Ace of Diamonds: A world-class speedball signed at the start

"It's a natural displacement ball, though."

"But the ball is not that fast."

"Just swing the bat the moment before the ball reaches your hand, and you can ignore the displacement of the ball!"

"Although doing so will cause some deviations in the point of impact."

"But with the strength of our players, even if they are squeezed by the ball, they will definitely be able to play with strength!"

Coach Matsumoto thought to himself as he looked at the first hitter who walked towards the batting seat.

Trample...... Trample......

Kiryu's batters walked to the batter's seat on the right and stood in the front position.

"Huh?"

Miyuki's brows furrowed slightly.

"Actually standing at the front of the batting zone..."

"Did they discover Sawamura's ball path so quickly?"

"It's obviously only one game..."

"It's a terrible team!"

"In this way, you can't shoot a good ball!"

Think of this.

Miyuki looked at Sawamura with some concern.

Although he knows what to do now, Danzamura's possession...

Alas......

"I can only resign myself to fate!"

Thinking so, Miyuki placed the glove on the inner corner area again.

"I'm going to throw it in!"

"Inside corner..."

Sawamura threw the ball with all his might with a focused look.

Huh——

"Reverse direction!"

Miyuki's pupils shrank.

It is clear that Sawamura cast the inner corner.

Sawamura, who was not strong enough to control the ball, was stunned and shot into the outside corner.

"Fight out!"

Coach Matsumoto's eyes widened and he shouted in his heart.

While!

Kiryu's batter immediately swung the bat and hit the ball with precision.

Shout!

The baseball sped to the ground in front of third base.

And then it bounces up violently!

The speed is extremely fast, and Zengzi, who is the third baseman, does not have time to pick it up with gloves, and can only use his abdomen to forcibly block it.

Boom!

A super hard baseball, carrying great power, roughly collided with Zengzi Tou.

The violent impact made Masuko so painful that he almost couldn't breathe.

But during the game.

Zengzi Tou naturally does not care too much about this matter.

Saw.

With his right hand, Masuko quickly caught the baseball that hit his abdomen and bounced back, and simply passed the ball neatly to first base.

Shout!

The baseball burrowed quickly and accurately into the baseball gloves of first baseman Tetsuya Yuki.

And Kiryu hitter at this time!

There are still several meters to first base!

"The hitter is out!"

The first base referee immediately announced the result loudly.

"Uh-oh-oh-"

"That man blocked the fierce ball with his body!"

"It hurts even if I look at it! He didn't even care, and quickly passed the ball to first base! "

"Perfect response!"

The audience exclaimed.

As everyone knows!

High school baseball is hard-style baseball!

The pain of being hit by a high-speed flying hard baseball is no less painful than being smashed on the back of your hand with a mobile phone!

However!

Masuko forcibly held back!

And complete the precise pass without stopping!

"One man out, Sawamura!"

Masuko endured the pain in her abdomen and smiled at Sawamura.

"Senior Masuko!"

Sawamura looked at Masuko with a grateful look.

If Masuko hadn't stopped it, the ball would have definitely turned into a first base.

As for the pain of Masuko being hit by a baseball.

Because Sawamura didn't know very well and didn't empathize, he didn't pay attention to this side at all.

"Again relying on defense to get through the crisis..."

Miyuki's eyes narrowed: "And..."

"Next is the center line of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th bases!"

"If you throw some good balls like before, you will definitely lose points!"

Then.

Sawamura raised his hand to signal Miyuki to come over.

"Huh?"

Miyuki was stunned for a moment, but quickly got up and trotted to the pitcher's mound.

"What's wrong?"

Faced with the question, Sawamura hesitated and said, "After the team competition in the first and second and third years. "

"Lin Tian specifically found me and said that when my ball flew to home plate, there would be random drift."

"If I don't change and I'm still studied by my opponent, my pitch will be non-threatening!"

"So."

"He told me to learn to actively control the timing of the drift of the thrown ball."

"Also, the direction of drift must also be controlled."

Hear this.

Miyuki was surprised.

He didn't expect that Lin Tian would take the initiative to help Sawamura.

That's right.

Lin Tian and Sawamura are teammates.

But they are also contenders for the same position.

If Sawamura becomes stronger, it will definitely pose a threat to Lin Tian's position.

"Is it kind?"

"Or don't care about Sawamura's threat?"

"Or..."

"Both?"

Miyuki thought about it.

Sawamura continued to speak.

"I'm stupid."

"I haven't learned how to control the direction of drift."

"However, for the timing of the baseball drift, I can make the ball drift early, but due to lack of proficiency, it may be too early."

"And there is no guarantee that it will be ahead of time every time."

"So..."

"I didn't tell you about this before the game..."

"But I saw Kiryu's beater, like the original senior, standing in front of the place."

"I think my featured ball is likely to be seen through by them."

"So."

"After thinking about it, I still think I have to tell you about this."

Hear out.

Miyuki was stunned for a moment.

Then, a hand knife struck Sawamura's head.

"Stupid!"

"Why didn't you say this kind of thing earlier!"

"If I knew before the game, then I could also develop a perfect strategy!"

Miyuki looked at Sawamura rather helplessly.

Why does this junior always do something unreliable in addition to not respecting the senior?

And the valley too!

Why can't these two be as mature as Lin Tian?

"You're sorry to say!"

"Yesterday, when I discussed tactics with you, I actually wanted to tell you!"

"But you said I wouldn't change the ball, there's nothing to discuss."

"It made my mind blank at that time, just thinking about the fact that I would not change the ball, I forgot the fundamental purpose of finding you for a while!"

The more Sawamura spoke, the louder he became.

At this time, he was venting his emotions like a grudge.

"Ahhh..."

"This..."

When Sawamura said this, Miyuki also remembered yesterday's events.

Suddenly......

There is also a little embarrassment in my heart...

"Forget it."

"Don't talk about that."

"Hmm..."

"Anyway, I'll give you a gesture later!"

"As long as I extend my right index finger, that's the ball that lets you drift early."

"Got it?"

Coming back to his senses, Miyuki thought for a moment and said.

The timeout of each game is very short, and if you continue to delay, you will inevitably be fouled.

Miyuki would like to say something else, though.

But time is limited, and I can only make a long story short.

"Understood!!"

Sawamura answered loudly.

"Stupid! Stop being so loud! "

Miyuki reflexively knocked Sawamura with his hand knife.

"Remember to look at the gestures!"

Then, with a word of advice, Miyuki returned to the back of home plate.

"In the original..."

"It doesn't seem to have this scene, right?"

"What are they talking about?"

In the middle field, Lin Tian, who was silently watching the game, was very curious about the chat between Miyuki and Sawamura.

"Forget it."

"I can't think about it, I don't want to."

"Anyway, you should be able to see something related to the content of the chat later."
