Ace of Diamonds Golden Boots Silver Rod

Chapter 575 The Counterattack Begins

"Miyuki!"

Hearing Watanabe's shout, Miyuki turned around and looked away, ignoring the others.

Senior Watanabe nodded to him seriously, and there was a hint of relief in Miyuki's eyes.

"What's wrong?" When Miyuki turned around, he found Sawamura taking a really deep breath.

"This guy is too arrogant, I need a little education." Kuramochi said with a smile.

"This is not a little!

Please be gentle! "Sawamura protested.

“Sawamura!

I'm going to increase the number of high-speed changeups this game! "Miyuki interrupted the casual chat and started talking about business.

"Hi!

Please leave it to me! "

"let's go!"

"Oh!!!"

……

"Ping!"

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

"This ball didn't hit the center of the ball. It was an infield ground ball. The batter didn't hit the ball well at all!!"

"Starting from the second game, Sawamura began to show a sense of stability."

"Yo Xi!!"

"puff!"

"..."

"Whoops!" (these two represent high-speed change balls)

"Ping!"

"Out!"

"Two out! Eijun-kun!"

"Very good!! Sawamura!"

"Don't get carried away!"

The two batters were eliminated in only five pitches. Sawamura's pitching rhythm was very fast, giving people a very comfortable and smooth feeling.

"Did the ball just reach your hand and move?" Kadota-senpai said to Team Zhe.

"Ah! You can see it a little bit from here!" Captain Zhe nodded.

"Really?"

"Yeah! It's obviously moving!

The pitched ball is slower than an ordinary straight ball.

I felt it was almost time to take a shot, but when I was swinging the bat, the ball suddenly moved. "

“It’s really tricky!

And it's exactly the same posture as a straight shot. The ball speed is not much different, which is fine, but if it moves, it will be difficult to hit! "

Wang Gu's bench also began to notice this type of ball as the number of high-speed changes in this game increased.

Just like Aomichi's jet ball against Wakabayashi, Ou Gu thought it was just an accidental movement at first. At this time, he was finally convinced that this was a change ball that actively changed.

"Ping!"

"Another grounder from second base!"

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

"Oh!!!" There was an exclamation from the stadium.

"Well done! Sawamura!"

"This hitter was solved with just one pitch!!"

“Using the pitching that brought the opponent over, it only took six pitches in this inning, three on and three down.

At the beginning of the second inning, Wang Gu High School didn’t have a single hit! ! "

"Ordinary change-up balls can't be thrown, but this ball is exceptionally easy to use?" Miyuki stood up with a smile and thought to himself.

“Yo hi yo si yo si!!

Yoxi yoxi yoxi! ! "

This time, no one stopped Sawamura, everyone let him scream as much as he wanted.

"A left-hand pitch with a weird pitch, and on top of that there's a moving ball!

The deviation value is surprisingly high!

This bastard! "Ruo Linhao was still so proud and said in a condescending manner.

"The kind of collapse in the first game..., there will definitely be opportunities to take advantage of it.

Now is the time to be patient, just keep taking the beating, and observe carefully.

Wait for the opportunity to come. Ruo Linhao gritted his teeth in his heart.

This guy is also a person who doesn’t mean what he says...

"Today's Sawamura's pitching content after the second inning was very good." Kanemaru sighed.

"what!

That guy has always been very courageous, and today's pace is very good! "Tojo agreed.

"Today's game, they kept flying towards me!" Koharu walked to Sawamura who was drinking water and said with a smile.

Xiandao said that that look and tone were too girly and too arrogant...

"Hum hum!

I aimed to let the ball fly to Koharu. "Sawamura said with a proud smile on his handsome face.

"How is that possible?

But, it’s fun to defend!

The rhythm is also very good! ! "Xiaochun smiled.

With that voice and look, Xiandao almost died on the spot.

Xiandao can guarantee that if Xiaochun is a girl, she can instantly kill more than 90% of girls...

"Right!!! Right!!!" Sawamura looked like he was asking for credit and smiled excitedly.

"Um!

The hitters basically hit that high-speed changeup ball!

Although they were not sure of the reason, they all wanted to hit the ball to the left with all their strength, but due to the sudden change, the ball missed the center of the ball and instead rolled in the opposite direction. Xiandao tightened his throat, adjusted his mentality, and said.

"I see!

But why did they fight to the left?

