Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 305: Two hits, entering the scoring circle
Hearing these words, the catcher from Wanggu High School felt a slight tremor in his heart.

He thought his acting was flawless, but he didn't expect that Baizhou would still see through it.

I can only say, worthy of being a member of Qingdao High School?

Watching Baizhou walk back to the locker room step by step, the catcher of Wanggu High School finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought he would report it to the referee, but he didn't.

There is still a pattern.

Qingdao High School scored very quickly and didn't need any time at all.

The game continues.

Next, Higasa's ball was caught steadily by the third baseman, ending the inning.

Although Wakabayashi Hao allowed three hits in this inning, he only gave up one run.

Not bad.

In the next game, Wakabayashi Go and Fūya Akira started another pitching battle.

The two of them scored alternately and never lost any points, and the score was never widened.

Wanggu High School had no way of taking away Jiang Gu Xiao's ball.

Most of Fōgaya Akira's outs came from strikeouts, while Wakabayashi Go took advantage of his defense from behind.

Although he had a few strikeouts, they were still few and far between.

The game continued like this until the sixth inning.

At the beginning of the sixth game, when Xiao Fōgaya ran to the court, his steps were a little messy and he looked a little awkward.

It seems like I can't even run steadily.

Director Kataoka frowned slightly, as if he had realized something.

"High-load pitching still isn't working for you?"

Coach Kataoka shook his head and told Sawamura to warm up quickly.

He was originally ready to hand over the match to Fōgiya Akatsuki, but who would have thought that his physical strength would still be a problem.

In fact, this is not a problem of Akihiro Fōgiya's physical strength.

It’s a question of physical strength distribution.

Pitching nine innings shouldn't be a difficult task for Akira Fōtani.

Many pitchers can do it, let alone him who is qualified to compete for the ace pitcher in Seidou High School.

Not to mention.

But from the very beginning, Akatsuki Fōgaya was on full fire.

This is usually what teams with a reserve pitching staff do.

Seidou High School is naturally such a team.

During the Koshien period, Seidou High School's relay pitching tactics caused a lot of trouble for many strong teams.

I went all out at the beginning and didn't have enough energy to last until the end.

If Akihiro Kotani wants to shoot the entire court, the only way is to learn how to allocate his energy.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to continue pitching after the sixth inning.

Just like Yakushi High School's ace, Sanada.

Do you just rely on perseverance to make the investment?

This is a bit nonsense.

"Top of the sixth inning, Wanggu High School is on offense, fourth batter, first baseman, Kasuga-san."

Kasuga pointed the end of the bat at Fūya Akira on the pitcher's mound. He also noticed the details just now.

Therefore, getting rid of Fōgatsu Akatsuki now is definitely their best chance.

If he misses this time, then next time it's his turn, Qingdao High School might widen the score.

This way, they have even less chance of winning the game.

Haruhi is not only working for her own dream, but also for Wakabayashi Gou's dream and Wanggu High School's dream.

As a metropolitan school, if Wanggu High School enters Koshien in the Tokyo area, which is full of strong competitors, it will definitely cause an uproar.

Besides, Lin Hao’s dream is to defeat the powerful private high school.

And he himself also wanted to take a look at the Koshien stage.

In the summer, they lost to Teito High School.

In the first round of this year, Teito High School was eliminated by Qingdao High School.

"Steady."

Miyuki gave a secret signal. He knew that Fūya Akira's condition was already very bad, but he still hoped that he could stabilize.

Up to now, Miyuki has told Fōgaya Akira many times to conserve his strength, but he has never listened.

This kind of disobedient pitcher is really the most annoying thing for him.

Even though Fōgiya Akatsuki has a historical level of talent, he is really good at causing trouble.

Zhou Hui also has a historical talent and his ceiling is at the major league level.

But Zhou Hui doesn't have that kind of airs.

If Jōgō Aki had Zhou Hui's heart, he might not be so embarrassed.

"boom!"

The baseball came out suddenly, with such force that Haruhi was afraid that the ball would explode in the air.

But he still had to not be nervous at all.

Because he found that this ball was a little slower than the previous ones.

These are changes that can be seen with the naked eye.

Haruhi gripped the bat tightly; this was the moment he had been waiting for.

Finally, there is time for him to show his prowess!

He was 100% confident that he could hit this ball.

This is not groundless.

If it was Akihiro Kotani in his prime, he might still be a little afraid.

But the current state of Akihabara Kotani was really hard for him to look down on.

"Qiang!"

With a powerful swing, the bat hit the white ball.

When encountering this ball, Haruhi's expression also changed a little, but she still pulled it out forcefully.

If I didn't have enough stamina, I might not be able to hit the ball at all.

Although his speed has dropped a bit compared to before, his power is still there.

With the power of this ball, it will definitely make people's palms feel numb when they hit it.

This is where Akira Jōgō's advantage lies. He is very strong, and his ball speed and power are great.

When the speed of the ball cannot support the scene, the power of the ball at a speed of 150km/h is not to be underestimated.

"Third baseman!"

Fōgaya Akira looked to the side, but when the third baseman Higasa rushed over, he did not stop the baseball, allowing it to roll away.

Left field was lost!

Haruhi ran to first base.

No one out, first base occupied.

at last……

Wanggu High School can finally get a hit from Fūya Akira!

After reaching first base, Kasuga also clenched her fist and raised it above her head!
This feeling is so good!
"It looks like there's a chance."

The bitterness on Director Araki's face eased a little, and he revealed a mysterious smile.

If we do this, tying the score might not be a difficult task.

"Fifth batter, right fielder, Yamazato-san."

"The change of votes may have to be brought forward."

Qingdao High School's lead was not by three and a half points, but only by one point.

If they can't hold on to this point, they will lose the game.

If they want to defend, their only option is to change players.

Ever since Sawamura became the ace pitcher, Furiya Akira's status has plummeted.

He is no longer the pitcher that people can trust.

"boom!"

On the court, Akira Jōgō still used all his strength to throw the ball.

The white ball ran at high speed, but when it reached the strike zone, it suddenly floated up.

"Qiang!"

He swung the bat hard, and the baseball flew out, eventually landing in front of center field!
