57. The final moment of victory and defeat
"Whew~~"
"Peng~~"
"Three good shots, batsman out!"
"Damn bastard~"
Once again, the hitter of Shirasugi High School was eliminated by strikeouts, and this is already the second hitter of Shirasugi High School to be eliminated after the game came to the 8th inning. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the batter returned to the rest area to put the bat away, coach Takahashi asked him, "How!?" That kid's ball~"
The one who was eliminated was the 6th batter of Shirasugi High School, whose name was Ryutaro Kishimoto, and this guy was also a pretty good presence in the ball.
But today, when facing Kasuga, the relay pitcher of Aoba Dodai High School, he was eliminated with three rare swings!
Of course, if Kasugamo is the opponent's ace pitcher, then Kishimoto has nothing to say, but this relay kid is just a rookie who has just played baseball for 2 months, so he can't stand it!
However, it is undeniable that Kasuga's ball is indeed difficult to hit, and it is too erratic!
So Kishimoto replied to the coach's words with a stinky face: "Every ball of that kid is like a straight line for throwing a speedball, but every time it is close to the home base area, there is a sudden change of direction, and the direction of change is very arbitrary, I can't catch his ball to play!" ”
"Which direction is the majority!?" Coach Takahashi asked again.
Kishimoto thought about the five shots he hit just now, and then replied, "I don't know, the direction of the first ball is to hit the outside corner low to the left like a slider; The second ball is the same, and the third ball is falling straight down like a fork, but the change is very violent and sudden, and it is definitely not a fork ball; The fourth ball is even more perverted, the ball actually runs up, I %¥#・ (scolding mother's voice), the fifth ball is running down to the inside corner, like a carter ball, but it doesn't have the trickiness of a carter ball! …… Anyway, this kid's ball path is very messy, and I don't know. ”
"Really!? I see~~" After listening to Kishimoto's answer, coach Takahashi had some calculations in his heart, but he still couldn't be sure.
On the other side, in the rest area of Aoba Dodai High School, the beautiful team doctor Mina Narita was also being questioned by several beautiful managers: "Teacher, what kind of talent does Kasuga-kun have!" ~What do you say!? ”
"Yes, yes~"
"Speak quickly, teacher! ~”
Well, in the face of a row of 5 delicate beautiful students in the past who are asking you coquettishly, even Mina Narita, who is also a member of the beauty, can't stand these little flowers around her, and the coquettish words are so sweet that the bones are crisp!
So she pulled the topic to coach Kawano, she said: "Well~~ You still have to ask Mr. Kawano about this, it will be better, he is professional!" ”
"Ugh! ~~" Coach Kawano didn't expect the beautiful team doctor to come to this trick at all, and he was suddenly blocked and coughed a little, he coughed three times in a row and pretended to be serious before answering the question: "That kid's talent is called Qianfan, and it is the ultimate pitching talent in the position of pitcher in baseball, and together with another talent called Quick Kill, it is recognized as the strongest talent in the baseball world;
Let's talk about quick kill first, which means fast, extremely fast;
There is a saying that the world's martial arts are unbreakable, but fast is not broken, and quick killing is like this!
A pitcher can throw a fastball so fast that the hitter can't react at all, and even in a head-to-head matchup, he is absolutely capable of knocking out the hitter;
As the name suggests, the pitcher with this talent throws the ball unpredictably, so that the hitter can't catch the ball and strike, thus forming a knockout;
The pitcher's initial pitch is completely affected by the pitcher's pitching posture and the angle and power of the ball at the moment of grasping the ball, and it becomes unpredictable. Therefore, even if the pitcher is obviously throwing the same type of ball, there will be a variety of changes in the final change of the ball path, so that the hitter cannot catch it when he plays the batter at the end, until he is killed or directly eliminated from the game! “
"Wow~~ So powerful! ~“
"It's so strong, Kasuga-kun~"
"Eun Eun En~~"
After listening to the coach's explanation, the beautiful managers who became in a group of 5 admired each other. Even some of the students around were surprised when they heard what the coach said.
For example, ace pitcher Hayakawa and Watanabe, who started the game, were like this, they originally thought that Kasugamo had some talent in baseball and was quick to learn, but they didn't expect his talent to be so strong: it turns out that this kid has such a terrifying talent! ~~Is...... Envy, jealousy, and hatred of him~~That kid~~
However, for the surprised expressions on the faces of all those who were frightened by what he said at this time, coach Kawano thought with some disdain: This is just the beginning......
Yes, if the talent is only so capable, then it is not worthy of the title of the strongest pitcher talent!
So the final complete form of a thousand illusions is......
………………
Go to the pitch.
In the 8th game, when the second hitter of Shirasugi High School was eliminated, coach Takahashi couldn't help but be a little anxious.
Of course, he was more pressed by the ball thrown by Kasuga, who suddenly relayed the ball from Aoba Dodai High School, and Takahashi thought to himself at this time: If we can't turn the situation around in this game, then we will be in danger in the 9th game.
So he quickly pulled back the 7th batter Hakata Kamaru who was about to go on the field to strike, and whispered something to him for a while before letting Hakata come on the field to strike.
According to Takahashi, the coach of Shirasugi High School, the rookie relay pitcher of Aoba Dodai High School should have just played baseball for a long time, and his ball control was absolutely not good, so there was a phenomenon that the end of the ball changed after pitching.
