Chapter 71: All of Them, Straight Balls!

In Jinzunong High School, the understanding of Wangwang Qingdao High School baseball team is actually very limited.

Of course, they don't think so themselves.

In fact, when they found out that their opponent was the Qingdao High School baseball team, they did nothing else in the past three days and found almost all the information they could find for serious analysis and research.

Sawamura Eijun is very strong!

This point doesn't even need to be read through those materials, every player in the Jinzunong High School baseball team knows it by heart.

You can also tell from watching Sawamura's game video that this guy is indeed strong to another dimension.

Where is Sawamura Eijun the strongest?

The players of the Jinzunong High School baseball team summed up two points.

One of them is Eijun Sawamura's ball speed.

He has an extremely smooth delivery, which includes his ball speed and ball control.

Although his ball speed did not exceed 150, it was already at the top level among his peers.

The ball control is also extremely precise, and basically there are very few easy-to-play balls.

And those are the foundations of a strong pitcher.

The reason why Sawamura Eijun is the Great Demon King.

Of course, it is because he has other qualities besides these foundations.

This has to mention his eccentric ball and colorful changing ball.

This is what Sawamura Eijun makes people most afraid of.

According to legend, Eijun Sawamura once used a total of twenty-seven different changeup balls in three consecutive innings of a game and struck out nine batters.

Of course this is just a legend.

The friends of the Jinzunong High School baseball team searched through the information, but they couldn't find which game this was talking about?

Although this rumor is somewhat exaggerated, it also reveals where the great devil Eijun Sawamura is really strong?

He has his own unique quirk ball,

And colorful changing balls.

It has the foundation of a top pitcher, plus these two plug-ins.

It's no wonder that Sawamura Eijun was able to get along well.

When studying the information of Sawamura Eijun, the players of Jinzunong High School once felt the power of Sawamura Eijun.

It was like a contestant who came out of a cartoon.

So perfect, so strong!

But no matter how perfect and how powerful, this person is still their opponent.

They always find a way to deal with each other.

There are always more solutions than difficulties.

At that time, the friends of the Jinzunong High School baseball team really found a lot of ways.

As for whether these methods can be effective?

That can only be known after the real game.

But there is a way, better than nothing.

So before the game, the members of the Jinzunong High School baseball team believed that they were fully prepared.

Next, let's look at the tactics they had thought up before. Did they work when facing Eijun Sawamura?

After studying Sawamura Eijun's pitching, it is actually easy to draw a conclusion.

That is, although his straight ball is very sharp, he rarely uses it.

Basically, the eccentric balls and the colorful change balls are the main ones.

The occasional straight ball is only to interfere with the opponent's line of sight. It seems that Sawamura has never used the straight ball as his main weapon.

The players of the Jinzunong High School baseball team were extremely excited when they researched this point.

Look.

as long as you try very hard, you can achieve anything.

Nothing is unachievable.

After a lot of hard work, the players of the Jinzunong High School baseball team have studied some habits of Eijun Sawamura?

Although this habit is insignificant, it is also a good phenomenon, isn't it?

Not to mention, besides this, they also saw some other things.

For example, Sawamura Eijun seems to have a special love for Xiu.

There are many times when there is no need to do that.

Sawamura Eijun is in order to achieve his own goals, or for his own little thoughts.

I still don't hesitate to do things that don't seem necessary.

Show off your opponent!

There are many times when he can strike out the opponent directly, but deliberately let the opponent hit the fly ball, and then catch it on the mound himself.

This scene looks really exciting.

Sawamura Eijun's supporters even boasted a nickname for this.

What is it called Ruyan Homing!

This seems to have become the signature action of Eijun Sawamura.

But honestly, what is the need for such a ball?

In addition to showing his precise ball control, he also showed that he has completely seen through his opponent.

Is there any practical use?

No, not at all.

If he did that, it wouldn't have the slightest impact on the game.

But Sawamura Eijun still likes to do it, and he never tires of it.

Sawamura Eijun used this move called Ruyan Homing at least ten times in previous matches.

So this is also a characteristic of his character.

Based on these two points, the players of the Jinzunong High School baseball team were developing tactics before.

The core is to play weird balls and change balls.

It looks like such a choice, haphazard.

Nowhere to be found!

But to be honest, such an idea is not completely unfeasible.

As long as the baseball is subjected to varying degrees of variation, the speed of the ball will also be affected to a certain extent.

In theory, the sharper the change in baseball, the slower the ball must be.

This is in line with the laws of nature.

The reason why the baseball changes sharply is because it has more friction with the air.

After a lot of friction with the air, how can the speed of the ball not be affected?

Furthermore, if you want to throw a change ball, the pitcher needs to make certain gestures and posture changes.

With such awkward gestures and postures, it is impossible for them to throw the ball with the speed of a straight ball.

Sawamura Eijun's ball speed is 145 kilometers, which is the highest rather than the lowest.

