Chapter Eighty-Eight: Preemptive Strike!
The Tokyo Spring Wild Ball Festival, the last game of the 1/4 finals began.
The two sides of the battle are Seichi High School and Kasuga Ichi High School.
In today's game, Supervisor Kataoka uncharacteristically sent all of them on the bench. Everyone on the scene, including the players of the Qingdao High School baseball team, was confused.
is completely different from Seichi High School, which is completely stupid, and the morale of Kasuga Ichigo is high.
They were already ready to accept tyranny, but they didn't expect to usher in such an opportunity.
Although they think that it is still difficult to beat Seido High School, it is not that they are not confident to beat Seido High School's substitutes, mainly because the main selection players of Seido High School will not sit in the rest area all the time.
If the situation of the match is very unfavorable, these regular players will definitely play one after another.
But that doesn't matter.
At the very least, their game will be very easy at the beginning, and they may even suppress Qingdao High School on the field.
Suppress the king Qingdao in the situation.
Just thinking about this is very exciting.
It's so exciting!
With Seido High School completing the Koshien streak in the summer and spring, their terrifying prowess has been widely recognized in its entirety.
Not to mention the baseball team that can defeat Qingdao High School, even if the teams that can suppress Qingdao High School in the whole country, they are very rare, very few.
Under such circumstances, they have such an opportunity, of course, they should not miss it.
In this way, when you go to college in the future, you can also brag to your friends around you.
Do you know that Seido High School? It is the most legendary generation, the one who has entered Koshien in a row and dominated the country twice.
"Yes!"
"I think Lao Tzu also played against them at the beginning, and he played a lot of scores......"
Thinking about it like this, I'm a little excited.
With such a relaxed mentality, the players of Kasuga Ichigo were particularly motivated. Even when he shouted the slogan at the beginning, it was louder than the shouting on the Qingdao side.
The game began, and Seido High School attacked first.
This time, Qingdao High School's first starter is Wang Xi!
If it is not the substitute players who are on the field now, but the previous starting lineup, then Wang Xi's baton will improve fast enough.
Of course, even at this time, Wang Xi was able to take over the heavy responsibility of the first baton, which also showed that Superintendent Kataoka trusted his striking strength.
After standing in the strike zone, Wang Xi opened his stance at the beginning, and he was ambitious to hit the ball out.
At this moment, the players of Kasuga Ichigao also noticed Wang Xi. They won't be like Wenjing University before, they don't have any defenses against Wang Xi at all.
They had already detected Wang Xi's identity and knew a lot of information about him. The most important point is that they found through the study of the game video that Wang Xi's striking strength is very strong even among the players selected by the Qingdao High School baseball team.
"Don't look at the other party is only a mere first grade, but the strength is definitely not bad. Be very careful! ”
Pitcher mound position.
Kasuga's ace pitcher, after receiving the code from his partner, nodded very dryly.
Although none of the players selected by Seido High School did not play, they were all substitutes who had been on the bench before. But even so, Kasuga's pitcher has never underestimated the plans of these opponents in front of him.
Anyway, the opponent is also Qingdao High School, King Qingdao High School.
The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.
Not to mention that these people in front of them are not emaciated camels, it is only because the players selected by Qingdao High School are too strong that they are reduced to substitutes.
There is no way for anyone to guess what the specific strength is. But just by using your toenails, you know that the strength of the other party will definitely not be bad.
"But I'm not going to throw in the towel!"
Although he knew that the opponent's strength would definitely not be bad, the ace pitcher of Kasuga Ichigao had no intention of backing down.
In the three years of high school, he worked hard step by step. He has a very strong self-confidence in his own strength.
"Whoosh!"
The small white ball was like a dazzling white light, which instantly crossed a distance of 18 meters and appeared in the trapper's glove.
"Smack!"
"Good shot!"
On the first ball, Wang Xi did not swing the bat.
Watanabe had already helped collect a lot of information, so if he chose a certain way, he could shoot the first ball.
But this kind of rhythm is not suitable for Wang Xi.
No matter how detailed the information he gathers, he prefers to rely on his own eyes to confirm the opponent's pitch and strength.
"It's so slow!"
After seeing the pitching of the Kasuga high ace pitcher, Wang Xi muttered two words from his mouth.
The sound of these two words was very soft, and it happened to be heard by the catcher who was squatting in the catcher's position.
He glanced at Wang Xi unhappily.
Although I know very well in my heart that the other party is not an easy person. But the catcher of Kasuga, who is high, still can't help but be angry.
They are jealous, but in the end, Wang Xi is just a first-year freshman.
What's there to do?
