Chapter 60: Cracking (Part 1)
Sogetsu passed the ball to Nobu Nakagawa on first base, the position was slightly off, and Shin Nakagawa opened his gloves to catch the ball.
"Smack!"
The baseball goes into the glove, but Ashin doesn't catch it, and the baseball bounces out of his glove. Waiting for Ashin to pick up the ball and then run back to first base, at this time, the six bats of Tenryu Temple had already run to first base in advance.
From the strike zone to the first base, it is only more than 20 meters. Any mistake in the defense is fatal at this time.
"Safety!"
Before the referee's voice on first base had completely fallen, he saw the six bats of Tianryu Temple and ran to second base non-stop. This really scared the referee on first base, he has been a referee for many years, and this is the first time he has seen a runner who barely gets to first base dare to run to second base.
Wait a minute, it seems like it's really fine. The strange garrison adopted by Akagi Middle School completely gave up second base. With no one to defend second base, the runner can of course keep running.
"Safety!"
Two outs, two on second base.
At this time, the supporters of the Red Heart Brotherhood in the stands were depressed to death.
They really didn't expect that Akagi Middle School would make a mistake in guarding at this time, which was a pity.
"Could it be that the goddess of victory is on vacation today? Otherwise, why are we Akagi so unlucky? ”
"Her aunt is here, let's take care of it."
"I haven't lost points yet, what are you talking about."
……
At the same time, the bald army, which had been solved by Sawamura four or five times in a row before, and was a little dull, suddenly came to the spirit at this time.
"Tenryuji, Tenryuji !!"
They shouted the name of the team over and over again, hoping to convey their strength to the players on the field.
"We're in the top eight! I won't lose to a small team that doesn't know where it came from. ”
"The royal road! Tenryuji Temple!!! ”
Thousands of bald heads, shouting in unison, it looks like an underworld gang gathered together, which is still very scary.
On the pitcher's hill, Sawamura's face was cold and terrifying. He had vaguely understood the plan of the old man of Tianlong Temple, Yamano Hiromitsu. I have to say that this old guy has really vicious eyes.
Sawamura has channeled all the firepower to himself as much as possible. The old guy still saw through Akagi's flaws at a glance.
In the cowshed of Tenryuji Temple.
Assistant coach Xiao Mu threw himself to his own head coach who already admired the five-body cast. The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. He was different from those viewers, he was keenly aware of the problems that had just arisen at Akagi Middle School.
From the position of Cangyue to first base, it was only more than twenty meters, not even twenty-five. Passing and receiving the ball at this distance is the basis of baseball. Even if the average team can't do it, the team that reaches the semi-finals of the regional competition can't make such a low-level mistake. At the very least, they can also pass and catch the ball with a bounce!
But it was such a passing and receiving that the player from Akagi just now made two mistakes.
The first one was Cangyue's pass, which was a full two meters off. This forced Nobu Nakagawa to leave first base in order to receive the ball. The second is Shin Nakagawa's catch, the ball he stayed in place can still be received, and once he catches the ball while moving, there is a mistake.
From these two superficial phenomena, it is not difficult to draw conclusions.
That is, the basic skills of Akagi Middle School are not solid enough, and their training is not thorough enough.
In fact, they have known about this for a long time, but they forgot about it unconsciously during the game, which is really strange.
"Mr. Yamano, how do you see that?"
If you don't understand, you have to ask, as a good student, Xiaomu is still very humble.
The old man said with a smile: "People often subconsciously focus their eyes on gorgeous things, thus ignoring some key details. It's like Akagi, you've been addicted to it because their pitchers have been performing tightrope walking. Magical float ball, superb straight ball, and then also limit yourself to the outside corner of the ball to decide the winner. The pitcher puts so many restrictions on himself, you think, can't I win with him like this? ”
In fact, you really can't win, you can only sink into each other's exquisite skills.
"Seeing the other person's unparalleled tightrope walking skills, you are all thinking about how to increase the shaking of the tightrope so that the tightrope walker can fall. But in fact, it ignores that people who pull tightropes are more likely to have problems than those who walk tightropes. Although their work is simpler, if it is unstable, no matter how well the tightrope walker walks, he will not be able to fly. ”
The old man said confidently: "We have won this game!" ”
"Ping!"
After the sixth bat, the seventh batter at Tenryuji Middle School used the same short shot, and after the ball was hit, it bounced quickly. Cangyue didn't have time to take it, so she could only hope for the cool wind as a guerrilla.
"Look at me!"
Although Feng Liang usually speaks softly, he behaves very manly at this time, and after he picks up the ball, he sends it to first base.
This time, the straight-line distance is longer than before.
Ashin, who had just missed the ball, had not recovered at this time when he saw the baseball flying again.
"I ......"
His body, subconsciously reacted, and took the ball very beautifully.
It's just that after receiving the ball, his mind went blank for a moment, and he kind of forgot what he was going to do next.
What's next?
I remember that Xiao Rong once told him that it was best to catch the ball with his feet on the base bag, so that the runner would go straight out. If it's too late, determine the runner's location and decide whether to hit him directly or return to the base.
At this time, the batter was already close to him, and it would definitely be too late to return to the base.
"Watch me kill you!"
Nakagawa Shin hurriedly used his gloves to touch the beaters who ran over.
The runner of Tenryu Temple seemed to be a little surprised, he didn't expect Nakagawa, who had just made a mistake, to react so quickly. It's not good, but it's already a little bit of a look.
It's just that it's still too tender!
The runners of Tenryuji Temple, facing the gloves that swept over, pounced directly and used the sliding base.
Nobu Nakagawa watched the runner disappear from his eyes, wondering in his heart, what about people?
"Safety!"
The referee on first base also applauded this wonderful matchup, so he shouted very loudly.
Shin Nakagawa looked at the runner on the first base bag in shock, how did he disappear just now?
From the perspective of the audience, no matter how ordinary the sliding base, when facing off on the field, there is a different perception.
"Pass it back!"
Just when Zhongchuan was stunned, he suddenly heard Feng Xiang's anxious shout.
Pass home plate, why?
Nakagawa didn't understand, but he still passed the ball back to Feng Xiang, and then he saw a scene that he would never forget.
In the position of home plate, the original sixth batter of Tenryu Temple has pounced on the base plate bag.
