In the "Fighting Koshien" live broadcast room, Soki Somasa and Konishinomiya Masako sat on the left and right, the makeup artist was doing the final touch-ups, and the director watched the opening tidbits, and at the same time bent his fingers to remind the two commentators how much preparation they had Time——Now the live TV screen is showing Hideji Kitahara's wonderful pitch in a game, the home run hit by Yukiri, and the highlight highlights of another team in this game, Yamatoura High School.

The opening episode ended soon, and it was time for Masamura Soki and Masako Konishinomiya to perform, and the two teams were saluting each other on the field. Nishinomiya Masako locked on Kitahara Hideji with very sharp eyes, and said happily, "I'm so happy to see Kitahara-kun again."

When the private Daifuku Academy participated in the first battle, she stood on the side of Kitahara Shuji throughout the whole process. Although it was out of selfishness, she was unexpectedly widely praised. The comments all said that she spoke the voices of many people, and this completely made up for her The weakness of lack of knowledge about baseball, and afterward, she got all the commentary contracts for the first three rounds, so she immediately chose to side with Kitahara Hideji before the game started—she had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and there was no Kitahara Hideji In the game, the audience's reaction to her commentary was mediocre.

Zong Muzongzheng, the middle-aged uncle, is very cooperative with the little idol Masako Nishinomiya, and said with a smile: "Is Masako going to support Kitahara again this time? Then I will support Yamatoura's Shimoto... Don't underestimate Shimoto Player, this is the second time he has participated in Hagar, and his strength is quite strong, I predict that Yamatoura High School will win this time!"

In his opinion, Hideji Kitahara is very strong, impeccable as a defensive core, worthy of the title of ace, but his team's scoring ability is actually not strong, as long as Yamatoura High School has a brain and recommends Fukuzawa Yuri, If Kitahara Hideji's arms can't take it anymore, then he wins!

He glanced at Masako Nishinomiya, his gaze was like that of a kitten—you underestimate baseball, this sport relies on brains!

"I believe the private Daifuku will definitely win, because it has Kitahara-kun!" Konishinomiya Masako is full of confidence in Kitahara Hideji, while Soki Munemasa smiled slightly: "How about making a bet, Masako sauce, a cup of coffee, and The most expensive one!"

"Okay, Zongzheng-senpai, I'll wait for your coffee!" Masako Nishimiya had no objection, and agreed in one gulp. It doesn't matter if you lose, she had to buy drinks for the seniors, but today she came and gave each staff member a piece of candy!

Zeng Mu Zongzheng couldn't help laughing, the little girl really dares to bet, you underestimate the professional vision of a former professional baseball pitcher!

But this is a good contrast to his professional level, and he happily introduced the ace pitchers Kitahara Hideji and Shimoto Haru to the audience, and then looked at the game screen and said with a smile: "It looks like a private Daifuku Academy Go first, come on, let's see what their first blow is..."

"It's Kitahara-kun!" Masako Nishinomiya didn't look at the list on the teleprompter at all, but was excited when she stared at the scene—he's really handsome, even with a helmet on, I really like him!

Zeng Mu Zongzheng was particularly surprised: "What's going on, is the private Daifuku going to give up the first banquet?"

How did you send the pitcher up? This team is weird! Was it a mistake? I have never seen such a tactic before giving up the first at-bat. Instead of giving up, is it necessary to take the most precious ace pitcher to take the risk of stealing bases?

Then he saw Hideji Kitahara standing on the left-handed seat, and he was even more surprised. He quickly recalled it, and hesitated: "Didn't Beiyuan player right-handed and right-handed? How did he stand on the left-handed position?"

"Senior Zongzheng, what does it matter?" For Masako Nishinomiya, there is no difference between the strike zone standing on the left and the strike zone standing on the right, but Soki Zongzheng looked at her helplessly—right-handed and left-handed Can it be the same? Normal right-handed people tremble when holding chopsticks with their left hand, let alone precise strikes.

What's more, depending on the dominant hand, the difference in strength can be more than 20%, which is not a joke.

He said with certainty in a professional tone: "Private Daifuku has given up on this banquet!"

