"At the last moment of the ninth inning, the king Daocheng Industry, who had been pressed hard, finally tied the score----, will this be the only overtime game in this competition? The winner is the one who has not entered the Jiazi for five years Qingdao High School in the park or Daocheng Industry, the summer tyrant?"

Everyone has been playing under the hot sun for nearly three hours, and it would be a lie not to say that they are tired.Seeing that the victory is imminent, the score was tied in the last half of the game, overtime... Could it be that the Goddess of Victory has smiled at Dao Shi and the others?On the field, there was a sense of despair in my heart.Compared to the jubilation in Daoshi's rest area, the atmosphere on Qingdao seems to have been frozen.

[How could it be like this...] Kawakami's pupils were a little dizzy, as if he didn't understand that he would be tied when he was still leading by 2 points.

"Referee, pitcher swap"

Director Kataoka who walked out of the rest area attracted everyone's attention.

[What, pitcher exchange? 】

Everyone in Daocheng Industry was as dumbfounded as the audience in the stands.

"What's the situation? Is there any pitcher in Qingdao?"

"What are you paying attention to?"

"Seidou High School's defensive change notice, left fielder Sato is the pitcher, and Itai, who just entered the field, is the left fielder."

Cheng Gongming looked at the blond boy walking towards the mound, his pupils shrank suddenly.

"Why is that kid still able to be a pitcher?" Ji Ze was so surprised that his eyeballs almost popped out.

"Oh, that kid..." Karl Rose's lips curved slightly.

Supervisor Guoyou turned his neck calmly.

"I have a bad feeling, that brat is trouble." Bai He was sitting in the rest area receiving treatment because of the touch ball just now, his face was still gloomy as usual.

Miyuki lifted his mask and ran towards Ryoma on the mound, "Are you nervous? It's your first appearance in the finals."

Liang Zhen looked at his catcher, who was sweating profusely, but his eyes were still bright and energetic, and the corners of his lips curled up, "Why, I'm nervous." He clenched the baseball in his hand, and looked directly at Miyuki, "This is what I have always been. something to look forward to."

"The situation is not good. With two outs, there are still runners on the base." Miyuki patted Ryoma's chest with his glove, "If it was yours, I would definitely be able to do it, right?"

【Although you are facing a situation that is about to be reversed, such a scene is really exciting. Come on, now you are standing in this position just to shock everyone. 】

Miyuki also opened his gloves and squatted down.

"A high-profile first pitch, a freshman with excellent strike power and almost perfect defense, does he have amazing pitching?"

Yamaoka Riku, who was on the sixth bat, held the bat tightly, 【If you have the ability, try to throw. My hits will not lose to a half-baked pitcher like you. 】

"boom---"

The white arrow-like trail from the mound quickly drilled into the catcher's glove at home plate, making a somewhat frightening muffled sound.

"bad...bad ball"

"Wow---"

The audience was in an uproar, and the spectators in the auditorium burst into a burst of exclamation.

"What's the situation, Qingdao still has a monster that exists beyond Jianggu?"

"By the way, is that really a ball thrown by a human? How fast is it? It must be over 150."

Miyuki glanced at Yoshizawa, who was sweating a little from his forehead, and smiled sardonicly on the face under the mask.

[The daily batting practice makes the speed of the ball seem to be faster than the first time. If I stand on the batting bench at this time, I am afraid that I will be shocked. 】

Then the high-profile second ball was still a bad ball.

[Too bad, Sato's shoulders haven't fully warmed up yet. Although the ball is sharp, it can't get into the strike zone at all. 】

Miyuki at the home base frowned, and gave a secret signal to Liang Zhen.

[What, throw a check ball to first base? 】

Liangzhen on the pitcher's mound instantly turned around and threw a pinch ball to first base. Cheng Gongming was stunned and quickly returned to base.

"safe"

"safe"

He threw two consecutive checkpoints to first base.The noise in the auditorium gradually grew louder.

【Damn it, did that brat do it on purpose?Why do you keep throwing the ball to this side and hit my ball continuously, I should be angry, okay, how can I stop! ! 】

It was as if blue fireworks were ignited in Cheng Gongming's eyes, staring at the back of the blond boy on the mound.

"What's going on, isn't the runner very far from first base?"

"Inaoshi's first base runner has no intention of stealing bases at all, and in the case of two outs, it is impossible to risk sending the opponent one out for nothing."

"Even if the anti-theft base throws to second base, why is it always in the direction of first base?"

"What happened to that pitcher?"

The 5 consecutive balls were all continued to restrain the ball, and gradually someone shouted in the rest area of ​​Daocheng Industry.

"Hey, kid, get down if you don't want to throw the ball!"

"Afraid of becoming like this, what else to vote for"

Minister Ota panicked, "Supervisor..."

"Don't worry, Sato's shoulders are starting to heat up."

Everyone in the rest area looked at the calm Supervisor Kataoka in a daze.

"The pinning the ball just now was a secret signal from Miyuki," Chris smiled while holding the scorecard, "It's like passing and catching the ball. It's to warm up Sato's shoulders quickly."

