Chapter 77 The hand behind
bad ball!

The goal point is too low.

Shen Qin compared the landing point of the two balls with the shooting point, thinking deeply.It seems that it is not enough, I want to watch it again, but the outcome still depends on it~

It took Shen Qin a long time to suppress the desire in his heart, and he stood far away from the new right-hander, making a secret sign!
It's the fastball.

Hideo Uesugi also didn't know why Shen Qin wanted such a fastball from the outside corner, it was completely for the sideline: Come on man, do you have framing skills?And the next referee is the opponent's coach, although he was only forced to help and will not give on-court guidance, but of course he will not favor you!Maybe the corners and corners are all bad balls.

So Uesugi Hideo also shook his head.

Shake your head again?Shen Qin frowned in dissatisfaction. Is there any problem with the low outside corner fastball?Why do you have so many opinions when I serve you the ball?

Shen Qin didn't realize it at all. In fact, he watched Yuri's game too much.

In Yuri's squatting game, he has the final say in most cases, not to mention the pitcher's distribution, even the transfer and formation, as long as the coach has no special arrangements, he can be the master.The habitual Shen Qin also brought himself into it, completely ignoring the gap between the two sides and the problem that the trust between teammates was about zero.

Need a low speedball from the outside corner!Shen Qin's stubborn temper also came up, and he repeatedly made secret signs.

... Uesugi Hideo is also helpless!Hey Hey hey!We just met... No!I can't even say I know each other. Is it really okay to be so tough?However, considering that Shen Qin is his mother's patient, although he didn't say anything about it, there must be something wrong with him, so it's better not to mess with him, so he reluctantly nodded.

The four-seam fastball is the most basic type of ball, not to mention the pitcher, even the fielder must be well mastered.

Whoosh!The ball came over quickly!This is faster than all previous balls.

not good!

Uesugi Hideo was also surprised, it was too outside!I don't even touch the side of the belt that I asked for.And it's too high!
At the same time, Shen Qin behind the home plate was staring at the ball intently. His body did not move at all, and his shoulders remained stable. With a quick and small stretch of his arm, the glove flipped over, not only blocking the ball, but also blocking the ball. out of sight!
"boom!"

The flipped glove is back in place!
"Strike!" The referee drew the bow!
Uh? ? ?
Uesugi Hideo was also surprised, Shen Qin's movements were too fast and he didn't see clearly, but he could see the goal point of the ball clearly, how could it be a good shot, the referee was blind!
The hitter also looked helplessly at his coach, just kidding!Why is this kind of ball judged as a strike?So the obvious bad ball is good? !
Of course the presiding judge was not blind, but he was misled by Shen Qin. He was behind Shen Qin, with his hands resting on Shen Qin's sadness. Before entering Haoqiu, Shen Qin's gloves not only blocked his own line of sight, but also blocked the chief judge's.

The referee's final impression was that the ball was coming this way, but most of Shen Qin's glove stayed in the strike zone in the end, isn't it a strike!
Niu~ so awesome!At this moment, only the opponent's catcher Toyoma Uehara was admiring. As a catcher, he naturally knew more about the catcher's catch and distribution.He didn't think that Shen Qin's act of turning a bad ball into a good one just now was unconscious.If they could really do that kind of action casually, they would still practice what a fart!
look!The master judged the striker and was not surprised at all!Explain what?It shows that people have a certain degree of certainty from the beginning!He said that he deliberately made such an action to mislead the chief judge!Is there really a catcher with such a high degree of technical completion at this age?It's really terrible!

Of course, Shen Qin's actions were not accidental, although Yuri always said that his skills in this area were still trying to adjust and were not perfect.But Shen Qin watched his video repeatedly.

Coupled with Yuri's guidance and detailed explanation of every detail, in this respect, he has better learning conditions than all the little catchers in the world!Because what he absorbed was not only the personal experience of the best catcher in the major leagues, but also the head judge with the most rigorous law enforcement experience and the richest experience in the world standing behind Yuri!Can fool these chief judges!Naturally, it can deceive others even more!

OK OK!Followed by another fastball from the inside corner.Shen Qin smiled and made a secret sign, while leaning forward and squatting down, his right hand was habitually carried behind his back, but in the process, he brushed the strap behind the leg protector.

It looks like I got something on my hand.Shen Qin rubbed his fingers, but didn't move to look in front of him, but his face became gloomy.

Pine tar!
He has been in contact with this thing too much!Wipe the ball stick to increase friction when hitting!
But if this thing appeared on the fielder, it was reasonable, but it would be a big problem if it appeared on the catcher!
It's something that pitchers are strictly forbidden to use by the major leagues, although it does make pitchers shoot better.

Many pitchers put pine tar on their hats, inside their gloves, and even on their necks, anywhere it's convenient but hidden.Dip in the pine tar by turning your hat, prepping your glove, or even wiping your sweat.

Of course, getting caught is not as simple as being kicked out.There are too many examples of this.

Because the pitcher's target is too conspicuous, after all, standing alone on the pitcher's mound, it is the focus of the audience.

So later it developed into hiding pine tar on the catcher.It is possible to put it on all kinds of protective equipment all over the body, but most of them are applied on the back of the legs.Because the catcher has his right hand behind his back when he is preparing to catch the catch, he took this opportunity to dip some pine tar, and then used the gap between the next ball and the referee to change the ball to stick the pine tar on his hand to the ball. , and then toss the pitcher, which completes the transfer.

In today's major leagues, there is a rule that pitchers can't spit on the ball to increase the feel!So it becomes the pitcher's finger licking and then throwing the ball to a "landscape", and more of it is the common use of pine tar behind the scenes.But this one is still a child!Start using it now, can he practice well?The players in the major leagues have already honed their pitching to almost full marks.

Shen Qin finally understood why Hideya Uesugi's possession of the ball has been drifting since he changed himself to squat and catch!I blame myself for not oiling it, dear!
So here comes the question, does Hideo Uesugi know whether or not Ozawa Yu has anointed him?

If it's someone else, forget it, he doesn't intend to be troublesome, but Uesugichi is helping him now, and more indirectly let him experience the thrill of being a catcher!And according to Uesugi, Hideo Uesugi is also extremely fond of baseball. Will he use this kind of thing that will affect his practice at this stage?It's just unbelievable.

You must know that in Japan, players don't even spit, and the only thing pitchers use on their hands is antiperspirant and dehumidifying talcum powder!
But if it wasn't Hideya Uesugi~ then it would be Yu Ozawa, the catcher who retired!If it was him, why did he do this?
