Ace of Diamonds Golden Boots Silver Rod

Chapter 116 The end of the second round

"Hey! Is it okay? We are all here in the infield, but I feel a little panicked!" Omura in the outfield felt a bit cold between his legs!

The nine-man infield looks dangerous, but is actually the most suitable tactic for Sawamura's ball system and junior high tournament level.

Moreover, Big Tail's third-round high-up line is no joke. The fielding range of the infield is too large, and even ground balls cannot be blocked. However, if the infield is increased to 9 people, such a ball without power will be easily blocked. Stopped.

It can be said that when the opponent did not discover Sawamura's ball system, the nine-man infield only looked like suicide, but in fact it was an unsolvable and rogue tactic.

"Are they looking down on me? Are they looking down on me?" Big Tail's second-bat hitter saw the nine-man infield pointing at him frantically like his teammates for confirmation.

"Calm down! Maybe it's just the opposite. Is it because you take it too seriously? Probably!"

"Na~ni~?"

"Although I don't know why, it's a fact that we didn't get any outfield hits in this game. The nine-man infield was exactly their strategy because they didn't have the confidence to stop our hits, which meant they surrendered when we hit the outfield!

Such a battle!

Because they can't possibly want to hand over victory to us, right? "Takase, who returned to normal, said to his second stick.

"Then let's see how I hit the outfield!"

“So I used to hold a short stick and hit the ball, but now I give up!

The only way to get to the outfield is by fishing! "

"Ok!"

The game starts again!

"Ei-chan! Let's show off with them!"

"Yeah!" Sawamura nodded deeply to Takeda and started to throw the ball.

"call out!"

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!"

"Really! Are you going to shoot the ball in the center at this time? Takase is right, they are making a desperate move!

but……

So do we! "Seeing the opponent's pitch, the batter put away the anger that he had felt when he was being underestimated.

The second ball roared in again!

"Inside corner! But a good shot!"

"Ping!"

"Nani?" When I actually hit it with the fishing method, I felt a strong feeling that it didn't feel right!

The ball flew high.

"Ei-chan! I'm coming!!! I'm coming!!!" Seeing that the ball was between the pitcher and the catcher, Takeda immediately reminded nervously that he really didn't dare to let his ace catch the ball! ! !

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

"Damn it! How does that feel?" The batter slammed the bat on the ground, and a strong feeling of unwillingness emerged!

"Don't worry!" the three-stick beater comforted.

The second batter wanted to remind his teammates, but he didn't know what to say at all. He could only sigh heavily, patted his teammates on the shoulders and returned to the bench!

"The big tail player didn't hit the ball well at all. He wanted to hit the outfield. Are he too anxious? But the nine-man infield really can't hit the ball into the infield normally!"

The commentator just thought that the batter was anxious. The strange tactic of a nine-man infield also put a lot of pressure on the opponent's psychology.

Whether it's anger or pressure to hit the outfield, it will have a great impact on the duel!

"One out!!!" Takeda used this to encourage morale!

All of a sudden, all the teammates in the field were responding!

The showdown will continue!

"Three bats, left fielder, Obayashi-san!"

"Three bats, left fielder, Obayashi-san!"

"It's really interesting! The nine-man infield is so messy! However, apart from trying its best to hit the outfield, there is really no other flaw!

What seems like chaos is actually really tricky. Chicheng Middle School is such an interesting team!

By the way, Chicheng is a team composed entirely of second-year players, right?

And the pitcher is also a pitcher who wins or loses in the strike zone.

So, let’s show off! Seniors! "

"play!"

Seeing that Dalin was ready, the referee signaled for kickoff!

"I don't know how the opponent will attack, but I can only do it, right?" Sawamura, who was on the pitcher's mound, had the same thoughts.

"Snapped!"

"Good shot!" Seeing the ball enter the glove, the referee raised his right hand to signal.

"The game has reached this level, but the power of the ball has not diminished. The ball is very fast. But after all, it is not to the point where it is impossible to hit!"

Second goal! ! !

"Ping!"

"The outside world!"

"Isn't the timing right? It feels right!

No, I'm being chased!

Will bad pitches be thrown to disrupt the game? "Because he wanted to hit the outfield, Dalin didn't even see the state of contact between the ball and the bat.

