Ace of Diamonds: The Last Piece of the Puzzle

After that, Coach Ochiai continued to play his role. These days, he sat generously in the bullpen and guided the pitchers.

Ochiai warned Sawamura: "It's still too high. Once you get used to it, you have to practice ball control and keep it as low as possible." Obviously he has put forward higher requirements and higher expectations for Sawamura!

Next to him, Kawakami and Miyuki were also practicing the sinker. Ochiai said that although he had guessed it, he didn't expect this person to shoot the ball so well!

Ochiai asked directly: "You throw the sinker well, why didn't you use it before?" Kawakami broke into a cold sweat by asking.

"Something happened before!"

Ochiai didn't care about Kawakami's ambiguity, and just warned: "What a pity, try to vote as much as possible!" Then he shouted to Miyuki: "Miyuki, come on."

Although Miyuki was confused, he still replied: "Yes!"

Ochiai said bluntly: "Furitani wants to try throwing a change ball, you come and help him catch it!" At this time, Furitani followed his words and stood on the pitcher's mound. Obviously, the two of them had been prepared!

Kurosawa was also watching this scene in the bullpen at this time and couldn't help but laugh. Oh my god, this coach really has to be admired! Then he quickly helped the pitcher move to a higher place!

Really, no one is left behind! Whether it's the pitcher's pitching or other people's training, he seems to be there! Recently, I often see those people going to the training room for training together. It seems that Coach Ochiai has integrated into Seido very well!

Kurosawa looked at Kawakami, who had also made a comeback recently with Shinka, and remembered that he once asked Miyuki: "Is Ken still lacking a good pitch? This way the pitching system will be more complete!"

Miyuki's answer at the time was: "It's a shadow. Ken sealed this ball type after he threw three touch balls in a single game in the first-year autumn meeting."

Now that Ah Xian has plans to get out of the gloom again, his combat power will definitely increase again! Later, I saw that even Shenggu had added a kind of changing ball, and I just thought it was really good. In this way, no one would be left behind. So, I am really curious about how far we can go this time!

Although I still don’t know what kind of change ball Daitani is learning, but since it was chosen by coach Ochiai, it is naturally the most suitable ball type for him! Kurosawa thought silently.

Well! Since this is the case, I definitely have to take another step forward. After all, only I know that the new pitching posture has brought about some different changes. It turns out that his ball is not unchanged, as long as the rotation speed is fast enough. Or if the ball is slow enough, it can float or sink when the ball is about to reach home plate.

It's just that the magnitude of the change won't be as outrageous as other people's change balls. It's just a deviation of a few ball positions at most. Now I can't accurately control the extent of its changes, and I might break the ball if I'm not careful!

Although it is very confusing, it is a pitching method that you will only use when you are pursuing strikeouts. Now you should practice ball control!

However, I am still more curious about the new ball species from Xianggu! Then Kurosawa signaled a pause to Ono opposite him, but he couldn't help but want to take a look!

At this time, everyone had recovered from the shock of Fang Gu trying to practice the ball change, and Miyuki squatted in front.

"Let's start with a vertical slider!" Ochiai said casually, and Fukitani nodded obediently.

"Huh?! Vertical! That means there is also a horizontal one!" After hearing this, Sawamura was in a panic. I had just evolved a little, and this guy caught up with me! Damn it!ヽ(`Д′)?

"There's nothing we can do about it!" Ochiai whispered, but Sawamura didn't hear it! ~(ˉ▽ˉ~)~

Thinking about Ochiai's teachings, Furitani clasped the seam of the ball with his middle finger and index finger. Don't move your wrist back, but hold it tight, and throw it like an American football.

In the shocked eyes of everyone, the ball plummeted straight down and fell into the strike zone. It was actually successful in one try! The change was so sharp that he actually entered the strike zone.

Kurosawa looked at Feng Gu with relief, "That's great, Feng Gu, you have taken another step forward!" However, the progress of these two people is really inconsistent with each other! It’s interesting, they are both enemies and friends!

"Your original straight ball is already very powerful. As long as you change the way you hold it and the angle of your wrist, the ball will turn on its own. Don't force the ball to turn." Ochiai warned calmly, and Furiya nodded obediently again.

Kurosawa watched this scene and couldn't help but snicker in his heart, Coach Ochiai, you really overestimate our pitchers! Those two Baga may not remember what you mentioned! Maybe I forgot about it as soon as the game started, but I'm already looking forward to what kind of surprises you two will bring me in the next practice match!

"Don't force the ball to turn. I don't know why this sentence is so convincing!" Sawamura said in a panic. This sentence sounds a bit familiar!

After all, didn’t someone say something similar the night I taught you? Really, it seems I don’t remember it at all! Kurosawa watched Sawamura's reaction and complained silently.

It should be said that he is very good at teaching people. He can always make people grasp the tricks. Is it because he only teaches people what they can do? ! But even so, judging from the results, Coach Ochiai's suggestion came into effect again. Miyuki couldn't help but respect this man. He was so awesome!

Ochiai gave a look to tell you to understand for yourself, Captain, do you think I am particularly reliable now? That’s right, I am such a reliable person!

Kurosawa has already seen clearly that this coach is a very powerful instructor, but his grasp of the players' psychology is not as accurate as Coach Kataoka! The combination of the two of them turned out to be an unexpected fit, and Qingdao's coaching staff has become stronger!

Kataoka and Ohta, who were standing outside watching, also admired Ochiai's coaching ability after being shocked twice. After all, Kataoka sees everything he does. Whether it's teaching the pitchers their own changes or arranging retraining for some players, these are suggestions that can make Seido stronger!

Everyone is increasingly recognizing Coach Ochiai as the coach of Seido, and he has further affected the development of Seido. For now, we are all making steady progress.

No one stands still, and everyone lives a very fulfilling life at Qingdao. Of course, it’s not just Ochiai who’s teaching, Kataoka is also teaching everyone.

For example, when it comes to Maezono's attack, Coach Kataoka really pays attention to the coaching step by step. Even though he still has no contribution on the field now, he still believes that he can play in the future!

Kataoka is also very concerned about Haruichi's blow. He will teach him from time to time and tell him his expectations for him, making him more motivated and making it clear that he and his brother are going to take different paths. .

After watching the fun, Kurosawa went back to practice shooting. Today, his ball control was still a little unstable! You still need to adjust it as soon as possible! Otherwise, you won’t be able to start the next stage, so don’t fall behind!
