The original intention of the diamond ace

Four sticks Itou Osamu greeted calmly and stepped into the strike zone.

He first stroked the ground with his right foot left and right to repair it, then stepped on it hard, and stared at me closely after setting up his posture.

Is this four sticks quite a posture?

But why is he a small man again, wouldn't the four sticks also make strange moves?I thought helplessly.

'Let's test the first ball first. Miyuki is also wary of this little guy, Shibao.

... "The sixth ball!"

"Bang!"

"The outside world!"

"Three foul balls in a row! Fa Jian's four sticks have been entangled with the pitcher for six balls!"

"The seventh ball!"

"Bang!"

"Snapped!"

"Aha!"

"out!"

"Offensive and defensive exchange!!"

"Senior Kuramochi! Good job!" I happily waved to Senior Cheetah behind me.

He smiled arrogantly at me, "Oda, you cast well too!"

After returning to the players' bench, I took a towel and sat on a chair, wiping off my sweat while watching the Fakan players who had just run into the field.

That four-stick is quite powerful, and the technique is not bad.

But it's easier to deal with than that strange stick.

In the second half of the round, it was Qingdao's turn to attack.

Kuramochi-senpai walked lazily to the strike zone, "It's too embarrassing that our elementary school boy has performed so well, but as a senior, he didn't perform at all." '

He stared at the flying ball and swung his bat vigorously, "I'll take this ball!" '

"Pong!" The ball quickly passed by the third base and flew towards left field.

Kuramochi quickly hit the bases.

"Snapped!"

After a crisp sound, Kuramochi looked at Yoshioka strangely, "When was that shortstop? I remember when he was swinging, he was clearly near second base?"I don't remember his speed being that fast.It's a pity that my ball, if it can land, I probably can go to second base. '

Kuramochi shook his head regretfully and returned to the bench area.

Haruichi, who was the next bat, looked warily at the shortstop who was casually talking to the third baseman.

'really!When I watched the video, I was a little skeptical. The shortstop's prediction was really good! '

’ Almost at the same time Kuramochi-senpai was swinging, he started running to third base and caught the ball just in time. '

'Looks like we're going to avoid that shortstop a little bit—'

"Bang!"

"Snapped!"

Chunshi pursed his lips, "I cared too much about that shortstop, and ended up being caught by that second baseman." '

I sat on the chair, and the hand that was just about to pick up the water stopped.

That little guy with four sticks really isn't the only one who hits hard.

It was kind of weird seeing him at second base at first, no wonder.

Although Yoshioka's prediction like a beast is very good, he is actually in charge of the defense of the two bats. He not only adjusts the defense in time and accurately, but also makes good use of shortstops to complement his speed.

Hakushu-senior from behind hit a high fly ball in the outfield, and neither side scored in this round.

In the second game, the fifth shot caused me a little trouble. I entangled with him for five goals, and finally blocked him with the help of defense.

Except for the five bats, the back hitters swung boldly but without skill, allowing Miyuki to grasp their weaknesses and directly let them hit high fly balls to catch out.

I wiped the sweat from my forehead, turned around, smiled and went back with the people around me.

The commentator Sato said a little excitedly: "The same three ups and three downs! Qingdou's pitcher was not to be outdone, and quickly ended the offense and defense of this inning!"

in the stands.

Reporter Mine Fujio nodded, "The first-year starters of the two teams performed very well, and there is no common mentality problem."

Akiko Owada said excitedly: "Seidou already has two such good second-year pitchers, yet there is still such a good pitcher going to Qingdao."

"The most important thing is, he should be of mixed race! And that somewhat arrogant look! That look is awesome! Hahaha~"

Second half.

"Pong!"

"A home run! Qing Dao goes first!"

Miyuki started to run with a smile, "It's so cool~"

ah ah!As expected of the captain and four batters, he just reminded him to pay attention to the shortstop and second baseman, and he just hit a home run.Forget it if you don't remind him next time!I thought indignantly.

"Miyuki, you guy is too much!"

"Oh! Captain Cannon is here!"

…………

Front Garden steps into the strike zone, glaring at the pitcher menacingly.

He swung so hard that the ball landed just before third base, quickly missed the third baseman's glove, and rolled back.

At this time, Qianyuan rushed to the first base, "safe!" 'I also want to hit a home run handsomely! '

But he still raised his right hand excitedly.

"Give me the armor quickly."

"Oh!"

"What's the excitement about that five-bat, it's just a grounder."

"Hahaha, Qingdao's hitters are fun too, that base slam is really bad!"

"Why does it feel like he hit a home run, he is so happy."

…………

"In the second round, Qingdao's attack started with a spring shot from the general, and Qingdao's line-up broke out. This round directly scored four points. In the end, he barely got three outs by relying on defense, and ended the round. garrison."

