Chapter 259: Three Rounds of War (16)
"Boom!"
Unfortunately, when Takashi Fujii climbed the fence, a baseball that fell from the sky hit the fence on his side, and then fell to the grass below, rolling to the right into the middle field area. (If you roll out of bounds to the left, it's a second-run hit.)
By the time he climbed off the fence and ran sideways to the right to pick up the baseball on the lawn, runner Yu Aoki had already stepped past the base bag at second base.
By the time he turned sideways to pass the ball to his nearest midfielder, Daiki Murasuke, Yu Aoki had already run more than halfway from second to third base.
When Daiki Murasuke made a sideways pass to shortstop Taro Fukuda, Yu Aoki fell straight to the ground and slid hard towards the third base bag in front of him.
"Porphyry!"
By the time Taro Fukuda received the pass, Yu Aoki had already touched the base bag at third base with his own hands.
“safe.“
When Yu Aoki got up and slapped the dirt on his body, the third base judge came over and raised his right hand to signal the runner to get on base safely.
When the third base judge went to sort out the base bag and the sideline next to the base base, Yu Aoki stood two steps away from the base bag, his hands on his knees, and his eyes were engrossed in the situation between the pitcher and home plate, ready to steal the base at any time.
"In the bottom half of the sixth inning, Fukui Shogao's attack, four bats, first baseman, Tokogawa-kun."
After the batter raised his bat and waited for the blow, Yagami took his leg forward, took out the baseball from the ball sleeve and stretched out his left hand, and while raising it upward, he quickly swung it down, throwing the baseball in his hand towards home plate.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Faced with a bad ball from the inside corner that the pitcher threw at a high angle in the book, the hitter Tomoya Tokokawa stood on the right shot area without any unnecessary movements, and after judging that the pitcher's first ball was a bad ball, he stretched out his left foot to be used as a support point for the strike, and put down the bat that he had raised high.
"Whew!"
After calming his breathing, Yagami followed the code given to him by Chris, and threw a stretch ball from the outside corner low outside the bad zone to the low inside corner with a speed of 118km/k.
"Huh!"
Tomoya Tokokawa swung the bat into the low area of the outside corner, and when Yagami looked over the pitcher's mound towards home plate, the batter swung the bat as if it was about to hit the baseball he had thrown, but unfortunately the batter suddenly swung the bat in his hand down a ball distance after making a mistake in judgment, causing the bat to sweep under the baseball that fell diagonally by just a fraction of a millimeter.
"Bang!"
Chris places the catcher's ball cover parallel to each other on the heeler's foot guard (above the ankle) and opens it upwards to allow the baseball to fall diagonally downward.
“Strike.“
As the officiator raised his right hand to make the decision, Chris got up from behind home plate and threw the baseball back to Yagami with his right hand.
"Whew!"
Yagami swings his arm forward and throws a straight ball with a low mid-high position at a speed of 145km/h.
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Tomoya Tokokawa swung his bat and flew the flying baseball to the sand in front of the right-shot area, sending it flying towards the off-field area on the third base.
"Smack!"
The baseball hit by the batter landed on the sand in the infield, then bounced directly into the baserun instructor's area where the third-base instructor was located, and then rolled out.
"Out of bounds!"
Yagami opened his sleeve to catch the new baseball passed to him by the referee, turned around and walked back to the pitcher's board, bent down and pinched the magnesium powder pack, and while looking up at home plate, he put his left hand in the sleeve of his right hand and placed it in front of his chest, waiting for the catcher to give his code.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Tomoya Tokokawa hit a low-lying ball from the outside corner thrown by the pitcher, allowing the flying baseball to bounce into the sand in front of the left hitting area in a fierce collision with the bat, and then roll all the way to the infield near second base.
"Smack!"
Yuki Tanaka, the second baseman who hurriedly flew back, stretched out his hands forward, and the baseball that rolled from the infield was just below his right hand that was stretched forward, but when his right hand pressed down to the ground, the baseball that was originally under the right hand had already rolled out of his interception range, and continued to roll forward into the lawn of the field.
“Run.“
When Nakatsukata fielder Daiki Murasuke ran from left to right to catch the baseball, which was still rolling forward, runner Yu Aoki stepped over the home plate to score the first point of the game for Fukui.
“safe.“
At the same time, the runner on the other side, Tomochi Tomokawa, also ran through the first base bag in a step, because he saw that the middle fielder had reached out to pick up the baseball that he had hit in the past, so he stopped in a hurry and wanted to continue running the base, turned around and returned to the base bag on the first base to stand up.
"In the second half of the sixth inning, Fukui Shogao's attack, five bats, right fielder, Funayu-kun."
Runner Tomoya Tokokawa walked a few steps away from the base plate, and in order to lower the center of gravity of his body, he propped his left hand on his knee, and the whole person was half-squatting, staring intently at home plate.
After stepping into the left hitting area, the hitter Zhou Shengyuantai held the bat in his right hand and waved it gently, and then directly held the short bat to make a posture of preparing to hit the sacrificial hit.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
In the face of Yagami's low straight ball (140km/h) from the outside corner, the hitter Genica Shua withdrew his short-gripped bat counterclockwise to the left, and was not prepared to strike the straight ball thrown by the pitcher.
“good shot.“
As the presiding judge raised his right hand to make a decision, Chris got up and took the baseball out of his sleeve and reached out to throw it back to Yagami.
The batter who was standing next to him, Genta Shuyu, held the bat in his right hand, stretched his arms vigorously, looked at the rest area on the side of the third base, and nodded his head lightly when he received instructions from the superintendent.
He waved the bat in his right hand, and while turning his head to look at the pitcher's mound, he held the bat in his hand again and waited for the pitcher to deliver.
"Whew!"
"Ding!"
The batter lifts the bat across the mid-position area, knocks the pitcher's straight ball (143km/h) into the inside corner and flies into the air, then falls into the off-field area behind the referee and catcher.
"Whew!"
"Ding!"
Hitter Genta Ayu Ayu again clicked the pitcher's low-lying ball from the outside corner, then immediately put down his bat, dropped it on home plate, and turned and sped towards first base.
"Whew!"
Chris got up and walked to the infield (third base) sideline, bent down to pick up the baseball that rolled to the left, and stepped to pass to first base.
"Bang!"
First baseman Tetsuya Yuuki opened his ball to catch a baseball passed to him by Chris, and blocked the runner Genica Funa, who was flying towards first base.
“out.“。
When the first base judge raised his right hand to make a ruling, Tetsuya Yuuki turned around and waved the baseball he had just received to pitcher Yagami Yagami.
The current situation in the field is that there are people on second base and two outs, and Fukui Sho equalizes the score with Qingdao 1:1.
