Chapter 37: New Breaking Ball!

Sawamura and Miyuki deliberately hid aside to discuss a new tactic. 

There is a bridge in the middle of the river, and below the bridge is the place where the players of the Second String often come to practice swinging at night.

Sawamura and Miyuki bypassed the bridge and blocked the sight of several third-year seniors by the cover of the bridge.

“A secret weapon?”

Miyuki was shrewd, seeing that Sawamura deliberately led him to such a place, where he didn’t know that Sawamura wanted to experiment with a new Pitch.

On this side, Sawamura and Miyuki were experimenting with a new Pitch. On the other side, Isashiki Jun’s eyes never left the bridge, as if he could cross the bridge and see Sawamura throw the ball.

“Now training, do you think that will help you?”

What he said was heartless.

If it’s someone else, he can’t say that. Breaking-ball is not a cabbage sold at a stall at the market. Anyone else can talk as much as they want. But if it is Sawamura, he really can’t tell.

Now there are five or six types of courses that Sawamura can use. How do you know that he will pull another one of his ass suddenly?

“I don’t think so at the moment, but if it’s Sawamura, maybe he has a Breaking-ball that he hasn’t used before, and I can’t say for sure.”

Chris’s words were unanimously accepted by several players in the third grade.

To be honest, Chris is indeed Sawamura’s master, and he knows Sawamura. Sawamura didn’t even think about improvising a Breaking-ball. What he wanted to come up with now was a Breaking-ball that he had already mastered.

Of course, it’s from his past life!

the other side of the bridge.

SNAP!

After practicing a few balls, Miyuki sincerely gave Sawamura a thumbs up.

“Every time you change the grip, there is a clear break of the ball’s path. I don’t know if your talent is the first of its kind, but you are the only one I know who can do that.”

Although he knows that Sawamura has talent at the Breaking-ball with different breaks, this talent also has different levels due to the difference between the break of the ball and the power of the ball.

For someone like Sawamura who throws Breaking-balls, Miyuki has never heard of it.

“If the pitcher talent of the Breaking-balls is divided into ranks. Sawamura, your talent is the strongest!”

“You don’t need to say these meaningless flattery words, just talk about the Breaking-ball just now, do you think it can be used?”

Sawamura doesn’t have time to talk to Miyuki here, he is very eager to fight with the third-year senior.

He wanted to know if the course he had just used could come in handy against the third-year seniors.

“To be honest, you haven’t practiced this kind of ball at all! Since you haven’t practiced it, I’m afraid it will be difficult to come in handy.”

Miyuki pondered.

“Fortunately, if you get a Strike, you can still put the fight into the strike zone. In this way, if you play against the third grade, you can temporarily play a bluff.”

Here is an explanation of what kind of Breaking-ball that can be called practiced and what kind of Breaking-ball that can’t be called practiced.

The so-called practiced breaking ball means that the ball thrown out must be stable. That is to say, if you want this ball to go to the strike zone and get the Strike count, it will be able to reach the strike zone and get the strike count.

There is also the break of the ball itself, it must be sharp enough, it cannot be easily targeted, and the weak Pitch will be swept out by the Batters.

To put it bluntly, his ball handling and pitching itself need to be threatening.

Such a Breaking-ball can come in handy in a formal duel.

Sawamura’s Breaking-ball had been practiced many times in his previous life, but now he is throwing it again, the power of the ball itself is enough. But the ball control must be re-honed before you can use it publicly!

After all, Sawamura’s current physical fitness, finger length, height, and muscle strength are vastly different from those in his previous life.

This requires a lot of practice and constant tuning. Of course, because he has the experience and foundation of the previous life, this process must be much faster than the previous life. But no matter how fast you are, it has a process after all, and Sawamura can't master the new Breaking-ball in just ten minutes.

Even if he comes out with a new Pitch now, possession of the ball is still a big problem.

Aside from aiming near the center, he has a hard time getting the ball into the strike zone.

That’s why Miyuki said that Sawamura’s new Breaking-ball can only play a bluffing role.

“Just a bluff is okay. There are only so many weapons that can be used now. Next, we should think about how to use the weapons we have on hand to deal with our opponents.”

“Oi, that’s enough!”

After the special training for the two of them to barely crawl, they came out with Isashiki Jun’s impatient roar.

“let’s start!”

It’s already the fourth round and there’s not much to say.

Everyone is lined up and ready to play.

The third-year seniors, first was Kominato Ryosuke, the second is Takigawa Chris Yu, and the is third Yuuki Tetsuya.

All three of them had hit Sawamura’s ball before, and now is a great opportunity for the three of them to play.

These seniors in the third grade have no idea how to be polite to the Kohai. They made it clear that they were going to chase after the victory.

In the previous three rounds, Sawamura trailed by 2:1. If he wins the fourth round, according to everyone’s previous agreement, Sawamura can Pitch another round.

If he loses again this round, he will be completely defeated 3:1.

As far as the situation is concerned, Sawamura has now been forced into the corner, and he can only move forward, not retreat.

“STRIKE!”

Ping!

“FOUL!”

Two balls, just two balls, Sawamura scored two Strikes, chasing Kominato.

But this didn’t make the Battery relax at all. Judging from Ryosuke’s previous at-bat, whether he chose to entangle or choose the next ball to win at this time, there is no way to know.

Miyuki believes that continuing to entangle with Kominato Ryosuke will only increase Sawamura’s pitching numbers, waste time, and leak information, without any substantial meaning.

‘If the situation is like this, let’s start, let the Senpais come to see the latest Breaking-ball.’

Miyuki, the Catcher, gave Sawamura a signal.

On the pitching mound, Sawamura nodded silently, thinking that it was time to throw a new Pitch.

Leg raise, step, block, swing arm, pitch.

No matter what ball he throws, Sawamura’s movements are standard like a robot, and you can’t see any flaws in his movements at all.

In this regard, as an opponent, Kominato Ryosuke is also used to it.

He didn’t bother about Sawamura’s movements, but patiently waited for Sawamura’s ball to come.

coming!

Because he couldn’t see where the ball was released, the ball came very suddenly and very quickly. Fortunately, Ryosuke was mentally prepared, so he didn’t panic. When he saw the ball coming, he didn’t hesitate to swing the bat.

The ball is in the zone, he will not let it go no matter what.

The bat was swung out, and he was about to hit the ball, but the ball miraculously escaped.

Right in front of Kominato Ryosuke, it fled to the outer corner and sank to a certain extent.

With such a sudden change, Kominato Ryosuke was caught off guard, and his swing failed.

SNAP!

“STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!”

Just as the third-year senior thought, Sawamura’s new Breaking-ball appeared!