"Huh?" Just when Dalin was thinking wildly, Chicheng's surrender didn't give him any time to think.

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!"

"Swing! Strike out! That's two outs and only one out left!"

"Yo Xi!!!" Everyone in Chicheng was already shouting loudly, and the voices of two outs were heard one after another.

"Eijun! As the ace, lead the team to win back the victory!" Xiandao said secretly while looking at the field.

Then Sendao stood up and shouted loudly that the game had just started, don't be careless!

"Four bats! First baseman! Ogiyama-kun!"

"Four bats! First baseman! Ogiyama-kun!"

"Please! Ogiyama, give me a hit! Don't let the game end like this!"

"Only 5 balls, I got two outs, what should I do!? If I try to catch the ball, I will miss it! But..." Ogiyama thought of this and looked at the nine people in the infield, sighing. Tone!

The fact is that even if you don't seize the right timing in your usual playing style, because the movement trajectory of the bat coincides with that of the ball, the miss rate of this kind of straight ball is very low.

But when fishing, there are two lines with only one intersection, so although the ball can be hit high and far, the miss rate is also very high.

Facing a nine-man outfield is no different from not playing well. You can imagine how annoying this nine-man infield's all-or-nothing style of play is when there is no way to hit a long hit.

"There's another person!

Only one person can win! "Sawamura looked at the batter and thought to himself!

"bring it on!"

"Bitter ~ ew!"

"Ok?"

"Snapped!"

"Bad ball!"

"The first goal was a corner kick, but unfortunately it missed a little!" The commentator was already fully engaged. "What's the matter, Ei-chan?" Takeda was a little anxious. Only he knew that what he wanted was a good shot, and it didn't matter even if it was a little easier to hit.

"One more goal!"

"Snapped!"

"Bad ball!"

Off again!

"What should I do?" At this time, Zhutian was also a little panicked.

"Ha!" Xiandao chuckled when he saw this, and then stood up.

"Huh?" People in the field also noticed this.

"There is movement on Chicheng's bench. Chicheng Middle School carries the number 10. This team's de facto coach is guiding the opponents. Is there any change in formation at this time?

No, the infield didn't move as if to indicate the previous two bad balls. But what exactly are these instructions? "The passionate voice of the commentator echoed in the field, and the game was undoubtedly at the last moment.

"Hahaha! Right in the middle! Immortal way! You guy! Are you really not afraid of losing?" Sawamura couldn't stop smiling when he saw the code.

"Speaking of which! The incredible thing is that no matter what kind of instructions you give, no matter how random the instructions are, we all feel that there is no problem!

Aren't we the ones who can prove that your random tactics are effective? ! ! !

Immortal way! ! ! "

"call out!"

"In the center?"

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!"

"Wasted!!! Ogiyama swung the four-ball ball to the center straight ball! That's the first ball and two bad balls! The second ball... was thrown!"

"call out!"

"Ping!"

“This ball is out of bounds behind the catcher! But it could be caught!!!

Can the catcher catch it? …”

"Land!" Ogiyama had already started shouting and praying to land quickly. At this time, everything was over when he was picked up and killed.

"It landed! The catcher didn't catch it, so the ball was out of bounds! But Otsuo Middle School is at the end of the road, there is still a good ball, but the bad ball is not full, so if it is impossible to distinguish the situation, even the bad ball must be shot, and finally Whether it's an infield ground ball, a fly ball, or a strikeout, as long as it's not a hit, it's the end of the game!" The on-site commentator used high and low pitches to arouse the emotions of the audience, completely unaware of how much pressure this would put on the batters. The defensive line had already With a nine-man infield, even if there is a mistake in passing, there will be a replacement to pass the ball. As long as it is not a big mistake, it is safe.

So normally it is a word that puts pressure on both sides at the same time. In fact, the defender did not feel much pressure from this word.

"No need for bad shots! Don't give them a chance to breathe and decide the outcome in one go!" Xiandao said in his heart!

"Straight ball in the center! ×10!!!" At the moment Sawamura raised his arms, all 10 people in Chicheng Junior High School thought in their hearts at the same time.

"This is the end! Inside corner or outside corner? A slightly deflected bad ball is also very possible. At this time, we can no longer leave our fate to the referee!...Na..."

"Ping!"

"...Ni? In the center? The last ball?" Ogiyama's face was full of disbelief, and he had forgotten about running bases, because the result was already determined.

