In the first half of the third game, Cheng Gongming's state was still not very good, but with the help of the guard, he won the game again and again.

The most important defense in the second half, although the state of the valley is good today, but it is the turn of the second round to play the line, and Inagi Industry, which is not weak in attack, frequently wins hits.

"Now the situation on the field is that one is out, there are people on first and third base, and then it is the turn of Inashi's second batter Shirakawa, can Inami seize the opportunity and equalize the score?"

When there were people in the circle, Bai He didn't swing the stick in a hurry, but carefully identified each ball, and then stuck to the pitch of the valley, and finally let him wait until the ball count was in his favor.

'It's time for the valley to go down now, don't worry about the rest of the all-out pitching!' ’

Following Miyuki's instructions, Shizuya attacked the inner corner with a fierce momentum. In the past, because there were people on the base, I didn't shoot with all my strength, but this time I really threw it very hard.

The ball roared and flew towards the hitter, the speed of the ball was very fast, so that when the hitter thought that he was dazzled, the baseball had already come to him, and the hitter who failed to swing the baton was a little helpless, and he was struck out like this.....

"Four bad balls, hitter goes to first base!"

"Huh!?"

But contrary to the expectations of Miyuki and the hitter, the referee judged this ball to be a bad ball.

'Luckily, that shot turned out to be a bad ball. ’

Damn, the boundaries of that goal are very blurred, and it's not surprising either way, but it's bad luck. ’

"Oh~, Daoshi's second stick is very good, he chose four bad balls, and now it's an out, full base, at this time ushered in the center line of Daoshi High School, is Daoshi winning the hit to overtake the score, or Qingdao to hold this game."

Miyuki looked at the situation on the field, and although he was a little risky, he still made a code,

"Ah, Qingdao is on guard, it seems that they don't want to give up even a point."

'Drop valley, suppress it with force here, so that even if you hit a hit, you won't be able to fly far, so turn this crisis into an opportunity.' ’

Inajo's three-bat Yoshizawa swung the first ball in the face of the drop valley, and the ball was smothered between the second and third bases by him, because the strength was very sufficient, and the baseball rebounded very strongly, and it bounced very high.

Just when everyone thought the ball might bounce over the shortstop's head and fly towards the outfield, a shadow fell in the sky, and Kuramori jumped high to intercept the ball with his bare hands and passed it to home plate.

Miyuki, who received the baseball, directly touched the runner and then passed straight to second base. Ryosuke Kominato, who bent down to catch the ball, pressed down on his glove and touched the runner who rushed to second base.

The referee in the inner field was silent for a moment, and then clenched his fist with one hand,

“out！”

"Yo Xi, hold on!"

"Well done, Kurachi."

In the third game, under the excellent defense of the cheetah Kurachi, with Miyuki's laser shoulder, Qingdao successfully won the double kill and firmly locked the score of the third game.

"Although he tried his best to pitch for the team, from this inning, the odds of them getting better and better. There is still no way to lock the game perfectly. ”

"Well, how many balls are there now?"

The manager, who was doing the work of a recorder, lowered his head and glanced at the score book,

"After three rounds of throwing, there are currently 65 balls, the opponent has played a lot of throw-ins, and he still has two four bads, and the number of balls is much more than originally expected."

"I see, it's going to be Tanba in the next game."

As soon as he returned to the rest area from the pitcher's hill, he heard the bad news, and he couldn't accept it for a while, so he was stunned directly, and when he saw such a valley, Kawakami quickly pulled him in, and Xiao Minato connected the water cup on the ground. Miyuki looked at him and comforted,

"You're doing well today, you're going to have to do a good job later, oh, by the way, remember to change into a sweat-wicking suit."

"Good shot, drop valley, leave the rest of the game to me."

Tanba, who had just been called back from the cowshed, also comforted Sumiya, who was already very powerful in the face of Inashi's ability to lock up the three games, and even Tamba was not confident that he could completely suppress Inami's line.

"Yes....."

"Chris-senpai, how is Tamba-senpai's state?"

"It's not bad, it's a little stiff, so the state of the straight ball is not particularly ideal, but the state of the longitudinal curved ball and the knuckle ball can be said to be perfect, and you can call more change balls after a while to help Tanba loosen his body."

"Yes, I see!"

In this way, Tamba was handed over to Miyuki by Chris, and Shibuya was a little disappointed to be next to Rongchun.

