"The bottom half of the seventh inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, four bats, third baseman, Dongjun ......"

After the batter raised his bat and got ready, Tanaka turned his head to look at the runner who was standing off the base, raised his leg and stepped forward, and waved his arm to throw a knuckle ball at home plate.

"Ping!"

The baseball, which fell longitudinally at a speed of 129 km/h, fell to the back of the low position in the outer corner, and was about to fall into the catcher to open his gloves forward, and was hit by the beater's bat and flew to the left.

"Smack!"

The baseball that crossed the three-game field landed on the lawn of the center-left field, and then in the forward roll, it was reached out by the left fielder Naoki Okagawa, who ran from the left field to the middle field.

"Whew!"

Naoki Okagawa, who stepped forward and waved his arms, passed the ball to home plate, but because his arm strength was not strong enough, the baseball that landed on the right side of the pitcher's mound was not caught by the catcher guarding the right hitting area when it bounced forward, so that Taro Fukuda, a runner who rushed to the base, avoided the catcher in the right hitting area and pressed his right hand on home plate without being blocked.

"Second Base Runner Successfully Returns to Home ——!!"

Shodai Tanaka, who ran from home plate to the front of the iron net, bent down to pick up the baseball that rolled all the way to the lawn, and waved his arm sideways to pass the ball to third base.

“out.“

Third baseman Tadao Mitani ended the half with a drop in one point after receiving a pass from a pitcher and touching the runner who had already run in front of him with his baseball gloves.

"Seongdo High School's fourth baton responded to the ace's wonderful pitch and scored the long-awaited score!!"

"In the second half of the seventh inning, the game finally made progress again."

"Qingdao University scored a 4th point that is crucial for both sides——"

"Komato, Komaki ace Tanaka passed the ball to third base in time, and after touching the runner, he finally suppressed the opponent's score at 1 point!"

……

"In the first half of the eighth inning, Komatomaki Komaki High School attacked, eight bats, second baseman, Yamaguchi-kun......" Seventy-six seconds after the end of the previous inning, the sound of an announcement from above the field announced the start of the next inning.

"Whew!"

When Yamaguchi was ready to raise his bat, Yagami reached forward with his right leg and waved his arm towards home plate to throw a belt-high outside corner straight ball.

"Ping!"

The baseball, which flew through the edge line at 144km/h to the back of the high corner of the corner, was hit by the bat that Yamaguchi threw out, flew out to the right, and landed in the stands on the home plate.

"Out of bounds!"

After the hitter was ready again, Yagami Yagama, who made a good first throw, waved his arm and threw a knuckle ball to home plate at a speed of 127km/h.

"Ping!"

Flying through the edge of the zone to the baseball behind the outside corner, Yamaguchi hit the bottom with his swing and flew high into the air.

"Smack!"

The baseball flying over second base was caught by the middle fielder Daiki Murasuke, who was running from left to right, in the depths of the field.

"In the first half of the eighth inning, the attack of Komakomai High School, nine sticks, substitute hits, Okada-kun, back number 13."

After the announcer finished broadcasting, Okada stopped swinging his bat and walked to the left-hand zone in front of him.

With his head down and the ground, Masahiro Okada, who was standing on the hitting zone with his legs apart, rested his bat on his left shoulder and clasped his hands together.

“play ball.“

After the referee reached out to guide the pitcher to tee off, Masahiro Okada, who turned his head to look at the pitcher, raised the bat on his left shoulder upwards and waited for the blow.

"Whew!"

Stretching forward with his right leg, Yagami waved his arm and threw a two-seam fast ball to home plate at a speed of 138km/h.

"Bang!"

The baseball flew past the hitter's thigh and was caught by a glove stretched out forward by the hand in the low inside corner.

“Strike.“

After the hitter re-prepared, Yagami stepped forward with his leg raised, flicked his arm and threw a near-belted curveball to home plate at a speed of 126km/h.

"Huh!"

A baseball that falls diagonally to the right from the side of the hitter's belt, after dodging the batter sweeping from above in the middle of the belt, catches it with a glove that is extended downward by the hand in a low position behind the outside corner.

"Bang!"

“Strike...“

With one good ball left to get out, Yagami Yagami threw a knuckle ball to home plate and smashed into the left edge of home plate at a speed of 133km/h because the ball path was low.

"Smack!"

As the catcher gets up to pick up the baseball that rolls to the left, the referee takes a new baseball out of his bag and throws it to the pitcher in front of him.

After opening his gloves to receive the referee's pass, Yagami stood on the pitcher's board, waiting for Chris to return and the hitter to get ready again.

"Bang!"

After Masahiro Okada, who was holding his bat high, re-prepared, Yagami Yagami threw a straight ball (145km/h) into home plate, which was caught by Chris's straight left hand.

“Ball...“

After the ball count was tied at 2:2, Yagami Yagami waved his arm and threw an inside finger cross ball to home plate at a speed of 130km/h.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which fell from the side of the leg, fell to the edge of the left front corner of the home plate after tricking the hitter into swinging the bat, and then hit the catcher in the chest in a bounce after landing.

“out.“

Chris got up and picked up the baseball that had rolled to front of home plate, then waved his right arm and passed the ball to first base, knocking out Masahiro Okada, who had run in front of the first baseman.

"In the first half of the eighth inning, Komato's attack from Komaki High School, one bat, third baseman, Mitani-kun ......"

When Tadao Mitani was ready to raise his bat, Yagami raised his leg and waved his arm to throw a two-seam fast ball to home plate at a speed of 141km/h.

"Ping!"

The baseball, which was speeding past from the center of the outside corner, was hit by the batter Tadao Mitani and flew to the right to the stands on the first base.

"Whew!"

When Tadao Mitani was ready to raise his bat high, Yagami stepped forward with his right leg and continued to throw a two-seam fast ball to home plate with a wave of his left hand.

"Bang!"

Without swinging the bat, the baseball, which crosses the edge line at a speed of 140 km/h, is caught by the left hand of the captor who is stretched forward behind the outside corner.

“Strike...“

With just one good ball to end the first half of the inning, Yagami did as Chris asked to lower the ball and waved his arm to shoot a low, two-seam fast ball to home plate.

"Smack!"

A baseball that flies into home plate from under the good ball area at a speed of 138 km/h close to the edge line is caught by a glove placed in front of the crotch by a hand behind the right side of home plate.

“Ball.“

After the batter was ready again, Yagami reached forward with his right foot and threw a slightly out-of-the-box knuckle ball toward home plate with his left arm.

"Huh!"

"Bang!"

A baseball that falls longitudinally at a speed of 124 km/h is caught by a glove that is outstretched downward by the hand after dodging the batter that is sweeping over.

"Empty, strikeout—"

"Three outs, offense and defense exchange!!".

……

"In the second half of the eighth inning, attacked by Seido High School, eight bats, kamofielders, and Murasuke-kun......" In the joyful expressions of the Seido support team and supporters on the third base side, and in the dead silence between the Komatoma Komaki support team and the supporters on the first base side, the game entered the second half of the eighth inning.
