On the field of Koshien.
A national 8-in-4 game is in full swing.
If a player wants to stand here, he must have certain quality and luck.
Of course, if your strength can be strong to a certain extent.
Even if you are not very lucky, you can still appear here.
For example, a genius with an IQ over 160, Akutsu.
Although his powerful approach is not much in common with that of a baseball player in the traditional sense.
But his strength is recognized by all fans in the country.
This is a top player.
A top pitcher who can be compared with the great demon king Sawamura Eijun and the troll monster Honjo Masamune.
With his own strength, he can lead a team forward.
Akutsu is such a player.
Countless games before, have verified a fact.
That is, if you want to defeat a team led by such a player, you must first have such a player in your team.
In the previous games that Xibang lost, the opponents were Qingdao, Trolls, and Daocheng.
Theoretically speaking, if the opponent's strength does not reach this level, it is impossible to pose too much threat to Xibang High School.
Or to put it simply, they couldn't possibly put too much pressure on Akutsu.
In this case, either Akutsu or the other players of the Xibong High School baseball team.
Before they played this game, they were very confident.
For this little-known opponent in front of them, isn't it easy for them to deal with the opponent they want to clean up?
As long as they exert a little strength, the other side will be crushed immediately.
But obviously, they were wrong!
Although Akutsu, the ace, is as sharp as ever.
But the opponent in front of them is not the weakling they originally imagined.
Osaka Kiryu is also one of the top giants in the country.
Even if the team didn't have too many star players, they also caused a lot of trouble for Xibang High School.
In the first three rounds of the contest, although they had always had the advantage on the scene, they were not able to completely overwhelm the opponent, and they were not even able to score points.
It wasn't until the 4th inning that the batter from Xibon High School saw the flaw and started to hit base.
No one out, a favorable situation with someone at first and third base.
Ordinarily, there is no reason for Xibon High School not to score.
But in fact, they really failed to score points.
The difficulty of the opponent is far beyond their previous imagination.
Morishita, a rookie who just entered the field, is simply a brand-new unknown creature to the players of the Xibang High School baseball team.
Even though the opponent is just a freshman who just entered high school, the players of the Sibon High School baseball team can swear by the lights.
They definitely didn't underestimate each other for this reason.
Not at all...
On the contrary, because Osaka Kiryu replaced the freshman at this critical moment.
Players on the Westbourne High School baseball team also raised their guard.
Of course, they also know that with the arrogance of Osaka Kiryu High School, it is impossible to give up the game just like that.
The other party must have other intentions and motives for the substitution.
on the stand.
The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team looked at each other.
They are affiliated with the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team, and they are preparing to play a practice game with each other just before the summer games. In the end, because I went to the United States to participate in training camps and expeditions, this matter finally came to an end.
But they still know Osaka Kiryu High School very well.
Since the graduation of Hiroshimi, Osaka Kiryu High School has entered a long period of pain.
Without the team's ace and the fourth bat, their overall strength has weakened significantly.
Originally, the friends of the Qingdo High School baseball team thought that Osaka Kiryu should not have much to see in the past year or two.
To be honest, they were able to reach the quarterfinals of Koshien.
The members of the Qingdo High School baseball team were all very surprised.
In the end, the result was that they were very lucky.
Although in the group we were divided into, there was also a relatively strong opponent.
But that opponent is now similar to Osaka Kiryu's situation, and they are all unreliable ace pitchers.
As a result of the blow between the two sides, Osaka Kiryu finally came out on top.
The group is out!
After simply looking at the opponent's game, the friends of the Qingdo High School baseball team relaxed their vigilance towards them to the lowest level.
There are many ways to generate the top eight in Koshien.
There are people like Qingdao High School Baseball Team, who beat all the opponents all the way, and finally came to the end.
There are also strengths that are much better than other teams, and the journey has been smooth sailing.
Naturally, there will be no shortage. Like Osaka Kiryu, who has both luck and strength, finally stands out.
That in itself is nothing to say.
The problem is that the opponent's luck is better than strength.
Judging from the look and feel of the Qing Dao high baseball team at the time, in the first round of the quarter-finals, they could not meet.
I am afraid that the other party will hardly have a fair chance to win with him.
The Qingdao High School baseball team has limited time and energy, so there is absolutely no need to waste it on them.
But now it seems that they underestimate their old friend.
The reason why people didn't show too much strength is because they haven't tried their best.
Unexpectedly, there is such an outstanding player hidden in the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team.
