soul of baseball

Chapter 280 The 113th American War 1
Japan-US matches are always very popular, one is because Japanese fans have a special complex for this sport, especially high school games.

The second is because the Missouri team is now a star-studded team, and the group stage has staged a big reversal, which makes people look forward to it even more.

There are a lot of scouts on site. In addition to professional teams, there are also scouts from various NCAA Division I universities. If they find a good prospect, they can go back and prepare an invitation letter and think about how to lobby. .

Mayor, the Cardinals' scouting director, was also present in person today. His purpose was very clear. He just came to see Shen Qin.
Although he had learned from Yuri that he would go to college after graduating from high school, it was still early, but today he said that the catcher started first, and he had to come and see.

Unlike other teams who think that Shen Qin's training as a catcher is a waste, they think it's good. If he gets better and better, he will be selected five or six years later, and after a few more years of training, he will be able to hand over to Yuri perfectly. If the catcher is mediocre, the stick can save it. After all, he has no problem in the field or in the field.

However, this possibility is unlikely. After all, Yuri of the football team is interested in his observation and guiding ability, so the team stick doesn't care so much. The contract is therefore long and large, so the relationship between the two parties is also good. Yuri often Show off how talented your kid is, and after a long time, everyone will know that there is a talented catcher seedling in his family. It really didn't matter much at first, but after seeing the three-pointer, it can no longer be ignored Yes, great bat, hit catcher, what a boy!When the game is fully over, the team must give him a special gift. Isn't there an old saying in China?Concentration is the first priority, and it's not bad to walk away from favors!

The Missouri team went first, and the Japanese team's starting pitchers were Hikari and Taichi, paired with catcher Mizuno Makihisa. When Shen Qin stood in the strike zone, he took a special look at Mizuno Makihisa. Even this guy can catch Kikuchi's butterfly ball ?

The team has discussed before the game that the task of the linebacker is to try to consume the number of balls used by the starting pitcher. The sooner he can go out, the better. Of course, if he can blow up the ball, the better.

As long as the little Butterfly Kikuchi Kikuta plays, he won't be able to hold on to this very good ball, so he will change!
You must know that the winning group is three consecutive games. It is not only the current game that needs to be looked at, but also the next two games where the pitchers are overused. As long as the pitcher breaks out today, the chance of good pitching tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will be even smaller.

The most important thing for everyone to do is to consume balls!
Quinn's requirements for Shen Qin, who is the pioneer, are a little low. His bat is really good, and the probability of home runs is too high. It would be a pity to really grind the ball count.

Shen Qin's understanding of Guanghe Taiyi is limited to one intra-team match.All I know is that his ball speed is very fast, with the fastest record reaching 155 kilometers.

He is also a fastball pitcher. In Japan last year, he was overwhelmed by Shohei Ohtani's super fireball. When he was gone this year, there was a super fireball right-hander Coach. He was obviously a left-hander in Japan?

Of course, the last thing I want to see now is this Shen Qin who is standing on the strike zone. At that time, he used the rules to calculate two points for his real team, a black-bellied man!
When we met back then, I was still a junior high school student!

In a blink of an eye...it was still baby fat.

Mizuno Mujiu was very interested in Shen Qin, a hitter who had never been struck out. After watching the first round of his game video, he also thought about the distribution of the ball for a long time.

A guy who goes from outfielder to infielder to catcher?interesting!

The little man hit hard?How to match the ball?As the exclusive partner of a fireball pitcher, his judgment on fastball is naturally very strong, so let's try his strike zone with an outside corner fastball first.

Straight ball inside angle.

Mitsuwata nodded. The one he was catching was not his own family, but the long-famous Mizuno Makihisa. He was also the main catcher in the previous term. He was right.

"boom!"

bad ball!

The ball got into Mizuno Makihisa's glove sharply, but his originally relaxed expression became a little uneasy.

The ball that just brushed the edge of the strike zone was actually testing the umpire's strike zone in addition to the batter.

Today is very harsh~
Mizuno Makikyu turned his head and glanced at Shen Qin, who was even more confused. Sure enough, the words that he had never been struck out were not just words. He had no desire to hit the ball just after the straight ball came over. He made a direct judgment. If the referee had judged it, okay The ball, then I will definitely not let go of this kind of edge ball in the next bat,

So how should the next ball be matched?Mizuno Mujiu looked at Shen Qin's feet, exerting strength on his right foot, and the center of gravity of his whole body was somewhat on the right side.

Ready to swing the stick?Do you think I'll be able to pull the strike belt with the outside corner?
Then there is the sinker in the inside corner~ (In the case of right-handed pitching and right-handed hitting, sinker is translated as sinker. However, Japan and the United States are different. Japan integrates several types of sinkers.)
Mizuno Makihisa is undoubtedly a very good catcher.The observation is very comprehensive, not limited to his teammates, and the strike zone is also very accurate.

Inside corner sinker, come on.

Hikari and Taichi didn't really want to shoot this kind of ball that made Coach famous, but they just looked at Mizuno Maki for a long time and finally nodded.

The same ball path as a straight ball, when it comes to the hitter, it suddenly goes down and right!

"boom!"

The ball was accurately hit, passing through the first and second bases to form a hit, and Shen Qin easily stood on the first base.

Mizuno Makihisa was a little dumbfounded. He swore that Shen Qin was still holding the long stick before he and the pitcher confirmed the signal, but why was he holding the stick above the end of the close ball he just hit?

As a strong hitter, the requirement is so low to use this method to get on base?Bah bah bah!How on earth is it done?
How did you do it?Shen Qin bit the fingertips of the batting glove on the first baseman and tore it off.

Is it hard to play?It's very simple~ Although the catcher has not moved his glove to his inner corner, his left foot is firmly planted and his toes are leaning towards him. Isn't this easy to guess?Do you want to perform difficult catches in the opposite direction?

Proudly raising his chin, Shen Qin put his hands on his chest in front of the lounge and made a fast running movement, you guys have to run fast too~
"Pfft!!!" Not to mention that Pu Yi, who was standing on the strike zone, and Coach, who was in the preparation zone, were already holding their stomachs, and a bunch of people laughed in the lounge.

"Hahaha why does he imitate the dog's movements." Pepe laughed and fell on the guardrail: "Does he have a dog at home?"

Marcel grinned: "Dogs do exist, but I can't imagine a French Bullfighter being able to do this. Hahaha~ Mine often does this half-squatting hahaha~ His dog Coach took the photo I posted a lot of photos on Twitter, you go and see, it’s not okay to be fat.”

"Haha~ like the master~"

…………

Of course, Shen Qin didn't know what others were talking about, and he was off the base to interfere with Guanghe and Taiyi, hoping to create a missed pitch for Pu Yichrome.Of course, it would be even better if he could send himself back with a stick!
