Chapter 193
Although there is no tandem line, Qingdao has already started with a very good advantage.
In the second game, after the valley appeared, he first struck the opposite four sticks with a high-speed ball.
was beaten out by five sticks in the back, but it was just an outfield flying high, and he was caught by Aso without any suspense.
Then I don't know if it was the start of the five bats, and the next hitters hit the bats one after another, and the pitches of the valley were constantly hit out.
But fortunately, the teammates' defense was relatively strong, there were no mistakes, and they still won the game without losing points.
In the next five innings, Downvalley had two fours, lost one point, and finally left the pitcher's mound with exhaustion.
"Whew.... Whew...."
Rong Chun looked at the valley who was sitting on the rest chair panting heavily, and turned on the taunt skill without hesitation.
"You also said that you want to throw to the end, and you can't do it in the seventh game?"
"I.... I'm okay~"
Descending Gu said intermittently and weakly, Rong Chun pursed his lips and said,
"Look at your own appearance, you're all panting like this, how can you play, run more often!"
He wiped the sweat from his cheeks, although he was very unwilling to admit defeat, but now he really has no strength.
Waiting for the offensive of the seventh game to end, Rong Chun and Kawakami walked towards the court,
"Sawamura, why are you provoking the valley."
"I didn't, I just told the truth, obviously the pitching was so good, but I couldn't even hold the whole game, it's too bad!"
Rong Chun's face was full of unwillingness and jealousy, and Kawakami didn't know what to say.
"Now the only one of the three of us who can't shoot the whole game is Dip.
After the departure of the third-year seniors, our strength has dropped too much.
As the most important part of the defense, if we don't work hard, the autumn tournament will be very dangerous. ”
"Sawamura...."
Kawakami looked at Rong Chun, who was full of responsibility in his heart, and patted him on the back
"Don't worry, trust us a little, although we are not as reliable as the third-year seniors, but we are also seniors."
"No, Kawakami-senpai, I didn't mean that."
Rong Chun explained with some panic, looking at Rong Chun's flustered expression, Kawakami smiled,
"I know, Sawamura's worries, compared to others who focus on improving their strength, Sawamura, you can see the danger around us, you are really powerful.
But don't be alone, it's a good idea to talk to us a little. ”
Kawakami comforted Rong Chun, then pushed him and said to him,
"Alright, go to your place, it's time to start."
Rong Chun silently ran to the left field, looking at the back of Kawakami's seniors and not knowing what he was thinking.
He reflected on whether he was thinking too much, and Superintendent Kataoka, as the overseer, was very aware of the current state of Seido, but he didn't say anything.
Although he is not good at interpersonal communication, Miyuki should also have some opinions on Qingdao, whose strength has been greatly reduced.
And it is impossible for the delicate Kurachi not to be aware.
The front garden, which is moving forward steadily, is also clear about the gap with the previous one.
Isn't it a little too much for me now, I should focus on my pitching and performance more than worrying about the team.
Rong Chun, who had figured it out, hammered his gloves and stared at the front tightly.
When he saw the baseball flying over, he quickly ran over and pulled the baseball into his glove with a light sliding shovel.
Then he raised his gloves high and shouted,
“one out! one out! ”
Kawakami, who played on the court, held the three games very steadily, only two of the balls were high flying balls from the outfield, and the rest were controlled in the area of the infield.
Although there were runners on base due to the mistakes of Kanamaru and Maezono during the period, there were still thrilling hitters in the end.
In the end, in the first practice match, Seido won with a score of 4-1.
"I always feel like something isn't right."
"Well, the consistency of the line is too poor, and it's a little stiff when it comes to guarding in the back."
"Sure enough, you have to practice more."
After the practice match with Michael, Superintendent Kataoka didn't say anything, and everyone only discussed their shortcomings in this game while they were eating.
Among them, the players in the front and back rows who failed to grasp the opportunity many times reflected on the reflection.
They all knew what to do, but they couldn't do it, which made them very upset.
Anyway, after a short break, the opponents of the next game also came to school.
The starter in this field is Eijun, Kanemaru on third base is replaced by Higasa, the front garden of first base is replaced by Yamaguchi, the left field is Shizutani, the right field is Tojo, and the other players remain unchanged.
For Eijun, it was a good time to refresh his record in his final race in Koshien.
Before going on the field, he still fought with Yu Xing for a while.
Stand on the pitcher's mound and take a deep breath and shout your signature slogan.
"I'm going to keep getting knocked out, everyone on guard, please take care of me!"
Standing on the pitcher's mound with a bright smile, Rong Chun attracted a lot of attention.
"That's the left-hand pitcher, and he really says that before every game, it's funny."
"Shut up, stupid, you've also watched his game video, and being beaten out doesn't mean losing points."
"Although he lost a few points in the game against Ju Moda, this kid's point loss rate is generally quite low."
"Well, the opponent they defeated before also said that this pitcher's pitch is very strange, don't be careless."
"I know, I'm not careless, I just feel super funny, I want to get my turn soon."
Then it didn't take long for the one, two, and three sticks that hit on the field to quickly go out.
Although he felt that his teammates were not strong, the other players who did not play were becoming more and more curious about Rong Chun.
When it was the turn of the Qingdao to attack, Kuramochi staged his best show, but was intercepted by the opponent's shortstop in the air and failed to make the base.
The following Kominato, although he was very serious about pestering a few balls, was still guided out of a third base front.
And Yamaguchi, who came on the field next, can be seen from his physique as a power-type hitter.
He was struck out in a cautious tentative pitch by the opponent.
At the end of the first inning, neither side was able to score.
The initial merit loss did not have any effect on the Qingdao players, and everyone calmed down and helped Rong Chun win one knockout after another.
The number of innings of the game pulled down the fifth inning, and Aodo won the first point under Kuramoto's base, Kominato's base, and Yamaguchi's sacrifice.
Immediately after someone on base, Miyuki managed to hit a home run and score two more points.
With a three-point gap, Miyuki's distribution is becoming more and more bold, and it is very smooth when defending.
And when he hit, he kept hitting hits, but under the opponent's excellent defense, he didn't score any more points.
Eijun, who was physically stronger than Shibuya, was instructed by Superintendent Kataoka to stand on the pitcher's mound in the ninth inning.
Rong Chun, who was on the field, also glanced at the valley proudly, and the provoked valley naturally glared back.
'Won't lose..... The subject is stamina and ball control! ’
