Yagami walked towards Chris while panting, reached out and took the baseball that Chris handed him, then turned around and walked back to the pitcher's mound.
"In the second half of the ninth inning, Daocheng Industrial High School's attack, three bats, first baseman, Higaki-kun."
After Higaki Haojiro stepped into the batting box, he held the bat in his right hand and knocked on the ground. Then he directly made a posture ready to bunt and turned to look at Yagami Yagami on the pitcher's mound.
"call out!"
"Whoosh!"
"Ping!"
Yagami Yagami's pitch to the inside corner hit the metal bat held flat by the batter Higaki Hoshijiro, and then rolled toward first base.
"Out of bounds!"
The baseball that was hit by the batter did not roll very far before it rolled out of the infield sideline. Upon seeing this, first baseman Tetsuya Yuki immediately ran over and used his glove to block the baseball that was still trying to roll out.
"call out!"
"Whoosh!"
"Ping!"
Higaki Haojiro raised his bat and hit the high-center ball thrown by Yagami Yagami with his arm, causing it to roll toward first base.
"Out of bounds!"
The baseball that was hit didn't roll very far before it rolled out of the infield sideline. First baseman Tetsuya Yuuki ran over and picked it up.
Higaki Kojiro wiped the top of the bat with his left hand, then walked around the left batting area and the surrounding area, moving his arms and feet. After that, he regained his bunt posture.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
Yagami threw an inside-corner ball with a swing of his arm. Although the ball passed too high and successfully avoided the batter's bat, which was held flat above the plate, it turned into a ball.
When the batter swung the bat and repositioned himself for a bunt, Yagami threw a pinch ball to first base, preventing runner Keisuke Kawanishi from getting too far away from the base.
"call out!"
"Whoosh!"
"Ping!"
Facing the inside-corner ball thrown by Yagami Yagami, Higaki Haojiro directly changed from a bunt to a long ball, and hit the baseball thrown by Yagami Yagami hard towards the right field.
"First baseman, second baseman!"
After the baseball thrown by the pitcher was hit by the batter's swing, runner Keisuke Kawanishi, first baseman Tetsuya Yuki and second baseman Yuuki Tanaka immediately started running, and the defender tried to intercept the ball and flew backwards from home plate.
In baseball, the offensive team wants to use this to rush to second base, or even complete the sprint to third base.
"Crack!"
The baseball flying from home plate fell on the infield lawn after evading the interception of the first baseman and the second baseman, and then rolled all the way into the right field area.
Right fielder Hiroshi Ohta ran out from deep in the right field and bent down to pick up the baseball that was rolling towards him. Unfortunately, just when he was about to step in and pass the ball, batter Higaki Hoshijiro ran one base away.
The pack only has one last stride left.
“safe.“
Without any obstacles, runner Keisuke Kawanishi and hitter Higaki Hoshijiro successfully reached second and first base.
"In the second half of the ninth inning, Daocheng Industrial High School's attack, four bats, shortstop, Goto-kun."
Yagami raised his hand to catch the baseball passed back by Chris, then lowered his head and pinched the magnesium powder bag at his feet; Daocheng Industrial Five Baseball Yu Funabashi took the bat and walked out of the dugout on the third base side, heading to the waiting area.
Waiting for his start; Daocheng Industrial fourth-battler Goto Takashi got up and left the waiting area and walked towards the batting box at home plate.
Goto Takashi lowered his head to level the ground in the batting area with his feet, held the metal bat in his right hand and shook it, then directly assumed a bunt posture.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
Facing the high-center ball thrown by Yagami Yagami with his arm, Goto Takashi did not raise his bat to strike, allowing Chris's open ball sleeve to successfully catch the flying baseball.
“nice pitch.“
Goto Takashi took two steps back and took a deep breath to calm his breathing. Then he stood up again in the batter's box and assumed a bunt posture again.
Yagami Yagami made two pretend pitching movements on the second base side, so that the runner Keisuke Kawanishi at second base did not dare to steal bases at will, and then returned his attention to home plate.
"call out!"
"Ping!"
The batter, Takashi Goto, quickly moved his bat down and hit the low-center ball thrown by Yagami Yagami in the direction of first base.
"First base!"
Iori Yagami quickly ran down the pitcher's mound, bent down and grabbed the baseball on the ground, and then threw the ball to the first baseman Tetsuya Yuuki who was holding out his ball sleeve, waiting for his teammates to pass to him.
"Porphyrin!"
Tetsuya Yuuki raised his hands and put them together, successfully catching the baseball passed by Yagami Yohie. At the same time, the hitter Takashi Goto was still in the process of sprinting to first base.
"out"
The first base umpire raised his right hand to indicate that the batter was out. At this time, Goto Takashi had just passed the first base base.
"In the bottom half of the ninth inning, Daocheng Industrial High School's attack, five bats, left fielder, Funabashi-kun."
As soon as the announcement rang, Yu Funabashi stood up and left the batter's box, walking towards the left batter's box next to home plate.
After Yu Funabashi used his feet to clear the ground in the left batting area, he gripped the bat with his right hand and swung it around a few times before assuming a posture waiting for a hit.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
Yagami threw a ball in the outside corner with his arm, but the batter did not swing the bat.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
Iori Yagami swung his arm and threw a high ball in the outside corner, but the batter still didn't swing the bat.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
Yagami's control of the ball seemed to be getting worse and worse. He swung his arm and threw a ball at a very wide angle. If Chris hadn't reacted quickly, stretched his arm and moved the ball down to catch the baseball flying from the pitcher's mound.
If the pitcher misses, the opponent will definitely take this as an opportunity to win the game.
"call out!"
"Bang!"
“ball.“
Unexpectedly, Iori Yagami once again hit a bad ball in the outside corner, sending the batter Yuho Funabashi to the bases.
With the bases loaded and two outs, Qingdao faced the worst situation of the game.
"In the second half of the ninth inning, Daocheng Industrial High School's attack, six bats, pitcher, Saito-kun."
Saito Yuuki, who walked outside the batting box amid the sound of the broadcast and waited for the referee to redraw the line, looked very relaxed.
After the referee redrawn the sideline of the batting area, Qingdao's timeout just ended, and Qingdao catcher Chris was walking back behind the home plate.
After Yuki Saito nodded and said hello to Chris, who returned to home plate, and the umpire next to him, he stepped into the batter's box, and as soon as he stood up, he immediately assumed a posture waiting for a hit.
"call out!"
"bite!"
The batter swung the bat and used the middle part of the bat to block the inside corner ball thrown by Yagami Yagami. Seeing this, Saito Yuki immediately dropped the bat and jogged towards first base.
“nice pitch.“.
The baseball blocked by Saito Yuki's bat rolled directly out of the sideline, and the referee judged the ball as a strike.
After the referee gave a signal, the batter Yuki Saito could only turn around and run back to the right batting box, picked up the metal bat on the ground and waved it, in a posture waiting for a hit. This chapter has been completed!
