Chapter 259
In the first ball, the nine-batter swung in the air, and the second ball was still in the air, and there were already two good balls, chasing the hitter.
Under the nervous gaze of everyone, the third ball flew towards home plate.
The batter, who had already swung his bat, saw the baseball suddenly change as it approached home plate, and although he tried desperately to reach a ball, he still failed to hit the center.
The baseball rolled a little weakly in front of him, and the first baseman rushed out to catch the ball, and he subconsciously ran to the first base to make up for it.
And the runner on third base, who saw that he hit the baseball, also started at the same time.
Miyuki half-squatted at home base and said to the front garden where he received the baseball,
"Home plate."
After Maezono bent down to receive the ball, he didn't even have time to stand up straight, and passed it to Miyuki along the way.
After receiving the baseball, Miyuki's glove pressed down on the runner who came back from the high-speed sliding base, and touched the runner lightly.
"Out, Offense and Defense!"
The referee at home plate said clearly with his arm half-raised.
Although he lost a point, Qingdao still had a slight advantage at the moment.
And the valley also successfully survived in the third year of the city university.
In the first half of the third game, the Qingdao hitters who originally wanted to score points again were all defeated by the pitch of the recovering Tianjiu Guangsheng.
Looking at such a trump card of the third year of the city university, the expressions of the Qingdao players became more and more serious.
It didn't take long for it to be the guard of the Qingdao Road again, probably because of the previous game, and everyone looked a little nervous.
However, the valley can't be seen, and the performance is getting better and better, first striking out a batter, and facing a second batter, it only took five goals.
His shoulders seemed to be getting easier, and the power and speed of his pitches increased dramatically.
As if they had suddenly woken up, the two pitchers struck their opponents one after another.
As the game entered the second half of the fourth inning, the situation suddenly changed, and the decline that had been excellent in the previous game seemed to be back to the inconsistent state of the second game.
The first hitter, the four-batter, Hoshida, struck him with a happy triple in this inning, but the problem was what happened next, and the change of the ball suddenly went out of control.
Faced with a five-bat, he suddenly threw a four-bad break, followed by a second-run hit on the sixth.
The scene suddenly changed to a situation where there were people on second and third base.
Miyuki's attempt to use a straight ball to adjust the state of the valley has indeed been effective.
But when it was the turn of the batter, he hit a well-timed hit straight to the guardrail and scored two points at once.
Perhaps because of the sudden loss of points, in the face of the nine-batter Shibuyu, he suddenly threw a sweeter ball.
The nine-batter, who did not let go of this small mistake, once again scored a point for the third high school of the city.
There is only one number of outs left, but it can't be taken down for a long time.
After Miyuki called a timeout, he communicated briefly with Shibuya, but after restarting the game, it still didn't work well.
First, he was hit by a batter and a crossing hit on first and second base to send the runner up to third base.
Then, under the offensive of an active base steal, the last one out did not catch it, and finally lost another point.
Losing four points in a row in one game, Miyuki's brow furrowed, glanced at the valley, and made a secret signal towards the rest area of Qingdao.
At that time, Qingdao's rest area couldn't sit still, and Rong Chun was called back from the cowshed by his seniors, and he frowned and looked at the scene on the field.
"Sawamura, it's your turn!"
"Yes!"
"Qingdao high school players alternated, pitcher Shigu Jun went off the court, and it was the No. 1 pitcher Sawamura-kun and pitcher Sawamura-kun on the field."
The loudspeaker sounded throughout the arena, and everyone looked at the figure running toward the pitcher's mound.
"It's finally out, Qingdao's trump card!"
Standing on the pitcher's hill and didn't want to leave, Rong Chun sighed helplessly and said,
"You should be very uncomfortable right now, Downvalley! Don't be reckless, leave it to me here, and I'll suppress the next hitters. β
Under Rong Chun's serious gaze, the hand holding the baseball loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened, and slowly put the baseball into Rong Chun's gloves.
When he passed by Rong Chun, he said softly,
"Ah, I'm so angry, I'm so tired...."
For this sentence of the valley, Rong Chun's expression did not change, and Yu Xing said to him solemnly,
"Sawamura, do you know the situation on the field?"
On the stage of such a scene, Yu Xing was a little worried, although Rong Chun had saved many returns,
"Ah, two outs, there are people on first and third base, the number of balls is three bad balls and no good balls...."
This scene is not unserious, especially at this number of balls, as long as Rong Chun has a trace of hesitation and nervousness, it may cause a full base.
