Chapter 250: The Three Rounds of War (7)
"In the first half of the second inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, eight bats, pitcher, Yagami-kun."
When hitter Yagami was ready, pitcher Yu Aoki threw a carter ball that moved laterally from a high position in the non-hit zone to the hit zone at a speed of 133 km/h.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Unfortunately, the pitcher's cart ball changed laterally a little later, and by the time the ball moved laterally, it was already behind home plate, and then caught in it by the captor's open ball sleeve.
“bad shot.“
Yagami held the bat in his left hand and swung it around under him, and after turning his head to look at the pitcher's mound, he put his hands on the grip and rested the bat on his right shoulder, waiting for the pitcher's pitch.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Yagami struck a 134km/h straight ball from the outside corner with a swing and flew it towards first base.
"Smack!"
The low ball from home plate flew off the infield sideline in front of first base, then landed on the sand outside the field, bouncing all the way to the lawn in front of the right field side stand.
"Out of bounds!"
Yu Aoki stood on the pitcher's mound, opened his case to take the new baseball from the referee, turned and bent down to pick up the magnesium powder bag in front of him, pinched it, and threw it back to the ground, then turned back to face home plate, waiting for the catcher to give his code.
"Whew!"
"Huh!"
"Ping!"
Yagami swung his bat again and hit a 132km/h straight ball from the outside corner of the pitcher, sending it straight to the front on the first base.
"Out of bounds!"
Yagami walked back to his original position, waved his bat in his left hand, leaned it on his right shoulder, and raised his bat up again after turning his head to look at the pitcher on the pitcher's mound. Everything is ready and waiting for the pitcher's pitch.
"Whew!"
Yu Aoki swings his arm to home plate and throws a Carter ball that moves laterally from the high and low area of the non-good zone to the good ball zone at a speed of 130 km/h.
"Huh!"
Yagami swept the bat out after aiming at the baseball that the pitcher had thrown with his arm on the pitcher's mound.
"Bang!"
The bat, swept by hitter Yagami Yagami, sped over the flying baseball, allowing catcher Takuya Akiba to grip the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound with his open sleeve.
“Strike out.“
After the presiding judge raised his right hand to make a ruling, catcher Takuya Akiba and pitcher Yu Aoki left home plate and pitcher mound and ran back to the rest area on the side of third base; Hitter Yagami was knocked out by the opponent and turned the bat with his right hand with his head down before trotting back to the rest area on the side of first base under the watchful eye of the referee.
In the second half of the second inning, Yagami Yagami fell behind everyone after changing his equipment, all the way from the rest area to the pitcher's hill.
He reached out to take the baseball passed to him from Chris, and began to warm up by passing the ball between the pitcher's mound and home plate, until the voice of the female announcer sounded over the court again: "Bottom half of the second inning, Fukui shogaku's attack, five bats, right fielder, Funayu-kun." ”
When Fukui Sho Shota Funai raised his bat on the left hitting area and turned his head to look at him, Yagami raised his leg and stepped forward, first reaching back with his left hand, then upwards and throwing the baseball in his palm towards home plate.
"Whew!"
Yagami throws a slider from the high area of the non-good zone (the position of the hitter's shoulder) to the high position of the outside corner of the non-good zone with a speed of 135 km/h.
"Bang!"
Chris spread the case upwards and moved up a little distance to catch the baseball behind home plate for a lateral change.
“bad shot.“
Chris fell to his knees with his legs and took the baseball out of his sleeve with his right hand and flung it back to the pitcher; Genta Funota swiped the ground with his left foot and gently swung the bat at his side with his right hand, and when he was done with all this and turned his head to look at the pitcher's mound, he raised the bat in his hand again.
"Whew!"
Yagami throws a wide-reach ball from the middle of the non-good zone to the mid-low zone with a speed of 118 km/h.
"Huh!"
Genta Fusuo stared at Yagami on the pitcher's mound, and after aiming at the baseball he threw with his swing arm, he swung the bat in his hand towards the middle and low position.
"Bang!"
Yagami Yagami threw a baseball that flew past the hitter's waist and fell diagonally into the low inside corner, but its diagonal change did not stop until it fell under the bat swung by the hitter and fell out of the good ball area, where Chris opened his ball sleeve and caught it.
“Strike.“
After the presiding judge raised his right hand to make a decision, Chris got to his knees with his left foot and took out a baseball from the middle of his right hand and threw it at Yagami Yagami on the pitcher's mound.
Genta took a few steps back with the bat in his left hand, and after walking back to his original position, he grabbed the bat with his left hand and waved, and when he turned his head to look at the pitcher on the head hand, he held the bat with both hands and leaned on his left shoulder before holding it upright, waiting for Yagami to pitch.
"Whew!"
Pitcher Yagami throws a wide-reach ball that falls diagonally from a low area in the non-good zone (the base of the hitter's thigh) to a low non-good zone in the outside corner at a speed of 119 km/h.
"Huh!"
Hitter Genica Ano continued to aim at the pitcher's baseball, swinging his bat hard into the low position of the outside corner.
"Bang!"
Yagami threw a baseball that swung his arm and galloped at the base of the hitter's thigh, then fell diagonally into the low corner of the corner, and was caught by Chris's downward-open sleeve as it fell out of the good ball zone near the ground.
“Strike.“
When the officiator raised his right hand to make the decision, Chris took the baseball out of the sleeve and wiped it on his pant leg before raising his hand to flick the ball back to Yagami on the pitcher's mound.
Holding the bat in his left hand and taking two steps back, Genta stood outside the hitting area and stretched his arms a few times before stepping back to his original position.
"Whew!"
When the hitter raised his bat high and turned his head to look at the pitcher's mound, Yagami threw a slider from the low area of the non-good zone (the hitter's knee) to the low zone of the outside corner with a speed of 138 km/h.
"Bang!"
The pitcher's baseball flew past the hitter's knee and began to change laterally behind home plate, eventually being caught by Chris's sleeve parallel to the sideline of the right-hitting zone.
“bad shot.“
Genta Funai looked up at Yagami Yagami on the pitcher's mound, kicked the ground with his left foot, leaned on his left shoulder with his bat in both hands, and then lifted it up again, waiting for the pitcher's pitch.
"Whew!"
Yagami shook his left hand and threw a stretch ball from the low area in the middle of the non-good zone (the base of the hitter's thigh) diagonally down to the low outside corner of the non-good zone at a speed of 123km/h.
"Huh!"
Genta still chose to swing the bat in his hand to the low and low area of the outer corner.
