Chapter 198: Qingdao vs City Junior (Eighteen)
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Manaka wants to wave his arm and throw a ball in the middle of the outside corner that looks a little outward, and the hitter Dong Qingguo was going to observe it first, plus the first ball he faced was such a ball that looked like a bad ball, so he naturally didn't want to swing the bat to strike.
“good shot.“
Dong Qingguo moved his feet sideways, grabbed the bat with both hands and swung it vigorously twice, and re-made the posture of waiting for the blow.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Manaka continued to swing his arm and throw a ball from the outside corner of the corner, but Dong Kiyokook still didn't swing his bat to strike.
“bad shot.“ The presiding judge spoke up to make his own decision
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Dong Kiyokook swung his bat and hit the outside corner mid-position ball that Manaka was about to throw his arm, and the baseball that he hit with his bat bounced to the edge of the sand in front of the home plate side (right shot), and then flew towards the infield area near the second base side.
Shortstop Ikuya Araki bent over to catch the bouncing baseball in a crouching position, then immediately got up and stepped to pass the ball to first base.
"Smack!"
First baseman Yohei Tanaka stretched out his left hand and opened his case to catch the baseball passed by the shortstop, and the hitter Dong Kiyokuni ran to the sand in front of the base bag at this time, and then stepped over the base bag of first base.
“retire.“ The first base judge raised his right hand and accompanied the defender to get the last out, announcing the end of the bottom half of the fifth inning.
"Three outs, offense and defense exchange."
There was a short halftime break at the end of the fifth inning, with some of the court staff drawing sidelines on home plate and the edge of the infield, while others sprayed water into the sand.
"Let's go!"
After the staff left the arena, the Qingdao people rushed to the field under the leadership of Dong Qingguo and began to prepare for the game.
"In the first half of the sixth inning, the attack of the city's three major universities, nine bats, pitchers, and true kings."
After the defenders on the field are ready, Manaka steps into the hitting area to the sound of the announcement, swings the bat, and then raises it high in the air to make a gesture of waiting for the blow.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Faced with a quick straight ball from the inside corner with a wave of his arm thrown by Jinguji, by the time Manaka was about to react and swing the bat out a little distance, Chris's open ball sleeve had already caught the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound into it.
“good shot.“
After the catcher got up and passed the baseball back to the pitcher, Manaka held the bat with both hands and waved it, holding the bat high and re-making the posture of waiting for the hit.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Bang!"
Manaka wanted to aim at the pitcher's inside corner and swung his bat vigorously, but he swung the past bat and the flying baseball by a fraction of a centimeter away from each other, and while the swing missed, he also stumbled his steps because he was too hard.
“good shot.“
Jinguji caught a baseball passed back to him by Chris, bent down and pinched the magnesium powder bag behind him, and got up panting as he watched the home plate, waiting for the catcher to give his code.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
“bad shot.“
Jinguji followed the catcher's request, raised his leg and stepped forward, waved his arm to throw a bad ball in the middle of the outside corner with a little outside the way, but unfortunately did not trick the hitter into swinging the bat, and then knocked him out with three strikeouts.
After raising his hand to catch the baseball passed back by Chris, Jinguji looked at the code that the catcher compared, nodded, raised his leg and stepped forward, and threw the baseball in his hand towards home plate.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Bang!"
The pitcher waved his arm and threw a low-lying ball from the outside corner that looked like it would pass over the edge of the good zone, and when the baseball was close to home plate (board), it suddenly increased its speed and fell diagonally, and then smashed into the sand and missed.
“good shot.“
After the catcher grabbed the baseball that was ricocheting off the sand with both hands together, the referee immediately raised his right hand to signal that the pitcher's shot was a good ball.
“killed.“
After being knocked out by the opponent, Manaka walked past Chris with his head down, and then trotted back to the rest area on the side of first base with his bat.
"In the first half of the sixth game, the attack of the three major colleges and universities in the city, a stick, a guerrilla, Araki-kun."
Ikuya Araki stepped up to the left-hand zone, grabbed the bat with both hands and waved, then raised the bat in his hand upright and waited for the blow.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
“bad shot.“
While taking a step back with his right foot, Ikuku Araki quickly stopped swinging his bat, allowing Jinguji to catch the bad ball in the low position in the inner corner thrown by Jinguji smoothly with the capture of the player's ball sleeve.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
In the face of the pitcher's low ball in the inside corner that continued to swing his arm, Araki Yu still had no idea of swinging the bat to strike.
“good shot.“ The referee clenched his fist and raised his right hand, signaling that the pitcher's shot was good.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
“bad shot.“
Jinguji waved his arm and threw a low-position ball in the inner corner, but unfortunately it was a bad ball with a low path, and the hitter Araki Yu also stopped swinging the stick in time, which also made the variables disappear later.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Ikuya Araki hit an outside corner mid-position ball thrown by Jinguji with a wave of his arm, and it was a boccia ball that flew towards the infield area between second and third base.
Shortstop Taro Fukuda quickly ran to the front of the boccia course, spread his legs to the sides like an isosceles triangle, reached down with his hands in a crouching position to catch the rolling baseball, and then immediately stepped to pass the ball to first base.
"Whew!"
"Smack!"
Tetsuya Yuuki, the first baseman, stepped out with his left foot, stretched out his arm, and opened his sleeve to catch the baseball passed by the shortstop, and the hitter on the side, Iku Araki, ran over the base on first base.
“out.“ The first base judge raised his right hand to signal that the hitter was blocked by the garrison outside the base.
Taro Fukuda reached out to receive the baseball from his teammate, then raised his hand to Jinguji on the pitcher's hill and made a two-out gesture to those around him.
"In the first half of the sixth inning, the attack of the city's three major universities, the second baseman, the third baseman, and the big mae-kun."
Takahiro Ohmae stepped up to the batting area, raised his hand to straighten his batting cap, and then held the bat high with both hands and held it high before waiting for the pitcher to pitch.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Jinguji threw a ball that moved laterally from the inside corner to the middle of the outside corner with a wave of his arm, but Omachi Takahiro Ohmae did not swing his bat to strike because he was not sure how to play the ball well.
“good shot.“。
After the presiding judge raised his right hand to make the decision, Chris got down on one knee and took the baseball out of his sleeve and threw it back to the Jinguji senior on the pitcher's mound.
Takahiro Omae, who was next to him, grabbed the bat with one hand, shook it in front of him, clenched it with both hands, raised the bat high, and made a gesture of waiting for the blow again.
