You all need to calm down lol. It's obvious what's happening. It's not the Furuya show again. Author is making it so Sawamura gets his jitters out early against a bad team so he can go hard against better teams later in the tournament. It's about time we get some Furuya development as well. I think this is the perfect time to have Furuya start getting back in form as well. This will for sure light a fire in Sawamura and will probably make him play well again. Them being rivals made them both mature and become better pitchers. Let's not just blindly hate on Furuya. Sawamura will get to shine in the next matches. Possibly even this match.
