Ace of Diamond: The Pitcher Returns

v2 Chapter 73: 1 chip

"The other party has taken action!"

After discussing the strategy on the mound, the players of Bunkyo High School quickly took action.

In the face of no one out, there are people on the first and third bases. They very decisively chose to face off against Chunichi Kominato.

At the same time, the defensive position of the infielder has also been greatly adjusted.

The first and third basemen all have varying degrees of forward pressure. The shortstop and second baseman stepped back accordingly.

The garrison of the entire infield formed a huge M!

"Infield defense cross!"

Miyuki in the rest area also muttered in a low voice.

"what?"

The front garden next to him asked with a frown.

"A kind of defensive formation, with the base bag as the core for defense, it seems that the opponent wants to win the double kill..."

Ambitious!

Not surprising though.

In the face of such a dangerous situation, if the other party remains indifferent, it means that they are courting death themselves.

As now, choose to take the initiative to struggle.

In fact, it couldn't be more reasonable.

Even if the risk of struggling like this is great, as long as it is struggling, there is hope.

As if thinking of something, Miyuki also glanced thoughtfully at Kataoka not far away.

Kataoka had the pair of sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, making it impossible to see his expression at all.

Just when Miyuki was hesitating, did she want to take the initiative to remind her supervisor? Ochiai, who was originally sitting in the rest area, came up at some point, and said while stroking the mustache on his chin.

"The other party has started to act!"

He didn't say a word more than that. However, he believed that with the ability of Superintendent Kataoka, he would definitely be able to understand what he meant.

Kataoka didn't let him down either. After nodding indiscernibly, he decisively signaled the players on the field.

Now the other party's purpose is obvious.

We don't want us to get another point anyway.

What to do in this situation?

Of course you can't let it go.

The more strictly guarded the opponent, the more we have to tear a hole in the opponent's body.

Third base Wang Xi, find the opportunity to steal base directly.

First base runs to second base when there is a chance, and when there is no chance to create a chance, it is also necessary to put on a stance of stealing base.

Put the pressure on the pitchers on the mound!

After instructing the runners on the base bag, Supervisor Kataoka gave a signal to Haruichi Kominato on the strike zone.

This point will be taken no matter what.

After the three received the code, they all looked serious, but no one said anything, they all nodded slightly and went their separate ways.

As the three acted together, the entire court immediately became agitated.

Even the supporters who had been cheering for Qingdao High School with great enthusiasm, at this time, their voices gradually became lower.

It's not that they don't want to cheer the team, it's the scene in front of them, it's so exciting, they're really afraid of missing a key point.

"It's time to decide the game!"

In the stands, Fujio, a senior reporter from Baseball Kingdom Magazine, said decisively.

Akiko Owada next to him also recognized this very much, and his head nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

They can see it, let alone the scouts who come to the game on purpose.

Although the players that these scouts are concerned about are not on the court now, this does not affect their appreciation of the game at all.

So exciting!

This kind of fierce collision, even the veterans like them who have been in the baseball business for many years, are full of enthusiasm and excitement.

"That's the charm of high school baseball!"

Because professional baseball is too mature, it is inevitable that there will be a little less passion.

For example, a professional baseball team has at least ten pitchers.

In this case, if the pitcher is not in good shape, they will immediately change. In order to reduce the possibility of the team dropping points as much as possible.

In contrast, high school baseball is not.

Here you can see more strong collisions and more adventurous tactics.

Although the technology is inevitably immature, it is definitely not bad for viewing.

This is the charm of high school baseball, and it is also the most primitive charm of baseball.

With the attention of tens of thousands of people in the audience, the tactical duel between the two teams began.

In the position of the catcher, Aokusgi's palm was a little damp.

Not to mention other friends, even he was too nervous. On the contrary, those exchange students, because they have experienced many scenes, behaved relatively calmly.

Nervousness turned into nervousness, and Ao Mushan's thoughts were never disturbed from beginning to end.

On the mound, they had already negotiated tactics. Now let's see how the strategy works...

Will it bring the team back to life? Or by the opponent's powerful strength, directly beaten to death.

These, Aokisu has no way to determine.

But that didn't stop him, he did so boldly.

bring it on!

Signaling a signal to the pitchers on the pitch, Aoki Sugimoto squatted in the catcher's position.

"Whoosh!"

Without any hesitation, Jack April threw the small white ball in his hand.

It seems that his pitching rhythm seems to be faster than Sawamura Sakamura, and in the blink of an eye, the small white ball has come to the front.

