233. Bad start

On the opening day of the Koshien National Championship, Aoba Dodai High School faced their first strong opponent on the first day of the tournament. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Representative from Nishitokyo FC International Academy.

As for the strength of this opponent, although it is the first time for everyone on the side of Aoba Dodai High School to play against him, it can be seen from the information collected in advance that this team swept all the way to the opponent in this year's West Tokyo District Tournament and entered the Koshien National Championship strongly.

From here, it can be seen that the strength of this team is definitely not to be underestimated!

In more detail, Nishitokyo FC Academy played a total of 4 games in the regional competition, and the whole team made a total of 19 valid hits, of which 11 were home runs for direct scoring, and 4 were bats with points.

On the playing line, they have Lee Sang-yu, a South Korean exchange student who specializes in starting assaults, who is responsible for guarding the right field, as a sharp knife; American exchange student Terry, who is known for his strong blows. Anderson batted as a 5-batter and guarded 3-base; Mizuno Kirihashi, a local powerhouse player who is good at handling all kinds of difficult catches and a strong 3-batter player;

And then there's the absolute soul core of this team, their ace pitcher, Ito Nabi!

It is said that Itonabi has the butterfly ball, which is known as the king of changing the ball, and while perfectly retaining the strange and impermanent changes of the butterfly ball, it can also increase its ball speed to a terrifying level of 140 km/h.

This killing pitch made a big splash at this year's Nishitokyo Regional Tournament.

Let the beaters of the 4 rounds of the opponent team of the West Tokyo FC International Academy return home one after another, setting a terrifying record of perfect clean sheets against all opponents in the entire district competition!

In addition, the other starting players in this team are also extraordinary, and they cannot be underestimated by Aoba Dotai High School Yasuno and others.

Such a high school team, which brings together a large number of outstanding baseball players from all over the country and even internationally, has been called by the media before the game another alternate team for the winner of this year's conference.

Of course, who these media are, everyone knows that it is that without saying it......

…………………………

"Oh West~~ Please advise!"

"Please advise!"

After the two teams saluted at home plate before the game, the game finally began in anticipation after an air raid siren sounded over the field.

In the first half of the first game, Aoba Dodai High School guarded half a game.

The starting pitcher on the pitcher's mound is Mitsuru Hayakawa, the team's former ace.

The reason why he didn't let Kasuga's ace shoot as soon as he came up, for everyone on the side of Aoba Dodai High School, firstly, Kasugamo had just experienced a fight two days ago, although Kasugamo didn't suffer much damage in this matter, but whether it was the coach or the other players in the team, they all hoped that Kasugamo could recuperate and adjust his condition to reach his best before playing.

At the same time, this can also be regarded as a punishment for coach Kawano to be brave and ruthless with Kasugayun and act with others!

Second, in the Koshien competition, as the veteran core player of the team, Hayakawa Mitsuru is better than the stable performance ability that Kasuga Cloud needs as the starting pitcher, so he plays the starter and Kasuga Cloud serves as the relay rescue pitcher, which is definitely the best configuration of Aoba Dotai High School in the pitcher team!

The camera returned to the game, and the first opponent in the first game was Lee Sang-yu, an exchange student from South Korea, who was about 175 tall and looked very handsome and sunny.

Especially this guy's skin is so fair that he can't speak, which is comparable to what many girls say.

Coupled with his good strength in the baseball club, he is good at decoy and attack, and his batting average can reach a respectable 2.58 in the district competition.

The information about the hitter at Nishitokyo FC Academy flashed through his mind, and Hayakawa exchanged glances with Yasuno on the other side of the base area with a serious expression.

Anno immediately put his gloves under the outside corner of the middle ball road, and hinted at a position close to the ground with a good ball belt: Hayakawa-kun, come on! ~Try this guy's skills!

Hayakawa nodded in agreement, and immediately stepped on the pitcher's board to announce that he was about to pitch.

Then, Hayakawa threw the baseball in his hand with all his might.

"Whew! ~”

The speed of the ball is not ridiculously fast, only around 135 km/h.

But if you look closely through the slow motion, you can see that the spin in Hayakawa's shot is very strong, and it is obvious that this is a finger fork ball!

It was a tentative goalkeeping pitch.

Because Hayakawa and Yasuno know very well that in the Koshien National Championships, especially when they appear in the first match, the players are generally easy to get excited, which also makes Lee Sang-yu, who is a fighter, and it should be the same.

