Diamond Ace Takanono

Chapter 189 Hongo VS Takanono

"Time!" Miyuki paused again, met Furutani Miyu head-on and looked a little nervous, as if to say, 'What's wrong with me? '

"Haha, it's fine. I'm here to remind you to wipe off your sweat." By the way, the pitcher's throwing rhythm was deliberately prolonged.

"Oh." Jiang Gu obeyed obediently.

'Sure enough, it still doesn't work. I'm sweating more and more. If this continues, I might suffer from heat stroke. 'Of course this is the worst possibility. As long as Qingdao's offensive end can buy enough time, with the physical fitness of sports students, this heat can still be overcome.

"I've wiped off my sweat." Just like the children in Jianggu Kindergarten, they reported their results to the teacher.

"Yoshi, that hitter just tackled it beautifully. Trust your own pitch!"

"Ok!"

In the second half of the fourth round, although the sweet ball was still caught in the middle, overall, this round was handled by Jiang Gu independently without losing points.

"Nice!"

In this way, Qingdao won a very precious time.

Supervisor Nitta raised his eyebrows, and he had to say, no wonder Qingdao chose so many first-years to be on the bench, they were all bold kids.

"Be careful with that Takano." In the fifth round, Takano replaced the original Sakai, and now has eight sticks, and in front of him are Miyuki and Hakushu.

The troll is not afraid of a single strong player, but he is afraid of batting in tandem. Miyuki's batting average, slugging percentage, and hitting percentage are all ranked in the top five in Seido like Takano. On the court, the threat is no worse than the center line.

"Hi!"

When the big troll catcher heard this, he paid special attention. After all, the point Gao Zhiye ran out just now was basically mocking his arm strength.

"Haha, Miyuki-senpai, we actually played in the same inning. There is no one on the base, can you still hit the base?" Takano kept harassing Miyuki with nonsense while putting on his helmet, of course he said this In the background color, there is imperceptible anxiety.

"Of course."

Miyuki said the truth, but of course he was still worried. This pitcher is a new pitcher. He is not even familiar with the batting rhythm, so he can't guarantee that he can get on base.

"Bump—" He waited for the ball he wanted, but it happened to be within the defensive range, "out!"

'Speaking of which, the team's defense has not made any mistakes so far. '

Yuxing returned to the bench, and had to accept the teasing eyes of everyone, 'Really! '

Of course, he had nothing to say, shrinking his figure to the side.

The confrontation on the field continued.

"Peng—" After entangled with two balls, Baizhou was tricked into swinging his bat by a fingering ball, "The hitter is out!"

"Be careful with that finger ball!" This is Baizhou's warning to Gao Zhiye.

Yaba Takano nodded. In the big troll team, almost all the pitchers have a good fork ball, which is mixed with the straight ball. It is really difficult to distinguish, and they will miss it accidentally.

But he is really a "good supervisor". The whole team practiced pointing fingers. There is no instruction from Nitta Supervisor. Gao Zhiye absolutely does not believe it.

The big troll catcher is very cautious. He squats in the outside corner and doesn't want to walk.

He had to think about it before he could send the sprinter to the base again. At this time, he needed to use the outside corner to weaken Gao Zhiye's strength. After all, pitchers have strong arms, and it is easy to hit the inside corner.

"Strike!" On the last ball, he even gave him a cross from the outside corner. Gao Zhiye had to admit that maybe it was the influence of his mood, and this blow was slightly led away.

"Three outs, switch sides!"

From this point of view, the troll's big trump card is gradually improving.

. . .

"At present, the two sides have reached a deadlock." In the director's room, the host guided the guests to explain the new situation on the field.

"Yes, but it is also foreseeable. After all, both schools are famous for their pitching battles, so it is reasonable for them to end up in a pitching battle."

"So, this also confirms Tanaka-san's previous views on 'XX News'. Maybe in the future high school baseball, it will no longer be an ace to support the whole game."

"Well, I think in the future Koshien, more supervision will be affected. This year, both teams are supported by a lot of pitchers, and they both went to the end."

"However, many schools don't want to have only one pitcher. The important thing is that there are no good pitchers..."

Then the topic was directed at the baseball study abroad system of private schools, which gathers good seedlings from all over the country into one school. If things go on like this, Japanese high school baseball will no longer have a place for grassroots schools.

As the commentary said, most of the spectators in the field also intuitively felt the anxiety of the game from the numbers on the scoreboard.

From the 4th to the 6th inning, the scoreboards of both sides were full of 0s, and the desire for points was undisguised on the faces of every player.

"Spicy shrimp!" In the first half of the 7th inning, Isashiki hit a high bad ball, which hit the back of the shortstop.

"Yo blind!"

"Senior fox dog, good job!"

Naturally, there was an explosion of cheers from Qingdao's side, and next was Yucheng. As long as Yucheng could fight, one point, one point ahead, the victory that the people of Qingdao longed for could be won by one point.

But at this time, there was action on the other side.

"Notice of player change at Troll High School...Left fielder, Nakata-kun, pitcher, Hongo-kun."

The atmosphere in Qingdao, which was still boiling just now, instantly became colder by two points.

"Finally out, third pitcher."

"Another pitcher who can throw 150."

Masamune Hongo could feel the scrutiny from Seidou's bench, and wanted to vent his emotions, so the pitch in his hand became heavier.

He wanted to compete head-to-head with that pitcher, but Director Nitta kept getting in the way.

In the last round, after six rounds, Jiang Gu experienced two rounds of recovery as if his state was reborn, and then quickly declined with his physical strength, and his state declined.

After the troll's big four hit a hit, Qingdou pulled Takano to the mound to fill in the hole again. Fortunately, he didn't lose a point, but in this case, Takano has played more than three innings. If you count his standing The time on the court is already close to 6 innings, and during the rest time in the middle, there will be interruptions caused by strike tasks.

Such Takano, come to confront the Hongo Masamune who is full of physical strength.

Director Nitta said cheerfully: "Go, Hongo, you have always wanted to fight that pitcher, I will let you play now." He has already planned several innings, and he is waiting for Hongo to play, of course he is very happy.

'I'm not happy at all! 'It was another shot, and Hongo, who was in the trial throw stage, was already firing on all cylinders.
