Chapter 57: Qingdao vs Yokohama (7)

Yagami ran down the pitcher's hill, caught the baseball flying from home plate, and successfully took Yokohama two batter Takuya Takahama out, and the next one to play was Yokohama three kotoaki.

"Whew!"

"Huh!"

"Bang!"

“Strike “

Faced with Yagami's first pitch on the pitcher's mound, the ancient city of Chimei missed the swing.

"Whew!"

Facing the second ball thrown by Yagami Night, Guru Zhiming still waved the bat in his hand without hesitation.

"Huh!"

The baseball galloping from the pitcher's mound collided with the bat swept by the ancient Akira above home plate.

"Ping!"

Although the ancient knowledge did not hit the center of the ball, the baseball flew straight upside down after being hit, flying towards the area between the third baseman and the shortstop.

"Shortstop, third baseman!"

Kentaro Matsuda, who was behind home plate, immediately stood up and shouted to third baseman Teriichi Shingu and shortstop Taro Fukuda.

Yagami also turned his head to look at the baseball flying overhead and speeding away.

After evading the interception of shortstop Taro Fukuda, the baseball landed in the ball sleeve of third baseman Jinguji Temple, who was driven over on the infield.

Jinguji took out the baseball from the ball sleeve and turned around to pass it to first base, but unfortunately it was a little slower, and the ancient city knew that he was the first to slide the base.

Behind the ancient city of Zhiming is Yokohama's four sticks and flowing water.

With a "I'm going to hit the ball" expression, he stood up in the hitting area and raised his bat in a gesture waiting to strike.

"Whew!"

"Huh!"

"Ping!"

"Out of bounds!"

……

"Whew!"

"Huh!"

"Ping!"

"Out of bounds!"

Three balls in a row, no matter whether Yagami Yagami threw a good ball or a bad ball, they were all hit by the water.

The second good ball is out of bounds, and as long as it is not a bad ball below, Yokohama's four sticks must be swung down; Next, as long as you don't let Shimizu Ryuang hit the ball, you can knock him out of the game three times, and Kentaro Matsuda's fear of Shimizuya is not as high as Yagami's.

Yagami Yagami, who was standing on the pitcher's mound, glanced at the water flowing in the hitting area, raised his arms high, took a step, twisted his waist and abdomen, and shook his left hand.

"Whew!"

The white baseball flashed like a white light, bursting out on the pitcher's mound and heading straight for home plate.

The water stream lit up and swung the bat in his hand with all his might.

"Huh!"

"Ping!"

After the swinging bat met the speeding baseball above home plate, the baseball was hit and flew out at great speed, heading towards the right field.

Gurushi at first base immediately ran after the baseball was knocked away by the drankhill, and the drankang quickly dropped the bat in his hand and ran to the first base.

Kiyo Fujii, the right fielder of Aodo, chased the baseball all the way to the depths of the right field, but unfortunately it was still a little close, and the baseball did not begin to lower in height until the fence near the right field, and finally fell in front of the fence in the right field, Fujii ran up to pick up the baseball on the ground, turned around and passed towards second base.

“safe.“

Unfortunately, when Tetsuya Yuuki, the second baseman, caught the pass from the senior of Jinguji, the Yokohama hitter pounced forward and touched the base bag of the second base first, and the Yokohama runner at the original first base, Tomoaki Furu, also managed to run to third base.

……

"Whew!"

The baseball shoots straight out of the pitcher's mound.

"Huh!"

The baseball flying from the pitcher's mound and the bat-wielding from the beaten man met perfectly above home plate.

"Ping!"

After the baseball was hit, it flew straight upside down and rushed in the direction of the middle field.

"Fielders!"

Eventually, the high-flying baseball flew through the infield and outfield and landed on the fence of the infield.

"Oh, that's a shame, it almost hit a home run."

"2 points, a second base hit by the five-batter right fielder Kenye Sato, let Yokohama score another 2 points, and now the score between the two sides has come to 1:7, and Yokohama has a large lead!"

On the field, Qingdao once again asked the referee for a timeout.

"Yagami!"

The Uchino guards all gathered around the pitcher's mound and shouted Yagami Yagami who had turned his face very ugly because he had been hit two second-base hits in a row by Yokohama's batter.

"Yagami, there is always only one duty of a pitcher, and that is to use his own pitching to take down the hitter in front of him." After Hiroshi Ota, the herald sent by Superintendent Kataoka, said this, he paused and continued: "But the pitcher is only the first line of defense in the team, and there are two lines of defense behind you, the infielder and the outfielder, and we who are still in the rest area, so don't worry about throwing the ball boldly!" No matter what kind of enemy you face, we will be with you! ”

After listening to Yagami, he looked at the seniors who were gathered in a circle around him, and they were all looking at him with encouraging eyes, which was indeed quite moving.

"Sorry to worry the seniors." Although Yagami's face was still a little bad, he had recovered, "I will keep the score and won't let them fly out again!" ”

"Come on!"

After Ota finished speaking, he turned around and trotted away from the arena.

"Yagami, come on."

"Cast it for them, we'll catch it!"

"Yagami, you can pitch with confidence."

The guards patted Yagami on the shoulder and retreated to the position they were going to guard.

"Fukuda, come to a big one!"

"Keep up the good work!"

In Yokohama's rest area, Yokohama's players are cheering for Fukuda Nagasho, who is about to go on the field, and the cheers of the support group in the audience are much louder.

At the end of the timeout, Yokohama Six Stick Commander Fukuda Nagasho waved his bat and made a short stroke, allowing Seido catcher Kentaro Matsuda to make a pre-emptive signal to the other Seido garrison.

"Whew!"

"Bang!"

“ball.“

"Whew!"

"Bang!"

“ball.“

……

"Whew!"

"Bang!"

“ball.“

Yagami threw eight balls in a row, sending Yokohama's six bats Nagamasa Fukuda and seven bats Yasumasa Takagi to base, and at the same time, he also sent Kenye Sato, a runner at second base, back to home plate and lost another point.

After that, Yagami Yagami adjusted his form back and knocked out Yokohama hitters Hachikaku Kawakaku and Kazuki Echizen with three strikeouts, leaving two remnants and ending the fifth inning.

In the sixth and seventh innings, Yokohama changed pitchers, and Nishijima, a third-year player, pitched the ball on the board. In the face of the outbreak of Qingdao's line, Nishijima first lost one point in the sixth game, and then three points in the seventh game, so that the score between Qingdao and Yokohama was changed to 5:9.

In the eighth inning, Jinguji, who had been re-converted from a third baseman to a pitcher, scored three outs at the cost of losing one point, ending the eighth inning.

"Well voted! Jinguji. ”

"Leave it to us!"

"We'll definitely get the score back!".

The guards who ran back to the rest area said to their ace Jingujiichi.

Jinguji smiled at them, picked up the protective gear next to him and handed it to the players who were about to go on the field to strike, three sticks Fujii Takashi and four sticks Dong Kiyokuni.
