Ace of Diamonds Golden Boots Silver Rod

Chapter 559 Review and Advancement to the Quarterfinals

A few seconds ago,

"Inside corner kick... Carter ball!"

"Meigong!!"

"Ukumori!!"

"Sawamura!!!" Minister Ota cheered for Sawamura desperately in Ukumori's home field, although his voice was immediately drowned out!

This gentle man also knows how important this goal is to Sawamura.

"Menomiya defeat him!!"

"Mei-chan!!"

"Blow that pitcher!!"

"Mei-chan!!"

"If this ball is not pitched well and is hit a home run, Ukumori... the atmosphere in the field will become even more terrifying, and the blow to Aomichi will be extremely heavy.

Some people may feel that the support of the audience is a pressure, but others may feel that it is a motivation.

There is no doubt that Umenomiya is someone who can use support as motivation! !

It takes a lot of courage to decide the outcome with an inside corner kick against such a hitter!

The victory or defeat of the game, the pitcher's confidence, self-esteem, the courage to put everything on this ball, and to overcome all kinds of psychological pressure!

Mr. Sawamura has always been known for his courage. What will be the result this time? "When Miyuki quietly moved his body to the inside corner, Minefujio looked at Sawamura on the pitcher's mound and Umemiya in the strike zone, and thought to himself.

“He’s totally picked on by the hitters!

If he misses the shot, it may affect his baseball life. Even if he fails to recover, it is not impossible!

Let me see the limit of your courage! "Coach Ochiai remembered Sendō's regard for Sawamura, and he still had some expectations for his evaluation.

This can be regarded as an ideological bias.

"Sawamura! If it were you, you would be able to do it even in this atmosphere...

I don't think I'm the only one who thinks so. I think...even the supervisors let you get on the mound because they believe in you.

Even if the shot goes wrong, it's just a full shot, so it's better to say it's a good chance for a lob!

And even if we were beaten out, we would still be in the lead, not to mention that we would still be able to attack in the second half of the game!

Defeat him here!

Your target is the ace... isn't it?

Throw your most satisfying ball here! "Miyuki looked at Sawamura with firm eyes and a smile.

Miyuki's smile also successfully infected Sawamura's emotions.

“Go! Eijun!

This situation is also your home court, show your courage!

Today’s HERO must be you!

This game will take you a big step closer to becoming an ace! ! "Xian Dao's eyes were all focused on Sawamura.

"Sawamura! The number of balls is favorable!"

"Let him call over!"

"Just throw it in!"

……

"The other party is under a lot of pressure!"

"You have always believed in me as a manager...

Now it's my turn to believe you! "Nan Peng also gave Mei Gong his final blessing in his heart.

Watermelon Head made sarcastic remarks as always, but this time his target was Sawamura. Obviously he had found the wrong person.

"Why do you perform better than usual every time you face a tense situation?" Sawamura, who raised his arms high, remembered what he had asked Xiandao.

“The greater the pressure, the more critical the game is. When overcoming pressure, it means that the results obtained are also the best, right?

And... no matter how possible, I hope to face such a situation every time! "

"why?"

“As long as I’m on the court, I’ll do my best and bet everything on that victory!

After fighting with all my strength, whether I win or lose, I will have no regrets and no regrets.

Believe in yourself! ! "

"trust yourself!

Try your best, be in the best condition, and put everything on this showdown!

I don’t think I would forgive myself if I lost because of my mistakes!

so……"

"puff!"

"I'm going to bet everything on this ball!!!"

"call out!"

……

"Yo Xi!!!"

When Kuramochi caught a ground ball near second base, moved to second base to cover, and then passed to first base for a double play, Sawamura clenched his hands and let out a roar that penetrated his soul.

He felt what Xian Dao said...the best fruit! ! !

Ukumori's side became silent for a moment, and everyone looked in disbelief.

Sawamura's goal shattered the momentum they had worked so hard to build!

Although there was still one person left, even the most enthusiastic spectators knew that the game was over after hearing Sawamura's soul-deep roar.

"Yo Xi!!"

"Nice pitch! Sawamura!!"

"Sawamura!!!" Minister Ota instantly made a banzai action.

Even Coach Kataoka clenched his fists at this moment. This goal not only sealed the victory, but also brought about earth-shaking growth for Sawamura.

