Chapter 11: Dark Horse Style
In the first half of the ninth inning, two outs, Watanabe, a four-batter from Santai Middle School, hit a long hit in the right fielder and went to second base!
Two outs, there was someone on second base, the score was 4:2, and Akagi led Santai Middle School by two points. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
First Ball: Two Stitch Straight Balls!
Second Ball: Quirk Ball - Change!
Third Ball: Outside Corner Quirk Ball Bad Ball!
Fourth ball: 2 stitch straight ball!
With four balls, Sawamura struck down five bats from Santai Middle School to kill the last trace of suspense of the game.
One of the players who came to see the game was a reporter from Baseball Weekly, who wrote a detailed account of the turning point of the game.
Akagi's match against Santai was a miraculous victory. Ace pitcher Eijun Sawamura repeatedly created miracles to turn the tide when his teammates kept making mistakes. Although he was hit on base by a hitter from Santai High School a whopping 15 times due to a teammate's defensive error, and hit a home run, he only lost two points. On the other hand, Santai High School's ace was only hit by three hits and two home runs, but four points were lost. Sawamura's reversal three-point home run became the key to winning or losing.
Yang Jun, an international student from the ancient country of the East, has just transferred to Chicheng and has made new contributions. Taking advantage of Watanabe's home run by Sawamura, the timing has not yet been adjusted, and he also hit a home run, further expanding Akagi's advantage......
This report, in the most inconspicuous corner of Baseball Weekly, has only a few lines.
But these few lines caused quite a stir throughout Nagano. For Akagi Middle School, which is about to be merged, it is a treasure. This is the second time Akagi Middle School has appeared in the media in recent years. (For the first time, it was a list of schools to be merged, with Akagi's name on it.) )
Nagano Prefecture's sports news has always belonged exclusively to Toho Gakuen. Baseball, basketball, football, and tennis are the sports kings of Nagano Prefecture, who have a firm grasp of the quota for the national tournament. The only exception to the previous report was the beautiful boy, one of the top four Fudo Peak Middle School ace pitcher - An Zexiu.
Akagi's Eijun Sawamura is the only Nagano baseball player outside of Toho Gakuen to be mentioned by the media after Azawa Shu. Unlike Azawa, who relied on his looks to win news, Sawamura relied on unparalleled baseball talent and strong performance.
Yang Ping was also very satisfied with Sawamura's three-point home run! In this way, it will be difficult for the opponent to implement the escort strategy against him in the following games. (It's not a shame to give a strong stick in baseball.) But there has never been a team that dares to escort two people. )
The first game won Santai Middle School, and the next two games in Akagi were like hanging up, although the process was a little twists and turns, but it was a succession! Unknowingly, there was a thrilling breakthrough in the semifinals of Nagano Prefecture.
Second match: 15:7.
Sawamura's performance can't be said to be imperfect, but because the fielders made too many mistakes defensively, missing four or five times. was attacked by the opponent's runners again and again, and it was incredible to lose a lot of points.
Contrary to the porous defense, Akagi's line in this game was invincible and heroic. Sawamura hit a home run again, and two outfield long hits. Hanakage had four hits, and Yota Kurosaki also had three hits. Xiao Xiangyang and Takeshi Yamada also each hit two hits......
As for our super strong Yang Ping, he was still escorted to the base. In the end, with the blow of Yota Kurosaki, he moved back to home plate and scored a point.
The third game, the quarterfinals of the eight-in-four.
Score: 8:6.
In this game, Sawamura's performance was unstable, and the opponent was leading until the ninth game. Knocked out two home runs. Fortunately, the defense line that was collectively disconnected on the field was finally reliable. Helped Sawamura barely hold on.
In the ninth game, it was Yang Ping's turn to play, and the score was 2:6, and Akagi was four points behind. Both the two sides who were playing and the spectators on the sidelines thought that Akagi was powerless. The opponent's pitcher also began to face Yang Ping head-on. Anyway, even if you get out, it's just a point.
Then, the first ball was hit by Yang Ping on the home run wall, and even broke one of the indicators on the home run wall.
After that, the opponent's pitcher seemed to have dropped suddenly, and he sent six off-road and seven batons of Atsuki Wakana four times in a row!
The opposing coach had to call a timeout and let the fielders cheer up the pitcher and adjust his condition.
After that, the opponent's pitcher, whose performance returned to normal, successfully took out Akagi's eight-batter Xiao Xiangyang. But he didn't want to be hit by the nine-stick Yota Kurosaki out of the right field. Not only did he let the cross-country run back to home base, but Aozaki Wakana also went to third base, and Yota Kurosaki went to second base.
The score became 4:6, with Akagi trailing by two points. The situation is one person out, and there are people on second and third base.
The first bat, Takeshi Yamada, made a sneak attack with a short bat, went to first base, and Cangyue took the opportunity to run back to home plate and scored another point.
The second stick was looked at and was struck out. The situation became two outs, and there were people on first and third base.
On the third day, Hana-kage hit an infield hit and hit base.
Two out, full base. It's Akagi's turn to be the fourth stick of Eijun Sawamura.
I don't know if it's good luck or luck. In the end, Sawamura hit a long left fielder and scored three points in one go, helping the baseball team of Akagi High School complete a shocking reversal!
The score won the second game, and the thrilling reversal came back to the third. Not only did the Akagi High School baseball team perform well, but the game didn't look dull at all.
Akagi, who possesses these qualities, has not only made a name for himself in Nagano through three games. It even gained a lot of fans!
Fudo Mine Junior High School, Nagano Ichi High School Affiliated High School, Akagi Junior High School.
The top four in Nagano Prefecture have already confirmed three places. The last spot is the winner between Toho Gakuen, who played for the first time in the summer, and 56 Middle School.
Even if you know, Toho Academy is bound to be the final winner. The game also attracted countless baseball fans to watch.
Not to mention the baseball players from various schools, even the players who made a name for themselves in high school came to watch the game.
In Nagano Prefecture, there is only one team that has this attraction - Toho Gakuen.
The absolute king of Nagano Prefecture and the nation's long-term victory.
As the opponent of the next game, Yang Ping was hesitant. It stands to reason that at this time, he should go with his friends to see Toho's team, after all, it is the opponent of the next game. Knowing oneself and knowing the other side can not be defeated in a hundred battles!
But what if you're scared?
Toho's strength level is based on the schools in Tokyo, and Yang Ping can also roughly estimate it. Compared with Akagi, this kind of strength team is like a big man and a seven or eight-year-old child.
No matter how well a child plays, it is unrealistic to expect him to beat an adult. Unless the child has a knife in his hand, there is a chance that the fight will be a dozen.