The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team had never thought of it before.
"The current first grade, it's really not to be underestimated!"
Kuramochi said with emotion.
When the Qingdao High School baseball team played the orientation game, he actually had this feeling.
This year's Qingdao High School baseball team was a bumper crop!
You are welcome.
The best players in the first year are not necessarily inferior to the players on the Qingdo High School baseball team.
Even the two who were temporarily kicked out of the army because of the number limit.
Really speaking, the value to the team is not necessarily less than the 18 people left behind.
This originally surprised him very much!
But in fact, teams with good players are not just themselves.
During the same period, whether it was Daocheng, the third high school in the city, or the pharmacist.
Or some other wealthy family.
The newcomers who have emerged recently seem to be all terrifyingly strong.
In contrast, their own group can hardly be mentioned.
Except for Miyuki who got the chance at the beginning, no one was even promoted to the bench before the summer.
"The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves! The development of the times will never stop. In fact, these players who came up later are indeed better than the previous players."
Sawamura Eijun said with emotion.
When he said this, he was naturally moved.
Someone has put forward such a hypothesis before, the football king Maradona and the basketball **** Jordan.
If you were born in this era, it would not be so easy to become a legend.
Although they were flying all kinds of data brushes at that time!
But I have to admit that the overall quality of the players at that time did not seem to be as significant as the scientific management is now.
And in terms of tactics, at that time it relied a lot on the strength of individuals, but now it relies more and more on tactics.
Maybe they can make records too.
But the performance on the team should not be much better than the top players currently active on the court.
In this information age.
The importance of intelligence warfare has even surpassed the strength of the players themselves.
Why does this happen?
It is because the strength gap between professional team players has become smaller and smaller, not as big as before.
Of course it can't be because the players have retreated.
The truth is probably the opposite, these players have all improved.
have progressed to a very high level.
Therefore, the role of intelligence will become more and more prominent.
If the strength of the two sides is not evenly matched, and a group of adults and children are playing a game, even if the tactics are not appropriate, so what?
In this case, in the context of today's era.
If Sawamura Eijun wants to become a legend like Suzuki.
I'm afraid I have to work harder!
Even if he matched Suzuki's horror record at the time.
When people mentioned him, it was only Suzuki second.
Eijun Sawamura certainly doesn't want to be anyone's replacement.
He wants to become his own legend.
Become a symbol like Maradona and Jordan.
Then he couldn't be content with Suzuki's record.
He has to do better.
While Sawamura sighed, he fell into contemplation.
At this time, the duel on the field also entered an exciting moment.
Akutsu, who had been particularly stable before, seemed to be suddenly a little tired.
There were gaps and flaws in his pitching.
Although the Qingdo High School baseball team stood in the stands, there was no way to spot the subtle differences.
But on the court, in the strike zone, the difference should be obvious.
Why do you say that?
The reason is very simple.
Because the ball started to be hit gradually.
Osaka Kiryu, who hadn't scored any hits before, started getting hits one after another.
Their number one hitter smashed the ball out beautifully.
Then he ran to first base.
Can't do it?
Akutsu, the ace pitcher of the Xibang High School baseball team, the man who stood at the top of all pitchers, in the previous duel, he was still alive and well.
Why all of a sudden, it seems that all the energy has been drained.
The whole person showed a very tired state.
What's going on here?
Did something happen that they didn't know about?
There was chaos in the stands, and everyone was a little confused.
All these changes came so fast that they were caught off guard.
Which kind eldest brother can tell them what happened?
With the surprised expressions of the audience in the stands, Akutsu on the pitcher's mound has no psychological understanding at all.
Today's opponent, he originally thought he could easily deal with it.
Unexpectedly, the other party gave him a big surprise.
During the matchup, a very good freshman pitcher emerged.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit it.
The strength of the current first-year freshman is really incredible!
Last summer, he was a sophomore ace.
In the end, he lost to first-year Eijun Sawamura.
This year, another freshman appeared in front of him.
"I won't trip over the same stone twice!"
Akutsu, who had just been hit before, did not change his aura in any way, and even the rhythm of pitching remained the same as before.
His attitude made the batters on the field very uncomfortable.
It stands to reason that his former teammate had just hit a hit.
At this time, he should be as imposing as a rainbow, and he should defeat the opponent in one go.
But the reality is not so, I don't know why?
He felt a deep sense of ominousness from Akutsu on the opposite side.
He felt that he would be dealt with.
