Chapter 68: Off-Site Pick-Up
Kouki Yoshida guessed right before.
Sawamura Eijun and Miyuki Kazuya did have other plans before.
After already taking a one-point advantage, neither of them was satisfied.
So they thought about scoring another point.
To accomplish this goal, conventional strikes may be difficult to solve the problem.
Yoshida's performance is too strong!
Before that, the killer decisive ball was hidden.
If you really want a head-to-head duel, considering that this is the first duel, there is no information for reference before.
Their chances of success are low.
Isn't it because of this reason that Sawamura Eijun used bunt?
If you know the opponent's detailed information, you can hit a long hit or even a home run with 100% certainty.
Sawamura Eijun was too lazy to talk nonsense with them.
In the situation just now, Kuramochi was on the bases.
If he could hit a home run, the Qingdao High School baseball team would score not one but two runs.
If the score reaches 2:0, then the Qingdao High School baseball team will not only have a certain chance of winning, but the situation will be much more favorable than it is now.
It was precisely because he was not so sure that Eijun Sawamura chose a safer approach.
Miyuki faced the same dilemma as Sawamura Eijun.
He is also not so sure that he can hit the opponent's ball.
Even if it was a fluke, I don't know where the baseball will land.
In this case, both want to score another point.
Then they have to use some means.
Hit and run!
As long as they are lucky and Miyuki can hit a hit, they have a great chance.
And they even thought of the following routine, this is the pioneering work of two people.
If the strategy is successful, although they will sacrifice one, they can also score an extra point.
Considering the strength of the opponent in front of them, the two of them will be satisfied if they can score two points in the first game.
Unfortunately, things are not that easy.
Miyuki missed the first hit and didn't even touch the ball.
This is more embarrassing!
Sawamura Eijun was almost out of the game.
Still in shock now.
The strategy that was thought out before can no longer be used anyway.
He glanced at Miyuki on the strike zone rather resentfully.
My little friend is too unreliable, no matter what, you always hit the ball!
Miyuki had an innocent look on his face.
The contestants of Jinzunong High School, because they have practiced together for a long time, can achieve the same mind.
The same goes for him and Eijun Sawamura.
They don't need to communicate too much at all, and they can understand each other's intentions with a small movement or even a look.
In this case, the success rate of their tactics is very high.
It's just that he capsized in the gutter.
Just now I was clearly confident that I could hit the ball,
But when the baseball was close to his hand, it suddenly sank.
Miyuki had never seen that kind of speed and momentum.
"This kid's strength is extraordinary!"
Miyuki began to seriously look at the opponent in front of him.
Yoshida looks very burly, 17 years old, he is already a man now.
With resolute facial features, he seems to be a very reliable character.
The tactics just now can't be used anymore!
It is very difficult to even touch the opponent's ball now, and thinking about those messy things is simply asking for humiliation.
Miyuki's attitude changed.
He knew very well that if they wanted to win the game today, they had to beat the pitcher in front of them first.
If you can't beat the guy in front of you, wanting to beat Jinzu Nong is nothing but a dream.
They are strong!
Although he was not well-known before, through the fight just now, Miyuki has already felt a sense of oppression from his opponent, which is no less than that of Narimiya Ming.
Needless to say, how thrilling their match against Daocheng was.
Such a guy can definitely threaten the Qingdao High School baseball team.
And the current situation is even worse than that time.
Cheng Gongming was their familiar opponent.
How much weight is there for him? What kind of characteristics does it have?
The boys on the Qingdao High School baseball team know it all.
But even so, if that game didn't have Chen Ping's help.
The Qingdao High School baseball team probably lost!
This is not alarmist talk, but an objective and cruel reality.
If it wasn't for Chen Ping to tie the score, Narimiya Ming might not have chosen to confront Eijun Sawamura head-on in the end.
He recommended Sawamura, the remaining players of Qingdao High School baseball team, can he still score points from others?
Stop dreaming!
On that day, Cheng Gongming would never give anyone else a chance.
The guy in front of him felt as oppressive as Cheng Gongming.
The most frightening thing was that the Qingdao High School baseball team knew nothing about the strength of this guy in front of him.
Originally they thought they knew more or less.
But through the confrontation just now, Miyuki understood.
What they originally knew was just superficial, not the real strength of the other party at all.
If they want to find out the details of each other, they have to spend more effort.
"Is the raid out of the question?"
Sawamura felt a little regretful, but he returned to first base obediently.
Out of trust in Miyuki, Sawamura Eijun also thinks that it is more important to first observe the opponent's true strength.
The kind of change ball that would suddenly sink, it's fine if Kuramochi didn't hit it.
Although his hitting ability in Qingdao High School baseball team is already very high.
But to be honest, that was the case in Sawamura Eijun's eyes.
