Chapter 18: Pointing to Sawamura
Zhang Han rarely says so much.
But when he said it, it didn't feel annoying or resistant at all.
In his most common tone, he explained the pros and cons to Sawamura as if he was chatting with a friend.
From beginning to end, he never advised Sawamura, but Sawamura's ideas had quietly changed.
"posture?"
Sawamura, who is more involved in other things, is very sensitive in baseball, and he quickly grasped the key point in Zhang Han's words.
Zhang Han was shocked. He didn't expect that Sawamura's reaction to this matter would be so great?
Did I underestimate Sawamura before? Maybe he was not as simple as he did.
However, Zhang Han nodded. After all, he originally planned to say these words to Sawamura.
Regardless of whether Sawamura wants to join Seido in the future? Zhang Han is very willing to do this young man who loves baseball to avoid detours on the road ahead.
"As a team's core and manager and ace, what do you think the meaning of pitching?"
"momentum!"
Sawamura replied with little hesitation.
This answer was obviously something Zhang Han didn't expect anyway.
"As long as the momentum comes out, all difficulties will no longer be difficulties."
"Have you ever won the game before?"
"We almost won the last game of the summer competition..."
Sawamura was very excited, it was only one point away.
Zhang Han shivered after hearing this. This was the first time he knew that there was such a team. The first year was not counted, and their baseball team at Akagi Middle School has been formed for almost two years.
I haven't won a single game, and it's not just a formal game, but even a practice game.
This made Zhang Han very curious. He didn't understand how Sawamura and his friends survived it. They played for two consecutive years and didn't win a single game. Wouldn't they feel tired?
Zhang Han doesn't think he can hold on to the other party's position.
certainly.
If you think about this issue from another perspective, Sawamura and his friends' love for baseball may be more than most baseball players.
If the friends he led did not like baseball as much as Sawamura, then Sawamura's love for baseball and his talent in baseball would be very terrifying.
Sawamura raised her head and pretended to be confident.
Zhang Han pondered for a while and said tactfully: "Your answer is not wrong."
When he heard Zhang Han's approval, Sawamura's expression suddenly relaxed. He knew that this was just Zhang Han's speaking skills.
He just started to agree with the other party's opinions, but he didn't really think the other party was right. Zhang Han was just looking for a suitable entry point so that his words didn't sound so hurtful.
"Momentum is particularly important in the shooting duel, especially in the confrontation of top players, which is several times more important."
Sawamura nodded repeatedly.
Although he felt that Zhang Han’s statement was a bit strange, if he didn’t talk about them about top players, could this senior consider himself and him to be the top players in the country?
Although Sawamura is confident, he is not arrogant.
He still knows how big the gap is between him and the so-called top players.
But the senior in front of him, as expected, should be one of the top players. Sawamura was very happy to be recognized by such a player.
"But baseball games cannot rely entirely on momentum. A person's condition will inevitably be affected by mood and other aspects. He cannot be full of momentum in every game or every pitching. Our high school game is a single-round knockout match. As long as one loses, there will be no future. In this case, I think that it is as important as momentum and basic skills. For example, the pitching posture!"
Following Sawamura's words, Sawamura really listened. He showed a thoughtful expression, looked at Zhang Han seriously, and waited for Zhang Han to continue explaining to him.
The attitude is pretty good.
Zhang Han nodded secretly and continued, "You should be the best player in your team, right? What kind of pitcher do you think is the most difficult to deal with?"
“Strongly powerful.”
Sawamura answered seriously.
Zhang Han felt that his brain circuit with Sawamura was never on the same channel. Of course, he knew that strong pitchers were difficult to deal with, but the question was, was he asking this?
"What type of pitcher do you feel difficult to deal with?"
"The ball is fast. There is a school in our area. Their ace pitches are very fast and they fly over with a swish..."
Sawamura said and gestured, but Zhang Han didn't understand a single sentence. This went against the answer he originally wanted.
"Ball speed requires talent. When all objective conditions are the same, I will talk about a situation. Do you think it is difficult to deal with? The pitcher has no expression and the movements of the pitch are the same every time. If you encounter such an opponent, will you feel more difficult?"
Zhang Han finally gave up the Q&A guidance and switched to cramming education.
Following Zhang Han's description, Zawamura thought about it carefully for a while, and Zheng Keyou.
Um!
All other conditions are the same, if the pitcher does not have any extra movements, there is no expression on his face.
It's quite difficult to deal with.
It’s like a master is fighting, and you can’t understand the starting moves that others are posing at all. So how can you guess the other party’s next routines and strategies?
"So I said you have not received professional guidance. If someone has guided you, then you should know what fixed-position pitching is? To put it bluntly, it is to look at it from the perspective of the hitter. If the movements of any ball you throw are the same. In this way, he will not be able to predict the direction of your pitch based on your movements?"
"Predict the pitching position based on the pitcher's movements! Can anyone really do it?"
Sawamura couldn't believe how keen observation and reaction speed it required.
"Don't underestimate high school baseball. The situation I mentioned is not about the whole country, but there are no less than 20 fighters in Tokyo alone. This includes senior Dong and himself who have played against you."
In Zawamura's opinion, something very incredible. In Zhang Han's opinion, it is actually a normal operation.
Zhang Han did not exaggerate at all, even if all the third-year players in this class have retired, among the remaining players in Tokyo, the number of fighters who can do this must be more than twenty.
"Your road is still long!"
Zhang Han helped Zemura correct his pitching posture.
As for the others, it cannot be changed overnight. Half a year before entering high school, as long as Sawamura can practice fixed-position pitching, after entering high school, he can help himself and save a lot of effort and effort.
Chapter completed!