Not only that, he even felt that his teammates would be implicated by him.
how is this possible?
Even if he can't get a hit himself, it won't hurt his teammates, right?
With doubts in his heart, he involuntarily slowed down half a beat when swinging the bat.
Didn't fully swing the bat to the end.
"Ping!"
The baseball that was hit didn't even reach 5 meters before it landed on the ground and bounced back.
The batter has been completely stupid at home plate.
The ending was exactly what he least expected.
After the white ball bounced off the ground, it was confiscated by the third baseman at Westbonne High School in his glove. He then passed the ball to the second base without stopping. The second baseman caught the ball, stepped on the base bag, and then passed it to First base.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
"Get out!"
"Out!!"
Double kill! See you double kill!
It wasn't long before Morishita of Kiryu High School in Osaka won the double play.
Akujin, a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye.
Still came to the other party.
Because they are latecomers, doing the same action is more provocative.
on the stand.
The little friends who saw this scene were overjoyed.
The reason why they do this is not because the performance of the Xibon High School baseball team is too good.
It's because of Akutsu's attitude.
This guy is like a big fairy on weekdays, and he pretends to be a big tail wolf.
It seems that no matter how the opponent provokes him, he will not be moved.
I didn't expect to be so impatient this time.
Akutsu, who has never eaten human fireworks, was actually provoked by his opponent and fought back.
It really surprised them.
"Jiang is old and hot! Just relying on a first-year pitcher to compete with Akutsu, Osaka Kiryu High School, do you underestimate the star players?"
Star players, especially the top star players in the country.
All have the ability to change the outcome of the game by their own strength.
If Akutsu goes all out, can Xibong High School withstand it?
It is really a question worthy of study.
The little friends discussed this topic happily.
On the side, Sawamura Eijun's face was very serious.
The country is easy to change, but the character is hard to change!
The development of a pitcher's personality plays a very important role in the development of a pitcher's personality.
This is the result of the accumulation of time.
Akujin has a very high IQ, and he sees problems more thoroughly than anyone on the scene.
Although the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team suddenly appeared a freshman pitcher.
After playing, he also showed good strength.
But just by looking at the opponent's pitching, you can tell that his pitching is not the type that the batter can't hit.
As long as the Xibon High School baseball team can maintain its own rhythm.
If this game continues to drag on, it should be very beneficial for the players of the Xibang High School baseball team.
From this point of view, Akutsu seems to have no need to be so anxious.
But the reality is that he is in a hurry.
Maybe he didn't realize this, but his superhuman brain foreshadowed it in advance.
Did the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team really bring so much pressure to Akutsu?
Also one of the top pitchers in the country, Sawamura Eijun was deeply puzzled.
Under the wonderful performances of the two pitchers, you went back and forth and refused to give in to each other until the game reached the seventh inning.
The score between the two teams is still 0:0.
It looked like it was a close pitching battle.
But considering that the pitcher on the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team is just a freshman in the first year.
In terms of momentum, Osaka Kiryu undoubtedly has a greater advantage.
Of course, they also take greater risks.
So far in the competition, Akutsu has never shown any flaws.
Even if he deliberately put someone on base, it was to win a double kill.
He has already calculated all this to the extent that it is accurate.
The hitter of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team, in front of him, is like meat on a chopping board.
People can clean up how they want.
If you want to cut into diced meat, cut it into diced meat, and if you want to cut into shredded pork, you will become shredded pork.
They have no resistance at all.
On the contrary, it was the freshman pitcher who had shown many flaws so far.
It seems that she wants to attack him and get points from her, which is a matter of time.
In this thrilling duel, when someone from Xibang was on base.
The rookie pitcher, who seemed to be shaky, endured another inning with difficulty.
There was no chance for the opponent to continue to expand the score.
The situation is so stalemate for the time being!
There are still two remnants on the base bag.
The atmosphere in the lounge area of the Sibon High School baseball team was very lively.
Everyone was enthusiastically discussing the match just now.
From their mouths, it is not difficult to hear their relaxation.
There are two more chances, they are now gradually able to touch the ball, and they are able to hit the ball out.
According to this situation, if they want to score points, it will be a matter of minutes.
Next time, the next time will be able to score.
Looking at the elated teammates beside him, Akutsu's expression was so ugly that he died.
Since when?
These guys around him are just content to hit the ball out and score points?
The other party was just a freshman in the first year.
Shouldn't they show the aura of a giant?
When you hit these little guys, do you doubt life?
