v2 Chapter 52: : Akagi, Akagi! !!

Once out, there is someone at first and third base.

This can be regarded as a very favorable scoring situation on the baseball field. The threat of this situation is even more desperate than the full base. With the bases full, it looked as if the batter could score consistently as long as he hits.

But it also irritates the pitcher, he just needs to focus on the batter. Full bases limit runners' stealing, and pitchers don't have to distract themselves from paying attention to them. In college games, or even in professional baseball, there is an unfavorable situation with someone on first and third base. Especially when there are one or two outs to make the bottom, the fielder is even willing to walk a batter to form a full base before fielding.

This shows how dangerous the situation Akagi is facing now.

Sawamura opened his eyes and looked at the cowshed of Tenryu Temple. He originally thought that with his more than ten years of experience in the stadium, it should be very easy to lead his friends and defeat his opponents to enter the country.

In fact, Sawamura's experience really helped him a lot. The players of Akagi Middle School have grown by leaps and bounds in just one and a half years. Even if Sawamura wasn't standing on the mound, they would have played vigorously. Without Sawamura's scientific guidance, it was absolutely impossible. Although Sawamura has not specially learned the knowledge of coaches, but he has never eaten pork, and has not seen a pig go? Even if Sawamura didn't know why he trained like that, his training method was undoubtedly very scientific.

In addition to training methods, Sawamura's baseball IQ is also good. He can see through some common tactics at a glance.

Against other teams, Sawamura has always had no disadvantage. With his experience and strength, leading Akagi can make Akagi exert 15%, or even 200% of his strength. If it weren't for this reason, Akagi would not have defeated Nagano Metropolitan last summer.

But every time he fights with Nagano, or fights with Tenryuji, Sawamura always has the uncomfortable feeling of sailing against the current.

The countermeasures they formulated often hit Akagi's vital points. Just like now, Tianlong Temple has clearly given up on this final, but the old fox made a little trick and put Akagi in crisis. If Sawamura didn't stand up, it would not be easy for Akagi to survive this crisis.

Compared with them, Sawamura finally lost the lead in commanding the team.

"This old fox!"

In his heart, he complained, Sawamura was in the outfield and gave a secret signal.

He didn't plan to get on the mound at this time, especially in front of so many reconnaissance cameras. But this does not mean that Sawamura gave up victory.

Use an outside corner to decide the outcome, seduce the batter to swing, as long as the ball lands on the side of first base, then Akagi has a chance.

In the position of the catcher, Feng Xiang, who cooperated tacitly with Sawamura, thought of it together. It may be impossible to count on Xiaomu to solve the batter by himself. Not to mention his current state of mind, in terms of his strength, it is also difficult to strike out the batters of Tianlong Temple.

That being the case, you might as well give up relying on strikeouts to get outs, and rely directly on defense to deal with batters.

"Don't make a mistake in controlling the ball!"

Feng Xiang chanted silently and gave Xiao Mu a secret signal.

Outside corner!

On the pitcher mound, Komaki nodded. He forced himself to calm down and stop focusing on the runners, instead focusing all of his attention on possession.

Control the ball, control the ball!

Taking a deep breath, Xiaomu threw his ball.

"Whoosh!"

Because of the focus on controlling the ball, this shot is not fast, and the position is also very sweet. The center is on the outer side, and the outer corners can also be said, but in fact, there is still a long distance from the corners.

So comfortable!

Tenryuji's sixth ball, I felt that the ball was so comfortable that it almost hit the muzzle of my gun. In this position, he is very easy to play long hits.

This feeling is impossible to say. If you have to use an analogy, it is a bit like playing a game and seeing people's heads.

Even if you didn't plan to attack at first, but everyone's heads are sent to your door, how can you hold back?

Of course, the batter swung his bat.

"Ping!"

The small white ball was hit and flew out high.

"it is good!!!"

"beautiful!"

The ball was hit very well and flew high and far.

Hattori at third base stared at the direction where the baseball landed. The direction should be left field, about fifty or sixty meters away.

At this distance, if it is a high school, it is hard to say whether it can steal home plate. But for middle school, this distance is enough. Enough for the third base runner to run back to home plate. After all, middle school outfielders aren't as tough as high school players.

And the error rate of long passes is very high!

And even if this ball is placed in a high school game, the runner has a good chance to run from third base to home plate.

At that moment, Hattori made up his mind that whether the ball was caught or landed, he would run.

Beneath the baseball, Sawamura had long been prepared to take the baseball into his glove.

Good luck, it's not a difficult level fly, but an ordinary high fly. Judging the whereabouts, Sawamura barely caught it.

"Snapped!"

The moment Sawamura caught the ball, Hattori on third base started moving like a high-speed train.

"Pass home plate!"

Fengxiang has been paying attention to Hattori's movements, and when he sees him starting, he immediately greets Sawamura. But at a distance of more than 50 meters, can Sawamura hear clearly?

Fortunately, it doesn't matter if he can't hear clearly. Sawamura has never neglected his defense against Hattori. When he saw Hattori start running, not only was he not angry, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

In terms of ball speed, Sawamura is indeed not the best. But when it comes to going far, Sawamura believes that among the middle school students in the country, there are absolutely few who can be compared with him.

The limit of his own measurement is 102 meters To him, a precise long pass of 50 meters is really nothing.

"Whoosh!"

Passing like a laser beam, he crossed most of the court from the left field and got into Feng Xiang's glove.

At this time, Hattori was still ten meters away from home plate.

Feng Xiang waited for him to come, and then killed him.

"Get out!"

Double kill!

Picked up the batter, and by the way, touched the runner on third base.

The huge crisis of people on the first and third bases turned into nothing in the face of Sawamura's precise long pass.

"Oh, what is that? It feels like light!"

"I'll go, it's too good. Sawamura is so handsome as an outfielder."

"It's gold, it can shine anywhere."

The audience's astonishment, let's not talk about it. Because of this double kill, Akagi's momentum was completely out, and the performance of the little friends was very good after that, and the outstanding ones were a bit scary.

In the fifth game, Akagi lost one point and got two points.

In the sixth game, Akagi lost another point and did not score.

In the seventh game, Akagi broke out on the line and scored three points in one go. Of course, they also lost two points at the same time.

The total score is 8:6!

With a two-point advantage, Akagi defeated the super king Tenryuji's substitute army and won the championship in Nagano.

Although Sawamura didn't get on the mound and Nanami Haruka didn't even play in this game, it was still very exciting! That's the case with the batting battle, no matter what the outcome is, from the viewing point of view, it must be much better than the pitcher battle.

After the game, everyone applauded Akagi.

"Akagi! Akagi!!!"

Such shouting continued for five or six minutes.
