Chapitre 10: Chapter 10: Teaching sawamura
While!
Masuko's metal rod accurately hit the straight ball thrown by Sawamura with all his strength!
Shout!
The baseball was beaten high and flew out!
It wasn't until it hit the outfield fence that the flight stopped!
And this time!
The fence that hit belongs to the boundary!
"Oooh!"
"Out!"
"Hit a home run!"
"Didn't that ball deviate from the center just now?"
"Yes! However, Masuko obviously carried it out with brute force! "
After watching Masuko's shot, the audience was shocked.
"Whew..."
"If the hitting point is a little bit off..."
"Then it will become a high-flying ball in the outfield, and then be picked up by the outfielder..."
Masukoto, who was running to the basebag, felt very lucky.
Just that goal.
The timing of the corner was obviously ahead of the first two goals.
Fortunately, he is strong enough, otherwise he would be eliminated 100%.
"By..."
"Perfectly beaten out..."
"The tiebreaker I threw with all my might..."
"Is this a showdown of powers?"
"This is..."
"Top level high school baseball in the country..."
"Haha..."
"That's awesome!"
Sawamura clenched his fists and had a smile on his face.
Apparently.
Masuko's home run not only did not make him depressed, but made Sawamura feel extremely excited because he encountered a strong enemy.
Such an attitude.
Let the audience, seniors, coaches, are a little shocked.
Of course.
Some people think that Sawamura may be forcing a smile.
But in the following matches, Sawamura's performance remained steady.
It's basically just one ball.
The second and third grade batsmen will be eliminated.
And if one goal does not work, it is two goals at most.
"It's good that courage is commendable."
In the cowshed, Asad put his hands in his pockets and said in his heart: "But if you don't even know why you were hit a home run, you won't get the slightest improvement." "
"When the game is over, just talk to him."
"Yet."
"There is still some time before the end of the game, so you can go to the B court first to practice your physical fitness."
Think of this.
Asad took his things and walked towards the door of Stadium A.
"Don't you look at it?"
Miyuki also asked curiously.
"I've seen everything that should have been seen."
"The next game, I'm not interested."
"Instead of continuing to stand silly here, you should exercise your fitness and possession of the ball."
Asad waved goodbye without looking back.
"This kid..."
The corners of Miyuki's mouth turned up slightly.
For this kind of monster junior who practices independently, he still likes it very much.
...
When Asad was training.
The intra-team match at Stadium A is also in full swing.
Despite the momentum of the freshman team, it is still quite difficult to get points from the hands of senior students.
Hit to the end.
Nor did he get any more points.
And Sawamura's performance is eye-catching.
He shot several innings in a row, but only scored two or three points by the senior students.
Compared to those first-year pitchers who lost nine/ten points in one inning, it was already remarkable.
So!
Promoted to the second army by the head coach!
In addition to Sawamura, Kominato Haruichi was also promoted to the second army because of his good garrison ability and strike ability!
...
Night.
Seido high.
Asad walked to dormitory No. 5 and called Sawamura out.
"What's wrong?"
Sawamura asked curiously.
"After a long period of observation, every time your straight ball flies to the batter, it drifts."
Asad said straight to the point.
"Huh? Have it? "
Sawamura asked in amazement.
"In today's game, after you said you were going to shoot a straight ball in the middle."
"The catcher always puts the glove right in the middle, but your pitch hits the edge of the glove."
"And this has happened several times."
"If you don't believe it, just do an experiment."
Say it.
Asad turned around and walked towards the indoor practice range.
Sawamura frowned and recalled, and found that it was really the same as ASAD said.
To determine this matter.
Sawamura quickly followed Asad.
The dormitory is not far from the indoor driving range, so it was quick to arrive.
"Okay."
"You aim at it and cast it."
"If you can shoot, prove that your straight ball won't turn a corner."
"If you can't hit it, it proves that your straight ball will drift."
"Remember."
"Go all out."
"Don't stay hard for the sake of hitting it."
"If you don't do it on this condition, then this test is meaningless."
As Asad put the empty drink bottle he brought from the dormitory on the ground, and then said to sawamura.
"Good."
Sawamura nodded.
He took out a baseball from a frame on the side.
Immediately walk to the pitcher's mound, aim for the empty bottle, and throw the ball with all your might.
Shout!
Baseballs fly out fast!
But when he was about to hit the empty bottle, he turned a corner without warning!
"Look!"
"Turned!"
Asad spread his hands.
"!!!"
Sawamura's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
He....
His straight ball....
There really was a drift....
"Of course, one turn doesn't prove anything, you can throw more than once."
Asad said with a smile.
"That's what I thought!"
Sawamura picked up the second ball and continued to throw it at the empty bottle.
And yet....
Missed....
Third goal!
Still not hit!
Fourth goal!
Still missed!
Nth ball!
Turn around again and dodge the bottle!
...
Twenty or thirty times in a row.
Sawamura did not hit a drink bottle once.
Or rather.
Every ball thrown.
When approaching the beverage bottle, drift occurs.
And the direction of drift.
is a random location.
It could be up, it could be down, it could be left/right.
"Do you believe it?"
Asad asked.
"Hmm!"
"I didn't expect my pitch to be so unique!"
Sawamura said excitedly.
"You're happy too early!"
Asad shook his head and said, "The reason why your straight ball drifts is only because when throwing the ball, the grip of the ball is not fixed, which will cause the thrown ball to drift up/down/left/right!" "
"And!"
"Most of your pitches, the timing of the turn is late!"
"So Senior Masuko deliberately stood at the front of the strike zone after discovering your straight ball secret!"
"To hit the ball before you turn a corner!"
Hear this.
Sawamura was taken aback.
He said how Masuko was different from others.
Not only the front of the station....
And deliberately hold the bat short....
"If you don't change, wait until someone else sees through your straight ball secret.
Later words.
Asad hasn't said it yet.
But Sawamura only felt a chill in his back, and was even scared out of a cold sweat.
"I..."
"What should I do?"
In a panic, Sawamura subconsciously asked Asad.
"It's simple."
"Find a way to take advantage of the earlier turn."
"If you throw the ball in the third blow of Senior Masuko, and turn a corner earlier, he will be 100% empty!"
Asad said with a smile.
Of course, having said that, he didn't know if masuko would be empty.
But.
To convince Sawamura.
Be sure to use a little exaggerated description.
Anyway.
Master a turning point.
and master multiple turns.
You don't need to think about it, it must be the latter that has more advantages.
"Makes sense!"
Sawamura nodded in understanding.
"Except for the change in timing."
"The direction of the turn, you also have to master."
"After all!"
"Random corners, although they will make the opponent unpredictable, but if you throw a ball in front of a beater who is good at outside corners, and it just floats to the outside corner, isn't this a chance for the opposite side?"
"But..."
"If you can control the direction of drift, then you can throw the ball in the inside corner in front of the beater who is good at outside corners!"
"In this case, the opponent will be very uncomfortable!"
In order for Sawamura to understand, Asad tried to teach in the simplest words.
"By the way, your game today made a lot of low-level mistakes that shouldn't have happened!"
"So I left the coach with an impression that the foundation is very poor!"
"In any sport, the basics are the most important!"
"If you want to rise to the first army."
"You have to polish your foundation."
"And the best way to improve your foundation is to read more baseball primers and baseball progression books, as well as baseball instructional videos."
"Okay, I've said everything that needs to be said."
"As for how to do it, it's your business."
"I also have to exercise my physical fitness, so I take a step first."
Say it.
While Asad was thinking about his words in Sawamura, he picked up the empty drink bottle and left the indoor practice room.
