The match against the Southern Suburbs High School in the summer league regional selection tournament is still underway. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, the number of innings has come to the 4th inning, and Watanabe, the starting pitcher of Aoba Dodai High School, has already used more than 70 balls at this time!

This number of pitches is a bit too much for a pitcher, but Watanabe doesn't pay much attention to it, because one of his most important goals in this game is to practice the new tactic he and catcher partner Anno created called forced destruction.

Forced, the meaning of chasing; To extinguish is to eliminate and eliminate......

This is a set of tactics to fight wits and courage with the beater!

At first glance, it is very simple, it is to throw the ball continuously and quickly, so that the opponent hitter can minimize the time to think about the ball path, and then after creating a certain degree of tension, suddenly coldly apply a change ball that is quite different from the previous ball path, so that the hitter is stunned and misses the blow and is eliminated from the game.

But such a simple tactic, if you really want to implement it, it is not as simple as it seems!

For example, the pitcher and catcher need to consider the ball path match for the hitter's position and hitting posture each time; There is also the urgency of time to chase the ball, and finally create a sense of tension among the hitters and then throw the decisive ball......

Every small step is a test of the pitcher-catcher duo's multiple tactical applications against the hitter. The consequence of the slightest deviation is that the batter succeeds in hitting a ruthless long hit, or even a home run that can score directly.

This is not what Watanabe and Anno want to see, so the energy spent by the two of them in each ball count during the game is far more strenuous than in the normal state of play.

At this time, if you look at the two of them closely, you will find that Watanabe and Anno's jerseys have been wet with sweat for a long time.

In this way, the situation of the game was successfully pursued by the forcing tactics created by Watanabe and Anno, and the southern suburbs high school was forced to hand over a complete report card of zero hits, zero points, and zero bases in the first five innings.

On the other hand, Aoba Dodai High School beat Aihara with 4 bats from the team, and in the third inning of the game, he successfully hit a Yangchun cannon (a 1-point home run when no one was on base), and successfully took the lead by 1 point.

After 5 innings, during the halftime offensive and defensive exchange time, Kawano, the coach in the rest area of Aoba Dodai High School, said to a group of students under him: "Good job, everyone! ~ Next, we have to adjust our tactics and try to take out the opponent in one go! ”

"Hay! ~" Under the favorable situation, the students of Aoba Dodai High School responded loudly in unison.

Then, after saying the words of encouragement, coach Kawano began to arrange the next lineup: "Yo Xi, very good, in the next 6th game, Maki you will change Anno, Hayakawa will change Watanabe, and the positions of the others will remain the same!" We have only one goal, and that is ......"

"Win the game! ~" Yasuno and the others shouted excitedly.

………………

In the 6th game, Aoba Dodai High School began to change formations, replacing the shooting on the court with Maki and Hayakawa.

I thought that I could breathe a sigh of relief, but I didn't expect that this was just out of Longtan and into the tiger's den!

Yes, although Hayakawa does not have Watanabe's obscene and calculating style of play, his precise ball control and strong ball power contained in a controllable range of up to 140 kilometers are enough to make them feel good!

"Whew~~"

"Peng~~"

"Whew~~"

"Peng~~"

"Whew~~"

"Peng~~"

"Three good shots, batsman out!"

"Whew~~"

"Peng~~"

"Three good shots, batsman out!"

"Offense and defense swapped! ~”

In the first half of the 6th inning, Hayakawa, who was on the court, did an excellent job of replacing the starting pitcher, so that the beaters of the southern suburbs high school were picked off one after another, and they did not score 1 point.

In the second half of the game, the hitters of Aoba Dodai High School launched a general attack on Hinata, the pitcher of Southern Suburbs High School.

Kobayashi, who was 2 batters, began to use an infield decoy short touch to deceive pitcher Hinata's defense and successfully hit 1st base, and then 3 batter Yasuno caught a slider thrown by Hinata and hit the right Chang'an hit with a bat.

The final landing point of the baseball was almost about 5 meters away from the home run wall, and such a long hit with a deep depth knocked out, allowing De Anno to send himself to the second base bag at the same time, and also successfully sent Kobayashi on the original first base bag back to home plate to get his team's second point in the game.

Subsequently, the attack on Aoba Dodai High School continued.

The four-bat hit Aihara caught a drifting ball from southern suburbs high school pitcher Hinata and hit a second base hit to send teammate Yasuno back to home plate to take the lead by 3 points.

After the 5-stick Makiki came on the court, he saw that the pitcher Hinata of the southern suburbs high school was already very nervous, so he fell into the well mercilessly, and successfully knocked out a crossing ball with the decoy play of short play to long play.

Although he didn't score a score, at least he sent himself to first base, and his teammate Aihara, who was originally on second base, also went up to third base because of this consecutive hit.

At this time, the score of this game has come to 3:0, no one has ever been out of Aoba Dotai High School, there are people on the first and third bases, as long as you remember the successful hit, there is a possibility of scoring at any time.

The southern suburbs high school couldn't calm down, and the coach hurriedly came on the court and pulled all the players to the pitcher's mound to make on-the-spot tactical adjustments.

Perhaps it was the timeout that had an effect, and then the 6th and 7th basemen of Aoba Dodai High School were eliminated by the Southern Suburbs High School pitcher with a strikeout.