In the stands, a group of young people took advantage of the gap between offense and defense to discuss the offense and defense just now.

"Why did Fajian suddenly collapse in this round? Didn't the last round still go up and down?" A young man asked his companion next to him strangely.

The companion rubbed his chin, "In fact, the last inning was basically defended. But if the four-bat home run in the second inning did not affect the pitcher's mentality, he would not have lost so many points, and he could have scored more. Hold on for a few rounds."

The girl who was together said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you all look like you're doomed now? This is only the second game. Four points is a bit much, but it's not a point difference that can't be recovered."

Another girl explained kindly: "The main reason is that the first grade is still voting. This round is probably just to train him. Although it is a bit risky to start directly, but no matter how you say it, he won't lose it." Too many points. If you don’t knock him down early and replace him with an ace, it will be even more difficult to catch up.”

The boy continued, "Yes! And the four points are based on the fact that their pitchers no longer drop points. Although it is said to be a third grade, it seems to be the first time to participate in the game."

The girl nodded, "No wonder the performance is so different before and after!"

…………

The discussion in the audience did not affect the movement of the game at all.

Against eight and nine bats, I took them out with just the fastball.

It's the turn of that one stick Yoshioka again.

I looked at the man who seemed to be walking up with some sadness.

Intuition like a beast? What a special ability. Hitters like this are hard to strike out.

Yoshioka and Miyuki greeted each other, "Please give me your advice."

"You are so strong, we will be in trouble if we don't score again!"

Miyuki smiled at him.

The referee warned him, "Get ready!"

"Sorry, sorry."

"First goal!"

This hitter does have the possibility of becoming a powerful hitter, and his unique prediction is really enviable.

It's a pity he hasn't grown up yet.It might be trickier in the future, but for now.

Even if he guesses my ball path, so what, the end will be the end!

... "The fourth ball!"

"Bang!"

"Snapped!"

"out!"

"Oh—this is it! Killer Curve!!"

I turned and walked down the mound.

Hearing Sawamura-senpai's words, he staggered accidentally.

What is a killer curveball? Is my ball control okay?I originally wanted to have a cool ending, but now it's gone, senior!

The discussion in the stands suddenly became louder.

"Oh—what's that ball!"

"Look at the way it changes, should it? Curveball?!"

"How could it be just a curveball! Where did the curveball change so much!"

"Wow! No matter what the changing ball is, the way of changing, the timing of changing, the speed of the ball, this first grade is too exaggerated!"

…………

Back in the rest area, everyone surrounded me and patted my shoulders and rubbed my head.

"Good job!"

"Good shot."

"Let's see what the senior says next!"

…………

"Aim and shoot~"

Miyuki looked at the pitcher coldly.

"Steal the base!"

"Pong!"

"No! Hit and run!"

Second baseman Yi Tang jumped up, trying to catch the ball, but the ball flew higher than he expected, and it flew over his glove.Yoshioka made a desperate run from behind, but it was too late, and the ball flew deep into right field.

Yi Tang glanced at the flying ball, pressed down the brim of his hat to cover his eyes.

Yoshioka who was standing behind him looked at him silently, "Senior Yitang......"

"Three bats Hakushu ran home in one breath! Seventh score!"

"The lead's well-timed double hit pushed Hokken Gakuen to the brink!"

"Oh! Fa Kan Gakuen finally decided to replace the starting lineup at this time, and now No. 12 Miura is playing."

"Pong!"

"Oh! That's a long shot! Five-bat front yard hits another double in time, eighth run!"

"It's a pity that the new Miura didn't cut off Aomichi's offensive. If the opponent's morale is not interrupted, the possibility of ending the game early is very high."

In the next game, the supervisor sent Shang Yucheng to guard the left field.

The opponents in this round became impatient, but they still insisted on their attacking style.

Since the last round, the number of balls I used to deal with the batter has increased significantly, and my breathing has become heavier.

Hit a smooth and turn back to the fourth bat.

Yitang walked up to the strike area calmly, tidied up the soil in the strike area, stepped on it twice, stood still, and stared at me closely.

Oh ~ this momentum!

Sure enough, the most exciting time is when you face off against an evenly matched opponent! !

'Hey, why are you being influenced by your opponent? Miyuki looked at me helplessly, "Sure enough—the pitchers are all the same creature." '

'Then come on!This ball is about to hit the target! '

I saw the code clearly, hahaha, is the first ball so tough?

The opponent has the momentum to hit my ball.

But your matchmaking really makes people full of fighting spirit!

…………

"The tenth ball!"

"Bang!"

"Snapped!"

"out!"

I let out a long breath, turned and walked towards the rest area.
