Chapter 17: Game 5

One point to go!

The offense of the Seido High School baseball team is not over yet.

The next hitters are the very reliable Hakushu and Tojo.

There is hope, very much hope.

At this time, the friends of Qingdao High School baseball team desperately hope that the game can end as soon as possible.

Although they are now nine points ahead of their opponents, the feeling that Jing Nongmao High School gave them is really weird.

This feeling makes them very uncomfortable and makes them eager to get rid of their opponents.

Hakushu, who is in the third grade, has lived up to the expectations of his friends.

With his unpretentious swing, he hit the ball out.

"Ping!"

When the ball is hit, it feels as if it is taken for granted.

It seems that the ball should be hit like this.

"Safety!"

One out, man on first base!

It was unknown how many hits this was the Qingdao High School baseball team. Their offense was like a storm and never stopped.

the stands.

Fujio, a senior reporter for Baseball Kingdom magazine, gave such an evaluation.

"The game has reached the moment when the bayonet is red!"

The next duel will directly determine the direction of the game.

Judging from the score on the field, this is undoubtedly a contest of disparity in strength.

Although the players of Jing Nongmao High School are not weak, compared with Wangwang Qingdao High School, the gap is not small.

But oddly enough.

Such a match with such a disparity in strength gave people the feeling that it was a contest of even strength.

The contestants of Beijing Agricultural Trade,

He did not give up the game because of the huge score gap.

On the contrary, their players also showed extremely high fighting spirit.

It was as if they could really turn the game over.

It makes people feel, very incredible!

However, everything has a limit.

At this juncture, Ruojing Farmers lost ten points, or even more than ten points.

The result is catastrophic for them.

In the remaining round, they are absolutely helpless!

On the contrary, if this crisis is held, the players of the Seido High School baseball team will not be allowed to score.

Then there is still hope for Beijing Farmers!

Although it is a bit ridiculous to completely catch up with the score and even overtake it.

But there is still hope if the game continues to be dragged on.

As long as the competition is dragged on, the situation will gradually favor Beijing Farmers.

There are actually not many people with Fujio's strategic vision on the scene.

Unfortunately, several players from the Qingdao High School baseball team were among them.

For example, in middle school, Tojo, who once served as Matsukata Little League ace.

His strategic vision is very good.

The importance of this attack can also be seen at a glance.

Being able to score points is naturally the best result. Even if they can't score points, it will be beneficial and harmless to them to continue playing the line.

In the fifth round, Qingdao High School still had a chance to attack!

Steady and steady!

This is what Tojo is now pursuing.

On the other side, pitcher Huashan, who was forced into a dead end, was thinking about what Supervisor Oe taught him this year.

"The pitcher is the person who holds the ball the longest and is also the metronome of the game. The game starts from the moment the pitcher throws the ball. As the ace of the team, you have to count from the beginning. Get out, all possible outcomes!"

Baseball is not a sport that can be played only by brute force.

It also requires brains!

Its dismantling is just like playing chess.

From this point of view, baseball is fundamentally different from football and basketball.

As long as you can think clearly, everything on the field.

Then it's no problem to solve the opponent.

At the first base position, Hakushu is eager to try there.

On the strike zone, Tojo Hideaki was also eyeing.

Among the star players of Qingdao High School baseball team, these two players are not particularly famous.

Even many fans who like Qingdao High School baseball team can't remember their names.

But these two guys are very strong!

They calmly put pressure on themselves from both shooting and playing.

From the perspective of a pitcher, Huashan can clearly feel how much pressure these two people have brought to him.

That kind of pressure is enough to make people shudder.

All the fine hairs on his body exploded, irritating his nerves.

In such a passionate scene, Huashan's mood is very calm.

He felt himself suddenly, sublimated.

It's not the kind that doesn't care about winning or losing, but everything can be seen clearly.

For example, what should he do at this time?

"Whoosh!"

He opened his posture and threw the ball in one shot.

Before throwing the ball, he did not forget to use the peripheral vision of his eyes to pin down Hakushu.

As expected, that guy was bluffing and didn't act at all.

"Snapped!"

Facing the ball that was about to hit him, Tojo took a step back to avoid it.

Unknowingly, the aura condensed on him was consumed a lot in this way.

"Bad ball!"

This guy!

Dong-Jiao's light was not good, and he returned to his original position.

Then another bad ball!

Tojo had to retreat again!

Then there's the third bad ball!

At this time, the referee has already started warning.

Tojo, who has always been calm, couldn't help wondering if the other party had lost his mind?

Could it be that he will be escorted by the four bad guys?

Just when he was wondering, another ball flew over.

This ball entered the strike zone.

There was no way Tojo would sit back and watch such a strike, so he just swung and released it.

Baizhou, who was originally cooperating with him, was disturbed because of three bad shots in a row.

