Chapter 118 Chapter 16
In fact, this is not the first time Harada pulled the ball in this game. The last time he pulled the ball was Yoshida's first hitter. He pulled back a bad ball on the edge of the outer corner.However, the movement was not big, using gloves, at most the commentators felt that the chief judge made a mistake in his judgment.
It is quite common for the referee to make mistakes in judgment, especially for this kind of ball with the edge of the strike zone, which is more likely to cause problems.
But this ball is different, it is really about to hit Yoshimura's leg!
"Harada's hands move really fast, and he goes from there to there in no time." The commentator is very awkward now, he doesn't know what to say, he can only talk nonsense to ease the atmosphere.
"If I remember correctly, this seems to be a new technology that came from the United States. Now there are many NPB catchers practicing this technique. It seems to be called framing."
"Director Nada actually understands it. Can you introduce it to us?"
The commentary of the Jiaziyuan game is generally a professional commentary paired with a famous school supervisor who resigned.
"The commentator Morishita has been explaining npb all the time, so he should know better than me."
"Hey, my school's attitude is not correct enough. I haven't found this problem so far. I'm sorry everyone!"
"I don't know the specifics very well. After all, there are still relatively few people practicing. It seems that by moving the glove quickly, the chief judge made a wrong judgment."
Morishita has a smile on his face, but he has already scolded in his heart. Is this any different from not saying anything?Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Harada's biggest move just now was pulling the glove.Shameless old thief, dare to dig holes for me, shameless!
"I remember Dao Shi's classmate Su seems to have come from the country of America."
Morishita's implication is naturally that Harada Huila is likely to be taught by Su Qing.Morishita, who has evolved into Inomibuki, no longer cares about his position, as long as he is not too explicit, it will be fine.
"At present, NPB catchers generally learn by watching videos, and Guoyou Supervision still has many professional disciples."
Although Director Nada's words are to the point, anyone with a little bit of intelligence will know that he is refuting Mori.
In the studio, the two looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
Returning to the field, Yoshimura had been pulled back to the lounge by Yoshida and other foreign academy players.
"You have worked hard."
Before standing on the strike zone, Yoshida apologized to the chief judge cryptically on behalf of Yoshimura.
He was in the waiting area just now, and his vision was not very good. He didn't know why Yoshimura was so angry, so angry that he almost had a conflict with the chief referee...
But he could guess one thing, he was super angry when he was struck out just now!It was definitely a bad shot, but after a flick of Harada's glove, it became a strike.
Inago, this catcher has a problem with his glove! !
This is Yoshida's conclusion.
On the spot, he pointed out that Yoshida would not dare to ask the referee to check this kind of thing, so he must pay special attention to the bad balls on the edge of the strike zone, and these balls must not be let go!
In Yoshida's mind, he had already made up a big circle of strike belts, and his head became dizzy in an instant.
But he soon realized that he was thinking too much, and he couldn't even hit the ball inside the strike zone!
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
"Strike Out!"
"Missing the swing! Narimiya scored the strikeout with three straight balls! Narimiya has no one-on-one opponents on the court!"
Yoshida's face must be as painful as it is, he has discovered that not only Harada has a problem, but also Narimiya Naruto's straight ball has a problem!Obviously he followed, but the ball ran sideways inexplicably!All of a sudden he's swinging the bat!Yoshida felt that the video they watched before the game was fake, it wasn't like this on the video.
Hirakawa, who has watched the Western Finals 5 times, is actually the one who has the most say. Harada used framing technology in the Western Finals, but he really didn’t use it a lot. Miyuki used it the most. Hirakawa did notice this. technology, but did not notice that Harada also has this technology.
After all, Narimiya Ming and Su Qing's ball control is super good, which also caused Harada to use less. In addition, the chief judge of the Western Conference Finals had actually woken up in the second half. There are fewer, and there are even some backlashes.
Hirakawa also noticed the fact that Narimiya's straight ball floated, but Narumiya's ball only floated for less than three pitches before it collapsed, and its rotational speed plummeted. This kind of short-lived thing, Hirakawa did not notice. Take it to heart.
Now through the double complaints of Yoshimura and Yoshida, Hirakawa remembered it all, but is it useful?It's useless, the live strategy of framing and Ming Gongming's straight ball is just a dream.
