Chapter 47: Twist (Part 1)

The ball flew in the sky for a long time, and at this moment the arena of Koshien fell into an eerie silence. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The baseball that flew into the sky was so powerful that it looked like it was about to penetrate the clouds, but the baseball still did not get rid of the gravitational pull of the earth after all, and after more than ten seconds, the baseball fell.

Tens of thousands of people in the audience, millions of viewers in front of the TV, all eyes were on this little white ball.

"Smack!"

The baseball fell straight down and into Hongo's masamune's glove.

"Out!"

The referee was the first to react, and it took him a full two seconds before he shouted two heavy words.

As soon as the words fell, the audience fell into a crazy commotion.

"It's too strong!"

"The ball flew too high, right? Yang Ping's strength is really not to be underestimated. ”

"But Hongo's performance is even more eye-catching, Yang Ping didn't play that ball well. It doesn't just look like it's low, it's even just just rubbing the bottom of the ball. ”

"Almost, Yang Ping's swing is a little higher, and the ball will definitely fly out!"

……

The audience was gossiping about their opinions, the troll Otoenmaki was demoralized because of Hongo's performance, and Seido High School was amazed by the strength of the pitcher.

Yang Ping missed once with a swing and failed to play well.

The whole game, a total of three goals, without the slightest waste, all of them are head-to-head.

In the case of a game out and a full base, Yang Ping undoubtedly lost.

After returning to the cowshed, Yang Ping still kept thinking about Hongo's Masamune goal in his mind. He actually guessed the ball correctly, Hongo's authentic one was indeed a straight ball, but the impression left in his mind by the quick knuckle ball before was not eliminated, and he subconsciously because this ball was lower.

If this ball is played well, then Qingdao can score four points in one go, and the situation of the game will be completely reversed. It's a pity that there are no ifs on the baseball field.

As soon as he entered the cowshed, Kataoka asked Yang Ping, "How is his ball going?" ”

This he, of course, refers to Hongo Masamune. Yang Ping thought about it, and finally said with an ugly face: "Very strong!" Even if we try to get back-to-back hits from him, it's going to be difficult. ”

If you can't get consecutive hits, you can't score easily, so any base should be cherished.

Kataoka nodded, not saying anything. Yang Ping knew that he was thinking about countermeasures, so he didn't come forward to disturb.

In the strike zone, it was the turn of Qingdao's sixth batter, pitcher, Akira Tani.

"Come on!"

"Monster to monster, look at that monster is even better."

"Don't lose~"

The momentum of cheering for the two of them was no less than when Yang Ping struck.

In this year's Koshien, there are only two men with a ball speed of 150 kilometers, and the duel between the two of them has naturally attracted the attention of countless people.

Troll's cowshed seating area.

Coach Nitta had an unfathomable smile on the corner of his mouth: When Hongo solved Yang Ping, his state had soared to the peak, and now that he met Xiaogu again, his fighting spirit may break through.

Hokkaido is covered with snow all year round, and it is not a good place to practice baseball, and Coach Nitta can lead the troll Otomaki High School into a nationally famous garrison school in such a place, so he naturally has his own set.

With such a coach, coupled with a student like Masamune Hongo, there's no reason why the troll Otomaki shouldn't be strong.

Even if the opponent is Akatsuki Shibuyani, even if the opponent's ball speed is faster than Hongo, Coach Nitta firmly believes that Hongo will not lose.

Pitchers don't just look at the strength on paper, but also consider the mental quality, the level of teammates, and the level of the partner's ball. Hongo, with the troll garrison, is absolutely invincible in the world.

Coach Nitta considered the problem, Hongo did not think. His mind is now full of this person standing in the strike zone.

Qingdao High School's starting pitcher, Akira Tani.

As we said earlier, this Shogu Xiao didn't know that there was such a No. 1 Hongo Masamune not far from him, but Hongo Masamune had heard of the name of Masamune.

Ever since he heard someone say that someone can pitch faster than him, Hongo has never stopped thinking about competing with Shizutani.

In the world of baseball, which is small, the two end up running into each other in high school.

Now represent different regions, different schools to participate in this competition.

And as soon as Hongo Masamune came on the court, the two soon had the opportunity to face each other head-on.

In the first half of the third inning, Qingdao High School attacked, two outs, and full bases.

Hitter, Qingdao High School sixth baseman, pitcher, Akira Valley.

"Boom!"

No matter who the opponent is, Hongo has never left a hand. But when he met Xiaogu Xiao, he still felt that his ball speed had taken a step further.

The baseball burrowed into the catcher's glove like a laser.

The ball speed display on the big score is 152KM!

"Good shot!"

The referee looked at the pitcher Akira Akira on the hill and the strike zone in shock, except for what he saw with his own eyes, who could believe that the two boys who pitched more than 150 kilometers in Koshien were actually in the first grade, and they were so powerful.

There is an unyielding fighting spirit on the face of the valley Xiao, although he didn't hit the first ball, but he has the strength and speed of swinging the bat, although the skill is a little worse, but as long as he hits the ball, he has the confidence to hit the ball.

"Boom!"

Without much thought, Hongo's second ball arrived, and the speed was still above 15, and the ball looked straight.

Akira still didn't swing the ball. Bat and baseball rub shoulders.

"Good shot!"

Two balls, two good balls.

After a while, Gu Xiao was chased.

"Good vote!"

The troll's catcher did not stop observing Tsukitani, and when he found out that Tsukiya wanted to swing his stick no matter what, he had a countermeasure in his heart to deal with Tsukiya Tsuki. So while talking to Hongo, I gave him a code.

"There is no need to throw a good ball into the lob with a high inside corner."

Hongo nodded and threw the baseball over.

"Boom!"

Akira Shibuyani's pitch was a little faster than Hongo's, and both of them were more than 150 kilometers away. But even so, there is still a big difference between the pitches of the two. Akira Shibuya's pitch feels like a grinning little monster, and Hongo's pitch looks like a clean laser.

Although this laser light does not feel incredible and tricky like a living pitch, it has its own characteristics. That's fast, and if you're really on the strike zone, you know that Hongo's pitches look a little faster than they actually are, which makes it difficult for hitters to get the timing right.

The last time he hit the table, Yang Ping was like this, he judged that the ball was a little slower than the actual baseball, so he was able to sweep out the home run ball and turned it into a pitcher catch.

Yang Ping didn't play well, and Xiaoya didn't touch the ball at all.

He also swung his bat at this time, and the bat was nearly two balls away from the baseball, and the two passed by.

"Good shot!"

Three outs, offense and defense exchanged.

Qingdao High School did not score a single point in the good situation of being out of the game and full of bases.
