Chapter 14: The Horn of the Counteroffensive (Part 2)
"It's almost time for Qingdao High School to fight back. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Okumura said suddenly, startling his friends around him.
"Don't be scary, okay?"
Tuma grumbled dissatisfiedly, and then asked curiously, "Why do you say that?" ”
"Haven't you carefully studied the striking habits of Qingdao High School? Qingdao played in the first round, to be precise, the strength of the first game and the third round of the beating line was the most terrifying. Although Mukai-senpai was in good shape, he only allowed Aodo to hit three hits. But after two rounds of playing the table, I think Qingdao has already figured out the routine of Xiangjing's predecessors, and they will definitely not be so silent. ”
Okumura's words were long, but Takuma was even more surprised by Okumura's trust in Seichi. He is surprisingly confident in Qingdao?
Speaking of Kurachi, after standing in the strike zone, the whole person's face was quite cautious.
Just three hits!
Some people have always said that the current Qingdao still retains the foundation of the country's first line, but everyone knows that this foundation is just Yang Ping alone.
For others, Qingdao's line is undoubtedly degraded.
This point, even Qingdao's own people can't refute.
After the retirement of the third-year senior, the striking lineup of Qingdao High School has indeed regressed.
But he hit three hits in the sixth inning, which was still unacceptable to Kuramochi. On average, there is only one hit in two innings, and with this number of hits, Qingdao's current score is completely Yang Ping's own strength explosion, otherwise Qingdao's current score is a big duck egg.
As the champion of Koshien, Kuramochi was proud on his lips, but he also knew in his heart that he was just hitching a ride with his seniors, Miyuki, Yang Ping, and Shigu Xiao, and as far as he was concerned, he couldn't get up to this level at all.
Just because he can't get on doesn't mean he doesn't want to!
He never doubted that the current Seido still had a chance to break into Koshien, so he must make great progress during this time.
From this on-board hit, he must go to base.
With this determination, it is especially cautious when it comes to the attack.
"Bad ball!"
"Good shot!"
"Bad ball!"
……
All the dangerous balls were hit out of bounds by Kurama, and in the end, he relied on tenacious perseverance to pick up four bad balls.
"Escort to base."
The cowshed at Tee Dong High School.
Coach Okamoto's face was very ugly, "What is the number of pitches to Mukai?" ”
"Counting the eight goals just now, it's almost eighty goals."
Halfway through the game, the number of pitches was already nearly eighty. This is also the result of Mukai Kazukan consciously reducing the number of pitches.
Even if there is no strong play in the third grade, Qingdao High School still retains the tenacious line!
"Second baseman, second baseman, Kominato Haruichi classmates."
Xiao Minato's blows are definitely counted in Qingdao, if it weren't for the lack of strength, he would definitely be able to hit three or five sticks, and it is not impossible to even replace Yang Ping.
Such beaters, Qianhe Xiangjing naturally also paid attention.
But being careful doesn't mean you're going to be able to solve the hitter, the first ball you throw at the well was originally to get a good number of balls.
The ball looked like a bad ball from the outside corner, but it could get into the referee's eyes as a good ball.
The problem is that Xiao Minato doesn't care whether he throws a good ball or a bad ball at all, he just holds the long stick and knocks the ball out.
"Ping!"
The baseball was knocked out to the outside and formed a hit.
"The first ball is a swing!"
"It shows that the hitter has also watched the pitcher closely."
"Although he is not tall, the strength of this beater is still very good."
When no one is out and there are people on first base, instead of actually sending the runner to second base, they choose to let the hitter go head-to-head with the pitcher?
Ochiai glanced at Kataoka, and thought in his heart: It seems that Superintendent Kataoka also trusts this beater named Kominato very much.
Kominato went to first base, but the runner on first base didn't stop when he reached first base.
"Pass third base!"
The third baseman hurriedly opened his gloves to ask for the ball.
In his opinion, Kuramochi is simply looking for death, the field has already picked up the ball, as long as the ball is passed back, then Kuramochi is almost a certainty.
"Whoosh!"
Tedon's fielder passed the ball very quickly, and the ball was in the hands of the third baseman before Kuramochi hit base.
For a long pass of more than 40 meters, it cannot be expected that there will be no error at all, and in order to catch the ball, the third baseman moves two steps away.
When he wanted to go back to third base and touch Kuramochi, Kuramochi was agile like a leopard and suddenly pounced.
"Safety!"
Between the electric light and flint, the wind and clouds suddenly changed.
Qingdao High School scored four bad and hits in a row, forming a good situation with people on first and third base.
No one is out, there are people on first and third base.
At this time, it is the turn of the core line.
It only takes a long fight to turn the current situation, or even the result completely.
"The third stick, catcher, Miyuki Kazuya."
Miyuki is undoubtedly a star figure, and when he has someone on the base, the accuracy of his strikes is always staggering. In that sense, he's also a good four-man candidate.
"Hit, hit, hit all the balls that fly!"
Humming to the tune of the cheerleaders, Miyuki looked very relaxed. Although the pressure on him as the captain is not small, there are all the fielders on guard, and Yang Ping is on the blow. The work he needed to do was shared between Maezono and Kuramochi. In addition to shouting a few slogans when leading the team, his most important task is to train pitchers and study opponents.
He started doing these two things before he became the captain. So the difficulty of acceptance is not very high.
Now I can stand on the hitting zone and play easily because I have Yang Ping, a reliable four-man behind him, who can score and win.
He never doubted for a moment that Qingdao High School would win this game.
Let him get off to a good start with this victory.
"Ping!"
Without hesitation, he clearly aimed at Mukai's pitch.
Baseballs don't fly high, but they don't slow down. The baseball sliced through an arch and flew out of the infield.
"Walked through! Consecutive hits. ”
Kuramoto at third base easily returned to home plate, and Minato also went to third base, but it was Yuyuki who made a fuss. He wanted to go to second base, but when he was close to second base, the fielder suddenly passed the ball.
"Out!"
Out of embarrassment~
Miyuki's face was flushed, he rarely made mistakes, this time he got a little carried away, and he ran over the head in excitement.
Back to the cowshed.
"Beautiful base!"
Sawamura gave his thumbs up at the right time.
"Fuck off!"
Yu Xing slapped his hand away unceremoniously, and turned his head to the coach to plead: "I'm sorry." ”
Coach Kataoka shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with aggressively attacking, and there's nothing wrong with aggressively moving forward to the next base, you're too lax when you run the bases." ”
Miyuki also knew that he was careless, and if he ran with all his strength just now, the chances of hitting base were still not small.
"Yes."
3:3!
Even if he was out, Miyuki's well-timed hit still allowed Seido to catch up with the score gap.
Now that the two teams are back on the same starting line, no, to be precise, the current situation is greatly beneficial to Qingdao. Because their offensive in the sixth game is not over yet.
