Chapter 505: Quasi-Decisive Victory (15)

"Huh!"

A straight ball that flies in front of the hitter's thigh (high knee) at a speed of 139 km/h, allows the hitter to swing the batter from above and catch it with the glove that the hand reaches in at the low knee of the right leg.

"Bang!"

“Strike.“

In the third ball, Koichiro Tanba stretched out his left foot and waved his right hand to throw a belt-high straight ball to home plate at a speed of 133km/h.

"Bang!"

The straight ball that flew from the pitcher's mound to the front of the hitter's abdomen was caught above the corner with the glove extended upwards by the captor.

“Ball.“

With the ball count behind, Koichiro Tanba continued to throw a belt-high straight ball to home plate according to the code.

"Ping!"

The ball flew at a speed of 137 km/h to the inside corner, and the bat that was swung forward by the beater, Oshima, hit the bottom and flew forward past the side of the referee.

"Out of bounds!"

As long as he throws a good shot to get the number of outs, Koichiro Tanba raises his leg and stomps, swinging his arm to throw a straight ball inside home plate.

"Smack!"

The straight ball that rushed straight in front of the belt at a speed of 139km/h allowed Oshima to duck with his legs stretched back, allowing Chris to reach forward with his left hand and catch the ball without being hindered.

“Ball…“

On the sixth pitch, according to the code given to him by Crispie, Koichiro Tanba threw a straight ball into the inside corner of home plate.

"Ping!"

The 140 km/h straight ball flew from the pitcher's mound to the front of his thigh and was swept to the right by his downward swing of the bat.

"Out of bounds!" The baseball, which was swept out by Oshima to the right, fell on the front base.

On the seventh pitch, after the hitter was re-prepared on the right hitting area, Koichiro Tanba followed the code and threw a near-belt inward fastball to home plate.

"Ping!"

The fast ball that moved horizontally to the right at a speed of 136 km/h in front of the belt was hit by the batter Oshima, sending it high into the air and galloping to the left.

"Smack!"

After being tied by his opponent due to a bad pass in the bottom half of the sixth inning, third baseman Toru Masuko had to make up for his mistake and when Oshima swept the ball overhead, he jumped up and down with his left hand (as high as he could) to catch the ball.

"Ahh Catch! ”

“… Masuko-kun's tenacious will, everyone present felt it!! ”

"In the second half of the ninth inning, the attack of the third university in the city, three sticks, the middle and middle fielders, Miyagawa-kun, back number 1."

When hitter Teru Miyagawa was ready in the left-hand zone, raised his bat, and turned his head to stare at him, Koichiro Tanba stepped up and threw a curveball that lowered the path to home plate according to the code.

"Bang!"

A curved ball that moves diagonally down from the front of the hitter's thigh at a speed of 120 km/h, and is caught by a glove that is open downward by the hand behind the inside corner and in front of the hitter's left calf.

“Ball.“

"Whew!"

In the second ball, Koichiro Tanba threw a curveball to home plate again according to the code, and the ball speed was 120km/h.

"Bang!"

The curveball hangs high on the belt, moving diagonally down from the front of the batter's right arm, and then catches the glove behind the edge line and in front of the batter's belt.

“Strike.“

On the third pitch, after Miyagawa, a junior in the city, was getting his bat up and getting ready again, Koichiro Tanba threw an outside corner longitudinal slider to home plate at Chris's request.

"Whew!"

The high-belted curveball moves inward from the front of the hitter's right elbow at 119 km/h before crossing the edge line and falling into the outside corner.

"Huh!"

The curveball that is about to fall into the trapper's glove causes the hitter's swing to miss it from below, and then grabs it in front of the hitter's knee with the glove that the capsule closes downward.

"Smack!"

“Strike…“

One more good ball would end the ninth inning and go into the playoff, Koichiro Tanba nodded at the code given to him by Crispie, raised his leg and stepped forward, waving his arm to shoot a straight ball into the outside corner of home plate.

"Huh!"

At a speed of 140 km/h, the ball flew straight in front of the hitter's abdomen, allowing the batter Teru Miyagawa to swing outwards and sweep it from above.

"Bang!"

Immediately after, Chris's upward-moving gloves caught Tambo's unhurried straight ball.

“Strike out.“

"Three outs, offense and defense exchange."

……

"In the first half of the tenth inning, Seido High School's attack, three sticks, middle and middle fielders, Izagi-kun, back number..."After a few hard swings of the bat, Izaoshiki Junyu, who was standing next to the waiting area, walked over to the right hitting area amid the announcement.

After tidying up the ground with his head down and his feet, Jun Izashaki looked up at the pitcher Manaka in front of him, stopped swinging his bat under him, and raised the bat upwards while waiting for the blow.

"Whew!"

For the first ball, according to the code given to him by Shimizu, Manaka had to raise his legs, step up, and wave his arms to throw a straight ball from the outside corner to home plate.

"Huh!"

At a speed of 140 km/h, the ball flew from the pitcher's mound to the straight ball in front of the hitter's abdomen, allowing the batter Jun Izashaki to swing outwards and sweep it downward.

"Bang!"

At the same time that the hitter's swing failed, Shimizu, who replaced Akito Takami, stretched out his glove upwards and caught the ball.

“Strike.“

For the second ball, Manaka will swing his arm to the inside corner of home plate and land directly on the ground in the running area in front of the hitter's feet, so that the number of balls will become one good and one bad.

"Whew!"

For the third ball, after Izawaki has raised the bat and re-prepared, Manaka will throw a curveball to home plate at a speed of 123km/h.

"Smack!"

The curveball is held high by the belt, moved diagonally down in front of the hitter's left elbow, and then above the left hitting area, the front of the catcher's right calf is caught by the glove that extends downward.

“Strike.“

Fourth, because of the catcher's request, Manaka had to throw a straight ball into the outside corner of the home plate.

"Ping!"

The ball flew through the edge line at a speed of 143km/h to the front of the thigh, and was swept to the right by Jun Izashaki to the corner of the left hitting area.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which landed on home plate, bounced forward to the edge of the infield behind the pitcher's mound, and was caught in a crouching position by second baseman Takahiro Hirakawa, who was guarding in front of the right fielder and deep in the infield, as it rolled forward.

“out.“

After receiving the ball, Takahiro Hirakawa got up and waved the ball to Hoshida, the first baseman who was waiting in front of him, and blocked Izaki, who had just run to the baseball instructor's area, outside the base.

"In the first half of the tenth inning, the attack of Seido High School, four bats, first baseman, Yuuki-kun, back number..."

When Yuuki is ready in the batting area and keeps an eye on himself while raising his bat and waiting for the strike, Manaka, who is standing on the pitcher's board, reaches forward with his left foot and throws the belt curveball towards home plate with his right hand.

"Bang!"

The curveball moves diagonally downwards from the front of the hitter's abdomen at a speed of 126 km/h, and after tricking the hitter to swing the bat, it catches it with a glove on the ground at the back of the hitting area.

“Strike.“

In the second ball, according to the code given to him by Shimizu, Manaka had to raise his leg and step up, swing his arm and throw it at home plate, which was about the same as the previous ball, with a ball speed of 124km/h.

"Smack!".

Seeing this, Shimizu, the third catcher of the city university, put his gloves on the back of the hitting area and caught the ball.

“Ball.“