At this time, Kawano, the coach of Aoba Dodai High School, said to Kudo, the 8-batter who was about to hit the game: "Kudo, wait for you to play like this, like this, play like this, do you understand!?" ”

Kudo listened to the coach's whispered prompts to himself, and immediately his eyes lit up and patted his chest and reassured, "Hai, thank you for the coach's guidance!" ~ Then I went. ”

"Yes! ~”

What did Coach Kawano say to Kudo!?

I saw that after the 8-batter Kudo came on the court, he put on a chasing-style stance on the position, standing close to the sideline in the direction of home plate, and leaning out slightly with his upper body.

The bat in his hand was clenched in a fist position, obviously trying to hit quickly.

The most important thing is that Kudo chose to hit not the right strike zone this time, but stood in the left strike zone, because the hint that coach Kawano gave him just now was that in this game, the southern suburbs high school pitcher Hinata threw too many outside corner kicks, so the purpose of Kudo this time was the outside corner of the original right hit area, and now the ball on the inside corner in the left hit area is coming.

Something went wrong at the southern suburbs high school, and the catcher Kajima hurriedly exchanged sign language to the pitcher: "Hinata-kun, the situation is not quite right!" ~ The opponent seems to have caught one of your balls to attack! ”

Hinata replied: "I don't know, but I don't care about him, let's come according to the original plan!" ”

Nakajima said in sign language: "Okay, this time inside corner kick, rib speedball, suppression, come on!" ”

Hinata immediately nodded in agreement and stepped on the board and began to throw the ball with all his might: "Come on, Aoba Dotai High School, I won't let you get on base easily!" ”

Although the ball is not the best shot, the ball is a little high.

But it's also more of a bad ball in the inside corner, so if Kudo, the hitter of Aoba Dotai High School, doesn't know how to avoid it, he will definitely be hit by the ball.

Is it to get the ball, or to avoid the ball to get the ball......

Under normal circumstances, Kudo should choose the latter.

However, the reality was the opposite, and he chose the former, using his elbow with a thick protective gear to block the incoming ball.

"Touch the ball! ~Guaranteed 1st base! ”

"What!?" The pitcher Hinata and catcher Kajima at the southern suburbs high school were stunned: "Oh, I actually chose a hard block to escort, and I don't want to get the ball!?" ”

"This bastard~~" Hinata scolded in a low voice, and then put the matter aside, ready to concentrate on the next beater.

But the next 9 batters to appear were Tohara, who played as a substitute, and he also chose the left zone to attack this time.

And not only that, but Tsuchihara's offensive style is the same as that of Kudo before him, which is to use a chasing-up style to stand forward to face the pitcher Hinata's pitch.

"Damn, what are you trying to do!? Addicted to porcelain!? "Southern suburbs high school pitcher Hinata looked at this with some depression and thought about it.

So this time, Hinata kicked an outside corner kick to open the game.

But Tohara wasn't so easy to fool, knocking the ball out of the border with a single bat.

In the second ball, Hinata continued to throw the outside corner, and Tsuchihara played again.

"Stick~" sounded, and the ball was hit again to the border.

The third goal, continuing to the outside corner, was selectively missed by Tsuchihara because it was a bad ball.

On the 4th ball, Hinata threw a curveball in the middle, and Tsuchihara hesitated to play the bat, but he was lucky enough to hit the baseball and hit the side of his feet and became a throw-in.

At this time, Tsuchihara wiped the cold sweat on his forehead violently, and secretly thought: I'm really dangerous! Damn, can't you just throw an inside corner kick to Uncle Ben to touch porcelain!? It won't hurt much if my flesh is smashed by the ball, and besides, the pain is not good for you! ~~

Tsuchihara was depressed, but Hinata, the pitcher at Nanjiao High School, was even more depressed, because he already knew in his heart that the opponent was forcing him to throw an inside corner, but after being hit in a row in the front, Hinata began to be a little timid and reluctant to attack head-on.

So he went on to throw outside corners.

However, at this time, Tsuchihara unexpectedly suddenly swung the short hit to a long one, and hit Hinata's high-speed ball in the outer corner.

"Whew! ~~”

In the guidance area, teammates immediately raised their hands and shouted, "Homerun, run!" ~”

"Hoo, homerun, please make a home run! ~”

After the blow, after throwing away the bat, he looked at the baseball that flew away and said: "I fly, I fly, I fly high~~homerun!" Please, kid, you want homerun! ~”

Well, maybe it was really Tsuchihara's prayer that had an effect, maybe it was really the strength......

In the end, the baseball really floated like that, and it floated out of the home run wall.

After this home run, the South Suburbs High School has lost 5 points, and the game has come to the bottom half of the 7th inning, and the chances of the South Suburbs High School winning have looked slim!

This situation made many players in the southern suburbs high school on the court have a thought in their hearts that they want to surrender like this: alas...... It's still not as good as Daotai High School! ~

The result of the final game can be imagined, in the 7th game was hit by the southern suburbs high school in a row, and in the subsequent 8 and 9 innings, there was no intention to fight back, and the regret of 0:5 lost the regional selection match of the summer league and was kicked out early.
