v2 Chapter 169: : Fill the base bag first

What's the most exciting thing about a baseball field?

In other words, what gets the audience's adrenaline pumping the most? Let them forget their reason and cheer.

That's without a doubt strikeouts and home runs.

How many strikeouts are there in a game? No one can say this, it all depends on the ability of the pitcher.

For example, if the person standing on the mound is Narnomiya Naruto, or Sawamura Eijun.

Then the strikeouts will definitely be the norm, and the two of them will be on the mound if they don't get more than double-digit strikeouts in a game.

They feel ashamed themselves.

The terrifying star players are not bragging when the upper lip touches the mouth. But it has a real bottom line.

Compared to the commonplace strikeout, the home run is more exciting because it occurs relatively infrequently.

But today's game was different. There were several home runs.

This is destined to be a game that will go down in history.

And the performance of the players is completely worthy of such honor.

"Daocheng! Daocheng!!!"

The cheerleaders of Daocheng Industrial High School were as excited as they were eating aphrodisiac as a group.

At the start of the game, they trailed by two points. It was just tied before, and now it has even surpassed.

Nothing excites them more than that.

Even the director of Guoyou, who has always been informal, has a softer taste on his face.

Although today's game is not over yet, they have begun to gradually take the initiative.

Next, we will see how Qingdao High School plays the cards.

As Narimiya Ming scored this two-run homer, the score between the two sides was pulled apart again. Only this time, the leading party was replaced by Daocheng Industrial High School.

The total score was 5:3, and Daocheng Industrial High School led by two points.

In the rest area of ​​Qingdo High School.

Everyone's faces were extremely ugly.

Supervisor Kataoka said beforehand that today's game is not intended for Sawamura Eijun to pitch.

But looking at the current situation, if Sawamura Eijun didn't play, they would be really in danger.

The difference of two points is nothing, and the opponent's pitcher Hirano is already reaching his limit. Solving him is a matter of minutes.

The key is the mound.

If the mound becomes a colander, no matter how many points they score, it doesn't seem to be very useful.

"You have to hold on, Axian."

At the catcher's position, Miyuki carefully looked at his partner on the mound.

Man, it's time to test us.

Although the two junior brothers in the first grade suddenly emerged, but Miyuki also saw Kawakami's efforts during this period of time.

"Believe in your own pitching, you can do it, Axian."

on the mound.

Kawakami Kenshi gasped heavily.

When he saw Akatsuki Furuya and Eijun Sawamura pitching on the mound before, he didn't have such a clear feeling.

I didn't know they were under so much pressure!

The giants of the national level are no less than the dark horse teams of the giants, and even the top giants in the country.

Almost all the opponents encountered in Koshien are of this strength.

Originally in Tokyo, they also played against Daocheng Industrial High School. But Kawakami didn't play in those two games.

So for him, this is also the first time against Daocheng Industry.

Only after the real confrontation did he feel the terror of the opponent's strength more clearly.

Terrible!

Sawamura-san, have you always been under so much pressure?

Who can appreciate the pressure a ace pitcher faces without actually standing on the mound?

At this time, scenes of training in winter appeared in front of Kawakami.

As long as he thinks of this, his heart is full of unwillingness.

He has already come here, how could he back down?

Going back, there was no such thing as 800 years ago.

"Whoosh!"

Pulling off the stance, Kawakami threw his sharpest shot.

"Ping!"

Daocheng Industrial High School's four-batter Gang, hit the ball cleanly.

Baseball is out of bounds.

After confirming that the ball had fallen, all the supporters of Qingdao High School were greatly relieved.

terrible!

The terrifying aura of the other party felt like it was going to swallow them alive.

Daocheng Industrial High School's fourth best, it really lives up to its reputation.

Although he swings the bat with all his strength, he is not particularly good at changing the ball. But he doesn't need to hit the center of the ball, just a little touch and he can sweep the ball out.

This kind of ability is absolutely incomparable to ordinary people.

"Snapped…"

"The outside world!"

Two consecutive **** hit out of bounds.

From the perspective of momentum, Daocheng Industrial High School's fourth club feels stronger.

But Gang himself didn't see it that way.

so difficult...

In contrast, he prefers a straight ball like Akatsuki Furutani.

And Kawakami is a change ball that will turn when it reaches the corner.

He's really not good at it.

"Ping!"

The last ball, after Gang hit the ball out, finally fell into bounds.

But Gang was not happy.

At the position of third base, Kanemaru opened his glove eagerly, and received the fly ball into his glove.

"Snapped!"

"Out!!!"

After Narnomiya Ming scored a home run, Kawakami, instead of being intimidated by the opponent's momentum, showed a very strong backbone.

In the end, the score was fixed at 5:3.

Although Tadanoki was very tenacious and won the hits, their sixth bat, Yabe, was not very good.

After Yabe hit the ball, it landed right in front of shortstop Kuramochi.

"Hip-hop!"

It was as if a cheetah that was hunting was suddenly awakened.

Kuramochi rushed up with a lunge, picked up the ball and sent it to first base.

"Out!"

Three outs, offense and defense exchange.

The situation on the field has been completely turned upside down.

Daocheng Industrial High School, which was originally at a disadvantage, not only tied the score, but even completed the reversal in this game.

On the other hand, the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Their ending is more tragic, and the situation is precarious until now.

The score gap has reached two points.

Under such circumstances, the game ushered in the second half of the six innings.

In the rest area of ​​Qingdao High School, a group of people are discussing offensive tactics.

Coach Ochiai touched the mustache on his chin and said thoughtfully.

"The opponent is obviously avoiding the fight with Sawamura-san and Miyuki-san."

This is of course, there have been two consecutive rounds of seats. As long as these two guys are on the field, the other party will undoubtedly choose to walk.

"Then there are only two possibilities for attacking the opponent. One is for other players to score points, and the other is to fill three bases before these two players play."

Director Kataoka nodded, then turned to the batters who were about to play.

"You should have heard what Coach Ochiai said, right? I won't say much nonsense. There is only one goal, get on base as much as possible."

"Yes!"

Apparently, Supervisor Kataoka adopted the second strategy.

That was to fill the fort before it was Sawamura and Miyuki's turn.

It's just that it's easy to say, but if you really want to do it, it's not that simple.

...
