After landing, the baseball rolled all the way forward, and although it avoided the interception of third baseman Kento Tatsuda, it was picked up by shortstop Kusumoto who was squatting in front of the junction of the inner and outer fields and stretched his hands down.

"Whew!"

"Smack!"

Kusumoto stepped forward immediately after receiving the baseball, waving his arm to pass the ball to first base, but unfortunately with his arm strength, there was no way to pass the ball directly to first base, and the baseball that landed in front of first base rebounded forward on the ball sleeve that only his right foot remained on the base pack, and the whole person stepped over to this side Ryosuke Hiroi stretched out forward.

"Safe base."

After running Taro Fukuda strode past first base, the baseball, which flew high in the air in a collision with the first baseball cover, fell down on the sand between the infield sideline and the running base instructor's area.

With a smile on his face, Taro Fukuda turned and walked back to first base, bent down to take off the leg guards from his ankles, and handed them to Namiki, the base running instructor who came to help.

"In the second half of the sixth inning, Seido High School's attack, second baseman, second baseman, Tanaka-kun."

Yuki Tanaka stood on the left hitting area, waved the bat with his right hand, leaned it on his left shoulder, and after turning his head to look at the pitcher on the pitcher's mound, he held the bat with both hands and raised it upright.

"Whew!"

Takenaka's near-belt diagonal straight ball was too inward, causing it to turn to the right at a speed of 130 km/h, and when it shifted diagonally, it moved forward from the left side of the strike zone to the back of the hit zone, and finally caught it by the capturer's open sleeve above the right hit zone.

"Bang!"

“bad shot.“

After throwing two containment balls to first base to prevent the runner from getting too far away, Takamori Takenaka, who returns his attention to home plate, steps forward with his leg and throws a straight ball diagonally near the belt with his arm.

"Whew!"

"Huh!"

The pitcher's baseball flew under the batter's belt at a speed of 135 km/h, then turned right across the top of home plate and was caught by Ryohei Hashimoto's inward open ball sleeve above the right hitting area.

"Bang!"

"Good vote." After the presiding judge raised his right hand to make a decision, Ryohei Hashimoto got up and took out the baseball from the ball case, raised his hand and threw it back.

After the pitcher receives a pass from the catcher, Taro Fukuda, who is standing on the base pack, begins to leave the base, and the distance from the base is very long, and he is ready to steal the base when the pitcher throws the ball.

When the pitcher who was standing sideways was about to start pitching, he immediately turned his head and looked like he was going to run to second base.

"Whew!"

Due to the interference of the runner's attempt to pirate, Takasei Takenaka swung his arm to the home plate and threw a diagonal straight ball from the hitter's right arm at a speed of 134km/h, and was then caught by the catcher Ryohei Hashimoto with a ball sleeve.

"Bang!"

At the same time, Taro Fukuda, who had made the appearance of stealing second base, had already turned around and ran back to first base, not giving the catcher any chance to pass and kill.

"Whew!"

Following the catcher's code, Takasei Takenaka threw a near-belt slow-curl ball into home plate at a speed of 106km/h, slanting down from the hitter's belt to the right to the good-ball zone.

"Huh!"

The baseball, which fell diagonally to the corner of the good ball area, was hit by the bat, which was swung down by the hitter Yuki Tanaka, and flew high forward.

"Ping!"

Yuki Tanaka glanced up at the baseball that was flying over the pitcher's mound and was fading away, dropped the bat in his right hand, and sped towards first base.

"Smack!"

The high fly ball that the batter threw forward flew over the shortstop and second baseman, and then went straight into the middle field, and then began to lower the height, and was finally caught firmly by the raised hands of the middle fielder, Katsuto Furumiya.

“retire.“

After being caught and killed by the opponent's guard, Yuki Tanaka could only turn around and trot back to the rest area on the side of third base with Fukuda, who had already run to second base.

"Three people are out, offense and defense are exchanged."

……

"In the first half of the seventh inning, the attack of Chikuba Wakayama High School, three bats, first baseman, Hiroi-kun."

More than a minute after the end of the second half of the sixth inning, the announcer's voice sounded again from the top of the court, announcing the next Tomokushi and Ukayama hitters, and the first half of the seventh inning began.

“play ball!“ When Ryosuke Hiroi, the three-bat hitter, stands on the right hitting area with the bat resting on his right shoulder and clasping his hands, and turns his head to look at the pitcher on the pitcher's mound, the referee next to him extends his right hand forward and asks the pitcher standing on the pitcher's mound to start pitching.

"Whew!" Jinguji followed the signal given to him by Kuraza, stepped forward with his leg raised, and waved his arm to throw a low outside corner straight ball towards home plate.

"Bang!"

Without fooling the batter into swinging the bat, the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound at 142 km/h passed under the corner of the hit area and was caught firmly by the sleeve of the lap behind the board by the catcher.

"Whew!"

Jinguji threw a near-belted curveball into home plate with a wave of his arm and slid diagonally down from the top of the left hitting area to the right at a speed of 125km/h.

"Bang!"

As the batter swung the bat in front of him, Kuraza's outstretched sleeve caught the baseball that was falling along the outside of the zone.

“bad shot.“

When the catcher raised his right index point and asked the referee if the ball was a good ball, the referee walked out from behind the catcher, stretched out his right hand and pointed to the first base, and the opposite first base judge raised his hands directly to indicate that the hitter was not swinging the bat, and the pitcher's curveball was still a bad ball.

"Whew!"

After throwing a series of bad balls, Jinguji threw a near-belt slider toward home plate with a wave of his arm at a speed of 135km/h.

"Bang!"

Because of the high speed of the ball, the pitcher's baseball flew past the left side of home plate before it began to turn to the right and cross laterally behind the strike area, where it was caught in front of the batter's belt by the captor's outstretched sleeve.

"Whew!"

After Ryosuke Hiroi raised his bat high and prepared to strike again, Jingujiichi, who threw three bad balls in a row, threw his arm towards home plate and threw a straight ball near the knee that looked a little out.

"Bang!"

Naoya Kuraza spreads his case forward to catch a baseball that is flying towards him at a speed of 139km/h through the corner of the strike zone.

“good shot.“ The referee clenched his right hand into a fist and raised it upwards to indicate that the number of balls was one good and three bad.

"Whew!"

Jinguji threw a near belt-curl ball to home plate with a wave of his arm, and at a speed of 129 km/h, it shifted diagonally to the right from the top of the left hitting area.

"Huh!"

Ryosuke Hiroi swung his bat downward, and when the tip of the bat swept over the corner of the good ball area, the catcher hid the ball sleeve that Naoya stretched outwards and caught the baseball falling diagonally on the outside of the corner of the good ball area.

"Bang!"

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

"Whew!"

With two good and three bad, Jinguji continued to throw a knee high ball to home plate, moving diagonally down from the top of the left hitting area to the right at a speed of 130km/h.

"Ding!"

The baseball, which was about to fall diagonally downward, was about to fall on the sand to the left of home plate, but was struck by the bat, causing the baseball to crash forward on the sand in front of home plate in a collision with the bat, and then fly high into the air.

"Smack!"

The baseball bounced forward after falling to the ground behind the pitcher's mound, but was grabbed by the shortstop Taro Fukuda with his right hand in front of the abdomen, then stepped forward and waved his arm to first base.

“out.“

First baseman Higashi Kiyokuni, who was standing on second base, opened his case forward, caught a baseball from a shortstop in front of second base on his chest, and blocked runner Ryosuke Hiroi, who ran to his side.
