The scoreboard on the court records the number of hits, points scored and turnovers by both teams. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On this side of Rentian Industries, the number of hits is one.

In other words, from the beginning of the game to the present, Fukushima Ichihei has only been hit by his opponent in six innings.

It was in the first inning when Miyamoto, the opponent's second batter, hit a powerful roll through first and second base.

"It's a pity, I was hit in the first inning, otherwise I might have had a chance to challenge the no-hitter game."

Tian Gu, who is in charge of intelligence, is also the team's real recorder, looking through the record book in his hand.

"Maybe it's because I was hit in the first inning that I've been able to play so consistently, right?"

Yabe knows the leader of his team. Ichihei Fukushima is a pitcher who likes to put pressure on himself.

Being hit by his opponent at the beginning of the game made it easier for him to relax and throw the ball with peace of mind.

The pitching content of the first six innings of today's game was excellent by Fukushima's own standards.

Not only did the ball control maintain a consistent level, but the speed of the speedball remained stable at around 135 kilometers.

In the last few games of the West Tokyo Games, Fukushima used a three-quarter shot, and the ball speed exceeded 140 kilometers at one point.

After obtaining the right to appear in Koshien. Fukushima is trying to find a new balance between ball speed and ball control.

This balance point is "135 kilometers".

It is because of the increase in average ball speed that the straight ball is more powerful. Li Yuanrang can reduce the proportion of sliders in the ball distribution.

Although when facing a right-hand striker, Lee often uses a slider that escapes from the outside corner as a weapon to capture the air. But in all fairness, Fukushima's slide shot wasn't pretty.

Compared to Hasegawa, the opponent's pitcher who is good at skating today. Fukushima's slideball curve is more pronounced and changes earlier. Therefore, it is easier to be seen through by opponents.

At the same time, changing the ball is also more physically demanding and wears out the arm than a straight ball. So far in this game, Li Yuanrang's matching menu has accounted for nearly seventy percent of the straight balls.

This is all due to the excellent form of Fukushima Ichihei today's straight ball.

The top half of the seventh inning coincided with the start of Rentian Industry's third round of blows.

The first hitter, international student Mario, finally used his sprint speed to run the second hit of the day.

Miyamoto, the second baseman at the second base, followed the instructions and kept trying to strike. After two failures, I had to change to a normal striking stance.

Miyamoto's swing misses the baseball. But he may have deliberately leaned forward in his striking stance to help the runners succeed in stealing the base.

One out and there are people on second base. Although it was not a strike sacrifice, Rentian Industry still realized its tactical intent.

In this game, Rentian Industries' best scoring opportunity so far is now.

"Any tactical instructions?"

Before entering the strike zone, the third outfielder, Arakawa, made a point to say this to the superintendent.

"It's certainly the best hitter in this situation. But I think if the opponent is behind in terms of goals, you can try to wait and deliver. ”

"The opponent hasn't scored four bad goals so far."

"You're not very good at hitting the ball out of bounds, you can make the four bad balls yourself."

"I'm going to try to hit a hit."

Arakawa didn't wait for the superintendent to reply, and walked directly to the strike zone with the bat.

Once out, there really isn't much room for tactics in a situation where there are people on second base.

Arakawa was able to maintain the first position, relying on his own striking strength.

He hasn't been able to play this game so far.

The next hitter is the team's four-batter. But Arakawa wasn't going to just grind a send. He wants to tie the score with his own hands.

Lee Wonrang's match to this opponent starts with a high fastball in the inside corner. Then alternate the inside and outside corners with the ball.

The number of balls becomes two good and two bad. For the defender, there is also a bad ball that can be used as a bargaining chip for the match.

Li Yuanrang intends to match an outside corner slider.

This is a tactic he has used in his previous matches to deceive the opponent's air vibration, but in this game it was rarely used because Fukushima's straight ball was in excellent condition.

And this ball is right in Arakawa's arms.

Arakawa has been watching the ball path of Ichihei Fukushima. Of the three types of balls, straight, curved, and slided, Arakawa felt more confident about Fukushima's sideways slide, which had a clear trajectory.

He's always looking for a slider that doesn't go too far from the good zone.

But he didn't see a single slider in the last session.

Now he felt his chance had come.

Although this slider from Fukushima will definitely end up deviating from the good zone. But after all, it's not far, it's the distance that the hitter can get.

Arakawa has good stick control skills. The outside corner was driven into the right field.

Ichihei Fukushima hurriedly turned around.

"Catch, catch, catch."

Fukushima muttered in a voice that only he could hear.

Akio Yabe retreated all the way, and the ball suddenly lost speed above his head.

The baseball was caught in the glove.

"Hurry back!"

Not only Li Yuanrang, but several players in the Uchino shouted out almost at the same time.

Mario on second base has already started. He is the fastest runner in the Rentian Industrial Formation.

But Yabe didn't dare to pass directly to third base. He was too far away.

By the time the ball passed into the shortstop Tokuda's glove, Mario was almost already turning on third base.

His teammates in the third-base running area shouted at him.

Tokuda's pass to third base was a step slower. Mario returned to base in time. Two outs, but the runner went to third base.

"If it were a different stadium, the ball might not have been caught."

Arakawa, who returned to the rest area, put the blame for the exit on the sea breeze in the right field of Koshien.

"yes, if it's at Yamashiro Park Stadium, this ball would still be a home run."

The Yamashiro Park Stadium mentioned by Superintendent Yamauchi is a venue used for the Kyoto Prefectural Games. With only ninety-one metres on the wings of the outfield, it's easy to hit a home run.

"Anyway, I pushed the runners, didn't I."

As soon as Arakawa's words fell, there was a crisp sound of a metal bat hitting the ball from the field.

Iwata, the fourth batter of Rentian Industries, also hit a deep fly ball in the outfield.

This time it was stalwart Miyagi who caught the baseball.

"You see, if you have been able to get a ball away, you can expect a teammate down there, and the runner can still go to third base. You can tell for yourself that the ball is bad. ”

"The opposing pitcher's slider is the best to hit, even if it's a bad ball. And Iwata didn't hit a hit. ”

"You didn't make it because of yourself. And Iwata is following my instructions in the shot. ”

Iwata, a fourth-grade batter, returned to the rest area with his bat.

'Sorry, couldn't equalise.'

Iwata bowed in the direction of the overseer.

"Don't worry, go grab your gloves and get ready to defend."

Superintendent Yamauchi deliberately stood up and patted the shoulder of the next year's commander in his mind.

This was the end of the first half of the seventh inning. The School of Peace held on to the leading score. (To be continued.) )
