Diamond no Ace 102

And I was kicked off the project.



Daiya no A Chapter 102

Chapter 102: Potential
A freshman south-paw, huh.
He did some nice pitching against Akikawa...
Left vs Left-handed... That might be the point to seal Todoroki...

Page 02

I'm going to let him hit hard.
So everyone keep up the...
....
Actually, I would like to concentrate on the batter after all (What do you say!?)
We got two outs after all. // And no runners and all.
D- Don't rephrase! (You're just looking more stupid)

Page 03

Is he nervous!?
Take another deep breath!!
(It's okay!)
No, do it!
Here comes another idiot--
He just talks them what's on his mind..
Great.
Don't be impressed, Raichi!! // Or they'll know you're an idiot too!!
Sawamura...
Furuya passed on to you after holding down the #8 and 9...
This is so handy...
Now it's your turn.

...
All Akikawa batter were beaten by this pitcher.
It doesn't look like his control is bad...
Nor are his pitches that powerful..
Yet, why couldn't they hit off him?

Page 05

I fear
he got a pitch with quite the trick to it...
Moving, huh..
...
The same type as you, huh?
(Mh?)
It's not something that great! // He just got a little trick.
But that little trick is enough to become a weapon...
Or is he just a defect...

Bring some light on this, Raichi---
Kahahaha
I really wanted to hit that fastball again.
But I was quite interested in this guy too after seeing the tape.
Besides them, they got
another two pitchers...
Kukaka...
I can hit a lot of different pitches in this game...

Page 07

This team is
interesting!!

Page 08

First, let's test his attitude.
Let's see his reaction to a ball.
I don't want...
to let him...
He's the only one I don't want to---

Page 09

R-
Right in the middle---

Page 10

Page 11

STRIKE!!
...Hah
Kahaha
The shot rotated...
Just now... the ball slightly moved.

Page 12

Page 13

Wh- What was with that back throw...
He throw it back at full power?
So that's the "concentration on the batter" you speak of?
If you're ignoring my mitt,
then I won't lead you anymore...

Page 14

Maybe the pitcher didn't follow his sign...
That throwback could have a lot of meanings.
...
They'll keep on changing pitchers, so that Yakushi's batter don't get used to them.
Certainly, that gives them the initiative...
but other said, it means they fear Yakushi's line-up that bad...
With a successful pitcher change, they can grab the momentum perfectly...
But if it fails...

Page 15

I'm sure Miyuki-kun knows it...
The great risk that hides behind this aggressive pitcher changing...
I won't let Tanba throw in tomorrow's game.
You go play your role with that in mind.
A pitcher change for victory!!
Just think about connecting the game to the following pitcher.
Right...
This isn't a personal vendetta...

Page 16

It's a team fight!!
Back to your senses?
Next is low outside--
A ball is fine, just throw it low!!
...
Kukakaka

Page 17

The ball moved after all!!
And his form is special too!!
Good~ Confirm the course of the pitch with the next one!!
Telepathy!?
Kahahaha
So much fun!!
His left arm hidden
by his body---

Page 18

suddenly...
Ball!!
This time it moved outside...

Page 19

He got some great potential...
It's an incredible weapon....
Kahahaha
---away.

Page 20

I want to send it flying away.
