Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 154 Don’t admit defeat

"Qiang!"

The seventh batter, Yuki, swung the bat in a circle and hit the baseball, sending it flying a long distance.

The last time he played, his performance was terrible.

He even performed the triple play, a "spectacle" that only happens once in a century on a baseball field.

To put it bluntly, this match was his "redemption" for himself.

After learning that the opponent would change the ball, Yukichi's guesses became bolder.

In addition, there was someone on the base, which maxed out his skill points.

This is the feeling he wanted.

This straight ball from the high inside corner was easily guessed by Yuki.

If you only know one straight ball, it might be difficult for Miyuki to guess.

But if you expose the other types of balls, then Miyuki can attack with all his might.

This is a very strange point about Yuki.

If you say that he has a good striking ability, he will occasionally give you some very eye-catching scenes.

But if you say his striking ability is poor, he can still put up many highlights.

Maybe when the buffs are not fully stacked, Miyuki will be an erratic hitter.

The ball flew straight over the right field fence and was a home run.

This was also Miyuki's first home run in Koshien.

Zhou Hui and Zeng Zi Toru on the base ran back to home base unhindered.

Including the batter Miyuki, three points were scored in one go!

5: 1!

Qingdao High School widened the gap.

Allen stood on the pitcher's mound, watching the Qingdao High School players running back one by one, unwilling to say a word.

They are completely different from other teams!
"You finally woke up!"

Miyuki had just returned to the lounge, but what he received was not cheers, but ridicule from Kuramochi.

Although he was joking about it, it was actually more about Kuramochi's excitement.

"Hehe, it's okay."

The students of Qingdao High School looked at the pitcher's mound again, and Allen's face turned green.

Their goal was also achieved.

Afterwards, although Allen did not have any mental problems, he still took care of the player who came on later from Qingdao High School.

For Bingcheng High School, it can only be said to be a false alarm.

But the problem is that the score has now been widened to four points.

If Bingcheng High School wants to pursue her, it may not be that easy.

Coupled with Qingdao High School's batting line, the score gap may be further widened in a few minutes.

"Top of the sixth inning, Ice City High School offense, third batter, center fielder, Michael."

The most fatal problem has come.

They don't have much time left now.

Including the sixth inning, there are only four innings left.

Chasing four runs in four innings, averaging one run per inning, is not an easy task in the sport of baseball.

It sounds easy, but anyone who plays baseball will tell you how difficult it is.

But Michael would never give up easily. He had to get a hit to help Ice City High School survive.

Compared with Allen, his ability is not that strong.

But facing the island country team, he is still confident that he can get a hit.

As long as he gets on base, the rest will be up to Allen.

It was also the first time that Allen helped Michael clean up the mess.

"The game has come to this point, so just play steadily. Losing one or two points is still within our acceptable range. Just don't lose too many points. Let's go for the low outside corner straight ball first."

Miyuki commanded calmly.

No matter what, they can't be allowed to pick up the ball.

Now is the time to test Seidou High School's infield defense.

The third baseman of Seidou High School is Toru Masuko, who moves relatively slowly, which is not good news.

Michael is a right-handed hitter, so the ball he hits is likely to go to third base on the left. Masuko Toru faces a huge challenge.

"Whoosh!"

As long as the baseball can't fly, Miyuki is prepared to lose one or two points.

They are still leading in the overall score, so there is no need to panic.

"Qiang!"

Michael wouldn't give any chances and would just "open fire" when he saw the baseball.

No mercy at all.

The small white ball flew close to the ground and rolled to the left outfield like a "ground cut".

Zeng Zi Toru rushed forward with all his strength, but the huge Shenxing became the "last straw" that broke the camel's back.

Michael originally wanted to run towards second base, but when he saw that it was Zhou Hui defending the left outfield, he immediately gave up the idea.

He was still very afraid of Zhou Hui's arm strength.

"How cowardly."

After Allen complained, he tied his shoelaces tightly and went to the batter's box.

He knew that he would not be able to get a hit against Tamba with his bat, so he wanted to use his speed to get to the base closer to home plate.

If the shoelaces were blocked at that time, it would not work.

"The fourth batter, the pitcher, is Allen."

The score of 5:1 does not mean the end of the game.

The more critical the moment, the more it can stimulate the players' potential.

Allen also wanted to make a breakthrough at this time and continue to contribute to the team's scoring.

"The momentum is different."

Supervisor Kitamura was very pleased.

Ever since these two brothers came to the island country to play games, they have been dissatisfied with each other every day.

It seems like no one can put pressure on them.

Now, someone has appeared who can put them under pressure.

The two brothers also put into use all they had learned throughout their lives.

Even if it stops here, Director Kitamura will be excited about the growth of the two.

"Let's stick with the original tactics and continue shooting the ball to the outside corner."

This tactic was pretty good. Even though Michael got to the bases, it was only a single.

Prove that there is absolutely nothing wrong with his tactics.

Just keep attacking the outside corner!
Once these two players get on base, the players behind them will be easy to deal with.

In fact, it is just a matter of face and protecting Danbo's self-esteem as a pitcher.

If these factors were not taken into consideration, Miyuki would even choose to walk both of them and face off against the batter behind them.

Except for Michael and Allen, no one from Ice City High School can conquer Qingdao High School.

"Whoosh!"

"The outside corner again!"

Allen was speechless.

Although this is also a tactic, he still felt uncomfortable without a head-on confrontation.

He couldn't even lift the ball on the outside corner, and not only could he not hit the ground ball very far, it might also be blocked by the infielder.

Seidou High School's infield defense is one of the best.

Except for Zhou Hui, all of Qingdao High School's top batting linemen are in the infield.

This is enough to see what kind of people they have in the inner field.

"Qiang!"

This time the baseball was picked up a little bit, but not too much.

Yuki at first base didn't stop it, and the baseball rolled to right field without any hindrance.

Another single.

No one out, one and two bases occupied.

Bingcheng High School has not given up yet!
They still want to win!