How can you just be content with hitting the ball out and scoring points?
The strength of a team determines how far the team can go?
Akujin suddenly lost interest.
What if they win the game?
As far as these guys are in front of them, in this state, whether they encounter Qingdao or trolls?
The results are not going to be any better.
Fail or fail!
This ending seems to have been predestined in advance.
What did Akutsu want to roar and say?
But that's not his character.
He could only walk up the pitching mound silently.
According to Akutsu's previous personality, when he was disappointed, he might just give up the game.
Let those complacent teammates go play by themselves.
He, Mr. Akutsu, will not serve you anymore!
But now, after time and years honed.
Akutsu is no longer the Akutsu he used to be.
He can no longer use these companions around him as tools.
In the days when the captain was missing, the four pillars of the team were missing.
It was these guys who believed in themselves that they came all the way to this point.
Even in order to repay this trust, he couldn't easily say leave and just leave.
The game still has to go on.
After all, the whistle for the end of the game has not yet sounded, and the result has not yet been determined.
As long as they persevere, they still have hope.
At this time, Akutsu is no longer himself.
It is the ace of Xibon High School.
For the rest of the pitchers, this may be the best time to integrate into the team.
But for Akutsu, a maverick pitcher, this behavior made him lose his original characteristics.
If he can keep his cool head all the time, and look at the game from the perspective of a bystander.
Maybe the final result of the game will really have some different changes.
But now, he has switched his angle to the position of the core ace of the team.
He became a part of the Westbourne High School baseball team.
Lost his greatest feature!
Wait until the second half of the seventh inning, after two outs.
The rookie pitcher Morishita who hit the field, what did he keenly discover?
Xibang, who originally exuded a mysterious and unpredictable atmosphere, now seems to form a whole formation.
Although it seems that the overall strength seems to be strong.
But don't forget!
Akutsu aside from his own mind, just looking at his pitching, he is not a very good guy.
Why did Sawamura Eijun say that Akutsu is only suitable for student baseball, and there is no way to survive in professional baseball?
It is for this reason.
His pitching characteristics are so unremarkable that he really wants to match those players in professional baseball.
They can absolutely hit the ball with their quick swing speed and strong force.
to be honest.
Akutsu's own pitching quality is just average.
When he was fully integrated into Xibang, on the surface Xibang seemed to be stronger.
But in fact, Xibong High School has entered a quagmire.
They can no longer keep their calm minds.
Now they are like a mess.
All the ingredients are mixed together.
The core brain has disappeared!
The flaws will naturally come out.
In the previous Xibang High School, there were no tricks to win and tricks to win by surprise.
But now they have obviously lost that magical feature.
Their characteristics have become single, and their own powerful power is no longer there.
"Ping!"
Seizing the opportunity, Morishita decisively swung the bat out of his hand.
Abruptly knocked that ball out!
When the small white ball flew into the sky, a comfortable smile appeared on his face.
very good!
It looks very perfect.
1
The white ball fell to the ground. Moriichi rushed out first.
He crossed first base in one breath and ran to second base.
Two were out, and there was someone at second base.
At this time, the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team actually chose to make a substitution again.
This time, he was replaced by a player who looked particularly strong, and even had a serious overweight.
Takamiya Baisong.
"It's a newcomer again!"
This time, not only the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team, but also the other melon eaters in the stands were surprised.
They never imagined that the supervisor of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team would be so calm?
This behavior is incredible!
He actually kept it, such a batter to the end.
The fourth in Osaka High School, although not yet at the level of a star player.
But looking at his swing, you can tell that he should be a very strong batter.
If it wasn't for Akutsu's strong suppression before, they would have scored a home run long ago.
In fact, during the previous game.
He won a lot of home runs!
More hits...
There is no doubt that this is a very amazing player.
Even the star pitcher, when facing this guy.
I'm afraid I don't dare to have any intentions.
Because maybe one of their carelessness will directly create two completely different results.
Such a player, at such a critical moment, was actually replaced.
Then, how terrifying the strength of the replaced guy should be?
In such a fierce match, most of them definitely kept such a hitter until now!
Now it's not just the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team, some can't understand them anymore.
Many fans in the morning, as well as players from other teams.
He was equally dazed.
How many trump cards are hidden in the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team?
They are completely unknown.
I can't guess what these guys have in mind.
However, they must pay attention to the batter who is on the court.
Can replace the original fourth-hand substitute.
Don't talk about this kind of thing, people have never even heard of it.
