King's Green Road

Chapter 40 Part40 Mingchuan College ([-])
"Senior Feng, Qing Dao's first-year pitching looks really good!"

After seeing this pitch, Akiko Owada also believed that Qingdou really had a first-year pitcher who was equally talented besides fastball.

"Well, I didn't expect Director Kataoka to unexpectedly receive two such excellent pitchers this year. It seems that the lack of Seidou's pitching team must be made up for!"

Fujio Mine is also thankful for Supervisor Kataoka, and finally met an excellent pitcher this year.

. . . . . . . .

True or not, the weight of the ball is so heavy, coupled with the invisible release point, it is too difficult to grasp the timing of the strike.

Ninomiya really didn't expect such a pitch, it was completely different from what he imagined, the weight of the ball can be said to be close to that of Qingdao's fastball pitcher.

Although the initial plan was to spend a round of getting used to it, but he felt that it might not be that easy.

Ninomiya adjusted his stance, holding the bat a little shorter.

Miyuki, who was squatting at the home plate below, saw Ming Chuan's reaction to the first bat as he expected, hehe, then it will be easy to deal with this hitter next! (￣▽￣)~*
Although it was just a one-ball test, Miyuki has indeed seen the batter's movements from the various small details of the batter's movements. This is one of Miyuki's talents as a top catcher in high school.

After all, after Chris was injured, he was directly supervised by Kataoka and surpassed the seniors, and was awarded the Seidou Zheng catcher in the first grade. How could it be possible without such strong observation and strength.

The second ball, the low straight ball from the outer corner, is still controlled at the edge of the strike zone and the bad zone, Sawamura.

Miyuki gestured a few more times with his right hand below.

Eijun on the mound nodded to show he understood.

Eijun raised his arm again and waved, a white light flashed, leaping out from between Eijun's arms.

"call out!!"

"Oh!"

After Ninomiya judged the path of the ball, he hesitated for a moment before watching the ball enter Miyuki's sleeve at the back.

"2 strike!"

Ninomiya turned his head and glanced at the referee in disbelief. He himself felt that this would be a bad shot, but it turned out to be a good shot? His ball control is so good.

o(Д)っ!
"Is there a problem? Classmate!" The referee asked with concern after seeing Mingchuan's batterer's strange expression.

"Ah, no problem, sorry."

Ninomiya sorted out his emotions. He knew that if he defended a good or bad ball with the referee in this kind of thing, he was purely full of food and might be punished. He had better deal with the next ball well. ball up.

Fortunately, it seems that the referee's judgment of good and bad shots is still relatively loose, but the main reason is that this guy Sawamura's ability to control the ball is quite in place, there is no obvious deviation, and all shots are in the positions he wants. There is no need at all. Moving his ball cover to chase the ball left a good enough impression on the referee.

The third ball, Sawamura, let's send this Mingchuan hitter back. The low straight ball from the inside corner should go into the strike zone.

After Eijun saw the meaning of Miyuki's code, he curled his lips, his personality is really bad, although he himself actually has such a personality now.

"call out!"

Facing the third ball, Ninomiya can feel that the ball has entered the strike zone based on his own experience. He has to make a swing, otherwise he will really strike out and be out, that's right.

After Ninomiya gritted his teeth and swung his bat, he perfectly followed the white baseball that flew above the home plate, passing by as if in two spaces that seemed to intersect but actually had no connection at all, and got into the catcher's holster .

"Boom, pop!!"

"Strike, strike out!!!"

Without any surprise, Ming Chuan's first hitter was out of the game with three balls and three strikes out of sheer strength.

"One out!"

"Good job, Sawamura!"

"Okay, I'm in a good state recently!!!"

"nice shot!!"

Damn it, Ninomiya took a deep look at Eijun before leaving the strike zone. This guy's ball control ability is not inferior to Shun's. What a tricky guy.

After experiencing the second palace, Yang Shunchen and Supervisor Ogata on Mingchuan's bench also realized that this pitcher is indeed several steps higher than the previous fastball pitcher.