Now on the field is Izawaki, still with his trademark roar, sending the baseball flying in the direction of the midfield.

At this time, Carlos once again showed his superiority in foot strength, and after a gallop, he bagged the ball.

When it was time to get out of the game, the cheering song sounded on the field again, and Narumiya on the pitcher's mound muttered impatiently,

"It's so noisy...."

Then it was directly formed with three strikes, and the support song was stopped directly, and three good balls in a row were formed into three swings.

'That stinky boy, it's too far from when he dealt with us. ’

Izawaki, who hadn't walked back to the rest area, happened to see this scene, and he gritted his teeth in anger, and cursed in his heart.

"What's going on, the seniors have been unable to play a good seat in a row."

"Targeted...."

"What?"

"This is the most common situation, some people are to form a four-bad escort, or escape, but Chenggong is different, that guy except for the formation, the other people don't do their best when pitching! Damn, it's too easy. ”

"Huh? But haven't we done special training? ”

"Special training is one thing, the real play still depends on the game, although Sawamura simulated Narimiya's pitching, but it is not 100% accurate, and it takes time to correct. Coupled with the guidance of the catcher, it is even more difficult. ”

Hearing the words explained by the seniors, the other first-year students of Qingdao couldn't believe it, in the face of Qingdao's line, can it still be so easy?

"Three people are out, offense and defense change sides, Qingdao this game, start attacking from the center line, but it is still three up and three down, Daocheng Industry's trump card Chenggong, it seems to be slowly starting to enter the state."

In the second half of the fourth inning, the Qingdao players were exchanged, and it was Koichiro Tanba, who was carrying the ace on his back, who stood on the pitcher's mound.

Standing on the field, Tamba was still a little nervous, he gently hammered his heart with his hand, took a slow deep breath, calmed down and tidied up the ground under his feet.

Tanba, who played in the fourth game, the first hitter was Inami's four-stick Harada, and he saw what Narumiya did to Yucheng in the last game.

"Even if you don't have the strength of Chengmiya, but the shame of the last game must be returned to you!" ’

Harada was greeted by Tanba's aggressive longitudinal curveball, looking at the baseball flying towards him, Harada couldn't help but lean back, but the baseball finally fell to the position of Miyuki's glove and was indeed a little downward.

"It's such a terrible change, and if you can throw such a longitudinal curveball, the whole Kanto region will be gone." ’

This was followed by the second ball thrown by Tanba's seniors, and after the longitudinal curved ball system, a straight ball came, and such a change made it difficult for Harada to adapt, and although he touched the baseball, he went out of bounds.

Miyuki took the baseball given by the referee and glanced at Harada,

I followed it all of a sudden, just like Chris said before, the state of the change ball is good, and the power of the straight ball is still a little weaker.

Then cast here, Tamba senpai....'

"Bang!"

"Good shot, hitter out!"

Solving the four sticks made Miyuki breathe a sigh of relief, because Tanba-senpai had just come on the field, and he wanted to give him a good start as much as possible to relax his mood.

The next pair is Cheng Gong Ming, who Yu Xing is most familiar with, and after a little provocation, Cheng Gong Ming went out of the game three times by himself.

When Tambo heads to the pitcher's mound, Jung Chun opens his eyes and invites Chris to accompany him to the cowshed. Rong Chun, who was in the warm-up, saw Tanbo, who had struck four sticks and five sticks in a row, and shouted excitedly,

"Ouxi, Ouxi, go up, give them another dismount, the target is three consecutive vibrations, Tanbo senior!!"

In the fourth game of the game, Rong Chun's cheering voice finally sounded on the field, I don't know why, this time everyone didn't dislike it too much, but there was a feeling that it was finally here.

"Haha, it seems that kid is finally in good spirits."

Under Miyuki's matching, he was also in good shape, and with the support of Rong Chun, Tanba successfully struck out Inami and easily returned to the rest area.

In the second half of the fourth inning, Naruto Narumiya was still the same pitching strategy as before, facing people other than Yucheng, only using seven points of strength, but as the game progressed, Narumiya's state was getting better and better, and the baseball he threw became more and more difficult to play.

Although the lower line has been entangled for a while, it is still inevitable to be out. Seeing the delicate pace of Narumiya when he went back, Tanba, who had finished drinking the water, flattened the paper cup in his hand, threw it into the garbage basket, and came to the pitcher's hill.

