Chapter 443: October (Twenty-One)

"Anyway, I can't hit the ball that is too tricky, so I can only wait for the ball to be played." Yukiichi also held his bat high and turned his head to look at Narimiya on the pitcher's mound, waiting for the blow.

"Aim for the straight ball you throw to earn a good number of balls!"

"Whew!"

"Ping!"

Mikokazu also swung his bat into the pitcher's belt-high ball, sending the baseball right through the edge line and about to fall into the catcher's glove.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which flew over the first baseman, landed on the lawn next to the right fielder's touchline, and was caught by the right fielder Kosong Naito, who ran over as it bounced deep into the outfield.

"Hit the touchline in the right field!"

"This game is also like a rainbow, and Qingdao's strong line launched a fierce attack on Daocheng Industrial Ace..."

"No one is out, the runner runs to first base!"

"Okay, good vote!" Kenta Maezono's loud voice made it clear that Miyukiichi, who was squatting next to the base bag and taking off his protective gear, could hear him clearly.

"Haha, what a good fight! I didn't play so well when I practiced. After Yukiichi handed over the armor to his teammates, he stood next to the base pack and stared at the pitcher.

"I'm sorry, Naru."

"It seems that the good fortune of the last game is still on our side."

"In the second half of the ninth inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, seven bats, pitcher, Nagumo-kun." In the announcer's announcement, Shiichi Nagumo walked from the waiting area to the hitting area with a bat in his hand.

"The next hitter is the annual pitcher who hit two hits today and created a comeback for Qingdao, Nagumo."

……

"Qingdao, who relied on Jitou to enter the decisive battle all the way, faced Daocheng Industry, which relied on the absolute trump card to enter the decisive battle." From the very beginning of the game, I saw that I was really important now, and I knew the situation on the field very well.

"If you can be here, force the ace Chenggong to play..."Although Chenggong was replaced yesterday after only eight games, it doesn't mean that he was forced out by their city junior, purely to save his strength for today's game.

"This game..."

"One point missing..."

The third-year players who watched the game knew very well that as long as Seido's line could get a point from Narimiya, the game would be over.

"If you want to break into Koshien, just grab another point from Narumiya!" Takahiro Hirakawa stood up from his seat and yelled at the Qingdao players on the field.

"Nangumo, go up!"

"Swing the stick hard!"

"Naru, let's throw the ball with all your might!"

Supporters on both sides of the audience were shouting desperately.

"Whew!"

"Ping!"

Nagumo hit a bocce ball in the direction of the second baseman with a swing of his bat, and then threw down the bat and ran towards first base.

"Yijun!" Narumiya turned his head and shouted to the second baseman.

"Smack!"

Tsubasa Hirai, the second baseman, reached out to pick up the baseball he rolled over, and then chose to pass the ball to first base without a double kill.

"Out!"

In the first baseman Yamaoka Riku receives a pass from the second baseman and blocks the runner who has already run behind him.

"No problem, no problem!"

"One solution after another!"

The Daocheng industrial players in the rest area waved their arms to cheer for the aces on the field.

"One out! One out..."

"In the second half of the ninth inning, Qingdao adopted tough tactics." Ota and Akiko turned their heads to continue the conversation with their colleagues next to them.

"If you lose a short fight, the situation will be dangerous..."Fujio Mine talked to his colleague while paying attention to the situation on the field.

"Superintendent Kataoka is expecting Nagumo to play a long fight."

"Still, it allowed the runner to advance to second base."

"That's how it is when you have the initiative... However, I'm afraid that after this headache, Qingdao Jitou Nanyun has no sign of being attacked, and he can't keep up with his pitching until now. ”

"Will Seido play for the sake of scoring? Or..."

……

"Come on, Cheng Gong!"

"Hit, Hakushu!"

When Ichiro Sakai hit the runner to go to base with a batting sacrifice, catcher Masako Harada asked the pitcher who received the ball to pass the ball to third base, and after knocking runner Yukiichi out of the game, both players were cheering for their teammates.

"Cheng Gong, who launched a fierce attack on the nine-stick white state, has a bad and good number of balls, and has already forced the opponent to a desperate situation."

"Huh!"

"Bang!"

At the same time that the batter Kenjiro Hakushu swung his bat missed, catcher Masako Harada caught the pitcher's knuckle next to the hitter's left calf, and got the last number of outs of the game, and dragged the game into the playoff smoothly.

"Strikeout! The last ball refers to the fork ball. ”

"Ahhh The Inaki Industrial Support in the stands cheered because of the ace strikeout opponent.

"Good! Well voted! ”

"Chengmiya..."

"With someone on the base, Narimiya managed to prevent Seichi from scoring again!"

"Well done!"

"Well voted!"

"Chenggong!"

"Naruto-kun!"

"The audience gave a warm applause to the ace who threw nine rounds alone!"

……

"It's the first time I've seen him look like that..."Yukiichi Miyuki, who was changing catcher equipment on the lawn outside the rest area, also saw Narimiya's eyes for the first time.

"It doesn't seem like it's going to be that easy to win."

"Listen, the opponent will fight to the death to grab points!" Superintendent Kataoka clasped his hands in front of his chest and shouted at the players in front of him.

"Hold on to every number of outs, and don't take it lightly until the end!"

"Yes!" The Qingdao players echoed in unison.

"This year's rice is stronger than last year's, I think so."

"But you've cornered such a strong team... So take pride and self-confidence and puff up your chest! ”

……

"The Tokyo Metropolitan Government was held in the autumn and the tournament was tied at 4:4."

For the Qingdao players who returned to the field, the audience burst into warm applause.

"Don't be careless!"

"Take one out first, Nagumo!"

"Get ready for it!"

"Cheer up!"

Qingdao's support team and players shouted and cheered for their teammates on the field!

"As long as the rice is suppressed here..."

"You can decide the winner!"

"The winning team..."

"We will enter Koshien next year."

……

“... It's all about defeating Seido and let's march into Koshien-"

"Climb to the top of the country!"

Masako Harada and the others formed a circle outside the rest area and said to them.

"Winning this game makes all this sense!"

"Let's win the game and boost morale!"

"Good!!" After shouting the slogan, the crowd immediately dispersed to prepare for the next attack.

……

"Ping!"

Tsubasa Hirai swings his bat and hits a straight ball thrown by Shiichi Minamigumo and flies out to the left.

"Smack!"

After the baseball landed on the lawn in the left field, left fielder Ichiro Sakai ran over from the middle of the left field and reached out to catch the baseball bouncing on the lawn.

"Left fielder hit!"

"Go on, go on!"

"Go out and swing hard!"

After Tsubasa Hirai hit a hit, the Inagi Kogyo players in the rest area were excited.

"Ping!"

Unfortunately, the next nine was Kosong Naito, who faced the pitcher's inside corner near the knee, hit the ball on the sand in front of the left hitting area, and then bounced towards first base.
