Eighth bat, left fielder, Van Van ”

Two out, second base someone.

It was a scoring situation that was created with great difficulty.

Under the absolute suppression of Shigerino Shin, he was defeated one by one again, and Narumiya failed to advance the base pack to third base, and the number of outs also reached two, so to speak, in the second half of the eighth inning, the probability of Inagi Industrial High School being able to score became infinitely low again.

Upper line play to center line.

Throughout the game, there was indeed a lot of pressure on Shigero, and there were a few seats, even if it weren't for the fact that the goddess of fate was on Shigero's side, he would have been blasted out and lost points, however, this is limited to those few hitters, and these few in the lower line, except for a certain point, bring a little trouble to Shigero, and at other times, it can only be completely reduced to the background board for Shigerun's wanton play.

"Whew!"

"Huh"

"Pong !!"

"The first ball, the lob with a high outside corner, the hitter forcibly swings the bat!?"

"Bang"

"Out of bounds!!"

Even in the eighth game, Shigeruna still maintains the power of the straight ball with seventy or eighty percent power, and the tail energy, which is not something that these beaters can easily deal with and restrain it, plus the indescribable heaviness that covers the heart, is also aggravating the sense of imbalance between each other, and the rice fighters who are caught in a hard battle.

"It doesn't matter, you can see it clearly, bite the ball first, Fan-sao senior!!"

The Narumi Narumi on the second base pack is unusual, shouting for the support of his predecessors in the strike zone, if he can't continue to play smoothly here, their offensive in this game will be terminated, and the situation that he finally created in the scoring circle is that if it is the end of not scoring a point, this will be an extremely heavy blow to Inami, this will be an extremely heavy blow to Cheng Gong.

To score!

Definitely going to score!!

"Second ball!"

"You want to score, don't you? This trump card, but I don't give it!! ”

"Boom!"

Soaring arms, jumping figures.

Flashing electric light.

In an instant, the moment shines.

"Huh"

The polar shadow that flew straight over quickly approached in front of home plate, and the high-speed refraction of the curved arc.

"Longitudinal slideball!"

Extremely sharp curves.

The moment of the moment.

Van swings his body sideways, and swings his metal bat vigorously.

"Huh"

than over home plate.

The shadow of the ball that burst in.

Overlapping moments.

"Pong!!"

The violent roar, the violent vibration aftertaste, and the light on the palm that seemed to be about to escape.

Van gritted his teeth, and the metal bat was pressed forward with a stiff side.

"Huh"

I want to try my best to suppress the power of the ball and the tail energy.

The ball paused for less than a fraction of a second before flying out in a hurry.

The flickering light and shadow.

Burst out of the infield over the moment.

Shigerno didn't even look back, just turning around and walking down the pitcher's mound.

"Smack"

The shadow of the ball that fell synchronously.

It was caught steadily by Izagi Jun in the middle field.

Cheng Gongming, who was on the second base bag, also pressed his left hand on the brim of his hat and sighed slightly.

"Out!!"

"Three outs, offense and defense exchange!!"

"Oooh! The second ball, the choice of a large angle, high curve refraction of the longitudinal slide, the hitter Fan reacted very quickly to the side of the stick, but it was still difficult to perfectly capture the trajectory of Shigerun-kun's ball, a slightly deviated blow, the middle field in front of the direction of the high flying ball, was steadily caught, won the number of outs, in this game, even if the Dao side pushed the base bag into the scoring circle, Qingdao ace, Shigerno Shin, still did not allow Daocheng Industrial High School to score, three outs, offensive and defensive exchanges! The two teams are about to face off in the final game!! ”

"Isn't it!?"

"How can you fix it, can't you score points!?"

"Hahahaha! Nice pitching, Nice pitching, well done, Shigeruno-kun, Izagi senpai!! ”

"Four-point difference, the last game, can you only kneel and ask for a miracle!?"

"Yo Si! In the last game, there is still a four-point difference, so let's win it directly, Qingdao!! ”

"Shigerun-kun!! Ace Lord. ”

"Final Round!!"

"Victory must be ours, Seido High School!!"

"Inashi! Don't give up, there's still one more game!! ”

"Come on!! Rice fruit! ”

"Now, it's really just the last step...

"Damn!!"

The two sides of the stands, only the last game of the final against the final, that is still maintained at the four-point difference of this final, the lower side of the scoreboard, a series of "0" at this time, is to make everyone in Daocheng Industrial High School heartbroken, a full eight rounds! In the whole eight games, they didn't get any points from the Qingdao ace, such a situation, such a point difference, the fear they felt, the despair they felt, the only remaining flame of hope, just because the players of their own team had not given up, and the attack in the last game could still be the turn of the upper line.

