[Miyuki x Sawamura] Casting and arresting evil fate

Chapter 13 Pitching without the Release Point

"Sawamura, there is a practice match, and you are the starting pitcher." Vice Minister Rei Takashima called him aside, "This is the last practice match of this year, and this match will determine the promotion of the remaining two to the first team. For the quota, play a game that you will not regret."

"What about senior Chris? Sure enough, he won't play?"

The deputy minister was a little surprised that he would say this at this time.

"I just learned new pitching, so I can't make great progress, but I still hope that my seniors will be my catchers, because it's the last game!"

"Then be promoted to the 1st Army."

"What about the senior?"

Chris smiled, "If you play professional baseball in the future, you will meet again one day, whether as a partner or as an opponent."

"Do you need Miyuki to help you with the ball?"

"No need! You can still win the game with the 2nd Army."

Of course he didn't understand the meaning of the deputy minister's words, but the other party understood that the two of them hadn't reconciled yet.

"Really, why is Miyuki procrastinating and not reconciling?"

She couldn't help complaining in her heart.

The game finally started.

"Ah, the 2nd Army is actually used against us!"

"Really, I'm still looking forward to a confrontation with Jiang Gu."

The other party looked dissatisfied.

"You have to vote well this time, you know?"

He confidently shouted "Understood!"

"It's good to have spirit, but don't just have spirit."

Of course, there was a problem at the beginning of the game, and the ball couldn't get into the strike zone!The first hitter gets four walks.

"Four Bad... Recommended... How could this happen!"

Sawamura was confused.

"Replace this lousy pitcher! Replace Jiang Gu! Teach him to learn how to hit the strike zone first!"

The other party was full of boos.

"From the red and white battles, it's only going from bad to worse."

This is the voice of the audience outside the stadium.

"How did you throw the ball!"

This is the catcher's reprimand.

"How could this happen! It's terrible!" This is the voice of the opponent's batter who was sitting on the ground in shock, "I thought why he hasn't thrown the ball yet, but the ball is in front of him in an instant! I can't see the release point! The speed of the ball Not fast but terrible!"

At this time, Miyuki rushed in, "Xiaoli, please apply for a pass. I have a few words with Sawamura. Just a few words can completely change the situation and let the ball go into the strike zone and strike out the opponent one after another."

"Really?"

"That's right! It's a mistake that can be corrected immediately!"

Takashima Rei immediately shouted, "Seodo's application for suspension, order!"

Sawamura turned around, and it was Miyuki who came up.

"Catcher exchange? No need, no need~"

"Hear me out!"

His tone suddenly hardened, and Sawamura naturally stopped smiling and obediently accepted it.

"Listen to what you're saying next. Look at the direction of the strike zone. You're too concerned about using your strength to increase the speed of the ball, so the right foot is right for pivoting, but the left foot is off, so the angle of the ball is off. That's it. It's also the reason why you waved the towel on the supervisor's head when you did the simulation exercise."

"You are?"

"Listen to me and don't interrupt! It doesn't matter if the pitch is slow, it doesn't need to be one after another. Take a moment to distract yourself while stepping with your left foot and try to keep your left foot in the right direction of the strike zone so that the ball You can naturally get into the strike zone, understand? Because of the strengthening of the previous training muscles, the speed and power of the ball have increased. The opponent cannot see the shot point, and the first hitter has already been frightened and shaken. There is nothing to fear. Next Don’t you understand that it won’t be so easy to get kicked out?”

He nodded.

"If the game is good, depending on the situation, it is possible for you to shoot the whole game. Xiao Li is very partial to you. Then it will be a matter of course to enter the first team. I will wait for you."

After saying this, he ran back to the rest area, of course he didn't see Sawamura's extremely surprised expression.

"wait for me?"

His eyes are wide open.In other words, are you still willing to serve him as his catcher?Can you think of it this way?

"Now let's play the game well! It's too early to think about the first army and the second army!"

Following the referee's shout of "restart the game", he continued to throw the ball, and this time, according to Miyuki, the ball really went into the strike zone, and the first ball scared the opponent!

"What kind of ghost ball is this? Why can't you see the point of release!" The batter screamed in horror, "It's too scary to see it in the blink of an eye!"

"That's right! The left hand is blocked by the glove, so I can't see the point of release! The ball is in front of my eyes all of a sudden, I don't have time to react! What kind of pitch is this? It's a monster!"

"It's even more monster than Jiang Gu! There are so many monster pitchers in Qingdao this year!"

The situation changed suddenly. Rei Takashima looked over at Miyuki, "What did you say?"

"Tell him that if he hits four bad walks again, he will never practice with him again."

It's obviously not the style of this first-choice catcher to be able to stimulate the pitcher, but since the other party refuses to tell the truth, she can't ask.After the first round of batters, he actually struck out 4 batters.Although he was given a walk from the beginning, it didn't affect the evaluation of him in the slightest.In addition to the strong gang who finally made it through and followed the ball, the weak bats couldn't deal with the screams at all, and those balls that were followed were also resolved by teammates.

