Chapter 92: Gifts and Exchanges
Pitcher Shinichi Sakamoto's hit wasn't decisive. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoAt least it didn't cause any trouble for the School of Peace right away.
Iwashiro, a second-year third-year guerrilla attached to Sugino Daifu, is a difficult character to deal with when defending. But he wasn't mature enough in terms of blows.
Lee Wonrang and Issei Fukushima used just four balls to get a strikeout. Ended the bottom half of the seven innings.
In the first half of the eighth and ninth innings, the attack of the Peace School was as expected, and it did not achieve any results.
And in the second half of the ninth inning, Shannong Dafu attacked. If the School of Peace can hold on to its two-point advantage, then it can win this game and advance to the quarterfinals.
For Suginon's side, their offense starts with Hasegawa, the second base, and the center line will definitely have a chance to play. It's not too bad.
Hasegawa, who is a push-forward player, is not very sure in his strikes.
Therefore, after two good balls, it will automatically enter the sticky play mode.
All the way up to the seventh goal. Li Yuanrang was equipped with a surprise inside corner curved ball. Hasegawa's swing of the baton missed, and only then did the strikeout go out.
Ichihei Fukushima's pitch count also exceeded 110 goals at this time.
Fortunately, this number of balls is not enough to affect Fukushima's pitching posture and ball control.
The third bat, outfielder Shimizu. A player who is both offensive and defensive. This game also created a lot of trouble for the Peace Academy.
Against this kind of speedy hitter, hitting the infield rolling ball is more dangerous than a high flying ball.
Lee took advantage of pitcher Fukushima's height and long arm length to pitch into the base angle and tried to create a fly ball. Preferably an infield high flyer.
But Shimizu still seized the opportunity to hit the ball into a strong rolling ball in the direction of the three tours.
Peace School of Peace's guerrilla Tokuda ball once again played at a super level. After the sideways pounce, because he couldn't get up in time, he took advantage of the situation and passed the ball quickly to third base.
Third baseman Kawasaki is not a player known for his shoulder strength. But at least the passing power is above the passing line.
First baseman Masaoka received the ball a little at a reluctant time, but fortunately he was able to catch it in time.
Shimizu was blocked before first base. Two outs.
Now the Peace School is still a few more out of the game from the victory of this game. And the hitter who hit on the field was Takahiko Aoi, the fourth batter of Sugino Daifu.
Li Yuan let Aoi walk into the strike zone and make a secret call to Fukushima on the pitcher's hill. Fukushima nodded in agreement.
So Li Yuanrang stood up directly and moved a step to the outer corner.
"What are you...... Jingyuan escort? ā
Aoi was a little surprised by Li Yuanrang's behavior. In college games, many times the deliberate four bad shots are disguised as if the pitcher can't throw into the good ball zone.
"Why stand up otherwise?"
Li Yuanrang did not hide his intention to escort his opponent. In this match, he himself has eaten several escorts in a row.
Especially after the opponent replaced the ace pitcher Sakamoto, he no longer disguised himself when he was escorted, and the catcher stood up to catch the ball.
Li Yuanrang's current approach is just an exchange of courtesies.
Ichihei Fukushima threw two bad balls in a low-effort high parabolic manner.
On the third ball, Takahiko Aoi swung his baton into the air in the strike zone.
"Two points ahead, only one number of outs, what are you afraid of! Head to head! ā
Aoi yelled at Li Yuanrang and Fukushima.
This caught the attention of the referee at the back of home plate.
"Please don't provoke your opponent!"
The referee issued a warning to Aoi.
Seeing the referee's warning, Li Yuan reminded him of his behavior in the previous games. I feel a little lucky.
Li Yuanrang also once swung a stick at the bad ball that was escorted. But before he could help but shout, he was reminded by Captain Fukushima.
Finally, it didn't leave any bad impression on the referee.
After being reprimanded by the referee, Aoi lowered his head and silently waited for four bad balls.
"It's cunning."
Before walking to first base, Aoi said.
"Thanks for the compliment."
Li Yuanrang replied with a smile.
Lee avoided a fight with his opponent's toughest hitter. Next to stand in the strike zone is the five-stick Wada. A strong stick with one of the best long-term playing abilities in the team.
However, now for Shannong Dafu, the certainty of the blow is more important.
Although if Wada had played his long game and hit a home run, he would have been able to equalize immediately.
But if you are out, you can end the game immediately.
"The overall strike rate of this Hetian University is probably less than forty percent. If you only look at the results of the third grade, it is even lower. Only about three out of two. ā
In the rest area, Tian Guwu took his notepad to confirm the opponent's information.
Sitting next to him was Donald Hirata, who had made a slight improvement in his Japanese, but still barely understood everyday conversations.
Anyway, according to the information collected by Tagu. Wada hits only one hit every three hits.
In a college-level game that is a winner, this is not a very high probability.
"But this Wada hasn't hit a hitter in this game. In terms of probability, isn't the probability of hitting a hit now greatly increased? ā
The person who interjected was the team's instructor, Sato. Usually addicted to his smartphone, he doesn't have much to pass the time and has to focus on the game.
"That's not how the batting rate data looks. Not to mention that the batting rate can only represent previous results. Even if you look at the batting rate as the probability of hitting, it doesn't mean that there will always be three hits out of 10. ā
"But in mobile games, there is no card with a probability of 1 in 100, and if you draw it 100 times, you will come out or something."
Mr. Sato, who is worthy of being addicted to smartphones, seems to have a lot of money for mobile games.
"That's pseudo-randomness made by game companies to deal with people like you who don't know math. In fact, if you really take random numbers every time, the result should be ......"
On a whim, Tako, who came from the IT department, couldn't wait to take out a pen and paper to write the gacha code and show it to Mr. Sato.
But suddenly, he realized that he had just said something like "a guy who doesn't know math".
He looked up and looked at Sato-sensei's expression. The other party waited for his explanation expectantly.
So Tian Gu turned to the blank page of the notepad.
"If you explain it in pseudocode, it should be like this......"
Taking advantage of Mr. Sato's lack of reaction, Tagu quickly shifted his attention to the card drawing mechanism of the mobile game. Finally got through the trick.
On the playing field, the number of balls has become two good and two bad.
In order to be safe, this time in the face of Hetian's showdown, Li Yuanrang's matching ball was much more conservative.
The fifth ball, immediately following an outside corner ball, is a ball with a low outside corner.
Wada didn't swing the bat. But the referee ruled that it was a good ball.
Li Yuanrang took advantage of the difference in height between the two balls to make Hetian's judgment of longitudinal space error.
Finally earned the last number of outs in the bottom half of the nine innings.
Teammates poured onto the pitcher's mound and hugged the Fukushima captain.
And Li Yuanrang wore the heavy protective gear of the catcher and did not go to join in the excitement. Just patted his teammates on the shoulder on the periphery to celebrate.
The shot caught the attention of his teammates. Everyone ran over and hugged Li Yuanrang.
Although I'm not used to the sweaty hugging habit of the sports club. But Li Yuanrang was still infected by the joy of his teammates and did not dodge.
