Chapter Twenty-Five: Nine Strikeouts

"Safety!"

When Sawamura touched the home plate bag with his hand, the scene fell into an atmosphere of madness.

Even though this short run is far less exciting than a home run. However, the team chemistry and smooth attack rhythm shown by Akagi are still pleasing to the eye.

As a die-hard supporter of Sawamura, a loyal fan of Akagi Middle School, and the brothers of the 'Red Heart Brotherhood', they can see Akagi's progress clearly.

At this time, Akagi has completely become a strong team. Their tactical execution ability has already taken on a bit of a look.

It is said that the team that can make it to the top four in Nagano Prefecture has such a standard, and it is only natural that it has such a standard. But Akagi is different, think about Akagi's performance a year ago, and then look at the present, these are completely two teams.

At this moment, the brothers of the Akagi Brotherhood, under the leadership of Dalin and Kobayashi, were frantically cheering for Akagi.

They blushed one by one, dancing on the court, and didn't care about the sweat that sprinkled on the bodies of their partners.

On the other hand, those who support Great Northern High School have no reaction.

The cheerleading team is not strong, and it is closely related to the performance of the players on the court. For this game alone, the cheerleaders of Great Northern High School did not want to cheer for their team, but they did not see any hope of their team winning at all.

As one of the three kings of Nagano Prefecture, it is inevitable to feel frustrated to say such things, but it is the truth. The two games just now made the students who supported Dabei Middle School realize that it would be difficult for them to win this game.

Although the three kings claim to be neck and neck, there are also upper and lower levels among them. Of course, the most outstanding of the three kings is Tianlongsi Middle School, but they have just won the East Asian Army and the top four in the country.

If nothing else, just with this result, Nagano Metropolitan and Daihoku Junior High School had to retreat.

After all, these two schools represented Nagano Prefecture in the Kanto Convention, but they stopped at the Kanto Convention, and they never made it to the whole country.

Tenryuji was first, second and third, and although the results were similar, it was difficult for Daihoku High School to win Nagano Metropolitan in the head-to-head between the two teams.

In this way, the result is obvious, Dabei Middle School is at the bottom of the three kings.

The money investment is the highest, the most professional coaches are found, and the various training facilities are also the most advanced.

In this case, Daihoku Junior High School is still not a match for Tenryuji Junior High School and Nagano Metropolitan Junior High School, so they naturally have to find a reason.

The reason is actually very simple. If you simply talk about the difference in strength between the players, Dabei Middle School is not necessarily worse than the other two schools. The reason why they couldn't beat Tenryuji Junior High School and Nagano Metropolitan Junior High School was simply because they didn't have a pitcher who could hold the pitch down.

Tenryuji Middle School, the pride of Nagano Prefecture, Haruka Nanami. Nagano Metropolitan High School also has Mari, the fastest pitcher in the prefecture.

Against such pitchers, it's hard for them to score hits, let alone score points. Of course, this is only one reason why they can't beat their opponents. In addition to this reason, there is also an important reason because they don't have this kind of pitcher on their team who can hold the field down.

On the one hand, there is no way to overcome the opponent's pitcher to score points, and on the other hand, his own side can't stop losing points.

How can they play in such a game?

So in the past two years, Daihoku Middle School has developed a heart disease, and every time it fights Nagano Metropolitan Middle School and Tenryuji Middle School, I can't help but tremble.

Now they have found out that it is not just the two schools that they have to fight, they will have such an ominous feeling.

Playing against the up-and-coming Akagi High School baseball team, they also feel the same way.

When attacking, there is no way to completely conquer it, and Eijun Sawamura throws.

When they were on the defensive, their team had no way to stop Akagi Middle School's steady offensive rhythm.

This kind of ominous feeling is too familiar to them, they have already expected the defeat of the game, and naturally they are not in the mood to cheer.

As if to confirm their suspicions, the rest of the game was exactly what they thought. The friends of Akagi Middle School often hit the ball out, and at first, thanks to the solid defense of Daihoku Middle School, they did not lose points. In the bottom half of the fourth inning, Okuchi Hosho scored a hit, and Sawamura sent him back to home plate, extending Akagi's lead to two points in one fell swoop.

At the end of the four innings on the other side, the Great Northern High School player has not scored a single hit from Sawamura so far.

Sawamura was like an iron fence, guarding the track leading to first base, preventing the runners of Daihoku High School from taking a step forward.

"Nine strikeouts!"

In the stands, Feng Xiang and Long Yi both felt an extremely unusual atmosphere. When he first met Sawamura Eijun last year, he was also surprised, he didn't expect to kill such a ruthless character in the air.

At that time, Fengxiang Ryuyi realized that Sawamura Eijun was likely to be the ultimate enemy of their Nagano Metropolitan High School in the next two years. It's just that at that time, he didn't know that Sawamura could evolve to this extent.

At this time, the strength shown by Sawamura is far more than just a big enemy.

Daihoku Middle School, which has the highest strength in Nagano Prefecture, is completely helpless in Nazawa Village. What if they come to Nagano immediately?

With their strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get hits and points from Sawamura's hands!

"You have to find a way to deal with him!"

After the quarter-finals, there is still a full week to go until the semi-finals and finals begin. In this week, it was enough for Feng Xiang Long Yi to come up with a few countermeasures.

With a total score of 2:0, Akagi Middle School led Dabei Middle School by two points and ushered in the fifth game of the game.

In the first half of the fifth inning, Dabei Middle School attacked.

Because Daihoku Junior High School has not won a single hit from Sawamura until now, it is still their fourth batter, Kenen Matsumoto, who has hit the batter.

Seeing Matsumoto Kenen on the field, the melon-eating crowd of Dabei Middle School finally came to a little spirit.

In the past, the reason why Daihoku Junior High School was able to barely compete with Tenryuji Junior High School and Nagano Metropolitan Junior High School was because of Matsumoto Kenen.

It is precisely because of his presence that Daihoku High School is the number one line in Nagano Prefecture.

"Hmph, interesting."

The opponent, who was originally gloomy, suddenly seemed to have come to his senses.

Sawamura on the pitcher's hill is clearly aware of the status of Matsumoto Kenen in Daihoku Middle School.

In the face of such an opponent and such a critical situation, Sawamura was about to cry out with excitement!

The more the other party has expectations for Matsumoto Kenen, the more he wants to knock Matsumoto Kenen into the dust.