A miracle in the bottom half of the ninth inning!

They hope to be able to replicate it in their own team!

Chase five points in a row!

Directly realize the reversal of the game!!

This is the only sustenance in the depths of their hearts now.

Final Inning!

There are also the last three outs.

Inami is only one last step away from the abyss.

Qingdao High School is also only one step away from the altar.

In the end, the overlord successfully defended his title!?

Or is it a smooth coronation of the king!? (Winner of the Nishitokyo Summer Contest.) ）

"It depends on this last game, whether the goddess of fate will favor Daocheng Industry, and whether a miracle will happen...

Feng Fujifu looked at the players on the benches on both sides, and said in a low voice with a contemplative look on his face.

On the first base side, in the bench of Seido High School.

Shigerino sat on the bench in the back position, put his hands together on the bridge of his nose, closed his eyes and rested, the last game, the last three outs, obviously have already experienced the national competition, the Koshien final stage, but, in today's final, at the moment when he is about to face the last game, Shigero's heart has been violently restless for a long time.

Shigeru knew very well why his emotions came from

It's because of Narumiya Ming, who is standing opposite him.

It's even more because of last year's defeat.

That's where it all comes from.

Defeat is not something that Shigeno has not tried, but the defeat in the final last summer was enough to make Shigerino unforgettable.

Chris's predecessor's lonely back.

The painful look of the predecessors of the Eastern Qing Kingdom.

There are other seniors, and their teammates are crying bitterly.

All of that, even now, is so clear.

The scene of that moment.

The emotions of that moment.

"It's been a year。。。。。"

Shigeno looked into the bench in the direction of third base, and his eyes became extremely deep.

Last year's defeat.

It is not possible to reach the top of the country and wash it away.

Lose!

It's going to be washed away with victory!

Today!

"It's today! Toll! ”

Attack of the ninth inning!

The garrison of the ninth inning.

All of them.

It will all be decided in this final round.

From that moment last year.

Shigerino has been looking forward to today!!

At this moment when the final game is about to be confronted.

Even with a four-point lead, including Kataoka, all the Seido High School players still did not relax at all, not because of anything, but because the name of the opposite team was Inagi Kogyo, which was the dominant team in the Tokyo area in the last five years, and it was also the team that won their Seido High School in last year's summer tournament.

"In the first half of the ninth inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, the seventh stick, the catcher, Miyuki-kun."

The attack in the final game, it is naturally best to be able to add points, but if this goal cannot be achieved, at least it is necessary to further suppress Daocheng Industrial High School mentally and vigorously, so that their team can be more comfortable in the defense of the second half of the game, and sometimes, psychological hints, in this situation, are usually extremely effective means.

Hiromitsu Ochiai sees it very clearly at this point.

"Remember, no matter what the ball is, give it to swing the bat, it's naturally best to hit, it's really not good, just keep aiming for the throw-in to play, especially its straight ball, try to play towards the middle of the position as much as possible, you don't need to care about the height or anything, you have to remember, even if it's out, it must be blocked, to avoid being killed, strikeouts are absolutely unacceptable, understand!?"

This was before the debut.

What Hiromitsu Ochiai explained to his players,

The goal is clear!

It is to use such an offensive rhythm and momentum to put pressure on the players of Daocheng Industrial High School, not against Narumiya, but against other players from Daoshi High School.

As the first hitter, or the team's court brain like the existence of Yu Xing, faster than anyone else, you must know the meaning of your own military Cao coach, the greater the pressure exerted by yourself and others, in the second half of the game, the mental pressure of your own ace in the defense will be smaller, never underestimate, the pressure of the pitcher who appeared in the second half of the ninth inning, not to mention the ace pitcher who pitched the whole game in a row, the pressure and expectations that need to be carried are far beyond everyone can imagine.

As a partner!

Miyuki knows this better.

"So! This game, Naru, you don't want to escape easily!! ”

Miyuki gripped the metal bat in his hand harder and harder, and looked in the direction of the pitcher's mound.

"Shhhh Call... ”

Narumi Gong, who was on the pitcher's mound, also clenched the ball in his palm a little hard, and exhaled a breath of turbidity, and a faint wisp of color flowed through his pupils.

"Escape!? Ichiya, as I said, the victory of this game has not yet been decided!! ”

A never-give-up vow!

What about the four-point difference!?

In this game, this ace will not let you score either, and then, in the second half of the game, I will definitely turn the tables to you to see!!

Cheng Gongming's eyes widened suddenly.

The majestic momentum that swelled up, the terrifying aura that seemed to devour all existence!

“playball！！”

Anyway, it's already the last game, and it doesn't matter if you keep your hands or not.

