Chapter 288: Qingdao vs Toyo Oeji (21)

Ryota Miyake took the bat from his teammates and walked back to the right-hand zone to stand.

He tapped the bat with his left hand and tapped the ground, resting it on his right shoulder, turning his head to look at the pitcher's mound as he put his right hand on it, then raised the bat with both hands and waited for the blow.

"Whew!"

Yagami Yagami swung his arm and threw a high-speed slider near his knee to home plate at a speed of 141 km/h when the hitter was ready.

"Bang!"

Yukiichi also spread the ball behind the hitter's right leg to catch the baseball thrown by Yagami senpai.

“bad shot.“ The baseball was judged bad because it did not pass through the good ball area when it was moved laterally.

Yagami raised his leg and stride, grabbed the baseball with his left hand and extended it backwards from the cover of his right hand, and while twisting his waist and abdomen, he swung his arm forward and threw a near-knee quick ball towards home plate.

"Whew!"

At a speed of 145 km/h, when flying from the pitcher's mound to a non-good zone slightly outside the low position of the outside corner, it began to move inward laterally, and when it moved behind home plate in a slight diagonal downward variation, the ball sleeve opened by the catcher Miyukiya caught in front of the hitter's right calf.

"Bang!"

“good shot.“ When the presiding judge raised his right hand to make a decision, Yukiichi also stood up and took out the baseball from his ball cover and threw it back to Yagami.

Yagami opened the ball cover to catch the baseball passed by Miyuki, raised his hand to straighten the ball cap, grabbed the magnesium powder bag next to him sideways and pinched it, threw down the powder bag and took out the baseball from the ball cover, turned forward and faced the home plate again, looked at the catcher's code and nodded.

"Whew!"

He threw a knee high-speed ball into home plate, and when it flew from the pitcher's mound to the top of the left hitting area at a speed of 146 km/h, it made a slight lateral change inward, causing the baseball he threw to move from the non-good ball to the good ball area.

"Bang!"

The baseball, which was hurtling from the pitcher's mound, was caught by the jacket that was opened forward by the receiver Yukiichi as it flew to the edge of the zone.

“bad shot.“

In the case of the referee's strict penalty for the corner of the good ball area, the number of balls after the ball is judged bad is two good and three bad balls.

"Whew!"

Yagami threw a knuckle ball into home plate with a speed of 128 km/h.

"Huh!"

As the batter swept past home plate, Koichi also extended his sleeve toward the left hitting area, grabbing the longitudinally falling baseball into the sleeve before it was about to hit the ground.

"Bang!"

“Strike out.“ The presiding judge clenched his right hand into a fist and raised it upwards to signal that the hitter was knocked out.

"Three outs, offense and defense exchange."

Yagami smiled and ran back from the pitcher's mound to the rest area on the third base.

"Smack......

Reaching out to high-five the seniors who were staying outside the lounge area, he then took off the pitcher's sleeve and cap on his right hand, and walked into the lounge area with Chris next to him.

……

"Whew!"

"Boom!"

When Hiroshi Ota raised his bat and turned his head to look at him, Kan Shin threw a stretch ball that smashed into the right side of the home plate at home plate with a speed of 116 km/h.

“bad shot.“

Hiroshi Ota, a seven-star baseman, glanced sideways at the rest area on the third base, then stood up on the batting area again, waved the bat with his left hand, and while turning his head to look at the pitcher's mound, he grabbed the bat with both hands and lifted it up.

"Whew!"

Qianzhen threw a belt-high special slider to home plate with a speed of 129km/h.

"Bang!"

Shinichiro Mizuta opened the ball sleeve and grabbed it in time, and by moving diagonally upward, he was rushing towards the baseball of the hitter's right arm.

“bad shot.“

"Whew!"

Catcher Shinichiro Mizuta moves the ball sleeve upwards and catches the slider that has been displaced laterally at a speed of 130 km/h to the rear of the high position area in the outer corner.

"Bang!"

With three bad balls, Qianzhenda continued to throw slippery balls at home plate at a speed of 126km/h.

"Bang!"

Shinichiro Mizuta moves the case inward and catches the baseball that has moved laterally from behind home plate in front of the hitter's right calf knee.

“Base on Balls.“

Hiroshi Ota turned around and walked to the side, put down the bat in his hand, reached out and took off the gauntlet at the elbow of his left hand, and then turned around and ran towards first base under the instructions of the chief judge.

"In the second half of the seventh inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, eight bats, pitcher, Yagami-kun."

Yagami stood on the batting area with his legs outstretched, grabbed the bat with his left hand and shook it under him, turned his head to look at the pitcher on the pitcher's mound, and leaned the bat on his right shoulder with both hands.

"Whew!"

Qianzhen threw a belt-high slider to home plate with a speed of 129km/h.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which was about to turn and move laterally towards home plate, flew above the home plate when it collided with the bat's short grip and the catcher's outstretched ball cover to form a defensive line and smashed down on the home plate.

"Out of bounds!"

As the baseball bounced off home plate to Yagami's right calf and fell back to the ground, the referee walked from behind the catcher to the left zone and raised his hands upwards to signal the ball to be a throw-in.

"Whew!"

Just as the batter continued to hold the short bat and prepare to strike, Qianzhen swung his arm and threw a slider near the knee at home plate at a speed of 127km/h.

"Bang!"

Shinichiro Mizuta spreads his sleeve forward and traps the pitcher's baseball into the sleeve when it moves laterally to the edge of the corner of the good ball zone.

“Strike out.“

When the officiator raised his right hand to make a decision, Shinichiro Mizuta stood up and took the baseball out of his case, raised his right hand to look at the baseball in his hand before throwing it back to the pitcher.

Qianzhen took the baseball passed back to him by the catcher sideways, and stepped back to the pitcher to stand.

Yagami continued to hold the bat short, swung it forward, and then followed the instructions given to him by Inspector Kataoka, and once again struck the pose ready to strike the sacrifice.

"Whew!"

The ball hangs high on the belt and falls diagonally down to the edge of the high corner as it grabs the sleeve of the ball reached by the hand.

"Bang!"

Faced with the pitcher's 117km/h pitch, Yagami retracted his short-gripped bat clockwise, then got up to face the pitcher's mound, and after learning that the pitcher's pitcher had thrown a bad ball, he turned his head to look at the rest area on the third base.

"Whew!"

When hitter Yagami still chose to hold the bat short and was about to strike, Kan really threw a near-knee carter ball into home plate at a speed of 133km/h.

"Ping!"

Yagami changed the way he held the bat, holding the long stick and flying the baseball that had moved slightly down to the low inside corner while moving a large lateral displacement.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which was swept to the left by Yagami Yagami's bat, fell on the sand in front of the baserun instructor's area, and then rolled diagonally onto the lawn outside the field.

"Out of bounds!" The third baseman, who was standing outside the sideline of third base, raised his hands upwards and signaled to the players around him that the ball was a throw-in.

"Whew!" Qianzhen threw a high knee slider at home plate with a swing of his arm at 126km/h.

"Ding!" Yagami holds the baseball in the short bat point that changes laterally to the low position area of the outside corner, and hits it into the sand in front of the side of home plate.

"Smack!"

Yagami yaza threw the bat forward, got up and ran forward, following the baseball that rolled forward after landing and sped towards first base.
