Kikuta, who was just full of confidence, was completely broken.

At the beginning of the third game, he was still full of confidence and wanted to challenge the strong baseball team of Seido High School.

Although he had conceded three points before, he had always believed that it was only because he was not familiar with the game, especially against the Seido High School baseball team.

Isn't he familiar with it in the second game, and won three outs, so that the hitters of the Qingdao High School baseball team have three up and three down.

At that time, the supporters of the pharmacist high school baseball team cheered for him excitedly.

Kikuta was fascinated by this feeling.

He no longer wants to give up this position to anyone.

In this game, his original plan was to show his characteristics and let the superintendent see his strength.

Nao Kikuta is convinced that as long as his own performance is good enough, even the overseer will not easily replace him.

Unless, he doesn't want to win this game.

Kikuta's self-confidence is bursting and her condition is excellent.

However, all of this, after he finished the duel with Ryosuke Kominato, completely changed.

Suddenly, he realized that it was all different from what he had thought. The opponent, who was not very tall, was able to accurately touch all his balls and fly them out of bounds.

And in the rest area of Qingdao, everyone is also taken for granted. It seems that Ryosuke Kominato has that kind of performance.,It's normal.。

And this is also the one that hits Kikuta the most.

After settling with more than a dozen balls, not to mention how shocked he was in his heart. The number of his pitches alone has climbed to a very frightening level.

Normally, with Nao Kikuta's physical strength, he has no problem throwing more than 100 balls in a game.

Of course, the specific number of pitches depends on the strength of the opponent. If the opponent puts enough pressure on him, then the total number of pitches he throws will inevitably be reduced.

Seido High School Baseball Team!

Although it was only the third game, Kikuta was already starting to feel tired. Not only did he lose two points in the first two games, but he also threw nearly forty shots.

Each of those guys is extraordinary.

Now, in order to deal with Ryosuke Kominato, he has thrown more than a dozen balls one after another.

The total number of pitches may add up to less than sixty, which is not much. But the rhythm was too dense, and after throwing more than a dozen balls in a row, he could vaguely hear the wail from his shoulder.

The number of balls thrown in a game is separated.

In one game, it was thrown one after another.

These are two very different concepts.

Not only physical strength, but also in the process of constantly fighting with Ryosuke Kominato, Kikuta's originally inflated confidence was also hit hard.

That monster could touch every ball he threw with precision.

You must know that Ryosuke Kominato, in the entire Seido High School baseball team, is not the strongest hitter, not even the most troublesome.

The Seido High School baseball team, the real representative of the hitters, is still the third baseman Zhang Han and the fourth baseman Tetsuya Yuki of their team.

That is, Kikuta's next opponent.

Looking at Zhang Han who walked into the strike zone, Kikuta's mind kept recalling the home run he was beaten out.

He originally thought that he had overcome his fear of Zhang Han and that he could regroup and fight against Zhang Han this time.

But after the blow just now, Kikuta suddenly realized that it was just his own illusion before.

He can't even solve the second baseball team of Seido High School, that Kominato Ryosuke whose abilities are completely restrained by himself in all aspects.

Can Zhang Han still be solved?

Asking himself, Nao Kikuta suddenly sadly found that he had no confidence at all. He didn't think he really had that strength to deal with the monster in front of him.

Although Zhang Han was not aggressive, he just stood there very ordinarily and looked at him calmly.

Jutian felt a strong threat from Zhang Han's body. Behind him, it was as if there was a powerful devil.

As long as you dare to throw the ball, the baseball will definitely be knocked off the court.

This concept is deeply ingrained in Kikuta's mind.

So much so that when he was playing against Zhang Han, he subconsciously threw a bad ball.

"Whoosh!"

When he saw the baseball flying, Zhang Han originally wanted to make a move.

The other party has been completely broken by Ryosuke Kominato's senior. The whole person's pitching is completely out of shape.

In the case that the game has not yet been contested, Zhang Han will never show mercy to his opponent.

The worse the opponent is, the less he can give the opponent a chance.

Unexpectedly, the guy collapsed on his own.

The ball was thrown before it hit home plate and bounced off the ground.

It bounced all the way into the gloves of the catchers of the pharmacist high school baseball team.

Although Zhang Han made up his mind to swing the bat, it was impossible for him to shoot such an obvious bad ball.

I have a premonition that the opponent's pitch will kowtow and dig into the ground. Zhang Han didn't even have the interest to move, he just stood there honestly, watching the baseball pass.

The catcher of the pharmacist high school baseball team, although surprised that his partner is not in good shape. But after seeing Zhang Han's reaction, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Nothing happens at all!

What does this mean?

This shows that the other party has completely seen through them.

People were surprised by Zhang Han's terrifying striking strength, but they didn't know that his vision for choosing the ball was also first-class.

If they continue like this, even if they don't hit a home run, their situation may not be much better.

The catcher turned his head and glanced in the direction of the rest area.

Boom Raizo had already stood up, and he turned to Sanada behind him and said.

"Looks like you're going to play early!"

"I can't wait!"

Sanada's fighting spirit is high.

