Chapter 67 Tornado Pitching(1/2)
Escape is shameful but useful.
Suffering from uselessness.
The best way is to defeat him.
Yi Cheng said nothing wrong.
But everyone looked at each other, looked again and again.
"It's easy to say, what should we do if he keeps shooting straight balls?"
"I just want him to shoot straight shots." Yi Cheng smiled, "To be precise, it doesn't matter if he shoots any shots."
"What does it mean?!" Everyone looked at him in confusion.
"Did you notice his pitching posture?" Yi Cheng looked at Guo Beichuan who was pitching on the court.
He raised his hands above his head, stretched his arms, raised his upper body behind his chest, and then turned 90 degrees to take advantage of the force.
The posture is very strange, and the whole person is like a bowstring pulling away backwards.
Guo Beichuan turned around 90 degrees and used the force to use the twisting waist strength and the increase of arm moment to press all the force to the fingertips.
Whoosh!
Electric light flashes.
Bang!
White ball enters the catcher's glove.
The ball speed displayed on the scoreboard is: 162km/h
Everyone couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.
"Don't you think his pitching posture is strange?" Yi Cheng didn't care about the exaggerated speed of the ball.
Anyway, being the fastest man in the world is not necessarily a good thing.
"Ha?" Everyone turned their heads and looked at Yi Cheng like an idiot.
"Don't you know that the pitching position is a famous tornado pitching."
Yi Cheng curled his lips.
Mom, I've only been learning to play baseball for more than a month now, and I know how tornado pitching is.
but--
This name sounds cool.
Tornado pitching was created by a very famous baseball player in the history of Higashima [Hero of Shigeru].
Hero Noshiro joined the Major League Baseball in 1995 and became a pitcher for the La Dodgers.
His pitching posture is very strange, he raises his hands high above his head, stretches his arms completely, and leans his chest back at the same time—
This benefit is that it can make full use of the body's ductility and provide better strength.
So the ball thrown by Hero Nobuki is very fast.
The vertical drop of the ball is very large.
His strikeout ability is ranked first in the world.
In 1992, the season began to win the winning bidder and strikeout king for three consecutive years. In 1992, it set a record of 21 double-digit strikeouts in a single season, breaking Jiang Xiafeng (Hanshin)'s 20 games record in 1968, and surpassing Jiang Xiafeng's record of 10.99 in 1968, winning the title of "Dr. K".
In other words, Ye Mao Hero is a K-headed King and a top assassin.
After checking it with your phone a little, Yi Cheng was stunned.
"Ahem, don't worry about tornado pitching for now, but have you not noticed it?" Yi Cheng said seriously, "This pitching method has a very obvious disadvantage."
"What?" Everyone looked at Yi Cheng curiously.
"I just recorded it with my phone," Yi Cheng opened the video of his phone and showed them Guo Beichuan's pitch just now.
"Did you notice?" He pulled the progress bar with his fingers and started to slow down. "It took 1.98 seconds from Guo Beichuan's preparations to baseball attacking.
Then the ball's flight speed is 162 kilometers. If converted into seconds, it will fly 45 meters per second.
The distance from the pitcher board to the home plate is 18.5 meters.
That is 0.41 seconds.
That is to say, it takes at least 2.2 seconds from when he starts pitching and until the baseball flies into the catcher gloves.
Then it takes 0.5 seconds for the catcher to react, and it takes at least 0.4 to 0.6 seconds for the first base.
In this way, there will be 3.3 seconds to run.
It takes about 3.5 to 3.7 seconds to pass to second base."
Yi Cheng is worthy of being the emperor of mathematics and is considered very fast.
Even coach Peng Cong was attracted.
The others were confused when they heard it.
Generally speaking, athletes' math grades are not very good.
"So what?" they asked.
Catcher Shi Kaiyuan first reacted.
"Run from home base to first base, only 27.4 meters.27.4 divided by 3.7 seconds, emmm..."
"7.4." Yi Cheng calculated in seconds, "We only need the tutorial to run more than 7.4 meters per second."
Running 7.4 per second is equivalent to running 13.5 seconds for running 100 meters.
What level is this?
The national second-level athlete's 100-meter sprint standard is 13.04 seconds.
That is to say, as long as you run faster than the second-level athletes.
Although professional baseball players are not as fast as track and field athletes, it is not difficult to meet the standards of second-level athletes.
Peng Cong quickly retrieved the player data and checked it, and found that three people in the team met the 13-second standard.
There is also a shortstop named Jiang Hao, who has the strength of a first-level sprinter.
He can run 12.5 seconds in a hundred meters.
"But it's not right. If we don't hit Guo Beichuan's ball, we won't even have a chance to run."
One player raised a question, "At least we have to hit the ball to run from home base to first base, and the assumptions behind you will be true."
Haha, there are finally people in the team who understand.
Yi Cheng tutted his lips and smiled without saying a word.
"So the key to the problem is how to hit Guo Beichuan's ball."
Yi Cheng looked at them with a smile.
"You see, it's hard to hit the ball with a long grip, because when we hold the bottom of the bat, we actually hit it with a cross section of the bat. If the baseball route does not fall into this fan, we can't hit it, right?"
"Um."
"But what about using a strike?" Yi Cheng looked at them, "Are we sure we can hit the ball so fast?"
Touching means holding both ends of the bat with both hands and striking the bat horizontally for touch-like strikes.
For example, a good ball belt is a nine-grid:
123
456
789
Then when you hit, you can block the bat by 123 or block 456,789.
It is equivalent to using a horizontal stick to seal the road, stop there, and wait for the baseball to come.
The advantage of this kind of hit is that it has a high hit rate and easy direction to adjust.
The downside is that the strike is basically powerless.
After the baseball collided and rebounded, it would form a rolling earth, which was very close to the catcher and the pitcher.
"But, as long as the strike is successful, we can start running bases," Yi Cheng said seriously. "It takes 0.5 seconds for both the pitcher and the catcher to react, at least 0.3 seconds, and then picking up the ball will take at least 2 seconds. It takes at least 0.4 seconds for the first base.
That is to say, as long as the strike is successful, we have 3.7 seconds of running time."
When Yi Cheng said this, everyone suddenly realized.
...
The second half of the seventh game.
The score is still 0 to 0.
To be continued...