And the third year of the city has been replaced since the Qingdao Dao, and the atmosphere has been a little high, especially the Tianjiu Guangsheng who is in good shape.
He lay on the fence of the rest area, looking at Rong Chun with burning eyes, as if he was going to roast Rong Chun thoroughly.
Fortunately, he still knew that he was in the middle of the game, and he didn't shout Rong Chun's name.
This made the players of the city university who had been paying attention to him breathe a sigh of relief.
Rong Chun, who has just been changed to the court, has a few opportunities to try to throw, and Miyuki does not ask for other balls, just Rong Chun's commonly used straight balls.
"You can see from this side that the completion of that straight ball is so high, it's very beautiful."
"But the speed of the ball is really not that fast compared to the valley, and it gives people a very normal feeling."
"Sure enough, it's that strange position, the legendary one who can't see the ball point..."
With the efforts of the powerful intelligence investigators of the third high school in the city, they finally took off the first layer of Rongchun's vest.
"Rong Chun's straight ball is very difficult to hit, in that position."
Tianjiu turned his head excitedly and said to his teammates, and the others were a little puzzled,
"Guangsheng, have you ever played Rong Chun's pitching?"
"Huh? Didn't I say that? β
There are a lot of small question marks on Tianjiu's head,
"I haven't said it!"
The players of the third year of the city university collectively roared at their unobtrusive aces, and waved their hands without any care.
"That's what happened during winter break..."
"Has it been that long?"
When the players of the third year of the city college were about to force the question of Tianjiu, Rong Chun's test throw was also over, the game started again, and the three bats of the third year of the city college also stood on the strike zone.
Rong Chun took a deep breath, slowly exhaled it, and then in one breath, spit it out again.
Let your spirit and state be adjusted to the peak, outlining a signature bright smile,
"I'm going to keep getting knocked out, everyone on guard, please take care of me!"
"Oh!!"
Then take a pose and slam your right foot firmly on the ground to transfer the power to your upper body, with your arms hidden behind you.
Just when Sanba was a little nervous, he was already preparing to swing the bat, but he found that his arm had not appeared for a long time.
Then suddenly, a baseball slammed into the field and grazed in front of him.
"Bang!"
"Good shot!"
'This is....'Ei-chun' pose? β
Just when he was still a little confused, Rong Chun's next ball had already taken off his hand and flew towards him.
The outer corner, which can be seen more clearly than the inside corner, makes the three bats can't help but wave the bat, but,
'It's so far....'
"Bang!"
And then the third ball, under the somewhat shocked expression of the three sticks,
'So sweet!? β
Suddenly it fell on home plate, and the three bats were empty again.
'Finger fork ball... ?...'
With three strikeouts in the air, Qingdao's ace did not waste a single goal, and only used three good balls to solve the central hitter of the city's three high schools.
The junior players of the city university, who originally wanted to interrogate Tianjiu, are not free at the moment, and the offense and defense are exchanged, and it is their turn to defend.
"Haha, cast beautifully, stupid village!"
"Good vote, Rong Chunjun."
"Good ball, Sawamura."
What greeted Rong Chun back to the rest area was the collective roar of the Qingdao support group,
"Yo Xi Yo Xi Yo Xi...."
Rong Chun grinned and took a deep breath,
"Yo Xi Yo Xi Yo Xi...."
For the sake of Rong Chun's perfect rescue, Cang Zhi covered his ears and stood aside, not pursuing Rong Chun's noise at the moment.
"That guy is still so noisy!"
There was no game today, and the ace Cheng Gongming, who came to watch the game, said with a disdainful face.
"But Seongdo's atmosphere changed all of a sudden, from the time he played."
Bai He said gloomily, and Carl Ross thought of something to ask and answer,
"By the way, I haven't seen you send messages to Sawamura lately."
At the mention of this Bai He's expression became even more gloomy, making people unconsciously think that they had violated some taboo.
In fact, before the spring break, the two were still communicating, and just some time ago, Rong Chun happened to find some photos and sent them to Baihe.
Then he never received a reply from Bai He, although Rong Chun was a little strange, but because he happened to be a little busy during that time, this matter was let go.
In fact, the reason is very simple, even a little naΓ―ve. The communication between the two Chris blows is naturally inseparable from Chris.
And Rong Chun's photo is officially a photo of him going to Chris's senior's house and having dinner with Chris and his father during winter break.
and Chris's bedroom is open to the public, and there is a handmade breakfast.
