Ace of Diamonds Golden Boots Silver Rod

Chapter 712 Disadvantage

"Is this speed... falling?" Tojo looked at the fast finger ball entering his glove and exclaimed in disbelief.

He looked up at Hongo Masamune and found that he was extremely dull. He even glanced at Qingdao's bench and didn't take him seriously at all.

Tojo naturally knew who he was looking at, and he also understood that the quick finger-crossing of the first ball was not about changing the ball to value himself.

He is simply showing his strength to Immortal Dao, as if to say, "Now I am qualified to be your opponent!"

"It's really amazing! They are all players from the same year!!" Tojo gritted his teeth and got ready again. He knew that he was just demonstrating to Sendao before, but now the straight ball is coming.

"puff!"

"ah!!"

"piu!"

"Boom!!"

"nice shot!"

Tojo took action almost as soon as he saw the ball, but still didn't touch it.

Tojo could only grit his teeth and decided to take action predicatively.

"Boom!!"

"Great ball! The batter is out!!"

The reality is very skinny. Previously, the inner angle of the ball was high. This ball has a diagonally low outer angle.

In fact, even if he predicted the timing of the opponent's ball and swung in advance, he still couldn't keep up with Hongo's straight ball.

Even Hongo's diagonal shot against Tojo was not because Tojo was so good, but because he simply didn't want to throw the fourth ball! !

“Strikeouts!!!

Qingdao hit the line hard and the two of them were struck out consecutively! ! !

Next is Qingdao's first round of center hitting! ! "

"I'm out!!" Xiandao put on his hat and walked towards the preparation area.

"Three bats! Second baseman, Minato-kun!"

"Um?

Didn't look at me at all! ! "When Koharu stood in the strike zone, he was greatly shocked when he saw that only Sendao was in the eyes of Hongo Masamune.

"Looking at me!

What a scary look!

……This guy! "Xian Dao looked at Hongo's eyes as if he wanted to eat someone, and sighed in his heart.

"snort!!

It's like venting the anger that I didn't express first on the batter!

pride! dissatisfied! A competitive spirit that refuses to admit defeat!

And anger towards me! ! !

All emotions can be vented through pitching.

This kind of talent that is different from ordinary people can really be called a baseball genius! ! !

His talent is bottomless, and for the sake of Masamune's growth, I'd gladly turn into a devil! !

Only in this way can you fight that man! !

Authentic! !

That's a real monster! ! "Coach Nitta thought to himself as he looked at the man venting like an angry beast on the court.

"puff!"

"Ah!" Hongo threw the ball fiercely.

"piu!"

"despair!!"

"The outside world!!"

"The first goal is a low straight ball from the outside corner!!!"

The first ball was hit behind by Koharu hard, but no one thought it was because Koharu kept up with his ball speed.

It’s just that I didn’t swing the bat as hard as I could! !

It is an early shot, leaving room for swinging, making it easy to adjust the position of the bat while swinging.

After all, just touching the ball and causing it to change its trajectory can make the ball go out of bounds. Therefore, it is much easier for a hitter of Koharu's level to just do this than to swing the bat with all his strength.

However, everyone can see that this ball is very reluctant even just to meet the entanglement.

Just one goal made the difference! !

"puff!"

"piu!"

"despair!!!"

"The outside world!"

Second ball, same position, same result.

However, Koharu, who was already being chased, could no longer use such a swing!

Once you are chased, the risk of taking action early is very high.

If you miss a bad ball, you will lose more than you gain!

At this time, Hongo's expression remained indifferent.

"puff!"

"piu!"

"Same pitch?!"

"Boom!!!"

"nice shot!!!

The batter is out! ! ! "

“Strikeouts from all three!!!

Hongo Masamune faced Seido's first three batters and completed a perfect start by striking out three consecutively! ! !

He still didn't allow a run in Koshien, not even a hit! !

This is Jumo Dai Hongo’s authentic pitching! ! ! "

"Is this a lie?!" Kanemaru made an expression of disbelief.

Although the first two goals were taken by Xiaoharu, he still observed two goals after all!

However, the ending was so cruel. All three goals were low outside corners without any change.

But...just can't hit it! ! !

Even the left wrist of Baga could understand the situation at this time, and there was a lot of cold sweat on his face! !

