Chapter 152: Qingdao vs Daocheng Industry (3)
"Whew!"
Following the catcher's code, Saito waved his arm and threw a ball in the middle and low position.
"Huh!"
Murasuke Daiki swept the bat out of his hand.
"Boom!"
The baseball flying from the pitcher's mound was caught by Eisei Shirakawa's rapidly moving ball sleeve, and it almost fell to the ground again! This ball was supposed to be a bad ball, but it turned into a good ball because of the batter's swing.
“ball.”
Murasuke Taiki's swing was originally aimed at the baseball that flew from the pitcher's mound and then flew over the middle and low area, but the problem was that the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound was too low, so the batter could only stagger the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound.
"Whew!"
The baseball thrown by Yuki Saito with a wave of his arm flew over again.
"Huh!"
Murasuke stared at the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound and vigorously swung the metal bat in his hand.
"Bang!"
It was a low-lying ball from the outside corner, and the batter swung just past the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound. It can be said that even if the hitter knows that the pitchers of Inagi Industrial like some low-post areas, it is not easy to really hit.
The number of balls is now two good! The state of Inagi Industrial Ace Yuki Saito is recovering.
"Whew!"
"Smack!"
Yuki Saito swung his arm according to the code given by the catcher and threw a rare ball in the low position in the corner, but unfortunately the ball was so low that if it weren't for Shirakawa Eisai putting the ball on the ground, I am afraid that he would not have been able to catch the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound.
"Whew!"
"Ping!"
"Out of bounds!"
……
"Whew!"
"Ping!"
"Out of bounds!"
After the ball count reached two good and one bad, pitcher Yuki Saito was knocked out three throw-ins by hitter Daiki Murasuke one after another, and in addition, he threw a ball into first base because of the runner Dong Kiyokuni's stealing attempt. It can be said that Daiki Murasuke's idea has changed from knocking out hits to hitting base, to consuming as many pitches as possible for Inagi Industrial's ace.
"Whew!"
"Ping!"
As soon as Murasuke Taiki hit the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound with his bat, he sensed that something was wrong and immediately dropped his bat and started running base.
"Smack!"
The baseball that flew upside down from home base fell near second base, and before the runner at first base, Higashi Kiyokuni, had already picked up the baseball that had fallen on the ground, ending the first half of the first inning.
The defenders of Inagi Industrial cheered off the field and ran back to the rest zone at third base, where it was time for them to attack!
"In the second half of the first game, the attack of Daocheng Industrial College, a stick, a Chinese fielder, Kawanishi-kun."
After Yagami and Chris made a few simple warm-up shots, the referee immediately signaled for the second half of the first game to begin.
“Play ball.“
"Whew!"
Yagami followed the code given to him by Chris, raised his leg and waved his arms, and threw the baseball in his hand with all his might.
"Bang!"
It was a fast straight ball with a speed of 150 km/h, and when the baseball flew through the center of home plate and fell into the open sleeve of catcher Chris, Keisuke Kawanishi, a batter from Inashiro Kogyo Co., Ltd., was a beat slow to choose the timing of his swing, and he had just swept the metal bat out in his hand at this time.
“Nice pitch.“
Yagami raised his hand to catch the baseball passed back by the catcher, and then waited for Chris's match. Keisuke Kawanishi, on the other hand, swung his bat, then erected it and took a position waiting to be hit, and the bat in his hand was still drawing circles behind him, looking ready to swing it vigorously.
"Whew!"
Yagami raised his leg and waved his arm to throw a fast straight ball in the low corner area.
"Bang!"
The baseball flying from the pitcher's mound flew smoothly over the home plate and into the open sleeve of catcher Chris before a batter could react and swing the bat.
“Nice pitch.“
Yagami held the baseball in his left hand and put it hidden in the ball case, and turned the baseball in his hand while watching the code that Chris came out.
"Whew!"
Yagami nodded slightly, then raised his leg and waved his arm to throw the baseball in his hand.
"Huh!"
"Bang!"
Yagami Yagami threw a low-lying ball in the outside corner with a slightly low path, but the bat, which was swung vigorously by Keisuke Kawanishi, into the low-end area of the outside corner, missed the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound, turning the original bad ball into a good ball.
“Nice pitch.“
"What a pity! ......" In the narrator's not calm tone, Keisuke Kawanishi held the bat in his left hand and trotted back to the rest area on the third base side.
"In the second half of the first inning, the attack of Daocheng Industrial High School, the second baseman, the third baseman, Koyanagi-kun." The voice of the female announcer came again.
Inagi Industrial's second stick Koyanagi Ryumi is different from Keisuke Kawanishi, who was a left-hand hitter before, is a right-hand hitter, and his height of 1m8 also makes him more intimidating than Keisuke Kawanishi.
"Whew!"
Yagami raised his leg and waved his arm to throw a high-speed slider that didn't have a large sliding angle, sliding from the inside corner to the middle of the outside corner.
"Huh!"
"Bang!"
Because hitter Ryumi Koyanagi had a short bat, he couldn't hit such a ball at all, allowing the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound to fly smoothly over the home plate and into the open sleeve of catcher Chris.
“Nice pitch.“
A fast straight ball in a high position area in the inside corner?
Yagami nodded, raised his legs and stepped forward, following the code given by Chris, and waved his arm to throw the baseball in his hand.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Chris hurriedly reached out to catch the baseball speeding from the pitcher's mound, and Koyanagi took a small step back and didn't swing his bat at all.
“ball.”
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Chris asked Yagami for a quick straight ball in the low corner of the corner, which flew into his open sleeve before hitter Ryumi Koyanagi could react and swing his bat.
“Nice pitch.“
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
Chris asked Yagami for another low ball in the outside corner, but unfortunately the ball was low and it was a bad ball.
The number of balls is now 2 good and 2 bad.
"Whew!"
Yagami raised his leg and waved his arm to throw a ball from the outside corner.
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Because the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound was a little high, he let Koyanagi Ryumi swing the baton to hit the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound and hit the center of the ball accurately, knocking the baseball out in the direction of the outfield.
"Boom!"
By the time Seongdo's midfielder Daiki Murasuke caught the baseball on his knees and got up to make a return pass, Inagi Koyagi hitter Ryumi Koyanagi had already run to the first base.
“safe.“。
The situation on the field now is one out, one base.
PS: This match is basically based on the 88th National High School Wild Ball Player Quan Nishi-Tokyo Conference semi-finals, the match between Waseda Miyoye and Hidai Tsurugaoka. If it was the final against Nippon III a day later, then I wouldn't dare to use it casually, after all, Waseda Miyoye and their ace Yuki Saito are not in average good shape, and it will be difficult for them to lose the game reasonably.
