"Ah."
On the bench, Su Qingping sneezed for no reason.
There must be that bastard plotting against me, Su Qing thought.
At this time, Mei Gong has already stepped into the strike zone.
Tadano was also willing to save face when facing the opponent's first four-ball bat, and first plugged a bad ball to test the way of the ball. Unexpectedly, Umemiya was not calm at all, and he was unwilling to let even the bad ball go. He swung a big stick at one ball, but unfortunately he didn't hit it.
Sure enough, with a glance at the information, can you swing a big stick no matter what kind of ball it is?
Tadano naturally watched Umukumori's first two games. He was a little surprised that Umemiya's performance was not bad despite his repeated swings with the big stick. He always felt that the video was a bit unrealistic.
But try it now, and it's true.This Ukumori's trump card plus four sticks is not the light of some seiyuu, Tadanoki's mind sank.
To be able to play so well even when swinging a big stick every time shows that the hitter’s hitting skills are absolutely good. First of all, the ability to hit the ball and the initial speed of hitting the ball are far superior to ordinary hitters. After all, swinging a big stick requires more preparation time and action time.
Even Su Qing doesn't swing a big stick every time, he only swings a big stick when the pitcher's ball speed is relatively slow.
This test made Tadano directly give up the idea of pulling a straight ball diagonally, and matched it with a straight ball that was biased towards the inside.Unexpectedly, Umemiya did not swing the bat this time, and watched the ball enter Tadano's glove.
"Strike!"
Mei Gong looked at the referee a little strangely. The ball was clearly missed and he could see clearly how it could have been a good ball.
Originally, Mei Gong had the temperament of a bad boy, the kind that the chief judge didn't like very much. Being questioned by Mei Gong, the chief judge was naturally very upset, and just stared at him, what are you looking at?Believe it or not I sent you off!
Mei Gong knew that he would not be able to change the mind of the chief judge even if he looked at the judgment already handed down by the chief judge. Mei Gong was not afraid of this, but he was afraid that he would be stared at by Matsubara after he returned to the rest area. Said, so obediently turned his head back.
At the same time, he took an interesting look at Tadano.If the possibility of the presiding judge's old eyesight is ruled out, then the catcher is playing tricks.
Although Umemiya didn't understand how Tadano did his tricks, he did see some of his small movements.
Naturally, Nanpeng Matsubara, who was in the rest area, couldn't see what happened in the strike zone, but Matsubara still saw the episode between Mei Gong and the chief judge.
Out of trust in Mei Gong, Matsubara's first sense was naturally that there was a problem with the referee's penalty. From Matsubara's point of view, at most, it could be seen that Hirano just threw a curve ball, his preference, and whether it was a strike. He didn't know, but since Mei Gong questioned, it means that it is very likely to be a bad ball.
Matsubara immediately looked at the score book that didn't have many records. In the third batting seat in the second half of the inning, that is, Umemiya threw a curveball at a similar position to Yabe's batting bench. Swing and the referee doesn't give a strike.
Of course, the strike zone error caused by the physical differences between the catchers and hitters of the two sides cannot be ruled out, but there may be other hidden reasons.
Unlike Umemiya, who dismissed Koshien, which he did not attend, this year's Koshien Matsubara was well watched.
Inami and Teito didn't miss a single match. After all, one was their Tokyo Lights, and the other was an opponent they were likely to encounter next summer.
Of course, Daoshi's match was mainly for viewing, and they didn't study it carefully. After all, at that time, they didn't know that they would be so bad-handed in autumn, and they would meet Daoshi in the third round.
But Harada's pulling skills still left a deep impression on Matsubara. A bad ball that was so bad was suddenly turned into a good ball. Anyone who has seen it and knows how to do it will be greatly shocked.
Afterwards, Matsubara also carefully studied the techniques, hoping that his own catchers could learn them, but there were too few materials, and his catchers couldn't imitate them no matter what.
They do lack experience and guidance, so will Daoshi's new catcher be lacking?You must know that Daoshi will participate in the national sports competition this year, and most of the third-year players who retired from the team are still training in the team, including Harada.
At this time, in the auditorium, Harada looked at Watanabe who was not moving the pen in his hand after he sat down, and said a little funny:
"Relax, spying on intelligence can be done by any team. It's not illegal. What can I do with you?"
