Chapter 120: Three Strikes and Four Sticks! (3rd Update)
"What does the overseer command?"
Zhang Han covered his mouth with his gloves and asked.
It had become his habit as a pitcher.
I still remember when I first learned baseball, it was about three or four years ago.
Zhang Han soon showed his talent for baseball and quickly became the main force of the team.
The day before he became the main force of the team, Ono Binzhi specially told Zhang Han.
"In the future, when you communicate tactics on the pitcher's mound, or when you need to speak when you receive an order, you cover your mouth with your gloves."
At that time, Zhang Han was just a beginner who had just come into contact with baseball, where did he understand this?
He immediately asked curiously.
"Why?"
"To prevent your opponent from judging your tactics based on the expression on your face and the curvature of your mouth?"
"That's too mysterious, isn't it? Is it really that powerful? ”
"It's not an exaggeration at all, you don't say anything about stealing bases, hitting, playing and running, grabbing points, and containing ......"
Zhang Han tried to do it, but Ono Binzhi immediately guessed what he was talking about.
"That's handsome, too!"
Zhang Han was amazed: "Have you ever learned lip language? ”
"How can I have that American time? But even if you haven't learned it, there are differences in the arc and size of these words. If you pay a little attention, you can guess the roughly. For some powerful supervisors and players, the probability of their guessing accuracy is above 95%. ”
Ono Binzhi is not a reckless man in Zhang Han's mind, but he is by no means linked to the three words of high IQ.
But his words made Zhang Han shudder.
So much so that after so many years, he still remembers it vividly, as if it had just happened yesterday.
I'm afraid to be serious about everything.
When someone really studies baseball as the most important thing in their life.
How far can they go, you can't imagine?
"The overseer said, don't be too stressed. With the feeling of losing this point, let's play. ”
That's it?
Zhang Han was confused.
Although he didn't spend a long time with Superintendent Kataoka, after half a year of observation, Zhang Han always thought that his superintendent was the kind of person who would never compromise.
Since the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team is pressing, they just have to fight, how can they take the initiative to give up?
Zhang Han looked at the rest area of the Qingdao High School baseball team in confusion, and he even suspected that the player who gave the order had misheard the order.
But Superintendent Kataoka nodded solemnly at him.
With the consciousness of losing a point, let's vote.
In today's game, Zhang Han is not alone in fighting with the baseball team of Daocheng Industrial High School.
Instead, all the players of the Seido High School baseball team, including Kataoka, are competing against the Inagi Industrial High School baseball team.
They don't have to bet on that point.
With the speed of Carl Ross, Yoshida's striking level.
It's not that Kataoka is pessimistic, the probability that they can hold on is very small.
But even if you lose points, don't worry too much, the key is to end the game as soon as possible.
The real victory or defeat of this game depends on the offensive results of the Qingdao High School baseball team in the bottom half of the ninth inning.
Otherwise, even if you hold this game, it won't make much sense.
The attitude of the superintendent was resolute.
Zhang Han was a little unwilling.
But reason told him that with the tacit understanding of the opponent, even if he let the infielders move forward, they had little chance of stopping the ball.
"Whew!"
Zhang Han, who was extremely unwilling in his heart, no longer considered solving Carl Ross, and he planned to concentrate on confronting Yoshida.
As soon as he pitched, Karl Ross moved, and Yoshida also put on a short shot.
Like a black cheetah, Carl Ross instantly ran over a distance of more than twenty meters and returned to home plate.
"Safety!"
"Smack!"
"Out!"
Qingdao's response is also nothing to fault with.
They successfully settled Yoshida.
The score became 7:5!
The hope of winning for the Seido High School baseball team has become even slimmer.
In the stands, some fans were puzzled.
"I feel like Qingdao deliberately lost this point in exchange for that number of outs?"
"No, if you lose another point at this time, it will be difficult for Qingdao to turn the tables."
"I just gave the order, it should be the meaning of the superintendent, I really don't know what the superintendent of the Qingdao High School baseball team thinks?"
There was an elderly audience member who shook his head when he heard the talk around him.
