Chapter 45: The Clash of the Giants (Part 2)
In the first round of the Kanto Conference, Nishitokyo Seido High School played Kanagawa Yokohama Kohoku Gaku.
The giants are fighting each other!
Although there are no weak people at the Kanto Conference, such a strong collision still makes the people who eat melons very excited.
The audience came quite a bit, sitting in half of the stands.
Since the tournament was held in a place other than Tokyo, there was no way for the school's cheerleaders and students to cheer together. Only the little friends of the Second Army and the Third Army came.
At the beginning of the game between the two sides, the main force was sent.
"This left fielder's name is so familiar, like I've heard it somewhere."
The overseer of Yokohama took the advance list of Qingdao and looked at the name on it in a daze.
1st grade, Eijun Sawamura.
He seems to have an impression of this name, and he has heard it said.
"Forget it, if you want to come to a first-year, you can't make any big waves."
Throwing the list aside, the overseer of Yokohama stared at the disciples in front of him seriously and said, "Think about the training you have received in Minato Yokohama over the years, and enjoy the competition." ”
"Yes!"
In the first half of the first game, Yokohama Minato Kita College attacked first.
On the other side, in the cowshed where Seido High School is located.
Kataoka looked at his disciples and said, "Ino is not fast with the ball, and he is a pitcher who fights by controlling the ball. There are three types of balls, straight, slide and longitudinal. ”
'With his possession of the ball, his change of ball is very difficult to play. From the first round, aim for a straight ball to attack. ”
"Yes!"
All the friends of Qingdao have high morale.
"It's up to you when you're on guard, Miyuki."
After arranging the tactics of the attack, Kataoka handed over the garrison to Miyuki.
"Yes!"
Miyuki nodded solemnly.
The game begins.
The first batter of Yokohama Kohoku Junior High School went to the strike zone.
In the face of this opponent, Miyuki decisively gave Tanba a code.
On the pitcher's mound, Tambo nodded slightly.
"Whoosh!"
The first ball, a curved ball with a high drop.
In the face of this ball, even Yokohama's hitter had no way to swing the bat.
"Smack!"
"Good shot!"
After a good shot, Miyuki paired Tanba with a bad ball from the inside corner.
The Yokohama hitter, who had just been taken aback by Tamba's curveball, did not back down. Instead, towards this ball, he swung his bat.
The swing missed, and the ball went straight into Miyuki's open glove.
"Good shot!"
After two good shots, Miyuki played the third goal.
This ball, the Yokohama hitter who had been chased could only swing the bat, and the swing missed.
Miyuki is paired with a straight ball that deviates from the good ball zone.
Three balls and three strikeouts!
Tamba, who doesn't look very strong, is like a different person when he pitches.
After striking out the first strikeout, Tanba lured Yokohama's second batter and the ball flew to the shortstop's defensive position.
"Hee-ha-ha~"
Like a cheetah-like figure, he suddenly kills, picks up the ball, and passes to first base.
"Out!"
Without any mud and water, Qingdao won two outs.
At this point, no matter who looks at it, Tanba's pitching is very good. Sharp changes, calm ball control, and that unique pitcher's bearing.
"Although Qingdao has always given the impression that the pitcher is not strong, to be honest, Tanba's pitching is really good."
"Anyway, he's also the ace of Qingdao now!"
"Tamba, come on!"
"Qingdao, Qingdao!!"
The discussion in the stands came and went.
On the court, Seido ushered in the third batter of Yokohama Minatokita, the shortstop, Oyama.
Oyama looked coldly at Tanba on the pitcher's mound, as if he was going to eat him alive.
Such a cold momentum, not only Tanba, but even Miyuki in the catcher position felt it. After feeling it, a sneer appeared on the corner of Miyuki's mouth.
Just right, let's see what kind of strength Yokohama's core line has.
Senior Tanba, next ball, throw ......
"Whoosh!"
On this side, he threw the ball unceremoniously, and on the other side, Oyama did not hesitate at all, and swung the stick directly.
"Ping!"
After the white ball is hit, it lands in the center of the shortstop and second baseman.
Seeing that the ball was about to fly to the outfield, a sturdy figure jumped up and pounced on the baseball that was about to fly out.
"Hee-ha, Senior Ryosuke, pass it to me."
Minato who stopped the ball, it was too late. Kurachi in the guerrilla position took the initiative to clear the siege.
"Smack!"
Ryosuke Kominato did not hesitate and threw the ball directly to Kurachi, who passed the ball to the first base.
"Out!"
Three up, three down!
Although there is a credit to the defense, Tanba's own pitching is really good, and to a certain extent, it suppresses Yokohama's line.
Three outs, offense and defense exchanged.
In the second half of the first game, Qingdao High School attacked.
"First bat, shortstop, Kuramochi-san!"
"Hee-hee-ha-ha~"
With a strange laugh, Kuramochi stepped into the strike zone.
Come on, come on.
Kuramori's little eyes were full of provocation.
Yokohama's pitcher is Ino, who looks mediocre, and you can't feel the strength of this man just from his pitching. Unlike Akira and Sawamura, as long as they throw a ball with all their might, it is enough to shock the whole court.
But such a pitcher is the trump card of the wealthy Yokohama Minato, and of course he will not be as useless as everyone thinks.
He has enough weapons to threaten his opponents and even take them out.
In the face of such a pitcher, standing on the strike zone and fighting against others honestly is not Kuramochi's character.
Therefore, on the first ball, Kuramochi chose to play short.
As soon as he struck a short pose, he saw the third baseman in Kokohoku running forward.
The other party was prepared!
Faced with this situation, Kuramochi was not annoyed, and immediately turned the bat and touched the ball in the direction of first base. Yi Neng's pitching, whether it is the speed of the ball or the power of the ball, is very average, and he can still decide the direction of the shot.
"Ping!"
The baseball hits the ground and rolls down to first base.
Like a mad dog on the reins, Kuramochi galloped to first base.
The first baseman in Minato Yokohoku was ready to rush out to save the ball, and their second baseman consciously moved to first base when he saw Kuramochi's short hit. At this time, I got to the first base early.
The warehouse is fast, but it's not as fast as the ball, and the second baseman of Yokohama Minato is the village (with the same name as the little angel.,In order to distinguish him, he deliberately changed the word.。 When you get to second base, you get a pass from the first baseman.
"Out!"
The position was held by a fraction of a millimeter and failed to reach the base.
After Kuramochi was out, Ryosuke Kominato came up, and Yokohama's pitcher Ino threw directly into the center.
This is tantamount to blatant bullying!
The other party obviously studied the information of these beaters in Qingdao very thoroughly, and knew what kind of methods to use to deal with these beaters.
