NOVEL NEXT Chapter 52: Bunt!
Chapter 52: Bunt!
In middle school, Sawamura was famous for bunts, he always gave people a surprise.
This is not because Sawamura’s bunts are so good. No matter how good you are, a bunt is a bunt, and it doesn’t have the same appeal as a home run.
But Sawamura Eijun’s bunt stance is different from other people’s bunts. Every time Sawamura Eijun puts on this stance, some big change will happen and what happens next is very interesting just thinking about it.
During the entire middle school years, there were not many times when Sawamura used a bunt stance like this. But every time he used it, it became a harbinger of scoring, almost every time it could turn the game around on the field.
According to the data, it seems like he only missed once! Other than that, as long as Sawamura played bunts, he almost scored points.
It was dubbed by the media as his winning charm!
And now, Sawamura put on his winning charm. Those fans who knew Sawamura at the scene and saw the video of Sawamura’s game were naturally excited.
For them, this is at the same level of satisfaction as witnessing history in making.
Sawamura Eijun’s first high school match, they are witnesses.
The audience was both thrilled and excited, looking at Sawamura’s stance, anxiously looking forward to something.
But, the people on the field do not know!
Both Haku and Ino thought that Sawamura chose to bunt at this time to send Miyuki to third base. It’s not that they didn’t think about the idea of Sawamura bluffing, but after passing through their minds, that thought was automatically dismissed by them.
You must know that bluffing is different from hitting with a fixed stance. That requires great swing skill and talent to do.
After all, Sawamura is just a freshman who just graduated. No matter how good he is, he can’t be good at everything. In particular, Sawamura’s position is a pitcher, which requires the most focus.
In three years of middle school, Sawamura can learn about being a pitcher on the mound, which is good. It is impossible to expect him to hone his skills to a very high level in attacking.
With this idea in mind, their calling and pitching are very simple and rude, and the purpose is to fully get Sawamura out. As for double play, if there is a chance, of course, they will not miss it! And even if Miyuki goes to third base, it is not unacceptable.
Most importantly, Take this out on Sawamura first. Of course, as the main catcher of a powerhouse, Haku also considered the possibility that Sawamura would bluff. Although he thought the possibility was very low, he still took precautions.
Just in the face of Sawamura’s bluffing and hitting, his precaution is far from enough.
The moment he saw the opposing pitcher Ino throw the ball, the bat in Sawamura’s hand was retracted.
When the baseball was close to his hand, the bat in his hand swung out again.
Ping!
After the white ball was hit, it was thrown far away.
Baseball bounces between two outfielders
“Gone through!”
“Outfield long hit!!!”
“Strong, this is the Demon-King Sawamura!”
“So cool!”
“Overtake!!”
As the baseball hit by Sawamura Eijun touched the ground, Miyuki didn’t stop for a second, and rushed back to home plate in one breath, helping Seidou High School overtake the opponent and score the third point.
As for Sawamura, he rushed to second base in one go.
One Out, runner on second base!
Seidou High School’s attack is far from over.
However, the strength and coherence they showed in this attack are still eye-catching.
“Too strong, this is the attacking lineup!”
“Like a continuous flood, once it begins, it never ends.”
“Seidou High School’s lineup is a bit scary to begin with, but now with Sawamura, the whole lineup is even tighter.”
“That is to say. In the past, I felt that the first of the line and the middle of the line were stronger, but now even the bottom of the line makes people feel breathless.”
“Sawamura! Sawamura!!!”
In the stands, cheers for Sawamura came from all directions, and the sound enveloped the entire stadium.
The players of the Yokohama-North high school, looking at the amazing scene in front of them, faintly had an illusion, as if they were being double-teamed by the opponent and the stands.
“Damn it, this is too evil.”
“It feels like the home field of Seidou. Do the fans here support Seidou so much?”
“It’s not Seidou that they support, but Sawamura.”
The players were shocked, even the Coach of Yokohama was not much better.
Looking at the one-sided atmosphere around him, he had to doubt the score on the field. The score was only 3:2, and Seidou was only ahead by one point, and this point was just ahead.
It can be felt that the momentum of the stadium has completely inclined towards Seidou High School. As for them, Yokohama-North, they became the jumping clowns who stopped in front of Seidou High School.
‘Damn!’
They were also a Famous high school but it suddenly feels like they are just an up-and-starting team.
The Coach of Yokohama was completely furious. He stared angrily at the students in front of him and roared.
“Don’t be intimidated by the first-year kid, think about who you represent on the field”
You have to give it to the Coach of Yokohama, the man still has not lost his confidence. And with a few words, although shouted a little angry, but the effect is good.
The players of Yokohama re-energized and got serious. Especially the two players who are Battery, Ino, and Haku.
So far, the two have lost a full three points, all three points lost to Seidou High School’s base-running tactics.
“You have to get over it, otherwise this game will be a break.”
Seeing the code that Haku gave him, Ino nodded.
Yeah, how can one fall here? Think about it, they are absolutely unwilling to give up the game at this time after their three years of hard work. And it is only a one-point difference, one run, it will be recovered.
The two of them worked hard, facing Seidou High School’s next line-up, and after a lot of hard work, they finally ended it.
Three outs, offense, and defense exchange.
This round of Seidou High School’s attack gave people a very different feeling. The previous Seidou was very good at that kind of forced-point scoring. Although the whole team also had a high degree of cooperation, that kind of cooperation is a habit that has been accumulated over time.
Generally speaking, Seidou High School’s offense is still dominated by scattered individual hits.
But today’s Seidou is very different. The entire team’s lineup is filled with a tacit spirit.
“I didn’t expect that the joining of Sawamura-kun would make the lineup connect to this level.”
Manager Ota rubbed his hands together and muttered.
Beside him, Kataoka nodded.
To be honest, he never thought that the addition of Sawamura would bring about such a good effect on Seidou’s attacking style.
