Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 304: Bases Loaded Walk

"No one is out, the bases are loaded, it's Qingdao High School's great opportunity! The next batter to come out to bat for Qingdao High School will be the fourth batter, Zhou Hui!"

"The fourth batter, first baseman, Mr. Zhou."

No one out, bases loaded.

The batter is still Zhou Hui.

In this situation, scoring doesn't seem to be a difficult task.

Zhou Hui's current achievements include a 100% batting average from Koshien to now, and an average of two home runs per game in the autumn tournament.

It can be said that he is the strongest high school student now.

none of them!

Although he is still young, his playing style and mentality are not what he should have at his age.

It is not difficult to see from the fact that he can become captain in the fall that this guy definitely has extraordinary potential.

Very mature.

Zhou Hui raised the bat and stared at Ruolin Hao. All his muscles were tensed and all his strength was gathered together.

At this moment, if there really was a baseball with a good pitch and it was flying very fast, he would not be able to handle even ten balls at once.

"Oh no?"

"Are the bases loaded now?"

"What do you think?"

There was a sudden commotion at the scene and Zhou Hui didn't know what was going on.

His eyes were always on Wakabayashi Hao, and he didn't care about other positions on the court.

He only reacted when he heard the noise at the scene.

Looking at the empty strike zone on the side, a figure suddenly appeared.

That's the catcher from Wanggu High School!
The catcher of Wanggu High School stood above the left batter's box, standing very straight.

"Conveyance?"

Zhou Hui couldn't believe it either.

The bases are full now.

If he were to walk, Kuramochi at third base would be forced back.

This is equivalent to giving Qingdao High School a point for free.

Many people were surprised that Wanggu High School, a strong school, would do this.

After seeing this action, Director Kataoka was also dumbfounded.

In order to avoid a head-on confrontation with Zhou Hui, he chose to give them a point.

You know, the situation is not so clear now.

The two sides are now in a pitching battle, and the side that scores points first will definitely take the initiative.

Giving up one point at this time is equivalent to giving up the good rhythm of the entire game.

Besides, Qingdao High School is in its prime now.

Even if Zhou Hui is passed up, Chun Shi who comes next will not be an easy bone to chew.

The challenge of Seidou High School cannot be solved by simply sending in a fourth batter.

"Bad ball."

"Bad ball."

"Bad ball."

But Wanggu High School obviously didn't think so much. Lin Hao had a blank expression on his face and very compromisingly threw three bad balls.

"Snapped!"

On the last pitch, the baseball was thrown into the Wanggu High School catcher's glove.

"Ball. Ball. Walk."

Everything is so familiar.

Zhou Hui threw away the bat and ran over on his own.

He hasn't hit a single blow in this game.

Judging from what Wang Gu High School said, he might not be able to strike back in the future.

Kuramochi was pushed back to home base and scored first.

Qingdao High School scored first!

In the audience, several generals from Chengkong Academy and Xianquan High School also narrowed their eyes.

"Is Zhou Hui already so terrifying?"

After the match between Qingdao High School and Wanggu High School is over, the next match to take place will be between the two major universities, Chengkong Academy and Xianquan High School.

Both teams are traditional strong teams in West Tokyo.

The winner between them will meet the winner between Qingdao High School and Wanggu High School.

There is no reason for either team not to watch this game.

But they were really dumbfounded when they saw that Lin Hao had not chosen to face Zhou Hui head-on. Even if it meant losing points, he would not face Zhou Hui head-on.

They do this, not without reason.

If they face Zhou Hui head-on, they might lose four points. If they don't face Zhou Hui head-on, losing one point will be enough.

They can still clearly distinguish who is strong and who is weak.

1: 0.

Seidou High School is leading.

"Fifth batter, second baseman, Kominato-san."

Pink-haired Chunshi came on the field, looking at the good situation with the bases loaded in front of him, and he was eager to try.

This way, we will score points.

No one out, bases loaded.

"Whoosh!"

Sure enough, if Lin Hao raised his hand, he would shoot the ball.

Zhou Hui was recommended because of fear. If he was not recommended, it would not be worth it.

Seeing the baseball coming towards him, Chun Shi swung the bat without any hesitation.

"Qiang!"

In addition to his forkball, Wakabayashi's straight ball is also a killer move, but it is not as scary as the forkball.

If Lin Hao only has these two types of balls to shoot.

One is a straight ball and the other is a fork ball.

Whenever the third type of ball was used, it would be broken up by Qingdao High School's fierce attack.

The baseball flew high but did not fly fast. Instead, it began to slowly land in the right outfield.

"Snapped!"

Right fielder Yamazato caught it steadily.

"Out!"

The first out was won just like that.

But it wasn't over yet, as Shirasu on third base had already started running towards home plate.

Shanli swung his arm and threw the ball to home base.

From the looks of it, it's already the maximum strength possible.

They don't want to lose this point at all!

The white ball rushed towards home base like a laser beam.

Seeing that Yamazaki was serious, neither the second baseman nor the shortstop dared to take the ball.

Let the baseball fly.

Their eyes all followed the ball towards home base, and everyone was extremely nervous.

They don't want to lose two points.

The purpose of recommending Zhou Hui is to lose less points.

If they continue to concede points to Qingdao High School, what will be the point of their admission this time?

"Snapped!"

The catcher of Wanggu High School pressed the baseball, but Shirasu had already slid over by then, still trying to avoid the glove.

Of course, the catcher of Wanggu High School didn't tolerate it. As Baizhou turned, he pressed his glove over.

Unfortunately, when Shirasu touched home plate, the glove did not touch Shirasu.

The catcher from Wanggu High School was shocked at first, but he quickly showed the baseball in his glove to the umpire.

There was a lot of chaos at home plate on this pitch, and the umpire didn't see the situation on the field clearly.

Only the two players will know whether they met or not.

The catcher of Wanggu High School did this, which was actually a gamble.

He bet that the referee made a wrong judgment.

If he shows it too obviously, the referee will be able to tell from his expression.

Every catcher actually has the potential to be an actor.

The referee hesitated for a moment, and his right fist seemed to be about to hit the ground.

"Out!"

"Pretty!"

Yamasato jumped up in right field and was really happy as the creator of this double play.

Baizhou smiled, brushed off the dirt on his body, and spoke softly.

"You didn't touch me with that ball just now, did you?"
