Chapter 126 The second game
Morning, July 17.
The second round of the White Mountain High School baseball department will start at 10 a.m. shortly after.
After breakfast, Totoshi took the players to the court of the game.
Tianjin Municipal Stadium.
Three days ago, Baishan High School just won the first summer win at this stadium.
Today they returned here and fought for the team's second victory.
Before coming in the morning, Supervisor Totaoshi read the analysis report of Takashi Nishino and others and announced the first-mover list.
Tetsuya Nishino and Shuoya Yamamoto formed a group of attacks and arrests.
First-year pitcher Kazuya Nishino is ready to make a substitute to shoot at the bench at any time in the bullpen.
The team's garage problem is much more serious than the pitcher's problem.
Considering this, Toshitaoji did not easily change the match of the infielder. No. 2 pitcher Takachi Iwada continues to be the infielder and does not have to pitch on the court for the time being.
In the stadium, the two teams were warming up on the field.
Gradually, time was approaching, and some spectators entered the court one after another, and the stadium gradually became noisy.
With the sound of "tick" footsteps, more and more spectators gathered on the court.
Hundreds of supporters came to Baishan High School, most of whom were the players’ parents and members of the musical troupe.
As for Ueno High School, because it was not in the stadium in the area, there were fewer supporters coming to Tianjin than Shiratsu, but there were more than 100 people.
Ueno High School also organized a small-scale blowing department where it tuned the instrument.
There are hundreds of other people who are nearby citizens. Today is the second round of the Third Session. They also pay attention to high school baseball from time to time, so they come to watch the game if they have time.
There were almost five or six hundred people sitting in the entire stadium, and the number seemed to be a little more than the one that happened three days ago.
In two consecutive games, Baishan High School has a slight advantage in its momentum.
Most local audiences tend to support Baishan, and many even happened to watch Baishan competition three days ago and had a deep impression of their performance.
"I said, which team do you think of in this game?"
"It's almost the same. Both teams are quite average and have no characteristics."
"Ha, then you're wrong. I think Baishan High School has a higher chance of winning."
"Why, do you know them?"
"Well, I don't know much. It's just that last time I happened to watch the Baishan competition, and there was a first-year catcher in Baishan who impressed me deeply."
"First-grade catcher? Bai Shan dares to let the first-grade catcher come on the court?"
"You dare to play the performance of a three-point home run and four blocking and killing thieves in a single game."
"No, that's so strong!"
"Of course, it's good to see it later, and it will definitely surprise you..."
The players warm up on the court by passing and receiving.
Tetsu Nishino found that many viewers looked inexplicably in their direction, and seemed to be discussing something on their lips.
"Why is this happening?" Takashi Nishino felt a little strange.
Logically speaking, there is no TV broadcast in Baishan's competition, so there shouldn't be many people paying attention to them, but many of the audience know about them Baishan High School.
"What's wrong, Xiaozhe?"
After Yamamoto Shuoya warmed up, he walked down. He was curious about how Tetsu Nishino looked at the audience thinking.
"Senior Yamamoto, there are many people who are not Shirayama Town who are also following us."
"You care about this." Yamamoto Shuoya smiled.
"This is the charm of baseball. Even if we have always been unknown before, as long as we show our strength, we can get the attention of many people."
"You know that many people just like to watch high school baseball."
"And Xiaozhe, you performed so well, you must have attracted a lot of attention."
"Senior, how could I attract so many attentions from the catcher who can't even see a face? Everyone must be watching the pitcher?"
Tetsu Nishino quickly denied it.
No matter how the catcher performs, he is only the darkest star in the team.
Yamamoto Shuoya didn't say anything, but just showed a knowing smile.
The time for warm-up passed quickly.
It was nearly 10 o'clock in the morning.
"spread--------"
At the signing of the referee team, the players of the two teams rushed from both sides to the home plate area, lowered their heads and bowed face to face, and shouted in unison.
"Please give me some advice!"
Then Baishan's players immediately ran to the defensive position and passed the ball with their teammates.
The first attack in this game was Ueno High School.
Before the game officially started, Tetsuo Nishino and the fielders conducted several anti-theft base drills.
"Bang!"
Tetsu Nishino received the ball and stood up and passed it to the shortstop running towards second base.
At the rest seat next to you, people from Ueno High School can also see this drill, and they all set their sights on the field.
"What a quick pass!"
"Not slower than our catcher."
"It seems that their last four blockings were real."
"Uh... Baishan's arrest was not warning us, right?"
"Then they are too arrogant!"
Tetsuo Nishino didn't really warn Ueno High School about stealing the base. He just tried to practice a few more times in the atmosphere of the court.
Of course, Ueno High School had a misunderstanding and did not dare to steal a base in the game, and Tetsu Nishino would not mind.
Being alert to stealing the thieves is really annoying.
"Senior Yamamoto, good ball!"
Tetsuya Nishino and Shiroya Yamamoto make a few passes and catches, and the game will officially begin.
9:59 am.
“PalyBall!”
The referee Itochu made a gesture to start pitching.
As the referee's actions were made, the air defense alarm sounded in time, announcing the official start of the game.
"Buzz—Buzz—Buzz—Buzz”
The 100th National Colleges and Universities Wildball Players' Rights Third Conference, Ueno VS Shirashan.
The competition begins!
First ball.
Tetsu Nishino made a slide ball in the center of the good ball area.
It's a bit risky, but you can usually get a good ball before taking the hitter when he is not prepared.
Yamamoto Shuoya nodded, with a very calm expression on his face and his arms swung.
Baseball is coming to the home zone!
Sudden!
Ueno's bat was swung over and he was about to strike!
The first ball hits?!!!
The hitter closed the bat back as the ball entered the base and watched the ball.
"Bang!"
With a comfortable touch and pleasant sound, Takashi Nishino's arm gently stretched forward to catch the ball, but he became confused inside.
Ueno's bat just swayed the bat, but in the end he didn't click it out.
"nice shot!"
The presiding judge then clenched his arm and raised his fist and made a good ball.
1 good ball.
"Uh-huh!"
Ueno turned his head and looked at his supervisor. After receiving the instructions, he nodded and understood.
In the rest seat, Ueno's supervisor was expressionless.
The fake attack just now was a deception tactic of theirs, with the purpose of making the Baishan Catcher leave an impression.
They may have to hit the base!
If Baishan's arrest is really disturbed, it is the best result. If Baishan's arrest doesn't care, they will only pay a good number of balls.
A pitcher with slow ball speed is not easy to prevent attacks.
Chapter completed!