So Yasuno and Hayakawa were betting on whether he would be able to endure such a shot, which looked very good, but in fact, it was a trap ball that flew towards him with all his strength when he swung his bat.

However, they were disappointed.

In the first ball, Li Shangyu didn't move and directly missed the ball.

"Bad ball! ~”

"Yes! ~”

Anye and Hayakawa couldn't help but be a little surprised after seeing it, because Li Shangyu was really calm when he stood in the strike zone!

In view of this, Anno, as a catcher, immediately changed his strategy and paired Hayakawa with a good ball with a speedball from the outside edge of the upper corner.

Hayakawa threw the ball with all his might, but this time Lee Sang-yu made a move.

He hit the ball with precision and sent it flying high and far.

Fortunately, in the end, because the ball went in a different direction, coupled with some wind today, this high flying ball went out of bounds and became a useless blow.

Hayakawa then threw the third ball and pressed it into the inside corner with the direction of the slider.

But this time Li Shangyu obviously grasped Hayakawa's intention, lightly put his front foot outward, did not have much tiptoe stretching action, relying on the twisting power of the waist and abdomen to forcibly drive both hands to swing the bat, and hit the ball thrown by Hayakawa to the left field to form an effective blow.

"Roar Roar Roar ~~~"

"That's it~~"

"Well played, played beautifully~"

"Ahhhh ~”

"What love! ~~I'm going to have a relationship with you~~"

Lee Sang-yu, who hit the ball with a hit, raised his hand to the stands outside the court very loudly after successfully going to first base, which amused the fans in West Tokyo one by one.

Of course, 100% of these fans are all from the girls' tribe......

As soon as the game opened, someone immediately went to the base, which made the hearts of everyone on the side of Deaoba Dodai High School be raised.

On the field, Akai and others comforted Hayakawa on the pitcher mound: "It's okay, focus on the next hitter, and strive to win the first out!" ~”

"Come on! ~It's up to you, Hayakawa-kun! ~”

"Hayakawa senior, come on, wow......"

"Come on, come on, Aoba, come on, come on, Hayakawa! ~”

Then, make a substitution.

The second player at Nishitokyo FC International Academy was Misa Haramiya, who was guarding first base, and was a muscular male player with a strong build.

A short head of hair, a pale brow, round eyes, a big nose, a big mouth, and a strong grip on the bat with both hands, forcing the blood vessels on the arms to be exposed to everyone's sight like earthworms.

His thick legs were firmly pinned to the ground, making one imagine that even if someone weaker than him ran into him with all his might, he might not be able to hit him.

This is a steady striker - Hayakawa and Yasuno came to their own preliminary judgment on Haramiya, the second baseman of Nishitokyo FC International Academy.

So according to this judgment, Yasuno and Hayakawa cooperated tacitly to open the way to the outside corner kick in the first goal.

I never thought that the first goal of the Nishitokyo FC International Academy's 2 batters Haramiya would be in trouble!

Instead of throwing the ball away with a powerful blow like his appearance, he flexibly and lightly used the deception to play with a long and short touch, lightly knocking the bat into the flying baseball, and knocking out an infield roll ball that rolled to the left.

At this time, Akai, Maki, and Aihara in the inner field on the field of Aoba Dodai High School were shocked and shouted: "Hayakawa attention, 1st base direction, hurry!" ~”

Although Hayakawa reacted quickly to intercept the ball, the speed of the return pass was still half a second slower, although Haramiya, the 2nd baseman of Nishitokyo FC International Academy, was burly, but his feet were very fast, and when Hayakawa passed the ball to 1 base with the intention of blocking him, he took the lead in sliding the base and successfully occupied the 1st base.

At the same time, Haramiya's teammate, 1 batter Lee Sang-yu, also took advantage of the situation to occupy the 2nd base pack.

As soon as the game opened, Aoba Dodai High School immediately fell into a predicament, and was successfully captured by Nishitokyo FC International Academy in the first inning, when no one was out of the game, and the 1st and 2nd base packs were successfully captured, forming a situation of pressing on the side of Aoba Dotai step by step.

Next, Nishitokyo FC International Academy is about to start their journey of the strongest three players in the center of the field, and for a while, all kinds of unfavorable voices about Aoba Dodai High School sounded everywhere in Koshien Stadium.