Hurry, really fast!

The kind that catches people off guard.

Haruichi Kominato, who originally wanted to use a bunt, changed his mind immediately after seeing the ball and took the bat back.

The small white ball precisely got into Aoki Sugi's glove, making a huge shocking sound.

"Boom~"

This extremely heavy ball makes people shudder.

"Minato didn't use bunts?"

In the rest area of ​​Qingdao High School, there was a lot of discussion right away.

Obviously, this result is somewhat difficult for everyone to accept.

In the case that the opponent has already come up with a countermeasure, in the case that the opponent absolutely does not want to continue to lose points, and chooses to confront the players of Qingdo High School head-on.

Isn't Qingdao High School supposed to do the opposite and get a point first?

As long as...get another point, you can completely push the opponent in front of you into the abyss.

Even from a psychological point of view, isn't it best for one's own side to do the thing the other party is most unwilling to see?

"It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he can't."

Miyuki also heard the discussions of the surrounding partners and took the initiative to speak.

"You can't use a bunt on the ball just now. If you don't hit it, the ball will bounce far away."

"how do you know?"

Qianyuan asked inexplicably.

"Minato Chunichi is so judgmental, I just want to believe his judgment."

Miyuki really guessed right!

When Kominato Haruichi tried to knock out the ball in front of him, he suddenly felt a sense of ignorance.

He felt the ball was heavier than anything he had come across before.

There is no reason, there is this intuition.

Kominato Chunichi trusted his instincts and gave up the ball.

Did you notice it?

In the position of the catcher, Aokisugi frowned and looked at Kominato Haruichi.

No, probably not yet.

The position and action of the strike have not been adjusted, so it should have not been noticed.

Or just be suspicious.

"It feels so sharp!"

I muttered silently in my heart, but Aokushan still decisively issued the previous code.

Because Qing Dao High School was chasing them too tightly, correspondingly, they didn't have many choices.

In this way, it is not completely without benefits.

Now they can be more firm in their choice.

Anyway, there is no way out, who cares, come again.

bring it on!

Aokisugi's aura like breaking the boat and sinking the boat infected Jack April on the pitching mound.

"Xiao Shan, that's how it should be."

Jack April couldn't understand the mother-in-law and mother-in-law of the islanders.

By contrast, he prefers face-to-face duels.

A real knife and a real gun.

"Whoosh!"

The white ball came to Kominato Haru City at a faster speed than before.

This time, Kominashi was clearly mentally prepared.

He took the normal swing.

"Ping!"

The moment the bat touched the small white ball, Haruichi Kominato felt as if his arms were run over by a car.

Heavy to die.

He tried hard to get the ball back on track, but couldn't.

After hitting the bat, the white ball bounced out of bounds.

"The outside world!"

One good number of balls, one out of bounds.

Kominato Chunichi was chased by two strikes.

Although there are many female spectators in the stands, they still support him unswervingly.

But most of the audience ~lightnovelpub.net~ are not optimistic that he can hit the ball.

April's ball is too heavy.

Thinking about it carefully, apart from the home run and hit by Sawamura Eijun, Qingdo High School can really hit the ball out by hitting, and there are actually very few good hits.

After all, it is just a Wang Xi.

Kuramochi Yoichi's getting to base all relied on his own speed.

Not to mention, Jack April's pitching is very restrained by players like Haruichi Kominato.

The first two goals are the best evidence.

Father, like son.

The audience's eyes are sharp, and what they perceive is not wrong at all.

With Kominato Haruichi's own strength, it is really difficult to hit the ball 100%.

Especially since he used a wooden stick again.

"It's clear that his strength is good, but he is so stubborn. If he is willing to use a metal rod now, the situation will definitely not be so passive."

There was still an indelible regret in Coach Ochiai's eyes.

It's true that Kominabharu City's own ball feel is too good, if this little guy is willing to listen to his own advice.

Qingdao High School's lineup will definitely be better in series.

Just when everyone has lost confidence.

In the strike area, there is still one person who is unwilling to give up.

That person is Kominato Haruichi.

coming!

In the blink of an eye the third ball flew over.

It was also the shot that Jack April threatened to strike out Kominato.

It's just that before his voice fell, he was severely beaten in the face.

The small white ball was hit and flew out.

Although the distance it flew out was not far, it was only seven or eight meters at most, and it rebounded when it landed.

But there is still an opportunity...

A smile finally appeared on Kominato Chunichi's face.