The final ball did not fly into the sky but became a ground ball. Ohno quickly got the ball and passed it quickly.

The idiot at first base showed a happy smile the moment before he caught the ball!

"Snapped!"

"Out! The game is over!" The referee directly announced the result of the game!

"Ah!!!" Sawamura shouted in despair on the pitcher's mound!

In addition to Sendou Wakana, Chicheng, including Kosano, have already rushed towards the figure in the field!

The nine people in the field hugged each other, Wakana looked on with a smile on his face, Sendao was still sitting there but couldn't hide the raised corners of his mouth.

"The two sides fought to the death for an hour, and finally won the right to challenge the king of Tokugawa Junior High School in the second round (a reminder for book friends who are jumping to read, Tokugawa got a bye in one round! It is impossible for a small place to get two byes like those seeds from Qingdao) It’s Chicheng Middle School!!!

Chicheng, who suffered a huge defeat last fall, appears as a dark horse this year. Let's look forward to tomorrow's game! ! ! "

At this time, everyone in Chicheng didn't hear the commentary broadcast and celebrated to their heart's content. What everyone didn't know was that from a corner of the stadium, a beautiful figure appeared silently watching Xiandao on the bench!

Furuhashi Fumino arrived without saying hello in advance, but after the game, she took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Sendō, asking him to pick her up!

Since everyone is here, there is no way they won’t show up!

"Line up!"

Players from both sides, including the bench, went out to line up. Of course Sendao also had to go out, as he was nominally a substitute.

"salute!"

"Thanks for the advice!"

"Seniors! We lost today! Let's play together again when we have time!" After all, most of Dawei's players are first-year players, so they are very open-minded. Although they were a little sad, they quickly adjusted.

"Ah! Let's fight again!" Sawamura responded cheerfully.

"Next time we will win!"

"We won't admit defeat either!"

With Sawamura's personality, he easily got along with this group of juniors.

After the two sides saluted, Xiandao would go to the bench and start packing his things.

In fact, this game looked dangerous. In fact, when Sendao discovered that the opponent knew nothing about Sawamura's game, the outcome was already determined.

The nine-man infield was just a flash of inspiration, but pressing forward in the inner and outer field was something Chicheng often did, but today he played even better.

……

"Furuhashi-san! You're watching the game!" For some reason, Sawamura respects Fumino in particular.

"Yeah! What a beautiful pitch! Sawamura!"

"Haha! Is that so? Thank you!" Sawamura scratched his head in embarrassment and thanked him with honorifics.

"We are obviously students of the same grade, why do we need to use honorifics? Why is Eijun so obedient in front of Fumino?" Sendao complained in his heart as he watched this scene.

It can only be said that liberal arts geniuses are easy to respect. (This is the feeling of immortality!)

Moreover, Sawamura likes romance novels, and Furuhashi is the kind who can make people cry just about anything he writes. Therefore, Sawamura respects Furuhashi very much, but Sendao doesn't know why.

"Come on! I'll come back to watch your game tomorrow!" As he said this, Fumino looked at Xiandao with some resentment. Although Xiandao felt it, he had no idea what he had done.

then,

"It hurts!" Xiandao's waist suffered again. (It’s not that Japanese girls also like to pinch people. It’s Fumino’s personal behavior.)

"What did I do?" Since you can't guess, just ask directly.

However, Fumino simply ignored him and walked to Wakana's side and chatted with her.

"Damn it! Xiao Sano! We won so hard today, please treat us to a barbecue!" After Sendao vented in a low voice, he immediately pointed the gun at Teacher Sano, intending to turn his grief and anger into appetite.

"Okay, I'm treating you. Furuhashi-kun (girls are also called "jun" if they are strangers), come too!"

Teacher Sano was unusually generous, and he could see how hard this competition was.

Likewise, he is also aware of tomorrow's game. Although he doesn't know the result without playing it, everyone including today's commentator knows that tomorrow will be very unlucky.

After all, there is a very obvious gap between the two teams. This gap is not easy to make up. Chicheng is not the kind of team with a mythical beast sitting in charge. (There are mythical beasts, no one knows about them.)

Therefore, everyone knows that tomorrow's game will be very fierce, but it is basically difficult to have a big upset in the outcome.
