Chapter 157: Promotion (2 in 1)

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team still couldn't bear it in the end.

After all, the Xinglong High School baseball team is from Nagano Prefecture and is a fellow of Eijun Sawamura.

It seems a little unreasonable to be bloodbathed by them.

Although Eijun Sawamura did it himself, from his standpoint, he seemed to have no choice but to do so.

If he was merciful, wouldn't the other players on Qingdao High School's baseball team be even more at a loss as to what to do?

Now Sawamura Eijun, since he has represented the Seido High School baseball team, has scored enough points.

It seems that there is no need for them to continue to push forward.

At the last moment of the game, the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team chose to show mercy.

With an absolute lead, someone hits base.

They also did not implement their previous approach, but confronted their opponents head-on.

If the Qingdao High School baseball team sticks to its previous style, it is still possible to score another one or two points.

In other words, their score in today's game is likely to be more than 10 points.

But in the end they chose not to do that.

With enough points ahead, they chose to face off.

Qi Haiyao himself is an extremely powerful player, and in today's game, he has completed his evolution again.

Now that he has exploded completely, the Qingdao High School baseball team and the rest of his friends still find it difficult to hit the ball well.

Then there was a miraculous scene on the field.

With Miyuki already at second base.

The friends of Qingdao High School baseball team did not choose tactics to advance, but confronted each other head-on.

As a result, the ball they hit either flew high or rolled to the ground.

Occasionally there are good routes, but they are blocked by players of the Xinglong High School baseball team with excellent fielding.

When there is no hope for a comeback,

The players of Xinglong High School's baseball team seem to let go.

They are not playing for the team now, but for themselves.

Go all out and want to play every moment of yourself on the court.

Faced with such prosperity, the Qingdao High School baseball team did not score any more points in the bottom half of the eighth inning.

The line ended on the seventh bat, Baizhou's body.

The friends who returned to the rest area immediately saw Director Kataoka's icy face.

In fact, this situation was not unexpected by Supervisor Kataoka before.

Or it should be said that it was precisely because Kataoka anticipated such a situation. Only then did the players on the field be vaccinated.

I didn't expect these guys to be so disappointing!

Except for Sawamura Eijun and Miyuki Kazuya, none of them really realized the cruelty of the game.

As long as the last out is not scored, the game is not over.

Anything is possible!

This truth, he did not know how many times he said it in the ears of the players before.

But at the critical moment, they still lost the chain.

It's stupid to show mercy to opponents on the court.

Don't these guys know anyone?

To be kind to your enemies is to be cruel to yourself.

By choosing to do this, they are being cruel to the Qingdao High School baseball team.

But for this reason, even if he reminded him countless times, it would not have any effect.

These players on the Qingdao High School baseball team are really lucky. They have met such a powerful ace as Sawamura Eijun.

Because of the existence of Eijun Sawamura, the Seido High School baseball team has the greatest guarantee of victory.

To put it bluntly.

It is precisely because of the existence of Eijun Arisawamura that the players of the Seido High School baseball team can save themselves from danger on the court time and time again.

Finally win the game.

For other players, as long as they don't make mistakes, victory is a matter of course.

But is that really the case?

I'm afraid it really isn't!

The cruelty of the game is that sometimes even if you perform well.

The results are not necessarily pretty either.

This is the reality of the game.

So for that beautiful result, players must put in more effort.

And this is what these players of the Qingdao High School baseball team lack the most.

They are having a great time!

Because there are star players like Sawamura Eijun and Miyuki Kazuya escorting them.

So much so that they lived one by one like flowers in a greenhouse.

It seems that without too much effort, the fruits of victory can already be picked.

The flowers in the greenhouse are certainly beautiful.

But it can't stand the wind and rain.

When they were on the baseball team of Qingdao High School, they were escorted by their companions, but what about these people after they went to college or even entered professional baseball?

What kind of problems will they encounter?

Supervisor Kataoka also knew that he was a little unfounded.

But there is no way, who made him the teacher of these guys.

Inevitably, I have to think more about these guys.