"This first-year pitcher in Qingdao is unexpectedly tricky!" Supervisor Ogata also said with a slightly ugly face.

"Well, we can only slowly see if we can find the weakness of this first-year Qingdao in the next lineup."

Yang Shunchen also felt that he could only face this pitcher with this mentality. Even he has not seen the obvious shortcomings of this first-year pitcher.

"call out!!"

"boom!!!!"

"Center!" Miyuki stood up very calmly, and reminded Jun Isashiki, who was on defense in the outfield, to pay attention to catching the ball. There was no surprise that he would be caught smoothly, and he was sure that it would never be a hit.

"No problem!" Isashiki Jun has no pressure to catch this kind of fixed-point high-fly ball.

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

After receiving the base referee's confirmation of the placement of the baseball, the referee also announced the cruel result for Mingchuan.

Second baseman Ming Chuan's third baseman Hashimoto's face was full of astonishment. (ΩДΩ)
He was caught out with a direct kick.

Although Hashimoto has been told that this pitcher can’t see the pitch point, the speed of the ball he saw is about 140-3km faster than the actual speed of about 5km/h. The quality of the ball is also expected to be heavy, so the grip is short the bat.

As a result, when he saw a sweet ball in the inner corner that suddenly appeared, he couldn't help swinging the bat, forgetting that the supervisor wanted to observe first, and the bat hit the baseball. However, the ball is not as heavy as imagined.

Knowing that the ball is heavy, he used too much strength, but the ball turned into a high-flying ball in the middle field.

He watched helplessly as the baseball leaped tens of meters, then fell powerlessly, and was directly caught and killed by the strong player in Qingdao who had been waiting there for a long time. (T▽T)
It is not surprising that Mingchuan's second shot was caught, because it was completely the result of the careful design of the shooting partners Miyuki and Eijun.

You must know that when Eijun entered Qingdao, the biggest gain in pitching practice is that he can disassemble the heavy ball quality and the characteristics of his eccentric ball and combine them with ease.

Miyuki is also bad-hearted. After giving the first club information about the characteristics of Eijun’s heavy ball quality, the information will naturally be shared. Then the second club faced a sudden appearance of a good shot. Combined with the information of the first club, the force was excessive. Naturally, this kind of high fly will be played.

"It's really easy to get two outs!!"

"This first-year's ball control ability is really good. The ball control ability at the corners accurately casts to the position required by Miyuki."

"Mingchuan's players are quite a headache now."

"Hehe, it's very possible!!"

"It seems that this year's Qingdao is going to get rid of the weakness of the previous pitching line."

The audience in the stands also showed great recognition for Qingdao's first-year pitcher, and they were no longer full of doubts and distrust as they were at the beginning.

Although the audience in the stands who supported Qingdao had a very good evaluation of Eijun's pitching, but because there was a game in the second game, the third high school of the city also came to watch the game.

Seeing Eijun's outstanding performance on the mound, the dignified look in his eyes was clearly visible. To them, Seidou really is a big enemy!

"Third bat, shortstop, Onishi."

While the audience was whispering, Eijun also ushered in his third hitter from Ming Chuan in the first half of the first inning.

To be honest, Ming Chuan's players are really not good at hitting. Compared with his seniors, the hitting is really second-rate. How could their seniors be so restrained in his pitching, especially Zhe team and Senior Ornisan Xiaomao.

The starting pitcher mound, pitching in his first official game, can be said to be without pressure. After all, he has been in society for many years, so it is strange to be cowardly and timid.

Facing the next Ming Chuan's third blow, Miyuki didn't bother to spend too much energy to deal with it, after all, he was a little panicked and didn't know how to make a move.

It was only two goals, a low straight ball from the inside corner, and a bold red straight ball, and they chased the third bat Onishi. When facing the third ball, there was a fatal misjudgment.

Swing at a ball low in the outside corner off the strike zone and get struck out too.

