The white baseball, spinning and gradually approaching the home plate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Catcher Arimura sensed the ball path and moved his gloves to the inside corner, getting ready.
In the right batter's hitting area, in the face of this inside corner high ball, the hitter actually took a step back, taking advantage of this step backwards, the hitter's body shifted about 5 degrees towards his right hand side, his right arm tightly clamped his armpit, and his left arm guided the bat to swing out!
"Bang!" The ball was "swept" by the bat and hit the ball!
Arimura saw everything clearly through his square-rimmed glasses: the ball core was hit! Sikashi ...... Yada! When the hitter hits the ball, the swing has been severely "squeezed" and deformed! It can only be a flying ball!
The baseball was "carried" out by the bat, over the pitcher's mound - pitcher Matsui was hunched over, head down, hands on his lap, gasping for air.
Shortstop Captain Tomosawa had returned to second base, and second baseman Uraga looked up to observe the height and "course" of the flying ball, and at the same time moved his feet step by step - with the morning sun, the ball flew really high, and the brilliant spring sun somewhat affected the observation of the ground guard.
The ball still flew over the head of second baseman Uraga and looked ...... It's to fly beyond the pasture line, it's to fly to the left of the center......
"Hardcore!" Arimura stood up, raised his hand and shouted a reminder.
Rest area on the third base side.
Hiroya Imai also saw the situation on the field, he took off the baseball cap on his head, and he finally held back when he wanted to say something......
"West Horse Step! This height ...... This speed...... Alas! Hoshino Jun on the side stomped his foot angrily.
Imai straightened up, waved his arms, and motioned for the players on the base to continue running.
"Ni-chan ......" Hoshino's voice was a little dejected.
"Ah Jun, playing baseball, at any time, in any situation, you must have hope in your heart, don't carry despair with you, of course, if you can leave despair to your opponent, then it is the best......" Imai turned to his cousin and comforted.
"Before the bagpipes go off (there is a tradition of blowing the bagpipes at the opening and closing points in Tokyo), do your part." Imai put on his baseball cap properly.
In Hoshino's eyes, his cousin Hiroshi Imai showed a sense of relief in his expression when he spoke: "This is the basic etiquette of the court!" ”
First base side rest area.
"Ahh If you catch the ball, you win! "Minister Sister.
Your Excellency, are you issuing a declaration of victory? That's a bit of a bad character, right?
"Hmmm╭(╯^╰)╮Hmph! If I can catch a ball well...... "Witch overseer."
"Yada! Yada! Mitsunachi's Hayase Weisha was clapping with the game record book in his hand: "This outfield high fly ball is easy to catch!" ”
A late spring wind blew, ruffling Hayase's long hair, blowing the flags in the stadium stands, and there was a crackling sound around them.
It's windy!
Outside the grass line of Diamond Field, the stalwart was ready, facing the direction of the ball in the air, blocking the sun with his right hand and his glove open with his left hand, waiting for the baseball to throw itself into the net.
"Huh?" Tachimi discovers that the baseball in the air seems to have suddenly turned into a UFO...... When it was about to hit the ground, the "XCOM" changed the trajectory of its flight.
The immediate opinion that wanted to urgently move the garrison position, but his feet did not explain clearly, and his feet were knotted, and as a result, "Poof! Suddenly, Tatsumi fell behind him and sat on the grass of the court!
West Horse Step! Immediately saw a secret scream, and he hurriedly supported the ground with one hand while sitting on the ground, wanting to quickly get up to save the crisis.
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps behind Tachimi.
Has anyone made up for it?
It's the left fielder!
How this ball is depends on Yuto's performance!
"Let me come!" Youdou, who sprinted at full speed to make up for the defense, shouted!
Youdou's eyes were blazing, and the three eyes on the sports glasses loomed: I was actually struck by three today! It's unreasonable! It's self-defeating! I've been aiming at this ball for a long time! I'm going to get this ball! I'm sure I'll get this ball!
On the first base, the witch's expression was calm, but a foul word actually broke out in her mouth: "Eight Ga pinch!" ”
"Overseer?" Hayase questioned.
"Youdou rushed too hard! Seeing that the missing ball was an accident, Yuto shouldn't risk catching it, he just needs to fill in the position and wait for the ball to hit the ground before picking it up......" said the witch.
"Yuto-kun rushed so fast, if even he missed this ball......" Hayase asked weakly.
"If the situation is as you say, our stalwart and left field will be undefended...... This gives the opponent too much time to spare! If you lose one point, you lose two points! "The Minister of the Imperial Sister analyzed for Hayase.
"Uh-huh! Youdou's outfield guarding experience is still too shallow...... It still needs to be practiced! The witch overseer's teeth flashed.
"......" Hayase quickly shrunk his neck.
Yuto can't worry about his future fate at this time, he is now busy "throwing" his body into the air!
Yuto stretched his body completely in the air, desperately straightening his arms......
The eyes of the audience are focused on Youdou's wholehearted pounce!
The runner on third base stepped onto the base bag and stood outside the home plate circle to watch the results.
"Be sure to catch it!" Manuchi family Hayase folded hands - a girl's prayer?
"Can't get it! Can't get it! The head of Kyotou Imai on the other side stood up straight.
"Wrestling! Wrestle! Hoshino's eyes widened beside the head of the sect.
The reality is that the baseball is about to slip away in front of Yuto's outstretched glove!
"You can't just give up!" (☆_☆) Yudou flew in the air and straightened his waist, and in this way he got a strange force that jumped forward.
"I got it!" Wearing gloves, Yuto also felt the subtle touch transmitted from his fingers.
"But I can only touch it......"
"Poof!" The baseball still landed on the grass in front of Yuto and bounced off......
"Poof!" The sound of Yuto's body hitting the ground.
An amazing thing happened, Yudou who jumped to save the ball and fell to the ground, a salted fish turned over and jumped up again like lightning!
"I'm coming!" As if he knew where the ball was, Yuto jumped up and chased after the flying ball as soon as he could!
While Yuto was doing all this, the others hadn't reacted yet.
Youdou caught up with the ball in three steps! He caught the ball directly with his free left hand!
With the force of bending over and throwing his arm to pick up the ball, Youdou got up + turned around!
"Pass second base!" There is a village to make a hint!
"Pass second base!" Uraga, the second baseman, crouched down near the grass line (flashed out of the pass lane) and the relay delivered the cue.
Shortstop Tomosawa spread his gloves on the second base bag......
On the first base, the witch overseer saw through everything: "Youdou this guy! He's going to pass home plate! ”
"Uh...... Distances of more than 40 meters...... This is a 'laser shoulder'! Youdou-kun, does he have this ability to pass long? "Minister Royal Sister is not sure.
"daddy!" That's what Hayase said in the mouth of the Manuchi family, but she actually had the following thought in her heart - it's over!
"Give it to me!" Yuto took a big step in the direction of his right hand, and then waved his left arm!
Second baseman Uraga and shortstop Tomozawa saw only a flash of white light.
Pitcher Matsui was still panting with his head down, so he didn't see a white object hit the ground in front of him, bouncing up and flying towards home plate!
That object flew into the trapper Arimura's glove! Arimura stepped on home plate and received the ball!
Arimura turns around with the ball and kills! The runner on second base slides sideways towards home plate!
The referee opens his arms! Stretch your palms out!
“Safe!”
