Chapter 427: October (Friday)
"Then I'll leave first... Overseer, good night. Koichiro Tanba said and turned to leave.
"Those kids are sure all," Takashima sighed as he looked at Tanba, who turned to leave.
"Very good!!"
……
October 28th, 9:50 a.m., Meiji Jinguno Stadium.
"There are so many viewers!"
"Both games are definitely exciting..."
"Daocheng Industry and the city junior are the rivals, and this year is the first showdown." (PS: After the decline of Qingdao, the teams competing for the right to represent Nishitokyo in the summer liga qualifiers are basically the third of the city and Inagi Industries, and it makes sense to call them old enemies.) )
"Will it be Chenggong and Tianjiu who will come out to vote today?" (PS: Naru Narumiya and Mitsusei Amaku, as the best annual pitchers in the Tokyo metropolitan area, will definitely have a lot of viewers who want to see them face off.) )
"Speedball up-the-shoulder throwing left vs. up-up high-angle diagonal shoulder throwing right... Benge pitcher showdown! (Nippon Nokyu likes to use the term "Bengue" to describe pitchers who are fast enough to get the ball fast, have steady ball control, have good suppression, have high morale, and have the atmosphere of a king, and most of the pitchers are high-pressure pitchers, and of course, three-quarters pitchers like Akuku Kosheng are also included.) )
"The autumn conference is really hot."
"Danba of Qingdao is also a good pitcher!"
"Don't forget Kimura."
……
The first match of Daocheng Industrial vs City University junior started on time at 10 o'clock in the afternoon.
The third year of the city university was first boarded by the Amahisa Guangsheng, which was a decision made by Superintendent Tahara in order to grow up as soon as possible as a genius. Daocheng Industrial's side was first boarded by the ace Chenggong Mingfa.
As an annual pitcher with the shortcomings of an unstable start, Narimiya Ming, who had the problem of losing control and throwing out of control, was beaten by the third day of the city university to score three points in a row and reverse the score when Tianjiu Guangsheng lost two points in the first half of the first game.
When the city junior thought that he could use this to lay the foundation for the victory, under the guidance of Inagi Industrial catcher Masako Harada, ace pitcher Narumiya quickly regained his strength and started a pitching duel with the opponent.
In the first half of the fourth game, Daocheng Industrial scored another point from Tianjiu Guangsheng and equalized the score.
In the first half of the eighth game, Tianjiu Guangsheng lost 2 points first, bringing the score to 5:3;
The two sides changed pitchers in the ninth inning and let the game enter the extended game: in the second half of the thirteenth inning, in the case of the first and third bases, and one out, the national tomo superintendent replaced the relay pitcher Yudai Iguchi, and changed to the pitcher from the one-year Keiji Hirano to the board, and then successfully got the remaining outs, ending the second half of the thirteenth inning.
In the second half of the fourteenth inning, Daocheng Industrial knocked out a home run from the hand of the third ace of the city, Zhenzhong, and overtook the score. In the second half of the next fourteen innings, the third line of the city university failed to score from Keiji Hirano, a pitcher of Inagi Industrial, and finally lost the quasi-tiebreaker 6:5.
"From the ace Chenggong to the wellhead, and then to the plain, Daocheng Industry has made a beautiful investment without losing points, so that the three lines of the city university have no way to exert their strength!"
Although the score of the two sides was deadlocked for a while, this fateful duel was finally won by Inagi Industrial by one point and advanced to the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly in the autumn.
"Thank you for the advice..."
Under the leadership of the base judges, the players of the city junior and Daocheng Industrial took off their hats and saluted each other and announced the end of the game.
More than three hours of game time made the second semi-decisive match originally scheduled to start at 12:30 have to be postponed, and it was not until 1:41 p.m. that the match between Qingdao and Didong officially began.
……
"GO GO LTE'S GO Teidong..."
"There are so many people coming to watch the game!?" In order to write the report, Owada Akiko, who went to Jingu No. 2 Court to watch the game, seemed a little surprised.
"Of course." Fellow reporter Fujifu took over the conversation and gave the reason directly.
"This is a wonderful drama that can't be seen in the Haga qualifiers, a tough duel between East Tokyo and West Tokyo!"
"GO GO LTE'S GO Emperor..."The support group of Emperor Dong was holding a shouting microphone and shouting hard to cheer for the players on the field.
"GO GO LTE'S GO Teidong..."
……
In the second half of the fifth game, when it was Qingdao's turn to defend and Didong to attack, the score of the two sides was 0:2.
"I didn't score a point until the fifth game."
"Qingdao can't get points?"
When the audience was talking about this, the Daocheng industrial players who took the lead in advancing were also watching the match between Qingdao and Didong.
"The difference is only 2 points, and Qingdao is in a hard battle!" Masako Harada is well aware of the situation on the field.
"The impregnable garrison of the Emperor's bronze wall is not so easy to break." Hideaki Yoshizawa, a two-year-old student, is well aware of the strength of the emperor.
"Anyway... Let's replace Tanba quickly. Narumiya, who was leaning on the seat, gave his opinion to his teammates.
"Huh?" Others were a little puzzled by this.
"Although the opponent can't hit his change ball, the straight ball is too unstable."
"If he is allowed to be strong, it will cause irreparable results."
"Look... The straight ball just now is dangerous! ”
"It's not easy to guide him, right?"
"Naru, I said before, you underestimate Tanbo too much." Masako Harada crossed his hands in front of his chest, stared at the situation on the court, and said to the ace behind him.
"He's changed and doesn't put nervousness on his face as easily as he used to."
"After the injuries of our biggest rivals, Yagami and Takigawa, he took the growth and stood on the field with the team as an ace."
"Ah!!h After striking out Teto's hitters, Koichiro Tanba shouted desperately on the pitcher's mound.
"The ace is roaring!"
"Tenba-senpai..."
"Good shot!"
"Okay!"
The Qingdao support group in the stands also shouted.
"Qingdao ace Tanba-kun also let us see a rather imposing pitch in this game!"
"There's always a limit to momentum alone." Narumiya got up and walked over to the audience passage next to him.
"I'm going to buy juice..."
"Oh, escaped," Hideaki Yoshizawa quipped behind him.
"Wait a minute, Naru!" Tsubasa Hirai hurriedly shouted to the trump card that was gradually moving away.
……
"Considering Tanba's level of fatigue, it's best to be able to tell the winner in this game." Although Chris is unable to play due to injury, he knows more about the pitchers on the field than the catchers on the field.
"Nagumo, go wave the stick to warm up." Superintendent Kataoka began to prepare for the switch.
"Every chance I get, I'll let you play eight bats."
"Yes!" Nanyun replied loudly.
"In addition to that, let Kimura prepare as well."
