Chapter 281: Qingdao Road vs Toyo Oeji (14)

"In the second half of the fifth game, the attack of Qingdao High School, six sticks, Chinese and foreign fielders, Murasuke-kun."

Murasuke swept the ground with his feet before he stood on the batting area, swung forward with his bat in both hands, turned his head to look at the pitcher on the pitcher's mound, and then raised the bat to wait for his pitch.

"Whew!"

Fei Shixin also raised his right leg, stepped forward, pushed his left foot back, and swung his left hand behind him forward, throwing a good ball that moved diagonally from the middle of the non-good zone over the good plate above the home plate, and fell down to the top of the hitter's right leg at a speed of 112km/h.

"Bang!"

With the batter not swinging the bat, catcher Shinichiro Mizuta opened his sleeve downward to grab the baseball that was about to touch the hitter's right leg.

"Whew!"

Fei Shixin also continued to throw a stretch ball diagonally from the middle of the non-good zone into the low inside corner at a speed of 113km/h.

"Huh!"

Hitter Murasuke Taiki swung his bat at the low inside corner and swept over the diagonally falling baseball, leaving the two sides close to each other.

"Bang!"

After the batter swept over the baseball, Shinichiro Mizuta opened his case and grabbed the baseball that fell diagonally.

“Strike.“ The presiding judge clenched his right hand into a fist and raised it to signal that the hitter had missed the shot.

"Whew!"

The pitcher swings his arm toward home plate and throws a high slide ball that moves laterally through the good ball area at a speed of 125 km/h.

"Huh!"

Murasuke threw the bat he was holding out and hit the baseball that had just moved laterally out of the high position of the inner corner, causing it to fly high in the collision with the bat.

"Ping!"

The baseball, which was sent flying high by his swing, flew backwards out of bounds and landed in the home plate audience behind the officiator.

"Out of bounds!"

Pitcher Fei Shixin also threw a low-lying slider to home plate at 133km/h.

"Whew!"

When facing a baseball that was moving laterally from behind home plate, Daiki Murasuke had no intention of swinging the bat, and kept his posture of waiting for the strike, allowing catcher Shinichiro Mizuta to open his sleeve outward without hindrance and catch the baseball that was moving laterally.

"Bang!"

The speed of the ball is too fast, not only does the amount of lateral change of the ball be reduced, but the time of change is also delayed.

(PS: Don't think it's strange here, although a slider with a ball speed of 133km/h is normal for Yagami Yagami, it doesn't mean that it is also ordinary for other pitchers.) )

"Whew!"

After the adjustment, Fei Shixin also waved his arm to the home plate and threw a slider that was moved laterally to the high position of the inside corner at a speed of 130km/h.

"Huh!"

Murasuke swung his bat vigorously and hit the pitcher's baseball, sending it flying high above the infield touchline.

"Ping!"

The baseball, which flew high above the sideline, turned to the left and then fell into the spectator stand next to the rest area on the third base side, chased by catcher Shinichiro Mizuta.

Fei Shixin also reached out to take the new baseball passed to him by the chief judge, turned around and walked back to the pitcher's board, and after a few spins of the baseball in his hand, looked up at home plate.

He tucked his left hand into the ball sleeve, looked at the catcher's code at home plate, nodded and stood sideways, stepped forward with his leg raised, waved his arm, and threw a special slide ball that moved laterally from a low position to the home plate, and a slight diagonal change would appear, with a ball speed of 120km/h.

"Whew!"

"Huh!"

After the pitcher's baseball moves laterally to the low position area of the outside corner, it begins to change diagonally slightly, causing the baseball that hitter Murasuke Taiki swings towards the middle low position area and the baseball that falls diagonally at a very small distance.

"Bang!"

When the batter was facing the pitcher's mound because he was swinging the batter too hard, Shinichiro Mizuta's ball sleeve on the sand just caught the baseball that was moving diagonally.

“Strike out.“

When the presiding judge raised his right hand to make a ruling, Shinichiro Mizuta hurriedly got up and wanted to pass the baseball he had just received to first base, but the problem was that the hitter next to him, Daiki Murasuke, didn't want to run to first base at all.

Unlike the eagerness of the catcher, he stood on the batting area with the bat in his left hand, first glanced at the pitcher on the pitcher's mound, then turned his head to look at the catcher next to him, and finally turned unhurriedly and walked back to the rest area on the third base.

"In the second half of the fifth inning, the attack of Seido High School, seven sticks, right fielder, Ota-kun."

When hitter Hiroshi Ota raised his bat and turned his head to look at him, Hishi Shin also raised his right foot and stepped forward, and his left hand holding the baseball swung out from the back to the front to throw a slider that moved laterally to the edge of the low inside corner to the home plate, with a speed of 126 km/h.

"Bang!"

When the hitter puts down his left foot, which has been raised, and chooses to stop the action of throwing the bat out, catcher Shinichiro Mizuta opens the ball sleeve outward to catch the baseball that has been moving horizontally.

“good shot.“

After the presiding judge raised his right hand to make a ruling, Hiroshi Ota, a Seido hitter, stomped the ground with his left foot, waved the bat with his left hand, and after turning his head to look at the pitcher on the pitcher's mound, he grasped the bat with both hands and raised it upright.

"Whew!"

"Boom!"

Pitcher Tohishi Shin also swung a bad ball that landed directly on the left zone, and catcher Shinichiro Mizuda got up and ran forward, bending down to pick up the baseball on the ground and throw it back to the pitcher.

"Whew!"

The pitcher waved his arm toward home plate and threw a slider that moved laterally to the low inside corner at a speed of 122 km/h.

"Huh!"

Hiroshi Ota swept the bat in his hand towards the low position area in the inner corner, and flew the baseball that had been displaced laterally.

"Ping!"

The baseball that was swung by the batter sped over third base, and when it flew into the off-field area outside the left field, it began to lose altitude and finally smashed into the fence in front of the stands.

"Out of bounds!" The third base judge stands on the sideline at the junction of the inner and outer fields, with his palms open forward and his hands raised upwards, signaling to the offensive and defensive sides that the ball is a throw-in.

"Whew!"

Fei Shixin also waved his arm to the home plate and threw a special slider that first moved laterally and then diagonally upward, with a ball speed of 132km/h.

"Bang!"

Catcher Shinichiro Mizuta got up and reached for the ball to the outside corner, grabbing the baseball that had moved diagonally up to the high position of the outside corner, while the hitter Hiroshi Ota had stopped his attempt to continue swinging the bat and stopped the bat in front of his left arm that reached out to catch the baseball.

“bad shot.“

The referee walked to the left base, stretched out his hand to the first base judge in front of him to question, and the first base judge, who was standing behind the first base, faced the question of the chief judge and the catcher, and directly raised his hands to signal to them that the hitter's swing did not exceed the boundary, and he could not be counted as a miss.
