Chapter 33: Desperate Strike Posture
Sawamura, who was waiting for the fight, let's not talk about it, just talk about the shooting showdown on the field.
Pitcher Mari and hitter Feng Xiang.
These two people are not without a relationship, the two not only have a relationship, but also have a very shallow relationship.
We also mentioned before that Mari and Tsuchihara were originally the main force of the legendary team, Nagano Metropolitan Junior Baseball.
One of them was first baseman and the other was outfielder. Not only the main force of the team, but also the strong player in the team.
But in addition to these two identities, they have other identities at the same time. They are also the backup catchers and backup pitchers of Nagano Toritsu.
This relationship is very clear, the substitute and the main force are always opposite sides.
In other words, Fengxiang Ouichi and Nanami Haruka are the heart knot of Tuyuan and Mari.
It's true that they did a miracle in that national competition three years ago. But after all, that competition was a competition for elementary school students, the sensation caused was limited, and there were not many people who achieved success.
The main shooting partner was remembered, and as for the others, it was impossible for the audience to remember them all.
This is the kind of embarrassment that Tuhara and Mari are facing.
Do you think they have no resentment in their hearts? There must be resentment, but more of it is not resentment, but a hidden fear.
It's like two people fighting when they were young. One person always bullied you and bullied you when he was a child. Even if he grows up, that person is not as powerful as you think, and you will be subconsciously afraid when you see him.
Tochihara and Mari, this is the situation now.
Their hearts are full of unwillingness, and of course they want to take revenge. They are eager to fight Feng Xiangao one by one. Defeat Fengxiang Aoyi and end his inner demon.
But at the same time, when they saw Feng Xiangyi or Qi Hai Yao, there was a trace of fear in their hearts.
Every time they confront these two people, they are subconsciously guilty.
I really want to find a reason, but I can't find anything. But the fact is that, as long as they confronted them, Tsuchihara and Mari's heart was like a needle prick, and the air leaked.
This time they played against Akagi Middle School, and the two of them were mentally prepared before the game. But when they got to the arena, they discovered that this kind of preparation was completely useless.
The moment they saw Feng Xiang, they were still inexplicably guilty, feeling that they were not the opponent's opponent.
Feng Xiang, who was standing on the strike zone, stood in front of the two like a demon. Looking at the tall and straight posture of the other party, the two of them naturally felt a sense of inferiority in their hearts.
Of course they knew that was not the case in reality. Feng Xiang's situation was different from theirs. Feng Xiang had a one-year window period in Chicheng Middle School, and his overall strength was not necessarily better than the two of them now.
But when they saw Feng Xiang, the two of them were still timid, and when Mari was throwing the ball, they both lost their standard.
Mari threw a straight off-center ball, and the ball was smashed through the center of the left fielder and midfielder for a super-long hit.
Feng Xiang went to second base in one breath!
Tuyuan and Mari, the two of them were ashamed to death.
The brothers of the surrounding Akagi Brotherhood raised banners and beat drums.
"Feng Xiang! Feng Xiang!!!"
In the cowshed of Nagano Metropolitan High School.
Fengxiang Longyi looked at Fengxiang Aoyi who was running to second base, and there was a trace of complexity in his eyes.
It seems that all the fans of Chicheng Middle School are happy for Fengxiang Aoyi's hit.
Only at this time, Sawamura, who walked from the waiting area to the attacking area, looked a little ugly.
Fengxiang Aoyi's hit just now almost passed between the two outfielders.
Although this is caused by the pitcher's pitching too sweet, I have to say that Feng Xiang Aoyi hit this ball really beautifully. If he hits this kind of ball, he can become a third base in nine out of ten times.
Even an infield home run.
But just now, when Feng Xiang ran to second base, the ball came back, pinning Feng Xiang firmly on second base.
The left fielder chases the ball and the midfielder runs in the opposite direction, acting as a relay for the outfielder and third baseman.
After the left fielder caught the ball, he immediately passed the ball to the midfielder, who then let the midfielder pass the ball to the third baseman.
This kind of cooperation cannot be practiced in a day or two!
Not to mention that in such a team of middle school students, even in high school competitions, there are not many teams with such qualities.
This is a guard lineup that has been paired together all the year round, cooperates with each other tacitly, and trusts and is familiar with each other among the members.
To play against a team like this, it's not enough to beat the pitcher alone, you have to beat the entire fielding team.
Truly the golden generation!
Sawamura secretly blamed himself, but he was still negligent and underestimated the piece of information he had obtained earlier.
Nagano Metropolitan is great! These guys have been practicing baseball together since elementary school, and they went nationally in sixth grade, finishing runners-up.
After that, although everyone parted ways, Nanami Haruka went to Tenryu Temple, and Feng Xiangou came to Akagi Middle School.
There are also many players who played well, who directly entered the junior club and started to touch the hard ball, instead of playing the soft ball in middle school.
But most of the players still went to Nagano Metropolitan High School!
Although the main shooting partner is missing, the backup shooting is also good. Most importantly, their full garrison remained.
The opponent is strong!
In addition, pitcher Mari's strength is also good, and Akagi Middle School's line-up is another weakness.
All things considered, this game was really a severe test for Akagi. Especially when their scoring ability is relatively weak, this disadvantage becomes more obvious.
There may not be many opportunities for hits in the future, so let's not miss this offensive opportunity.
In any case, this time we have to score points!
Thinking about it, Sawamura put on a bunt stance.
Seeing Sawamura doing this, the little friends of Nagano Metropolitan Middle School had the urge to cry.
They have a deep research on Sawamura. This is only natural, after all, for Nagano Metropolitan Middle School, Sawamura and Qi Haiyao are their key targets.
And as long as you study Sawamura, you won't just study Sawamura's pitching.
As the ace pitcher and fourth bat of Akagi Middle School, Sawamura's batting performance is also very eye-catching.
Among his blows, the most terrifying thing is this state of cheating.
During normal strikes, Sawamura's hitting success rate is terrifyingly high. But not the kind of helpless hitter!
But as long as he puts on such a deceiving posture, he is invincible as a whole.
So far, Sawamura's strike posture has appeared 11 times in total. The hit rate is 100% and never misses.
Tuihara looked at the cowshed of Nagano Metropolitan Middle School with a livid face.