He is very confident. Although he didn't understand what the private Daifuku wanted to do, it was obvious that Kitahara Shuji was not ready to play well.

…………

Shimo Fujito on the pitcher's mound looked at Hideji Kitahara and couldn't be sure what was going on. They didn't have much information about Hideji Kitahara, and it was basically all about pitching. He was recognized and respected as a super outstanding player. The high school pitcher also made targeted arrangements, but he didn't pay much attention to his hitting ability-Hideji Kitahara's previous at-bats were all paddling, and basically all of them were struck out.

This is normal for a pitcher, and no one has expressed any surprises, but it is strange to come up on the first bat in the opening, and it is even more strange to stand on the left-handed bench-what a new tactic, I have never heard of it before, Did you get off to a good start?

Take a risk with an ace? Despise us? Want to suppress us in momentum?

He was lost in thought for a moment.

Hideji Kitahara raised his hat brim and said "Hello" to the referee, and then he was ready to hit the ball in the left field - this is the tactic arranged by Suzuki Noki. The Yamatoura University team is very strong as a whole, but they have There are two fatal weaknesses.

First, the Yamatoura high school pitchers have a gap. Shimoto is a third-year student and has no pitchers from his peers, while Yamatoura has no pitchers in his second year at all, and the first-year pitchers have not trained well-this is normal. There are only over a thousand students in the college, and there are only a few hundred at least, and it is difficult to find good pitchers. There is no way to build a relatively average pitching team like professional baseball. Usually, there are only one or two pitchers. .

Second, the number of balls played by Shimoto is small. Noki Suzuki counted Shimoto’s recent data and found that when he hits about 100 pitches, the speed of the ball will start to drop. He lost a lot, which should be due to his personal body. His shoulder seemed to have inflammation after the last competition in Jiashien.

So Suzuki Noki began to arrange tactics for this point, but Shito Toto was able to lead the team to Koshien despite not having a high number of balls. It was done by others, and it was a headache for a while——Xueli must be qualified to fight with him, but Xueli is a gangster, and doesn't play these fake things very much, and the other party must be very wary of her. Walk her in early.

Hideji Kitahara knew about it, and after thinking about it for a while, he volunteered, and was going to let him consume Shito Tengyuan.

Suzuki Noki originally disagreed, but Kitahara Hideji said that he could use his left arm to hit, leaving his right arm to throw the ball, and showed Suzuki Noki his left-handed ability-when he held a bat as a weapon,【 Dual-weapon holding LV12】automatically takes effect, there is no difference between the left hand and the right hand, this comes from the "two days first-class" in [Ancient Style Swordsmanship], which is the genre of Miyamoto Musashi, slashing people with two swords.

Moreover, his pitching is mainly due to his joints being unbearable, and his physical strength is still quite abnormal. Now he can't compare with others of his age. He is not afraid of others, and he is completely confident that he will consume the opponent's pitcher. In the end, Suzuki Noki reluctantly agreed. But he is still required to put physical distribution first, and he can give up at any time as long as he feels tired.

And it’s not just Hideji Kitahara, half of the batting line, including Sokatsu Kuroki, Yuzo Yukimura, Nanpei Aihara, and Emiyahei, all received the same instructions—do not ask for hits or points in the early stage, and make every effort to match The opponent's pitcher fights, consuming his ball count!

Tactics are quite targeted, it depends on whether it can work.

Hideji Kitahara took a deep breath, and then signaled that he was ready. Shimoto, after communicating with the catcher, threw an inside corner slider that was difficult for left hitters. The ball speed was 149, which was quite good for a slider. Not bad, if you change to a full-strength straight ball, you must have a ball speed of more than 150+.

And Hideji Kitahara has been playing for so long since his first duel with the pitcher of Sacred Light. Chopping the ball wasn't for baseball, but he just swung the bat at random and he was done with it.

In the case of fighting, it is meaningless to hit early. The first and second balls out of bounds will still be considered good shots, but the third ball is different.

According to the rules of baseball, after two strikes, the third ball out of bounds is considered good or bad, and so on, and the fight of the pitching duel comes from this-I hit out of bounds and kept hitting. , You're so exhausted.

