On this afternoon, on the court of the Aoba Dodai High School Baseball Club, a baseball game was played between the first-year rookie team and the baseball club's three army reserves. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Shortly after the start of the game, in the first half of the first inning, Shuichi Minamino, the first batter of the three armies, hit the ball thrown by the pitcher of the first-year team, Hisachi Watanabe, but unexpectedly just hit a high flying ball and was caught and killed.

When it was the turn of the second batter, Satohiko Miyazaki, to come on the court, because he had prepared in advance, even though the pitcher Hisachi Watanabe used a slider, he was still hit by Satohiko Miyazaki with a fancy swing similar to a tennis volley, and the ball was knocked out.

In the chaos of the first-year rookie team, baseball flew directly above the pitcher to the guerrilla zone, but before the shortstop could catch the flying ball, the ball bounced off the ground first and rolled through the shortstop guard and rolled into the field.

And in such a delayed time, the three-service hitter Satohiko Miyazaki had already run to first base, and then took advantage of the gap when the midfielders of the first-year rookie team had not had time to fill in the position to catch the ball, Miyazaki Satohiko actually took the risk of breaking through the base bag of second base.

All of a sudden, a field hit made the first time that someone from the three armies had assaulted a dangerous point on the first-year rookie line, and as long as one more person got on base, the score of the three army reserves would be absolutely inevitable.

The situation suddenly went in a bad direction, which made all the members of the first-year rookie team, who were originally quite confident at the beginning, feel a little shocked in their hearts.

"It's okay, Watanabe-kun, focus on the beater, the garrison still has us!"

"yes, yes, just focus on getting rid of the next two beaters."

"Once you're out, come again, Watanabe-kun! ~”

Despite the blows, many of the first-year rookie team quickly picked themselves up and began cheering on their pitchers.

……

On the other side, the players of the first and second armies who were watching the game were being selected, and at this time, they were watching the show with relaxed expressions.

Kiyoshi Kobayashi, the most petite in the army, asked his friend Jun Ogata at this time: "Hey, do you think those rookies in the first grade of this game can hold it!?" ”

Ogata replied coolly: "If you can hold it, it proves that the rookie has some skills, but if you can't keep it, it proves that the guys in the three armies are not in vain in their daily work, otherwise...... Hmph, I wouldn't mind helping them practice after the game! ”

"Ahh ”

"Hey~ Qingzhi, you have no enmity with the three armies, right!?"

"No!?" Kobayashi Qingzhi suddenly heard Yuehua Blade on his other side ask such an inexplicable word, and then replied naturally.

"If you don't have revenge, then why are you cursing the three armies to lose!?"

"I like it, okay!?"

Definitely, hearing this, Yuehua Blade was directly defeated, what else could he say about such a wayward lord!?

But despite this, in fact, a smile like Kobayashi Qingzhi's face also appeared on Yuehua Blade's face at this time, at the corner of his mouth: Okay, let's do it! This kind of thing is really fun at any time......

……

Speaking of which, when the second batter Satomhiko Miyazaki successfully hit second base, the next third batter, Ryui Horibe, stood in the strike zone with a domineering appearance, and pointed the pitcher Kutomo Watanabe on the pitcher mound with his bat.

The meaning is unclear, as long as anyone familiar with the rules of baseball knows, the meaning of this provocative behavior is: I want to blow you up!

This made the pressure on Hisachi Watanabe, who had to pitch on the mound, even more: Hey, hey~~ Senior, it's just a practice game, so take it seriously!?

This time, because they had to start facing the center line, the catcher Kumata Tsuchihara and the pitcher Hisachi Watanabe were both very nervous and serious, and after a series of code exchanges, Watanabe finally decided to start with a sliding ball and a bad ball in the lower corner.

Once decided, Watanabe began to step on the pitcher's board.

However, unlike the boom throw used in the previous pitching, in order to contain the second base player Satohiko Miyazaki behind him, Watanabe Hisatochi adopted another pitching method - fixed pitching at this time, because there were people on the base pack.

I saw that after Hisachi Watanabe's right foot stepped on the pitcher's board, he turned his body to the right first, turned sideways, and turned his head to look at Satohiko Miyazaki on second base.