Apart from his speed and defensive skills, Sawamura really doesn't like other aspects of his friend.
But Miyuki is different!
Even though the current Miyuki is still a little bit green, he is a player who has formed his own style.
Such players are very powerful.
Even if there is still a bit of youthfulness and immaturity, it must not be underestimated.
Even if Sawamura himself stands on the opposite side of Miyuki, he dare not say that he is fully sure that he can solve Miyuki.
Miyuki, who is so powerful, doesn't even touch the ball when he swings the bat.
How shocked is Sawamura Eijun's heart?
One can imagine.
Only such an opponent is worthy of all the players of the Qingdao High School baseball team.
"Whoosh!"
The pitching on the mound continued, and after Miyuki missed the first pitch, Yoshida quickly threw his second pitch.
The speed of this ball seems to be stronger than before.
Facing the ball, Miyuki swung his bat again.
This time he finally touched the ball.
But Miyuki didn't feel relaxed because of this, on the contrary his face became even uglier.
The moment the bat hit the ball, he felt that his arms were not his own.
Good weight!
The two arms seemed to have hit a big truck, and the bat in my hand was about to fly out.
Although this guy's ball speed is fast, it has not exceeded Miyuki Kazuya's tolerance.
Miyuki is enough to handle it.
But this guy's ball power is different!
Such a terrifying ball prestige can be compared with that little fat man in Chengkong Academy.
Such a ball, Miyuki just wanted to knock it out, and he had already consumed all the strength in his body.
He has no way to control the landing point of the baseball now.
After the white ball was hit, it flew high.
It fell towards the outside world.
Seeing this scene, Miyuki secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the situation has not reached the point of no return.
He still has a chance. Then study the opponent's pitching.
Miyuki obviously thought too much!
When he thought the ball would fall on the ground, he didn't expect a fast-running figure to quickly approach the ball.
Steadily received the ball into his glove.
In the process of running fast, judge the landing point of the baseball and catch the ball steadily.
The 20-meter-long long-distance attack did not make even the slightest mistake.
"Snapped!"
When the first baseman at Golden Foot Nong High School caught that ball.
Even the supporters of Qingdao High School's baseball team couldn't help applauding for him.
This performance is too wonderful!
Although the game has just started, there are not even 10 minutes.
But the exciting scenes of the game have flashed several times.
From undead strikeouts to Yoichi Kuramochi's powerful steals.
From the big devil Sawamura Sakae's pure skill short attack that shocked the audience, to the long-distance rush in front of him, the off-court catch.
Every shot is enough to make people overwhelmed.
This is destined to be a game that will be recorded in history.
Regardless of the final victory or defeat, or the score.
Just the excitement at the beginning of the game is enough to make everyone unable to take their eyes off.
"These kids are amazing!"
Akiko Owada, a reporter from Baseball Kingdom Magazine, felt her eyes moisten.
The players of the two teams have contributed wonderful performances.
Take her breath away.
Fujio next to him was also full of emotion.
The strength of the Qingdao High School baseball team is expected. Qingdao, who was able to compete with the North American Dream Team in the first place, has already been recognized as the number one in the country.
This is the third consecutive time they have scored in Koshien, and the goal is to be the champion.
Almost everyone thinks that it is only natural for the Qingdao High School baseball team to win the championship and become a legend.
During this process, it is difficult for them to encounter any decent obstacles.
Those who can pose a threat to the Qingdao High School baseball team are basically their old opponents.
Those old opponents are naturally extremely familiar with the Qingdao High School baseball team. Qing Dao is the same to them.
This kind of game is exciting, but it is usually the stronger side that wins.
It is because of mutual understanding that there are few accidents.
No one thought that there would be a team like Jin Zu Nong.
Obviously he was nothing before, but now he is evenly matched with the king Qingdao.
Although it is only a close match at the beginning of the game, other changes are likely to occur as the game progresses.
They are likely to lack stamina, or some other accident.
But even so, the Jinzunong High School baseball team has performed very, very well.
For another team, I am afraid it will be difficult to show their strength.
"Crack clap clap!!!"
"Crack, clap, clap!!!!"
There was prolonged applause from the stands.
This applause is not only for Okawa, who has just made an emergency rescue, but also for the Qingdao High School baseball team who performed before.
The performances of these two teams were fantastic!
They deserve the applause! The audience is also willing to give these applause to them.
Two outs, first base manned.
At this time, it was Qianyuan's turn to strike.
Miyuki's dismissal, and the failure of the previous swing, had a great impact on Maezono.
His movements were noticeably more restrained than usual.
Yoshida, who is in hot form, meets Maezono, who is out of form.
The result is needless to say.
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!!"
"nice shot!!!"
"strike out!!!"
