Diamond Ace Takanono

Chapter 386 No Ball to Play
"Bump—" A ball flew over the infield, and was stopped on the spot by a cheetah rushing to eat it.

"out!"

"Hoo--nice! Yoichi!" There was a huge shout from the pitcher's mound, as well as calling the senior by his first name.

Looking closely, the pitcher was sweating suspiciously, and seemed to be so flustered that he couldn't choose what to say.

"Cheer up!" Kuramo raised his foot and made a pre-movement of kicking his ass, "We've already been out twice, so focus on the next one!"

The flustered Sawamura Eijun, who didn't know how to answer, didn't respond after hearing this sentence, and turned his head directly to see the home plate.

Only one shortstop who is really hot is left behind. If he is not still in the game, the ignorant throwing gesture in front will be kicked hard.

'Hoo la ho, don't look like that, you've already got two outs~ Relax, you have to fully swing your arms. '

Eijun, who returned to pitching, turned cautious.

It's the bottom of the seventh inning with two outs and a man on third base.As soon as Eijun came on the field, Narimiya Naruto, who was five bats, grabbed a straight ball and scored a hit. After Hayakawa connected in series, and there were other bats to advance, Inachi now scored another point.

"Touch—" The ball that was swinging around at hand was really hard to hit when I saw it for the first time, and the release point was hidden at the end, so the speed of the ball would be much faster than it actually was.

'How did the two of them fight out just now! ’ Nine bats a bat, watched the ball flip infield, dropped the bat halfway through first base, and was out.

"Three outs, switch offense and defense!"

"Yo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!!!"

Eijun, who finally passed the inning, yelled, and was dragged off the mound by the shortstop behind him by the collar, "Don't affect our school's image here, you bastard, come down!"

"Finally got three outs, isn't it worth celebrating?!" The pitcher's upper body was dragged to the bench, and his butt and legs were still trying to stick to the mound.

"Whose reason do you think! If brother comes up, he won't lose another point at all!" Lang Zhi made up the knife from the side, and together with Cang Chi, they went down quickly with the pitcher on their side.

But in the auditorium, many people have noticed this matter.

"What's the matter, that pitcher, don't you want to end?"

"It's so funny. He's already three out. Could it be that he still wants to keep losing points like this?"

"Hahahaha, Qingdao, why does it feel very different from the style I thought before?"

Of course, this kind of performance that affects the image of the school is also worth a few hand knives and flying kicks. Eijun was not discouraged by the physical pain. Soon he picked up the bat and said confidently, "It seems I still want to make a move, it’s been so many rounds, and I haven’t scored yet hahaha.”

This seemingly unintentional knife threw many people, "This bastard!"

But Director Kataoka stopped Eijun at the entrance, "Wait, where are you going?"

Eijun asked a very presumptuous question again, "Go and fight, boss, is it possible that you forgot?"

The supervisor ignored him and just looked back with his eyes.

Behind him, someone picked up the bat, and the contact between the bat and the bat made a long crisp sound, followed by the sound of footsteps around him, a figure crossed Eijun, and took off the helmet on his head Wear it on your own head, "Borrow the helmet."

"Brother?"

Takano smiled and stood in front.

At the same time, Director Kataoka raised his hand to apply for player adjustment.

"Notice of Qingdao's application for player adjustment, six bats, left fielder, Gao Jun!"

Cheng Gongming on the mound listened to the whole broadcast with his breath held, and then let out a long breath, "Left fielder!" Did Qingdao still not give up struggling? !
"Hmph—" Supervisor Daoshi twisted his neck, noncommittal to Supervisor Qingdao's choice to mobilize the atmosphere.

But it is undeniable that the effect has come.

Above the head, the voice suddenly became louder.

"Is Qingdou finally going to be an ace? Why left fielder?"

"It's the eighth round, what's the use of Qing Dao's proxy fight, they're all playing in the next position."

There were also shouts from pure fans, "It's you, the one who came to watch the game for you, finally came out for me!"

"Go out! Qing Dao scores!"

Discussions about Seido's defeat stopped quickly and turned into discussions about Seido's ace and expectations for his home run ability.

Of course Takano knew that the supervision was to boost the morale of the team, and the game entered the eighth inning, but the first point that Seidou was looking forward to was never achieved, and even the most persistent players would unconsciously let go.

'I know my mission, but ah—'Looking down, it's my former partner, and looking up, it's a pitcher who has been arguing all the time,'How can you not be selfish!How can you not expect yourself to fight out! '

"Huh—" He took a deep breath to stop his trembling, and after half a year, they finally met on the field, "Ming Gongming! '

Cheng Gongming, who was on the opposite side, also immediately caught the beater's excitement, "It's just right!I want to strike you too, I've been thinking about it for a long time! '

So there was no more eye contact, and the moment the chief judge gave the order, the duel began directly.

The pitcher raises his leg, and the entire center of gravity begins to move forward with the body, and the final point in front is the hitter!
This situation is so similar, it even coincides with the situation last summer, just recalling it again, all the emotions of the seal pour out, the sourness that cannot be washed away when tears fill the eye sockets, the stuffiness that swallows the pain in the stomach The pain came out.

In an instant, the exhaustion from the first 7 rounds was swept away, and the lack of strength in each muscle was filled by the unwillingness of the past.

"Boom—" The ball crossed an arc, almost embedded in the inside corner of the hitter. Gao Zhiye raised his arm to avoid the ball.

"Bad ball!"

Immediately afterwards, the hitter stood close to the inside corner, as if responding to the ball just now.

'Smelly brat!Today I must take revenge! '

Another inside corner, the hitter evaded again.

"Bad ball!"

'Standing so close, hit the ball if you have the ability! '

The hitter stood in the inner corner again, and Hayakawa sensed the hitter's purpose at this time, and used the glove and the signal to pull the pitcher's pitch away, "Ming-san, don't be irritated by him!"Take your time and don't take bad shots! '

But it was too late, Cheng Gongming, who was half-dead by his own memories, might have a chance.

"Bad ball!"

If you are not careful, when Cheng Gongming comes back to his senses, it will be a situation where there are three balls and no strikes.

On the opposite side, the hitter stretched out his feet leisurely, first bumped his toes, shook off the sand hanging from the spikes, then swept left and right on the strike zone, and finally turned left and right to check if his bat was dented down.

The expression was even more serious, with a relaxed expression in the forest, sitting and watching the clouds rise and fall, and the fire that the pitcher had just suppressed was rekindled.

The catcher's face darkened secretly at this moment, and he also understood that if he let the hitter dangle in front of the pitcher, he might not be able to control the pitcher, so he didn't give any instructions, and he swung the glove to the edge, "whatever, walk him. '

"Bad ball!"

"Four balls, walk!"

Takano blinked at Hayakawa who stood up, and no matter how he reacted, he dropped his bat and walked to first base.

'It's more motivating for the batters behind than to hit out individually and make sure someone is on the bases.But then again, I don't have a ball to play'

　I feel like I'm getting used to my decadent self.
　　Must cheer up tomorrow! !