"I was still followed by Qiangbang, and the ball is still too sweet."

"If it weren't for a certain piss and quarrel, maybe his game would be more tricky, and this game could become a show."

Miyuki who was being mentioned pouted but didn't make a sound.

"Anyway, the result has been decided, and I'm going to practice independently."

"Don't you see the end?"

"It's not necessary."

He walked out of the training ground on his own.Looking at this trend, Sawamura can really be promoted to the first army.If you can't see the ball at the release point, how should you deal with it if you are the hitter?The current Sawamura is already scary in this regard, and it will be even scarier in the future.He doesn't want to limit a pitcher's development, either as a hitter or as a catcher, because of his inadequacy.

"Chris, will you play in the second round?" Rei Takashima said from the side, "It's just to fulfill Sawamura's wish."

"Ah, thanks."

Then he went to practice.

"Will Senior Chris play in the second round?"

When Jiang Gu conveyed this sentence to the training ground of the 1st Army, there was an explosion here.

"what?"

"Ah! The shoulder is finally healed!"

"I've been waiting for a long time!"

Kuramochi even laughed at Miyuki, "Senior, it's dangerous to be your first catcher."

Looking there, there is still half a figure.

"Senior Miyuki rushed out first."

With the speed of sprinting 2 meters, he rushed to the second army field. How he served Sawamura with the ball was what Miyuki wanted to see most.I thought this was a scene that would never be seen again in high school, but I didn't expect it to come true.And the first round was over when he rushed over, and Chris was leading Sawamura into the bullpen to solidify his pitch before it was his next at-bat.

"Hey! It looks like he hasn't been replaced. But dragging senior Chris to the field is kind enough."

At that time, I didn't feel such a strong embarrassment on the field, but now I relax and face Miyuki, he suddenly becomes extremely embarrassed!After all, he was the one who beat him!How should I answer him now!Chris watched Sawamura's face change rapidly, and finally squeezed out the sentence "Sorry, there is still a game, I will go first." This sentence is really dumbfounding.How serious a conflict did these two have to be so deadlocked?

Miyuki, who guided him to resolve the crisis in an instant, was also a little unhappy.It's really unreasonable that this guy doesn't give himself a step down after working so hard to reconcile.

"Yu Xing, you also entered the bullpen. In the future, you will always be matched, so it's better to confirm."

Now that Chris has spoken, it is naturally impossible for the catcher here to resist.

"Well~ If you want to catch my ball, it's okay to do it once in a while~"

The pitchers here are cocky.

"Anyway, it doesn't matter if I don't catch your ball. Furuya will return to the first army in a while, and Tanba or Kawakami, I'm too busy."

The pitchers here immediately lost their confidence.Indeed, Qingdao has more than one pitcher!This first-choice catcher is a hot commodity.

"If you are willing to obediently say that Miyuki-senpai please catch my ball, I can still consider it."

Seeing that the other party had no more moves, he immediately stepped up, looked at Sawamura out of the corner of his eyes, tilted his head, and looked even more arrogant.Sawamura really had no choice but to bow his head. Who told him to provoke first?Isn't this self-defeating?The corner of the other party's mouth is very curved, and his eyes are narrowed into slits. It is obvious that he is watching a good show and waiting for him to bow his head!

"Sawamura's ball was obviously taught by the supervisor himself. Who did what? Could it be..."

Immediately, the catcher panicked as if he had hit a strong stick, "Stop it!"

"Could it be?"

If you meet someone with a smarter mind, you can completely guess what someone must have done, not to mention that the other party is so nervous, but Sawamura was so dazed that he didn't expect it.

"Who told us to sit next to us for breakfast just to make that certain person jealous?"

Now it's the pitcher's turn to be overwhelmed and yell, "You don't want to say it!"

The two of you looked at me and I looked at you, and they both turned their heads awkwardly and "hummed".

Chris sighed.Miyuki's skills as a catcher are naturally impeccable, but his temper is sometimes too childish and too competitive, especially when it comes to things related to Sawamura.In fact, he has discovered since the elementary school boy entered school that he especially dotes on this pitcher, but the teasing has become even more serious. This kid has such a bad temper.The bullied catcher and pitcher actually reached a consensus and stopped bickering.God knows how embarrassing things will be revealed in front of the other party after bickering again.

"Senior Chris is so black-bellied."

Miyuki pursed her mouth and complained secretly.

"The catcher is really darker than the other! The bigger the bigger the darker!"

Sawamura did not hesitate to classify Miyuki and Chris into the same category to complain.

After entering the cowshed, Miyuki stood behind with his hands on his waist, looking nonchalant.I have already seen what this guy's ball looks like, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

"Okay, remember to throw the ball in the strike zone. Let's try."

