"Huh"

"Smack"

"Bad Ball"

"Soul light, don't you swing a stick? This bunch of guys!? ”

It's another sharp curveball, but there is a slight deviation in the ball control, and it deviates from the good ball belt, but, such a ball way, in the first two innings, these freshmen are basically able to swing the bat, however, the current situation is that no matter what kind of bait, these guys, just don't make a stick, so that Ikeda at home plate is very helpless, and he directly doubts whether this group of freshmen is directly aiming for a straight ball.

What Ikeda didn't know was that his guess was the truth, and he didn't know that Shoji Tsurugasa in the strike zone was already drenched in a cold sweat, and that the curved ball just now, the sharp striker, was simply a sharp arc against his cheek.

Let Tsumigasa Shoji subconsciously swing the stick.

Luckily, he had Miyuki's command in mind.

Just keep your eyes on the straight ball.

All change balls are discarded.

In Miyuki's words, what can be done, can be done, and what can't be done, but no matter how hard you try, what you can't do is what you can't do.

That being the case.

It's better to simply give up and do what you can better.

"Baseball, sometimes, is a sport that needs to be abandoned!"

Miyuki said with a smile.

"Huh"

"Huh"

"Not good!! The ball is on the high side. ”

"Pong!!"

Because I care, because I am impatient.

Tanba threw a straight ball that was high in the center that should not have been thrown at this time, and Shoji Tsurigasa perfectly captured the trajectory of the ball.

A crisp sound rang out at the moment.

"Whoosh"

The shadow of the ball that sped out.

"Bang"

A small ball that slammed into the ground.

With everyone's surprised expressions, he passed through the guard of the seniors in the inner field and jumped to the position in front of the left field.

"Dadada"

"Safe base!!"

First hit since the opening game.

Eight bats, third baseman, Shoji Tsukasa, successfully stepped on the first base.

"Oh oh oh oh oh!?"

The crowd outside the stadium shouted at the same time.

"First hitter for freshman team, first baseman !!"

"It's a pretty blow."

"It's not so much that the freshmen are playing well, it's more that Tanba is lax, right? Can you throw a straight ball like that? Is this still the main pitcher of the first army, the next ace!? ”

"Oh, that's why I said that...

"Our Qingdao will never be short of strong hits, and freshmen are so good at seizing opportunities, alas, it's this pitcher formation...

After the instant noisy chatter of the surrounding spectators reached the stadium, the face of the senior Damba on the pitcher's mound turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Actually, I was knocked out and beaten.

Tanba's senior couldn't help but clench his right hand into a fist.

"Damn!!"

Especially when he saw the figure of Superintendent Kataoka behind the home plate, he was obviously covered by a mask, and there was a distance of nearly twenty meters, but Tanba could feel the cold breath coming from the direction of Superintendent Kataoka, and it seemed that he could see Superintendent Kataoka's indifferent expression, which made Tanba's senior can't help but tremble in his heart.

Silent pressure from the team's head coach.

Tenba-senpai bit his lip tightly, and a look of unease appeared in his pupils.

There is Inoue Senpai on it.

There's Shigerano Shin underneath.

Tamba, who is sandwiched in the middle, is actually the most stressful player in the current first-army lineup.

Once he loses the trust of Superintendent Kataoka, who no longer recognizes his strength as a pitcher, then he will definitely be eliminated from the lineup.

This is for Tamba, who is interested in the next ace pitcher.

It is absolutely unacceptable.

"Be sure to show a performance that the supervisor can approve of!!"

This is Tanba's decision!!

"Nine sticks, catcher, Miyuki-kun."

It's all about crushing the expressions of the beaters behind, Tanba senior.

Miyuki Ni glanced at the expression of the pitcher Tamba senior on the hill, and smiled, and came with a malicious smile on his face.

At the time when I saw Miyuki's side smile.

Kuramori, who was on the bench, felt a chill hit him in the depths of his heart.

Shigerino shook his head a little helplessly.

As the two people who are most familiar with Yuyuki at Aoichi High School at present.

Miyuki's smile represents a latent meaning

Shigeno and Kuramochi know too well.

The straight body, the confident smile on the face that stood on the strike zone, as if it was a mismatch, the moment Miyuki's posture fell into the eyes of Tanba's seniors, it was very successful in provoking the anger in the hearts of Tanba's seniors.

"Just a first-grade ghost, don't get too carried away."

Tanba-senpai gritted his teeth, and his eyes stared viciously at Miyuki in the strike zone.

That rather unpleasant mood.

Just by looking at that expression, you can fully understand.

Although Miyuki doesn't understand why Tanba's predecessors treat him so specially, for Miyuki, he is the best at capturing fighters.

From this atmosphere, I smelled an extremely rare opportunity.

An opportunity to break through the defensive line of the senior team.

A metal bat that dances gently.

The sound of wind pressure in the air.

A figure standing quietly on the strike zone.

“playball！！”

"First ball, straight ball high in the outside corner."

Ikeda's fingers moved lightly underneath.

On the pitcher's mound, Tamba's senior suddenly stepped on his pace, his arms shaking vigorously.

"Whoosh"

Suddenly waved down.

A bright light rushed out from here.

As the sharp Polar Shadow pressed in the direction of home plate.

Miyuki in the strike zone, his pupils suddenly froze, and the beating ball light was quickly captured by Miyuki's corresponding trajectory and leaned forward slightly.

The low center of gravity, the bat that danced suddenly.

"Huh"

"Pong!!"

In Ikeda's somewhat surprised expression.

The ball and the metal bat slammed into each other hard, and there was a sonic boom.

"Huh"

The trajectory of the ball that is ejected.

In the direction of third base, the pupils of the third-year Tanaka seniors shrank, and he quickly pounced to catch the ball.

"Bang"

The ball flew over the sleeve of Principal Tanaka.

Slammed into the ground.

In the eyes of all the people.

The ball will miss a line and catapult beyond the boundary line.

"Out-of-bounds!!"

"Oooh oh!?"

At the moment when the linesman's voice sounded.

The audience around them let out a cry of surprise.

At home plate, Ikeda looked at Miyuki's pupils beside him with an extremely vague look of jealousy, and as a catcher, Ikeda could feel Miyuki's excellence more clearly than others, not only as a catcher himself.

It is the kind of excellence that can drive the team in other aspects.

Especially the blow just now.

This made Ikeda clearly aware of Miyuki's acumen in capturing fighter planes.

Just a little bit of luck, that just shot is likely to fly to the outfield, and that kind of blow will bring a fatal blow to the senior team.

Ikeda is well aware.

As long as you can suppress Miyuki here.

The threat of the first-year team is out of the question.

This game is no longer the beginning of the game, what they think is the confrontation of the abuse of vegetables, and now if they still can't bring up 100% attention to deal with these juniors, the hardships they have suffered will become even more.

"Tanbo, control your temperament, now is not the time for you to show your majesty, the overseer is watching from behind!!"

As a third-year senior, even if he is only in the ranks of the second army, the majesty of being a senior is still enough to make Tanba's heart awe-inspiring.

Especially the last hint of meaning in Ikeda's eyes.

Plus the moment when Tanba looked up and Superintendent Kataoka's eyes collided.

It made Tambo's heart tighten for a while.

Tanba took a deep breath and calmed his emotions a little.
