"Bang!"

The first ball is a fast, straight ball with four seams at a speed of 135 km/h, which gallops past the hitter's thigh and is caught by the left hand that the victim extends forward.

“Strike.“

Nagumo Shiichi, who is not hiding his strength, forces the hitter Katsuyuki Shirakawa into the embarrassing situation of the second best ball with a fast straight ball and a slow straight ball, and continues to aim for the variable speed ball that is now difficult to lock... or to focus on throw-in entanglement, which has become a dilemma in front of him.

"If you miss the shot, the hitter is out!"

……

"Good shot! Strikeouts, batsman out! ”

……

"In the first half of the eighth inning, the attack of Inagi Industry, four sticks, Harada-kun."

In the face of the center line, in order to avoid accidents and lose points, Miyuichi changed the decisive ball from a speed-changing ball to a two-seam fast ball, and only kept the curved ball that was still unstable in possession.

"Good shot! Strikeout! ”

"In the first half of the eighth game, Daocheng Industry didn't score a point."

"Qingdao pitcher Nan Yunjun let the opponent's center hit the line three up and three down, and got 4 strikeouts in a row!"

"Nangumo, good vote!"

"It's too strong! Nagumo! ”

Minamigumo Seiichi, who returned to the rest area with catcher Yukiichi Mikoichi, was welcomed and praised by everyone.

"Four strikeouts in less than two rounds!"

Harada, who has such a serious expression... It's the first time I've seen it! ”

"Well done!"

"Ahh

"That's it!" Kuroza Naoya asked Nagumo to stop playing with Kuramochi immediately, and took out his gauntlet to help him change his equipment with Kusunoki senior.

"Soon you're going to be on the field."

"Hurry up and get ready!"

With the help of his teammates, Shiichi Nagumo, who quickly changed his equipment, took out his bat from the frame, turned around and walked towards the waiting area.

"I'm going to bite it!"

"Don't just get out of the game!"

……

"Bang!" Masako Harada reached forward and caught the baseball thrown by the ace.

"Naruto, last ball."

Standing up and taking the baseball out of his glove, Masako Harada raised his hand to pass the ball back to the ace.

"Don't overthink it, Naru."

"Change the mood."

First baseman Riku Yamaoka and second baseman Tsubasa Hirai were both using their own methods to calm the pitcher's mood and try to avoid accidents, and then the opponent took the opportunity to overtake.

"Take a deep breath." Shortstop Katsuyuki Shirakawa said to the ace who caught the catcher's pass.

"I'm annoyed, I know!" Cheng Gongming said in a very fierce tone.

"It's a little bit bad..."

"I've been attacking like that, but after five games, I still haven't scored a point."

"Naruto's pitches are going to exceed 100..."

When Masako Harada was thinking nonsense there alone, the announcer's voice resounded over the court: "In the second half of the eighth inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, seven bats, pitcher, Nagumo-kun." ”

Masako Harada glanced at the batter standing on the batting area, and then gestured to the pitcher with his eyes: "He hit your ball last time... Don't be careless, Naru. ”

"Hmph, how could I be careless?"

Standing on the pitcher's board, Narumiya raised his hands above his head, raised his right leg and stepped forward, and his left arm swung out from the back to the front.

"I hate it so much!"

"Whew!"

"Ping!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Nagumo Shi swung his bat on the first ball and collided with the opponent's ace throwing a diagonal straight ball from the near belt to his inner corner.

"Out of bounds!"

The baseball, which was hit at the bottom by the bat, went forward past the catcher and the referee and landed on the off-field lawn.

"Bad ball!"

Faced with a low straight ball in the outer corner, Shiichi Nagumo raised the bat high and maintained his original posture.

"Smack!"

Nagumo hits the top of the pitcher's baseball with a swing of the bat, causing it to smash backwards into the net.

"Out of bounds!"

"Two good balls and one bad ball, the hitter is quickly forced into an embarrassment."

……

"Damn! This kid..."Narumi Cheng reached out to catch the new baseball passed to him by the chief judge, and stared at Nagumo with vicious eyes for a long time while stepping back to the pitcher's board.

"There's enough to pester!"

"Chengmiya... He's trying to get rid of me! Keeping sensitive, Shiichi Nagumo, who was standing on the batting area with his bat held high, quickly noticed the change in his opponent's mood.

"Whew!"

Narumiya, who was standing sideways on the pitcher's board, stepped forward with his leg raised, flicked his arm and threw a knee-high straight ball toward home plate.

"Ping!"

The baseball, which crossed the edge line, was hit by Minami Yunseichi, a left-footed bat-swinging hitter.

"Huh!?" A surprised Narumi stretched out his left hand to catch the baseball flying by, but unfortunately he couldn't.

"Smack!"

The baseball hit by the victim flew over second base without being blocked, and then landed on the field lawn behind the base pack.

"Straight ball from the outside corner, hit it directly!"

"Nagumo strikes a midfielder who flies through the second game to hit a front!"

"Good!" The Qingdao players who stayed in the rest area on the third base side were cheering on Nagumo's hit.

"In the second half of the eighth round, has Qingdao University finally opened a breakthrough in counterattack?"

"Damn!" Narumiya kicked the ground with his left foot before he calmed himself down again.

"It must have been! Don't overthink it. ”

"One Shot!"

"Change the mood!"

The Inagi players who stayed in the rest area on the first base side were shouting for the pitchers to calm down.

"In the second half of the eighth inning, the attack of Seido High School, eight bats, left fielder, Sakai-kun."

Ichiro Sakai, who came on the court right after, followed Supervisor Kataoka's instructions and sent Nagumo to second base with a batting sacrifice.

"Successful home run!"

"One out, there's someone on second base."

"The trail steadily sent the runner to the next base."

"It's still three points away, but it's finally a good shot." Ota and Akiko said to their colleagues while observing the situation on the field.

"Hmm!" Nodding, Feng Fujio, who crossed his hands in front of his chest, spoke: "Moreover, the previous strikeout on the center of Inami obviously changed the form of the field. ”

"Whew!"

When the batter raised the bat and turned his head to look at him, Narumiya turned his head and glanced at the runner at second base, stretched forward his right leg, and waved his left arm to throw the baseball in his palm at home plate.

"Ping!"

Kenjiro Hakushu swung his bat and hit the inside corner belt high straight ball and swept it out to the right.

"Smack!"

At the same time as the baseball flying from home plate hit the infield lawn, second baseman Tsubasa Hirai ran forward, but unfortunately just as he reached out to catch the baseball that bounced upwards after landing...

"Missed!"

The bounced baseball collided with the edge of the glove before flying high above his head and landing on the lawn in the right field.

"Nine sticks, Baizhou, the first ball is out!"

"It feels good to start..."Runner Shiichi Nagumo immediately sprinted to third base after hearing the sound of the ball hitting the ground, regardless of how the ball hit.

"Hirai!"

Right fielder Kosong Naito, who ran out of the middle of the right field, reached out and picked up the baseball that rolled towards him, stepped forward and waved his arm, passing the ball to the second baseman in front of him, who then passed the ball to the catcher.

"Okay-".

"Why did they all start swinging their sticks decisively all at once?" With this question in mind, Masado Harada glanced at the runner who was sprinting to home plate, reached forward with his left hand and opened his glove, waiting for Hirai's pass.

"Enough distance - it can really stop killing!"