Pingchuan shook his head and hid in a corner. As the team's main intelligence analysis manager, he actually missed two such important pieces of information!What a sinner he is!
Sato put his hand on Hirakawa's shoulder who had been bowing his head and blaming himself.
"Don't blame yourself, you have done a good job. You have been watching various videos these days, watching them while eating and just before going to bed. You are working for the team's victory every minute and every second. Work hard, look how long your dark circles last. It's time for you to rest, no, it should be said that we all should rest, that's it, I'm very satisfied to be able to make it to Koshien."
"Sato."
In the next second, Ping Chuan burst into tears. He was really under a lot of pressure, but he didn't dare to say that it was because he put the pressure on himself on his own initiative.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, it's time to play, and you'll have a long time to cry after the inning."
On the field, Cheng Gongming had easily won the last out, and got off work.
Yoshikakuen's Sixth Batman Mori finally hit a straight ball, but how could he hit the ball with a blind swing, and was stopped by Shirakawa, who easily passed to the first base to block him out.
Moriwa also became the second hitter in Yang Gakuen who was not struck out.
When Sato came on stage, the situation he faced was exactly the same as the previous game, but facing Hirai again, both Hirakawa and Sato were ready.
When Hirai wanted to destroy a good ball, he accidentally hit it into the field, and was eventually handled by a fielder and was out.
It was not easy for Hirakawa and Sato to solve Fan Shengmei. Sato successfully won his sixth strikeout from Fan Shengmei.
Already reaching his strikeout total from the previous game.As for being able to get so many strikeouts, Sato believes that Hirakawa is the greatest contributor. It is precisely because he has been studying Inashi's line-hitting and summing up Inashi's batting habits that he has such an excellent result.
"One bat, center fielder, Kamiya-kun."
Karl Rose felt that his performance in this round was really bad, and he was struck out in two consecutive plays.Even Hirai Tsubasa is better than him!
Karl Rose is a person with a great sense of crisis. He feels that he can't go down the wave, and he must be serious. Whether he runs to base by tutorial or walks to base, he must Get on base!
This is the bottom line Karl Ross has set for himself.
In the first two batting positions, he pursued hits or long hits too much. This is obviously wrong. Why is hitting base not hitting base.But being able to hit base is naturally the best.
A changeup, a slider and a curveball that got him struck out.That’s all the variations of the pitcher in front of me.The curveball caught him by surprise just now, but this time, it won't happen again!
Sato made a bad ball when he came up, and now this extremely focused Cal Ross is not what they want to see, and he must be distracted.
It was another bad ball, this time it hit the ground directly and bounced off, Hirakawa took a "panic" look, and finally chose to go directly to the referee for a new ball, anyway, there was no one on base.
In the strike zone, Carl Ross frowned. Too many pitches resulted in a ball-handling error?Is it a coincidence or is it really running out of gas?
Seeing Karl Ross whose complexion finally changed, Hirakawa heaved a sigh of relief, and played the signal to match the ball that he had prepared.
Or a changeup, this spot, low outside corner?again?
Calrose didn't forget the changeup that turned from outside the strike zone to the corner in the last bat.So Karl Ross swung the bat directly after the ball was caught at the right time.
But the expected reaction force didn't appear at all, wasted? !
Before he had time to see where the ball was, Hirakawa put away his glove. A missed swing must be a good shot, and there is no need to wait for the referee to make a decision.
In Hirakawa's mind, Carlos is the third-ranked hitter in Inami, with excellent eyesight, ability to follow the ball, and the power that is not lost to the main gun Harada.In terms of threat level, Karl Rose is even greater than Harada.His threat on the base is something Harada can't give.
Such a powerful Karl Ross, Hirakawa naturally observed to death. After observation and guessing, Hirakawa believed that Karl Ross has two states. One is that I have figured it out and I can start fighting, and the other is that I have not figured it out yet. Continue to observe.
In the latter state, Carl Rose threatened Chengdu with a plummeting rate and an extremely low on-base rate.In the former state, the on-base rate is max and the slugging rate is extremely high!
In other words, if they want to get rid of Karl Rose, they can't let him figure it out, they have to keep him in a semi-conscious state. In this state, Karl Rose's spirit will be scattered, he will not be focused enough, and he will be very easy to deceive!