When they enter professional baseball or college, I'm afraid they will suffer a lot, right?

Director Kataoka still sincerely hopes that these players can mature earlier.

Before entering professional baseball or college, I have some experience.

This is his sense of responsibility as a team supervisor and as a teacher of these players.

But there are some things that the players can understand without the guidance of the supervisor.

They have to go through some beatings on their own before they can work.

Supervisor Kataoka was both angry and worried.

But in the end he didn't say anything, just waiting for the game to end.

After the game is over, he will find a chance to clean up these guys.

Make sure they understand that the game of baseball is never as simple as it is now.

Now that Eijun Sawamura and Miyuki Kazu are supporting them, of course they don't feel any pressure.

But what about later?

It is impossible to always have someone to support them.

It doesn't matter whether they want to go to college or enter professional baseball, as long as they want to make a difference in baseball.

They must understand a truth.

Teammates can certainly rely on the game, but they themselves cannot be eliminated first.

If he doesn't have enough ability himself.

During the game, the team does not need him to play.

The road of baseball, the higher you go, the narrower the road.

These guys were lucky to stay on the Qingdao High School baseball team.

To get a view of the top of the mountain.

But in the future, they changed teams and teammates.

They can only rely on themselves.

Even if they encounter difficulties, they can only solve them by themselves.

The game came to the 9th inning, which is the last inning.

The total score was 8:2, and the Qingdao High School baseball team led the opponent by 6 points.

Judging from Jiang Guxiao's previous performance, the players of the Xinglong High School baseball team wanted to score points from him at the last moment.

It seems that it is not an easy task!

It can even be said that it is very difficult.

"Victory or defeat is decided!"

In the stands, the other teams that had reached the quarter-finals also lost interest in continuing to watch the game at this time.

They have even started to leave.

Before leaving the field, several players took a deep look at the rest area of ​​the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Their hearts were filled with shock.

Today's Xinglong can be suppressed into this appearance.

This is surprising in itself!

What's even more surprising is that the guys on the Qingdao High School baseball team did this without even putting their ace on the mound.

What level has the current Qingdao High School baseball team reached?

There is a question in everyone's mind.

It has to be said that there is another intention of Sawamura Eijun and Miyuki Kazuya, or another purpose of the Seido High School baseball team.

It has also been reached!

They buried a nail deeply for their future opponents.

The game should have ended here.

But like Director Kataoka said.

Koshien has never been that simple!

The players of the baseball team of Qingdao High School were very kind and did not beat the dog in the water.

They somewhat saved some face for each other.

Although this reserved method is not on the bright side.

Moreover, players on the Xinglong High School baseball team must have certain abilities.

But in the end they all think so, and do so.

Judging from the results, they all succeeded!

As expected, the Xinglong High School baseball team stubbornly won three outs.

In terms of how the players of the Seido High School baseball team were selected.

These guys on the Xinglong High School baseball team are indeed easier to get outs.

But if one fails, they are also very likely to follow forever.

Let the Qingdao High School baseball team's lineup completely float.

How terrible will it end up being? No one can predict it.

The Qingdao High School baseball team showed mercy!

But these guys on the Xinglong High School baseball team didn't have the slightest intention of being grateful.

They didn't want to settle down and end the game.

In the last inning of the game, the players of the Xinglong High School baseball team still launched a swift offensive.

It caused great trouble for the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Oda, who was the first to stand on the strike zone, had been unable to hit Akira Furugu's ball before.

This time he put on a bunt stance at the beginning. Looking at that stance, he almost didn't put his whole body close to the strike zone.

It's not that Miyuki doesn't understand, how anxious are the players of the current Xinglong High School baseball team?

The game is about to end!

Most of the Xinglong High School baseball team are third-year players.

This also means that these guys are about to end their high school careers.

Now the end of their high school careers, only three outs remain.

Is it because they don't risk their lives?

Although he knew that the other party was likely to fight desperately, Miyuki was a little caught off guard by Oda's way.

