Chapter 371: The 100th Summer Miracle
afternoon.
Hanshin Kaziyuan Stadium.
The fourth game of this conference on the 14th day, the semi-finals, Jinzunong vs. Omi.
There are only two public schools in the quarterfinals, one of which is Kinzuno High School from Akita Prefecture, and the other is Shiratsuyama High School.
Two public high schools that entered the quarterfinals have caused a big boom, not only because they are rural teams in weak areas, but also because both teams have cricketers.
Yoshida Hiroseki, who is carrying No. 1, is the absolute ace pitcher at Kinzuno High School.
Starting from the local conference, Yoshida Hiroshi finished all the games, and he was the only pitcher who finished every game in this year's Jiaziyuan.
It can be said that Yoshida Hiroseki entered the quarterfinals with Kim Soo-Nong, perfectly interpreting the personal heroism of high school baseball. Therefore, the tone given by the media before the game was "Akita Monsters played strongly against Ome".
Baishan reached the semi-finals in the second game in the morning. People who are familiar with Omi team do not want to show weakness, and are determined to enter the semi-finals.
After the game started, Kinzuno and Oe each scored 1 point, and the first 5 games were tied 1-1.
The sixth round.
Omi High School was in the third base when there was someone in Kitamura Eigo Kitamura, a strong hit who scored 11 RBIs at this conference.
Kitamura Keigo lived up to his expectations and knocked out a timely hit during the three tours.
Omi 2 to 1 Golden Foot Farmer.
Despite the difficulty of pitching, Yoshida Hiroshi still made the ninth inning, striking out the final hitter and defending the score of 1-2.
Yoshida Hiroseki used his 140th goal hot shot to defend the 1-point difference.
The game entered the second half of the nine innings, and Jinzunong High School's last offensive half of the inning.
In this last half of the game, the atmosphere in Jiaziyuan changed. After experiencing a big reversal in the morning, the audience cheered for the lagging Jinzunong again with anticipation.
The players of Omi High School were clearly affected by the atmosphere of the court.
The most stressed one is Omi sophomore pitcher Lin Yuki on the pitcher mound.
First, the first six-ball player Yusuke Takahashi hit a first base and then hit the base with a seven-ball player Kikuji Biaogo knocked out of the left field and landed and hit the ground.
No one was out, there were people at first and second bases.
In this case, the situation will likely get worse and worse.
Lin Youshu lost the ball possession he relied on for survival at the most important moment.
When the four bad balls appeared, the audience in the Jiaziyuan stands applauded and excitedly knew that the game was about to decide the outcome.
No one was out of the box.
1 point difference.
"when!"
The ball was pointed in the infield, Jinzunong hit and forced the score, and the runner at the third base rushed back and rushed over the home plate.
“Forced points!”
"It's divided equally!"
The most shocking scenes in the audience followed one after another.
I saw Kikuji Biaogo, who was originally in the second base, stepped on the third base, and stumbled towards the home base despite the gesture of his teammate's finger.
When the next runner rushed over, Ome catcher Arima Ryo was shocked and immediately realized that his instructions to pass the ball to the first base might cause no time to return.
"home base!"
Arima Liang stood in front of the plate, anxiously opened his gloves, waiting for the ball to come back.
However, Kikuto Byogo pounced firmly and slid under Arimara's arm.
“Safe!!!!!!!!!”
"Goodbye!!!!!!!!"
"Kinzuo Nong 3 to 2 Omi!!!"
The fierce game came to an abrupt end at this moment. Jinzuon High School finally defeated Omi by 1 point and won again by winning by 1 point.
...
After that, all the matches on the 14th day of the conference ended, and the semi-finals in the 100th chapter have been decided.
Kita Osaka representative, Osaka Kiriyuki.
Three representatives, Baishan.
Ehime, Jimi.
Akita represents, Jinzuo Farmer.
The semi-finals will be drawn again, and the captain of the winning side will draw the corresponding game after the game ends, and the match schedule for the semi-finals on the day of the game will come out.
The fifteenth day of the conference, the semi-finals.
The first game, Osaka Kirime VS Shiratsuyama.
The second game, Jimei VS Jinzunong.
There is a day of cultivation between the semi-finals and the semi-finals, so the 15th day's competition will be held the day after tomorrow, followed by two consecutive days of completion of the semi-finals and finals.
The Jiaziyuan Stadium was already empty at night, but the craze caused here continued during the day.
Baishan and Jinzunong, two teams that were considered to be defeated in the first game before the start of the Jiaziyuan game, actually passed the hurdles and entered the final four.
Among the four schools left behind, there are two private and public.
Osaka Kirie and Jimi are private baseball champions. They both won the Summer Kokoto and made it reasonable to reach the semi-finals.
However, it was surprising that two public schools, Baishan and Jinzunong, reached the semi-finals.
In recent years, the top strength of public schools has lagged behind private schools. In the quarterfinals or semifinals, there are either one or two public schools or there are no one.
Akita Prefecture and Mie Prefecture are both in relatively weak places. The history of prefecture Kakoyuan is average, and the teams that come out generally cannot play for a few rounds.
It was under such a disadvantage that Bai Shan and Jin Zunong both reversed their opponents in the second half of the nine games and staged a script of defeating the strong with the weak.
Tens of millions of baseball fans across Japan were in full swing.
"Episode 100th Miracle of Summer!"
One game of reversal and one game of full base, one game of reversal and two points of strike, two shocking games made the victory of Osaka Kirie and Jimi slightly dim.
People were deeply immersed in two finals and marveled at the excitement of high school baseball.
The competition on this day sparked even more heated discussions, so that the submission calls from Takano Groups of various TV stations were overwhelmed.
evening.
Baishan High School stayed in a hotel.
“Um…”
Takashi Nishino hesitated with his cell phone, wondering if he would use Line to send some comfort words to Omi High School seniors Arima Ryo and Lin Yushu.
"It's better not to be comforted. If it were me, I shouldn't want to be comforted for the time being..."
If Takashi Nishino, who was defeated, would comfort Arima Ryo and Lin Yushu who were reversed, they would probably be even more sad.
Just now, when the live broadcast ended, Takashi Nishino saw Lin Youshu on the pitcher mound for the first time, and also saw Arima Ryo who fell to the ground and cried for the first time.
When Omi was digging in the third grade, Ama Liang and Lin Yushu cried behind him.
Seeing this scene, Tetsu Nishino was a little subtle. Although he was very sorry for Oe, if Shiratsuyama lost, he might not be so sad.
Baishan is already a dark horse if he can play in Jiaziyuan. Now, winning one more game less will not affect people's love for them.
In every game in Jiaziyuan, except for the first game when playing Aigong Daming Dian, Baishan has a good mentality in other games.
With this mentality, Baishan has less pressure from non-competitive factors, and even if he falls behind, he maintains a high degree of concentration.
Beep!
After receiving a Line message, Takashi Nishino opened it and took a look.
-Azhe, it's time to eat.-
"That guy Kazuya is too lazy, he doesn't want to come up after a few steps." Takashi Nishino thought helplessly.
Chapter completed!
