Chapter 60: The Counterattack of the Nameless Predecessor (Tribute to the Flying Knife)
Rest area at Sybon High School.
Nishijigo looked at the form of the game with a deep groan.
He watched his own bench pitcher and successfully dealt with Chris, who was previously famous.
As the team's overseer, he should have said a few words of encouragement to the substitute pitcher who replaced Yakutsu on the pitcher's mound.
Let's say you're doing a good job, keep it up or whatever.
But now he can't spit out a word of that kind in his mouth.
He was still immersed in the conversation he had had with Akutsu.
Even if he decided to let Akutsu take turns to rest, Xijixiang had his own doubts, and he raised them at that time.
"You know how dangerous it is because if we lose a point, it's going to be very difficult to get it back!"
"Don't worry, I've watched the game between Qingdao High School and Daocheng Industry before, and I know very well that once we lose points in this game, we will not be able to recover."
"Then are you really sure that the substitute can suppress the line of Qingdao High School? In case of an emergency, even if you come back in time, I'm afraid you won't have time to save the day, right? ”
"Don't worry, as long as you do what I say, the next few beaters should be easily resolved!"
Originally, Xisi Township didn't believe this nonsense.
But seeing Chris, who was not weak in striking strength, was solved by the substitute pitcher without much effort, he still couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
Maybe what Akutsu said was right, he really had calculated everything with his clever brain.
As soon as the game is out, no one is on base.
"Eighth batter, right fielder, Hakushu-san."
At this time, Hakushu also stood in the strike zone.
After hitting the zone in the town, Hakushu's body was tightly pressed against the sideline of the good ball belt.
Such a move made Pingyuan in the trapper's position subconsciously move.
"Is this seeing through that our bench pitcher is not as good as Yakutsu's possession before, and wants to completely block our inside corners?"
Baizhou's actions made him so suspicious.
Sometimes I have to admit that these beaters in Qingdao High School are really difficult to deal with. Whoever stands in the strike zone can cause very big problems to the opponent.
Just like this Hakushu who is playing now, this player is not particularly conspicuous among the star players of Seido High School.
But if you underestimate him because of this, I'm afraid you'll be the one who suffers, and his various striking techniques are very comprehensive. Especially when it comes to executing tactics, it's even more handy.
People have to be wary.
After a moment's hesitation, Plains Zero still gave the bench pitcher a code for the inside corner.
Although the bench pitcher's ball control is not as good as that of Akutsu, he has extraordinary courage, even if it is a touch ball, he dares to throw.
Instead of being led by the nose by the other party, it is better to show your strength at this time. If they can scare Baizhou, that's the best, even if they can't scare, they have nothing to lose.
Seeing the code given to him by Ping Yuan Zero, the substitute pitcher did not hesitate and threw the ball directly.
The average pitcher is especially afraid to throw a touch ball at this time!
It's not that they're afraid of smashing the ball on their opponents, but the main thing is that once they throw the ball, the Seido High School players will definitely hit base.
It is very dangerous to let Qingdao High School continue to play the line, and they are not willing to accept such an outcome.
In this case, the fact that the substitute pitcher at Seabon High School dared to throw an inside corner shows that he was sure.
"Whoosh!"
The little white ball was almost rubbing Hakushu's clothes, flying into the trapper's gloves.
"Smack!"
"Good shot!"
In the position of the catcher, Ping Yuan Zero looked at the motionless Baizhou and gritted his teeth secretly.
What a horrible guy!
In the face of their incisive inside corners, they were able to do without flinching. Should I say that I deserve to be a hitter of Qingdao High School?
After the opponent did not back down, Plains Zero was not ambiguous and continued to let the pitcher attack the inside corner.
He knew one thing very well, it was impossible to win the competition against Qingdao High School without taking the slightest risk.
Now Akutsu has been moved to first base and rotated to rest.
If they don't show strong enough, or if they are a little weak, they will definitely be chased and beaten by Qingdao High School.
If it really makes Qingdao High School's line break out, then they can also raise their hands and surrender. The side that loses points first in this game will be at a huge disadvantage, and once the score is opened, then there will be no way back.
At this time, it is good to pull the Posa and roll around, and Qingdao High School must not be allowed to take advantage of it.
"Whoosh!"
The second ball was thrown into the inside corner, and the white pillar, which was originally standing with a good ball belt, suddenly stepped out in one step, completely pulling the whole striking stance away, and the whole person seemed to be squatting sideways against the pitcher.
This inside corner, which was originally attached to his clothes, suddenly became a good ball in the middle for him.
"Ping!"
In such an awkward position, Hakushu's swing is very smooth.
He hit the ball very cleanly, and then spread his bat and ran to first base.
"Beautiful!"
In the rest area of Seido High School, Sawamura couldn't help but admire.
I have to say that Senior Baizhou is indeed a genius, and his intuition is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
It's just that he was always decent when he hit before, and it was the first time that he had a sudden change like this.
Koshien is really a magical place, and it is not only the captain who has grown up, but also the senior Ryosuke Kominato, as well as the previously unknown Hakushu.
Sawamura even has a feeling that when the third-year seniors graduate, Hakushu seniors may be able to be directly promoted to the core line.
His current blow is amazing even for Sawamura.
It's just that the first ball doesn't land well, and the baseball lands in front of the shortstop's side.
The shortstop from West Bun High School pounced sideways, successfully holding the ball under him, and by the time he got up to pass the ball, he barely had time to stop Hakushu from getting to base.
Hakushu ran desperately, and baseball came back.
It looks like it's possible to come first or last of both.
Just as Hakushu stepped on the base bag, the white ball also flew up the first base.
A lineman with a face, and his face is a little ugly. He may be a little overwhelmed and don't know who will ...... first
That's when something very amazing happened.
Akutsu, who received the ball on first base, suddenly flew out of his glove to catch the ball.
It felt like he didn't catch the ball.
"Safety!"
The first baseman misses the ball, so there's no doubt about it.
Hakushu safely got on the base.
One person out, one person on first base!
It was at this time that Seido High School finally scored its second hit.
It was Kenjiro Hakushu who won the hit.
