Diamond Ace Takanono

Chapter 244 Marching to Third Base
"Safe!" When the ball was passed back to the field by Carlos, Gao Zhiye had already climbed up from the second base bag.

He charged too hard just now, and he jumped on it with his whole body.

"Bah." Dust also ran into his mouth.

Second baseman Shirakawa patted Takano's shoulder with his glove, his expression seemed displeased.

It was the second time to run to second base, what Bai He said just now was, 'Run fast, there will be no next time. '

So Takano thought it was necessary for him to greet him again, "Hi, I'm here again."

He was stared at by the other party for a second.

Rubbing his nose, the pitcher couldn't help but worry that the opponent would hit a hard ball or something, thinking that he would meet the second baseman again soon in the next inning.

'This pitcher is really arrogant, he must hit it in the next game, take a good look at his face. ’ the second baseman thought through gritted teeth.

Of course, in the entire stadium, the one who gritted his teeth the most about Takano's hit was Narimiya Naruto.

"Ming-san, that's it, don't look back!" Hayakawa took off his mask and ran to the mound when the smoke at second base reached the highest point, and now he is holding his senior's cheeks with both hands, Prevent the other party from looking behind.

"Zao—Chuan—what are you doing? I'm a senior!" And the sand on this guy's gloves rubbed against Ace's face!
But Hayakawa was still very determined. After the pitcher kicked twice, he still insisted on this move, "Take a deep breath——Exhale——Inhale——"

This met with stronger resistance from the pitcher. In the end, Cheng Gongming was no longer obsessed with going to the runner, and began to focus on escaping himself from the confinement, "Say what you want, I don't want to look at that guy A smug expression."

Hayakawa observed twice, and found that the other party's expression had finally calmed down, or that all the anger had been hidden below the surface of the water, so he let go of his hand: "The other party doesn't have any complacent expression."

"Huh? Which side are you on!" Cheng Gongming didn't understand this guy, but he vaguely understood in his heart that this 'overstepping' behavior was out of concern for him, and Hayakawa was still very reliable every time he did things. of.

"Which side am I on?" Hayakawa was stopped by this question, then thought for a while, and said, "Of course I'm on Mingsang's side."

"Then you..." He didn't let me vent my emotions happily.

Hayakawa interrupted the opponent: "Just because you are on Ming-san's side, I hope you can shoot better. Since the opponent has already hit base, just treat him as an ordinary runner. I know that in the past few months, You are always actively or passively receiving information from the opponent, and gradually the entire pitching world is occupied by the opponent."

Cheng Gongming turned his head to one side, hiding his other thoughts with an impatient expression.

"But, don't you want to be the number one left-handed pitcher in Japan? Your perspective should be on the pitchers all over Japan, so it doesn't matter if he hits base. What's more, we are still leading now." In the same area, If Qing Dao cannot be pressed here, Dao Shi will definitely not be able to qualify.

But here, in order to let the pitcher focus on the situation in the field, he leads the topic to another place.

"..." In the next second, Cheng Gongming pinched the catcher's chin and squeezed the flesh on the catcher's face together.

Hayakawa frowned, looking troubled but not daring to escape, and made the pitcher laugh.

"Go back, I understand what you mean. It's just a first-year pitcher, and I won't argue with him."

These words seem to have spared Gao Zhiye, but in fact, in the current few confrontations, the opponent has the upper hand in both offense and defense.

The catcher was kicked off the mound, and he turned his head step by step, watching the pitcher turn and meet the runner on second base.

But just a second later, it turned around again, right into the worried catcher's eyes.

Shrugging his shoulders, Cheng Gongming said that he was about to enter the third grade, how could he get angry easily because of this little thing.

'Huh - it looks like it's not angry. Only then did the catcher return to the home plate and squat down with peace of mind. It was too difficult. The pitcher's emotions were really difficult to appease, especially when the opponent was a senior.

"It's really hard work." Kuramochi smiled and watched Hayakawa come back. The catcher didn't answer, just smiled and put on the mask.

"play ball!"

The game started again, and the situation was completely different at this time, Qingdao's side was only one step away from scoring.

Cheng Gongming looked at the batter on the opposite side like a child with ADHD, constantly swinging the bat, and it was difficult to restrain his strong desire to attack.

In the end, he put all these emotions into the first ball he threw at the opponent.

The pitcher stepped out quickly, and the shadow of the ball flew to his eyes in a flash. In such a few tenths of a second, Kuramochi's eyes were always chasing the target.

At this time, Qingdao's plan is clearly revealed.

"Bump—" Kuramochi held the bat in front of his eyes. This is one of his housekeeping skills. Although it is not as perfect as Eijun, it can at least play the role of pushing the base.

"safe!"

"out!"

With the umpires at first and third bases all making their verdicts, the Seido side has come to a critical moment.

"One point! One point!"

"The storage is better!"

"Master Cheetah, although you didn't show your sprint talent and almost failed in the sprint, but you sacrificed yourself for the team, everyone will remember your contribution."

Kuramochi originally wanted to maintain his handsome image, but was overwhelmed by the last sentence, "Zawa—mura—"

When the calm man Bai Zhou passed by, he heard the message from Master Cheetah, "That man's strength is still there, so be careful."

This bunt was not easy at all. The ball from the outside corner almost made Kuramochi give up, but Takanono had already started running on second base, and the catcher had already stood up, ready to catch third base.

So he tossed the bat far away and barely smacked the ball toward first base, but it finally did.

Cheng Gongming is very fidgety, which can be seen from his actions on the mound.

But soon, he thought of something, took a deep breath, and only looked at the third base twice, and didn't care.

After all, the next hitter has come.

Gao Zhiye observed quietly, but didn't notice the other party's expression, he was always looking at the pitcher's feet.

'Now there is someone on third base with one out, Baizhou or Xiaochun, whoever comes, this point is a certainty. With that in mind, he didn't want to take too much risk, and before the pitcher glared at him, he honestly returned to the third base bag.

Gently touching the brim of his hat, Hakushu confirmed his mission, which was to send the runner back to home base.In Qingdao, apart from Eijun, who is recognized as a short game master, Hakushu also belongs to the category with strong short game ability.

However, it is not easy for Cheng Gongming to succeed in this matter.

　There is another dinner party on Friday night. I hope it will be canceled because of the epidemic. A group of people will eat with the biggest leader.