Whether it is a win.

Still defeated!

In this final, there will be no play-offs.

Bet your own last game.

"Whew!"

Narumiya's arms raised high.

Swing your arm forward.

Shine out of the light and shadow!

"I'm not going to let you get any more points! Any one hits!! ”

Dancing Polar Shadows.

The chill that flew in.

In the extremely solemn moment against the backdrop of the strike zone.

"Huh"

"Boom!"

Staggered shadows.

Straight into the cold light.

"Good shot!!"

This represents the decision of His Royal Highness the Prince of Tokyo!!

Straight balls, finger cross balls, slip balls, variable speed balls.

Just like the thought that came to his mind just now, in the first half of this ninth game, Cheng Gongming was indeed fighting with all his might.

"Huh"

"Huh"

"Pong!!"

"Bang"

Similar thoughts to Seido High School.

Clearly understood.

Even if it is only a little morale increase, it can bring about a different offensive rhythm of the Inami side.

Especially Harada and Narimiya, who were casters.

It will not drag down the Qingdao line, or even knock out the opportunity to hit the hit.

Pitching that leaves no room for error.

"Out of bounds!"

All out posture.

It can be regarded as Yuyuki's psychological preparation for a long time, but it is still difficult to resist Cheng Gong Ming's surging attack like a wave.

It's like holding a lead.

That high-pressure pitch.

"Huh"

"Pong"

"Bang"

"Out of bounds!!"

Continuous strong attacks, Miyuki can only barely cope.

And after the chase.

Harada and Narimiya didn't have any intention of throwing in the bad ball belt, and all chose the trajectory of the ball that was decisive in the good ball belt.

"Whoa!!"

"Huh"

"Pong!!"

"Oops!!"

Soon, he found the gap of Miyuki's strike, and the ball that changed from the outside corner that was thrown quickly was a blow that deviated too much.

"Huh"

The shadow of the ball that is ejected.

"Bang"

Slammed into the ground in front of third base.

He was easily intercepted by third baseman Yoshizawa and quickly passed to first base.

"Smack"

Bi Ji didn't wait for Miyuki to run halfway to the base line.

"Out!!"

Miyuki was easily taken out.

"Oh oh oh, first ball!"

"Nice pitching, Ming!"

“OK，OK，OK！！”

"That's it, don't give them any chance, Ace!!"

Decisive and swift momentum, clean and neat rhythm.

"Whew..."

Yu Xing, who stopped on the advance line, exhaled a breath of turbidity, glanced at Cheng Gongming deeply, shook his head, and walked back in the direction of his own bench.

"Eighth bat, left fielder, Kadoda-kun." (Kominato Haruichi played that game on his behalf, and then the guard changed to Kadoda on the field, and it was impossible for Haruichi to defend the left field.) ）

The first out is counted, and the momentum of Cheng Gong Ming.

The power that erupted with all its might.

Monstrous momentum!

Dominate the audience.

“playball！！”

Just standing on the strike zone, Menda's seniors could feel the powerful power and oppressive power that emanated from Narumiya.

I made up my mind that I wanted to entangle a few more balls to slow down Kadoda's rhythm of Inami.

But he still underestimated the aggressiveness of Daoshi Surrender, or Cheng Gongming's aggressiveness in this final game, the strength of His Royal Highness the Prince, who had become extremely violent and completely assimilated with Shigno, was wantonly.

The senior Kadoda in the strike zone was powerless.

"Huh"

"Smack"

"Good shot!!"

With extreme ball speed, it has become a very difficult choice to follow the ball.

"Huh"

"Huh"

"Pong !!"

In the case of being quickly chased by a straight ball, Menda-senpai is forced to force a shot against any inside ball.

Menda seniors, who were easily suppressed, Narumiya Narumi quickly got the second number of outs.

In the case of two outs, there are people on base.

Kenjiro Hakushu ushered in the ninth baton.

The steady beater, Hakushu-kun, is indeed more resilient than Menda's predecessors, and the stability of the blow is also more than the current stage of Miyuki.

is still helpless Cheng Gong Ming in his current state.

was suppressed to the death.,Forced to the corner of the white state.。

"Whoa!!"

The fourth time the ball flew out of the fingertips.

Skim over the infield.

Straight into the inside corner to come to the moment.

"Boom!!"

Hakushu, who didn't have time to react, could only watch the ball fly into the Harada ball sleeve behind him, and the clear sound of it falling.

"Good shot, hitter out!!"

"Three outs, offense and defense exchange!!"

The impassioned and high-pitched words of the presiding judge sounded.

"Oh oh oh!!"

The bursts of exclamations and cheers in the stands also pushed the atmosphere of this final to the climax!!