In the face of Inami's lower line, Tanba, who used a mixture of three balls, once again struck out two in a row, and in the face of Inami's nine sticks, Miyuki started with a finger fork ball, a straight ball hanging ball, and the idea of ending the curveball was arranged.

I don't know if I should say that the luck of the nine sticks was good, and he actually hit Tamba's curveball, because it was good luck to bump into it, and it didn't hit too far, but it was stuffy in front of Tamba.

Tanba hurriedly ran down the pitcher's mound and leaned sideways to catch the ball, but because he rushed a little hard, he almost fell and the baseball he received was also out of his hand.

Tamba picked it up and passed to first base, but unfortunately it was a little late, and the runner stepped on the base bag just before the baseball entered the first baseman's glove.

Tanba shouted to everyone after returning to the pitcher's mound,

"I'm sorry."

“Do mind”

"Don't take it personally, move on to the next one."

"Come on, Tanba."

Although his teammates comforted him, he still saw Tambo kick in anger and chop the pitcher's mound under his feet.

The next hitter, Carl Ross, came to the strike zone with a baseball on his shoulder, shook his bat a few times, and stared at Tamba.

In order to confirm Tanba's condition and show that he didn't care, Miyuki chose the curveball that had just been knocked out of the hit.

Maybe because of the previous influence, Tanba's predecessor's condition was not very good, and it was clear from Miyuki's side that Carl Ross directly knocked this ball out of bounds, although it was invalid, but this ball was far enough to bring some pressure to the two of them.

In order to restore Tanba's state as soon as possible, Miyuki's next matching ball is a change ball, two curved balls in a row, and after a finger fork ball, Miyuki felt that he couldn't do this, so he asked Tanba for a straight ball.

Carl Ross looked at this straight ball that was leaning against the center and easy to play, and did not hesitate to swing the bat, hitting it directly to the outfield, forming a good situation with people on first and third base.

Shirakawa, who followed up with two bats, also hit an infield hit, and the runner on third base made a thrilling return to base and scored a point.

At this time, Miyuki saw Kuramochi give him a gesture, and quickly called a timeout, and the Uchino guards gathered on the pitcher mound. When I came to Kurachi next to Tanba, I was the first to speak,

"Tanba-senpai, what's wrong with your feet?"

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback again,

"Tanbo, could it be the one who caught the ball just now..."

"What's going on?"

Seeing everyone hurriedly surrounding him, Tanbo, who originally wanted to hide it, said helplessly,

"It seems that I accidentally twisted it when I went down to catch the ball just now, and I confirmed it before, but there was a little bit of stinging, but I didn't expect the time I stepped on the ground when I pitched the ball to be more painful than I expected, so I didn't get used to it."

At this time, Miyuki was a little disappointed and annoyed, these emotions were all for himself, as a catcher, he didn't even notice the discomfort of the pitcher, or did others remind him to find out that he should have asked when he stomped his feet before Tanba, Miyuki said to Tanba with some apologies,

"I'm sorry, Tamba-senpai... I didn't find out. ”

"No, it's not your problem, it's my own fault, if I hadn't hidden it, I wouldn't have been tied the score."

"Enough for the two of you, it's not a matter of apologizing now, how is Tanbo doing now, is it serious? How it feels. ”

"It's okay now, but there is a tingling sensation at the moment of pitching, and it doesn't seem to be a big problem."

"So what now, do you continue to let Tanba's seniors pitch or ....."

Everyone understands what Kuramochi didn't finish, but if Tanba is let off the court now, the pressure on the follow-up pitcher will be even greater, but now the condition of Tanba's seniors is still unclear, and he can't easily call a doctor to come and expose the situation on his side.

"It's okay to keep casting, Tanba."

Yucheng opened his mouth and asked, although it was a questioning sentence, but the tone seemed to say that you must be fine, hearing Yucheng ask, Tanba hurriedly said,

"It's okay, I can continue."

"So, let's go on, there is one last hitter, and when we return to the rest area, let the doctor see if there is any problem. Let's help Tamba and Miyuki win this game! ”

"Yes....."

After the pause, everyone went back to their posts. Tamba moved and relaxed his shoulders.

Miyuki hammered the hammer glove and made a code signal to Tanba-senpai.

Yoshizawa, who had three sticks, looked at the obvious curveball trajectory and swung his bat,

"Phew!"

The shortstop Kuramochi retreated frantically, and Kadoda and Isashiki also ran towards the baseball spot.....