Watanabe's mood was really terrible. Harada said it lightly, but how could he take it seriously!
"Shouldn't seniors train hard? Daoshi is going to participate in this year's National Sports Competition in ten days or so."
Watanabe secretly reminded Harada that you should go to training and seize the last chance to win glory for the team before graduation, instead of watching the juniors play here.
"The National Sports Competition, if you don't rush, you basically can't win. Our generation of Daoshi doesn't have any good pitchers. Even if the line is relatively complete, it won't go far. There is a high probability that Jumo will win this year. They have enough There are three capable pitchers!”
Watanabe's face changed completely. He said that he would lose before the fight. Is this person in front of him really the captain of Inomi who defeated them this summer? !
And if you think you will lose, you should train hard, right?That's a national sports competition. Although it's not as influential as Jiaziyuan, it's not much worse.
For the school, the gold content of the champion of the national sports competition is no less than that of Jiashiyuan's winning medals. After all, one is established by the state and the other is founded by a private enterprise.
"Don't talk about this, which team do you think will win today's game?"
Harada asked with great interest, but Qingdao only sent one intelligence officer to investigate the match of Inomi.
Harada naturally doesn't think it's the former, so it can only be the latter. Speaking of intelligence personnel, after he left, Inashi's intelligence processing is a bit poor, and he is not worried about intelligence. The intelligence centers of private giants will never Maybe it can’t be said, the bad thing is the intelligence processing aspect.
How to filter out the most beneficial part of the team from a large amount of irrelevant information is very important, and it is also to deduce some hidden problems that may exist from known information.
If the first point is relatively easy to achieve, the second point requires talent. The person who needs to detect intelligence needs to have a pair of careful and conscientious eyes that can discover beauty. Every tiny detail on the court reveals information.
And sometimes this information cannot be seen through the video, and can only be seen more clearly on the spot. So how about this intelligence player in Qingdao?Harada decided to try it out.
Watanabe thought, can he not answer?
Seeing that Watanabe remained silent, Harada smiled and said:
"Don't worry, I've retired from the club, and I can no longer be considered a member of the Daoshi baseball club. You can just treat me as a baseball fan and discuss baseball with you."
I believe you a ghost!
Seeing that Watanabe still didn't speak, Harada was helpless and could only continue watching the game.
On the court, Mei Gong is not impatient. Although he looks impatient and behaves impatiently, it does not mean that he is not rational at all. Before the game starts, he knows that if they want to win this game, It is bound to be a long battle. Daoshi's people need to spend time to understand and conquer him, and he also needs to spend time to understand Daoshi.
Because of the big change of blood, most of the information about Daoshi is basically useless, but fortunately, this brand new Daoshi is not so strong and invincible because Su Qing and Cheng Gongming are not on the field. Solution, not so disappointing.
As long as Keiji Hirano is still pitching the ball, they have a chance to win.
So Meigong is willing to use a batting mat to test whether the strike just now was a problem with the referee or Tadano. If it was Tadano's problem, then they would be in big trouble.
Hitting the strikes well is a problem for them, let alone hitting the bad ones.
Mei Gong felt that he was not a problem. As long as he attacked with strength and swung hard enough, even a bad ball could do wonders.But baseball is not a one-person sport after all. His hit can only make him hit the base. After hitting the base, he can't steal all the way back to the home plate.
Although this new rice catcher doesn't look that strong, it doesn't mean that he can steal home plate, so he needs his own line to help advance.
So now Meigong urgently hopes that there is something wrong with the eyes of the chief judge, not that Tadano is playing tricks.
Tadano was a little surprised that Mei Gong didn't hit a stick. Fortunately, he was prepared to pull the ball in advance with the mentality of staying behind, otherwise it might really be possible to send Mei Gong a bad ball.
After two strikes, there is more maneuverability, but Tadano prefers to use the tiebreaker to decide the outcome, so use this ball.
Unlike Narimiya Ming, Hirano and Tadano were partners when they were in the Second Army. The two knew each other very well and had a good relationship. Naturally, it was impossible to shake their heads at this time.
Hirano decisively agreed to Tadano's allocation, and released the ball after Umemiya was ready.
Influenced by Naruto Naruto, Hirano also practiced a changeup, which may not be comparable to Naruto Naruto or Su Qing's, but for him it is indeed his best pitch now!