They usually shoot to the right! "Xiaochun understood, but found a new problem.

"...!" Xiandao was silent for two seconds.

"What's wrong? Immortal!

A look of reminiscence on his face. "Sawamura said.

"Is that a memory?

It’s no different than usual! Immortal Lord Him! "Koharu looked at Sawamura in confusion, curious about how he could identify the facial expressions of Sendao, a master of emotion management.

“Seeing them reminds me of my junior high school days.

We have done the same thing as them!

Recently, we really often come across teams that collided with some of our junior high school counterparts!

The same goes for Ukumori, and so does Oya. "Xian Dao said.

"What are you talking about?" Sawamura has no memory at all.

“Spring Market!

Aren't you curious why they hit to the left?

If I guess correctly, their coach should have the same idea as I did in junior high school. "

"Oh!" Xiaochun said that he was listening.

Several others also looked over curiously. They were obviously very curious about the baseball environment of Sendō and Sawamura Junior High School and wanted to get a glimpse of it.

"In general, which direction does a person hit the ball the strongest and furthest?"

"Well, for right-handed hitters it's in the left field direction, but for left-handed hitters it's the other way around, right?" Koharu thought for a moment and said.

"That's right!" Xiandao nodded.

"But, because of teamwork in baseball, if you hit the ball to the right, the base will be pushed farther when you hit it, right?"

“First of all, do today’s pitchers allow hitters to hit right easily?

Second, hitting to the right is indeed the best way to advance the bases.

However, you must first hit a ball that is as powerful as the most convenient direction!

If you can't hit it, if you can't hit it well, it means nothing.

This is the purpose of hitting in the strongest direction, the easiest direction, the farthest direction, and the batting average will naturally be higher!

Reasonable tactics can only be promoted by the strong, while the weak pursue hits and scores.

Even if you can't advance the base in one breath, you still want the ball to fly farther. This is the most stable way.

This is the most suitable time for practice, where talents are not at an advantage... a fighting method for a weak team," Xiandao said with seriousness.

"I understand!" Xiaochun nodded solemnly.

"Immortal way!" At this time, Yu Xing said

"Ok?"

“This round is the final observation time.

We are about to start from the third round. Watanabe has confirmed it. Your intuition is so accurate! "

Of course, what Miyuki was talking about was what Sendō brought up during the combat meeting. He found it strange, and Watanabe-senpai finally discovered it after staying up all night for a week after practice.

"That's Watanabe-san, you really found that place!" Sendao said with a smile.

"Ah! It's really awesome!

That rascal! "Speaking of Watanabe, Miyuki sighed.

"It's time for us to fight back!!" Xiandao said with a smile.

“In the first half of the fifth game, Seido High School’s attack,

Seven bats, left fielder, Tojo-kun! "

“This is the true mid-game battle!

There is still one point left!

It’s almost time to rewrite the score! "Stand on the Tojo secret passage in the strike zone.

"puff!"

"call out!"

"Bah!"     Bad ball!

"This is the same as that. Don't hit the low ball at all!" Wakabayashi Hao was a little anxious when he saw Sawamura's pitch.

"puff!"

"call out!"

"Ping!"

"call out!"

"puff!"

"A shot to left-center field!!"

"Nice strike! Tojo!!"

"Run! Run!"

"Yo Xi! Double hit!!"

“This inning also has runners on base with no outs!!!”

"It looks like this round will be the third round of line-tying!" Xiandao said with a smile.

"what!

Really looking forward to it! "Miyuki also laughed.

“That’s not an easy golf course!

This bastard! ! ! Ruo Linhao turned around and gritted his teeth.

"Tojo!! Tojo!!

Our... Tojo! "The little angel is as happy as the Chinese New Year.

"Ding!"

"Yo Xi!"

"The bunt was successful!"

"The runner is steady reaching third base!!"

"Qingdao is still advancing steadily!"

"That's one out and a runner on third base!!"

"snort!!

This short game is just so-so! "Sawamura imitated the breathing of his seniors in the palace and said with his arms crossed.

“Asshole! Sawamura!

Pick up the bat! ! " Kuramochi cursed as he walked out of the bench.

It turned out that Sawamura had just thrown the bat on the ground just to look cool. After all, he was the follow-up hitter.

"I didn't have any experience in bunting when I was in junior high school, so this is already good." Xiandao said to himself with a smile.