The action was half a beat slower.

"Ping!"

The moment Tojo hit the ball, Hakushu didn't have time to act.

I can only watch helplessly as the ball hits the ground and bounces into the pitcher's glove.

Huashan, who caught the ball, passed the ball to second base calmly.

The filling second baseman catches the ball and passes to first base.

"Snapped!"

"Out!!"

"Snapped!"

"Out!!!"

The incomparably huge crisis disappeared in such an easy way.

At the critical moment of the fourth game, Jing Nongmao unexpectedly scored a double play.

In the rest area of ​​Qingdao High School.

Sawamura Eijun stood up in disbelief.

Huashan's performance aroused his vigilance.

Although Huashan had retained his strength before, what he retained was just a change ball.

Although that kind of change ball is powerful, it consumes a lot of money for him, so it cannot be used as a conventional weapon.

So in fact, on the whole, Huashan is not a big threat to the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Although it will make Qingdao feel a little troublesome, but it won't really change anything.

Sawamura Eijun saw this very clearly.

But it's different now, that guy is actually in this short game.

Completed the reborn evolution!

Accumulate steadily! ! !

Before leaving the stadium for two years, I have been doing training silently, but there is no official game.

So much so that his strength improved very slowly!

But that doesn't mean that his foundation hasn't improved in any way.

The current evolution is the result of his solid foundation.

There may indeed be twists and turns in this game.

Eijun Murura could see that this was not the case, and many of the boys from the Qingdao High School baseball team could also see it.

In this way, the game came to the fifth inning.

Kawakami walked up to the mound.

Huashan has completed the evolution, but it does not mean that all the players of Jingnongmao have completed the evolution.

The vast majority of their players are still at their previous level.

With Chuan Shang's strength, deal with Jing Nong Trade's lower hitters.

Don't take it easy!

Three outs were scored in no time!

Even if the opponent's first hitter came on the field, it could not change the result.

In the second half of the fifth inning, the score between the two sides was still 11:2.

Nine points short.

Qingdou High School's offense starts with the lower hitters.

As long as they can score one point, they can end the game early.

But in the face of Huashan who has evolved, it is still unrealistic to expect the next hitter to solve him.

The first batter to come on was quickly out.

Once out, no one hits base.

It was the turn of the hitters to Kanamura, the ninth batter.

At this time, the mountain of flowers on the pitcher's mound looked particularly tall.

It is like a lofty mountain that cannot be desecrated by anyone.

In front of him, Jin Wan looked very small.

"It's really evil, how did this guy become so powerful?"

Everyone has fought against each other before, although Jin Wan didn't take advantage of it.

But it feels that the opponent is not completely flawless, not the type that completely prevents him from hitting the ball.

As long as he works hard, there is still hope to hit Huashan's ball.

But looking at it now, it seems that it is not the same thing at all.

The other party gave me the feeling that it was invincible.

"Ping!"

After a few entanglements, Jin Wan barely swept the ball away.

The ball didn't hit well either!

The ball that was hit was soft and weak.

It was like the urine of an old dog, before it flew out, it fell down.

The opposing third baseman then picks up the ball and passes it to first base.

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

Two outs, no hits.

There is still one point to go, and the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team can end the game.

But it was this point, but he couldn't get it no matter what.

Even the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team have already used all their strengths.

This result has not changed at all.

After two outs, Kuramochi stepped into the strike zone again.

The Seido High School baseball team scored more hits in this game.

Counting it, this is actually the fourth time that Kuramo has stood in the strike zone.

In the past, this is almost the number of hits he can stand in a game.

But even so, he still didn't have the confidence to hit the opponent's pitch.

Especially the change ball that the opponent uses as a trump card, until now, has never been used against Kuramochi.

"What kind of ball is it?"

Kuramochi was curious.

But he didn't dare to wait. If they really waited, maybe they would have no hope of ending the game early.

It has to be fast.

"Bad ball!"

"Ping!"

"The outside world!"

"Bad ball!"

"nice shot!"

The two entangled several balls one after another, and it seemed that neither of them was willing to admit defeat easily.

In the end, Huashan was the first to get two strikes.

Chasing Kuramochi!

On the last ball, he really hit his winning shot.

Facing the ball, Kuramochi swung the bat in his hand decisively.

In fact, he has no way out.

This ball can only be swung anyway!

As a result, the baseball suddenly fell when it was close to his hand.

This is, vertical slider!

Cang Mo saw the trajectory clearly, but it didn't help.

"Snapped!"

Bats and baseballs pass by.

Jing Nongmao won the last number of outs.

At the end of the five innings, the score of the two sides was 11:2.

Qingdao High School is still the opponent with a big lead.

It's just that there are not many smiles on the faces of the friends.
