Chapter 502: Quasi-Decisive Victory (12)
"Bang!"
The pitcher's fourth pitch to home plate was a high-speed slider, and when it was moved laterally at 134 km/h to the outside corner and in front of the hitter, it was caught by the glove that was reached forward by Akito Takami.
“Strike.“
In the case that one good ball is missing to end the half inning, Manaka and Takami have to confirm each other's codes, raise their legs, and wave their arms to throw a straight ball into the inside corner of home plate.
"Ping!"
With a ball speed of 139 km/h, he flew forward from the pitcher's mound to a straight ball above the good ball area, and was hit by the bottom of the batter in front of the chest of Yoichi Kuramochi, and flew high to the left.
"Smack!"
Crossing the boundary of the inner and outer fields from left to right, Shimazu, a shortstop standing on the lawn of the left field, raised his hands to catch the baseball as he looked up at the baseball that was being hit by the victim.
"Catch and kill—"
"After Qingdao achieved the lead score, the third year of the city finally got the last number of outs in the game, ending the first half of the six rounds as he wished."
……
"The second half of the sixth inning, the attack of the third year of the city's university, seven sticks, catcher, Gao Jianjun, back number..."
Standing with his legs apart on the batting area, hitter Akito Takami stares at the pitcher in front of him while holding his bat high and waiting for his pitch.
"Whew!"
On the first pitch, at Chris's request, Koichiro Tanba stretched out his left leg and waved his arm to the home plate to throw a low straight ball into the outside corner.
"Bang!"
After flying over home plate at 137km/h along the edge of the good zone, he was caught by Chris's outstretched glove in the low back of the corner.
“Ball.“
In the second ball, there was really no way to change Chris's match, Koichiro Tanami, who could only wave his arm to throw a low straight ball into the outside corner of home plate again as required.
"Bang!"
The knee-high ball flew forward at a speed of 137 km/h and was caught by a glove extended by the hand in front of the hitter's right knee.
“Strike.“
On the third ball, Koichiro Tanba continued to follow the catcher's code to throw a straight ball from the outside corner in the low corner of the home plate, with a speed of 137km/h.
"Smack!"
The straight ball flew in front of the hitter's knee against the corner, and was caught a little lower in front of the hitter's right knee, and was caught by the glove reached by the arrester Chris.
“Strike…“
After forcing the hitter into a two-good ball dilemma, Koichiro Tanba reached for his left foot, waved his arm, and continued to throw a straight ball into the outside corner of home plate.
"Huh!"
The pitcher's straight ball to home plate flew 137 km/h from the front of the hitter's thigh through the good ball zone and left the batter swept from below to no avail before being caught by Chris's outstretched glove.
"Bang!"
“Strike out.“
"In the second half of the sixth inning, the attack of the third college of the city university, eight sticks, right fielder, Hiyama-kun, back number..."
Wait for Hiyama to stand with his legs apart in the batting area, turn his head to stare at himself, and raise the bat high in the air, waiting for the blow.
Looking at Chris By's code... Wanting to curl the ball, Koichiro Tanba shook his head, and he wanted to continue to throw a low straight ball from the outside corner.
“……”
With Tamba's possession of the straight ball so good in this game, Chris thought a little and agreed with the idea that he wanted to continue to throw a straight ball low in the outside corner.
"Whew!"
A straight ball that gallops past the left side of the corner at a speed of 137 km/h, is caught by the hand's downward open glove behind the interface between the hitting area and home plate and behind the outside corner under the gaze of the hitter.
"Bang!"
“Ball.“
As Hiyama reprepared himself and raised his bat to look at him, Koichiro Tanba stepped up with his legs up, waved his arms, and threw a straight ball into the inside corner of home plate.
"Smack!"
The 135 km/h straight ball sped above the touchline of the hitting area, the hitter stretched his legs backwards to avoid being hit by the ball, and then flew to the knee in front of the knee and caught it with the glove that the hand stretched forward.
“Ball…“
In the third ball, Koichiro Tanami, who missed the shot again, threw a straight ball to a high position in the middle of the ball area, and the ball speed was 136km/h.
"Ping!"
The pitcher's straight ball goes straight from the pitcher's mound to the front of the hitter's belt, and in the middle of the hitter's zone, the bat, which Hiyama swings outward, hits the center of the ball and flies high and flies backwards forward.
"Home Run ——!!"
The baseball, which rushed into the center-right fielder from above the second baseman, had no intention of falling, and fell over the home run wall and fell into the spectator seat above the exit tunnel under the chase of fielder Jun Izashaki and right fielder Kenjiro Hakushu.
"Pause!"
After runner Hiyama stepped on the base bags from first to third base and returned to home plate to score, Chris immediately asked the chief judge for a timeout and ran forward.
"Tamba..."
Chris comforted Danbo on the pitcher's mound to see if there was any major fluctuation in his form, and returned to home plate to end the timeout after confirming that Tambo had not given up on himself.
"In the bottom half of the sixth inning, the attack of the junior college in the city, the nine, the pitcher, the real middle kun, the back number..."Chris had just returned home plate from the pitcher's mound when the announcer's voice rang above the court.
"Whew!"
After Manaka raised his bat to get ready, Koichiro Tanba was affected by that home run and swung his arm to the home plate to throw a bad ball that was in.
"Bang!"
Seeing this, Chris could only move the glove that was originally placed behind the outside corner inward and catch the ball in front of the hitter's abdomen.
"Whew!"
Koichiro Tanami, who no longer insisted on throwing a straight ball in the low post, stepped forward with his left foot and waved his right hand towards home plate to throw a belt-high inward fastball.
"Ping!"
The fast ball, which is horizontally displaced at a speed of 137 km/h, moves out of the good ball area to the right, hits the bottom of the ball with his swing in front of the belt (not in the standby position) and flies high backwards.
"Out of bounds!" The baseball he knocked off fell into the audience at home plate.
On the third ball, after Manaka was about to raise his bat and get ready again, Koichiro Tanba stood on the pitcher's board, raised his leg and stepped forward, and threw a longitudinal curve ball with his right hand to home plate.
"Bang!"
The pitcher's curveball to home plate moves longitudinally down in front of the hitter's left chest at a speed of 120 km/h, and then catches it with the glove of Chris outstretched down in front of the calf and behind the outside corner in front of the hitter's calf.
“Strike.“
One good ball was missing to get outs, and Koichiro Tanba waved his arm to home plate according to the code to throw a rising fast ball with a speed of 135km/h.
"Ping!"
The ball flew through the corner to the front of the hitter's abdomen, and just as it was about to be caught by Chris's outstretched glove, the batter Manaka was about to swing forward hit the bottom side of the ball head-on, sending it flying high to the left.
"Out of bounds!" The baseball that he knocked off, chased by Chris and Masukoto, fell into the audience on the third base side.
"Whew!"
After Chris returned to the back of home plate and crouched again, Koichiro Tanba glanced at his friend who was ready to hit and threw a longitudinal curveball at home plate according to the code.
"Ping!".
A curved ball that moves outward at a speed of 118km/h from a slightly lower position in front of the player's left arm is hit by a bat that is about to swing downward when it is about to reach a low position behind the outside corner in the middle of the hit area.
"Smack!"
