Tanaka, who relaxed after dealing with the beater, ran back to the rest area alone, and for him, who was deeply affected by heat illness, resting as much as possible was the best way to recover.

At the same time, on the other side of the field, Yagami Yagami stood at the entrance and exit of the rest area with Ota senior, changing equipment and rehydrating with the help of his teammates.

"Hold on to the next three innings-" Chris, who replaced Dong Qingguo as the captain and encouraged his teammates with words, shouted to everyone: "The final victory must be ours!" ”

"Good!" The others chimed in, and as for Yagami and Ota Hiroshi, who were left behind by them, they might have forgotten about it completely.

……

"In the first half of the seventh inning, attacked by Komachi Otomaki High School, five bats, left fielder, Okagawa-kun ......" A minute after the end of the sixth inning, the sound of the announcement resounded from above the court, announcing the start of the next game.

Naoki Okagawa lowered his head and tidied up the ground, waved his bat, looked up at Yagami on the pitcher's mound, leaned the bat on his right shoulder, clenched his hands, and waited for his pitch.

"Whew!"

After the hitter was ready to strike, Yagami reached forward with his right leg and waved his left arm towards home plate to throw a variable speed ball with a speed of 121 km/h.

"Bang!"

Falling down to the back of the inside corner, the baseball in front of the hitter's knee is caught by the captor's open glove.

“Strike.“

When Naoki Okagawa rested his bat on his right shoulder and turned his head to look at the pitcher, Yagami Yagami reached forward with his right foot and waved his arm to the home plate to throw a finger cross ball.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which falls forward from the left side of the hit zone, is caught under the crotch by Chris's downward glove.

“Ball.“

After the ball count was good and bad, Naoki Okagawa moved his arm while swinging his bat, looked up at the pitcher, and continued to choose to rest the bat on his right shoulder and wait for the blow.

"Whew!"

Following Crispie's code, Yagami reached for his right foot and waved his left arm toward home plate to throw a two-seam fastball.

"Ping!"

The baseball travels at 138km/h through the low corner of the corner, and just before it falls into the catcher's open glove, hitter Naoki Okagawa hits the top of the ball with a swing that causes it to bounce down onto the ground to the left of home plate.

"Smack!"

After landing, the baseball flying from home plate to first base was caught by Tetsuya Yuuki, the first baseman standing in front of first base.

“out.”

Tetsuya Yuuki changed his mind about going forward to kill the batter, turned around and walked back to the base bag, and blocked Naoki Okagawa, who had run all the way behind him amid the shouts of the base running instructor.

"In the first half of the seventh inning, Komato's attack on Komaki High School, six bats, pitcher, Tanaka-kun ......"

When the slightly pale Tanaka shodai was ready in the batting zone, Yagami reached forward with his right leg and waved his arm to shoot a straight ball with a knee in the outside corner.

"Huh!"

The baseball flew forward at a speed of 139 km/h over the edge line, and after avoiding Tanaka's bat that swept very close to the bottom of the baseball, he grabbed it with the glove that the hand had spread forward.

"Bang!"

“Strike.“

Yagami Yagami, who made a good first throw, was inspired by Chris, ready to keep up the good work, raise his legs, step, and wave his arms to throw a knee-high four-seam fast ball to home plate.

"Bang!"

Under the watchful eye of Shogun Tanaka, the pitcher's straight ball flew past the edge of the outside corner at a speed of 144 km/h, and then caught with the left hand that the receiver stretched forward.

“Strike...“

After forcing the hitter into a two-ball situation, Yagami reached out to catch the baseball passed back by Chris, turned around and grabbed the powder bag on the ground and pinched it, then got up and stood on the pitcher's board while raising his hand to blow off the excess powder.

Looking at the code and nodding, Yagami raised his leg and stepped forward, flicking his arm to the home plate to throw a knee-high four-stitch fast ball similar to the previous one.

"Ping!"

A baseball flying behind the edge line at a speed of 146 km/h will be hit by a batter Tanaka swinging his bat when it is about to catch the glove that the capsule lifts upwards.

"Out of bounds!" In a collision with a bat, the baseball flying out of the right rear fell onto the off-field lawn.

When the pitcher was ready on the pitcher's board, Tanaka lifted the bat, which he had been leaning on his right shoulder, forward, and watched the pitcher wait for the blow.

"Smack!"

Yagami's two-stitch fast ball (136 km/h) thrown at home plate fell slightly above the hitter's knee in front of the hit zone, and after galloping over the home plate, it was caught by the glove that was cushioned by the catcher Takikawa in front of his left thigh behind the edge line on the right side of home plate.

“Ball.“

With his hands on his chest, Yagami Yagami, who was standing on the pitcher's board, swung his arms and threw a four-stitch fast ball to home plate when the hitter was ready.

"Bang!"

A baseball that flew past the left side at a speed of 143 km/h was caught by a glove stretched out by the hand.

“Ball.“

After a simple adjustment, Yagami Yagami, who threw bad balls one after another, threw a finger cross ball to home plate.

"Huh!"

The baseball, which has a speed of 130 km/h, falls forward at a height higher than the hitter's knee, and after the hitter Tanaka swings the large bat from the right side, it falls down behind the home plate and the hitting area.

"Smack!"

The catcher Takikawa padded a glove in front of his crotch and grabbed the baseball that bounced off after hitting the ground.

“Strike out.“

When the catcher gets up and touches the beater standing in place, the presiding judge with his right hand raised above his head makes a downward gesture to draw the bow downward, instructing the beater and the beaten person to strike three.

Tanaka turned around and ran back to the rest area from behind the chief judge, and the announcer's voice sounded from above the court at the right time: "In the first half of the seventh inning, Komato's attack from Komakomai High School, seven sticks, substitute hit, Watanabe-kun, back number 18." ”

"Tee off!" The referee reached forward and guided the pitcher to start pitching, while hitter Junki Watanabe raised the bat that had been resting on his left shoulder upwards and turned his head to look at the pitcher.

"Whew!"

Yagami reached forward with his right leg and flicked his left hand to shoot a low, four-seam fast ball toward home plate.

"Bang!"

At a speed of 144 km/h, the baseball flew from the side of the hitter's right leg knee and flew under the good ball area over the home plate and was caught by the glove that the hand extended downwards in a low position behind the edge line of the outside corner.

“Ball.“

Junki Watanabe waved his right hand with his bat, and while lifting it upward, he clenched his hands and leaned the bat on his left shoulder, turning his head to look at the pitcher, waiting for the blow.

"Whew!"

Yagami Yagama, who stepped forward with his legs raised, waved his arms and threw an inside corner speed ball to home plate at a speed of 122km/h.

"Smack!".

The baseball, which was falling vertically, was close to the corner of the inside corner and dodged the bat, which was swept by the batter from above, and then again avoided the gloves that the catcher reached for and fell to the ground.

"Out of bounds!" After the baseball on the ground rolls forward from the catcher's crotch to the off-court area, the presiding judge standing behind the catcher raises his palms forward.