Even if Jiang Guxiao is not in good condition now, his ball speed is above 150 kilometers.

Such a ball is amazing to watch from the catcher's position and the vent position.

Except for a very few players, the vast majority of players simply don't have time to react to such a speed.

In other words, as long as Jiang Guxiao makes a slight mistake in pitching.

Even if this mistake was not his own will.

The baseball is also likely to hit Oda.

Being hit by a ball like that is like being hit by a car speeding at 150 kilometers per hour.

If this position is not good, it is very likely that my life will be lost.

Why is Jiang Guxiao's ball so difficult to bunt?

The reason is actually very simple, it is because the ball is too fast and scary!

If the batterer hits normally, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be affected in the slightest.

Not to mention bunt!

It's normal to be unresponsive.

Like Oda, sticking his entire body into the strike zone.

It's almost like courting death.

What is he going to do?

Miyuki was a little puzzled.

Oda himself doesn't seem to have any special characteristics. He always smiles when he sees everyone, and usually there is nothing that is particularly conspicuous.

It seems like it's easy to get along with.

But it is precisely such a person that makes it difficult for others to guess what is going on in his heart?

When Miyuki was not sure, he gave Akira Furutani the signal to hit a straight ball.

The location is of course the outer corner!

There is no way, although Jiang Guxiao's pitching has improved a lot in the past year.

But in the final analysis, unstable ball control is still one of his biggest weaknesses now.

The batter is so close, it's too dangerous to throw a corner kick at this time.

If they hit him, the Qingdao High School baseball team wouldn't have to mess around.

In desperation, Miyuki had no choice but to let Xiao Gu take a corner kick.

And this point obviously did not escape Oda's calculations.

He took aim at the ball and hit the ball smoothly.

The guy who hadn't been able to hit the ball before, actually shot the first ball and hit the ball out.

Even the boys from Qingdao High School's baseball team were astonished when they saw this scene.

The relationship was too shocking, when they filled their seats, their reaction was half a beat slower.

As a result, the baseball flew out of their eyes!

At the last moment, the baseball team of Xinglong High School miraculously scored a single hit.

Then Hattori, who was regarded as a secret weapon, finally played.

This guy known as the Scud lived up to his nickname.

As the ancients once said.

There are only wrong names in this world, but never wrong nicknames.

Stealing the base at the beginning.

Even the combination of Miyuki and Akatsuki Fugu could not stop it.

Hattori managed to reach second base.

Afterwards, although Mari made a mistake in hitting, he still sent Hattori to third base without any problems.

One out, man on third base.

"Ping!"

Jun Matsumoto's older brother hit the ball beautifully into the outfield.

The ball was caught by Baizhou.

But the ball was hit too far, more than 70 meters.

With Hattori's speed, even if Baizhou wanted to stop him, it would be impossible.

Maybe it would be better to switch to Sawamura Eijun or Tojo.

After all, the two of them are pitchers, and it is still possible to pass the ball back in time.

Although this possibility is also very small.

After all, the time for a baseball to fly 70 meters is not small.

Such a long distance has to be accurately passed into the catcher's glove.

It is even more difficult than ascending to the sky!

In desperation, the boys from Seido High School's baseball team could only helplessly watch Hattori return to home base.

The score on the field became 8:3 in an instant.

The little friends who were merciful at first suddenly felt hot on their faces.

How embarrassing!

If this is really caught up or even overtaken by these guys from the Xinglong High School baseball team.

Are they still mixed up?

All the friends were red-eyed and stared at their opponents.

Sense of shame and then courage.

Although during the game, they lost a big face and fell a heavy somersault.

But in the end, none of these were able to change the outcome of the game.

The gap between the two sides is really too big!

It has reached a level that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

In the end, the score on the field will stay at this score.

The ball played by Nanami Haruka was confiscated in his glove by Sawamura Eijun in the outfield.

"Snapped!"

"Out!!"

"The game is over! In the summer of Koshien, in the eight-to-four competition, the first to win the promotion spot is the Wangwang Qingdao High School baseball team!!!"
