Chapter 388 The Spring Conference Comes to an End
"bump--"

In the second half of the eighth inning, as soon as he played, the style of the game changed instantly, and Dao Shi's players all started to play well.

It’s just that it’s not always so smooth. The second bat, Baihe, once again hit the defensive range of the infield, “Tsk, that trajectory is so disgusting.”

"out!"

Sweeping away the haze of the first game, Eijun's pitching became brighter.

"Is this pitcher in good condition? Obviously he was able to hit just now."

"Yeah, the speed of the ball is not fast, but why didn't both of them play well?"

"Maybe it has something to do with Daoshi's strategy change. It feels like Daoshi's swing has become more active."

This can be regarded as a great help to Qingdao. They originally thought that with Sawamura's strength, they would be hit repeatedly.

"If you don't look carefully at Sawamura's ball, it's easy to miss it." A left fielder who knows Sawamura's pitching situation recited, and if you are behind this person, you need to be very careful, and the baseballs you hit will fly all over the sky. .

"Bump—" Just as he finished speaking, a ball that pierced through the line of defense ran towards the ground.

"Brother!!" Rong Chun's panicked voice came over.

"Don't panic!" Gao Zhiye stood in front skillfully, "What's the matter with you, you're already out! Give me some cheer!"

"Hi!"

In the second half of the eighth inning, with two outs and a man on the first base, he faced Daoshi with four bats.

Everyone broke into a cold sweat for Rong Chun.

'Here, be sure to pitch low, and even if you hit it, it won't be a home run. Miyuki patted the ground, the compatibility of the four sticks of rice is too soft for Keijun, the metal stick with a wider hitting surface, if the movement of the hand is slight, it can be carried out with brute force.

Today's coaching staff is very quiet, and almost all difficulties are left to the pitchers themselves to solve.

"I can't help it, since I want to train the pitcher" the catcher's glove is placed on the inside corner of the hitter, "then it will be more exciting!" '

"Hey," Eijun grinned, not afraid.He's never been one to hold back, and he'll make others agree with that too!
He raised his leg and strode forward, a white light pierced directly into the attacker's knee.

"Bump—" People who saw Eijun pitching for the first time would generally be a little out of step with this rhythm, and Daoshi's four-bat also became a clean baseball.

"nice shot!"

'Then second ball, come here! 'Miyuki came to the outside corner again, let's use Eijun's best at alternating inside and outside corners to create a swing!

"Bump—" Siba Shangang thought he had adapted to the rhythm, but he still couldn't grasp the second ball well, "What's the matter, the inner corner is fast and the outer corner is slow, this pitcher's throwing is unexpectedly powerful. '

Last ball!
Miyuki thought about it for a while, and still compared the number 2 ball. This ball did not shoot well in the last game, or the change balls in the last game did not shoot very well, so he could only use a straight ball.

'The change ball must be used here, the straight ball can't do anything to this hitter! '

Eijun nodded solemnly. The No. 2 ball is a second-seam ball that falls in the way of a jet ball spinning.Although the ball is relatively slow, the trajectory is beautiful. For right-handed hitters, it is the baseball that reaches the hand and flees toward the outer corner.

Like it is now!
Yamaoka swung the bat, but the next moment he noticed that the ball was escaping toward the outer corner, and he adjusted his posture to follow closely.

"Hiss—" The sound of the bat breaking through the air was in my ears, but I couldn't touch the escaping white ball.

"The batter is out!"

"Three outs, switch offense and defense!"

"Yoxi, yoxi!!" the pitcher stood on the mound and yelled. No one expected that at this moment when points were bound to be lost, Eijun cheered up.

"Yoshi—yoshi—yoshi—" Qingdao's cheering booth responded, which shocked Eijun.

"Don't be so surprised, your pitching in this inning is really wonderful and deserves praise!"

It was Miyuki's encouragement again, the pitcher was overwhelmed by the flattery, and jumped to the side in fright, "Why, why even Miyuki-senpai?"

"Just accept it with peace of mind!" A familiar voice came from behind.

"Brother!" Rong Chun finally burst into tears, "I will continue to work hard!"

"Don't stand outside the bench and shout!" Two hands behind him dragged him down.

Kawakami, hidden in the depths of the bench, watched all this with a feeling of being isolated.Now the score is 3:0. If Qingdao cannot score more than 3 points in the ninth inning, then there is no need to carry out the defense in the ninth inning.Then he doesn't need to play.
Looking back at the entire spring meeting, he can only appear in the early stage. In the late stage, the presence of those junior pitchers will be extremely strong.

Has the coach forgotten me?

He's had that thought a lot lately.

--------

"out!"

With Xiaochun's exit, the game that took more than two hours finally came to an end.

"Buzz—" The air defense siren sounded again over the stadium.

Opposite Gao Zhiye was Narimiya Ming. After bowing and saluting, the opposite side really stuck to him.

"Hey, you didn't play in the end either! Did you use Dao Shi as your pitcher's driving range?" Cheng Gongming began to criticize when it was clearly the supervisor's responsibility.

"Yes, yes, because I'm really afraid of Senior Chenggong. If I play and win Senior again, I will be annoyed to death!"

"Huh?" Tsundere Ace, who obviously won the victory but always felt aggrieved, jumped, "Even if you come up, today's result will not change!"

"is it?"

"Humph--"

It is best to combine thousands of words into one sentence, "Just wait for the Kanto Conference!"

The environment where the aces of both sides speak harshly seems to have become a must-have program for the two teams. Compared with it, the communication between the captains seems very peaceful.

"It was really a good game today!"

"Yeah, we have also discovered many shortcomings in ourselves."

"Then wait for the Kanto Conference!"

At the end of the game, there were commendations, photos, and interviews as usual. Fortunately, Gao Zhiye did not play today, and only Fuguya, who pitched six innings, was interviewed.After the commendation is over, he can also follow the big team back to the bus to rest early.

"Huh—" It's finally over, this series, and after a few days of rest, it's time to prepare for the Kanto Conference. In the middle, he also has to prepare materials for the exchange project.

There is also the bad supplement of spoken English. Miyuki probably gave up on it, so by then there will really be no one I know.

'The high school transcript needs to be printed, as well as baseball-related materials, and an application letter in English.' As soon as Shen Qing and the others heard about this project, they immediately wanted to do it with great fanfare, such as hiring a foreign teacher, or contacting them from last year. Those who have been there and so on.

Gao Zhiye didn't stop him. Starting from tonight, he will spend an hour to communicate with foreign teachers online.At the same time, I have to keep up with various studies that have been delayed due to the spring meeting, as well as baseball-related topics.

As soon as I let go of the matter of the spring conference, a bunch of other things rushed to the front.

　I found that I really can't write about the loss of the competition. Maybe it's because I resist writing in my heart?
