Chapter two hundred and sixty seventh unwilling
With an 8-0 score, Baishan's supporters think that the game is best to end here as soon as possible, so as to avoid twists and turns in the future.
Supporters of Matsusaka Business hope that the team will regain morale and find a way to recover the score, although they all know that the hope is slim.
This time, it reached the finals. It was the closest opportunity for Matsusaka High School to return to Kaziyuan in more than 60 years. But reality played such a cruel joke with them.
The rest seat lost its noise, and the players sat on the bench with complex expressions.
In the final, they were behind the opponents who had not cared much, but now they didn't know what else they could do. The repeated offensive failures hit the team's morale heavily.
"Oh..." Superintendent Yimura sighed quietly.
Their attacks were stormy throughout the game, but they always had problems in the final connection, and they repeatedly stopped before home base.
Supervisor Ishimura made several tactical adjustments, but the results were not very ideal, and it was probably discovered by Baishan.
Despite this, Supervisor Ishimura still intends to say something, and what confused players need now is clear instructions.
"Try to play the low post."
“Supervised…”
The player from Matsusaka Shopping High School looked up and looked at his own supervisor and felt much more at ease.
In the game, he raised his hand to admit defeat, and the players who finally came to the finals would not be willing to do so. Now with the supervision instructions, even if he didn't know whether it was right or wrong in the end, he had at least a clear idea and direction.
"yes!"
The game entered the sixth inning, and the first was the offense of Baishan High School.
As a substitute pitcher at Matsusaka High School, Yuto Watanabe is at the upper and middle level in the prefecture. The two points lost by the relay in the first half of the five innings were not the responsibility.
Matsusaka Shang's defense has recovered its usual stability, and Yuto Watanabe also gave a good shot performance, suppressing Shiratsuyama's lineup in this game.
"Three out!"
"Off and defense exchange!"
The scores in the first half of the sixth innings did not change. In the second half of the sixth innings, it was Matsusaka Shang High School's turn to attack, and the pioneer was Abe Suk who had four sticks.
Tetsu Nishino attaches great importance to Abesuke and will not change because of his first two games.
The first ball, slide ball, suspended at the inner corner low.
This ball is matched with a bad ball belt, and the right-handed slider is shot into the inner corner of the left hitter.
In an attempt to force Abesuke to retreat near the home plate in a touch ball, laying the foundation for the good ball in the outer corner behind.
The ball was thrown in, and Abesuke was unmoved.
"Bad ball!"
The hitter seemed to be more calm than expected, and Tetsu Nishino simply took the risk of giving him an inside corner kick.
The ball drilled into a corner with a high inner corner, and the 135-kilometer straight ball was determined to be a good ball.
"Huh..." Abesuke puffed up his mouth and exhaled, and he almost couldn't help but make a good shot.
You may be able to beat it with a stick, but no one can tell what has not happened.
Takashi Nishino was not too happy to steal a good ball from the inner corner. It may not be a good thing to use the good ball from the inner corner in advance.
This straight ball in the inner corner has pulled the hitter back, and the next ball is shot into the inner corner, and the chance of being hit is higher.
So Takashi Nishino matched a curve ball with a low outer angle on the third ball, forming a large diagonal ball path with a high inner angle on the previous ball. The left hitter hits the three-game direction and the ideal result.
But Abesuke put the ball over, which was different from what Tetsu Nishino expected him.
The number of balls is 2 bad and 1 good.
For the fourth goal, Tetsu Nishino was equipped with a ball type that Takashi Iwada had never used in official competitions.
Carter Ball.
The right-handed Carter ball is moving toward the inner corner for the left hitter.
Moreover, the speed of the Carter ball is close to that of the straight ball. Since the speed difference is not large, it is difficult for those who hit the ball to distinguish the type of ball. It can be used to match it with the straight ball to achieve the effect of deception.
With this Carter ball, Tetsu Nishino first hopes to squeeze Abesuke's inner corner space and lure him to hit the ground between first and second bases.
Secondly, if Abe Suk chose it, this ball would pave the way for the next straight ball that goes to the outer corner.
But knowing how to hold the ball does not mean knowing how to use it, let alone being used to face the hitter head-on in the game.
The ball Iwada Takashi hit the front of the plate.
Such an obvious bad ball was naturally watched by the hitter throughout the whole process, but only added a bad ball, which was far from what Nishino Tetsuya wanted.
The number of balls reaches 3 and 1 is better, and the hitters have a slight advantage.
At this time, Takashi Nishino could ask for another bad ball and directly lead Abesuke with four sticks, but he refused to do so from the bottom of his heart.
From the spring defeat to the eight-point lead in the final today, what Baishan longed for was a dignified victory.
Even Tetsuo Nishino would not use the "respect forever" tactic unless it was absolutely necessary.
For the fifth goal, Takashi Nishino was equipped with a straight ball with a low outer corner according to his previous idea.
It seems that it is affected by the number of bad balls. Takashi Iwada didn't want to shoot the ball as a bad ball, so he controlled the ball path towards the center of the good ball area.
The straight ball path that enters the base is obviously floating.
"Clang!"
After finally waiting for a low ball that was easy to hit, Abesuke waved his waist as the axis and hit the ball out.
Right field!
The baseball was pulled behind first baseman Arimoto and landed to form a long hit rolling along the right outfield line.
"Ah Sa!"
The four-stick Abesuke scored a goal along the side and hit the second base. The teammates who came up to attack were encouraged and shouted at the pitcher Qiu.
The next stick of Matsusaka High School is Imamiya Hitomiya, who has five sticks. Finally, he caught a slide ball with a low inner corner. Under the squeeze, he still picked the ball into a rolling ball that traveled through the Sanyou.
Fortunately, left fielder Ito Naoki picked up the ball quickly and suppressed Asabe Suk who was intending to rush to home base.
No one was out, there were people at one and three bases.
Matsusaka High School's turn is Seriously Son, Zhuangsi, is still a left-handed hitter.
Takashi Iwata, who is right-handed, does not have the advantage in dealing with left-handed play, and is entangled with 3 bad balls and 2 good balls.
“Change one.”
“Switch another one.”
On the pitcher mound, Takachi Iwada shook his head twice, rejecting the plan to continue attacking the inner corner, and finally reached a consistent match with Tetsu Nishino to use a slide ball to attack the low outer corner.
Takashi Iwada threw the ball over.
The flying baseball is on the last ball path, and the bad ball belt on the outside of the good ball area slides downwards toward the outer corner.
Unfortunately, the vertical displacement is much larger than the horizontal one, and the ball fell on the bad ball belt and failed to slide in.
"Bad ball!"
"Four bad balls!"
"The hitter comes out!"
When he threw four bad balls, Iwada Takashi gritted his teeth and bent his waist. Two high-intensity and high-pressure pitches in two days made his physical strength consume very quickly.
There were bursts of noise in the audience area on the field, and the noise gradually became louder, which meant that the scene that neutral audiences were looking forward to appeared.
In the second half of the sixth inning, Matsusaka Shang's attack was nowhere to be eliminated and the base was full.
Chapter completed!
