Sawamura scored three consecutive strikeouts, and the two sides exchanged offense and defense.
In the second half of the game, it was Akagi Middle School to attack.
Akagi's first match in this match was Sawamura's ace partner Ken Yamaguchi.
"Don't be nervous, Yamaguchi."
Sawamura patted Yamaguchi's shoulder lightly, signaling him to relax.
"Look at you, Yamaguchi."
"It's time to show your manly charm..."
Little friends, cheer for Yamaguchi. Because of Sawamura's pitching, the enthusiasm of the little friends is very high. Anyway, Sawamura's pitching can keep Nagata's batters out, they just need to do their best to score.
One point, as long as there is one point, they will win.
Such confidence support is too powerful. Everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high. Once the little friends work together to win a point, the combat power they form is very terrifying.
Strike depends on talent. Although Akagi's team also has two buddies who have been in contact with baseball before, when it comes to striking power, Yamaguchi surpasses both of them. He is the second only batter in the entire team after Sawamura. .
For him, Akagi's friends naturally placed high hopes on him.
As long as he can get to base, he will continue to play smoothly in the hands of the fourth player, Sawamura. It is very likely that Akagi will score points in the first game.
"I want to fight too!"
Yamaguchi smiled wryly.
Of course he was eager to hit the ball, but as long as he thought of the ball that Sawamura threw when he helped them practice on weekdays, and the pitch of the first-year pitcher Miki from Shilun Middle School, a feeling of powerlessness,
It was shrouded in Yamaguchi's heart.
The pitcher's ball is so fast, how can he hit it?
After all, these little friends in Akagi Middle School didn't start playing baseball since they were children, and their strength is still very limited. Even Yamaguchi, who was second only to Sawamura in attack power, had only been practicing swinging for less than half a month.
"Snapped!"
Just when Yamaguchi hesitated, Nagata's pitcher pitched. His ball was thrown firmly into the open glove of the Nagata catcher.
From Yamaguchi's point of view, Nagata's pitching was incredible. The ball is so slow, as slow as a tortoise crawling. Not to mention Miki, the pitcher of Sawamura and Shi Lun's second army, even if he pitched by Yamaguchi, he pitched much faster than Nagata.
There is no need to talk about the specific speed of the ball in kilometers, and Yamaguchi can't tell. Yamaguchi just had a feeling that he might be able to hit the ball too!
Yamaguchi swung decisively after falling behind in the number of balls.
"Ping!"
Not to mention, Yamaguchi deserves to be Akagi's first 'strong hit' after Sawamura. He really hit the ball, and his flying speed and angle are very good.
"I hit, I **** hit!!"
Yamaguchi looked at the bat in his hand in disbelief, feeling very magical. I didn't expect that he would have this day too, it's so cool, it's so cool! !
Yamaguchi, who has always been introverted, couldn't help but cheer.
Just before he could cheer, he faintly felt that someone was calling him.
"Yamaguchi, Yamaguchi!"
Going back to God's Yamaguchi, he followed the sound and saw that Sawamura was shouting something at him, while his arms were constantly waving.
What's wrong?
"Brother, you are playing with me, run! Run quickly!!"
Finally, Yamaguchi heard clearly.
Sawamura told him to run fast, what? First base of course.
The ball doesn't have to be hit. After the ball hits the ground, before the fielding player returns the ball to the base bag, the batter must run to the base bag safely, so that it can be counted as an effective hit.
Yamaguchi had an epiphany, twisted his sturdy body, and ran to first base.
But it took a long time. After hitting out, Yamaguchi was shocked first, then he was intoxicated, Sawamura reminded him, and finally ran to first base...
The whole process took a full ten seconds, and Yamaguchi took a full five seconds to go from the strike zone to first base.
Fifteen seconds!
At this time, Sawamura would almost be able to run back to home base, but Yamaguchi hadn't reached first base yet.
Even if he played well, Nagata's player was not a wooden player. The ball was passed to first base early, and the Yamaguchi kid was blocked out.
Akagi's rest area.
Sawamura held his forehead in pain.
"What's wrong?"
Cang Yue asked with concern. Sawamura's sudden unrequited expression startled her.
"It's too embarrassing! It's embarrassing!!"
Sawamura's face turned purple. If Kuramochi-senpai knew that his little friend couldn't run to first base for ten seconds, he would probably have laughed.
"sorry!"
Little Fatty was very ashamed. Sawamura had clearly told them so many times before, but once he played, he couldn't help but make mistakes.
"It's okay, it's okay! You finally hit the ball out, and it's a good start."
Sawamura got up again and comforted his partner like Xiaoqiang who couldn't be beaten to death.
Most of Akagi's friends are beginners, they will make mistakes, and there is nothing they can do. Sawamura could still figure this out.
However, in his previous life, he himself was very ignorant, and he didn't have such an intuitive feeling about everyone's mistakes. Now, when he looks back on it, he realizes that he wanted to lead such a team into the country at that time.
The ignorant is fearless, and that's probably what he said.
Once out, no one hits the base.
Akagi's performance made Nagata's players stunned. UU reading A hit that is at least second base, and it just flew. Are these guys from Akagi really strong, or are they just a bunch of laymen.
If he wasn't strong, how could that hitter be so good? But to be strong, how could they not even know how to run the bases?
The game continued. After that, the performance of the two batters was not as impressive as Yamaguchi's. One of them was struck out directly, and the other hit an infield grounder, landed in front of the pitcher, and was caught by Nagata's pitcher.
Three outs, offense and defense exchange.
In the first half of the second game, Nagata Middle School attacked.
This time, it was Nagata's fourth bat.
The fourth stick in any team cannot be given for nothing. Their blows must have their own set.
Sawamura is still very careful about this opponent. When controlling the ball, try to avoid the center of the strike zone.
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"Ping!"
After two consecutive strikes, Nagata's four hits Sawamura's pitch.
The moment the bat collided with the baseball, Nagata's four bats felt that the bat in his hand could not help but fly away. Sawamura's pitching is terrifyingly heavy! This ball is far from an ordinary 120-kilometer ball that can have it.
The baseball was hit, unable to rebound, and rolled forward slowly.
Yamaguchi performed well this time. He picked up the ball and used his gloves to directly touch the four sticks who were stunned on the ground.
"Get out!"
"Out!!"
With Nagata's fourth out, Sawamura gave Nagata's batter three hits and three hits for the second time.
The game went into the second half of the second inning.
Akagi Middle School's first hitter is the fourth, Sawamura Eijun!