All the momentum Ukumori had accumulated became Sawamura's.

Umenomiya was lying alone on the first base bag, gritting his teeth and trying not to give in, but his eyes still showed disbelief, the disbelief of being defeated.

The last batter faced Sawamura who performed at a superb level and was like a god.

The outside corner was ridiculously accurate. The reason why I didn't mention the inside corner was that Inubushi, who had several hits today, hit a non-threatening grounder on the second pitch and was out.

"competition is over!!"

When the game ended, Umemiya's eyes on the bench had lost their luster. Inubushi leaned on the ground with his arms and cried bitterly at first base.

Nan Peng lowered his head and endured the painful cry of defeat.

They defeated Inami, and their shocking counterattack in the eighth game today... everything allowed them to see that they were close to their dreams... when that bastard named Koshien was so successful on the stage.

The cruel reality beat them to pieces. The higher their momentum before, the worse they fell now.

"Nice pitch! Sawamura!!"

"It's really amazing! Sawamura!!"

"The last fight was amazing!!!"

"Finally, a perfect relay for three people!!"

At this moment, everyone was praising Sawamura. Just like Xiandao said, the only hero today is Sawamura.

Whether it's Sendō with two home runs or Miyuki with a high batting average with one home run, they are just green leaves for him.

"Yoxi! Yoxi yoxi!

well! ! Yoxi yoxi! "

"If you like, you can shout whatever you want!!" Xiaochun shouted with a smile.

"Yo Xi!"

Even Kuramochi no longer wanted to interrupt Sawamura Masaki and was celebrating properly. “Well done!!”

Everyone has endless tolerance for Sawamura, at least for now...

"Pah! Pah! Pah, pah, pah...!"

The entire audience who had supported Ukumori on the sidelines also gave Aomichi a heartfelt applause!

"Huh! I finally won!" Miyuki stood up and took a deep breath, and the tense moment finally passed.

Starting from the collapse in the eighth game, Miyuki was under the greatest pressure.

"But, Sawamura's shot... was undoubtedly the best shot today!" After thinking about it, Miyuki was also deeply impressed by the Carter shot against Umenomiya.

Whether it was Sawamura's fighting spirit, will, or the ball itself... Even from Miyuki's perspective, it was an impeccable ball.

"Good judgment! Thank you for your hard work!!!" Sendao looked at Sawamura who was celebrating on the court and did not disturb him. Instead, he ran to Miyuki and took the initiative to talk to him.

"Although it's because I have no more moves!

If it were you, I would probably not hesitate to let Sawamura cast in the inside corner! "

“How many years do you think he and I have known each other?

That guy is not someone who would run away from a situation like this! Xiandao said proudly.

"You are so happy!

He obviously has a dull expression when he hits a home run! "Miyuki couldn't help but joked. In fact, he was a little envious of Sawamura in his heart.

"certainly!

You definitely can’t understand the joy of watching your pet grow! Xiandao said jokingly in a good mood.

"pet……!

Sure enough, you have a very bad character! "Miyuki secretly thought in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. With such a close distance, he would definitely be beaten to pieces and then beaten severely.

Although Miyuki is not afraid of violence, Sendao, a guy who is more sinister than himself, still has many ways to deal with himself.

That's right, this guy is a coward...

"The head-to-head confrontation with Umemiya, the game was decided right there!" Akiko Owada was having her last thoughts on the game.

“Sports means results are everything, which means the choice of surrendering and arresting is the right one!

Just like when he faced Daocheng Industrial in the summer, Sawamura used his courage to bring victory to Qingdao!

This can only praise the pitcher's tenacity, and the boldness of the catcher who chooses to believe in the pitcher! ! "Mine Fujio's eyes always stayed on Sawamura.

In the summer, he compared Sawamura to Narimiya, who stood in front of Aido last year, and paid attention to it.

Today, his interest in this pitcher became even more intense.

No matter what kind of crisis, a pitcher who can maintain his fighting spirit is the most valuable thing.

In addition, the pitcher is the core of the defense, so Sawamura is almost like the patron saint of the team.

"The final result was the same as expected. It's so boring!" Watermelon Head slowly stood up.

"Wait! Notorious Sect!

I will kill you! ! "Then he left the scene arrogantly.

Although he said this, there was endless seriousness between his eyebrows.

