Diamond Ace Takanono

Chapter 24 Compact Attack Rhythm

On the other side, Miyuki who was running, his cell phone rang.

'a? '

Opened it and saw it was Takano.

"Senior Miyuki, I'm at the stadium." Then came a photo of the stadium.

"Pa——" Miyuki squeezed the phone tightly, "This brat, only at this kind of time will he call senior properly."

With a smirk on his lips, he thought of a way to fight back.

Looking at Miyuki's message, Takano was a little confused.

"Congratulations, I hope you can win today. I am so envious, we have been eliminated. But although I am not training in the team, I still insist on my own menu every day. I am running now, but it is strange. I always feel that someone Following me." Followed by Miyuki's selfie, followed by a long and narrow street.

Takano felt nervous, zoomed in on the street corner in the photo, and saw a translucent figure peeping here.

"Ah——" Gao Zhiye immediately covered his mouth. Fortunately, both sides lined up to salute at this moment, and everyone started to cheer, so Gao Zhiye didn't lose this person.

However, the people sitting next to Takano suffered. Hayakawa and Langzhi’s ears were buzzing. Hayakawa probably understood that Miyuki was teasing Takano again. The single-cell Langzhi thought that his stepbrother was because Excited for the debut of the first army.

"It's okay, you can play right away when the third grade of the First Army leaves." Lang Zhi patted his stepbrother on the shoulder.

Hayakawa Akira took out the phone from the listless Takano, "Pfft—".

He replied to Miyuki Kazuya.

"Yuki-kun, I'm Hayakawa. Don't scare Gao-kun like this, please don't download this kind of strange software."

"Hey, is it Hayakawa, how is it, Gao Jun's face."

"Very bad, let me tell you how you found Gao Jun's weakness."

"Hee hee, secret. You should persuade him to watch more Japanese variety shows. If he watches more, he won't be frightened by such crappy photos."

The communication between the two was forcibly interrupted by Takano, who deleted all the text messages with Miyuki.

Under Hayakawa Akira's sympathetic eyes, Gao Zhiye barely calmed down. At this time, the air defense siren sounded and the game officially started.

The Seongnam Juniors hit first, and their run was exactly as Coach Ninomiya predicted.

The first hit was Carl Ross, the senior Blackstone who started, and he was living his information in his mind. The first ball was a straight ball high inside the corner, but it deviated from the strike zone and went straight to the batter's face.

Karl Ross hurriedly avoided, Heishi took off his hat, although he was apologizing, but his eyes were fixed on the other party.

"Is it intentional, it seems that I am afraid of me."Karl Rose recovered his posture, seemingly unaffected by it just now.

On the second ball, Captain Yitang moved to the outer corner.

A straight ball from the outside corner, with a speed of 130 in the second half, Karl Ross hits the stick directly.

"Bump—" The ball was hit and landed in the right field. At some point, the right field had already taken two steps forward. At this time, it happened to receive the bounced ball. Forced out.

"That ball was heavy," he passed to the second hitter.

The second bat is Kimura, a high-hitting player who is feared by Kinoshita. His batting strategy is as long as he can penetrate the first and second bases or between the second and third bases.

The first ball, an outside corner kick, was controlled just enough to miss the edge. Kimura held back the stick, but the referee called a strike.

Kimura was a little surprised. The pitcher's profile didn't say he had such good ball control. Could it be because of his state today?

The second ball, high inside corner, Kimura hastily hit the bat, the baseball rushed into the sky, Yitang threw off his mask, adjusted his position under the glare of the sun, and was about to walk to the rest area, the baseball was caught in the glove, Yi Tang raised his glove, and the referee ruled out the game.

"This pitcher is in good shape today, and he shot the corner kick very well." The third pitcher Hirosue nodded.

The third batting technique is very good. He is good at hitting the ball into various gaps on the field. He is a left hitter and aims at left field. The third baseman is a bit forward. , there was a small gap in the middle, he was a little skeptical, but the ball had already flown over, the inside corner kick, a little sweet, landed on the No. 2 position of the Jiugong grid.

'Did he miss the shot? Didn't he say he was in good shape'.

But in the next second, as soon as the three sticks dropped the bat, he saw that the gap was filled in an instant. The shortstop ran near the landing point as soon as he took the shot. After receiving it, he turned around and pierced sideways. In the Kinoshita Youth Baseball game, there were three ups and three downs, and the number of balls was very low.

"Cut, I was calculated." At this time, the third player also understood that the other party had taken into account his characteristic of playing the gap, and specially created the gap as a trap.

"Coach, the opponent seems to have studied us very carefully." He returned to the bench and said to the expressionless coach.

"Well, there is no way to be studied, but there are so many accidents on the court, there is no way to rely on pre-calculation, believe in your strike strength, and then tear apart the opponent's defense little by little."

"Yes--"

It was Kinoshita's turn to attack, the first three bats, Coach Ninomiya piled up the players with the highest hitting rate in the team, any one of them hit base, and when it was the turn of the fourth power hitter Ido, he could score quickly, Even if Yitang is not in good shape, he will use a strike or a high fly to push the base pack, and the hit line can be connected in series.

