Kapitel 140: Chapter 16: Secret Test
"Tell me!"
Superintendent Kataoka was obviously very interested in this topic, so he gestured for Miyuki to continue.
Chris looked thoughtful next to him.
Miyauchi Keisuke couldn't believe it.
Can Kawakami also compete for the Ace number?
Even if you are joking and talking nonsense, you have to have a limit.
Miyauchi Keisuke did not deny Kawakami's strength. On the contrary, because he partnered with Kawakami before, he recognized Kawakami's strength very much and even thought that if Kawakami was in a normal team, he could also be the Ace.
But it is a pity that Seidou High School is not an ordinary team, they are a Powerhouse!
If the team really lacks pitchers, it is not impossible for Kawakami to reluctantly be in the Ace position.
But Seidou's current situation is not that there are no Ace pitchers. On the contrary, Seidou High School is now two good pitchers fighting for the Ace number.
Tanpa Koichiro and Sawamura Eijun.
Either way, these two are more suitable for the Ace than Kawakami.
Especially Sawamura!
Sawamura has all the characteristics of Kawakami and is even better than Kawakami.
Under such circumstances, what do you want Kawakami to use to compete for the trump card?
"During the previous Kanto tournament, we have seen other teams and Aces. And I think everyone has understood something. The Ace pitcher does not necessarily have to pitch sharply. Accurate ball control and flexible breaking balls are already very powerful weapons in themselves. Combined with the team's defensive power can also control the loss of points within a certain range. I think that even if Kawakami is the Ace, there is nothing wrong. He is stronger than most of the opponents we encountered in the Kanto tournament. He is a pitcher who is a side thrower. Take advantage of this, and I believe he can also be a very strong fighting force."
Miyauchi looked at Miyuki in surprise.
He doesn't understand why Miyuki insists on this. According to this, any pitcher with such characteristics can be an Ace?
Nevertheless, at the end of the day, don't you still need to compare?
In contrast, among the three pitchers, Kawakami has only disadvantages and no advantage, right?
Seeing the confused Miyauchi, Chris sighed secretly.
Although Miyauchi himself already has very good Skills, his batting is also excellent, his catching skills and his ability to restrain, as a catcher he leaves nothing to be said.
But in the competition with Miyuki Kazuya, Miyauchi Keisuke has always been at a disadvantage, which is not without reason.
He is so dull!
As a player in the same grade and position, Chris didn't want to judge his teammate so harshly. But to be honest, Miyauchi is really dull.
He didn't even know what the examiner here is testing, so he answered the questions differently.
Of the three pitchers on the team, who is more suited to be the Ace? Does Coach Kataoka need to know their opinions?
The answer is, of course, NO, and who knows better than Kataoka about these three pitchers on the team?
He is looking at their performance all day long. How many years has he been looking forward to finally getting such a good team?
For the choice of the Ace, would he have not decided in his mind already?
So this is not the pitchers he is asking about at all here.
Although Kataoka was asking questions about pitchers, however, he was actually testing them, the catchers.
When your partner is Tanpa, Kawakami, or Sawamura, what kind of approach will you take to lead them in the game?
Originally, Miyauchi's answer was in the middle of the norm, so it wouldn't be a plus point, but it wouldn't be a minus point either.
Nevertheless, his current expression completely sold out all the thoughts in his mind.
The original mid-range answer now may have also become a minus.
Simply speaking of the main battle between the Miyauchi and Miyuki, he is almost out.
Miyuki was originally the main catcher in the team, and only if Miyauchi performed better than Miyuki, he would be able to get the main position.
Now, not to mention that he performed better than Miyuki, he also took the initiative to reduce points from his evaluation…
Kataoka didn't say anything. After listening to Miyuki, he nodded and continued to ask.
"How is Sawamura?"
Hearing this question, Miyuki and Chris were still shocked even though they had expected Kataoka to ask.
They know that the real test begins.
Despite the still-ongoing debate among the coaching staff for the ownership of No. 1. Sawamura's position as an Ace has been determined.
At the Kanto Tournament, Sawamura used his performance to win this position for himself.
In the first string, whether it is the third-year players, the second-year players, or even two first-year players.
It is recognized that Sawamura will become the Ace.
Even Furuya Satoru might not be convinced verbally. He must also know in his mind that with the gap between him and Sawamura now, he can't replace Sawamura as the Ace.
After all, pitchers' job are more than just throwing.
Even if Furuya is confident in his pitching, he won't be so over his head that he thinks he will perform better than Sawamura on the mound.
It has nothing to do with natural talent.
It's like you are taking exams with someone. By the time you took the hundredth exam, and you still got a less grades than him every time. Even if you think that your IQ is not lower than his, you have to admit that the other party's academic performance is definitely better than yours.
Asking about Sawamura's evaluation is the key to this test.
Chris was the first to speak.
"Very good! I think now Sawamura can be the Ace in our team."
This is the final conclusion.
This conclusion was obviously approved by Kataoka, and he nodded for Chris to continue.
"The fastest speed of the ball is 138 km/h currently, and his ball control can divide the strike zone into four squares. With the four squares, he can divide the strike zone into high and low, inside and outside, and throw precisely.
With the ball's power and his unique pitching form. It makes Sawamura's Straight ball very sharp! I think the Straight ball should be his main pitch, and the Change-up should be the complement. With this, he can improve to the next level. And not only pitching, his batting is also very good. He is adapting to the new batting style, now for him, it's just a matter of focusing on building his strength."
After Chris finished speaking, Kataoka nodded expressionlessly and then set his eyes on Miyuki.
Miyuki smiled wryly.
Chris has said all he has to say, what more can he say?
For Sawamura, it is ideal to focus on Straight balls.
His Straight ball itself is a very sharp weapon, and the most important thing is that the Straight ball is stable.
Don't underestimate this word. On the mound, steady is sometimes more useful than sharp.
"Sawamura's character and experience are also very good weapons. Not everyone has the experience of winning the national championship, and twice at that. I believe that Sawamura's experience will definitely bring different changes to our team."
Chris and Miyuki, one of them talked about his skills and the other about his experience.
In a word, in the current Seidou High School, the most suitable Ace is Sawamura Eijun!
"What do you think?"
After listening to the analysis of the two, Kataoka did not speak and turned to look at Miyauchi.
The problem is, that Miyauchi has no idea!