"Pong!"
Hirano, who had just landed on his left foot, jumped up immediately after seeing his ball being hit by Umemiya. How could it be possible?
After hitting the ball, Mei Gong started to run non-stop, but during the run, a smile could not help but leak from his face.
It is indeed a good idea to use the changing ball to solve him, but there is obviously a problem with the ball distribution strategy.
Hirano's change-up ball is not like Su Qing's and Narimiya Ming's, which mainly relies on changes to make the batter miss. Hirano's change-up ball does not change much, so it mainly uses the speed difference from the previous ball to make the batter make mistakes in judgment. Swing empty.
But what was the last ball?It was a curveball with not very high speed, and it was difficult to form a significant speed difference with this changeup ball, so Mei Gong caught it.
Relying on this long hit that almost flew out, Meigong ran directly to third base, which can be said to have copied the situation in the second half of Daoshi's first inning.
Umemiya, standing on third base after sliding, raised his fists high and shouted at Ukumori's rest area, and Ukumori's players responded one after another.
No one is out, and there are people on third base, which is basically equivalent to sending a point to Ukumori.
Matsubara clapped his hands in Ukumori's rest area, he knew that Umegong would not let him down, it was neither Su Qing nor Cheng Gongming standing on the mound of Inoshi, it was relatively easy to get this point .
However, after all, Matsubara is only Ukumori's manager, not a supervisor, so the final decision naturally has to be left to Supervisor Yoshimoto Yoshimoto.
The supervisor of Ujiusen was naturally not stupid, and he decisively chose bunt to push forward.
Tadano naturally guarded against Ukumori's forced scoring, but in the end the ball was knocked into the field by Ukumori's five sticks, and Umemiya ran too fast. After picking up the ball, Tadano threw back. He tried his best to fully stretch the glove but failed to touch Mei Gong.
Seeing the chief judge making the safe gesture, and looking at the triumphant Umemiya Seiichi, Tadano felt helpless again. He felt that he was really useless.
"Tada!"
Tatiano raised his head after hearing the voice, and saw Su Qing who ran out of the rest area and shouted at him.
"It's only one point, we are still leading now! And we will continue to score points in the future, don't worry about it!"
Encouraged by Su Qing, Tadano quickly got up, nodded to Su Qing, and then squatted down in the rest area again.
It feels good to have such a person beside him to encourage and support him when he is helpless.But, Mr. Su, my surname is Tadano Naki, not Tada Nanoki.
Obviously the pronunciation is not exactly the same, Tadano has not been able to understand how Su Qing got his surname wrong, but he is unwilling to expose this little misunderstanding.
"Watch out for stolen bases!! Watch out for the first pitch!!"
Su Qing remembered that people in Ujiusen liked to steal bases, so he quickly reminded Tada.
Tadano naturally heard Su Qing's shout, did you steal the base?Then you have to ask his shoulders if he agrees!
No catcher does not want to have strong shoulders, and Tadano is no exception. During training, he practiced passing and killing the most, and he also grasped the strength training of the passing arm very tightly.
No one had stolen a base from him in the previous two games.So if the people of Ukumori want to steal a base, then give it a try!
However, Su Qing reminded Tadano that he couldn't forget it. During the safe period, he still played the first ball with a straight ball. It would be easier to catch a stolen base with a straight ball.
The moment Hirano released the ball, the runner on first base took off.Tadano quickly made preparations to pass the ball and sent the ball to second base the moment he received the ball.
But just after Tada was about to catch the ball, the hitter hit a stick!
Hit and run!
In the rest area of Ukumori, Matsubara smiled again.
When there is a runner on the first base, in order to prevent stealing bases, the catcher will choose to match the straight ball most of the time. At this time, it is naturally better to implement the substitute running tactic.
Even if Tada was in a hurry when the ball was hit by the hitter, he had nothing to do. He could only watch and hope that the loss would not be too great.
Unfortunately, as one wished, the hit baseball passed through the middle of the second baseman and the first baseman and reached the right field defense zone. The right fielder had no choice but to return the ball to home plate to avoid runners Return home run score.
The runner who only ran to first base, saw the right fielder choose to pass the ball to first base, quickly started and rushed to second base, but how could Tadano, who had just returned to home base from first base, be willing!
