Chapter 62: Thrilling Promotion! (4th more change)
Seido High School's competition for the first place in Kanto was far more intense than people imagined. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info originally thought that Seido would win overwhelmingly, but he didn't expect it to turn into a fierce pitcher battle.
In this competition, there are many people who were originally national star players. For example, pitcher Eijun Sawamura, such as Yang Ping, for example, Ichiro Mizusawa, who has been very dazzling since childhood.
But it is not they who are really edified, but someone else.
Kanto's No. 1 ace pitcher - Takushi Harada!
Harada was also a high-profile star player, but there is still a gap in fame compared to the three people mentioned above.
But after today, it's different.
Anyone who really pays attention to high school baseball will know that there is another talented baseball boy who has been born, and his name is - Harada Qiao.
"Good ball, good ball!"
After the two good balls were chased, Yang Ping swung his bat at the third ball.
When he swung his bat, the whole world seemed to stand still, and he saw the ground shake in the strike zone.
"Ping!"
The bat swept onto the baseball and flew it away.
The ball flew out, but Yang Ping's face was not good-looking. The ball just now was half a ball higher than the previous height, so that his goal was high!
"Nakaofield!"
Harada Qiao, a rare shouting reminder.
The No. 1 stalwart in Kanto also competed, ran to the landing point of the baseball one step ahead, opened his gloves, and took the baseball.
"Out!"
Three up, three down!
Qingdao, including Yang Ping, three up and three down.
In the cowshed, the atmosphere in Qingdao suddenly dropped to freezing.
One point, Kataoka's requirements are not high at all, as long as one point is good, but just this point, it seems a little far away.
in the audience.
"What a stupid! If that pitcher had used a finger fork against Yang Ping earlier, he might have been able to keep a clean score. ”
Yasuhiro Suzuki crossed his arms, crossed Jiro's legs, and said leisurely.
Sugimoto Sangen shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, the reason why Harada Qiao didn't use Yang Ping's quick finger fork ball was because he wasn't sure to use the fast finger fork ball to solve Yang Ping." Pitchers have a sixth sense when they reach a certain level. Maybe his intuition told him, no. ”
Although there is no way to directly solve Yang Ping with a quick finger crossball, you can use a fast finger cross ball to deal with other hitters. In this way, the impression of a fast finger fork ball remained in Yang Ping's mind. He naturally felt that Harada's straight ball was not that high......
Thinking about it, Sugimoto Sanyuan glanced at Nagakura Hao in the catcher area.
It looks like five big and three thick, and he doesn't have any heart. But this catcher's ball matching is also extraordinary.
Of course, catchers are appreciated, and pitchers who dare to throw and throw the ball to this effect are even more extraordinary.
Harada Qiao!
It looks like there is another contender to the top pitcher in the country.
The overall score was 2:0, and Qingdao High School led by two points.
There was only the last half of the game left, and Kanto was the first to attack.
Before going on the field, the coach of Kanto Daiichi gathered everyone together.
"We're the last chance, and we're going to continue the offensive no matter what."
"Ah!!!h
On the Kanto side, the roars of the players suddenly came out.
In the cowshed of Qingdao Road.
"With just three outs, the victory is ours!"
Yang Ping's voice was cold.
Sawamura, who was preparing to climb the pitcher's mound, didn't say anything.
Now his whole mind is on the court, and he can't listen to anything else.
In the second half of the ninth inning, Kanto was the first to attack.
The starter was the eighth.
Yang Ping glanced at the beater and gave Sawamura a code.
No need to waste the ball, keep our own rhythm and throw it.
First Ball: Ordinary Inner Corner Quirk Ball!
The eighth baton of Kanto No. 1, kept recalling the words of the coach in his mind.
"Don't hesitate to aim for the first ball. The more you try to wait for a good ball, the more the good ball will not come, and you will only waste the number of balls, so instead of that, it is better to swing the bat at the beginning. ”
As soon as you start, swing the bat!
Sawamura's first goal, he didn't hesitate to shoot.
In his opinion, Sawamura's goal is nothing more than an ordinary inside corner. Although it is difficult to judge the timing of the stick because you can't see the shooting point and the pitching posture is weird, the angle of the ball is still very clear.
With judgment, it is natural not to hesitate to swing the stick.
"Ping!"
The ball was hit, but the person who hit the ball had a very strange face, and when the bat approached, the ball had a new change, and it sank.
Although it only sank a little, it was a fraction of a thousand miles.
A baseball that could have been played off turned into a suicidal infield rebound ball.
"Hip hop!"
Kuramochi arrived on a slap and passed the ball to first base to the front garden.
"Smack!"
Maezono raised his arm after receiving the baseball.
"Out!"
That's it.
"One out, two outs short."
Sawamura on the pitcher's mound suddenly gestured and shouted at the fielders.
"One out!"
"Let them fight, we'll take it."
"Rest assured, they fight."
After Sawamura spoke, the fielders regained their momentum one by one.
Qingdao is the champion of the summer league, and the experience of dealing with tight matches cannot be said to be absent. However, the current Qingdao players have made a lot of adjustments to the summer Qingdao players. Now this Qingdao team, there are not many experienced sincere people.
At this time, Sawamura was no longer just a pitcher, but the leader of a team.
This side of Sawamura showed, even Ochiai was surprised.
Was this really the simple boy he knew?
Everyone forgot that the experience of the Sawamura National Championship did not start from Koshien.
Rather, in the middle school years.
At that time, he was the captain of the team, the ace, and the spiritual leader.
Without Yang Ping, Akagi would not exist. Without Sawamura, Akagi would have lost his soul.
The experience of leading a team, Sawamura also has.
"Good ball, good ball, good ball, strikeout."
After taking the first out, he followed up with a strikeout.
Eijun Sawamura looks unstoppable.
"First stick, Kaji Kotani!"
At this time, the original tactics of the first Kanto came into play.
At a critical time, they reincarnated their core line.
Although the dream came true, the coach of Kanto No. 1 was not happy at all.
So far, the team has only played one hit, Sawamura Eijun, this teenager is too awesome, right?
"Good shot!"
"Out of bounds!"
"Bad ball!"
"Out of bounds!"
"Good shot!"
……
Although Kaji Kotani was very unwilling and entangled several balls, he did not escape the fate of being struck out in the end.
The game is over!
King Qingdao High School, the first to advance to the semifinals!
In this game, Yang Ping and Sawamura performed well, but it was Harada who really achieved it.
In nine innings, only one home run and three hits were allowed for Qingdao.
Suppressing Qingdao to such an extent, whether it is said or not, it is very rare.