So far, in the first half of the first inning, with Eijun's mere seven balls, he quickly and neatly hit Mingchuan's top three hitters. None of the hitters could hit the ball well.

Ming Chuan's bench was also hit a bit, but because of their spiritual pillar-Yang Shun-chen, they would not immediately appear decadent, and their trump card was also very powerful.

At this time, in the west stand, several teenagers in gray clothes stood side by side at the top of the stand, looking at the game below with confidence and pride. The team is also very confident.

These few spectators are not strangers, they are the players of the city's third high school, one of the three famous schools in West Tokyo, the trump card is really important, the captain Takahiro Omae and others.

"Pitching is very characteristic, and the rhythm is also very good."

As a pitcher, Makasaka also understands Eijun's potential and strength as a pitcher.

"This pitcher seemed to have appeared in the previous Kanto competition, but he didn't play. This should be the first starting pitcher in this first-year game. Overall, he is still a very good player."

"The most important thing is that this pitcher also allowed Miyuki to display his skills very well. Unlike that fastball pitcher, the cooperation between the two of them can be said to be quite tacit. No wonder they can be delivered to the starting lineup. pitcher."

Captain Takahiro Mae also expressed his admiration for this first-year pitcher very pertinently.

"Facing such a pitcher, it is very difficult for Mingchuan Academy to score. After all, there is Danba behind Qingdao. With a stable pitcher like Kawakami, it is up to Mingchuan's ace pitcher, Yang Shunchen, to suppress him. The scoring level of Qingdao's laning has reached."

Zhenzhong wants to be worried about his good friend Danbo who has come to the fourth round and has not yet pitched. After all, even if the opponent is not strong, he still needs to maintain a certain sense of the game.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to get back to the state when pitching in the second half of the game.

"That's right."

The other main players of the city's junior high school also had the same idea.

. . . . . . .

"Sawamura, you voted well just now." Miyuki also praised Eijun in a rare way when the game was changed.

"Oh, thank you! Senior."

Miyuki looked at Eijun who was so polite and innocent, with a silly smile, and knew that there must be other Seido players approaching behind him.

Just as he thought, it was Senior Chris who came to them at this time.

"Eijun, you performed very well in that round just now!" Chris was very happy for Eijun who had such a dazzling performance in the first official game, after all, he was his favorite elementary school boy.

"Yeah, I will continue to work hard, Senior Chris." (o▽)o
Cut, it's really a dog's leg, and it's too unsatisfactory for myself and Senior Chris.

"It seems that Senior Chris is the one who can make Sawamura the most obedient. Oh, it's not like me. I can't order him without trying my best." Put on eye drops.

"Hehe, as long as Miyuki knows more about Eijun, he will know that he is a very good boy."

Chris treats his two juniors as disrespectful to each other, and he is just pampering and tolerant. It's really almost the same as a brat who sees his own unreasonable troubles.

"Well, Senior Chris is right."

Damn, this guy Sawamura is really ruthless, he just said something small about him, but he stepped on him, how ruthless!

For Miyuki who was stepped on by him, Eijun just pretended to take back his sinful little foot carelessly, without apologizing at all, he was extremely arrogant.hum(.-`ω-)
He took note of this dumb loss, so just wait. (╬￣dish￣)
"The next pitch, Miyuki, you two have to be careful, don't be caught by the opponent."

"Don't worry, I'm prepared for this, senior." Said about the matter, Miyuki also took it seriously, "Mingchuan's hitters want to be familiar with this guy Sawamura's ball, but it's not that easy."

"Yes, yes, I am very good, Chris-senpai."ヾ(▽)ノ

A look of pride begging for praise.

"Hahaha, then Eijun will continue to work hard and shoot hard!"

"yes!!"(*/\*)
"Then it's time for Mingchuan's defense, Yang Shunchen's pitching, Jiang Gu, and Rongchun, you all have to learn more about their strengths." Chris looked at Mingchuan who was ready to play, especially the ace Yang Shun Chen, I mentioned two elementary school boys.

"Yes, senior!"