Playing against monsters like the Seido High School baseball team, Sanada couldn't restrain his desire to play as long as he thought of the fierce battle scene.

If it weren't for the supervisor, he would have even wanted to start this game.

"Of course, the trump card must be kept until the end!"

Bang Lei Zang patted Sanada trustingly, and turned his head to announce the replacement.

"Yakushi High School baseball team changed pitchers, Kikuta went to the outfield, and Sanada Toshihei went to pitcher hills."

Seeing the substitution of the Yakushi High School baseball team, the fans in the stands talked about it. There are many people who became obsessed with Pharmacist High School after watching the pharmacist and Daocheng Industrial competition before.

Of course, they know what Sanada Toshihei means to this team?

To put it bluntly, don't look at Sanada wearing the No. 11 uniform, but he is the real ace of the Yakushi High School baseball team.

Now that the pharmacist high school baseball team has sent him on the field, it means that the pharmacist high school baseball team is going to be real.

Looking at the current posture, they have given up everything and played this game with all their might.

"I thought that if the pharmacist could win the seed place, he would be satisfied. I didn't expect them to fight so hard in today's game! ”

"They're not like a team that's going to give up the game. I think as long as it's a game, they'll do whatever it takes to win. ”

This is the impression that the Yakushi High School baseball team has left on others.

Changed to other unknown teams, and was led 3:1 by the Qingdao High School baseball team, the opponent could basically announce his surrender.

But no fan who has watched the Yakushi High School baseball team game has ever thought so.

Although they are now two points behind the Seido High School baseball team, there is still a lot of expectation for them.

Sanada plays.

He took the baseball from Kikuta's hand.

Although Kikuta was beaten badly, it was difficult for him to break his fingers when he was about to let go of the baseball.

He seems to be very unwilling!

"Senior!"

Sanada shouted.

Kikuta kept hearing this salutation, so he reluctantly let go of his hand and handed the baseball in his hand to Sanada.

"Don't be careless, their beaters are strong!"

When Nao Kikuta said this, he was sincere.

After the lesson just now, he felt more truly how powerful the blow of the Qingdao High School baseball team was?

This is something that ordinary people can't think of, or even dare not think of!

Although Kikuta was unwilling, he was indeed cowardly when he faced Zhang Han just now.

Whether he himself wants to admit it or not? These are facts that cannot be changed. If it weren't for his cowardice, he wouldn't have thrown out to dig the earth just now.

So much so that the supervisor did not hesitate to substitute for the game.

At that time, the overseer was probably extremely disappointed.

After all, it was a player he had high hopes for, but in the end, he only threw such a result.

Sanada looked at the gray face and walked towards Kikuta in the field.

I was very touched in my heart.

Senior Kikuta, who has never liked to communicate with others, suddenly felt so much emotion.

He's probably really realized what a terrible battlefield Pitchermound, right?

On this battlefield, there will always be some powerful and incomparable enemies who will emerge from the corner of the wall.

You have to be on your guard at all times and be ready to give these guys the harshest possible counterattacks.

"The first time I felt it, senior, I've felt it many times!"

Before Thunder Zang joined Yakushi, Sanada, a first-year student, was heavily used by the team and got a lot of opportunities to pitch.

In the process, he also met all kinds of beaters. Even in ordinary schools, there are occasionally monsters with extraordinary strength.

Not to mention the Qingdao High School baseball team, which is a giant team composed of aces and four basemen from various schools.

Qingdao doesn't appear occasionally, it's a terrifying guy whose strength is comparable to a monster appears every moment.

The difficulties that need to be faced against such a team, especially standing in the position of a pitcher, are even more unimaginable.

Originally, it was okay for Kikuta to be fearless, but once he realized what kind of opponent he was fighting, it was only natural that he would back down.

However, you are not the same!

Sanada, who was standing on the pitcher's mound, exuded a different aura throughout his body.

This man, who looked very sven in private, immediately turned into the most ferocious beast as soon as he stood on the pitcher's mound.

"One by one, solve them!"

He stretched out his index finger and instructed his teammates to return to their respective positions.

Just this guy standing on the pitcher's mound has made a big difference to the pharmacist high school baseball team.

"Sanada-senpai!"

"Junping, it's up to you!"

"There's nothing to be afraid of, the other party is just like you, just a sophomore."

Even the voices of their contestants were much louder than usual.

Xiao Minato on first base and Zhang Han in the strike zone both clearly felt the changes in the baseball team of Yakushi High School.

How exactly would you describe this change? They couldn't think of the right words for a while.

But one thing is certain, that is, from now on, their opponent, the pharmacist high school baseball team, can be regarded as their last piece of territory.

They're really going to go all out!

In the rest area of the Seido High School baseball team, Superintendent Kataoka put on a wait-and-see posture.

So quickly, they forced out the real trump card of the pharmacist.

Regardless of the final outcome of this strike, their strategic purpose has been achieved. And the news that should be found has also been verified.

Sanada didn't play at the start, not because of an injury.

If he gets injured, Sanada won't be able to play. Now that he is still playing, it means that he is not staying in the rest area because of an injury.

If it's not an injury, it must be physical strength!

