Chapter 31: Don't be crazy, be careful of slapping your face (1st update)

The next opponent of the Seido High School baseball team is Shinko High School, a giant in Kyoto, and there is no doubt about its strength.

"We played practice games before, this time last year, and it was 7-10 and we lost by three points.

Minister Ota shared the previous information.

Judging from the previous newspaper, the Seido High School baseball team has no advantage, and it is even quite dangerous. But from Minister Ota's expression, he didn't see too much worry.

"The other party is very tricky!"

The friends talked a lot.

"At that time, Xiuze's pitching was not yet mature, and Zhang Han and Yu Xing did not join the team."

Minister Ota's face was a little proud.

Despite the game a year ago, they lost quite badly. But now, it's not necessarily who wins or loses.

defeated Daocheng, defeated the third year of the city university, and defeated Baoxian University in the first round, not only the players, but even Minister Ota, the morale was much higher than before.

In this Koshien, there may be teams with strength above them, but it definitely does not include the level of Shinko High School.

At the very least, it is necessary to go to the level of Kiryu Osaka and Saiho High School to stabilize the baseball team of Qingdao High School.

As for the other teams, at most they are on par with Qingdao, and most of them should not be as strong as them.

This kind of cognition made Minister Ota unconsciously arrogant.

"Don't be careless! After all, we haven't played each other for a year, and the strength of the other party has grown to that point now? We don't know. ”

Superintendent Kataoka has always believed that the enemy should not be underestimated.

No matter who the opponent is, they must be 12 percent ready to ensure that the Qingdao High School baseball team goes far.

"Yes!"

Friends, one by one, you are very respectful.

On the day of the race, the sun was shining. The sun in August was unusually scorching, even if the game hadn't started yet, Zhang Han's body was already covered with fine sweat.

He's okay, and a few seniors around him look more embarrassed than him, and some of them already have beads of sweat on their faces.

Competing in such hot weather is a great test of the players' physical strength and endurance.

"In the third round of the Koshien Competition, Seido High School competed against Shinko High School, and it officially began!"

With the announcement of the commentary, the game officially began.

This time it was the Qingdao High School baseball team that attacked first.

The routine is similar to before, but this time it was a bit of an accident, and the first to stand in the strike zone was not the captain of Seido High School, Kakuei Tanaka, who is known as the offensive engine of Seongdo.

Instead, a sophomore was replaced, and he took Tanaka's place.

The player was not tall, he looked like he was about 1.6 meters, his eyes were squinted, and he couldn't see much expression on his face.

"Qingdao High School baseball team, what the hell is this?"

"This is the last game of the group stage, and if you win, you can advance to the top 8, is Qingdao High School crazy?"

The fans in the stands were confused at this time. They really don't understand, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the Qingdao High School baseball team?

Could it be that they have already given up on this game?

It shouldn't be!

Xinguang's strength should not be as good as Qingdao, at least judging from the previous games played by the two teams, Xinguang is not as good as Qingdao.

If you want to give up, it's also a new light, why can't it be Qingdao's turn!

Or did Qingdao look down on Xinguang, so he didn't send the whole main force? This explanation seems slightly more plausible, but there is still no way for people to accept it.

Qingdao is one line stronger than Xinguang, and it is not so much stronger. The two teams went all out to play a game, and the victory and defeat were 46.

The Qingdao High School baseball team accounted for 6 percent, and Xinguang accounted for 4 percent. If Qingdao intends to release water, it is likely that he will take all his advantages, and it will be too late to cry in the end.

They couldn't figure out why Seido High School cut off its arm and replaced Tanaka, one of the core players, with a little guy who looked weak.

"Is he also a high school student?"

On the pitcher mound, Shifang, the pitcher of Shin Kong High School, frowned and muttered.

In fact, that person is not extremely short, in a high school class, there are always a few people about 1.6 meters tall, sitting at the front.

So this size is not so unbearable.

But that's in the class after all, and it's not the same thing as the current situation.

Among baseball players, it's really rare to see someone as big as the one in front of you.

Can he really do it? Didn't the Seido High School baseball team come in to amuse themselves?

Unconsciously, Shifang's eyes were filled with a bit of contempt.

His expression was clearly seen by the man in the strike zone.

"I'm looked down upon!"

Obviously, it was the first time to stand on the stage of Koshien, but there was no nervousness in this man's heart.

He calmly looked at the man on the pitcher's mound, and there was a flash of sharpness in his eyes.

If you are looked down upon by others, you may be furious. But the men in the strike zone didn't see anything at all. He just narrowed his eyes even tighter, narrowing into a slit, and in that slit, he looked at his opponent.

This young man has always believed in trying not to make noise when he can do it.

It doesn't matter who the opponent is, the principle is the same.

And his opponent, that is, the pitcher Shifang in front of him, Shifang is a very famous character. Among the pitchers at the national level, his strength is also among the best. Today's match is also known as a spear and shield clash of spears and shields.

The shield is talking about the man in front of him, a super pitcher who has five variations of the ball.

And on Qingdao's side, the reason why he replaced Tanaka was to deal with the strongest shield.

Here it comes!

"Whew!"

Shifang on the pitcher's mound threw his first ball very chicly.

He has a high level of completion, not only mastering five sharp variations, but also his own ball speed and ball control are also quite good.

"Smack!"

On the first ball, Qingdao didn't swing the bat.

The speed of the ball on the monitor is one hundred and thirty-eight kilometers. This ball speed may not be very fast, but it is definitely enough.

The position of possession was also good, on the edge of the outside corner.

It seems that it is clearly bullying people, bullying Ryosuke Kominato for being short in stature, and it is hard enough to take an outside corner kick.

"That's it!"

"Child, you still want to compete with our ace, go home and drink milk!"

In the stands, supporters of Shin Kong High School laughed very heartily.

From their point of view, Ryosuke Kominato didn't even swing his bat on the ball just now, obviously being scared stupid. In this case, they took the first out, is there any doubt?

No! There is no doubt about it.

In today's game, the victory was destined to be theirs. As for the fact that before the start of the game, most of those media were more optimistic about Qingdao, and that was entirely because they had no eyes.

What is the strongest line? That's because they didn't touch the ten directions, and if they touched the ten directions, the so-called strongest line was just a joke.

The people of Shin Kong High School are very proud.

In the rest area of Qingdao High School, the friends were not very disappointed.

Although it was the first time for the small player to play, they all had great expectations.

They think that as long as the game goes on, then something interesting will happen.

On the contrary, those guys from Shinko High School, who looked down on Ryosuke Minato so much, I don't know if it will hurt when he is slapped in the face?

"Whew!"

"Smack!"

"Good Ball !!"

Two goals in a row, without any bluff, all of them hit the good ball belt.

Ryosuke Kominato, who was in the hitting zone, seemed to be really scared silly, and in the face of these two balls, he didn't swing his bat once. He watched the baseball fly past his eyes, indifferent.

Then, barely any stops, the third ball of the ten sides flew over.
