Chapter 42: A Stick to the Future! (2nd Update)
"Ping!"
When he saw Li Lei's first goal, he took the initiative to shoot and flew the ball out cleanly.
Everyone at the scene was stunned.
They have always believed that Li Lei's striking strength is not very good.
Not to mention Sanada Shunhei's pitching, even the previous third-grade senior Mino.
Even if it was the ball he thrown, Li Lei couldn't get a hit.
As for facing Sanada Junhei twice before, Li Lei has the experience of failing to swing the baton three times.
With such an outstanding player, is it necessary to act with them?
The answer is obvious, of course, Li Lei does not have that need.
Since it is not acting, it must be Li Lei's striking strength.
This kind of thing is not uncommon among baseball pitchers.
Some players specialize in practicing pitching, and the second- and third-year players of the former pharmacist high school baseball team once thought that Li Lei was also in this situation.
I didn't expect this insidious guy to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger.
At the critical moment, they were ruthlessly defeated.
What are the second- and third-graders on the Yakushi High School baseball team thinking right now?
Li Lei didn't know, and he didn't know it.
Anyway, he himself trotted all the way and ran directly to first base.
The situation on the court instantly became that no one was out, and there was someone on first base.
Sanada Shunhei on the pitcher's mound, his pupils dilated when he saw this scene.
You must know their goal at the beginning, but they solved Li Lei, Akiba and Mishima one after another.
Unexpectedly, this plan failed at the beginning.
This means that it doesn't matter what they thought before.
In this game, they all have to go to the showdown with Thunder City.
"It's exciting! That's how the competition is fun!! ”
Faced with this unexpected situation, Sanada was not discouraged at all.
On the contrary, his fighting spirit is unusually strong.
In the ensuing entanglement with Akiba and Mishima, Sanada used all his skills.
He didn't back down at all because Li Lei was on the base.
Thunder Zang, who made a cameo appearance as the referee, is still very satisfied with Sanada's performance.
At the critical moment, he was beaten by Li Lei, and Sanada Junhei did not panic at all.
Not only did he hold his pace, but he also showed an extraordinary fighting spirit.
That's really good.
If you want to say that the biggest surprise after Boom Raizo took over the Yakushi High School baseball team, it is undoubtedly Sanada Shunhei.
Except for this little guy, the remaining second- and third-year players on the Yakushi High School baseball team are really a bit unsightly......
Their foundation is very weak, and their own technology and strength have been finalized.
Even if Bang Lei Zang takes the trouble to teach, the upper limit of these players is fixed.
Sanada Toshihei is different.
The ceiling of this young man has obviously not been fixed.
Of course, the lad is not without weaknesses.
Because he was always able to solve Li Lei smoothly before, not only the other second- and third-year players, but even Sanada himself was a little slack.
When facing Li Lei, he just didn't let go of his breath, as if he was going all out.
But in his heart, he obviously didn't think that Li Lei could really hit his ball.
It was precisely because of this carelessness in Sanada's heart that Li Lei hit the ball out and finally won the hit.
Compared with Li Lei's pitching, Li Lei's personal striking strength is indeed not enough, as if he is not a person at all.
But no matter how bad it is, Li Lei used to be a national-level player after all, he has experienced the top competitions and received the most rigorous training.
His blow, perhaps, is not so strong.
But if you ignore his blows, you will inevitably suffer in the end.
For Li Lei's fourth attack zone, he calculated Sanada's pitch and knocked Sanada's pitch out.
Supervisor Thunder Zang took this for granted.
After all, he arranged Li Lei on the first bat, and it was not a whim, he had to watch the excitement.
All of his strikes are ranked according to the player's individual strength.
Li Lei may not be as good as Mishima and Akiba, but his striking strength can definitely rank fourth among all the freshmen.
And that's just the power of swinging the bat.
If you add Li Lei's brain, and his keen insight.
The threat he poses to hitters in the strike zone is no less significant.
It's a pity that this point was ignored by Sanada.
Of course, Sanada also made up for it with practical actions.
First the autumn leaves were solved, and then Mishima was solved.
This process, of course, is not easy.
But in the face of Toshihei Sanada, who was full of firepower, Akiba and Mishima were still defeated.
In the three meetings so far, both of them are three up and three down.
There is no temper at all that is suppressed by Sanada Shunhei.
The situation became two outs and one on first base.
The second- and third-graders of the pharmacist high school baseball team, at this time, it was called a heart surging.
When Li Lei won the hit, to say that they were not worried must be nonsense.
They're worried, very, very worried.
Fortunately, the reliable Sanada Shunhei pulled them at the critical moment and dragged them back.
Although Li Lei was put on first base, it was only a first base.
In this case, they face off against Thunder City, and the odds of winning are still very high. After all, even if Thunder City wins a hit, they will win.
"Let him call!"
"We're going to stop the ball!"
"Even with our bodies, we don't let the ball pass in front of us."
Sanada Shunhei scored two outs cleanly, and the morale of the Yakushi High School baseball team was greatly boosted.
It seems that Lady Luck has not abandoned them yet.
The same goes for Shunhei Sanada on the pitcher mound.
His adrenaline rushed so fast that it filled his entire brain in an instant.
Even in the face of Thunder City, Sanada Toshihei at this time did not flinch.
He lifted his leg high and then fell hard, and as his center of gravity shifted, Sanada threw the baseball in his hand away.
"Whoosh!"
At the moment when the baseball was thrown, Sanada Shunhei seemed to press all the strength of his whole body on the pitch.
It's no exaggeration to say that this shot is really beautiful.
Even the guest referee Bang Lei Zang couldn't help but cheer for Sanada Shunhei's pitch.
This goal, absolutely.
However, at this moment, it seemed that a tornado suddenly blew on the strike zone.
A bat was born, blocked in front of the baseball, and directly pumped the flying baseball.
"Boom!"
The sound of breaking the air produced by swinging the stick made the beaters in the strike zone and the guest referee have a momentary sense of suffocation.
"Ping!"
The baseball that was hit was like a meteor across the sky, and I don't know where it fell?
At this moment, the entire baseball field of Yakushi High School was silent.
They were all stunned by the man's swing of the stick.
Until a strange laugh rang out.
"Click, hahaha......"
