Diamond Ace: Start with a world-class speedball

Chapter 013

“Good value for money”

“Nice pick-up!”

Sawamura excitedly encouraged.

“Fortunately, I chose a defensive position at the back!”

The outfielder who receives the ball, the heart flutters and beats.

If only he had just stood a little ahead.

The ball landed 100% on the ground, and the batter could also run smoothly to second base.

“Abominable!”

“Accidentally swinging too fast!”

The second- and third-year batsmen looked annoyed.

And yet…

What he didn’t know was….

The root cause of the mistake ….

It’s because of Sawamura’s pitching, when it comes to the batter, there will be an up/down/left/right drift!

But obviously!

Sudden change at close range!

It is impossible to discover without careful observation!

And the second hitter in the second and third grades.

I also think it was a careless mistake by my teammates, and I didn’t care too much.

So.

Facing Sawamura’s pitching.

Played a three-base, flat fly.

It wasn’t fast, and it flew to the front of the third baseman.

So.

The third baseman moved his gloves a little and caught them easily.

“OUT！”

Head Coach Kataoka immediately shouted.

“It’s awesome!”

“It only took two goals to get the two out!”

“Two out, two out!”

“Come on! Sawamura! ”

Seeing Sawamura eliminate the two so easily.

The freshmen are very excited to cheer for Sawamura.

“What a joke!”

“This good luck will not have a third time!”

The third hitter in the second and third grades waved the metal rod with an unhappy face.

Bang.

A crisp sound.

The baseball was hit in the infield and crashed into the land of the pitcher mound.

“Lean!”

“It’s starting slowly!”

“Fooled by the speed of his swing!”

The guerrilla thought that the opponent would hit the back, but he did not expect that the swing of such a big action was just an inland rolling earth.

But.

That’s when it happened.

Kominato Haruhi, who served as a second baseman.

Suddenly, he appeared in the sight of the guerrillas.

“For…”

“Why is the second baseman there!?”

The senior students, who were fortunate that the guerrillas could not catch up, were instantly dumbfounded.

Boom!

Kominato Haruchi’s left hand quickly reached out and caught the ball with precision!

Then!

No half a point of deceleration!

In the middle of a high-speed run, suddenly jump!

Then in mid-air, twist your body!

Meantime!

The right hand takes the baseball out of the glove of his left hand and neatly passes it into the gloves that the first baseman has laid out in advance!

The next moment.

The runner’s feet stepped on the first base.

However!

He’s one step slower than baseball!

“OUT！”

The first base referee announced the result immediately.

“Oh oh oh!”

Sawamura shouted excitedly.

“It’s awesome!”

“Just looked stunned!”

“Oh my God! We actually got 0 points for the second and third grades! ”

“The second baseman was amazing!”

The freshmen were thrilled.

“3 goals to eliminate 3 people, too healthy!”

In the cowshed, Lin Tian sighed quite emotionally: “If I can, I want to be like him.” ”

He was telling the truth.

If you only shoot 3 goals in one inning, you can save a lot of physical strength.

……

On the pitch.

At this time, the new life is full of momentum.

Even with the next attack, they performed well.

Although it is still impossible to score.

But everyone can hit the ball.

And just when the situation turned better, Zengzi Tong, who served as the five sticks of the original First Army, walked to the seat of the fighter.

In the baseball team.

The five sticks are called center hitters, also known as ‘clear-hearters’.

It usually requires the ability to send back runners who have accumulated on the base, as well as the quality to be able to blast out home runs.

Generally.

Being able to play five baseballs in the team is absolutely very strong.

So.

Sawamura’s expression suddenly became serious.

“It’s going to be blown up.”

Lin Tian’s eyes narrowed slightly.

On the night of the punishment in Sawamura.

Lin Tian originally wanted to tell Sawamura the truth about Sawamura’s ‘special straight ball’.

But then I thought.

The two were not familiar with each other at all.

In the face of strangers + peers’ preaching, Sawamura is estimated to be unable to listen.

And.

It’s just verbal preaching.

The effect may not be very large.

So.

Lin Tian changed his mind.

He plans to use the incident to remind him of this after he becomes friends with Kazusawa and waits until Sawamura is hit by Masuko Toru with a home run.

Lin Tian felt.

I had the experience of being hit with a home run.

Even if it is a reminder from peers, Sawamura should also pay attention to it.

……

On the pitch.

The augmentation is after a ball of observation.

He was keenly aware that the ball thrown by Sawamura would suddenly turn when it flew to the side.

But the timing of the turn was late!

This is both an advantage and a disadvantage!

Because the batter doesn’t notice the situation of the turn.

It will not hit the center of the ball, resulting in the ball being knocked out, the quality is very poor, and it is easy to be successfully defended by the defender.

But if found….

So!

Just stand at the front of the batting area!

You can finish the hit before baseball makes a turn!

And Sawamura’s pitching…

If you don’t turn the corner, it’s a straight ball in the middle!

“Reduce the swing amplitude…”

“Hit the ball quickly before it changes…”

Zengzi thought in his heart, in order to better control the bat, he deliberately chose the way to hold the stick short.

Eijun Sawamura, on the other hand, was completely unaware of this.

In the face of the upcoming duel, he only felt excited.

“This nervousness…”