If he is based on quirk balls and change balls.

Then it is very rare for him to maintain his ball speed at 140 kilometers.

Even more than 135 kilometers are possible.

This kind of ball, even if it is a player of the Jinzunong High School baseball team, might as well wait.

Wait until the ball is close to your hand before swinging!

That way, they have the potential to hit the ball out.

These thoughts have been thought countless times in the minds of the players of the Jinzunong High School baseball team.

They have even done simulation exercises many times in their own minds.

The results of the simulation exercises are still very good.

Although the big devil's pitching is not trivial, everyone has one head between two arms.

They may not really be afraid of Sawamura.

The idea was very good. When Okawa came on the field, he attacked with such determination.

Ignore Sawamura Eijun's straight ball and concentrate on waiting for his change ball.

When encountering a slower ball, when the baseball is close to his hand, he will swing the bat again.

Well planned.

The next step is to compete head-on with the legendary No. 1 player in the country.

Okawa, who was fully prepared, almost collapsed when he saw Eijun Sawamura throw the first pitch.

They think that they have a very comprehensive plan, and that theoretically speaking, they can definitely deal with Eijun Sawamura.

But when they actually fought, they realized that they were thinking too much!

How could things be as simple as they thought?

First of all, the first point is Eijun Sawamura's wonderful pitching posture.

They have seen such descriptions on the Internet more than once before. Judging from the video, when Sawamura Eijun waved his arms, his hands were indeed raised relatively low.

But when looking at these things from the perspective of God, it is difficult to really see the horror in them.

Just stand on the strike zone and see it from that perspective.

Only then can we truly understand the horror of the Great Demon King Sawamura Eijun.

Don't say one hundred and thirty-five!

In that case, Sawamura Eijun's slowest changing ball may seem to have a ball speed of more than 150.

And that's not the worst part.

What's really scary is that they thought they could just aim at the changing ball.

After the shock of the first ball, Okawa quickly recovered his mentality.

He's not as fragile as he appears to be.

He still wants to play hard to see the change shot thrown by Eijun Sawamura.

What if the blind cat ran into a dead mouse and let him hit it?

At least this will send a message to the friends behind him.

Their previous strategy was not impossible.

Okawa thinks very well, and he really thinks about his little friends.

It's just a pity that he somewhat overestimated his ability.

Facing Sawamura Eijun's extremely sharp pitch, he was quickly defeated.

And from the beginning to the end, Sawamura Eijun never used any change balls or eccentric balls.

He throws straight balls!

This made Okawa, who was determined to swing at the changing ball, unable to make a shot at all.

So quickly struck out.

And it was a strikeout without a swing.

This time he lost face to grandma's house.

Invisibly, it also brought a lot of psychological pressure to the friends behind him.

It turns out that the Great Demon King is really so terrifying.

Those guys on the internet don't seem to be exaggerating, or even understating it.

Judging by how they feel now.

Sawamura Eijun's strength seems to be more than that.

Sawamura Eijun didn't know the opponent's plan, he just watched Okawa's straight ball to the first ball, and he didn't seem to react at all.

So guess, it is difficult for the opponent to shoot his straight ball.

This is the weakness!

What should you do if you discover your opponent's weaknesses and loopholes on the battlefield?

Does that need to be said? Definitely hello to death.

So Sawamura Eijun struck out Okawa with three consecutive straight balls.

Once out, no one hits base.

At this time, it was the second bat of Jinzunong High School's baseball team.

After he played, he showed many similarities with Okawa.

For example, against Sawamura Eijun's straight ball, it's as if he didn't see it.

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!!"

Miyuki, who was on the catcher's position, frowned slightly.

Is this second shot as intimidating as the previous first?

He couldn't help turning his head to look at the expression on the beater's face.

It can be seen that he was really shocked by Sawamura Eijun's pitch.

There was a bit of bewilderment in his eyes.

But not to panic...

In other words, the other party was not really scared out of his wits.

Instead, he deliberately let go of Sawamura Eijun's straight ball, and did not intend to shoot his straight ball.

So it is!

Miyuki Kazuya had a devilish smile on his face.

Then he gave Sawamura the signal for a straight ball.

The opponents that the Seido High School baseball team met before, they like to aim at Sawamura Eijun's ordinary weird ball and straight ball the most.

As a result, they themselves shot less of this kind of ball.

Especially when planning to strike out hitters, it is easy not to use this kind of pitch.

but now.

I don't know which nerve is wrong in the brain of the players of the Jinzunong High School baseball team?

He actually planned to give up Sawamura Eijun's straight ball and concentrate on fighting against Sawamura's change ball.

will that work?

Although he didn't know why the opponent made such a stupid decision, Miyuki had no intention of making them happy.

He decisively gave Sawamura Eijun a straight ball signal.

Then.

"nice shot!"

"nice shot!!"

"strike out!!"

"strike out!!!"