For them, this Qingdao can be regarded as both offensive and defensive.

In one game in particular, there were three home runs, although only a few people hit them...

Tadano Tree, who was sitting in the audience, kept his eyes on Miyuki who was talking to Sendō until the two of them walked back to the bench together.

In the final match against Mei Gong, he felt a very strong impact and understood what he lacked.

And I decided in my heart that I would watch all the matches of Qingdao in autumn, hoping to learn something from Miyuki.

Thereby becoming stronger and becoming a catcher who can really help Chenggong.

After all, the position of catcher, even if it is not a strong shoulder catcher.

As long as your brain is flexible enough and you are good at sorting out the pitcher's psychology, you can still do well. Even if your physical ability is average, entering the major leagues is not a dream.

……

“Always try your best next time!!”

“I must go to Koshien this time too!!!”

"Thank you!!"

After leaving the stadium, Sawamura responded loudly to the voices of Seido's die-hard supporters. He was in a particularly good mood today.

On other courts, Xianquan High School advanced successfully.

Tianjiu, the prodigal son who turned back, this free-spirited guy, had a total of fifteen strikeouts today and zero shutouts.

If it weren't for Arisawamura's existence, Sendao would probably be even more free and unrestrained than him...

Facing Mingchuan, Yakushi's only runs came from two home runs from Tonraichi, and they barely managed to win 2-0 on five hits.

Yang Fun also ended his high school baseball career in this best matchup.

The reason why Yang Sun-shin was unable to face the top hitters of the elite level was because he lacked a decisive winning goal.

When it comes to deciding the outcome against a strong hitter, no matter how tricky he is, he doesn't have absolute ball speed or characteristics like Sawamura.

It would be too dangerous to rely on straight balls to decide the outcome. After all, not even the monkey from Honglei City would be wary of any changing balls.

These two home runs are proof...

It's like a patron saint-level pitcher in the major leagues with an average velocity of 140 plus. In addition to a change-up ball like a slider, he also has two winning pitches, and both winning pitches are change-ups.

One is a four-seam change-up ball, and the other is a two-seam change-up ball. Together with Yang Sun-shin's ability to control the ball wherever he throws, he ranks among the top two pitchers in the major leagues. (I forgot whether it was first or second...)

However, Yang Sunchen himself did not have any regrets and thoroughly enjoyed his final high school baseball game.

His baseball life has just begun. If he only plays professional baseball after graduating from college, he will still be very popular.

You have this kind of ball control in high school, and the rest is just to hone your winning skills.

His strength has been recognized by everyone.

After the game, Umenomiya still couldn't forget the look in Sawamura's eyes, and because of this they were even more eager to win.

Summer will also be their last chance.

If you can't pass the Didong level, everything will be in vain.

A revolution in the team is coming, although the process will be very painful.

Their team manager is no ordinary devil when it comes to training.

In the summer in East Tokyo, not only Teito and Ukumori will be there, but there will also be several strong teams.

It is easier to enter Koshien in East Tokyo than in West Tokyo.

After all, four famous teams are about to appear in Western Tokyo. These four teams are also among the top eight and top four teams in Koshien.

Coupled with a large group of ordinary wealthy families, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a hell within hell.

Of course, for Seido, summer matters will be put aside in summer. What they need to think about is to dominate the entire Tokyo area this autumn and enter Koshien next spring.

One of the biggest favorites for the championship, Daocheng Industrial was eliminated in the first game.

In the semi-finals, which is a match between four and two, it is very likely that the pharmacist and the city's top three will fall in love and kill each other.

Qingdao's follow-up schedule has gradually improved. Although the subsequent opponents will not be easy to deal with, it is still much better than continuous battles with teams like Shida San and Yaoshi.

After those two teams fight each other, they will face Qingdao or defeat Qingdao's powerful enemy in the finals!

　The showdown with Mei Gong is presented in flashback because I don’t want to make you feel uncomfortable, so please understand!

　　I came back from the gift today so exhausted that I went to bed as soon as I got home and it was already dark. I still feel tired now...

　　I have a little time today so I took a look at my previous records.

　　Thanks to 21171123750512355, JK Jie, and PS Jie for their previous rewards. Please wait until I have time to sort out the records!

　　Finally, please vote... Good night everyone!