This trick is not easy to use in professional baseball. There are pitching teams there. There are a lot of starters, left relievers, right relievers, and closing pitchers. The meaning of fighting is relatively small, but here is Koshien. A team with good pitchers Then one or two, one counts as one if you are exhausted.

Of course, this requires the batter himself to be of a super high level. If you can't hit it, don't mention any fighting, just strike out and it's over.

Yamatoura's catcher matched two good and one bad, and found that Hideji Kitahara had been phony, and the bad ball didn't respond at all. I also felt that he came up to play soy sauce. Although I don't know what kind of madness the private Daifuku has, but It feels like the opponent has given up the first at-bat, and this pitcher doesn't look like a strong pitcher!

The catcher directly matched Shimoto Yuan with a good pitch, and was about to deal with Kitahara Hideji directly, but Kitahara Hideji made a sudden shot - he used his own strength to catch the ball in a very weird posture for baseball. The ball slashed diagonally, and finally crossed the third base line and hit the guard net of the auditorium.

This is a standard foul ball, and the difference between it and a home run lies in the flight path. If the ball flies within the sidelines on both sides and finally falls into the audience, that is, out of the field, this is a home run, and if the ball goes out of the sidelines on both sides during the flight, it is considered out of bounds Pitches - First and second throws are also considered strikes by the pitcher, but from the third onwards they are not bad or bad, batters can keep hitting, not counting strikeouts, until a strike is missed or hit until we got to the arena.

The throw-in was normal, Shimoto Won didn't care about the shooting and catching combination, and matched a spoofed bad ball again, but Kitahara Hideji didn't move - he matured very quickly, and now this kind of trick can't fool him.

So far, Shimoto has shot five balls, two good and two bad, and a foul was thrown, and then a strike was thrown, and Hideji Kitahara hit another foul.

It's not that he wants to hit a home run, he doesn't even seek to get on base, he doesn't need to activate the [breathing force] skill to burst out with all his strength, he only needs to hit a little more accurately, and hit outside the nearby sideline, the distance is very short, and the difficulty is greatly reduced-to be honest Yes, it's really easy for a swordsman like him to chop off the center of the ball.

According to his current level of swordsmanship, even if an arrow is shot head-on, he is still sure to hit it with a sword, let alone a ball.

He stood on the left playing area, using his left arm as the main force arm, and started to hit the ball outside the sideline with [Gu Liu Jianshu]. There was a slight confusion in the stands - the ball that was scored belongs to the audience, and whoever picks it up counts, and according to the tradition, you can bring this ball to him to exchange for a signature ball after the game.

After hitting seven fouls in a row, Shimoto was stunned, are you kidding me? With such a target, we must engage in attrition tactics at the beginning? Even if you can't hit long, you should try to get on base with such a high hit rate!

Suzuki Noki is also a little confused. I know that you are very strong, and I am a kind of person like me. You are an elite class with natural talents, but you are too strong, right?

She hopes that on average, each bat can consume six pitches from the opponent's pitcher, so that the opponent's pitcher will be weak in seven innings and collapse in eight innings, and will not give the opponent a chance to make a quick decision, but Kitahara Hideji is playing slowly here, which will I'm already going to consume 15% of the opponent's balls, and this is the first seat in the first game!

The audience was even more confused, is it so strong? I feel that Yamatoura's pitcher is not weak, how can you fight him for so long?

Normally, eight balls in a fight would be considered pretty good, but now there are already twelve, and now Kitahara Hideji's stance is very relaxed, it seems that three or five more balls won't cause any problems.

Yukiri Yukari's eyes in the waiting area also lit up, Hideji's slash is so beautiful, as expected of a man who likes maid outfits...

Xiao Nishimiya Masako in the live broadcast room had already seen her heart, put her hands on her chest, and praised: "As expected of Kitahara-kun, the endurance is so strong."

Zeng Mu Zongzheng watched the ball fly out of bounds again and again, and was very troubled - everyone said that the people in Guanzhong were out of their minds, and it was true, can you play the ball well?
