"Sawamura! Sawamura !! ”

"Akagi, long live !!!"

Sawamura used a crushing posture to win three strikeouts, which directly ignited the atmosphere of the scene to the top. Especially the brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood and the classmates from Akagi Middle School who came to cheer up, one by one looked at Sawamura on the pitcher's hill in admiration.

It seems that as long as he stands on Akagi's pitcher hill, he gives all those who support Akagi a sense of stability.

We won't lose!

Because we have Sawamura, Sawamura Eijun.

On the other side, in the cowshed of Nagano Metropolitan High School.

Fengxiang Long Yi stared at Mari, who had just come back to change gloves, and asked in a low voice, "How do you feel?" ”

"It's so strong!"

Mari's voice was trembling, as a pitcher, he really hadn't served anyone in Nagano Prefecture before except for Nanami Haruka. But I have to say that compared to Sawamura, his pitching is simply rough and unpresentable.

"Huh, have you thrown in the towel?"

Feng Xiang Long Yi asked flatly.

"I ......"

As the team's ace pitcher, Mari certainly knew how to answer. As the saying goes, if you lose, you don't lose the battle, how can you admit it as the ace in the team at this time?

He should have replied with confidence: "I won't lose!" ”

But Mari couldn't say this. The audience's eyes are not blind, and although the opponents are different, the gap between him and Sawamura is still clear at a glance.

When I talked about Mari, the fastest pitcher in Nagano, people would also give him a thumbs up, thinking that he was definitely a very good pitcher! But I'm afraid of everything.,Compared with Sawamura.,I always feel that Mari doesn't seem to be so strong.。

Of course, Mari himself knows this.

"In terms of the strength of the pitcher, we can completely surrender."

Feng Xiang Long Yi said flatly.

Instructor?

Ma Li looked at Feng Xiang Long Yi puzzled, and felt a little uneasy in his heart. Could it be that his hesitant attitude made the coach unhappy.

"I'm glad you have such self-knowledge."

Fengxiang Long Yi looked up at Mari: "It's not bad to have self-knowledge!" However, your opponent is not Sawamura, but Akagi's line. Dealing with Sawamura is our task to play the line. Do you have the confidence to deal with Akagi's line? ”

When he asked this question, Feng Xiang Long Yi's eyes were sharp and scary.

Do you have the confidence to deal with Akagi's line?

As soon as this question came out, the faces of Fengxiang Aoichi and Sawamura kept coming to Mari's mind. I have to admit that both guys are very strong. But if you really treat them as beaters, Mari is really unambiguous.

"Yes! I have!!! ”

"Okay, the opponent's ace pitcher has shown his strength just now, and our side must let the ace fight back. Pitch with the determination to get three strikeouts. ”

"Yes!"

In the first half of the second game, Akagi attacked.

Mari unceremoniously took three up and three down from Akagi's hand, so that Akagi's line stopped at the eighth bat.

His ball speed and the superb defense of Nagano Metropolitan Fielders made Akagi's friends a little powerless.

In the cowshed of Akagi.

Wada watched the game nervously and muttered in a low voice: "The opponent's pitcher is also very fierce!" ”

"Don't worry, ours is fiercer!"

Sano touched his head disappreciatively.

Wada glanced at it, sat on the rest chair, and Sawamura, who didn't say a word, was inexplicably relieved.

It seems that if you were a pitcher, Akagi wouldn't have lost.

Both coaches were confident of victory, but Sawamura, who had high hopes from them, was not as optimistic as they were.

The people of Nagano Metropolitan Co., after falling behind, were devastated by their own pitching. Others didn't say it, he thought that Mari would definitely be affected, but Mari's pitching just now couldn't be seen at all.

On the contrary, Mari's pitching gave Sawamura a faint sense of danger. Of course, it's a feeling, and it's very mysterious to say. In short, Sawamura saw a very dangerous fighting spirit in Mari's ball.

Although Sawamura is only thirteen years old, he is an out-and-out old bird when it comes to playing baseball. He knows very well how difficult it can be for pitchers to show their fighting spirit in their pitches.

Next, it will be difficult to deal with Mari.

"In any case, we have to score one more point in the next blow."

In the second half of the second game, Nagano Metropolitan High School attacked.

Sawamura painted the gourd in the same way, and let the three beaters of Nagano Metropolitan High School go up and down three times.

Except for the fourth baton Tohara who hit the infield and flew high, the five or six bats were all finished with strikeouts.

Sawamura stood in front of them like an invincible demon god.

The game continued and ended with the end of the three-innings.

The score between the two sides was still 1:0, and except for the hits of Okuichi Fengxiang and Sawamura at the beginning, neither side scored hits.

In the first half of the fourth inning, Akagi attacked.

"The third stick, catcher, Fengxiang Aoyi!"

Seeing Feng Xiang standing in the strike zone, the brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood stood up one by one and cheered him on.

"Let's do it again!"

"Completely defeat Nagano Metropolitan Tsuritsu!"

"It's up to you, Vice-Captain!"

……

Feng Xiangao turned his head and glanced at the handsome middle-aged man in the Nagano Metropolitan Cowshed.

"I will!"

I will defeat you with dignity.

On the pitcher mound, Mari's eyes are also high-spirited.

In his mind, he couldn't help but recall what the coach had just said.

"Originally, we wanted to face Feng Xiang head-on, and then see the opportunity to escort Sawamura. If Feng Xiang doesn't hit base, he will face Sawamura head-on. The line of Akagi Middle School is dominated by these two people, and as long as the connection between the two is cut off, Akagi's attack will be half useless. If the blow does not go well, it will definitely affect the garrison of Akagi. As long as their goalkeeping is affected, we can find a chance to score. ”

"Of course, this is what we originally intended, but unfortunately, this set of countermeasures is no longer available. Now we are lagging behind, and the more times like this, the more we cannot back down. Let's face them head-on. I believe in our trump card. ”

I believe in our trump card!

These words made Mari's excited eyes red. He didn't know that their coach trusted him so much.

"I've got to win!"

"Whoosh!"

The small white ball was thrown from Mari's hand like a laser.

In the strike area, Feng Xiang's face was also cold and terrifying, and in the face of this ball, he decisively swung his bat.

"Ping!"

When the bat and baseball collide together, it is like a meteor falling to the ground, which makes people's hearts tremble.

Then the baseball flew out upside down at a faster speed.

At the level of Nagano Metropolitan Note, he didn't have time to react in any way.

"Smack!"

The baseball hits the ground, bounces, and flies to the back of the field.

"Out of bounds!"

If it wasn't out of bounds, it would definitely be a super long shot.

"Whew~"

With a sigh of relief, Feng Xiang Aoyi's face was as cold as a killer.

Tohara in the catcher position and Mari on the pitcher's mound, faintly felt their scalp tingle.
