Chapter 250 The final begins
The sea breeze blew above the Four Days Market Stadium, sweeping away yesterday's rain and clouds.
The story of Chapter 100 begins with this wet court. The final battle of this summer, which was born from the triple conference, finally begins.
There are 61 high schools in the county, and only the last two teams can come here with the support of their companions.
It is precisely because of the protection of his seniors that Takashi Nishino swung his baton in the attack area. Although his opponent is the most popular candidate for winning in the county, the seniors can still let him enjoy it until the end.
“HAKUSAN!!!”
"Dong--!Dong--!Dong--!"
“NISHINO!!!”
"Dong--!Dong--!Dong--!"
As the game began, the sound of cheering on the stadium was endless, making the entire stadium extremely noisy.
The picture was filled with stands, and the commentator Takayama also said: "The atmosphere in the four-day market stadium is very warm today!"
"Yes, it's like being on the scene, the atmosphere is really warm!" Shunsuke Watanabe was also amazed at the atmosphere of the stadium.
"It's not just the support stands, but the audience from the field grass to the blocking area has been connected, and the game will probably become very intense!"
"So! Will the top of School 61 be Shiratsuyama or Matsusaka Shopping?!"
On the stage of the finals, can Baishan High School go to the top? With this question, it is not just the audience on site.
At this time in Baishan Town, Tianjin, there were no pedestrians on the narrow streets. All residents gathered at Baishan Cultural Comprehensive Center in Tianjin, and they slapped the flags and support fans in their hands, and watched the live broadcast on the big screen with concentration.
The first goal of the final.
call out!
On the pitcher mound, Yoshikawa, the starting pitcher of Matsusaka Shin-saka, swung his arm. Just as he was about to release the ball, Tetsu Nishino, who was standing in the attack area, suddenly lowered his waist and swung the bat over.
"Touch short?!"
Abe, who was squatting behind, was startled and thought Takashi Nishino was going to hit the base through a short shot, but the ball had already been thrown, so he could only pray that Takashi Nishino was bluffing.
"Bang!"
When the ball entered the base, Tetsu Nishino put away the bat back and did not really click it out.
Because this is a straight ball in the center of the good ball area, it is considered a good ball count, but the catcher Abe who got the good ball count cannot understand what Tetsu Nishino wants to do.
Originally, he wanted an inside corner kick in this ball, but the pitcher Yoshikawa had a slight deviation in the control of the ball and shot more correctly. It was not surprising that he was really hit.
However, Takashi Nishino, who was posing in a short strike, did not take action, neither clicked out nor used the tactic of "fake touch and real attack".
"What the hell are you doing?"
Matsusaka Shonen Catcher Abe muttered in his heart, and stood up and passed the ball back to the pitcher.
Before the game, Matsusaka High School studied the game of Shirata, so naturally they knew that Shirata was very threatening players, among which the first-year pioneer Tetsu Nishino was the one who feared them the most.
The players with a 80% chance of playing at the county conference are definitely geniuses at the monster level.
After the battle in spring, they still had the impression of Baishan. In their eyes, Tetsu Nishino, who had always insisted on it, had excellent fighting spirit and talent.
But I didn't expect that this summer, the first-year Tetsu Nishino performed so amazingly, just like the legendary monsters, and made a splash.
In terms of overall strength, Matsusaka Shang is above Baishan, but if you have more personal performance, no one in Mie Prefecture can compare to Nishino Tetsuki.
Tetsu Nishino, who was in the first place, made all opponents very uncomfortable.
The most important thing in the school is that the vanguard is fast, and the beat rate will not be too high. However, Baishan's beat is a bit too much. Not only is the fast pace, but the beat rate is also very high.
As long as Bai Shan's bat is successfully promoted, the probability of losing points will be greatly increased. Many teams are broken by Bai Shan because of this, Matsusaka Shang will naturally focus on this tactic.
But they didn't expect that Nishino Tetsuya would be short-shot when he came up.
After thinking about it carefully, Takashi Nishino, who had a very fast footwork, did have the ability to hit the base in a short time. Matsusaka Shang's catcher Abe couldn't help but hesitate when he thought of this.
"I won't really have to play short-term, right... I can only defend myself."
In order to win the elimination of Takashi Nishino, Matsusaka Shang's garrison had made a special adjustment, but facing the threat of being hit by a short bat, they had to change the formation again, and the infielder defended further forward.
Seeing Matsusaka Shang's appearance as if he was facing a great enemy, Takashi Nishino raised his bat in silence and immediately figured out his opponent's ideas.
"Just pretending they believed it. It seems that they really don't want me to go to the base. Being boasted as a genius has such benefits."
Tetsu Nishino's first ball was a short-shot posture, which was actually to disrupt the opponent's pitch. How could he really have to play short-shot under strict defense?
The next second and third goals, Matsusaka Shoku carefully used the edge change ball to fish Nishino Tetsuya to hit the ball, but they were both seen through and used 2 bad balls.
The number of balls is 2 bad and 1 good.
Two consecutive bad balls were selected by the hitter. Matsusaka Shang's catcher Abe realized that using a simple bad ball to deal with Tetsu Nishino was not very effective.
So for the next goal, he chose to face the head-on and matched a straight ball in the good ball area. The pitcher Yoshikawa made a very good shot and used a 140km/h outer corner straight ball to make Tetsu Nishino swing missed.
The beautiful straight shot from pitcher Yoshikawa, Nishino Tetsuki swung too early and did not hit the ball at all, and he swung it hard.
"2 bad and 2 good, very good, I'll chase the hitter first." Catcher Abe's confidence in taking down Tetsu Nishino was greatly increased.
Even a player with a high playing rate cannot make a hit every time he swings. In the game of a high school student, talented players who are far beyond his peers will also be struck out.
"The next goal, just take him down!"
"Um!"
Matsusaka Shang's arrest of the two people quickly decided on the next goal.
2 bad 2 good ball counts, usually the hitter will easily be solved by them, so they choose to attack strongly for the next ball, and put all their strength in an inside corner kick.
call out!
The ball was thrown.
The ball that came quickly was the best pitching quality given by Matsusaka Shang since the opening. Not only did the ball road press on the inside edge of the good ball area, but the speed also reached 142km/h close to the peak of pitcher Yoshikawa.
However, this was all within expectations of Tetsu Nishino.
"Clang!"
The baseball that flew in was hit by a stick. Takashi Nishino did not fully exert his strength, but just hit the gap in the defense of Matsusaka Jun's internal and external fields, forming a steady first base hit.
The ball landed in front of the middle and outfield. Takashi Nishino quickly ran to first base. Seeing Matsusaka Shang's backbone pick up the ball, he stopped.
"I was still beaten..."
When the ball was hit, Matsusaka Shang's catcher Yukawa saw the metal bat being quietly held short, and he had a premonition that their efforts to spend 5 goals would be wasted.
Chapter completed!