In accordance with this expectation, Takahashi gave Hakata, who was in third place, an order to hit the base by striking after seeing the way of the ball!
And on the court, Hakata did the same, and the effect was obviously not like the first two hitters, but the first touch of the baseball.
This made many people in the rest area at the end of Takahashi and Shirasugi High School shout out loud, but then the guard of the Aoba Daotai was like a plate of cold water with ice, and it was splashed towards everyone in Shirasugi High School.
The third hitter, Hakata, bounced too far because of the bad touch, and Kasuga, who ran directly down the pitcher's hill, was caught nearby and passed to 1st base. At the same time, this also announced the end of the 8th game of their White Cedar High School!
"~~~" Seeing this, Takahashi's face suddenly pulled down a lot: The situation is not good! ~
On the other end, Kasuga, who was perfectly guarded, was warmly welcomed by everyone in the rest area: "Good vote!" ~“
"Awesome, awesome, Kasuga-kun! ~“
"Haha~~ You have to work harder, you vote well!"
Even Hayakawa, the team's ace pitcher, and coach Kawano faintly praised Kasuga's performance at this time, saying 'good shot, boy', which made Kasuga's original big heart and small heart become more confident when he first played.
He responded one by one, thanked his teammates for their compliments, and sat back on the bench to rest.
At this moment, a bottle of mineral water suddenly came from his left side, and at the same time, he heard a sweet voice beckoning: "For you~"
Kasugayun looked up and saw that it was actually a sweet girl Ye Yue, one of the team's beautiful managers, he didn't expect that Ye Yue would come to hand him a bottle of water to drink at this time, so he was a little stunned.
You must know that at this time, the game has entered the final decisive moment, and most people will be distracted by the next important moment. Even Ye Yue, who is a manager, should help Zhang Luo's team members with the preparations needed to wait for the game, so why do you have the intention to come over and hand over a bottle of water to Kasugayun! ~
So, the spring clouds are confused.
The people around who saw this scene were also stunned.
Well, no matter how you look at this picture, it looks like a confession scene - everyone's hearts have such thoughts about Hazuki's sudden movements.
After a while, Kasugayun saw that Ye Yue's little face was red with shame, so she quickly took the mineral water in her hand, nodded and thanked and said, "Thank you very much!" ”
"En~" After Ye Yue handed the water to Kasuga, she immediately couldn't stand everyone's red hot gaze and ran away.
After the small episode, it didn't cause much turmoil in the rest area, although there was still a small climax, but in the end, everyone's attention was still attracted back by the next 9th game that was ready to start the victory.
At this time, coach Kawano began to give them the tactics of hitting in the first half of the 9th inning: "The first Aso hit with a touch and fight for base; Second, if Aso doesn't get on base, then you continue to chase the opponent and fight for base; Third batter Watanabe, your task is the heaviest, I need you to completely knock out the opposing pitcher at this time, and then go to base to set the stage for the next score, understand!? ”
"Yes! ~" Ma Sheng, Kudo, and Watanabe immediately stood up straight and responded loudly after listening to the coach's words.
Soon, the game resumed.
Because the coaches of both sides attached great importance to this game, the first duel was very violently entangled.
Inuya faced the pursuit and touch of Aso, the first hitter of the Aoba Dodai, and there was not much to do when he came up, and after throwing two bad balls in a row, he was destroyed by Aso with a speed ball with a speed of up to 143 kilometers and hit out of bounds.
After that, it was a 4-ball speed of no less than 140 in a row, and after fighting to the death with Aso, he finally hit the Uchino on 1st base that was hit out, and was blocked by Inuya himself when he ran down the pitcher's mound and received the glove to send 1st base to block Aso and knock him out.
After Kudo, the second hitter in Aoba, came on the field, the first ball of the dog tooth was still destroyed by Kudo with a chasing touch.
Seeing this, Inuya's heart guessed that the other end of the Aoba Daotai was trying to consume his physical strength, and the third hitter, Watanabe, who was waiting in front of the rest area, shared the victory with him.
Thinking of this, Inuya naturally couldn't let the Aoba Daotai side easily get it, and immediately called his catcher to discuss the way to match the ball: The next ball, I need to completely suppress this guy!
The catcher of the white cedar returns: then use the outer corner speedball, hang him with speed, come on! ~
Inuya nodded in agreement, and he immediately threw three low-angle shots from the outside corner of the same ball, with an average speed of up to 142.3 kilometers, to suppress Kudo, leaving his touch completely out of play, and only one ball was destroyed before being knocked out with three strikeouts.
After Kudo was eliminated, Inuya, who stood on the pitcher's mound, finally ushered in the most important matchup moment of the game - the challenge of Hisatoshi Watanabe, the 9th baseman of Aoba Dodai High School and his former friend Hisachi Watanabe!
For a while, the canine teeth with slender eyes narrowed their eyes even more narrowly, staring fiercely at Watanabe, who was slowly walking on the field like a poisonous snake ready to bite, looking forward to and excitedly: "Watanabe Hisachi~~"
Watanabe, who had walked up to the strike zone and was in a good position, also raised his head and stared at the dog not far away, no one knew what he was thinking at this time, and he didn't see what preparations he had made before the strike, so he just stood there with a bat on his shoulder.
But at this time, Watanabe's heart actually has the same thoughts as Inuya, that is, there is only one thought: I will defeat you, Inuya! ~
