!

"Missed swing! Leading by two strikes!" Chen Jianbo roared, speaking quickly: "I don't know if you have seen the exchange between shooting and catching just now, hahahaha~ It's so interesting! Before throwing the second ball , Mike Lee obviously had a problem with Yuri's distribution, but the position of Yuri's glove did not change, obviously he did not intend to compromise haha~ In the end, Mike Lee still voted according to Yuri's distribution! The result tricked Lake! Swing It's a big empty stick!"

"Ha, it seems that Yuri has the upper hand in the strong confrontation between the two new members. Teacher Chen and I have been discussing how long it will take for Yuri to be able to even the ball among the pitchers after he joins the new team. Establish prestige in the team!"

——The anchor is so naughty!

——But Yuri is so handsome with a mask on!I never thought men with long curly hair could look so good!

——Go and see his photo in last year’s playoffs, he was handsome even with dyed blonde hair^o^
--real!real!

——You who are chasing stars or watching football upstairs!
——It's suitable for both!Don't delay!

——…

"Haha~ This is also progress!" Chen Jianbo laughed: "Let's continue watching the game!"

Here Mike Lee is still in shock, because the angle of Lake's swing is clearly where he missed the last time, and he's sure of it now!Yuri Cliff did it on purpose!

All right!You cow listen to you!

What? !Or a sinker?Brother, don't tease me!
That Lake's memory positioning of the ball is so strong...

Eye contact! yuree wins!
snort!It's your fault for being beaten out!

"Crack!"

Hit the ball!The sound is weird!The stick is cracked!

Lake cursed, and the ball that looked like a straight ball suddenly fell!Another card!

The ball is powerless and goes out to form a ground ball in the infield!

"Out!"

Lake rolled his eyes at Yuri, and walked off the field helplessly.

The game ended with 3 outs, Lake got up and went off, and patted the still confused Mike Lee on the back!

"why?"

Of course Yuri wouldn't answer him, he just blinked innocently.

Why?It's actually very simple, because not only does he know Lake, but Lake also knows him. He knows that Lake will look at the positioning of the ball first, so of course Lake also thought of this after two balls, and felt that he must change to a fastball straight ball!

Well, at this time, it is natural to use the Chinese proverb to do the opposite!The effect is of course good!

Matching the ball, to put it simply, is a process of fighting wits and courage with the batter!Of course, all of this has to take into account the state of the pitcher!
And Mike Lee's condition is indeed good today, Yuri just grasped these two points!Three up and three down!big win!
There were many Cardinals fans at the scene, and they all gave warm applause to the three sinkers that solved Lake in a row. They really need an excellent catcher. Although Yuri is very young, they are all diehard fans of the Cardinals. !They are willing to believe in the team's vision, and it seems that Yuree is really good at this time!
Worth looking forward to it!

"yoyo~yoyo!"

They don't hesitate to give affectionate titles!

——You can hear shouts across the screen, what is yoyo?Nick name?

--yo-yo?

——Haha~ Upstairs is naughty-. -
"Yes, yes ~ Nickname ~" Ye Ping smiled: "The fans at the scene today are very lucky! The spring training venue can have close contact with these major league players!"

——Anchor! Does yoyo have a baby?

--Yo!They are all so kind!

--That is!It must be yoyo~ how kind!
——Anchor!Before the start of the game, I saw many players warming up with beards and long hair!Or do they?
——Very iconic!

The audience was enthusiastic, and the anchor was naturally interested in arguing with them. Chen Jianbo smiled and said, "It seems that yoyo has gained a group of little fans today! I don't know if he has dolls, but I can tell you anecdotes about beards. The team that has won the most World Series championships, the New York Yankees, has a rule that they cannot grow beards, and many players have rejected the team's invitation for this reason."

As he spoke, he put the Yankee hat on the table: "Wait for the season to officially start! Every time we broadcast live games, we will give out hats as quiz gifts! Audience friends, remember to pay attention!"

--ah!The team logo on this hat looks familiar!There are so many around!It turns out that there are so many fans around me!

--cut!Upstairs, I have this hat too!But before today, I only knew New York!Didn't know the Yankees!
——It turns out that this is the Yankees team logo!This hat is very popular~
——shivering~ It turns out that we have been living in the MLB world without knowing it!

——Hahaha~ Didn’t you pay attention to the cardinal’s hat in the live broadcast?I think it looks great too!
— I've always been a Cardinals fan!Call for the red bird!

--Well!Turns out there are hidden birdie fans too, I love the one that yoyo adopted kid was wearing just now!
"Speaking of the red bird!" Ye Ping took a hat of the St. Louis Cardinals, which was the one worn by Shen Qin: "Hey, besides the team badge, there are also this kind, this is the origin of the Cardinals, I believe that many students who study abroad in Missouri can often see this North American cardinal~ Alright! Today, everyone is so enthusiastic to post a bonus. From friends who reposted comments and followed the official Weibo MLB United live broadcast, three people will be selected to give away Bird's hat!"

— Huo!Follow now!
——Seek to win the prize!

——Buy a hat and get a yoyo! ! !
