Chapter 1551: A Little Episode in the Northland
PS: The title of chapter 1550 yesterday was written incorrectly, but if you want to change it, you have to find an editor, it's too troublesome, let's make do with it.
While Shigeno and others are actively preparing for the last special match of the year that is not a regular but comparable to a regular one in their baseball club, it is in the far north of Japan, or it should be said a few days ago.
In the Hokkaido region, the final match of the most intense autumn tournament has been reached.
"Whew!"
"Boom!!"
"Good shot, hitter out!!"
"It's over!!"
Say it's intense.
But none of the spectators who watched the game felt how intense the process was.
Just look at the numbers on the scoreboard.
The values that flash out from time to time in one or two rounds above deal with the zero eggs that are running down there.
Ultimately.
Counted as "8 to 0" in the total score column
It's the best proof of this game.
Just like the Tokyo area, the Hokkaido region, which had a summer tournament atmosphere, was merged into one region in the autumn tournament, and the Hokkaido region won the championship in this autumn tournament!
"It's over! With the debut of the trump card - Masamune Hongo in the eighth game, two innings, six strikeouts, and a perfect block, Jumo Daifumaki High School successfully defeated Hokkai High School, only allowing one hit and one four bads to be bombarded, Jumo Daifumaki High School kept a clean sheet against Hokkai High School, and successfully won the winning championship of the fall tournament, and will represent the highest glory in Hokkaido, participating in the Jingu Tournament in November, and the spring selection tournament for the coming year!! ”
"Sure enough, it's still a giant Mo...
"Tsk, it's really a super situation...
"Although it was a regrettable defeat to Qingdao in the summer, the team built by Superintendent Koda is really strong, and it seems that this Jingu Tournament and next year's Spring Armor are still worth looking forward to."
"I still want to see our Hokkaido team hold that pennant, how many years has it been, can't we always let those teams in the south dominate?"
"It's hard, not only Osaka, but also Tokyo, and some teams in Shikoku are having a hard time coping with it."
"No, no, no! I'm still very confident in Jumo! ”
"That's it! Hongo in summer is still relatively young, and Hongo in autumn is already very mature, I believe that Hongo-kun will never lose too much to His Royal Highness the tyrant! ”
"Speaking of His Highness the Tyrant, it seems that Qingdao lost in the semifinals."
"Huh!? Really fake!? ”
"Well, that's the news that just came."
"Who is it!? Who is it!? Which team won Qingdao!? ”
"I guess it's Inashi, right? It seems that the team that can win Qingdao in Tokyo at the moment has the highest probability of rice realization, right? Other teams? Sangao and Didong? Doesn't it seem like it's enough to choke? ”
"That's right, it's Inami, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Tokyo, Narumi Narumiya, who was famous for Koshien last summer, also kept a clean sheet in the semi-finals."
"? No way? ”
"It's normal, it's normal, after all, the Qingdao line has changed blood, it seems that this year's Qingdao, or next year's Qingdao, will be very sad...
"Tsk, the competition for high school students is really getting more and more interesting now...
"I'm looking forward to the shrine and the tryouts right now...
There are no surprises at all.
Didn't make any waves.
It should even be said that except for the players of Beihai High School who are fighting in the field, no one in the rest of this stadium will think that Beihai High School won this game.
Of course, the result of the clean sheet was somewhat unexpected.
After all, Hokkaido High School is a strong player in Hokkaido, and the Summer Contest is also a representative of the Hokkaido region to participate in the Summer Koshien Tournament.
After the end of the summer, the nine starters of Beihai High School were also retained, and half of them were retained, 18 were selected, and 10 players remained in active service, especially when the ace was still in the second grade.
But in the end, it was still a clean sheet.
Nine rounds of confrontation.
Superintendent Koda fielded three pitchers.
The starting pitcher pitched to the fourth inning, the relay pitcher to the seventh inning, and then the eighth inning was when Masamune Hongo, who was the ace, came into play.
The two games ended perfectly, without the slightest wave, which was straight down with six strikeouts.
The contestants of Jumo High School are celebrating this victory that can be called "tasteless chicken".
As the ace, Hongo Masamune is still the same, and the expression is even more gloomy than that of the Beihai High School players, and those who don't know think that Jumo lost the game.
"Line up!"
"Dadada!"
"Salute!"
"Thank you for the advice!"
Until the time when the team bowed and the players of the two teams returned to their benches to pack their bags, Masamune Hongo still had a tense face.
"Anyway, you won the game, Zhengzong, just control your expression a little, otherwise you will be criticized by the supervisor again."
Just took off the catcher protector, and this final is also the main catcher from the first game to the last - Okashi Renji patted Hongo's shoulder and said helplessly.
As a close friend of Hongo, Okajo knows too well the character of his ace adult, why is it upset? That's not because, in the previous games, Hongo Masamune didn't get a start at all, all of them were relays, and even ended up on the stage, and most importantly, there was no pitching in the semifinals, and today's final was actually only the eighth game?
Referring to Hongo's Masamune's character, how can it be refreshing?
"Humph!"
Okajo Renji's words did not mean to make Hongo Masamune have the slightest emotional restraint, but deliberately looked at the overseer Koda Kozo who was standing at the top with a vicious look, and the cold snort that was obviously uncontrollable.
"Ahh
"I'll go."
"Hongo is coming again?"
"Tsk, get used to it, get used to it..."
The giant players on the bench raised their eyebrows, revealing a special look of helplessness and amusement.
"It's still like that child's temper, if you have been so uncontrollable, I will never choose to let you start, and I will even consider depriving you of your trump card back number, so you are not a qualified trump card at all."
Overseer Koda doesn't seem to know what it means to add fuel to the fire.
The figure that slowly turned around, looking at Hongo Masamune, who could already be said to be angry, Superintendent Koda looked calm and said in a light tone.
"What did you say!?"
That momentary hideous expression.
It looks like it's about to rush over all at once.
"Hongo!"
"Authentic!"
Okashiro, who had been prepared for a long time on the side, and the second-year captain Nishi Hero immediately grabbed Hongo Masamune from the left and right.
"That's why you are not good enough, compared to that Shigerun-kun in Tokyo, you are still 108,000 miles behind."
Superintendent Koda shook his head in disappointment.
Immediately.
The hands that were lying upside down behind him.
"All staff, pack your bags and return to school immediately."
Faintly falling words.
Overseer Koda took the lead and left the bench first.
"Yes, Overseer!!"
"Old man with a faint soul!"
While the other contestants answered in a low voice.
Hongo Masamune looked at the back of the departing Koda Overseer, and the fierce color in his pupils became more and more intense.
"Shigerano Shin! I'm going to go above and beyond him!!! ”
