Chapter 42 Ball Skills Competition (2)

In the afterlife, the event of the academy tournament is baseball.

Baseball is a kind of ball game with bats as the main feature, and it is collective and confrontational.

It has been widely developed in the international arena and has a great influence, and is known as 'the combination of competition and wisdom'. Baseball has a minimum legal size of 9 players, and a similar sport is softball.

Baseball players are divided into offensive and defensive teams, and use bats and gloves to play in a fan-shaped baseball field. During the game, the two teams alternate offenses: when the offensive player manages to run back to home plate, 1 point is awarded. The team with the most points in the nine innings wins.

Two teams play, each team has 9 players, and the two teams take turns attacking and defending. One point is awarded to the player who can step over 1st, 2nd, and 3rd base and return to home plate safely.

When the ball hits the ball, if the defender catches the ball, it is called a 'catch', and if the pitcher throws three 'good' balls at the batter, the runner is 'strikeout'. When 3 members of the attacking team are 'killed' out of the game, the two sides will switch offense and defense.

Each of the two teams will attack and defend once for one game, and the official match will be nine rounds, and the player with the most points wins.

Defensive players are named as follows according to their defensive position and duties: Pitcher, Catcher, 1st Baseman, 2nd Baseman, 3rd Baseman, Shortstop, Left Outfielder, Stalwarts, Right Outfielder.

The player who enters the batting team is called a batter. When a pitcher throws four bad balls or allows the ball to touch the runner's body, the runner 'safeguards' the first base, and the runner is called the 'runner' when the batter is safely on first base.

To put it simply, baseball is the sport of using a baseball bat to knock a ball into the air and then run to base before the ball is caught. A sport that requires the cooperation of multiple people.

As a baseball player, Hinata really feels a faint melancholy when she looks at her team.

Myself, Noda, Shiina, and Matsushita are fine. In any case, they all have good motor nerves.

But what are Youyi's stupid and Youyi's three NPC fans, when it comes to sports, it's not good at all.

The lively and excessively Yuyi, selling cute is a good hand, as for baseball, strikeouts are out.

Yuyi's three fans don't know if they know anything about baseball, and they are not a combat force at all.

The members are not good, the manpower is lacking, and the team I organized feels that the future is not bright no matter how I look at it. Hinata looked at the members of her baseball team and felt the urge to cover her face.

However, in order not to try the game of punishment that can turn people's personalities around, it is more terrible than death, and I can only reluctantly get on.

Hinata, who was worried, took his incomplete team and walked towards the first venue of the ball competition, the field field.

Although there is no certainty of victory, but, no matter what, the team is formed, and it is always necessary to participate in the battle.

………………

By the time Hinata worriedly led the team to the playground, the rest of the SSS team had already achieved good results.

The second venue of the ball skills competition.

TK swung the baseball bat in his hand hard, and the ball was knocked off. Flew out of the field.

"Home run!!" The referee waved his hands and shouted loudly.

"Okay, TK, you're a fan, that's great." The members of the Zhushan team shouted happily.

"Oh oh after." Dancing strange dance steps, TK easily ran around the position.

………………

The first venue of the ball skills competition.

Fujimaki swung his stick and knocked the ball away. Then he threw down his baseball bat and ran quickly.

Before the ball was picked up, Fujimaki had run to third base and was almost ready to score.

………………

The headquarters of the battle against the angels.

Yuri Nakamura, who was observing the situation of the people with a telescope, saw that the various teams composed of the world front after the death suppressed the teams composed of NPCs very badly, and successfully advanced one by one, and said with a happy smile: "Well, the assault operation is going quite well, then, I don't know how the angel is feeling." We don't have weapons, we just bats and gloves, what the hell are you going to do? I'm looking forward to it. ”

………………

The first venue of the ball competition, the field field. In front of the entry form. Hinata who came here with the team, looking at the results above, Hinata, who had successfully advanced to the team composed of members of the SSS team such as the Takamatsu team and the Takeyama team, had flames burning in his eyes, and said loudly: "The results are good, then, it's time for us to play." ”

Hinata was a baseball player when he was alive. The loss of a ball game and the failure to receive a key ball have become Hinata's lifelong regret and the biggest lack in Hinata's heart.

Therefore, Hinata has a special affection for baseball games, and every time she sees a baseball game, she will think of the second-base high-flying ball she missed.

If I hadn't missed at that time, would my life still be like this? If...... There are too many ifs......

"Here we go again......" Looking at the Hyuga team that had walked in, an NPC classmate said a little helplessly.

Looking at the team of NPC members in front of him, Hinata who was hindering the opponent's game said with a bright smile, "If you want to enter the next match, you have to win us first." How about deciding with guessing punches? ”

"There are really more and more teams...... "Looking at the Hyuga team that interfered with the game of himself and others, the NPC classmates who participated in the competition said with a little headache.

"But we're also students at this school!" Hinata, who smiled gently, gently pushed his elbow against Yuyidao beside him; "Hey, you can tell me too."

Hearing Hinata's prompt, Yuyi, who was missing a tendon, threatened loudly with his teeth and claws: "Just let the horses come, guys!" ”

At the moment when Yuyi's words fell, "Cross Solid" reappeared, and the crazy Hinata roared loudly at Yuyi: "What are you threatening people for!!? ”

"The joints are going to break...... If you can't hit a home run......" Yuyi, who was used by Hinata, shouted sadly.

"I didn't expect you to hit a home run in the first place!" Hinata, who was frantic, shouted loudly.

……

No matter how Hinata and Yui make trouble, the Hyuga team, which has uneven members and some people in the team who are seriously lacking in combat effectiveness, is finally inserted into the baseball game of this ball competition.

And at the same time that Shiina was dragged by Hinata to carry out the ball skill competition, Zheng Shuanglong, who was missing a tail behind him, also began to act.
