Chapter 589 Compatible

Afterwards, the Baishan players solved Xing Leng's five bats step by step, ending the defense in the second half of the inning.

The 1-1 score did not last long.

In the first half of the second inning, Hakusan's leadoff batter Ibotada hit a double, and the subsequent batter immediately followed up with a hit-and-run. After sacrificing two outs, Ibotada survived at home plate.

2 to 1.

Baishan High School exceeded the score again.

The pitching condition of Seiryo's ace Kyoshin Okukawa was obviously not as good as in the previous game. It was slightly inferior to his normal condition and he only showed about 70% to 80% of his strength.

However, the crux of the matter is that even if Okawa Kyoshinobu can only perform at 70% to 80% of his strength, his pitching is still at the top level of high school.

The speed ball of 150 kilometers and the change ball of 130 kilometers are beyond the reach of many people in their lifetime.

Higashi Takuji and Toyama Ekikei know very well that the more opportunities they have, the less they can be overly optimistic about the situation.

No matter how many runners there are on the bases, it's not as valuable as the scores you get.

Baishan reversed its overwhelming attitude in the previous five rounds, but picked up its previous special skills and played a conservative and stable small ball strategy.

2 hits are worth 2 points, which is quite efficient, but the price is that it is difficult to form a continuous hit and score overall situation.

But being eaten bit by bit was enough to give Xing Leng a headache.

Okugawa Kyōshin's pitches were enough to suppress Hakuyama's batters most of the time. After Seiryo High School eliminated Oishi Reitama's eight-pitch pitch, he immediately wanted to counterattack with late bats in the second half of the inning.

Baishan High School defended itself.

Although he gave up a double, he was still on base in the end.

The game entered the third round.

""In the first half of the third inning, Hakusan High School's offense, the batter came on, nine-bat pitcher, Nishino-kun.""

The inning started with Kazuya Nishino. The batter adhered to home plate discipline and did a good job selecting the ball, putting a lot of pressure on Kyoshin Okugawa.

If Okugawa Kyoushin was at his best, he would have already turned on strikeout mode at this time. Unfortunately, today he needed to expend more energy to get an out.

After two outs, the White Mountain batters hit four bases one after another, scoring first and second base.

Hakusan High School's overt attrition tactics were very successful. At this time, Okawa Kyoshinobu's ball count reached an astonishing 50 goals.

50 pitches were thrown before the third inning was over, and Okugawa Kyounobu's already insufficient physical strength made matters worse.

"pause!"

The director of Seiryo High School stopped the game and sent a substitute pitcher to pass the order.

Zhang Zhe warms up by swinging the bat outside the strike zone.

Two outs, one and two bases occupied, this is a rare opportunity.

The Xinglin players returned to their positions after conferring.

Zhang Zhe walked into the right batter's box, raised his bat and waited for the pitch to begin.

On the pitcher's mound, Kyoshin Okawa pondered for more than ten seconds before releasing the ball.

Baseball is coming.

From Zhang Zhe's perspective, the initial path of the ball was very similar to that of a straight ball, but after observing it for a moment, the ball seemed to fall in an arc, and its path was relatively outside.

Zhang Zhe felt that the entry point of the ball was too high, so he calmly let it pass.

"Snapped!"

Catcher Shinnosuke Yamase caught the ball and quietly pulled it down a little.

The ball was indeed not held back very well. The referee made a firm decision and it was undoubtedly a bad ball.

Zhang Zhe looked at Okugawa Kyoshin and felt that the balls he shot today were all very high.

Just as Zhang Zhe was thinking this, Okugawa Kyoshin threw a very tricky change-up ball, which landed in the low corner of the strike zone.

The number of balls becomes 1 bad and 1 good.

Zhang Zhe spun the bat twice, moved his wrist, and prepared to start actively hitting the bat.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw catcher Shinnosuke Yamase squatting in the outside corner.

Suddenly an idea flashed.

“After the inner angle is low, does the outer angle become high?”

"No way?"

Zhang Zhe rejected his naive idea. The opponent's catcher should also know that he was a catcher, and ordinary ball matching routines could not fool him at all.

Maybe the star catcher is using the crouching position to trick himself in reverse.

In just one breath, Zhang Zhe deduced it in his mind.

However, when the ball flew from Kyou Okukawa's hand, Zhang Zhe realized that he had been tricked.

The ball comes high along the outside corner.

“Very flat!”

Zhang Zhe made his judgment immediately.

The straighter the ball path means the higher the rotation speed, and the speed of the ball definitely does not appear to be slow.

"Speedball!"

Any hesitation may lead to missing the target, so you must not hesitate at this time.

The body starts up even faster.

The moment you decide to release the bat, just swing the bat forward with the full lead.

The ball is approaching.

The swinging bat is also on point.

"Qiang!"

In order to ensure a hit, Zhang Zhe controlled the intensity of the hit and pushed the ball to the right front of his body.

After a shock, the ball flew backwards into the outfield.

The baseball flew mid-air above the grass like a cruise missile, accurately piercing the outfield defense of Seiryo High School and stuck between the two outfielders in the right half.

The deep hit dealt a heavy blow to Seiryo High School in an instant.

If it was an irreparable out-of-field home run, the points lost would have already been clear, and it would have been easy for the Xinglin players.

However, a hit in the field still has the possibility of saving a score. The Xinglin players must all move to cover and pass the ball back without stopping.

"Safe!"×2

In the end, the Xinglin players did not intercept the runner who was already on base and started early.

However, Zhang Zhe was forced to retreat to second base and celebrated happily while stepping on the base bag.

"It's not easy!"

After five consecutive no-hit games, he finally hit again, and got a crucial hit. I was really excited.

He was just running the bases and didn't pay attention to the speed of the ball. Now when he saw the numbers flashing on the display above the center bench, Zhang Zhe was even more delighted.

【151km】

There is no doubt that the four-seam fastball just now was a ball above Kyoshin Okawa's average today.

This ball was hit firmly, and it was a major blow to Okugawa Kyounobu himself and other Seiryo players.

But now there is no time for the Xingling players to say "Hakusan's four-sticks are really good". The crisis of Baishan High School's consecutive hits at any time is imminent.

Kyoushin Okawa now stops smiling before pitching.

No matter what the Xingling players think, it's Zhang Zhe's fault, but for the time being, they can only vent their anger on the subsequent hitters.

Ibotada hit a strong fly ball, but the second baseman Seiryo flew up and caught it.

"Out!"

The depressed Ibata secretly said that he was unlucky. If he wore it out, he would at least get another point.

Supervisor Dong Tuo is very satisfied with everyone’s performance.

In the opening three innings of Hakusan High School's offense, the technical and tactical execution and content of the game were impeccable. They scored 4 runs on just 3 hits. It can be said that they seized almost every opportunity.

Whether it was wielding a big stick or sacrificing points, Baishan High School could switch seamlessly, making it impossible for the opponent's defense to be watertight, thus accumulating small advantages into big advantages, and took the initiative to win 4-1 in the first half of the three games. right.