The arrangement of the Kinoshita Little League has achieved good results for many teams, and today's Seongnam Little League is no exception. Although everyone already knows the characteristics of the Kinoshita Little League line, losing points is always inevitable.

In the first inning, Kinoshita scored first with a double by four-bat Ido.

At the end of the inning, the Kinoshita hitters had their fifth at bat, and the score was 1-0, with Kinoshita taking the lead.

"The old men are very good," Gao Zhiye let out a long sigh of relief. The lead by one point at the start is still secondary. The important thing is that he can also feel from the off-court that the hitters of the Chengnan Little League players are very uncomfortable, and it is too late to show Their own characteristics are all out of the game, and they probably have to adapt to at least two rounds, and at that time Kinoshita didn't know how many points they were leading.

Just as Takano expected, Kinoshita's senior Heishi used three innings to make the Seongnan Juniors go up and down three times.

By the fourth inning, Carlos, who was gnashing his teeth, played again, but the pitcher on the field had been replaced by Nozawa, and their early adaptation had to start again.

"Senior Heishi is in very good condition, why not let him face the next wave of hitters?" Gao Zhiye couldn't see the bench, so he couldn't see Coach Ninomiya's face. He felt that such an arrangement was very unreasonable. "Although this will make the opponent's hitters lose their status, we have dropped a pitcher who is in good shape and replaced a new pitcher."

"No way", Hayakawa made a gesture to cover Takano's mouth, but fortunately Takano shut up, "Coach Ninomiya is not someone who relies on an ace pitcher to win, he thinks the team's victory It should be achieved through multi-party cooperation and detailed preparation, so for him, the pitcher is just one piece of the winning map."

Senior Nozawa, who was new to the field, had a serious face, and the first ball was low from the outside corner, but it deviated from the strike zone. Karl Ross raised his hat.

'It's really a good plan, but do you miss the pitcher? Is this bad ball the catcher's match, or is the pitcher's condition very bad? '

On the second ball, Karl Rose was not going to hit the stick and wanted to take a closer look.

As a result, the second ball was a reddish straight ball.

Gazing at the catcher cryptically, Karl Rose set up his striking posture again, one good and one bad.

On the third ball, Karl Ross is not going to wait any longer, and now guesses that the pitcher is not in good shape, and swings the bat from the inside corner.

"I didn't play well, go to first base." After the crisp sound of the bat hitting, there was a commotion on the field.

The infielder just rolled the ball, the third baseman stepped forward to deal with it, and the captain yelled "Quick first base!"

In the hustle and bustle, like a black panther, Karl Rose quickly rushed to first base, and at this time the third baseman had just picked up the ball.

Looking up and passing sideways quickly, in the eyes of the third baseman, Karl Rose was almost as fast as the ball. The two of them reached the first base together. The first base judge hesitated and spread his hands.

"Safe!" The Seongnam Little League bench and audience cheered.

"It's a lie." Although Lang Zhi has also read the information, but in the actual arena, it is still very scary.

It was rare for Gao Zhiye to agree with Lang Zhi: "Yeah, the aggressiveness is so strong, my skin is covered with goosebumps."

With Carl Rose on base and non-stop harassment, Nozawa, who was out of shape, threw two bad balls to the second bat.

"Timeout", Hayakawa's gripping heart also fell. He is also a catcher, and his personality is more of an old lady type. When the pitcher throws a bad ball, Hayakawa starts to think of words in his mind, and when the pitcher throws the second ball By that time, he was ready to go up to comfort the pitcher.

"Pitchers are a delicate bunch of guys."

After the timeout ended, Nozawa seemed to relax after taking a break. He then solved the next two, three and four bats in a row. The fourth inning ended with one hit and 0 points.

At this point, Kinoshita's victory is basically confirmed. Nozawa's state quickly recovered after two balls, so it is very likely that the first round of the Seongnam Little League will not be his turn.

"Cut", Karl Ross played very aggrieved in today's game, otherwise he wouldn't be able to hit, and if he hit, his flying kicks were useless, and he couldn't get back points at all.

At the end of the game, 2:0, the Kinoshita Junior League won, and all the players of the Seongnam Junior League, who swallowed the defeat, were as frustrated as Carlos.

"Damn it, they have done too much research on us, it feels too uncomfortable to fight."

"Yes."

"I didn't expect that the last big competition of the third grade would end like this."

"I kind of want to see their research materials..."

Compared with the low-spirited Seongnam Little League, the Kinoshita Little League's bench seats and spectator seats are very relaxed.

"Gao Jun, don't look at it, we will gather outside the venue later."

"Okay", looking away, the phone vibrated.

Miyuki again, Takano originally planned to delete it directly, but the message contained Miyuki's first sentence.

"Congratulations on your victory—" The reason behind the number of words is not displayed.

Although it bothered Koichi, Takano would not refuse other people's blessings, so he clicked on it.

"Congratulations on your victory, haha, but it's none of your business, anyway, you're sitting in the auditorium. Are you going to finish training early tomorrow? Come out with me to meet someone."

　Last week was used for work reports, and this week was used for Q3 group project approval. I don’t understand, how can we have time to work?