Sawamura swallowed his saliva, as expected he would still be nervous when throwing the ball in front of these two people, why is that?Obviously, he used to stick to Miyuki every day before, and he practiced with him all the time.And the other party naturally noticed this stiff expression.It was natural for my heart to twitch, just because of that impulse, the joyful atmosphere between the two was shattered, and the tacit understanding seemed to have disappeared, and I don't know how long it will take to cultivate it again.Chris, who was caught in the middle, could feel the tension of the pitcher in front of him and the embarrassment of the catcher behind him, but since neither of them wanted to talk about it, he was embarrassed to ask directly.

Sawamura breathed a sigh of relief and began to throw. Miyuki, who was not concerned at first, was already surprised before the ball was released.How could it be so slow!And after the shot, I don't even know where the ball came from!It turns out that there is such a big difference between standing in the audience stand and standing in the catcher's stand or hitter's stand to treat the ball!He thought that if he was a hitter, he would definitely be shocked when he saw this ball!This kind of ball is simply too scary!

"Miyuki, if it was you, how would you guide me?"

He rested his chin on his hand when he was asked the question, "First use the ball that can't be seen as a bait to guide, because this kind of shot also has flaws, and if you get used to it in the second round, you may be thrown out. Now The ball speed at the stage is still in the soft ball category and can only be used as a bait."

"Eh? It's still a soft ball! It's obviously struck out so many batters."

"It's just that the opponent is not used to it. If you don't believe me, try again in the second round. It is estimated that there will be more hitters who can follow the ball. By half the inning, maybe all of them will be able to blow your ball out."

Chris paused, "Sawamura don't talk! Let Miyuki analyze it."

"But it doesn't mean that there is no way. Sawamura now has two kinds of balls. It is also feasible to use this kind of ball as bait first, and then make a powerful red center as the decisive ball. Or cooperate with the foreigner according to the way the opponent holds the stick. Corner kick. Another possibility is to match the ball by changing the way of holding the ball, that is to say, the ball is also invisible to the point of release. If the opponent cannot distinguish whether it is a normal pitch or a four-seam straight ball, then it will knock out the opponent's strong stick The possibility of the game will be greatly increased. There are many combinations, and we still have many chances to win."

"That is to say, just because Sawamura learned the four-seamed straight line and this pitching method, the balls you can match have expanded a lot at once, right?"

"Well. There is also the natural movement of the ball. Of course, Sawamura can't throw it freely, but as long as it happens a few times, it is enough to cause a shadow in the opponent's mind if it is combined with a shot that cannot see the release point. And the shot cannot be seen. It means that we can’t pick the ball, which is good for us. Of course, the ball is still too sweet, and if you hit the line and swing fast, the possibility of such a sweet ball being blown out is still very high.”

Chris stood up, "Then you will be the catcher and I will watch you serve the ball from behind."

Both of them looked at Chris with an "Huh?"

"Didn't it go well to practice together before? Isn't it normal for you?"

He thought he should thank the two of them for not telling him the whole story.Since the two of them don't want to mention it so much, it's okay to pretend that they don't know.

The two of you looked at me and I looked at you, and they both reached a consensus in their hearts. Chris, the catcher, really looks white on the outside but is black on the inside!

"I'm OK."

"I can too."

Miyuki adjusted his mood, took the gloves and squatted down.

"Try to throw in with a four-slit straight grip first."

"okay."

Although it was a bad shot, it got into the strike zone anyway.

"Next, the usual grip."

"okay."

You can also get into the strike zone this way.

"Okay, for the time being, these two types of balls will be used, and the red middle will be added at the end. Remember to confirm the code. My comparison with 2 is a ball with a normal grip that cannot see the release point. My comparison with 1 is the four-slit straight line with no release point. , Do you understand that I am more than 2? My position will be different depending on the hitter, and I may also encounter situations where I have to shoot an outside corner kick. Your ball speed is still relatively slow, so don't use ordinary throwing methods for the time being .Use it after you learn other changing balls, temporarily seal it."

"What about the moving ball you were talking about? Doesn't it count?"

"Even if I deserve it, can you cast it as you like?"

After being said this, it was Sawamura's turn to be unhappy.

"No matter how you look at it, I still feel that you two have a tacit understanding."

Only then did the two notice that Chris was there.

"Senior, why don't you cooperate with Sawamura? After all, I belong to the first army, so I won't participate in this competition."

Xiaochun came to call for someone, and Miyuki watched the two of them walk to the court.

"Sawamura." He stopped the kid from behind, "This is the first and last time. Play a game that you won't regret."

"Luo... Wordy! I will!"

He sighed, he was still so willful in the end, obviously the relationship was not so awkward before.After watching the game from the sidelines, Sawamura really threw the whole game.Although some of the matches were different from what he had imagined, as expected of Chris-senpai, Miyuki also learned a lot from his ingenious matchmaking.

"Senior Chris is really good, I really want to fight him upright."

Seeing the team win, he applauded.Looking at the situation this time, it seems that Sawamura can be promoted to the first army.
