Ace of Diamonds Golden Boots Silver Rod

Chapter 616 Substitution

“Double play!!!

Sendo Akira! ! !

The man who stood up at this moment single-handedly ended the attack on Narukong Academy! ! !

Leave the chance of Sayunara to Qingdao High School! ! ! "

When the ball entered the glove, the audience roared as the commentator roared.

If this ball is not blocked, Chengkong is very likely to take the lead for the first time today.

Regardless of whether there are people on first or second base, the so-called scoring circle is the distance within which a single can score.

Because the runner can run early, the runner on second base can return, so second and third base are called scoring circles.

Considering that it was difficult to score in the second half of the game, Qingdao played smoothly.

Xiandao's defense this time can be said to be a savior-level performance.

"It's a shame that Lord Sento was able to stop him!" Owada Akiko said, holding her chest.

"yes!

It is difficult to get a double play with this ball, and it will result in a hit if you are not careful! "

"Can Qingdao seize the opportunity and end the game in one go?"

"It's very subtle!"

When the two reporters were talking, the players from both sides had already returned to the bench.

"I will definitely use the bat for my previous mistake...!!!" Sawamura swung his arms like a seesaw on both sides, finally put the helmet on his head and reached for the bat.

"Uh! Forget it! Baby!" Xiandao whispered.

"Azono! Please!" Kuramochi and others said to Maezono who was already fully dressed.

"Ah! Leave it to me!!" Maezono responded with a smile.

"They will keep taking in corner kicks!" Tojo said to Sawamura at this time.

"What I want!!" Sawamura shouted loudly.

"If you survive this half inning, it will be an overtime!!!"

"A Chang, I'm begging you!"

Hearing the voices of the seniors, Ogawa nodded heavily.

"In the second half of the ninth inning, Seido High School's attack,

Six sticks! First baseman, Maezono-kun! "

“Finally it came to the final offense and defense of the game, and the score between the two sides was still six to six.

The situation will be ruined by one point!

Can Qingdao High School have the last laugh? ! ! ! "

"Deal with him! Ah Chang!!"

"Today you... can do it!!!"

"Ayuan!!"

"please!!

Definitely get on base! ! "

……

“Both sides are ready, the first goal to watch!!

Voted! !

A power play from the third baseman! !

But, solid passing... one out! ! "

"It's obviously an inside corner that Maezono-kun likes, but he can't hit it!" Owada Akiko couldn't help but say again.

"The bat must have been suppressed by the power of the ball!!"

"Will you change the belt at this time?"

"I can't tell!

After all, the situation can be ended by scoring!

It all depends on Coach Kataoka’s judgment and purpose! "

"Seven bats!! Pitcher, Sawamura-kun!"

As soon as Minefushio finished speaking, the announcement in the stadium was already ringing, and there was no intention of replacing him at all.

For a moment, the two of them couldn't figure out Qingdao's purpose.

This is just Coach Kataoka's attempt to ensure stability in order to deal with Narukon Academy's next round of center lines!

After all, the last point may indeed appear at any time, but the risk is still too high if the treasure is completely placed on the lower line.

"Please give me some advice!!!" Sawamura, who walked to the strike zone, shouted respectfully.

The referee was stunned by his voice.

This was the first time he saw a guy saying hello like this.

"Ah!!!" Sawamura, who was standing on the strike zone, roared loudly to give himself more momentum.

“In the previous games, there were also four zero-hit games…

Compared with Fang Gu, his striking ability is much worse..." Mashinichiro glanced at Sawamura and thought to himself.

"Uh-huh!" At this time, Sawamura snorted out through his nostrils...

“The same left-hander in first grade!

And, the round hanging eyes that look very arrogant...

No matter how you look at it, they are all the same as me! ! ! "Ogawa became competitive with Sawamura, who was in the same grade.

"puff!"

"call out!"

"Ding!"

“The first goal is a safe touch!!!”

"Interesting! Going to first base!" Kuramochi, who likes to hit safely, laughed.

"That guy aimed for the inside corner kick!" Tojo remembered his reminder to Sawamura at the beginning.

"Ocho-san!!" Ogawa quickly moved the ball with a flexibility that was completely inconsistent with his own reminder, and made a sound to remind Nagata of his position.

"If you pick it up and pass it again, it will be too late!" Thinking this, Ogawa directly used his glove as a bat to sweep the baseball and reminded loudly.

"I passed it on!!!"

"Snapped!"

