After re-adjusting his condition, Iori Yagami raised his leg and stepped forward. Following Chris' request, he swung his arm and threw a sliding ball that slid from the high position in the inside corner to the middle position in the outside corner.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
Chris opened his glove to catch the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound, then took out the baseball from the glove and threw it back to Yagami.
“nice pitch.“
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“nice pitch.“
After a bad ball in the high outside corner, Yagami threw a straight ball in the middle outside corner. The batter Keisuke Kawanishi did not swing the bat as usual.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
Yagami Yagami threw an inside-corner ball with a swing of his arm. Because his condition had not been completely adjusted, the ball flew slightly inside from the pitcher's mound, and then flew out of the strike zone and turned into a bad ball.
The batter Keisuke Kawanishi walked.
The current situation on the field is that there are people on first and second base and no one is out. For Yagami Ya, Chris and even the entire Aomichi, the worst situation suddenly appeared.
While Keisuke Kawanishi was taking off his knee pads, he was talking to the team members who came up to get things, giving his own evaluation of the ace of Seidō, and asking the senior who came up to attack behind to work harder to completely beat Yagami Yagami.
After a brief conversation with Yagami, Chris left the pitcher's mound and ran back behind the plate.
Looking at the batter Ryuumi Koyanagi who was bunting in front of him, Chris was prepared to get the first two outs at the cost of losing 1 run.
"call out!"
Iori Yagami nodded, raised his legs, stepped forward, and waved his arms to throw a ball in the outside corner.
"bite!"
Koyanagi Tatsumi pushed the bat forward with a short grip in his hand, and pointed the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound in the direction of first base.
"First base!"
Yagami immediately ran down the pitcher's mound, intercepted the baseball that was about to roll over, and then swung his arm and threw it toward first base.
“out.“
First baseman Tetsuya Yuki raised his hand to catch the baseball thrown by Yagami, and blocked the batter Ryuumi Koyanagi from the base.
“safe.“
Daocheng Industrial's runners Naito Hirosaki and Kawanishi Keisuke took advantage of this opportunity and successfully reached third and second base.
Daocheng Industrial third-stringer Hinoki Kojiro walked into the batting area with his bat, while second-stringer Ryuumi Koyanagi walked into the dugout while waving and clapping with his teammates.
Chris gathered all the defensive players on the pitcher's mound, and then stated his plan, asking them to immediately return the baseball to home plate when the batter hit it, so that he could use it to hit the ball and run back to the base.
base runner.
"Qingdao! Qingdao!"
"Come on! Come on!"
"Winner! Winner!"
After getting the consent of others, Chris stretched out his right hand and placed it on the top of his folded palms, then waved it vigorously and shouted a few slogans before they dispersed.
After the timeout requested by Aomi, the hitter Higaki Kojiro held the bat tightly with both hands and leaned it against his right shoulder, then made a posture waiting for a hit.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
Chris moved his glove and caught the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound. Faced with the pitcher Yagami Yagami's arm thrown into the inside corner, the hitter Higaki Kojiro did not swing the bat to hit it.
Chris got up and pretended to pass the ball to second base, forcing the runner Keisuke Kawanishi to run back to second base, and then passed the baseball back to Yagami on the pitcher's mound.
"call out!"
"Whoosh!"
"Ping!"
Higaki Kojiro swung the bat vigorously and hit the low-center ball thrown by Yagami Yagami toward center field.
"call out!"
By the time center fielder Daiki Murasuke caught the rolling baseball and passed the ball to catcher Chris, the runner at third base, Hirosaki Naito, had already run back to home plate to score, and the runner at second base, Keisuke Kawanishi, He had already passed third base and was on his way back to home base.
"Crack!"
Chris stepped on the home plate with one foot, then leaned back, raised his hand to catch the baseball passed by Murasuke-senpai, and then quickly stretched out the baseball sleeve holding the baseball to the man who was sliding towards the home plate. Runner Qiqi Kawanishi.
“out.“
(ps: In the second half of the fifth inning, which lost two points in a row, it was Hidashi Tsuruoka's defeat, because they were unable to tie up the 1-point difference until the end of the game, and finally lost to Hayeda Miye.
Because of his short stature, the catcher of Hitachi Tsuruoka needs to leave home plate to catch the baseball thrown by the center fielder, but the runner slides across the plate right behind him, giving him no time to make a contact. Runner! If he were replaced by Chris, who is taller and has better catching skills, he would definitely not lose two points in a row because of this.)
Even though Daocheng Industrial failed to score another point, the audience still cheered for it, thunderous applause also sounded, and even the commentator's voice began to become excited.
"In the second half of the fifth inning, Daocheng Industrial High School's attack, four bats, shortstop, Goto-kun."
Goto Takashi walked up to the batting area with the bat in hand, leveled the ground with his feet, then waved the bat in his hand, and then waited for a hit.
Yagami turned his head to look in the direction of first base and made a motion to throw the ball, causing the runner Ryuumi Koyanagi, who was a certain distance away from the base, to rush back to first base. After that, Yagami returned his gaze. He walked up to the batter and followed the signal given to him by Chris, raised his legs and stepped forward, waving his arms to throw the baseball in his palm.
"call out!"
"Whoosh!"
"Ping!"
Goto Takashi swung the bat and hit the inside corner ball thrown by Yagami Yagami, and it flew away with great force.
"Out of bounds!"
It was a foul ball that went straight into the third base bleachers.
While holding the bat with his right hand, Goto used his left foot to level the ground in the hitting area. After doing the above, he swung the bat again and assumed a posture waiting for a hit.
Under the loud singing of the Daocheng Industrial support group, Yagami stepped forward with his legs raised, swung his arms and threw a high-position fastball with an outside angle that seemed a bit outside.
"call out!"
Unless it's a bad ball, generally no pitcher will throw a ball high in the outside corner. It can only be said that Chris's ball distribution is indeed unexpected.
"Bang!"
The baseball flying from the pitcher's mound, after a small displacement, flew smoothly across the home plate and fell into Chris's open ball sleeve. The batter Takashi Goto was in a posture waiting for a hit, but for some reason he did not swing it. He used the bat to strike, perhaps because he thought the pitcher was throwing a bad ball, so he didn't swing the bat.
“nice pitch.“
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
Faced with Yagami Yagami's swinging shot from a low position in the outside corner, Goto Takashi still did not swing the bat to hit it.
"call out!"
"Whoosh!"
"Ping!"
"Out of bounds!"
"call out!"
"Whoosh!"
"Ping!"
Goto Takashi swung the bat and hit the inside corner ball thrown by Yagami Yagami hard. It was an outfield fly ball that went straight to left field.
"Crack!".
Left fielder Takashi Fujii was running near the left field sideline, watching the landing point of the baseball flying from home plate, and then raised his hand to open his sleeve to catch the falling baseball.
"Three outs, exchange offense and defense." This chapter has been completed!