Although both of them are fans, this does not mean that the two will get along very well.
White River and Chris had been in the same young stick for so long, and although they had been to Chris's house, they had never stayed overnight, let alone made breakfast by Chris.
For a moment, Bai He's jealousy exploded instantly, if it weren't for the fact that they were preparing for training intensively, Bai He might have rushed to Qingdao to beat Rong Chun.
Let Rong Chun know the fiery feelings from the jealousy of his fan brother.
Rong Chun, who didn't know that he had escaped, still poked Baihe from time to time, but recently Rong Chun's mobile phone broke down again, which reduced the use of mobile phones even more.
After Rong Chun's garrison was over, Tianjiu started his performance again, in fact, he was high, and his pitching became more and more gorgeous.
The trajectory of the slider is also becoming more and more scary, so that the beaters who have seen it have a much uglier expression after returning to the rest area.
Rong Chun clapped his hands and said easily,
"OK, OK, good swing momentum, let's continue."
"Are you an overseer?"
From the moment Rong Chun came on the court, the score began to freeze, although the players in the third year of the city university could rely on their strength to sweep out or touch.
Most baseballs that don't hit the center of the ball form a high flight in the outfield, or hit the defensive range of the infield.
Kuramochi and Minato began to get busy, constantly running.
"It's good to pick it up, Kurachi senior~~"
"Koharu, you've evolved into Haruo!!"
"Huh? Didn't I evolve a long time ago?"
After being given a lot of strange nicknames by Rong Chun, Xiao Minato's expression is becoming more and more like Ryosuke's predecessors.
Occasionally, I glanced at it.,I thought it was Ryosuke's seniors back.γ
The tug-of-war continued until the eighth inning, and although Qingdao was able to get on base occasionally, he couldn't take advantage of the opportunity.
Even Kominato and Hakushu, who had the highest batting percentage, were both knocked out with strikeouts.
Three points.... There is a small gap with the third year of the city, but I always feel that I can't catch up.
"Phew!"
In this continuous lack of points, Qingdao's four bats hit the baseball heavily on the guardrail behind the stalwarts.
Subsequently, the front garden lightly clicked, although it was not as subtle as Rong Chun, and he was not able to get on the base, but Yu Xing was standing on the third base.
Then there was Rong Chun, who was on base last time, but couldn't run back, because the drop valley and Rong Chun's blows were becoming more and more stable.
One is strong, the other is accurate, and Superintendent Kataoka adjusted their rods forward.
Now it's just one out, and there are many tactics that Qingdao can choose from.
After seeing Superintendent Kataoka's instructions, Miyuki silently distanced himself from third base.
Rong Chun also touched the brim of his hat, and the catcher Takami saw Miyuki's movements and raised his vigilance.
Qingdao is a team that is very good at grabbing points, especially the current hitter, the success rate of short plays is very high, and the speed is also very fast.
Takami made a gesture, and the Uchino guard of the third year of the city university was on guard, ready to sprint at any time.
When Tenku's pitch flew to home plate, Eijun suddenly picked up the bat, but perhaps because of the weight of the ball, the baseball bounced out of bounds.
"Sawamura.... Failed to play a short fight? β
This is the first time everyone has seen Sawamura's short fight fail, even when it rained before, Rong Chun has never failed.
"Is Tianjiu Guangsheng's pitching so terrifying?"
'Sure enough, it's going to be forced to score points! β
Takami glanced at Miyuki, who was ready to start when Rong Chun was short playing,
'Does Qingdao really trust this trump card, do you think he will definitely succeed in the short fight? β
After the surprise attack failed, Rong Chun simply put on a short fight posture,
'The pitch of the Light Saint is not so easy to succeed! β
Seeing through the high opinion of Qingdao's deployment, he made a secret signal to Tianjiu.
Tianjiu threw a ball full of his enthusiasm towards Rong Chun.
Then in the eyes of the catcher's surprised eyes, Rong Chun took half a step back, pulled back the bat, and then swung it out violently.
"Phew!"
After the crisp sound, Rong Chun threw the bat to a position that did not hinder the running base and rushed forward.
And Miyuki, who has been preparing for the sprint, has no action at the moment.
'Fooled....'
This thought filled Takami's mind, and he thought of Rong Chun's bug-like short hit data, and then thought of the failed short hit that popped out of bounds just now.
'They weren't aiming for a short fight in the first place, and that guy gave me a set!'