“I didn’t expect that Minato’s bat didn’t even touch!!!

All three balls were thrown in the same position! !

It really is……

If you don't hit that straight ball, there's no way to score! ! ! "Miyuki sighed in his heart while putting on the catcher's armor.

I originally thought that the other party was looking down on others, but it turned out that their level was really just that! ! !

"Miyuki!

It’s just the beginning!

Don't let them affect your mood! ! "At this time, Coach Kataoka said.

"If the other party discovers the flaw, it will cause a headache!

The opponent is such a team! ! "Coach Ochiai also spoke.

"Hi!!!" Miyuki nodded solemnly.

But Miyuki also knew that Hongo had thrown such a shocking pitch under their noses, and it was impossible not to be psychologically affected at all!

In particular, Feng Gu's problem with an unstable start is still there. Although the ball speed was very high in the first game, there were still many crises.

This was almost the same situation as Inami had against the high school teams in the summer, with Hongo putting terrible pressure on them on the mound.

Especially Koharu's bat, he hit three consecutive straight balls at the same position and still got a strikeout! !

This is a huge blow to the team as a whole.

"Okay, okay! The game has just begun, hold on tight!!" At this time, Sawamura clapped his hands and shouted to attract everyone's attention.

"Yo Xi!!" All the players followed the sound and ran onto the court.

“Jiangu!!!

I think you should know, first deal with the first hitter carefully, and then deal with them one by one! ! "Sawamura shouted at Fang Gu's back again.

Jiang Gu nodded silently.

At this time, Sawamura looked like a reliable captain! !

Miyuki became team member A again...

“In the first half of the first inning, after Jumo Daifujimaki’s ace Hongo Masamune showed an overwhelming pitch...

Seido High School also sent out its ace from the Homei War a few days ago, Fukitani onto the pitcher's mound! ! "

"It's been so cold these days!!" Feng Gu, who had finished his pitching practice, blew on the anti-slip powder on his hands and whispered.

"In the second half of the first game, Jumo Daifujimaki High School's attack,

A stick! The backbone, Ajiu-kun! ! "

"After Hongo Masamune's perfect start, what kind of performance will we see from Seido's Fengtani?!"

"Please! Fukitani-kun!" Senior Takako and others outside the venue put their hands on their chests and prayed worriedly.

“First cast to the outside corner and observe the situation!!

Keep it down! ! ! They are an aggressive team, and easy shots will be targeted! ! "Miyuki hit the first ball of the day.

“This pitcher is a little slow to get into the groove, and once he finds his rhythm, it will be difficult!

Take the first shot! ! !

No matter what kind of ball path, I have to take action! ! "The giant pioneer, Ajiu thought in his heart.

Although Ju Mo Da's overall footwork is not as fast as Bai Long's, it is not slow either.

The lead of this team is naturally a guy with great hitting and speed, not to mention a left-handed hitter who is very close to first base.

"Raise your arms!!!"

"puff!"

"piu!"

"Ping!!!"

"Hit!!

But the ball didn't fly very far, and it was a hit in front of left field! ! !

Aku-kun hit Furuya's first ball with a speed of 154 kilometers! ! ! "

"It's true!!" Mishima said in disbelief in the stands.

"Kahahahaha!" Lei Shi just laughed and expressed his excitement.

"That's right!

For a team that sees that kind of pitching over 150 kilometers almost every day.

The reaction to the Speedball is no joke! ! ! "Miyuki could only shake his head helplessly.

Although the ball was a little high, if a different team had no way to adapt to the speed of the ball, it would have been impossible to hit it firmly.

Just like Baoming, who are proud of their line play, even a crisis at the beginning can make it difficult for them to score.

"You should also understand, right?

This team is different! !

If you can't suppress them, there is no way to suppress them! ! "Miyuki took a deep look at Feng Gu.

Fang Gu also understood the meaning of Miyuki telling him to be cautious.

"Second bat! Second baseman, Nishi-kun!!"

"spread!

With no one out on first base, it's the turn of the captain of Jumo Daifujimaki High School, Nishi Hero! !

The batter made a strike gesture, and the runner on first base has already left the base. Is he planning to strike out? "

"puff!"

"piu!"

"Ping!!"

“It’s hit and run!!!

Xi Jun accurately hit the ball to the right! !