They are even more impatient now, want to see what kind of performance this guy can show?
Without much waiting, the opponent shot the first ball.
That earth-shattering aura seemed to overturn the entire strike zone.
"Boom!"
A huge whistling sound spread throughout the stadium.
Almost everyone is silent about this stick.
They had only seen this kind of terrifying power once before.
That was the time of Chunjia!
Pharmacist High School, which was born out of nowhere, is the fourth player in their team, Thunder City.
Relying on a bat in his hand, he set off a powerful frenzy in the entire Koshien.
Now, there is another man, who also uses the bat in his hand to set off another frenzy.
"Ping!"
After the white ball was hit, it flew high.
Everyone's eyes are chasing the trace of the ball.
Until I watched the white ball fly out of the Koshien arena.
"It's out, it's out!!! A super strong fighter from Osaka Kiryu High School, Takamiya-san's fatal blow!"
Originally, everyone thought that Xibong, who would definitely win in the end, was not able to continue in this duel in the end.
In the end, it was another team.
A wealthy family that everyone thought had fallen.
Relying on a first-year backup pitcher and another, previously unknown second-year strong hitter.
They overturned the Xibong High School and the myth of Akutsu.
What said top star players can overturn star players?
It's all nonsense!
These two guys on the court are indeed very powerful in a certain way.
It's hard to make people think about it without looking at it!
But to be honest, the overall strength of the two of them is relatively average.
That pitcher isn't the type that batters can't hit.
Xibang High School was a little anxious at the last moment.
Otherwise, it shouldn't be so hard to hit the ball with their ability.
It is also possible to get points.
As for the beater.
Immediately after the end of the substitute play, he was replaced on the court.
What does this mean?
This shows that this guy is also a one-time nuclear weapon.
That is to say, there is a bit of speciality in the attack.
When it comes to strength, it can't replace the original fourth stick at all.
However, the seemingly powerful Xibang High School.
An opponent that the King's Qingdao High School baseball team had to face up to.
I was defeated by such two unexpected players.
And the defeat was neat and tidy, not at all sloppy.
This heart-warming scene was staged on the field of Koshien.
After the game, more than 20,000 spectators stood up and offered their highest respect.
The strength shown by these two teams deserves their respect.
They are really great!
It's so awesome that people can't take their eyes off.
Powerful!
This is the real toughness!
In the second game of Koshien's 8-in-4, it was Osaka Kiryu who finally won.
……
The myth of Akutsu was ended. As one of the top 4 candidates, they unexpectedly lost.
The remaining two games were quite calm.
In the end, it was two teams with exceptional strength.
Bailong meets Didong, a fellow from the Qingdao High School baseball team.
This is also a very classic game.
In the end, Bailong High School relied on its own mobility to break the three-dimensional blockade of Little Sun.
With a score of 3:2, they successfully advanced to the top 4.
On the other side, the final match was also decided.
The two sides of the game are a troll from Hokkaido and a super dark horse Kagoshima.
Although Kagoshima is very capable of tossing their ace, they are also very talented.
It gives the impression that they have that kind of dark horse potential.
But at this point in the game, a team with only the potential of a dark horse is hard to eat.
So they did not escape the fate of being eliminated in the end.
Also, the score between the two teams is quite different.
16:0!
In an eight-for-four game, the Trolls Otujimaki High School baseball team lived up to their name.
Still relying on the incomparably strong strength completely crushed the opponent.
Without giving the opponent any chance to breathe, he directly pressed the opponent to the ground and rubbed it.
This is the Trolls, a team determined to take down the Qingdo High School baseball team.
When they played against each other in the previous spring competition, their strength was clearly not as strong as they are now.
In just half a year, not even half a year, that is, 5 months.
This team, which had been left far behind by the Qingdao High School baseball team before, stood up again, and burst into a serious threat to the Qingdao High School baseball team.
Judging from the strength shown by these teams now, the hope of the trolls finally reaching the end is probably very, very big.
In the semi-finals starting tomorrow, the groupings of the four teams have also been released.
The Qingdo High School baseball team met Kiryu Osaka, who was upset today.
As for the White Dragon who defeated Didong, their opponent was naturally a troll.
In the Kanto Conference, Kanagawa Goki, who caused a lot of trouble for the Qingdo High School baseball team.
In this feast of collisions between giants.
He was eliminated by the trolls before he even got into the top eight.
For the last one, either luck is against the sky, or strength is against the sky.
There is no one to mess with.
