Hayata's fifth bat, Ariga is actually not so eager to launch a strike skit. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although he is a player who is known for his mobility, he can be placed in the center of the line, and his striking strength is not inferior.

Now the runner is on the score lap, the first base is empty, and he doesn't have to worry about the danger of double killing.

The pitcher Yabe's first ball, Ariga let it go.

He's going to make a decision when he's on the ball.

This ball is a bad ball, not a bad ball code made by Li Yuanrang. Rather, Yabe was a bit overkill and over-depressed the baseball.

So Li Yuanrang took advantage of the situation and still matched the second ball in a similar position.

This time the ball went into the good zone, and the hitter didn't swing the bat.

Aria's strike took place afterward. The number of balls at that time was two good and two bad.

At this time, the inner field defense of the Peace School Park has been a little wary of hitting the ball.

After two good balls, if you hit out of bounds, the hitter will go straight out.

So it's a bit surprising that a runner is on second base and sneaks up on a short shot after two good shots.

The baseball is pointed in the direction of the third baseman.

The distance is somewhat unsuitable for catchers to rush out and pick up the ball.

The last to get the baseball was Kawasaki, the third baseman who advanced in time.

"Pass the first base!"

Lee Wonrang saw that Saito, a runner on second base, had almost reached third base.

It is unlikely that Kawasaki will walk back on his own to stop Saito from base, and it is safer to kill the batter who runs to first base first.

The baseball arrived less than 0.1 second before Ariga hit base.

By this time, Saito had bypassed the third base pack and headed for home plate.

First baseman Masaoka caught a glimpse of the scene with his spare eyes. So he passed the ball straight back to home plate.

Players who throw the ball with their left hand and receive the ball with their right hand do not need to adjust their direction at all in this situation, and they are very comfortable receiving and passing.

That's why only the first baseman is a left-hand pitcher in the infielder's position.

Li Yuanrang received the baseball and first made preparations to touch and kill the runner.

Saito turned around and ran to third base.

Li Yuanrang was about to pass to third base, but after estimating the passing time, he still didn't let the ball go.

The hitter Ariga struck himself out and his teammates pushed forward.

It's a successful strike sacrificial hit.

However, when Ariga initiated this tactic, he must have wanted to be able to get to base safely, or take advantage of the chaos to score a point.

For the defender's Peace Academy, at least they haven't conceded points yet, and it's not the worst situation.

But the crisis is not over.

Now it's just a one-way out.

It was the shooter's turn to hit the sixth batter.

It's nothing.

The point is that now runner Saito has gone to third base.

As long as the bat's bat touches the ball, there are many ways to score points.

But which one will the opponent choose?

Li Yuanrang looked at the small room beside him.

As a right-handed pitcher, Komu is right-handed and left-handed.

However, in terms of the striking sequence, it is clear that his left-hand ability is not just used to balance the muscle imbalance of the perennial right-handed pitch.

Komuro is a first-year student. It was only this autumn that he became a staple in the team.

Information on pitching is scarce, and information about his strikes is scarce.

Li Yuanrang can only try to "judge people by their appearance".

Although he is not very tall, this is a pitcher with a pitching speed of nearly 140 kilometers.

There is no doubt about the strength of the arm muscles, it must be above average.

And it is ranked in this position of the line. It also shows the strength of its strike.

Matsumoto, the overseer of Hayata, was a veteran commander. He has been coaching the team for many years.

However, in any case, the new trend of line sequencing in recent years is unlikely to affect this point.

According to the popularity of recent years, the sixth stick is becoming more and more important. It is even considered to be the best chance of scoring a lap after the fourth base.

It's not just statistically that supports this view. The current situation on the field has indeed confirmed this theory.

"Let's assume it's a medium-range gun."

In this case, a mid-distance player may be looking to play the ball to the outfield.

It's good to be able to hit the ground and hit a hit, otherwise the outfielder will get caught and the runner will have enough time to get back to base.

You can't give this kind of hitter a chance to hit a high flying ball.

But then again, Yabe, the current pitcher, wasn't originally the type of pitcher who made the flying ball.

Lee Wonrang concentrated the ball in the bottom half of the good ball zone.

The problem is that Yabe's possession is not stable in this area.

The number of balls came to one good and two bad.

In the next ball, Li Yuanrang played a code, asking Yabe to throw it into the good ball area as much as possible.

The ball is a straight ball that is relatively easy to control.

The hitter's cubo swung his bat at the good ball that was used to steal the ball.

This is rolling the earth.

Be in front of the pitcher.

However, the center of gravity of the pitcher's body has been deflected after the pitcher's arrow.

The baseball passed the pitcher's mound and bounced off the pitcher's board to slow down.

Take advantage of this gap. Tokuda, an agile shortstop, got behind the pitcher's mound and caught the baseball.

"First base!"

It was the main general Yabe Akio who gave the order, not Li Yuanrang.

Yabe faced the pitcher's mound, and he saw that runner Saito on third base was approaching home plate.

In this situation, home plate needs to be touched, and first base is blocked.

Coupled with the difference in time and distance, it was much more difficult for Saito to go to home plate to get out than to block Komuro who ran to first base.

Forcing not to concede points may result in more losses for the defence.

Tokuda can throw more than 140 kilometers of speedballs when throwing, and the speed of passing is certainly not ambiguous.

Despite the beater's best efforts, he didn't have time and was blocked in front of the first base.

However, first baseman Masaoka couldn't catch up with home plate if he wanted to pass back home.

The opposing four-baseman Saito finally returned to home plate safely.

Hayata Sho made the preemptive point.

……

The first half of the second inning ended with a strikeout from Nishida, the seventh batter.

When Li Yuanrang returned to the rest area, his mood was somewhat complicated.

To be sure, against a team like Hayata, being hit only one hit in a game is not an unacceptable result.

But one hit and lost points. Now, after all, the team is in a bad situation.

College baseball is a single-elimination game, and the pressure on the team behind is probably much greater than that on the leader.

Thankfully, it's still the beginning of the game. But on the other hand, in the second half of the game, except for Li Yuanrang, the first hitter, the other players have to be regarded as "late rods".

In terms of team completion and bench depth, the Peace School is much worse than its opponents.

And the other side's supervision also seems to be deliberately distributing the threatening hitters evenly among different batters.

"Any indication for the blow below?"

Li Yuanrang took off the trapper's equipment, and then began to wear the protective gear of the strike. By the way, this sentence was said.

His hope is to leave the pressure of decision-making to Overseer Yagi.

"No, the words of the blow. You're better than I am. ”

Superintendent Yagi replied.
