Shortstop Xiaoyuan Haidou pressed the ball-catching gloves on runner Jin Dahan who was sliding onto the base bag.

Second Lelei Luen clenched his fist with his right hand.

"Exit!"

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!"

Miyazaki Stadium was in full bloom.

"Two outs~! Three outs~! The hitter strikes off! The runner fails to steal the base! Double kill!" The commentator Shunji Shimamura shouted.

"It's quite difficult to deal with digging the earth. Catcher Nishino can actually connect so well. He will send the ball to the second base in time before the runner successfully steals the base!"

“That’s great!”

"This accuracy!"

“It’s a perfect pass!”

Three outs, offense and defense exchange, and the defense of the U18 team ended in the first half of the nine-innings.

The live broadcast screen was playing a slow motion shot of Takashi Nishino's killing. Shimamura Shunji took the script handed over by the staff and said in surprise.

"It's hard to believe!"

"Just Nishino's second base ball delivery speed just now actually reached an astonishing 1.89 seconds!"

"I have such a powerful ability to block the killing in the first grade!"

Shimamura Shunji often explains high school baseball and professional baseball. He is used to the catcher's blocking, but this time he still amazed him.

The professional baseball team's requirement for strong shoulder catchers is that the average stopping speed of second base is less than 2 seconds.

The first-grade catcher was able to enter the 1.8-second field and was able to catch the difficult to deal with the earth. Shunji Shimamura was very surprised.

It was not just Shunji Shimamura who was surprised. In the sidelines, the coaches and players of the South Korean team were involuntarily opening their mouths into "O" shapes.

"Oh!"

"sharp!"

"Look at Dahan, his face was stunned."

"How could he suddenly steal the base?"

After hearing the players' discussions, the coaches of the Korean team frowned, and their surprise was slightly different from that of the players.

Most people only pay attention to the moment of sending the ball to block the kill, but the dispatch in the infield was ignored before.

While luring the hitter to make a stick, the runners to steal the base, this ball quotient that accurately speculates the opponent's psychology and grasps the situation is the most surprising thing about the coaching staff of the South Korean team.

Especially when he saw his own player Jin Dahan's astonished expression and the happy expression of the opponent's shortstop holding the catcher's shoulder.

The coaching staff of the South Korean team is convinced that being caught in this double is the tactic of the opponent's players.

When the end.

Xiaoyuan Haidou happily hugged Nishino Tetsuya's shoulder.

"Xiaozhe, it's faster than when he was in Jiaziyuan, right?"

"Is there any? Not much faster, right?"

"Anyway, it's faster than the time when I'm blocking me! Hahaha! It's true that it's still easy to kill others!"

The current score on the field is 2-3. After the half-inning of the defense, the U18 team can launch the last round of attacks in the second half of the nine innings to tie the score.

only.

South Korean team, who made straight shots for more than 150 kilometers in a row, did not miss another hit and closed the ball successfully.

"Three out!"

"The competition is over!"

“2 to 3!”

"The Korean team won!"

The winner of this Group A focus match was the South Korean team, who led to the last minute of the game with a three-point home run on the opening game.

In this game, the two teams became a pitcher battle. The South Korean team lined up three pitchers, and the U18 team had four pitchers on the court one after another.

In terms of hits, the South Korean team fell behind 3-6, but they gave 6 four-bads in the whole game.

The U18 team scored 6 hits, but had three platoon mistakes.

When the strength is close, the two teams are not outstanding in the line play, but the defensive competition determines the outcome of the game.

After the game, the ranking ranking of Group A changed, and the top two have been decided.

South Korea ranked first with 3 wins and 0 losses, while U18 team ranked second with 2 wins and 1 defeat.

There are only 2 groups in this baseball Asian Youth Championship, a total of 7 teams, and the top 4 will enter the finals. After three group games, the U18 team, second in Group A, will first compete against the team in Group B.

During the post-match interview, Yuji Nagata told reporters.

"Starting with four bad balls, followed by a platoon error, and then the only one missed shot, only that one."

"I hope the players will realize that this is the horror of the international conference."

When facing a reporter's question, Yoshida Huisheng expressed his feelings: "Although I can't say that I'm in good condition today, I will correct it after the second game."

"Even if the Korean team's playing line is forced into a desperate situation, they will not be easily struck out."

"If you can't shoot a straight ball well, if you have the chance to meet the Korean team again next time, you must definitely control it."

The coach of the Korean team recognized Yoshida's overall performance and told the media: "Yoshida is a good pitcher. Although she is very young, she has good skills and fighting spirit."

"However, South Korea also has pitchers who are not losing to Yoshida, which is also the key to our victory."

A reporter asked the Korean team pitcher's opinion on Tetsu Nishino and received a more recognized answer.

"I'm hitting a slider, I'm going to go and get a ball with a good number of balls."

"Xino Nishino is a better hitter than expected. He is also very popular in Jiaziyuan. Seeing that he also received everyone's applause today, I think it's amazing."

"After we got to the catcher position, he guided several pitchers very well. We only had two players out of base in the next few innings."

"After knowing that there is such an opponent, I think I can't lose to him in the future and want to grow into a player who will continue to be called a player representing South Korea."

After three group matches, tomorrow will be the off day of the event on the 6th, but the U18 team retains 90 minutes of formal practice.

……………………

The next day.

Since today is the rest day stipulated in the Asian Youth Championship, the U18 team conducted a brief formal practice at the San Marli Stadium in Miyazaki.

The 90-minute formal practice started at 9 a.m. and most of it was spent on the shooting and confrontation drill.

On the pitcher mound, three people took turns to board the board by Takaoka Takaoshi Ryushen, Okugawa Kyoshinobu of Stars.

Supervisor Yuji Nagata hopes to adjust the lineup and pitching lineup at the same time, so he asks the players to play the same serious game as in actual combat.

The performance of the South Korean U18 team playing in the line cannot be said to be good.

14 flying balls were scored throughout the game, so the top priority for the hitters is to play the opponent's pitcher well.

Seeing the players' shooting confrontation results during practice, Yuji Nagata formulated the expected hitting order of the game and proposed a solution to the coaching team.

"What do you think about it when starting with people in good condition?"

Yuji Nagata's plan is to upgrade the four-pointer Fujiwara Kyoto, who scored two hits in the Korean game, to the first goal.

The second ball was the small park fight with Fujiwara Kyoda to form a blowout partner at the Canadian U-18 World Cup last year.

The third stick is the Neo-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao-Hao

Then Tetsu Nishino entered the fourth ball for the first time, and the fifth ball was Nakagawa Takaya.
Chapter completed!
