Chapter 64: Rampage
“Fly out!”
“A two-run homer that flew out of left field.”
“Cool!”
“As expected of Sawamura.”
“The Demon-King is here, the idlers retreat!”
Sawamura hit a two-run homer, sending the stands into a frenzy.
Reverse the home run!
The total score was 6:5, Seidou High School scored in the second half of the eighth inning, causing a reversal.
Sawamura himself was excited to hit a home run. Although he originally aimed to hit the home run, whether he can hit it depends on heaven’s will.
After all, Yokohama’s pitcher Ino was not given the Ace number for nothing.
Ino’s pitching does not have the speed of the ball, his kind pitchers should have the specialness of pitching. But his weapons are also very beneficial, he has precise ball control. A pitcher with ball control can throw the ball to the corners of the strike zone.
If you want to hit such a ball, it is not difficult to hit it.
Yokohama’s battery never thought of borrowing Ino’s pitching to Strikeout the batter. They use the fishing balls to shut out the batter!
Because he was throwing some corner Pitches, even if the Batter hit the ball, his own batting form must have been extremely awkward. Once the striking form is out of balance, naturally there is no way to fully utilize the power of the Batter. Moreover, when such corner Pitches are thrown, they generally fall in front of the defense.
That’s how a ball-controlling pitcher fights!
In the same way, because you want to hit such a ball yourself, you need to have a lot of power. Moreover, the batting form will not be very smooth, so even if such a ball can be hit, it is generally not a good hit, and if a hit is hard, let alone a home run.
Because of his previous life experience, Sawamura must have nothing left to say in terms of batting skills. But it’s also impossible for him to hit the ball to a home run in an awkward batting form!
This also requires guessing. Only by guessing what the pitcher is going to throw can you change your batting stance to suit the path of the ball, and it is possible to hit a home run.
Sawamura guessed the inside corner pitch just now, and he was lucky enough to guess it and hit it out.
So, a two-run homer turned the score in one fell swoop, and Sawamura shone in the field.
The first game in high school was the first round of the Kanto Tournament. Sawamura put on the uniform of the Seidou High School baseball team and represented Seidou High School in the first official game.
In this game, Sawamura’s performance was perfect.
In terms of pitching, he has thrown two innings. He scored a total of six strikeouts, giving the famous Yokohama-North High School three ups and three downs.
On the batting side, he had four at-bats and three hits, including a home run.
Three points!
Such a performance, if this game chooses a player similar to MVP, the best player must be Sawamura no doubt.
The first time he played, he led Seidou to victory.
Although baseball is not a one-person sport, the victory of Seidou High School in this game is definitely inseparable from Sawamura.
“The Demon King is here!”
This headline will become a hit on all high school baseball forums tomorrow! But this is a story for later.
When Sawamura returned to the bench, he was greeted with cheers from his teammates.
At this time, no one will take Sawamura as a rookie anymore, they are teammates fighting side by side. Including Kuramochi, Kominato, and Tanpa who were unhappy with Sawamura before, they were also happy from the bottom of their hearts. (Furuya: I am not!)
The game continues.
Ino, who had just suppressed Seidou High School and only lost three points in seven games, collapsed!
In fact, if you really want to talk about it, you can’t blame him. Since Sawamura won the overtake home run, the spirit that supported Ino dissipated.
Not only him but the spirit of the entire Yokohama-North high school was dissipated.
Think of Sawamura’s pitching, think of Seidou’s defense. Although they are still thinking about fighting bravely, thinking about doing their best, thinking about getting back the score.
But deep down, each of them knew that the game was over.
The pitcher can Strikeout Furano who is not like the other batters in Yokohama and can hit it out on the first match.
According to their own estimates, if they want to get points from Sawamura, they have to go to the third or fourth round of the lineup anyway.
At that time, all of Sawamura’s pitching changes were clear to them, and they had adapted to Sawamura’s pitching form and ball speed.
Then, both sides can stand on the same line to fight.
Adapting, this is barely enough to put the two sides on the same level. It doesn’t mean that if they know Sawamura’s pitching changes and speed and adapting and become familiar with Sawamura’s pitching form, they will definitely be able to hit Sawamura’s pitching.
If that’s the case, Ino, and Tanpa would have been blown up long ago!
And like now, there is absolutely no information about Sawamura in their hands, and if Sawamura is still holding such a sharp weapon.
Not only Yokohama but also other famous teams in the nation will also be helpless with Sawamura.
Sawamura Eijun is not an opponent that you can deal with without any information in your hand and without any psychological preparation!
No one is a fool, Yokohama players realize this, and when they go to a match that is doomed to fail, they will naturally lose their energy.
With that out of the way, the Yokohama tragedy didn’t end there.
Seidou High School’s line-up went completely berserk in the second half of the eighth inning.
First, Sakai came on the field and hit a base. Then Shiratsu launched the hit-and-run and hit the base!
One Out, runners at first and second base!
At this time, Kuramochi went to the strike zone and hit a base.
One Out, full base.
Kominato Ryosuke picks four Balls and goes to base. Abruptly pushed the third base runner to the home plate. (on purpose.)
The total score is 7:5!
Three consecutive hits.
It was raining hits like a hurricane, followed by an assist from the demon Ryosuke Kominato.
At this time, Ino, the pitcher completely collapsed.
Yokohama had to change pitchers.
The new pitcher was a good one, showing extraordinary power and barely getting Isashiki Out.
Two Outs, full base!
It’s the turn of the Captain, Yuuki Tetsuya.
Ping!
Nice long hit.
Shiratsu and Kuramochi returned to home plate. If it weren’t for Ryosuke’s slow speed, he actually has a chance to rush back to home plate.
The total score is 9:5!
Then, in this round, Masuko Toru, who was obviously not in the shape, was shut out.
Yokohama-North High School finally held the game.
In the first half of the ninth inning, Yokohama attacked.
“STRIKE!”
“STRIKE!!”
“STRIKE!!!”
“STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!!”
“STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!!!!!”
“STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!!!!!!!!”
“GAME SET!!”
Nine Pitches, three strikeouts!
Nine strikeouts in a row!!!
Yokohama-North High School is determined to send Sawamura to heaven.
After the first game, if Sawamura could not become famous, then Yokohama players would all go out and buy a piece of tofu and kill him.
After all, they paid an extremely heavy price for the return of the Demon King!
In this way, Seidou High School successfully broke through the first round of the Kanto Tournament.
The next day, Sawamura Eijun’s name resounded throughout Kanto.