Once he enters the state of concentration, it is useless for him to distribute the ball. Just like Su Qing, the ball comes, the ball hits, and the ball flies.
Although he didn't know what happened just now, Karl Ross knew that he must have been deceived!But in judging that the ball just now was a changeup ball, Karl Rose thought he was right.There is a strong possibility that the pitcher's control of the ball is not as good as before, and the ball does not fly to the expected location, ultimately causing his swing to miss.
Or maybe the catcher did it on purpose. If the catcher did it on purpose, what did he want to do?Paralyze him?
The latter's related thinking was a bit too difficult for Karl Rose, and he decided to confirm the situation as the former. How to fight is not to fight, just pay attention to it.
Damn, here we go again!
Hirakawa keenly noticed the change in Karl Rose's momentum. He exchanged two bad balls for only one good ball. Isn't that too bad?Why not walk him in?
But soon Hirakawa rejected this idea, it was unnecessary, even if he was hit, it would be a second base hit at most, why not try again.
Then let's have a curveball. He doesn't dare to match the slider. Today, the two times he was hit by the slider were sliders.He was afraid that Sato would be afraid to throw the slider.
When a pitcher doubts himself, the quality of the ball will plummet.Now the slider seems to have become a no-ball.If you want to hit, you can only rely on the changeup.If the curveball can cheat a strike, it's the changeup!
In order to prevent Karl Ross from being able to hit this curve ball well, Hirakawa's curve ball is still a bad ball for digging sweet potatoes.
Swing!very good!That's two strikes!
"Pong!"
I saw Karl Rose scoop up the curveball that was about to dig into the sweet potatoes and hit it toward left field.
Carl Ross, who is studious and inquisitive, naturally did not forget to ask Su Qing why he was so good at hitting low balls. He didn't quite understand the elevation angle Su Qing said at the time, but he understood one thing, that is, throwing the ball up Hit, the lower the ball, the easier it is to hit.At first Karl Rose thought it was an easy thing to do.
But later he found out that he was wrong, and it was basically difficult to find a point of strength to beat him like this.Later, after bit by bit of polishing and bit by bit of feeling, Karl Ross quickly discovered the pleasure of this set of striking methods.
As long as it hits the target, it is possible to hit a home run, whether it is a home run or a long hit. Even if it is not good, it will be a super long fly ball. It can definitely be used as a sacrifice fly.
"It's left field again! Will this ball stay in the field? No, it's out! No. 29 of the conference, the Yang Chun Pao from Kamiya Carlos, helped Inomi expand the score!"
Kneeling behind the home plate, Hirakawa couldn't figure out why such a low ball was hit as a home run.In the Western Conference Finals, catchers on both sides actually deliberately did not deserve low balls. Especially when facing two hitters, Chen Xin and Su Qing, low balls became simply forbidden balls.
This also makes it difficult for Pingchuan to get the information that Su Qing is good at playing low balls, unless he goes to the Kanto Conference.
In the process of Karl Ross running the bases, the commentator also reacted.
"The ball just now was a bad ball. It was hit at such a low position, and it was hit as expected."
This time, even Director Nada didn't know why, because even in the current United States, the flying ball revolution has not yet officially entered the stage, let alone the Neon side.
"The current young players are really quite talented."
I don't know how to say it, just praise it.
"Yeah, Yang Gakuen called a timeout, and the catchers and infielders went up to the mound."
"sorry"
As soon as Hirakawa got on the mound, he bowed his head and admitted his mistake. Sato's curve ball was fine, so the problem must be his distribution.
"Don't think about it, who would have thought that such a low ball would be hit. Instead of thinking about it now, you should think about how to deal with the next batter.
"Baihe Shengzhi, in fact, he is quite easy to deal with. He is not a power-type hitter. As long as he hits the ball into the field, he can basically be dealt with."
"Have you forgotten his performance last time?"
Sato tapped Hirakawa on the head, so as to solve the ghost.
"Trick him into swinging with a more tempting change ball. As long as you throw enough shots, he will definitely swing. If you don't swing, you will make a good shot. There will be a way! Just look at me, no matter what. I'll let you manage to get the last out on him."
Seeing Hirakawa's rarely confident expression, Sato nodded.
"Then please everyone, you must stop the ball shot by Baihe in the court!"
"No problem, leave it to us!"
