King's Green Road

Chapter 162 Part162

[The game is about to start in the first half of the fifth inning, and Qingdao High School has changed players! 】

"Oh?! Substitution!"

"Who should I replace?"

"Yeah yeah!"

"They always have the upper hand."

"Yeah, he was actually replaced!"

This move made the audience in the stands very puzzled as to what it meant.

Full of regret.

Before they figured it out, the broadcast on the radio above the Koshien Stadium was still going on.

[Pitcher Yugu goes off the field, replaced by No. 1 Tanba Koichiro, eighth bat, pitcher Tanba! 】

"Didn't that first grade vote very well?"

"It may be for stability!"

"Well, the aces are more stable than the first-year ones."

"That's true, but it's a pity that I can't watch the gorgeous pitching of this freshman."

"That's right!"

"The trump card should be very powerful, after all, the first graders seem to be so strong."

Hengxue rest area.

"It's changed..."

"Unexpectedly, Supervisor Kataoka is quite cautious."

Director Kaga was thoughtful, probably because the freshman pitcher's physical strength is not good enough.

Looking at his previous pitches, I knew that his ball control was not very good, and his physical strength didn't look very good. If his physical strength is greatly problematic, his ball control will be even worse.

This is also considered a timely stop loss.

"Danbo's ball, you also know, I don't believe his weakness can be overcome this summer, so let me play it!"

Hengxue people: "Yes!!"

A full five points behind, this is a point difference that is difficult for them to face, so they must catch up and win each other.

Otherwise, in the summer of their last year, they really participated in a loneliness in Jiashiyuan this time.

At this moment, everyone in Seido, especially Tamba and Miyuki, were warming up for pitching on the field.

"One more ball, Tanba-senpai!"

"call out!"

"Snapped!"

Miyuki who received the ball nodded his head. Although the angle of the ball is not enough, and the straight ball is not very strong, it has really improved a lot compared to the regional competition.

Already with the sharp edge that belongs to the third grade, very good.

Then he signaled Danbo to throw a few more balls to change the ball and adjust his state.

It's time.

[Sixth shot, shortstop Oyama! 】

"kick off!"

……

"call out!"

"Chong!"

The hit baseball flew high into the sky, a clear infield fly.

"Shortstop!!!"

"Leave it to me, don't worry!"

"Da da--"

There was a sound of footsteps, and a blue and white figure jumped out.

"Snapped!"

Then the straightened ball cover firmly caught the falling baseball.

"Out!"

"Kuramo!"

"Good job Danba!"

"Two outs!!"

"one left!!"

Tamba struck out Oyama, who was in sixth, and then tangled with Ginjo, who was seventh, for four balls before hitting an infield goofy.

So far smoothly got two outs.

[Qingdao's trump card firmly held the advantage on his side as soon as he came on the stage, and he got two outs very smoothly!

The next one to play is Bai Yu, the eighth catcher! ! ! 】

"Hengxue!"

"Come on!"

"White Feather!!!"

"Hit it!"

In the support of his own family, Bai Yu stepped onto the strike area with a solemn expression.

Looking back at the ace Yi Neng who is squatting in the hitting zone, he must get a hit. Yi Neng was forced so hard by Qingdao's batting line. If he can't even get a hit, it's really useless up.

He looked at pitcher Danbo on the mound with a particularly firm gaze.

"kick off!"

First ball, a curveball from the inside corner.

Miyuki quickly made the first signal with a slight movement of his fingers.

"call out!"

"Shh!"

"Snapped!"

"1 strike!"

Facing the Tanba curveball, Bai Yu couldn't grasp the timing of the hit and missed it.

Bai Yu's body also staggered because of the too much force just now, and then helped his striking helmet, and re-arranged the striking posture.

The second ball, a straight ball with a low outside corner.

"call out!"

"Chong!"

"Football!!"

The baseball failed to go in and was hit out of bounds at third base.

"call out!"

"Chong!"

"Fouls!"

"..."

"Chong!"

"Fouls!"

Afterwards, Bai Yu gritted his teeth and hit the ball out of bounds even if he couldn't hit the ball well.

Miyuki glanced at Shiraha, this guy actually entangled him, but it was because Tanba-senpai's straight ball was too easy to hit.

Even a person like Bai Yu who lacks strength can still pester him like this after he gets used to it.

But that's all there is to it.

The next ball is a high curve ball from the inside corner, control the ball well, and throw it trickily.

Danba nodded in agreement.

He raised his legs and took a step, swung his right arm, and when he saw a white light burst from his hand, he suddenly flashed.

"call out!"

coming! !Inner corner!

Bai Yu saw the angle, turned his waist suddenly, and drove his arms to swing out the bat.

"Shh!"

"Snapped!"

The baseball dodged the swinging baseball, fell rapidly, and got into Miyuki's glove.

"3 strike!"

"strike out!"

"Three outs, exchange of offense and defense——!"

Damn it——

It still failed.

Bai Yu was very unwilling to take the bat and left the strike zone.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you defend each round well, the opportunity to counterattack will come."

Yi Neng looked at his partner Bai Yu's expression, smiled and comforted him softly.

Yineng...

Bai Yu looked at Yi Neng who was still smiling, and he was stunned. It was a failure that he actually needed comfort from a person who was hit harder than himself by Yi Neng.

"Well, from now on, you and I will guard every round, let's work hard together!"

"I'll leave it to you, Yi Neng, I believe you'll be fine."

Director Kaga looked at Yi Neng, trust him, and handed over the next game to Yi Neng to vote.

"Yes!"

Yi Neng readily agreed.

"You also have to be more careful to guard the trump card's front, back, left, and right sides, and give the trump card the greatest support, understand?!"

Director Kaga nodded in satisfaction. Although he lost points, there was nothing wrong with Yi Neng's performance, it's just that Qingdao's line play was too strong.

Hengxue people: "Yes!!"

……

The ensuing game seemed to have entered a stage of stalemate.

In the second half, Yi Neng performed very well.

First, four bad walks sent Yuuki to base, but then Masuko on the fifth, Miyuki on the sixth and Sakai on the seventh all failed.

It was very neat and tidy.

Then in the sixth and seventh innings, the ace pitchers of both sides showed their stable pitching.

Although someone hit the base, neither side could turn it into a score.

It wasn't until the eighth round that Henggaku finally broke through Seidou's defensive line again.

Relying on a coherent and stable play, he took another two points from Qingdao's ace and narrowed the point difference to three points.

With a three-point difference, ushered in the final matchup, it is unknown whether Qingdao will maintain this advantage to win the game, or Hengxue will turn defeat into victory.

[Hengxue and Qingdao are currently separated by three points, and the two teams have maintained this point difference to usher in the final ninth game! ! ! 】

"Qingdao must win!"

"Qingdao!!"

"Miyuki!"

"Danba!!!"

"Hengxue!"

"Come on Hengxue!!!"

"Come on!! Hengxue!"

"Yineng!!"

"White Feather!"

At this moment, the audience couldn't help cheering their team excitedly at this moment.

Who will go further is still unknown.

　Thank you for the peach-flavored hard candy, thank you for your support (=^▽^=)
