Chapter 63: It’s Still Flying
“What happened?”
“Is Seidou’s Coach's brain is broken? How can you replace Miyuki at this time? What if this substitute isn't a catcher?”
“Yeah, even if he has a strong batting strength, it’s not the time. Now the most important thing for Seidou is not to lose points.”
In the stands, many fans who supported Seidou High School raised questions.
Not to mention, many people in Seidou High School’s Second String and Third String don’t know who he is.
“Who is that Senpai?”
“I originally thought he was an ordinary substitute for the First String, and I didn’t see anything special in the practice normally.”
“He replaced Miyuki!”
Looking at the chaotic team, Maezono frowned: “Don’t be confused, the Coach has his own plans. We must trust the Coach.”
Kataoka’s respect is still great.
The Players went silent one by one.
On the field, in the position of the catcher.
Haku looked at this situation and generally saw that something was wrong. Even Seidou’s players were full of doubts about the batter who was on the field instead of Miyuki.
'This is weird~'
'Seidou’s Coach, is his brain really broken?'
Thinking, Haku glanced at Seidou’s dugout. Kataoka was as cold as ever, and most of the players in the first string were also calm.
Although the cheering team made a lot of noise, judging from the reaction in the dugout, the players of Seidou still trusted this guy named Chris.
Being able to gain the trust of his companions, in a Famous school, is itself a proof of strength.
'Treat him like a more troublesome Batter than Miyuki!'
Because there is no batter’s information, and I don’t know what Chris is good at and what he is not good at, matching the ball is completely a venture.
'Give me a Ball first, let's try him out!'
With this thinking, Haku gave Ino a sign.
On the pitching mound, Ino nodded and pitched the ball.
Whoosh!
The small white ball Pitch quickly appeared.
On the strike zone, Chris stepped out and swung his bat directly.
'In the face of an opponent whose strength is unknown, the probability of the first ball is a Pitch to the outside corner is 72.74%, and the probability of throwing a Ball to the outside corner is 66.93%!'
'Because of his weak ball power and offensive Balls in the inner corner, Ino hardly misses.'
'Can bet!'
'The win rate is more than two-thirds!'
With the calculation in hand, Chris swung the bat without hesitation.
Ping!
The white ball was hit and flew out.
The Catcher, Haku’s eyes stared at Chris who was playing with confidence.
'Did you guess the course?'
'It’s useless, even if the ball hits, it’s out of bounds!'
Pak!
The baseball lands against the sideline behind third base, bounces off, and forms a long-running line.
Chris went to second base in one breath.
If it wasn’t for the fielder’s quick reaction and blocking the ball in time, Chris would even have the opportunity to rush to third base directly.
“Awesome!”
“Beautiful!!!”
“As expected of Chris.”
“Cool!”
In the rest area of Seidou, there were countless cheering voices.
Yuuki, Isashiki, Ryosuke, Masuko, and Tanpa, the third-year seniors, all had tears in their eyes.
That Chris, that omnipotent Chris is back.
At second base, Chris himself was happy.
The force and direction of the blow were exactly as he expected.
After a one-year blank period, it seems that his body has not completely rusted.
Chris was targeting the defensive gap behind the third baseman!
Not only the acquaintances, but even the audience and the Players of the Second String and the Third String were dumbfounded.
'After playing, the first ball was hit!'
Chris-senpai, this is a bit too much, isn’t it?
Never heard of this before!
“If it’s just Batting, Chris-senpai might even surpass Miyuki.”
Looking at Chris, Maezono feels like he is seeing the sky!
Such a neat, powerful, and skillful swing, when will he be able to do it?
“As expected of Shisho!”
Sawamura looked at Chris excitedly, and at the same time, a strong fighting spirit rose in his heart.
Since the senior has worked so hard, as a junior, he can’t let his senior's efforts go to waste.
With no Outs, a runner at second base, and Sawamura stood in the strike zone.
After Sawamura stepped into the strike zone, he respectfully greeted the referee.
“Please take care of me!”
Then he looked back at Ino at the mound and Chris at second base.
“Chris-senpai, don’t worry, I will send you back!”
Sawamura suddenly shouted.
God, this is so crazy!
The players from Yokohama glared at Sawamura one by one as if they were going to swallow Sawamura.
The fans in the stands first looked at Sawamura in surprise, and then their faces showed the kind of excited expression unique to the popcorn-eating crowd.
Such an insolent Batter, so interesting!
“Look at you, Demon-King!”
“Come out, boy.”
“We love you!!!”
In the past, they would gently fuel it, but now the people who eat popcorn don’t care, they stand up one by one and shout wildly.
On the field, the catcher, Haku, frowned at Sawamura!
To be honest, even though Sawamura was only in the first year, judging from his previous three hits, Haku did not want to confront Sawamura head-on.
Now that the first base bag is still empty, he has a better chance of winning against the eighth batter behind him than against Sawamura!
Haku originally wanted to Walk Sawamura with four Balls!
Now, definitely not.
At this time, protecting Sawamura will undoubtedly make Seidou’s morale unstoppable. At that time, the other batters of Seidou might also turn into terrifying cannons, killing Yokohama's Victory.
No matter how repulsive you are in your heart, at this time, you can only fight head-to-head!
'Let’s do our best to deal with the batter.'
Haku conveyed his will to Ino, and then the Pitcher nodded and pitched the ball.
To show his fighting spirit, in the first ball, Ino threw his most tricky ball.
A slider that slides out to the outside corner!
Whoosh!
The baseball shoots out.
On the strike zone, Sawamura didn’t take his eyes off the ball for a moment. When he found out that it was a Breaking-ball, he decisively stopped his swing.
SNAP!
“BALL!”
The count, zero Strike, and one Ball!
Sawamura smiled and said to Haku who was behind him, “Are you going to Walk me off?”
Haku frowned but still decided to match the ball according to his own plan.
The second ball: a Strike in the low corner of the inside corner!
'You must be careful with this Pitch. If you want to solve Sawamura, you must have a good count.'
'With this count, we can take advantage for pitch calling.'
Ping!
Not allowing Haku to think about it any further, Sawamura, who had been motionless, suddenly swung his bat.
The white baseball was hit and flew straight out.
Haku glanced at Sawamura in horror.
He guessed it too!
Sawamura’s swing was obviously aimed at the inside corner?
Sawamura threw away his bat and ran forward.
Chris on second base on the other side also stared closely at the ball that flew out.
Yokohama’s left fielder kept backing, backing until he couldn’t back anymore.
His body hit the border wall.
And baseball hasn’t stopped, it’s still flying.
