Chapter 7: Opportunity! (Tribute to Xiao Hua)
In the quarterfinals of the Tokyo Spring Tournament, Seido High School played against its old rival, Ichido High School.
For this game, Kataoka supervisor is extremely serious.
At last fall's Tokyo Tournament, it was the city high school junior high school who cut off the road to Seido High School.
If you have revenge, you will not take revenge, and you are not a gentleman!
Now that he has met the third high school of the city university, Kataoka of course wants to take his disciples to avenge the original revenge.
"Don't say anything superfluous, the other party has just returned from the spring armor, and it is the time when the spring breeze is proud. Then let's let them experience the fighting spirit of those of us who failed to make it to Koshien! ”
Before setting off, Kataoka gave instructions to the runners.
"Let's get married, let's do it once."
"Yes!"
The formation nodded, and then the friends of the army all formed a circle.
Yucheng pointed to his chest with his thumb and asked, "Who are we?" ”
"Qingdao!"
All the friends around shouted in unison.
This huge shout directly stunned the first-grade friends.
This Nima is so handsome!
Kanemaru looked at the little friend of the Qingdao First Army in confusion: "I came to Qingdao because I worship this voice." ”
Not only him, Seido hasn't entered Koshien for five years. It can also attract a lot of good seedlings who have achieved results, why?
This team has an indescribable appeal.
Sawamura's face turned gloomy.
At this time, it is false to say that he does not regret it, if he hadn't gotten up late at the beginning, maybe he would be among the people who can shout slogans together.
"Damn!"
While Sawamura secretly blamed himself, the slogans of the First Army continued.
"Who sweats more than anyone else?"
"Qingdao!"
"Who is it that sheds more tears than anyone else?"
"Qingdao!"
"Are you up for the challenge?"
"!!Whoa, who
"With the dignity of the school, we have only one goal: to be number one in the country! Come on! ”
"!!!Whoa, who
The fingers of all the people in the army were pointed at the sky.
As if at this moment, they are the protagonists of the whole world.
"Did you go to the game with you? It is possible to take a bus. ”
In the baseball department, Minister Ota arranged two buses, one for the first army, and the other for the refueling partners. (Look at this local tyrant!) )
Xiaogu didn't want to go, but was stopped by Sawamura.
"Let's go together!"
Well?
Akira looked at Sawamura inexplicably.
"Let's see how cruel this competition area is in Tokyo."
This sentence successfully moved Gu Xiao, and he also followed the bus.
"The Tokyo Spring Contest, the quarterfinals, and the competition between Seido High School and the city's junior high school, have officially begun."
At the beginning of the game, Qingdao attacked.
Akichi hit the first bat, and the first ball was hit by the ball of the city's junior high school, and then he used his unparalleled speed to go to base.
Next, the second baton Kominato cooperated with Kuramachi, allowing Kuramoto to steal the base to second base first, and then Kominato Ryosuke chose four bad bases.
No one is out, there are people on first and second base.
The third bat, Jun Izashaki, hit the infield rebound ball.
Ryosuke Kominato and Kuramochi each advanced a base bag.
At this time, it was the turn of the fourth bat, and the formation hit a beautiful second home run, directly sending Ryosuke Kominato and Kuramochi back to home plate.
Qingdao leads 2:0.
Then the fifth batter hit a hit.
As soon as the game is out, there is someone on third base, and at this time it is the turn of the batter to be the sixth batter.
Entangled a few balls, the number of balls was two good, two bad, and Miyuki was chased.
After chasing Miyuki, the catcher of the third highest level in the city gave Manaka the decisive ball, a slider in the outer corner.
"Ping!"
This ball was guessed by the sinister Miyuki, and he flew directly out of the court.
A three-point home run widened the total score to 5:0!
The audience was jubilant.
Sawamura glanced at Xiao Shitani beside him and said, "See, this is Qingdao's line." ”
"Hmm!"
Akira was a little speechless in shock.
"Even with such a bold line, Seido hasn't entered Koshien for five years. You can imagine what kind of monsters they encountered. If you really want to be able to stand on the pitcher's mound in Qingdao one day, imagine how you'll deal with it when your opponent is them. With your inconsistent fast ball, I'm afraid it won't work. ”
"I'm not going to let anyone hit my ball."
Tsukiya Xiao said firmly.
Sawamura glanced at him and smiled bitterly in his heart, the guy still didn't know how thick the sky was.
High school is an era of strong play, and it is not so easy for a good pitcher to perform well.
In the first game, Qingdao scored a full eight points, turning the first game into a super big game.
It seems that there is no reason why Seido should not win, but the subsequent matches did not develop like this.
Ace Tanba, who has been performing well in this spring tournament, suddenly collapsed in the second game and lost four points in a row. Then he lost another three points in the third game.
Ace Tamba, was substituted.
Substitute Kawakami came on the court, stabilized the situation, and only lost two points, and withstood the luxury line of the city's top three.
In this game, Qingdao scored 13 points, and the senior of the city university scored nine points!
With an eight-point lead in the first game, Qingdao was almost overturned by the city's top three.
"I'll go, it's really hard to win!"
"The opponent's attack is so ferocious, it feels as if it was hard to get rid of the opponent's pursuit."
"The city is the third highest, and it deserves its name."
There was such an exclamation from the surrounding friends.
"The bigger problem is with us. Eight points ahead, still being chased like this? ”
Kominato Harushi looks kind, but when it comes to commenting, it is very strict. Even if the other party is a senior, no strength is no strength.
Qingdao scored thirteen points and played so embarrassed because of the unstable ace pitching.
"Tenba-senpai!"
Sawamura looked at Tamba, who had walked away from the field in a decadent manner, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
With Tanba's character, it's hard to deal with the current situation.
Thinking about it, Sawamura stood up and prepared to leave.
"Are you leaving?"
Xiao Minato asked, and stood up.
Xiaogu didn't say anything, and then stood up.
"By the way, Sawamura-san, you haven't said what you think."
Minato looked at Sawamura curiously.
"I'm worried about the third-grade senior, the pitching is inaccurate, and he will probably be very uncomfortable."
Sawamura sighed.
Xiao Minato looked at Sawamura stupidly, he really didn't expect Sawamura to have such a side. He also thought Sawamura would be the more determined kind of person.
"I'm sorry for Tamba, but for us, this may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
As long as he has the opportunity, Sawamura will never give up that position on the pitcher's mound.