Since the other party looks down on us so much, let him see what high school pitching is.
Thinking of this, the catcher subconsciously played the code of the decisive goal.
According to his previous logic of matching, there seems to be nothing wrong with the deciding ball at this time.
Since the opponent did not swing the bat on the first ball, in order not to let his own ball count fall behind, resulting in a situation of being chased.
The next ball, which is the second ball. The probability of Wang Xi swinging the stick is very high!
At this time, if you can let him swing the bat, it will miss. It will definitely interfere with his selection rhythm.
Come on!
Seeing the code given to him by the catcher, the Kasuga Ichi high ace on the pitcher's mound.
He nodded slightly.
He, like his partner, has a bad feeling.
At this time, it should be fought back cleanly.
"Walk you!"
The baseball in his hand was like a weapon, and it was thrown by Kasuga Ichitaka's ace pitcher.
At this moment, he pressed all the strength of his body on the small ball.
Strike zone.
Wang Xi's eyes flashed with a hint of sharpness. In his mind, he remembered the information that Watanabe had released to them before.
"The opponent's ace pitcher's deciding ball is a slippery ball in the inside corner!"
The ball is very sharp, and with the change, it often catches the opponent off guard.
And the probability of the deciding ball is very high, and it is clear that the pitcher is very confident in his ball......
Come on, it's now.
Staring at the flying baseball without blinking, Wang Xi's heart was full of passion.
The little white ball, exactly as he had expected in his mind, slid inward as it approached.
Good!
shouted a good word in his heart, Wang Xi unceremoniously waved the bat in his hand at the flying white ball.
"Ping!"
The white ball was hit, drew a near-perfect arc and fell behind the third baseman.
Wang Xi waved his fist excitedly, then spread the bat in his hand and ran forward desperately.
By the time Kasuga's outfielder picked up the ball and passed it back, Wang Xi had already reached second base safely.
"Safety!"
Without any doubt, Wang Xi scored a clean second base.
Combined with his performance in these two games, this guy is dazzling like a luminous body.
People can't help but look at him.
"This guy's main position, I'm afraid it's going to be stable!"
In the rest area of Seido High School.
Sawamura Eisan crossed Jiro's legs and muttered.
The few people next to him didn't say a word.
They actually have exactly the same feelings as Sawamura Eijun.
That is Wang Xi's main position, I'm afraid it's really stable.
His pitching skills have not yet been fully seen, and they are not clear.
But this guy's striking strength is something everyone has seen.
I can lead the Treasure Island baseball team and dominate the players of the same age group in the world.
Wang Xi is still the fourth baseman in that team......
In this world, powerful players may not be very famous, but the players who are really famous undoubtedly have very strong strength.
The current high school, the Great Demon King Sawamura, Tokyo Prince Narumiya Naru, Hokkaido Monster Hongo......
Which of these players with great fame is not a monster?
Wang Xi is naturally one of them.
Of course, that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that there is a lack of strong beatings in Seido High School now.
And Wang Xi is undoubtedly a very good addition.
The game continues.
Seeing that Wang Xi won the second base long shot beautifully, Superintendent Kataoka in the rest area immediately gave a code.
Then hit the second stick of the small flathead Kijima, and used a short shot.
"Ping!"
After the white ball was touched, Kijima ran to first base as fast as he could.
Although his short position is not bad, and his speed is not slow.
But Kasuga's fielder didn't give it for nothing, and he sent the ball to first base early before he managed to run to first base.
"Smack!"
"Out!"
Although Kijima was very regrettably out, the strategy of Seido High School was achieved.
Wang Xi ran to third base very leisurely.
Immediately after that, standing in the strike zone was Yamaguchi.
"Ping..."
He didn't choose to play a short shot like Kijima, but swung the ball out with all his might.
The small white ball was hit to the big rear of the outfield.
If it weren't for the outfielder's early retreat, it wouldn't have been too late to stop the ball at all.
Of course, there is no problem with the words now.
"Smack!"
"Out !!"
Although Yamaguchi was also out, Seido High School's attack did not stop.
Yamaguchi knocked the ball out, almost 90 meters away.
Even if Wang Xi used it, he almost walked back.
"Safety!"
Wang Xi took the lead to return to home plate and helped Qingdao High School win the first point.
The aggregate score became 1:0.
In the stands.
Fujio, a senior reporter for Bangqiu Kingdom Magazine, shook his head with emotion.
"The more you come off the bench, the more you show the character of this team! This is the characteristic of Qingdao High School. ”
Play steadily and never miss a chance to score.
It looks like this situation, even if it is against the substitute lineup of Seido High School.
It's hard to win.
