Chapter 483: Quasi-Quasi-Decisive Victory (3)

"In the second half of the first game, the attack of Sendai Ikuei High School, a stick, a foreign fielder, Hashimoto-kun, back number 8."

After the referee reached out to guide the pitcher to tee off, Hashimoto, who was standing on the left hitting area, lifted the bat that was originally resting on his left shoulder forward, staring at the pitcher and waiting for the strike.

"Whew!"

Yagami Yagami, who was standing on the pitcher's board facing home plate, leaned to the left side, then stepped with his leg up, and waved his arm to throw a belt-high slide toward home plate.

"Huh!"

Faced with a slider that moves laterally from the front of the waist to the right with a ball speed of 135 km/h, Hashimoto swept the bat out in his hand, but staggered it from below very close to the baseball.

"Bang!"

Moved laterally to the slider behind the middle high position in the outer corner, the left hand of Seido catcher Keisuke Miyauchi stretched forward firmly grasped it.

“Strike.“

On the second ball, Yagami Yagami followed the code given to him by the catcher, waved his arm and threw a belt high curve ball to home plate, but unfortunately he didn't shoot well.

"Smack!"

The curveball, which moves diagonally down from the front of the hitter's belt at a speed of 120 km/h, moves diagonally to the right behind the hit area as the hitter looks down, and then is covered by Keisuke Miyauchi's open gloves in the corner of the right hit area.

“Ball.“

In the third ball, Yagami Yagami threw a curveball to home plate again at the request of the catcher.

"Ping!"

The curveball near the waistband slid diagonally to the right at a speed of 128 km/h, and was hit by Hashimoto's sweeping bat as it moved low to the outside corner, and bounced forward onto the ground in front of the corner of home plate.

"Smack!"

After striking a bounce ball in the direction of the shortstop, hitter Hashimoto immediately shook off the bat, turned and ran towards first base.

"Smack!"

The bouncing ball, which landed again behind the pitcher's mound, was caught by shortstop Fumiya Kusunoki as it bounced into the infield.

"Out!"

Fumiya Kusunoki, who received the ball, immediately stepped forward and waved his arm to pass it to first base, blocking runner Hashimoto who had already run behind Tetsuya Yuuki, who had run to first base.

"In the second half of the first game, the attack of Sendai Yuying High School, the second stick, the guerrilla, the son of Zuojun, the back number 6."

After the batter rests the bat on his left shoulder and prepares to strike, Yagami Yagami, who is standing sideways on the pitcher's board, steps forward with his leg and waves his arm to throw the ball at home plate.

"Bang!"

A slider moving from the front of the hitter's thigh to the right at a ball speed of 134 km/h is caught by a glove extended downward by the hand behind the corner side.

“Strike.“

On the second ball, Yagami followed the catcher's code and threw a belt-high inward fastball to home plate with a wave of his arm.

"Whew!"

When a fast ball with a speed of 141 km/h is moved out of the good ball area from the front of the chest of Mitsuya Yusa to the right, Mitsuya Yusa swept the bat in his hand past him.

"Huh!"

The timing of the swing was a little late, and after the hitter missed the swing, catcher Keisuke Miyauchi caught the flying baseball behind the outside corner.

"Smack!"

“Strike….“

Yagami Yagami, who was standing on the pitcher's board, nodded as he watched the code that Miyauchi had compared to him, then stepped forward with his leg and waved his left hand to throw a high inward fastball towards home plate.

"Ping!"

When the fast ball with a speed of 142 km/h moves to the right and above the corner, the bat, which is swung hard by the beater, hits the bottom and flies high backwards.

"Out of bounds!"

The fourth ball is still a fast ball with an inward speed of 141km/h.

"Ping!"

The straight ball that moved horizontally to the right to the corner was hit by the batter's swing and flew to the left.

"Out of bounds!" The baseball he knocked off landed in the audience on the left side of the field.

On the fifth ball, Yagami Yagami threw a high bad ball to home plate at a speed of 139km/h, which was caught by a rising catcher above the outside corner.

On the sixth ball, Yagami followed the code given to him by Miyauchi and waved his left hand to throw a curved ball to home plate.

"Ping!"

The curveball was high on the belt, and at a speed of 128km/h, it moved diagonally down from Mitsuya Yusa to the right, and was hit by his swing in the middle of the outside corner, a bounce ball in the direction of first base.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which bounced all the way from the front of the left batting area to the right side of the first base, was caught by Tetsuya Yuuki, the first baseman who ran out from behind the first base.

"Porphyry!"

Tetsuya Yuuki, who received the ball, hurriedly turned to the left, faced the runner who was about to fly to base, stepped on the first base bag in a thrilling way, and then the runner who fell to the ground.

“out.“

"In the second half of the first game, the attack of Sendai Yuei High School, three sticks, left fielder, Wu Zijun, back number 7."

When Takeko Rendai was ready in the batting area and stared at himself with his bat held high, Yagami Yagami, who was standing sideways, stepped forward with his right foot and swung his hand to shoot a straight ball near the knee to home plate.

"Bang!"

With a ball speed of 146km/h, he crossed the home plate from below in the low position of the inside corner and was caught by Keisuke Miyauchi's outstretched glove.

“Ball.“

In the second ball, Yagami Yagami threw a slippery ball to home plate according to the code, and the ball speed was 138km/h.

"Smack!"

A slider that moves down horizontally from the top of the left hitting area to the right is caught by the left hand in front of the hitter's thigh, just in the middle of the hit area, with the left hand extending forward.

“Strike.“

The third ball is a low outside corner ball, which brings the ball count to two bad and one good.

On the fourth pitch, at the request of the catcher, Yagami once again threw a slippery ball to home plate.

"Bang!"

The slider, which was moving inward laterally at a speed of 136 km/h from a high position, was caught by a glove reached out by a hand next to the hitter's right thigh.

“Strike…“

On the fifth pitch, Yagami stretched out his right foot and waved his left hand to shoot a low-post two-horizontal fastball into home plate.

"Ping!"

The fast ball, which was moving down at a speed of 138 km/h, was low behind the corner and was about to be caught by the glove reached by the capsule, Mitsuya Yusa swung his bat and sent the ball flying to the left.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which landed in front of the junction between the right hit area and the home plate, bounced in the direction of the third baseman, and was caught by the running third baseman Shoji Higasa.

“out.”

As soon as he received the ball, he stepped forward and waved his arm to pass the ball to first base, blocking the runner who had already run behind Yuuki Senpai.

"Offensive and defensive exchanges..."

Let the opponent run back to the rest area with his teammates.

……

"In the first half of the fourth inning, the attack of Seido High School, three sticks, the middle fielder, Izaki-kun, the back number..."

As the batter stands on the batting area and looks at the pitcher with his bat held high, pitcher Yuki Sato, who is standing on the pitcher's board, raises his legs and steps forward, swinging his arms to throw a straight ball high and inside to home plate.

"Smack!"

The straight ball, which sped forward at a speed of 142 km/h, hit the right forearm above the elbow as the hitter Izanoshiki turned his arm, and bounced down to the ground in the left strike area.

"Touch the ball!".

The referee stepped out from behind the catcher, slapped his left forearm to signal the pitcher to pitch the ball, and then swung his left hand in the direction of first base to guide the batter to base.

Jun Izaki dropped his bat in the preparation area outside the left-shot area and trotted to first base as pitcher Yuki Sato apologized to him for taking off his hat.