"Out!!"

"Na..." Sawamura was also surprised when the ball flew past him.

“Safety strike failed!!

When he thought it was too late, he passed the ball directly with his glove.

Thanks to Ogawa's brilliant performance, two out! ! ! "

Nagata, who received the ball, smiled and extended his two-out finger, while Ogawa made a crouching stance with his lower body, stretched out his glove with his right hand, and pointed at the glove with his left hand...

"how to say?

A flash of inspiration? Is it something called inspiration? "

"Well done!!"

“Isn’t this awesome?!”

……

“Uh-gu-gu!

Uh-huh-huh-huh!

Goo goo goo goo goo! "Sawamura became even more unwilling, staring at Ogawa with his eyes fixed on the first base, clenching his small fists and boasting helplessly.

"You...are out!" the linesman said.

"Kura Kula!" Senior Kijima who stepped forward said helplessly.

“Ze…Village!!

Let’s just say that no matter how awkward you are, you won’t be counted as on base! !

Come back to me quickly! ! ! " Kuramochi shouted from the bench.

Kuramochi's shout caused laughter to burst out from the Qingdao stands.

"At the end of the game... let alone fatigue, my movements became more and more flexible!" Shinichiro Masaki's view of Ogawa also began to change.

“Did having two first-year pitchers irritate him?

That guy Chang actually grew up during the game! "Coach Xiong Qie in the stands also said secretly in surprise.

“Tojo!!

Please help me take revenge! ! ! "In the end, Sawamura was persuaded by Tojo to go back. When he returned to the bench, he cried and cheered loudly for Tojo.

Fang Gu stood next to Sawamura like a bodyguard, staring at him with surprised eyes.

"Be sure to let me take my turn, and I will find a way later!" Senior Aso in the preparation area said confidently.

"Two out! Chang!!"

"Come on! Ah Chang!!!"

"Tojo!!!"

"The attack starts now!!"

"Come on!! Tojo!!!"

"Don't be stressed, just swing the bat with all your strength!!" Coach Kataoka also thought to himself.

"call!……

This guy looks a lot like me too! ! "Ogawa took a breath and looked at Tojo and thought to himself.

"puff!"

“Whoops!” 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　•　　　　　•　　　　　　　　　　 grants\'

"nice shot!"

“First goal inside corner!!

The extremely tricky ball path makes it impossible for the batter to take action! ! ! "

"I won't...I won't let anyone in my grade hit my ball again!!!"

"puff!"

"call out!"

"Huh?" Tojo realized the difference in ball speed and decisively chose to hit the bat with one hand.

"Ping!!"

"Ah!" Ogawa, who was slapped in the face again, quickly turned back and stared at the baseball.

"Between first and second base!"

"Yo Xi!!!"

"Bang!" The hole-in-the-wall second baseman ran very quickly and barely managed to block the ball.

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

"Three outs to change the game!!!"

"what!!!"

"Senior Jade!!!" Ogawa, who was saved by the guards, yelled like a funny elementary school student, raising his arms.

“Naruko Gakuen excels both offensively and defensively!!!

Second baseman Tamaki showed flexibility that belies his huge body! !

Ogawa on the mound did not let Aomichi High School end the game in the last half of the inning! !

At the end of nine rounds, the score was tied at 6-6, and the game entered an overtime! ! ! "

"Oh oh oh! The usual runner is back!!!" People in the stands shouted when they saw Ogawa walking back for the first time without a step that he would never recognize.

The coach of the senior high school student at City University and the pharmacist also asked people to convey the news to the preparing players.

"Don't delay for too long!" Todoroki Raizo couldn't help but complain.

I completely forgot who said the words that made the two teams fight until they were exhausted.

"Entering the playoff should be beneficial to Aomichi who attacks from behind...but," Owada Akiko turned around and said.

"But Xiaochuan's condition is getting better and better!

Although the previous defense had a wonderful performance, but thinking about that mistake...

I don’t know the extent of Xiandaojun’s injury!

So the situation should tend to become a hole!

How will Aomichi suppress Nagata, who hit a home run in the last at-bat? "Mine Fujio said with a sigh.

"Naruko Academy starts with the three sticks in the center!

And we started with one stick,..." Coach Ochiai frowned.

Originally, the fight between the two sides was evenly matched, but...

“Sawamura!

Just try your best to win the leadoff hitter! ! "Just when Coach Ochiai was worried, Coach Kataoka had already given him an answer.

