Is it a good ball?

Kugayama looked at the referee in surprise, and then quickly withdrew his gaze.

Chris glanced at Kugayama, who had re-astruck the Kokugakuin in front of him, and gave a secret signal to Yagami Yagami on the pitcher's hill.

Yagami nodded, turned the baseball with his left hand behind his back, and threw the baseball according to the code given to him by Chris.

"Whew!"

What?! Guoxue Jiu My Mountain's pupils shrank suddenly, and he took a step back under the instinctive drive.

"Bang!"

The original path of the ball was almost a bad ball flying past the hitter's chest, but as the ball continued to move, the bad ball turned into a good ball and smoothly crossed the edge of the good ball area, and was caught by Chris's open ball sleeve.

With a speed of 145 km/h, this is a two-seam fast ball in the high corner of the corner.

“Strike.“

After careful observation, the referee raised his arms again.

Kokugakuyama took a step back under the instinct of the bat, causing him to be unable to see the subsequent changes in the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound, and also made him puzzled by the referee's decision, and looked at the referee more obviously than before.

"Any questions?" The referee noticed the beater's gaze that seemed to be rather dissatisfied, and looked over.

"No, nothing." Kokugakuin Kugayama shook his head, waved the bat in his hand a few times, put on a posture of waiting for the blow, and turned his head to look at Yagami Yagami on the pitcher's hill.

The referee's eyes were really good, the first ball flew close to the corner of the good ball area, and the second ball flew into the good ball area through displacement from the original bad ball area and crossed the edge.

After a long period of recuperation, he was indeed much more aggressive than before, and he watched Kunigaku, who had clearly stepped back from the batting area, take a stick to Yagami Yagami on the pitcher's hill to ask for the ball again.

"Whew!"

The baseball flew off the pitcher's mound and headed straight for home plate.

The ball was too far off the corner, right? Should it be a bad ball? No, it could be another good ball that flew over the edge of the good zone.

Kokugakuin looked at the baseball speeding from the pitcher's hill, and waved the bat in his hand in hesitation, but unfortunately the timing of the swing was too late, and as soon as his bat was waved, the baseball had already galloped past.

"Bang!"

Chris moved his ball sleeve and reached for the baseball that was speeding from the pitcher's mound.

“Strike out.“

This original bad ball successfully deceived the National Academy Kugayama to swing the bat.

"One out, one out." Chris stood up, took the baseball out of his sleeve and passed it back to Yagami on the pitcher's mound, then made a gesture to the rest of the guard.

"Yagami, well done!"

"Go on, let them go up and down three times!"

"Come on!"

The support group is cheering for the players on the field.

Kugayama waved his bat in annoyance, then turned around and left the field, and when he met the second batter who was about to hit the field, he whispered: "I'm sorry, I'm a batter, but I didn't try anything from the opponent's pitcher." ”

"It doesn't matter, this is the first round, just familiarize yourself with their game." The second stick was comforted.

After speaking, he walked to the left shot area, stood up and spun around with the bat, then held it and put on a posture waiting for the blow.

"Whew!"

As Yagami's arm flicked down, the white baseball flew towards home plate like a white light.

"Huh!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Kugayama Batter of the National Academy waved the metal bat in his hand, and the bat that he quickly swung out made an afterimage above the home plate.

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, his swing missed, and the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound flew over home plate and landed in the holster set by Blue Catcher Chris.

“Nice pitch.“

Whether it was the second or third bats of Kokugayama Academy, Yagami Ye, with the cooperation of Chris, threw several balls that were not easy to play, so that they were picked up and killed by their own teammates, and won three out of the second half of the first game.

……

In the fourth game, after Qingdao took the lead in breaking the deadlock and scoring, Superintendent Kataoka decided to let Koichiro Tanba play as a follow-up to see the situation, and even Masuko Toru and Hiroshi Ota, who often sit on the cold bench in the game, he intended to let the opponent play on the court.

In the round of 16, those who can stay are basically some powerful teams, and it is very difficult to win the game as easily as before, and the later games will become more and more difficult.

So in this four-round battle against Kugayama of the National Academy, if he could, Superintendent Kataoka didn't mind letting a few substitutes go up and try it out in the last two or three innings.

It was under such circumstances that Yagami was replaced by Superintendent Kataoka for the pitcher, and Koichiro Tanba of the same grade was replaced with a pitcher.

Chris as a catcher ran to the pitcher's mound and chatted with him after Koichiro Tanba was replaced by Superintendent Kataoka, and then returned to the back of home plate to re-squat after he was replaced.

Tamba, throw a straight ball first. After Chris finished the code and straightened the ball cover, he asked Koichiro Tanba to throw a few practice balls to find a feeling first.

Koichiro Tanba nodded vigorously, looking quite excited, and of course, after all, he had dreamed of forming a shooting partner with Chris in the game for a long time. In this way, how can you not be excited after your dreams have been realized?

"Whew!"

"Bang!"

“Nice pitch.“

Chris got up and took out the baseball from the ball sleeve and passed it back to Koichiro Tanba, although his straight ball speed is less than 140km/h, and the ball is sweet, but Tanba is not a pitcher who is good at throwing straight balls and fast balls, and his curved and rising balls are the kind of balls that can be satisfied.

After throwing a few shots back and forth, Chris signaled to the referee that the game could be restarted, and when the Kokugakuyama hitter stepped into the batting area and stood up, he signaled to Dambobi on the pitcher's mound and spread his sleeve.

……

"Ah, the flying baseball has been knocked out! Qingdao got a first-year player in exchange for a hit, and he successfully knocked out a hit. ”

"It's a good level to send runners on third base back to home plate to score!"

"He's got a stick behind him, and Fukuda's striking level is okay, maybe he can continue to score."

Taro Fukuda gently waved the metal bat in his hand and turned his head to look at the Kugayama pitcher of the National Academy on the pitcher's hill.