It was because he was worried that Sanada's pitcher's physical strength would be exhausted, so he let other pitchers delay the number of innings at the beginning.

So.

Although I can't think of a short-term solution to Sanada, I can already start planning a long-term strategy to deal with him.

After the game is over, the tactics are set up.

Superintendent Kataoka had an idea in mind.

It's just that his idea has nothing to do with the current showdown.

The pharmacist is replaced, and the trump card appears.

Looking at the series of operations of the pharmacist high school baseball team, Zhang Han can roughly guess what they want to do at this time?

The pharmacist doesn't plan to continue losing points!

The purpose of sending Sanada on the field is nothing more than to solve him and Yuuki.

The abacus is good, and the superintendent of Thunder Zang really trusts Sanada.

Is it that easy, though?

You don't want to lose points without losing points, and there's no such good deal on the baseball field.

Without waiting for Zhang Han to start acting, Ryosuke Kominato had already put on a posture of actively stealing the base.

Because he was too far away from the first base, Sanada couldn't just watch it, so he could only pitch and contain it.

As for Ryosuke Kominato, as soon as the opponent throws the ball, he returns to first base.

Don't look at Ryosuke Kominato's stature, and the overall speed of running is not fast. But Ryosuke Kominato's movements are very agile.

It's simply unrealistic to try to tackle him with a ball in a pinning motion.

After Sanada used two containments, he could only reluctantly give up this tempting idea in the end, as long as Ryosuke Kominato didn't leave too far, he was ready to pitch first.

Although he made up his mind in his heart, Sanada Toshihei's attention was inevitably distracted.

He had to devote some of his attention to Ryosuke Kominato, who was ready to steal the base at any time.

Zhang Han, as a beater, discovered this flaw almost immediately.

Sanada, who had just come on the field, was caught up in some of the attention of the runners, and occasionally he was stunned.

When pitching, there is no way to concentrate.

It's working!

I didn't expect the operation of senior Ryosuke Kominato, which really played a role.

In this way, what will the opponent throw? It's easier to guess.

Because of the need to balance the relationship between runners, Sanada simply did not have a way to use a ball with a large angle change. After all, as long as you use the change ball, you may not have time to solve Ryosuke Kominato.

When the time comes, he will steal the base, and the Yakushi High School baseball team may be difficult to stop.

If you can't use a change ball, it will only be a straight ball, or the jet ball they guessed before.

Which one it is? One thing is certain, and that is where the baseball flies, which can be roughly estimated within a range.

Don't underestimate this range to the width of the bat, which can be covered on.

Here it comes!

Seeing that Ryosuke Kominato was not too far away from the base bag, Sanada decisively threw the ball.

His entire pitching action is not much different from Zhang Han's pitching posture.

The body rushes forward as much as possible, and then the arm takes the opportunity to throw out with the help of the inertia of the body moving forward.

In the process, he is tantamount to overwhelming the weight of his whole body, plus the huge inertia, on the two fingertips of the pitch.

Then it bursts out with incredible ball speed.

"Whoosh!"

Just like this ball, the baseball broke through the air barrier one after another and came to Zhang Han's face.

Straight ball!

Inner corner!!

The path of the ball is very clear, and even the changes are clear.

Sanada's pitching is completely opposite to his usual behavior.

He was usually amiable and humble.

It doesn't matter if it's a first-grade junior, a second-grade peer, or a third-grade senior. The impression of him is very good.

He is such an easy-going person with a natural affinity that can mingle with anyone.

But once he pitches on the court, this guy will suddenly become a different person, a completely different existence.

He pitches flamboyantly and domineeringly.

But also dignified!

Now this goal is the best proof of this.

Baseball doesn't deviate from the good ball zone, and even skews towards the center.

Seeing the baseball flying in, Zhang Han opened his pores all over his body at the same time.

It's a good feeling!

Seeing the white ball flying over, Zhang Han didn't let go anymore. He timed the time, gripped the bat tightly with both hands, and hit it hard.

"Whew!"

In the process of Zhang Han swinging the baseball bat, the position of the strike zone seemed to have a phantom of a bat.

The speed at which he swung the stick was so fast that many people didn't see it clearly, and then they heard the sound of "ping-pong".

The little white ball flew out at a faster speed than when it came.

Zhang Han spread the bat in his hand and a hearty smile appeared on his face.

That's a good feeling!!

At the moment when the bat touched the baseball, that wonderful touch made Zhang Han clearly aware of it.

This ball, it should be there!

The white ball flew over a distance of 100 meters and then smashed heavily into the stands in the outfield.

Zhang Han waved his arm excitedly, along first base, second base, third base, and finally ran back to home plate.

"Safety!"

"Safety!!"

Zhang Han scored two home runs to turn the score to 5:1.

The Seido High School baseball team went from leading by two points to leading by four points.

In the stands, some fans playfully asked the reporter around him who likes statistics.

"You just said that our family Zhang Han, how many home runs have you won?"

27 pcs!

No, it's 28 now.

Zhang Han, who only played baseball for a year in high school, has won more than eighty percent of the country's home runs.

Wait for him to be in the third grade, wait for him to graduate.

How many more home runs will he have? How many miracles have been created?
