167. Our summer is not over yet
In the second half of the 4th inning, the offensive half of Aoba Dodai High School. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At this time, Aoba Dodai has just managed to hit the base with a mid-to-long-range hit on the first base on the court, and the number of outs is 1, and the next thing that will play is the team's stable output, from the captain Anno who is 3 strong bats.
"Yo Si! ~”
Anno came to the strike zone, first saluted the catcher and referee in the opposition zone, and then prepared to step into the strike zone.
He remembered the first-hand information he had just received from Kobayashi, the first baseman, through his teammates in the logistics team, and said: The pitching action of the opposing pitcher is very standard, is it!?
Anno grabbed his bat and prepared to start hitting.
On the first ball, Tanihara, the pitcher of Shenda High School, used a slippery ball and threw it into the corner to suppress.
Anno avoided it, and then saw the coach standing in the rest area on the side of the court playing tactical sign language to him: pay attention to the second ball, mostly fastballs, outside corners, just hit it!
Anno nodded slightly, indicating that he knew.
Then he began to focus on Tanihara of the pitcher's mound...... To be precise, it should be the right hand that looks at Tanihara holding the ball.
Soon, Tanihara settled the ball with his catcher partner and started pedaling again.
At this time, Anno, who was standing in the strike zone, concentrated his full attention and stared at the pitching action of Tanihara, the pitcher of the Shenda High School.
With his left foot raised, he strode out and twisted his body vigorously...... After that, move the right arm that is placed behind you as a reverse joint and throw the ball out of your hand!
"This is it! ~”
At the same time, Yasuno, the 3 batter of the Aoba Dodai, suddenly opened his eyes wide and secretly exclaimed: the ball point is close to the ear, it is a speedball, and the outside corner of the ball road is down!! I've waited for you~
"Great! ~”
With a prepared swing, Anno hit the expected low ball from the outside corner.
"Whew! ~”
The baseball flew out wildly in response, causing the field guards on the field to shout nervously.
"Outfield ball! ~”
"It's in the left field, fast! ~”
"Yoshikawa-kun, please, you must catch up! ~”
Compared with the nervousness of the players, the coach of Shenda High School saw some signs that his players could not see: "En~~ Is it an illusion!?" They've got the ball on the road to Tanihara!? ~~”
On the other side, many of the team members in the rest area of Aoba Dodai High School were also excited.
"Run, run! ~”
On the first base guidance area, the player who was the support team turned his arm vigorously and pointed to the direction of the second base with the other hand, signaling Yasuno to run in the direction of the second base.
Anno ran quickly while looking at where the ball he hit was now.
It was at the point where the left field was very far out of bounds, and the baseball fell to the ground.
Yoshikawa, the left midfielder who caught up with the guard, had more than enough strength to catch up, so he could only watch the ball fall into the effective strike zone and continue to roll towards the left corner of the home run wall.
At this moment, as soon as the teammate from Aoba Dodai High School in the guidance area next to the 3rd base bag saw the landing point of the ball, he immediately made a gesture to his teammate Kobayashi, who had run past the 2nd base, and pointed to the home plate with his whole arm: "Run, Kobayashi-kun, run back to home plate!" ”
"Roar! ~”
Now Aoba Dodai High School is lively.
A blow, originally Anye just thought that he could get to Chang'an, who was on first base, but he didn't expect that he would play better.
A shot blasted out a possible 2-point hit on the left side of Chang'an!
Yasuno roared excitedly, and ran confidently towards the second base, he knew that at this time, the guard of the Shenda High School was completely attracted by Kobayashi, who ran back to the third base, so it was a sure thing for him to go to the second base.
After a shovel kicked up a puff of dust, Yasuno went up to second base without any problems, just as he relaxed and looked at home plate to check the situation.
At this time, Kobayashi, who ran the base, took the lead and galloped towards the home plate, but the baseball was still in the hands of outfielder Yoshikawa.
Yoshikawa shouted in the outfield and threw the ball back to home plate with all his might, at this time he couldn't care so much and could only pass the ball back in the direction of home plate!
The final result was that after the baseball fell about 5 meters in front of the home plate, the time was delayed, and Kobayashi successfully returned to the home plate to score by sliding the base in advance.
"Yo Si! ~”
"Well done, Kobayashi-kun! ~”
"Well done, finally scored! ~”
"Haha~~"
Xiao Lin, who had just run back to home base, was surrounded by a group of his teammates to celebrate, and Anno, who was on the second base bag, wiped the sweat on his forehead and smiled: Yo Xi, this is good! ~ Then for the next continuation of the blow, Aihara-kun also has a good chance to send me back to home plate! ~
Next, the fourth batter of Aoba Dodai High School did exactly as Anno expected, and when facing the fourth ball thrown by Tanihara, a pitcher from Shendai High School, he caught the curveball that was thrown low in the inner corner, and sent the baseball to the outfield again with a bat.
Although Aihara's blow failed to form a direct score, it also allowed the first and third bases on the field to stand on him and Anno respectively, and the scoring situation has been formed.
Seeing this, Bai Mu, the coach of Shenda High School, couldn't see that there was a problem with his own pitcher.
So he hurriedly motioned for a member of the team next to him to come to him, and after whispering a few words in his ear, he asked him to come on the court and talk to the pitcher Tanihara.
"Pause! ~”
With the arrester Itano to the referee to suspend the application, the nine people in the midfield attached to Shenda urgently came to the pitcher's mound to discuss countermeasures.
On the other hand, in the rest area of Aoba Dodai High School, coach Kawano also arranged the next hitting tactics for the five batters who were about to hit at the same time, Maki, and the next few batters.
"The opponent has already figured out that they have a problem with their pitchers, so we have to be cautious in the next selection, either they or us, so we do that...... After Makiki goes up, he uses touch to destroy the opponent's pitch once or twice, but note that the destruction can't be real! ”
"Hay! ~" Makiki nodded in agreement.
Then coach Kawano instructed Sato, the 6-batter: "Sato, your task is to change from short to long, and you can see the opponent's curved ball path to attack, which is a relatively weak way for him in this game!" Attention, you must send back Anno at 3rd base, do you understand!? ”
"Hay! ~”
"There are 7, 8, 9 sticks to get ready, if you play, you can catch the path of the opponent's curveball and continue the attack with touch! …… Guys, the outcome of this game depends on your performance in this half game, and strive to win the game by crippling the opponent in one game! ”
"Hay! ~" This time, the people in the rest area agreed in unison.
At this time, Makiki, who was about to play, shouted a slogan to everyone: "Everyone, this is the summer that belongs to our high school baseball career, and if you don't want to leave regrets, let's go all out and bring back the victory!" ”
“~~”
As soon as Mu Mu's words came out, everyone was stunned at first.
A few second-year juniors like Watanabe and Kasuga have just experienced what it's like to play in Hagar as the main force, so they are so excited that they don't think about how they will face Hagar at this time next year.
But people like Maki, Sato and others are different, they have just been promoted to the third grade, and this is indeed the last time they will participate in Hagar in their high school career.
Just like the seniors of the previous class, they are already old men in the baseball club at this time, and they are in their playing years, but they are also about to retire from the stage......
So at this time, Makaki's words inevitably resonated with several third-year students on the team, and Sato, Hoshino, and several people from the logistics team were silent.
Yes, it's another summer that is about to pass! ~
So in the next moment, a roar erupted in the rest area of Aoba Dodai High School: "Win the victory, our summer is not over yet!" ~Roar Roar Roar~~" (To be continued.) )
