In the summer Koshien 1/4 finals, Nishitokyo Seido High School played against Kotaka High School in Nagano Prefecture.

At the end of the fourth inning, the score was 2:0 and Seido High School was in the lead.

In the first half of the fifth inning, Xinglong University attacked.

In the rest area of Xinglong High School.

Feng Xiang Long Yi looked at Nanami Yao seriously, and after looking at it for a few seconds, his face relaxed.

"It's up to you, Four!"

"Good!"

Some people are overwhelmed when they are under pressure, while others perform better when they are under pressure.

Haruka Nanami falls into the latter category.

Ace and four sticks, such an identity brings only motivation to Nanami Haruka.

Walking up to the strike zone and looking at the pitcher on the pitcher's hill, Nanami Haruka's mouth was shattered.

"The deviation value is really high!"

Originally, they only locked their opponent on Sawamura Eijun, and once Sawamura Eijun played, he would not be replaced quickly. The reason is very simple, Xinglong University is sure not to let Qingdao High School pull away the scores.

As long as the score can't be pulled, Sawamura Eijun can't play easily.

Just like now, if the pitcher mound was Sawamura, Seido High School's lead score wouldn't have expanded much. If the score is 2:0, Superintendent Kataoka really doesn't dare to take the liberty of replacing Sawamura Eijun.

But they miscalculated one thing, that is, Qingdao High School dared to let the bench pitcher take the lead in the quarterfinals.

As a result, Xinglong University was caught off guard!

They didn't even do any scouting of the backup pitchers at Seido High School. Of course, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that this pitcher on the bench of Seido High School is somewhat surprisingly powerful.

"I can't let you continue to be arrogant like this, if you want to win, you must pull Sawamura Eijun off the field as soon as possible."

Nanami Haruka glanced up at Sawamura in the field.

Sawamura, who was dozens of meters away, seemed to feel Nanami Haruka's gaze, and gave him a big smile.

The current situation, for Xinglong University, is developing in the worst direction.

If they can't get rid of Tanba as soon as possible, the people at Xinglong University will definitely think that they can't even deal with the pitchers on the bench, let alone the real ace Sawamura Eijun.

Such a thought is very dangerous.

It's easy to destroy the confidence of the players.

In order to avoid this from happening, Haruka Nanami must also behave.

The bat in his hand was raised, his eyes stared at the pitcher's mound without blinking, and his stride was very standard, neither forward nor backward, neither left nor right.

A calm temperament erupted from Nanami Haruka's body.

In the position of the catcher, Chris glanced at Nanami Haruka cautiously, and then gave Tanba Koichiro a code.

"You should feel it, this beater in front of you is different from the opponent we met before."

Well!

On the pitcher's mound, Tambo nodded.

"Go all out and get rid of him!"

First Ball: Finger Fork Ball!

Since learning to finger the fork ball, this new variation of the straight ball has replaced Koichiro Tanba's previous high-drop curveball as his new tiebreaker.

And Chris gave Koichiro Tanba a code, the first goal was the decisive goal.

Faced with this extremely challenging code, there was little hesitation, and Koichiro Tanba nodded.

He believes in Chris's matching, and he believes in it.

As long as he can do Chris's request and throw the ball, he will definitely be able to deal with the hitter in the strike zone.

And it doesn't matter who the beater is, it's the same!

The leg raised high fell down sharply, and at the same time, the baseball in his hand roared out.

"Whoosh!"

The small white ball, like a sharp arrow, suddenly appeared above the home plate.

In the strike zone, Nanami Haruka looked at the ball flying in front of him and didn't swing his bat.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

Haruka Nanami's reaction was a bit unexpected by Chris. Judging from the feeling that Haruka Nanami gave people before, it seems that no matter what kind of ball Koichiro Tanba throws, he will definitely swing the bat.

But just now, Nanami Haruka didn't make any moves......

Even if Chris has the ability to see through people's hearts, he can't read minds, and his so-called seeing through opponents needs to judge the opponent's intentions according to his opponent's movements and small habits.

But Nanami Haruka, whether it is standing or moving, does not make any moves at all.

In this way, even Chris would not be able to get more information from these things.

He now has only two pieces of information.

The first point is that the strike strategy originally developed by Xinglong University should be aimed at the sweet straight balls that occasionally appear in Tanba.

The second point is that what Nanami Haruka is aiming at may not be referring to the fork ball.

From these two points alone, to guess Nanami Haruka's strike strategy, the information is incomplete.

He needs more information!

With a plan in mind, Chris gave a code to Koichiro Tanba on the pitcher's mound.

With a high-drop curveball, it doesn't matter if you throw a bad ball, it's important to force the hitter to take action.

On the pitcher's mound, Tambo nodded.

Then he took a stride and threw the baseball in his hand.

"Whoosh!"

Small white balls whizzed out.

This goal is very sharp in the eyes of others. The baseball flew straight towards Nanami in a daze!

The onlookers couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat.

And in the strike zone, in the eyes of Nanami Haruka, the previous picture has a different feeling.

In his eyes, Koichiro Tanba's pitching was as if the picture of a movie had suddenly slowed down.

Even the baseball he threw was incredibly slow.

It's slow, it's really slow!

So slow that he could clearly see the spin of the baseball.

It's a magical feeling, every change in baseball is like a frozen film.

Here it comes!

Finally, the small white ball, which was extremely slow, flew over.

And then fall!

Move from the inner corner to the outer corner, and fall from top to bottom.

It's like a naughty child who draws a line diagonally.

If you want to stop this, you have to find the intersection of the swing and the diagonal line.

It's not difficult for Haruka Nanami, who is now in slow motion in front of her.

"Buzz!"

A low swing of the stick swept through everything around it.

The picture returns to normal.

The small white ball, which fell at high speed, was hit hard and swept away.

"Ping!"

Accompanied by a crisp and pleasant crashing sound.

The little white ball was hit, then flew high and eventually sped all the way off the pitch.

"Whoop Woo Ao Woo Woo Ao !!!"

In the stands of Koshien, all the spectators were boiling, whether they were originally supporting Seido High School or Xinglong High School.

They were all excited.

How can Koshien be without a home run?

From the very beginning of the game, they were looking forward to this moment, but they didn't expect it to come so suddenly.

Fortunately, it's not too late!

The score is 2:1!
