The baseball flying from the pitcher's mound just missed the metal bat that was swept away by the batter, and fell into the open pocket of the catcher Kazuya Miyuki.
“nice pitch.“
Miyuki also stood up and took out the baseball from his holster and passed it back to Senior Yashigami. After squatting down, he signaled the previous signal to the senior and then placed the holster in the previous position.
Iori Yagami curled his lips. Once on the field, the junior Miyuki Kazuya is as strong as Takigawa.
Of course, he was not dissatisfied with this, but he was a little confused as to why Qingdao could always recruit such a catcher?
At the same time, Yagami thought about it at night, but did not stop his body movements. Following the signal given to him by the catcher, he swung his arm and threw the baseball in his palm.
"call out!"
"Whoa!"
"Bang!"
“strike.“
Yamaguchi Shotsugi once again missed the opportunity to swing the bat due to Yagami's ball speed that was fast and slow at night, and his swing failed again.
When the catcher placed the ball cover in the previous position for the third time, Yagami suddenly felt that Osaka Kiryu's one-hitter was a little pitiful. As he said before, his distribution was indeed very tricky.
"call out!"
"Whoa!"
The baseball spun at an extremely fast speed and flew away from the pitcher's mound toward home plate in front, rushing towards the catcher squatting behind home plate at a speed of 150km/k. Before Yamaguchi Shotsugi's metal bat swung over,
He took a quick step forward and fell into Miko Kazuya's open ball sleeve.
"Bang!"
Just by listening to the sound, you can tell how powerful the ball is and how powerful its tail is.
“strike out.“
With the cooperation of Kazuya Miyuki, Yagami easily defeated Kiryu Osaka and struck out Shotsugi Yamaguchi.
When Osaka Kiryu's second batsman Kosugi Taro left the waiting area and came on the field, he whispered to his junior student Yamaguchi Shotsugi who was leaving the game: "How was it?"
"Although the ball control is good, the most important thing is the speed of the ball that is difficult to overcome." Yamaguchi Shoukidou whispered, raising his hand to take off the ball cap.
Kosugi Taro nodded upon hearing this and walked to the batting area with his bat in hand.
If the ball speed is fast, swing the bat faster; if the ball speed is slow, swing the bat slower!
With this idea in mind, when Osaka Kiryu second bat Taro Kosugi saw the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound, he swung his arm vigorously to sweep the metal bat away. Unfortunately, the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound arrived too late.
It wasn't until Kosugi Taro's bat swept across the home plate area that it flew past the top of the home plate and ran into Miyuki Kazuya's open ball cover.
"Change ball?!"
Kosugi Taro was surprised by this. This pitcher relied only on fast straight balls and change of ball speed, coupled with a suitable catcher, which was enough to deal with most teams that were not very strong!
Yagami Yagami once again, with the cooperation of Kazuya Miyuki, struck out the second hitter Taro Kosugi, and then allowed Osaka Kiryu to hit a fly ball in the center field, and then was caught out, winning three runs in the first half of the first inning.
Number of outs.
"Isn't the one they sent out an ace?" Yuuki Tanaka said unhappily as he looked at the number "11" on the back of Osaka Kiryu's pitcher who was standing on the mound.
"Then use our blows to force out their trump card." Dong Qingguo, who did not have to play today, shouted loudly to the others: "You have to fight hard, do you hear me?"
"I heard it, captain." Naoya Kuraza, who came in as a hitter, finished speaking and walked onto the field carrying his bat.
Pitcher Hiromi Hiromi of Kiryu Osaka stood on the mound. He glanced at the batter on the batter's box, confirmed the signal with catcher Masahiro Wakamatsu, waved his arm, and threw out the first pitch.
"call out!"
"Whoa!"
"Ping!"
"Out of bounds!"
After Hiromi Tate's first pitch was hit by Naoya Kuraza, it flew backwards towards the first base sideline because of a poor hit.
After swinging the bat, Naoya Kuraza stood up again and stared intently at Hiromi Tate on the pitcher's mound.
"call out!"
"Whoa!"
"Bang"
“strike.“
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
"call out!"
"Whoa!"
"Ping!"
"Out of bounds!"
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
After Hiromi Tate pitched five pitches in a row, the count came to two strikes and two strikes. Naoya Kuraza gently swung the bat again, stood in the batter's box and stared closely at the pitcher on the mound.
Feeling the pressure, Osaka Kiryu's pitcher cracked a smile, which looked scary. Naoya Kuraza in the batting box couldn't help but sigh, why don't any of these pitchers look normal?
"Zangzao, choose your ball well!"
"Keep your sights on target and then shoot out!"
"Come on, get a hit!"
The players on the Qingdao side began to cheer for the first-year freshman.
Amid the shouts of the crowd, Naoya Kuraza once again guessed Osaka Kiryu's catcher's throw and hit the baseball thrown by Hiromi Tate.
"Soldiers!"
After being hit, the baseball flew backwards quickly and rushed towards the left field. Naoya Kuraza immediately dropped the bat and started running the bases.
“safe.“
Naoya Kuraza, who hit the bases, stood next to the first base bag, handed the protective gear he took off to the player who came to help him get the protective gear, and then took a few steps towards second base, making a gesture of being ready to steal the base at any time.
action.
Taro Fukuda, who came on as the second batter, moved his arms and walked to the batting box. He first glanced at Aomichi's dugout, and after receiving instructions from Director Kataoka, he raised his hand and touched the brim of his hat, bowing slightly and making
Waiting for the strike action.
As a result, Hiromi Tate struck out Taro Fukuda after five or six pitches. This made everyone in Qingdao realize that Osaka Kiryu, a second-year pitcher who looked scary, was not bad at all.
.
Hiromi, the pitcher of Kiryu, Osaka, laughed, waved his arms, strode forward, and pitched the baseball in his hand.
"call out!"
Behind Seido's third-bat Yuki Tetsuya was fourth-bat Daiki Murasuke. He stared closely at the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound, danced his arms vigorously, and swung the metal bat in his hand in an arc.
"Whoa!"
"Ping!"
The bat swept past home plate and collided with the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound. After being hit, the baseball flew backwards at a faster speed than before under Murasuke Omura's powerful swing.
.
Hiromi Tate looked at the rebounding baseball and raised her hand to stop it but failed.
Osaka Kiryu's second baseman Shogo Xashiki ran over quickly and tried to catch the ball before it hit the ground, but he still missed the ball. After it hit the ground, the baseball bounced and rolled a long way away.
Osaka Kiryu's center fielder Kenichi Marumo ran towards the baseball rolling on the center field lawn. At the same time, Naoya Kuraza was also sprinting towards the base in front of him.
After Kuraza Naoya rushed to second base, he found that Osaka Kiryu's center fielder had not picked up the still rolling baseball, and continued to run towards third base without stopping; Murasuke Dai on the other side picked it up after Osaka Kiryu's center fielder picked it up.
Before the baseball was passed to second base, a base slider successfully slid onto the second base bag (without sliding over the base bag). This chapter has been completed!