"It's not that the overseer of Qingdao wants to do this, he has no choice but to do it."
"What do you mean?"
"Qingdao, the first-year pitcher, can only shoot straight balls, and he can only pitch in a fixed position. There is no way for him to change the direction of the ball temporarily, let alone use a particularly large angle change ball. In other words, he has nothing to do in the face of his opponent's short fights. If the Qingdao High School baseball team is determined to solve the third base runner, I am afraid that in the end, it will only be a loss of rice. ”
This old man can be regarded as the bosom friend of Superintendent Kataoka.
I felt Kataoka's mind very thoroughly.
If they forcibly solve Carl Roth, failure is nothing, and it is likely that they will not even be able to win this exit in hand.
At that time, not only did they lose points, but they also had to face a situation where they were out and there were people on first base.
Kataoka iron core.
At a young age, he became the supervisor of the wealthy Qingdao, and there was no less criticism behind it.
But now it seems that he is still very competent.
In the art of war, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles. From this point of view, what Superintendent Kataoka has done is actually nothing to find fault with.
He is well aware of the strengths and weaknesses of his team and opponents, and is able to make decisive decisions to break his wrist.
Such supervision, even if you look all over the high school baseball world, is rare.
Even in a wealthy family, not every overseer is able to make such a decision to break the wrist of a strong man.
Two outs, no one on base.
Inagi Industrial's fourth batter, Masako Harada stood in the strike zone.
This is the fifth time he's been in the strike zone, except for the first time he got lucky to get a hit against Tamba.
So far, he has no other contributions.
Now that he is facing Zhang Han for the second time, he will be ashamed of everything. Don't think that the Qingdao High School baseball team has just compromised and everything will be fine.
It's still early!
Their first goal is to get a point and secure their advantage.
After the advantage is stabilized, of course, the more points the better.
Harada held the bat for a long time, which was a sign of swinging the bat with all his might, and he wanted to take it down and play it for a long time.
It's better to hit a home run.
Cheng Gongming behind him, because he was wholeheartedly immersed in the game, did not ridicule at this time.
This made Harada's heart even more calm.
Miyuki raised his eyebrows, looked at the burly opponent in front of him, and secretly calculated in his heart.
The last one is out!
But it seems that it will not be easy to win.
The location must be tricky!
After thinking for a few seconds, Yu Xing gave Zhang Han a code.
After receiving the code, Zhang Han nodded slightly.
His previous unwillingness was all accumulated in his body. Although his physical strength had been consumed a lot, Zhang Han at this time felt that he was resurrected with full blood again.
"Whew!"
When he threw the ball, even Harada was taken aback.
I don't know if it's his delusion, he feels that Zhang Han's ball speed seems to have become faster?
"Smack!"
"Good shot!!"
It's not Harada's delusion, and there has been a lot of wind and waves in the stands. Knowing that there was Cheng Gong Ming throwing the ball, many people brought speed guns.
Just after that ball, someone captured the speed of the ball with a speed gun.
145.3 km!
Zhang Han's ball speed has really evolved!
Don't look at the evolution of less than 1 km, but the significance of this ball speed is special.
Exceeding 145 km, and not reaching 145 km, are two very different realms in the hands of a fast ball pitcher.
"Evolved?"
Hearing the noise in the stands, Harada also understood what was going on, but he didn't really care.
What about evolution?
The ball speed is not beyond his ability, and he can hit it just as well.
"Ping!"
The small white ball was blasted out of bounds.
Although Harada was chased by two good goals, no one thought he had lost. On the contrary, Harada now gives people the feeling as if he has completely suppressed Zhang Han.
Go on!
Zhang Han on the pitcher's hill was quite in a broken posture, and almost didn't pause to throw his third ball.
Zhang Han felt very smooth about this ball, and he didn't use much strength.
Harada, who was in the strike zone, saw an opportunity to swing his bat.
But his bat didn't touch the ball. The small white ball rises noticeably one piece before approaching home plate.
"Smack!"
"Good shot!"
"Strikeout!!
