In the corner of the stands of Koshien Stadium, a support team from Aoba Dodai High School is cheering hard for the players who are playing on the court. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
And among the people in this support team, there are several people who are different from the fans who are crazy and shouting for support.
At this time, the game has already started in the first half of the fifth inning in the middle of the game.
On the field, Kasuga, the relay pitcher who was newly replaced by Aoba Dodai High School, directly used 3 tough pitches to beat the opponent Nishitokyo FC International Academy's 4 bats and Ito Nabi, who is also the team's ace pitcher, and eliminated the strikeouts from the game.
Although the result was a bit unexpected, what really fell into the eyes of these people who were mixed in with the support team of Aoba Dodai High School was the path that made the Nishitokyo FC International Academy's 4 strong bats against Ito's 3 balls.
"Kagawa-kun, what do you think!" One of them asked.
Kagawa heard his companion's question, thought for a moment and replied, "Well...... It's too far away to see what is going on, but I think these 3 shots must not be easy! ”
"Hehe~" The person who asked just now smiled and said: "Of course it's not simple, this is Sanada Toru of Sanada in Sanagami High School, a soul-in-soul pitch, it's strange that it can be simple!" ”
As soon as Kagawa heard the name, he was immediately surprised: "One Ball into the Soul Style!! ~~ How is this possible!? Maeya-senpai, you read that right!? How could Sanada-kun's one-goal soul entry style be stolen by others at Sanagami High School, impossible! ~”
Maetani smiled lightly and put his eyes on the court again, to be precise, at the high ground on the field, the body of Kasugayun standing on the pitcher's mound.
"Interesting, I didn't expect that this year's Kanagawa Prefecture did not have Yamajin High School, but there was a branch of Aoba Dodai High School...... Hehe, let me see how much strength you have. ”
After that, Maetani and Kagawa stopped talking and watched the game intently.
Although several members of their group did not reveal their identities from beginning to end, there were still some fans around who recognized their identities.
Aichi Toho Academy's main pitcher Takehito Maetani, 3 bats and 1st base guard Shingo Kagawa, and two other players who are also the main players of the team, Yuu Hokuto with 7 bats and Koichiro Yamaguchi with 1 bat.
On the other side, in the audience not far from the stands of Aoba Dodai High School, another group of people were watching the ball game intently and with great interest, just like those from Toho Gakuin in Aichi.
Judging from the fact that these people are wearing the same style of uniform jersey and pinning the uniform on the school emblem, it is clear that these people are from another popular winning seed team, Kagoshima Minoru Gakuin.
I saw that these Kagoshima Shigakuin team members didn't communicate much, but watched the game quietly.
But if someone who is careful notices, you can see that the place where these people's eyes are looking at is exactly the direction that Shingo Maeya, the main force of Aichi Toho Academy, was looking at - Pitcher Hill.
There is also the East Tokyo team Kanto Daiichi Academy, Saitama's Hanasaki Tokuei Academy, and so on...... The main players of the famous favorite seed teams in the conference are scattered in the stands on the court at the moment, watching the game very seriously.
……………………
On the other side, on the court, the defense of Aoba Dodai High School in the first half of the 5th inning came to the offensive time of the third hitter.
Akasaka, the sixth-batter of Nishitokyo FC International Academy, had already shown his ability to counter the pitcher in the third inning.
But in the 5th inning, Akasaka's gaze and momentum that had put a lot of pressure on the starting pitcher Hayakawa of Aoba Dodai High School in the 3rd inning was like a mouse seeing a cat, and was in turn suppressed by Kasuga, the relay pitcher of Aoba Dodai High School.
"Whew!! ~”
As soon as the ball came, Akasaka's reaction was half a beat slower before swinging the bat, plus he didn't think too much at all, purely relying on instinctive reactions, naturally such a swing blow obviously didn't have much attack power, so that the ball thrown by Kasugayun slammed into the glove of the catcher Anno behind the middle of the good ball belt without pressure.
"Three good shots, batsman out!" At this time, the referee pulled the bow and shouted: "Three outs, offense and defense are exchanged!" ”
"Damn, I was scared!" Akasaka only reacted at this time, and his face was extremely bad.
But Akasaka was helpless, because he had been mentally prepared before he was struck by this blow to the ground.
But at this moment, Akasaka's originally cold and expressionless and rigid face still inevitably showed a crack of collapse, and the anger of chagrin clearly climbed on his face.
However, Akasaka is Akasaka, worthy of the iceberg man in the baseball club of FC Nishitokyo International Academy, and he quickly collected his frustration and returned to the rest area.
In the rest area, coach Sanyuan was not calm at this time, he quickly called all the main forces to his side and said: "Hela, this is the situation!" Now, we've been cornered. I can say for sure that Aoba Dodai High School will definitely be the strongest opponent we will face in this tournament, so I hope you will be more involved in the next competitions.
We need to find out the opponent's weakness as soon as possible, analyze it, and defeat him! Do you have the confidence to do it!? ”
"There is !!" The main players of Nishitokyo FC International Academy responded loudly.
"That's good! ~" Coach Mihara said the next tactical arrangement for Aoba Dodai High School at this time: "Next, we must first try to ensure that our side does not lose points first in the defensive half game, so that we can win!" After that, let's think about how to break the game controlled by the ace pitcher of the opponent Aoba Dotai High School.
Guys, listen, because the opponent actually has one more move to kill than we expected, fortunately, we have encountered the 'one-ball soul' pitch before, and we have the experience to deal with it, so one of our top priorities at present is how to crack the opponent's 'one-ball soul' pitch as soon as possible.
Listen, after a year of preparation, everyone has a great understanding of Sanada Toru Sanada's 'one-ball soul-in-the-soul' pitching at Sangami High School.
So in the next half of the offensive game, you have to remember when you strike, and you have to always focus on the pitcher's right hand to pitch the ball, instead of being deceived by his guiding movements, stupidly looking at people with a murderous gaze that has been specially trained, and being scared stupid and forgetting to hit the bat.
Then there is the judgment of the ball path, as far as we know, the opponent's pitcher is good at changing the ball based on the ball path, so after we hit the player, the first position should be at the front of the strike zone, the timing of the bat is half a beat faster than the ordinary ball road, we have to fight for a batter to fly the ball out before the baseball enters the base, so that we have a chance to go to base. ”
"Hai, coach, we've got it!" Ito, the captain and core general, led a group of main players to respond to coach Mihara's tactical arrangement in unison.
Then, due to the urgency of time, coach Mihara had to briefly explain some important things to the players in front of him. After waiting for some arrangement, coach Sanyuan couldn't help but say that his mouth was a little dry.
Waiting for Ito to take a large group of main players to the court to start the second half of the 5th inning, watching the main player Ito play well on the pitcher's mound, he easily knocked out the 4 bats of Aoba Dodai High School and beat Aihara.
At this time, coach Mihara was frightened by the pitcher Kasuga of Aoba Dodai High School in the first half of the 5th inning, and the performance of the strong pitching finally stabilized.
Mihara, who regained his self-confidence, sat back on the bench and watched the game and thought: ...... It's up to you!
