Chapter 32: The Hearts of 3 People
“Shisho!”
Sawamura looked at Chris with a complicated look.
When they cooperated before, he didn’t feel that way. Now, as an opponent, Sawamura has some inexplicable feeling that something is wrong.
Chris was injured just like his previous life, but unlike his previous life, he recovered three months before the start of the summer tournament.
‘What’s next?’
Sawamura didn’t know and didn’t want to think about it. He knew that both Chris and Miyuki were competing for the main Catcher position. Although Miyuki is a current catcher, his strength is also outstanding, and he is well-known in Tokyo and even the whole country.
It seems that the main position is very stable!
But Chris was promoted to the team’s main catcher in the summer of his freshman year of high school! At that time, he had the strength of the first string. Now, two years later, although there is a one-year window in the middle, the specific strength is also unknown.
When the two compete, it is hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker.
As far as Sawamura himself is concerned, it is also very difficult to choose who would he support.
He didn’t know whether to help his master or Miyuki.
Sawamura’s thoughts went back and forth, but Miyuki’s thoughts were very simple.
He has been eager to have the opportunity to compete fairly with Chris as a main catcher. Now that his wish has come true, of course, he has to weigh his opponent’s strength.
“Let’s have a good time, Chris-senpai.”
Miyuki and Sawamura’s thoughts were faintly felt by Chris.
Honestly, he was moved.
But it was because of this feeling that he could not let them down, and he had to go all out.
“Bring it!”
The bat in his hand pointed at Sawamura, and Chris showed extraordinary aura.
On the mound, seeing Chris’s actions, the now young Pitcher was successfully dragged out of that complicated emotional state.
As a pitcher, it is unacceptable to be challenged and let it go.
On the field, not even Master Chris.
“You got it!”
Sawamura’s aura suddenly changed, becoming exceptionally fierce, like a sword he had just drawn.
Miyuki also felt his momentum.
“Okay! Let’s deal with him then.”
The opponent was Chris, and Miyuki played the ball very carefully.
Now Sawamura’s fighting spirit is very high, sharp, and scary, and he can just use his momentum to deal with Chris.
First, a Cutter ball is on the edge of the inside corner!
Such a ball, even if Chris hits it with his bat, will become a foul ball.
Whoosh!
Seeing Miyuki’s sign, Sawamura pitched the ball without any hesitation.
A small white ball flew towards him.
On the strike zone, Chris watched Sawamura throw the ball without blinking. He is different from Kominato Ryosuke and Yuuki Tetsuya. The two had never seen Sawamura’s new pitch before, but Chris supervised Sawamura’s step-by-step practice of the new form.
So he was not confused by Sawamura’s new form, and calmly judged the path of the ball.
The ball path is the inside corner!
The first ball, Chris did not swing!
SNAP!
“STRIKE!”
One Strike, zero Ball!
In the position of the catcher, Miyuki’s eyes were frighteningly bright.
‘Very good. If you don’t swing the bat on the first ball, you can play another ball at the same position. For this ball, the ball must be firmly grazing the sideline of the inside corner, so if that ball was hit, it will be foul.’
Immediately afterward, Miyuki gave Sawamura the second sign.
On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura nodded slightly.
The right foot was raised high, and then like a battle axe, it slashed to the ground. As the center of gravity of the body moved, Sawamura’s hand swung like a whip.
Whoosh!
The small white ball, as if an accelerator was installed, kept advancing.
On the strike zone, Chris targeted the ball and swung decisively.
Ping!
The white ball was hit and flew out.
“FOUL!”
Isashiki’s mouth was almost crooked, and the ball almost flew into the field.
No Balls, Two Strikes!
The Batter was chased.
The imposing Sawamura, Miyuki, is trying his best to work his brain, once the two of them join forces, their power is still terrifying.
Next, is the crucial third Pitch.
Miyuki glanced at Chris and decisively gave Sawamura a sign.
According to the general theory, you should make good use of the three BALL space you have, and at least throw one Ball first to catch a fish. If Chris takes the initiative to swing the bat because he’s being chased, they’ve earned it.
‘Of course, the pitcher is Sawamura, and the general theory is useless.’
‘At this time, it is best to throw a Strike to decide the outcome.’
On the mound.
The flame in Sawamura’s eyes was burning hot, even if he had more than ten years of professional experience in his previous life, he brought his friends to dominate the country after his rebirth in middle school, and he had a strong battle with Chris now.
He also absolutely cannot allow someone to provoke him in the strike zone.
‘As long as you stand in the Batting zone, then you are my opponent!’
‘The next ball, I will get you out!’
On the strike zone.
Chris’s eyes were as calm as water, and they seemed to understand everything.
The speed and rhythm of the ball have been soaring, with two cutter balls being used in a row before.
Then the final lore shot.
that is.
Miyuki: ‘Change-up!’
Sawamura: ‘Change-up!’
Chris: ‘Change-up!’
At this moment, the hearts of the three people are synchronized.
On the pitcher’s mound, Sawamura’s aura was astonishing, as if he was going to devour the sky.
Whoosh!
Sawamura throws the ball.
Chris waited until the ball was in his hand before swinging.
Ping!
After the small white ball was hit, it flew to the dam.
Hit!
The first hit came, and the creator was Takigawa Chris Yu!
Miyuki looked at Chris in disbelief, he guessed it!
On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura clenched his fist unwillingly. The Pitch just now was bad. If he Pitch it well, even if Chris can guess the ball, he won’t hit that far.
There is a fundamental difference between a first-base hit and a second-base hit.
“As expected of Chris-senpai!”
Miyuki looked at Chris, who had left the strike zone, with admiration in his eyes.
“It’s exactly what I thought!”
Miyuki believed in the last ball. If Chris was the catcher, the change-up would have been used for the last ball. Otherwise, he can’t be so calm and choose to play change-ups.
The one-year window may affect Chris’s body and strength, but his baseball IQ is only strong.
“First hit!”
“Wooooo!”
A smile finally began to appear on the face of the third-year senior.
There is someone on the base, and it is the turn of the hit.
On the pitcher's mound, the expression on Sawamura’s face became extremely serious.
Now there are no distracting thoughts in his mind, there are only opponents and only batters.
“The challenge is coming!”
Seeing the Captain, Yuuki Tetsuya, Miyuki’s mood also became complicated.
If Seidou High School had anyone who gave Miyuki a headache, Yuuki Tetsuya the Captain of the Seidou baseball team, was the first on the list.
In Miyuki’s words, the Tetsuya was already so strong that he was already in a different realm.
…
T/N: Chris-senpai!!!
