"The opponents are those private high schools that practice all year round. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info I don't want to lose to them even if I die! ”

When interviewed, Ruolin Hao unceremoniously made nonsense.

"That's a powerful sentence!"

Owada Akiko was very excited, thinking that she had dug up big news.

"Don't report yet!"

Fujifu persuaded that Wakabayashi was still young, and it was inevitable that he would not know the importance of it. If he says this, he will probably be infamy.

Saturday, October 17th.

In the quarterfinals of the Tokyo Autumn Tournament, Seido competed against Wanggu High School, and officially began.

The first to attack was Seido High School.

"First bat, guerrilla, Yoichi Kuramochi."

Kuramochi stood on the left!

"Position, position !!"

"Qingdao, Qingdao!!"

So far, the audience has increased significantly. Especially the supporters of King Qingdao!

After Koshien won the championship, Seido became popular all over the country. There are unimaginably many supporters and fans of Seido High School.

Of course, everyone also has to go to school and work. It's impossible to be there in every game of Qingdao.

It's different now, there are three games left until the final.

Even if these fans push their own things off, they have to cheer for Qingdao.

Therefore, as soon as Kuramochi came on the field, he had the momentum just now.

On the pitcher mound, Wakabayashi sneered.

It's almost like Seido has won!

Wealthy private universities, king Qingdao.

Don't lose to them even if you die.

"Whoosh!"

The baseball went straight into the catcher's glove, and the first ball was held without swinging the bat.

"Good shot!"

Didn't hit with a strike, and didn't hit?

Kuramoto's actions made Wakabayashi a little undecided.

"Test it with a bad ball."

The catcher was very calm and immediately changed his strategy with the ball.

"Bad ball, bad ball!"

Two bad balls in a row, Kura still didn't swing the bat.

The ball selection is very accurate.

The immovable position made Wakabayashi a little overwhelmed.

"Good choice!"

"Find the right opportunity to fight again."

"I can see it very clearly."

At this time, the cheers of the fans came unexpectedly, which greatly affected the judgment of the pitcher.

Wakabayashi smiled wryly, it was like playing away in a football game.

"Use a good ball to fight it out."

The baseball roared, but Kuramochi still didn't swing the bat.

"Smack!"

Good ball, two good and two bad balls.

Kuramochi was chased.

"Whew~"

Stand on the left side, but don't use short hits. Kurachi is also improving. In addition to the improvement of his striking ability, he also consciously exercises his eyesight.

"Ping!"

After being chased, Kuramochi then hit the ball out of bounds.

The pitcher still lags behind, but the pitcher's pitch count seems to have increased quite a bit.

It's already five goals!

It's tough!

Wakabayashi let out a sigh of relief, then threw the ball hard at the trapper's glove.

"Whoosh!"

Baseball straight into the catcher's glove.

Kuramoto's eyes changed, and the bat in his hand roared out.

"Ping!"

The baseball was beaten to the outfield, but the luck didn't seem to be good, and the baseball was picked up by Wang Gu's outfielder.

"Out!"

The cowshed of Qingdao Road.

"Bad luck!"

said this, but Kurachi's face was not revealed at all.

According to the information provided by Watanabe, this is the characteristic of the garrison of Wanggu. Rely on the ball to be hit out to complete the defense and win the number of outs.

"At the very least, this verifies the accuracy of the intelligence."

Entangle the number of balls and let the pitcher waste his physical strength by throwing more. Then, in the second round, he defeated the opponent in one go.

This is the established strategy, but before winning two points, Qingdao doesn't mind at all.

"Second baseman, second baseman, Haruchi Kominato."

After a few balls, Minato knocked the ball into the middle of second and third base.

"Smack!"

Right fielder, the forward fielder receives the baseball and passes the ball to the first baseman.

"Out!"

At this time, Wakabayashi's eyes were no longer right.

It looked like two outs that went very well, but the first hitter used six goals and the second one used eight.

Fourteen goals were used for two outs!

At this rate, even if he doesn't let any hitter get on base, he will have to pitch 200 balls at the end of the game.

Are you kidding?

You can't waste any more balls, you have to use the ball directly to decide the winner.

When Wakabayashi realized that Aodo was consciously consuming his balls, he immediately decided to change his strategy of matching balls.

"The third stick, catcher, Miyuki Kazuya."

Miyuki stood in the strike zone and looked happy.

He had already guessed the opponent's next match.

With 14 goals to win two outs, the opponent should be confused.

The next choice of the opponent must be to use the ball to bring about a showdown.

"Whoosh!"

The baseball came into hand, and Miyuki swung the bat without hesitation.

"Ping!"

The baseball was knocked out of the way and then landed.

"Smack!"

After two outs, Miyuki hit a second base.

"Miyuki, Miyuki !!"

"Come on, come on!"

The cheering is not over yet, the baseball has already flown out.

Miyuki didn't choose to consume the opponent's ball count like one or two bats, but swung the bat on the first ball.

Two outs, someone on second base!

"Beater, fourth batter, stalwort, Yang Ping."

There are people on the base, and it is Yang Ping's turn to hit again.

Qingdao's chance to score seems to be imminent.

The audience was also very excited, singing and dancing one by one.

"Let's get a shot, let's get a big shot. Aiming for the ......"

The singing of Koshien resounded in my ears.

Yang Ping's adrenaline soared. Although it was originally scheduled to be the second round of the table before the use of intelligence battles began, there was no harm in scoring two points early.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and Yang Ping was ready to give his opponent a head-on blow.

But at this moment, the people of Wang Gu took the first step.

The catcher stood up and swung his gloves far away.

Is this to be respectful?

"Bad ball, bad ball, bad ball, bad ball!"

Guaranteed to get on base!

"Qingdao is the strongest third and fourth sticks, and to be honest, if the two of them are separated, we really can't do anything. But once the two of them are connected......"

In the Pelican Nine Sen game, Wang Gu's people thought of a way to limit Yang Ping's base.

That is to arrange a runner in front of him.

"Fifth baseman, first baseman, Kenta Maezono."

After tangling a few balls, Maezono hit the infield and rolled the ball and was blocked out.

Three outs, offense and defense exchanged.

In the audience, Baseball Weekly reporter Fujio shook his head.

Despite Wang Gu's stratagem, he survived the game. But the difference in strength between the two sides is too great. ”

Up to now, the number of pitches made by the ace pitchers of Wanggu has exceeded twenty!

If this is played in nine rounds, no one will be able to hold it if it is replaced.

The cowshed at Wanggu High School.

Coach Araki also found this: "You have to give support to Wakabayashi in the attack. Otherwise, this game will not be played at all. ”