"Look at me!!" Sawamura shouted.

"Ding!"

And then a bunt...

"Forced distinction!!"

"Great bunt!!!"

“Tame score!!!

In the first half of the fifth inning, Qingdao scored again..."

(The little angel adds one...)

"At this time, points will be forced to be collected!" an audience member exclaimed in confusion.

"That pitcher... his hitting is terrible!" A die-hard Qingdao fan next to him couldn't help but say.

"is that so?

Seeing how well he plays the short game, I thought he was a skilled hitter! "

"really!

However, I don’t know why I hit the bunt very well! nHope it will improve next year! "As he said this, the audience covered his face.

“Why don’t you let me fight!!

Wouldn't it be better to fight this situation out? ! "Sawamura walked off the court with an atmosphere on his face.

"Yes! If you can hit me!"

"I can't even hit you!"

Kuramochi and Miyuki had the opportunity to speak at the same time...

"This guy……

It’s like you haven’t heard anything! ! "The people on the bench were collectively stunned.

Because Sawamura didn't seem to hear the two people's complaints and walked back to the bench carelessly.

"Same as Watanabe said, now you can see clearly in the strike zone!" Miyuki said to the bench.

"Watanabe!

What a blessing that he was able to discover it! "Minister Ota said.

"Um!

Although there are reminders of immortality, it is really amazing to be able to find such small similarities!

I really admire that guy's intelligence analysis skills! ! "

Coach Kataoka also showed a happy smile.

Then he nodded to Kuramochi, meaning to start fighting.

"One hit! Shortstop, Kuramochi-kun!"

"Two out! Gou-chan!!"

"Two out! Two out! And there's no one on base."

“This score is also within the expected range!

I never expected to lead by two points until the end.

The rest must be solved one by one! Ruo Linhao adjusted his hat and thought to himself.

……

"puff!"

"puff!"

"Ok?"

The catcher's eyes widened in shock.

"call out!"

"Ping!!"

"Hitch to left field!!"

“The first pitch was a hit, and in the blink of an eye there was someone on Qingdao’s base again!!!”

Is this the clarion call for counterattack? ! ! ! "The commentator shouted.

Just after scoring one run, there was a solid hit, which was refreshing.

“Isn’t this a good fight?!

Although it is just a coincidence! "Sawamura shouted loudly.

"It's so noisy!" Kuramochi, who had just reached first base, laughed and cursed in a low voice.

I feel good when I get a hit...

"He just stepped forward without hesitation!" Wang Gu's catcher was still thinking about this.

"Two bats! Right fielder, Hakushu-kun!!"

"This guy will be in trouble as soon as he gets on base!" Wakabayashi looked at Kuramochi at first base.

“But now it’s two out!

If you want to run, come and try! "

"puff!"

"call out!"

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!!"

"Hey!" Ruo Linhao imitated Bruce Lee's cry.

"It's a crossbow on the first pitch again!!" Kadoda-senpai said distressedly.

"Hakushu Kenjiro!!

Quiet, steady and down-to-earth... Possessing the skills to thoroughly implement team-based strikes!

If it were to be played, considering the runner was at first base, he would probably find a way to pull it to the right.

They completely attacked the outside corner! "Wang Gu surrendered and reached a consensus.

"Go-chan! Hit against the hitter!!"

"Let him call over!!"

Following his shout, the fielder began to move his defensive position, and his defensive focus shifted to right field.

Practitioners of the Qingdao cannot turn a blind eye to this behavior.

"The opportunity has come!!" Xiandao secretly said.

"puff!"

"ku! ku! ku!"

"puff!"

Kuramochi started decisively and Hakushu stepped decisively.

"call out!"

"Ping!!"

"Push it right out!!!"

Because it was a push, the ball didn't fly far, but it was still far enough for the runner to get to the next base.

"One or two hits in a row!!!"

"Now it's two outs and one and two bases!!"

“In this situation, it’s Qingdao’s turn for the 3rd, 4th and 5th centers to hit the line!!!”

“Baseball starts with two outs, remember that!

Ah ha ha ha! ! ! "The Sawamura audience laughed triumphantly.

"I'm going out!" Xiandao said while holding the bat.

"Three bats! Second baseman, Minato-kun!!"

In such a crisis, Wang Gu could only choose to pause.

　My stomach is noisier today than yesterday, but not as bad as the day before yesterday...

　　Really evil
