Chapter 9: The Trolls Come to War (Part 3)
Koshien in spring, the second game of the third round on the ninth day. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Qingdao High School's competition against the troll Otoenmaki has officially begun.
This game attracted the attention of countless fans across the country.
"A head-to-head showdown for a 150-kilometer pitcher!"
That's the game, the biggest gimmick. No other embellishments are needed, just this one is enough to get the adrenaline pumping of all viewers.
Before the last match, Kataoka suddenly said to Miyuki: "The opponent deserves respect, let's shout a slogan." ”
Miyuki was stunned for a moment, and only then did he understand Kataoka's intentions. Nodding his head, he summoned everyone to besiege the city in a circle.
"There it is!"
In the audience, an unparalleled noise erupted.
It's been a long time.,This year's Koshien.,This is the first time that Qingdao has shouted the slogan of the king.。
"I used to watch it on TV, and I was so excited. This time, I said that I would see it once, but I didn't expect such good luck. ”
The noise of the audience did not affect the actions of the Qingdao players.
Miyuki stood in the center of the circle, clapping a hand on his heart.
Who are we?
King Qingdao!
Sweating more than anyone else?
Qingdao!
Shed more tears than anyone else?
Qingdao!
Are you ready to fight?!
Whoop!
With the dignity of the school, we have only one goal: to be the first in the country! Come on!
Wow oh
With the roar of the Qingdao players, tens of thousands of spectators shouted along with the audience, and at this moment, the court of Koshien trembled.
In the hearts of all the players, there is no longer any trace of confusion. We are Qingdao, and we only have two paths, either to win the championship or to fight on the way to win the championship.
At the beginning of the game, in the first half of the first game, it was Qingdao who attacked first.
"First bat, guerrilla, Yoichi Kuramochi."
Before Kuramochi came on the field, he smiled bitterly in his heart. Lately, I don't know why, good pitchers have emerged in an endless stream, which has made him hold the uncle, and now there are fewer and fewer hits.
Today's opponent is the same, if not stronger.
Masamune Hongo, it may be a bit reluctant to say that he is the first in the country, but he is definitely one of the top pitchers in the country.
In the face of such an opponent, if you can't defeat the opponent, Qingdao will not be able to win the victory.
Kuramochi's face turned cold, he was a second-year senior anyway, if he couldn't set an example for his juniors, what kind of senior would he be.
What he's best at is speed, and the troll must have already investigated it. They will definitely be wary of their short plays, since this is the case, then the first ball Lao Tzu will play long.
"Boom!"
The baseball method pulled the surrounding space and smashed into the trapper's glove.
"Knock~"
Kura swung the bat on the first ball, but his bat didn't touch the baseball for half a point, and the baseball got into the glove as if no one was around.
"Good shot!"
As the referee pronounced the verdict, the audience erupted in thunderous applause.
151KM!
The first goal, just the first goal, Masamune Hongo soared the speed of the ball to 151 kilometers.
This scene caused the surrounding audience to scream again and again.
"The ball is so fast, it's a monster pitcher."
"And it's a ferocious inside corner."
The speed of the ball is 150 kilometers, and the ball is precisely controlled in the corner. Hongo's authentic strength can be seen from this.
Just in the middle of the moment, Hongo's second ball was thrown, and the baseball dragged its tail and got into the glove.
"Two good balls."
Kuramochi was stunned, and the ball was tightly clinging to the outside corner.
Hongo's strength is a big breakthrough compared to the summer.
The two good balls were chased, and Kuramochi did not give up, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to swing the baton actively. Before the last game, Superintendent Kataoka also gave instructions on Masamune Hongo's pitching.
It doesn't matter if you let go of all the low balls, and you must not let go of the balls with the good balls above.
With a speed of more than 150 km/h, once the ball is accurately controlled into the low ball belt, the ball becomes difficult to hit. This is not only Hongo Masamune, but also Seido's Akira Valley. If his possession is not messy, it is rare for a hitter to touch his ball.
Here it comes!
I made up my mind, and there was no more confusion in Cangji's eyes. In this way, whether it is observing the ball path or hitting, his strength will rise with the tide.
At a ball speed of 150 kilometers, no one in Qingdao can wait for the ball to enter his hand before swinging the bat. Of course, this does not mean that Qingdao has no way to take the other party.
In addition to waiting for the ball to go into the ball and then swinging the bat, there is another way to strike. That's the legendary grasp rhythm.
From the time the pitcher starts to prepare, you pinch the time to play. Wait for the ball to come and swing the bat. Only then will they be able to time their swings.
The same is true for this goal. Kuramochi Yoichi's eyes were hot, and he seized the opportunity to swing his stick decisively. It's just that the baseball suddenly fell as it approached the hand.
Kurachi's three swings of the stick missed.
The way of the ball just now is, a quick finger cross!
Kuramochi's eyes were full of disbelief, the troll Great Fujimaki was very similar to Aodo, especially their coach Koda Shinzo. The timing of his switch to pitchers is well-known throughout the country. In addition to the monster pitcher Masamune Hongo, there are also quite a few excellent pitchers. Hongo, on the other hand, usually only plays as the team's finishing pitcher.
The opponent is a normal team, and trolls have nothing to do with it. The problem is that Qingdao is not an ordinary team, it is the king of Qingdao High School!
In the game against Qingdao, if the troll Otsumaki allows other pitchers to play, it is likely to encounter the embarrassing situation of the summer again. As a result, the only pitcher they can choose to play is ace pitcher Masamune Hongo.
Having said all that, there is actually only one thing I want to prove. That is, if the trolls want to win this game, there is only one pitcher who can play.
Hongo Masamune is going to finish this game, is it really good to use the change ball without reservation at this time?
Will his physical strength really allow him to sustain nine innings and shoot to the end?
Kuramochi is skeptical about this. That's why he didn't think Masamune Hongo would use a quick finger fork at first.
It's just obvious that he guessed wrong. Masamune Hongo never seems to have thought about it.
As soon as the game is out, no one is on base.
"Second baseman, second baseman, Haruchi Kominato."
"Brother Demon, come on."
"Brother-kun, don't lose to him."
In the audience, fans belonging to Kominato Harushi began to cheer for their idols frantically.
It's just a small minato standing in the strike zone.,But it doesn't seem to get any strength from these fans.。
First ball, straight ball!
Xiao Minato, who bites the ball very accurately, swings the stick directly.
This way of the ball, it is easy to play. As a good hitter, he couldn't let it go.
