Chapter 178: Qingdao vs Daocheng Industry (29)
"Two out!"
"And one more out!"
The Seichi defenders shouted and cheered on pitcher Jingujiichi.
The players of Daocheng Industry are constantly cheering for the eight-stick Hayashiguchi Hayabusa who is about to hit the field:
"Swing the stick with all your might!"
"Knock the ball thrown by Jinguji out of the air!"
"I'm going to get to the base!"
In anticipation of their expectations, Hayashiguchi also stepped up to the hitting area, lowered his head and leveled the ground with his left foot, waved his bat with his hands down, and then made a gesture of waiting for the blow.
Chris looked at the beater in front of him and compared his code to the Jinguji senior on the pitcher's hill.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Bang!"
In the face of Jinguji's low-pitched slider in the middle of the outside corner with a wave of his arm, Hayashiguchi's bat did not touch the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound at all.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
This time, Jinguji threw a straight ball in the middle of the inside corner with a wave of his arm, and Hayashiguchi also stepped sideways, swept the metal bat in his hand, and hit the baseball flying from the pitcher's hill.
"Smack!"
The baseball flying from the pitcher's mound was hit by the batter's swing and catapulted on the sand in front of Hayashikoya's side, and then flew towards third base.
"Third baseman!"
When Catcher Chris got up and shouted, third baseman Dong Qingguo ran to the junction of the sand and the lawn at the base plate after observing the approximate landing point of the baseball flying from home plate, and then raised his hand to catch the falling baseball.
"Whew!"
After raising his hand to receive the baseball, Dong Qingguo immediately turned sideways and stepped to pass the ball to first base.
"Smack!"
When first baseman Tetsuya Yuki opened his ball sleeve to catch the pass from the third baseman, hitter Hayashiguchi also held the ground with both hands and just flew past the first base.
“safe.“ The first base judge calmly stated his decision.
"It's full!"
"Harada-kun has a home run!"
"You have to get to base!"
Unlike the more and more tense atmosphere in the stands on the side of first base; In the stands on third base and home plate, many people had already begun to celebrate.
Masako Harada, who was waiting in the waiting area, just got up and was about to walk to home plate when he was stopped by someone shouting from behind.
"Yagongsang!" Cheng Gongming's voice suddenly became a little hoarse, and he tried to widen his eyes to keep his tears from flowing: "Okay...... Be sure to hit it out! ”
After listening to Gong Ming's "confession", Harada Masako did not look back, and after raising his right hand into a fist in response to him, he continued to walk towards home plate.
"In the second half of the thirteenth game, the attack of Daocheng Industrial College, nine sticks, on behalf of the fight, Harada-kun."
Chris looked at the hitter who was standing still in the hitting area, and he could feel Harada's determination and momentum that would never give up. After thinking carefully about the next match, he drew his code to the Jinguji senior on the pitcher's mound.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Bang!!"
Facing pitcher Jinguji swinging his arm to throw a low-post ball in the inside corner, hitter Masako Harada swung his bat and missed.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Jinguji threw a shot with a wave of his arm that was angled and caught in it by the open sleeve of the victim Chris, but the hitter Masako Harada still didn't swing the bat.
“ball.“
At the same time, Nari Gongming, the No. 15 player of Daocheng Industry, stood at the entrance and exit of the rest area on the side of the third base, clasped his hands into fists against his mouth, and prayed silently.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Masako Harada swung his bat and hit a quick through ball from the inside corner that Jinguji threw with a wave of his arm.
"Smack!"
The baseball flying from the pitcher's mound was swung into the sand in front of it by the batter, and then bounced off the sand and flew towards third base.
"Out of bounds!"
The baseball flying from home plate landed on the lawn in front of the sand at third base and rolled to the sideline of third base as a throw-in.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Faced with the outside corner slider thrown by Jinguji with a wave of his arm, Harada Masako did not swing his bat to strike as before.
“ball.“ Because it's a bad ball with a clear outside path.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Masako Harada swung his bat, swung his bat and threw a quick straight ball from the inside corner of the inner corner with a wave of his arm.
"Out of bounds!"
The baseball flying from the pitcher's mound was hit by the batter's swing and sprinted towards the stands on third base.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
"Out of bounds"
The bat that flew from the pitcher's mound was hit by the batter Masako Harada, and then flew again towards the stands on third base.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
In the face of Jinguji's mid-low ball thrown by a wave of his arm, Harada Masako maintained the action of waiting for the blow, except for turning his head to observe the path of the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound.
In the face of the bats thrown by the pitcher Jinguji with a wave of his arm, except for the obvious bad balls, the hitter Masako Harada will swing the bat and knock them out.
The problem is that Jinguji throws some not very easy balls with a wave of his arms, and even if Harada Masako swings his bat one after another to sweep the flying baseballs away, he still can't hit the base.
Two good balls and three bad balls, the increasingly anxious situation on the field also made the players of Qingdao and Daocheng Industrial become anxious.
Chris's brain is racing, what ball are you going to ask the senior of Jinguji next?
On the pitcher's mound, Jinguji once again bent down to pinch the magnesium powder packet, feeling the sensitivity of his fingertips, and then raised his hand to blow the powder on his fingers.
After doing all of the above, Jinguji looked up at home plate, waiting for the catcher's code.
Sweat was already dripping from the bare forehead of the beater, but he didn't have the heart to wipe it off at all, and after holding the bat with his right hand and spinning it a few times, he put his left hand up and made a gesture of waiting for the blow.
Jinguji nodded at the code from Chrisby, and at this last moment, he glanced at the hitter Masako Harada, who was standing still on the batting area, and then locked his eyes on the ball cover that Chris had placed, raised his legs, stepped forward, and shook his arms.
"Whew!" The baseball sped straight from the pitcher's mound to home plate.
Masako Harada stared at the path of the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound and swung the metal bat in his hand.
"Huh!"
However, when the metal bat in his hand swept past the home plate, the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound flew to home plate and landed in Chris's open ball sleeve.
"Bang!"
“Strike out.“。
"Strikeout! Qingdao High School won the last number of outs, and the score was 5:4! Seido High School won the semi-finals and will compete with the three major universities in the city for the right to represent the National Wild Ball Tournament in Nishitokyo! ”
Unlike the Qingdao players who gathered in the area from the pitcher's mound to first base to cheer after winning the game, Inagi Kogyo player Masako Harada threw away his bat directly after losing the game, first propped his hands on his knees and looked down at the sand of home plate, then knelt on his legs, and then fell to his knees, his eyes becoming redder.