"Eh?"

[It's almost the same, let him vote for this first. 】

Miyuki gave a signal to Ryoma and squatted down at the home plate.

Liang Zhen took a deep breath, staring closely at the yellow catcher's mitts that were open to him.The image of Yuuki-senpai swinging his bat, Isashiki-senpai's roar, Masuko-senpai and Itai-senpai's tolerant smiles flashed in my mind, whether it was Kominato-senpai who ended up on his own due to injury or was hit by a home run. The Tanba-senpai who has always played but maintained the ace demeanor...or Miyuki Kazuya who opened the glove to him in front of him without the appearance of a senior.

[The moment you give me the signal is to believe what I mean, right?There must be no ball possession errors, everyone's expectations, I want to respond!I don't know what kind of place Jiashien is, but I must go with these people now. 】

Lifting his foot, he swung his left arm out quickly while taking a step, and the thrown baseball was like a projected missile, rushing towards his face with a turbulent momentum.

"boom--"

"nice shot"

"Wow---"

"That kid doesn't cover the ball well, but his ball control doesn't seem to be very good."

"But that kind of ball speed, I'm afraid it's hard for even Daoshi to hit it."

The members of the first and second armies in the Qingdao stand shouted desperately, and their momentum was boosted by a good shot just now.

[Damn, what is this, this kind of throwing that goes beyond common sense? Is this guy really just a first-year student?It's a monster better than Jianggu, not to mention hitting, it can't catch the ball at all. 】

Narimiya Naruto leaned over and looked condescendingly, 【That brat only has the speed of the ball, and his ball control ability is still very early. I guess it's just cultivated for a few rounds. It won't last long. Senior Yoshizawa's expression is too exaggerated. How can you hit the ball without swinging the bat. 】

Harada at second base turned his head and glanced at his supervisor in the rest area. Supervisor Kunitomo gave a signal to Narimiya Naruto Harada who was looking at him.

Liang Zhen on the pitcher's mound suddenly heard the voice of his captain and the voice of second base Kominato Ryosuke at the same time.

"Steal the base!!"

[What, a stolen base with two outs. 】

At the moment when Ryoma threw the ball, he stole both bases at the same time. When Miyuki wanted to throw the ball at the moment of receiving the ball, the runner was already at the second and third bases.

"Successful steal! At the last moment of the two outs, Daoshi's pitching combination stole second and third bases at the same time, will it be reversed? Will it be?"

Miyuki, who was still maintaining his pitching action, was also shocked. He didn't expect Inami to steal a double base at this time.

[Calm down, calm down, with one inning short, the runner has reached third base, and the current ball count is two good and two bad.Even Harada, who is third base with a fly ball, will rush forward with all his might. 】

Next, Ryoma's balls kept being thrown out of bounds.

[Damn it, it's still difficult to grasp the timing as always, but I won't give up just like that. How could I give up when there is someone on third base. 】

Both Suzuma on the mound and Yoshizawa at the strike began to pant.

"Dao Shi is really tenacious. This is the first ball, and it has been hit out of bounds."

"Forgive me, Qingdao is the last one out of the game, that's the one who won't come down..."

"It's good if you can barely touch that kind of high-speed ball, and it's almost impossible to hit it completely."

[It's really annoying, the only way to make this hitter miss is to throw the ball. 】

Miyuki also sent a certain signal to Ryoma.

[What, you want me to shoot that ball, and it's still the final. 】

Shocked, Ryoko frowned.

[Is that kind of unfinished ball really okay? 】

Miyuki grinned, 【I can't help it, whether you laugh or cry, just treat it as the last ball. 】

"Attack, Sato."

"Attack, Sato-chan, I will definitely catch it."

【Everyone’s voice can be heard, with such a team, I feel like I can’t lose...】

Yoshizawa's line of sight came into view when the ball was thrown towards the home plate.

【Come on, what kind of ball will it be? In the strike zone, I must hit it. 】

While swinging the bat, the white ball fell quickly, and the feeling of swinging in the air came, and Yoshizawa felt a moment of despair.

"Run, the catcher is caught!"

【What? ? 】

Harada, who was on third base, started quickly, and Miyuki grabbed the baseball that leaked behind home plate. At this time, Harada had already run halfway.

"Pass it to me quickly."

Ryoma, who had already made up for the home plate, showed a frightened expression, and the gloves on his hands had grown out.

"Whoosh-"

When Liang Zhen received the ball, he felt a huge impact from the side of his body.

The sky was full of dust, and the huge dust raised from the home plate covered the figures of the two people who collided together.

Everyone in the stands and rest area stood up, holding their breath.

Suzuma's hat at the home plate fell to the ground, and he lay on the ground hunched over, the small white ball in the glove fell down lightly with a clatter.

"Safe, the game is over."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, I finally won, I won!"

Liang Zhen, who lay on the ground and slowly sat up, looked at all the players of Daocheng Industry who were hugging with his teammates not far away, and lowered his eyes slightly.

"Get up, go to line up."

Ryoma slowly took Miyuki's hand and stood up.

【Seniors' summer is over...】
