It wasn't just Coach Ochiai who was curious about this matter.

Including Coach Kataoka, everyone in the Seido High School Baseball Team's dugout had their eyes on Zhang Han.

They were very curious how Zhang Han managed to hit those low-angle pitches twice in a row.

The previous Fastball was easier for everyone to understand.

Zhang Han himself is very good at hitting Fastballs, and hitting the ball after pre-selecting the pitch was surprising but not unexpected.

But what about the curveball just now?

That kind of pitch cannot be pre-selected; he must have swung after seeing it clearly.

Zhang Han looked at the curious gazes around him, hesitated for a moment, unsure whether he should speak.

On the other side, Inashiro Industrial High School Baseball Team called a timeout.

The impact of the recent Homerun on Inashiro Industrial High School Baseball Team was immeasurable. In this situation, they naturally had to take action.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

Narumiya Mei stomped his feet on the pitcher's mound in frustration.

Even now, he still couldn't figure out how Zhang Han saw his pitch.

Narumiya Mei was very confident in his pitch speed. If Zhang Han hadn't judged the pitch trajectory in advance, he would never believe Zhang Han could hit the ball.

But how did he do it?

"I'm not sure how Zhang Han did it. But from these two rounds of hitting, he must have seen your pitching motion in advance, or guessed our pitch sequence."

"Impossible, my posture has been corrected many times, it's not like a senior who has been working with me for a long time…"

Narumiya Mei shook his head subconsciously.

Harada Masatoshi didn't avoid his gaze, but instead stared at Narumiya Mei, forcing him to calm down.

Everyone gathered on the pitcher's mound knew that the probability of Zhang Han guessing the pitch sequence was extremely low.

After all, each of these low-angle triple pitches was random. On the surface, it seemed like the probability of guessing each pitch was one-third to one-fourth.

As long as you guess a few more times, there will always be a chance to guess correctly.

But in fact, it definitely wasn't like that.

Fastballs and breaking balls appearing interchangeably, if concentrated within a certain range, can easily affect the batter's judgment and vision.

Once the batter is affected, no matter what kind of influence, he will hesitate when hitting, and thus will not be able to swing with full force.

This is only one aspect.

On the other hand, after your judgment is affected, you simply cannot judge the upward and downward angles of the baseball, making it very difficult to select a ball to hit.

If the pitch speed is slow, this strategy is easier to counter.

For example, if it were a super hitter like Zhang Han or Yuuki Tetsuya, they could wait until the baseball completely entered their hitting zone before hitting it.

Seido High School Baseball Team, in their previous game, dealt with their Ace Uehara's triple pitches in this way.

However, this method definitely wouldn't work against Narumiya Mei. The reason is simple: Narumiya Mei's pitch speed is fast enough.

"Now is not the time to be frustrated, nor is it the time to think about how the opponent guessed it. If you can't figure out the specifics for now, that's fine. Let's discuss it during our reflection meeting after the game."

As the team captain, Harada was very decisive at this moment.

He directly turned the page and stared intently into Narumiya Mei's eyes.

"Focus entirely on getting the remaining batters out. Don't think about this matter anymore."

Narumiya Mei was naturally unwilling in his heart. But no matter how unwilling he was, he knew that it was useless at this time.

He nodded, "I understand."

The showdown with Zhang Han would be for next time. Now his task was to get out Isashiki Jun and Miyuki Kazuya, who were up next.

Here, Inashiro Industrial High School Baseball Team adjusted their rhythm by calling a timeout.

On the other side, in the Seido High School Baseball Team's dugout, all the teammates were still looking at Zhang Han, hoping to hear from him the secret to how he hit the ball.

"I'm also very curious, don't you think there's a big difference between his curveball, Forkball, and Fastball?"

Zhang Han asked in confusion.

After hearing Zhang Han's explanation, all of Seido High School Baseball Team's teammates were basically confused.

Only Yuuki Tetsuya quietly nodded along.

"Tell us, what's the difference?"

"In the last game, against Uehara, besides the different grip, there was no abnormality in his pitching posture. He basically threw breaking balls through flexible finger manipulation, like a magician. I couldn't find any flaws in his movements, so I couldn't judge what kind of ball he was throwing."

"But Narumiya Mei's pitch is different. On the surface, it looks similar to Uehara's triple pitches, but the core is completely different. He changes the trajectory of the baseball through his own movements, even though he makes this movement very small. But you can still see that when he throws a curveball and a Forkball, his arm extends a bit more. I think he probably uses this method to change the spin rate of the baseball during its flight…"

Zhang Han's matter-of-fact tone made the other teammates of Seido High School Baseball Team question themselves.

Could it be that something was wrong with their eyes?

They hadn't seen any of the things Zhang Han was talking about.

Originally, Ochiai had specifically gone to Zhang Han to ask him to explain how he hit the ball.

It wasn't to say that everyone could do the same as Zhang Han, but at least, after being enlightened by Zhang Han, everyone would know what they should do.

Even if they couldn't do it, they would feel more confident.

But after hearing Zhang Han's explanation, Ochiai felt that not only was there no help, but it made the players feel even more confused.

"Dynamic Vision?"

Coach Kataoka first glanced at Zhang Han.

And it should be a very special Dynamic Vision.

Then Coach Kataoka thoughtfully turned his head and looked at Yuuki. As expected, he was also nodding.

It seemed that he, like Zhang Han, had noticed something unusual in the batter's box.

It was precisely because he had judged in advance that the pitch would fly into the strike zone that he didn't swing, and was eventually walked to base.

Coach Kataoka was incredibly proud to have two such super hitters on his team.

But at the same time, he was a little disappointed.

The hitting experience of Zhang Han and Yuuki was basically of no help to Seido High School Baseball.

Although Dynamic Vision can be improved through acquired training, most of it is innate. He couldn't possibly give every player on the Seido High School Baseball Team such a talent.

That's not realistic, and more importantly, he couldn't do it.

In this way, Seido High School Baseball Team's upcoming games will probably not be easy.

The game continued.

Inashiro Industrial High School Baseball Team, after giving up runs, seemed to have undergone a complete transformation.

Everyone on their team looked at Seido High School Baseball Team as if they were class enemies.

They were already their biggest rivals, and now there was another layer of conflict.

It seemed that the days of peaceful coexistence between the two teams were far off.