The first base runner made it to second base! ! !

Moreover, there are people on the first and second bases, and Qingdao High School is facing a huge crisis as soon as it comes up! ! !

And this time it’s Jumo’s turn to play in the center! ! ! "

"Three bats! Shortstop, Yanaka-kun!!"

"Hey! Is it okay?!"

“There’s nothing we can do about it!!

The old problem of falling valley! !

And if the opponent's ace throws such a pitch, the state of the line is no joke! ! "All kinds of comments began to come from the sidelines.

The audience's concerns are correct, after all, Jiang Gu also has a criminal record.

As the Koshien championship team, even in the regional qualifiers, they received great attention. Naturally, it was impossible to hide such a huge weakness as Fang Gu.

"Boom!"

"Bad ball! Four!!"

“Bases loaded with no one out!!!”

"ah!!!

Kawakawa... Kawakami! ! ! "Minister Ota put his head in his hands and began to look for a savior.

He didn't even think about it. Kawakami wouldn't be able to pitch nine innings if he replaced Yutani so early! !

Not to mention, whether Kawakami-senpai, who is already weak in character, can withstand such great pressure from Hongo is a question!

But there's nothing I can do about it. Being so excited, my IQ is basically zero.

At this time, Miyuki had no choice but to call a timeout! !

"You...are working too hard!!

Have I told you this all along?

Using random force will not make your ball speed go faster, it will only make the ball run wild and out of control! ! ! "Miyuki said as soon as he came up.

Jiang Gu lowered his head, then nodded.

"Could it be that... this guy is not confident in his ball speed because the first ball was knocked out?" Miyuki suddenly thought of a possibility.

“Remember, if you get hit in the beginning, it’s just that your ball is a little too high and the position is a little easier to hit!

But it doesn't mean that your ball speed has no power to them!

As long as it can be suppressed to a certain level, they can't hit it! ! !

do you understand? ! ! "After thinking about it, Miyuki said directly, regardless of whether it was true or not.

There’s no harm in doing it anyway!

However, when Fang Gu heard Miyuki's words, his eyes regained clarity and lost the confusion before.

"no problem!!

Next I will add a change ball to get through this crisis.

But remember, no matter what kind of change ball, if the straight ball is not sharp enough, it will have no effect! !

You have to consciously push it down and don't use too much force! !

As expected, this crisis cannot be easily escaped! !

However, even if we lose points, we can get them back!

We will definitely win in the second round at the earliest! ! ! "After Miyuki finished speaking, he turned around and walked back after seeing Fang Gu nod.

"Now that the big words are out, the next step is to do it!!!" Miyuki walked back, laughing secretly in his heart.

……

"Ping!!"

After Aoyagi was struck out in the fourth bat, Madoka, who had five bats, found the right opportunity and took the first pitch.

"Hit out! Five-bat circle hit to right field!!!

After the third base runner, the second base runner also returns! ! !

Hakushu-kun's return pass hesitated a little, and the runner at first base also bypassed third base! ! !

Back to base! ! !

Third point! ! !

As soon as the giant vine roll came up, it launched a fierce attack! ! ! "

"Yo Xi!!!"

As all the dust came to an end, the whole stadium was excited! !

“Really, has my matchmaking been guessed?!!

I also lost my cool a little bit! ! ! Miyuki looked at Enji Renji who was staying on second base and sighed to himself.

“Three points!!!

For Jumo with a pitcher like Masamune Hongo, this is a huge lead!

And it’s still one out! ! "The commentator also sighed.

It’s not surprising that Yuancheng was able to fight it out in one go.

After all, he was aiming for the ball, and this guy had been teammates with Masamune Hongo for who knows how many years.

Once he guesses the path of the ball, ordinary balls really can't stop him!

“It’s not over yet!!

The game only starts now! !

This is only the first game! ! !

It’s not over yet! It’s not over yet! ! ! "At this time, Sawamura let out a huge roar.

All of a sudden, the people on the court were brought back to reality.

"It's so noisy!!" Kuramochi laughed and cursed.

"However, Sawamura is right. This is only the first game, so there is no need to be anxious." But this is what he thought in his heart.

　I gathered together and typed a few more words for a while, and my head started to react.

　　Go to bed before your head starts to hurt. Good night.