"I must..."

"Next, Kawakami!"

Sawamura immediately made an evil face to express his determination, but Coach Kataoka had no time to play with him and immediately interrupted him.

"Whether there is a runner on the base or not, the four-bat Nagata will be left to you. You have to be mentally prepared for this!!"

"Hi!!"

"This game requires... a substitution!" Sawamura immediately lowered his head.

"The next step is the team's comprehensive battle!" Coach Kataoka put his hand on Sawamura's shoulder and stared at him.

Sawamura seemed to see the determination in Coach Kataoka's eyes, understood, and nodded heavily.

There was no way he wasn't familiar with this rhythm. After all, this was their Qingdao's weapon to win the championship in the summer.

“Don’t think that attacking later is advantageous, you must concentrate on defending this game!!!

It's an overtime now, and one point from the beginning is the key to victory or defeat! ! !

The outcome may be decided in an instant at this time! "

"Hi!!!"

"I see!

Leave the threat of the four sticks to Kawakami, so that the opponent will have no chance to adapt!

However, this is also a great test for Kawakami’s mentality!

Kawakami's mentality problem... This was also the reason why you replaced Sawamura before.

Isn't it? Kataoka-san! "Coach Ochiai still sees it very clearly.

However, seeing it clearly does not mean that Coach Ochiai thinks this method is reliable.

Similarly, Coach Ochiai also knows that this is the best way.

The opponent's line play is too restrained for the current Sawamura.

……

"Miyuki!" Coach Kataoka finally called out to the team leader just as the players were entering the field.

"Use your matchmaking to guide those two!!" Coach Kataoka has handed over this game to Miyuki and completely trusts his judgment.

"In the first half of the tenth inning of the overtime, Narukong Academy's attack,

Three sticks! The stalwart, Kojima-kun! ! "

As soon as the sound of the broadcast came out, the whole place was in a state of excitement.

Supporters from both sides were shouting loudly, for fear of losing to the other side in terms of momentum.

This is the game of baseball! ! !

“Standing on the mat is Kojima, who performed extremely well in hitting today!!

Can he get to third base ahead of Nagata? ! ! ! "

“Although I kept up with his changeup in the last game...

However, if he uses that winning goal again, it will still be a bit difficult to beat!

Aiming at..., he wants to make a good number of straight balls! ! ! ” Kojima stood in the strike zone and prepared to take the first pitch.

"This is not my fight alone!

I have to give my best performance for the team! ! ! "When Sawamura saw Miyuki's code, he was already full of energy.

"puff!"

"..."

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!"

"First... first goal?

This catcher! ! ! "Kojima, who was completely unprepared, had no chance of keeping up with this ball like he did in the previous one.

Miyuki seemed to feel his heart and showed a devilish smile.

"puff!"

"call out!"

"Ping!!"

Just when Kojima didn't adjust his mentality, he couldn't keep up with Sawamura's straight ball.

"LEFT FIELD!!!"

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

"Aso in left field, caught the ball firmly and got one out!!!"

"Yo Xi!!"

"Nice ball! Sawamura!!!"

"Deal with him!!!"

At the same time, Coach Kataoka walked out of the bench and extended his right hand.

Miyuki also stood up directly and asked for a substitution like the referee.

"Damn it!! Even if I didn't hit it well, I was hit so far!!" Sawamura touched the brim of his hat unwillingly and lowered it.

“Notice of changing players from Seido High School!!!

Pitcher Sawamura-kun went to rest, and it was Kawakami-kun who appeared!

Seven sticks! Pitcher, Kawakami-kun! ! "

“At this time, the Aomichi bench made some moves, replacing No. 11 Sawamura, and No. 10 Kawakami came on stage!!

At this time, Qingdou, who has replaced the last pitcher, will also have a showdown? ! ! ! "

"Are they anxious?!" Ogawa complained naively.

To a certain extent, what he said is not completely wrong...

“You shot well! Sawamura!!

This way I can vote more easily! !

I was also very encouraged on the bench! ! ! "Kawakami said to Sawamura.

Sawamura didn't say anything. He grabbed the baseball with both hands and made a strong gesture.

"The next step is up to you! Senior Ah Xian!

I left my thoughts here! ! ! "

Kawakami was stunned by Sawamura's words, and then nodded heavily.

　I really didn't expect that today I would also suffer from the side effects of the vaccine, a headache like a needle stick, and numbness in my right arm.

　　But it took a day to grind it out.