Then, after lifting his left leg, he did not raise his foot to the same height as his waist like the vibrating arm throw just now, but only raised the ball of his foot about 20 centimeters from the ground and immediately strode out to the left side of his body.

The subsequent pitching action was the same as the previous shot of the sliding ball hit by Satohiko Miyazaki, and the baseball immediately flew straight towards home plate, and when it was almost 4 or 5 meters away, the ball suddenly changed direction and flew towards the low corner outside the good ball belt.

And Ryui, who was standing on the strike zone, had actually swung his stick out at this time......

"Awesome~"

The ball was in the ball, but everyone saw clearly that the ball was flying in the direction of the out-of-bounds, so the referee immediately announced: "Good ball!" ~”

"Whew~~"

Watching the ball go out of bounds, everyone on the first-year rookie team breathed a sigh of relief again: It's so dangerous......

In the second ball, Hisachi Watanabe and Kumata Tsuchihara discussed in secret that they wanted to fight with an inside corner high ball.

So when the ball was thrown, the eyes of the two immediately kept staring at the three armies and three batters standing in the strike area, Ryui Horibe, to see how he responded.

And Ryui Horibe did not disappoint the two and swung his baton again.

"Great! ~”

The baseball was knocked out of bounds again, but this time it flew in the direction of the back of home plate, so it can be seen that this time Ryui Horibe just hit the ball with the bat!

In the third ball, Hisachi Watanabe made a steady shot to lure Ryui Horibe to the bat, but it was unsuccessful. Because the ball is really a bit off.

At this time, Watanabe's third batter against the three armies had already thrown two good and one bad balls, and together with the previous two balls against the first bat, he threw a total of 5 balls with all his arms.

It doesn't sound like a lot, but the amount of effort involved in the battle of wits between the pitcher and the batter is much more than the offensive effort spent in basketball and football!

No, Hisachi Watanabe, who had just finished throwing a ball, took a deep breath with a little shortness of breath, and then wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve, and then returned to the state and continued to discuss with his partner Kumata Tsuchihara with a secret word about the way to throw the next ball.

"What's next!?"

"You must not throw a good way to play, this time I still use an outside corner speedball, low the ball, I am not afraid of throwing a bad ball, but I must not give the senior of the department an easy way to hit the ball, come on!" After playing the code, Kumata Tsuchihara immediately moved his body and placed his gloves in the low corner of the outer low corner just off the good ball belt, waiting for Hisachi Watanabe to throw the ball over.

After Kuchi Watanabe nodded in agreement, he stepped on the board and pitched.

"Whew~"

"Great! ~”

Ryui Horibe hit the ball out of bounds again: hum...... Boy, boil slowly, Uncle Ben said today that if he wants to blow you up, he must blow you up! ~

After that, it was an entanglement between the two, and then the two sides fought back and forth for four more balls, and without exception, Ryui Horibe hit all out of bounds.

Just before preparing for the next blow, Ryui Horibe made the provocative move of pointing the stick at the pitcher Watanabe Hisatochi who had just come up to strike: "Okay, I'm tired of playing so many balls, and I'm tired of playing this ball, so this next blow will solve you!" ”

Hearing the confident words of Horibe Ryui, and the natural look of everyone in the three armies, at this time, everyone in the first-year rookie team, even if he is a layman like Kasuga, can see that the series of throw-ins before Horibe Ryui of the three armies was deliberately played by him.

And his purpose......

Maybe it's to tease them as first-graders, maybe...... Maybe you want the pitcher to keep the number of pitches going forward, so that the pitcher may be able to throw too many shots in the middle of the game because of the excessive physical exertion of the arm and soreness, and finally the control of the pitch is not enough to make a burst of throwing and have to regret leaving!

Everyone clearly knows that although there are a lot of first-year freshmen rookies, only Hisachi Watanabe has the ability to pitch on the pitcher's hill!

Once Hisachi Watanabe is removed from the court, there will only be one loss for the first-year team!

This is a blatant conspiracy of the old birds of the three armies, and almost everyone in the first-year rookie team is aware of this, but they are helpless......

At the beginning of the game, the first-year rookie team encountered an unprecedented crisis!

How will they break the game!? ……
