The Return of Diamond Ace Pitcher

Chapter 062

"Strike, strikeout!"

Sawamura scored the last number of outs in the first half of the sixth inning, extending the hope of the game to the second half of the sixth inning.

The score was 2:1. Before the end of the game, Akagi had two chances to attack, and in these two rounds, Akagi's strongest upper position would be the turn.That is, the upper line consisting of Sawamura, Oda and Fengxiang.

Although Akagi's hope of a comeback is not great, it is definitely not without it.

The most important thing is the strikeout that Zecun just won, which is really amazing.When seeing Akagi's defensive weakness, most of the audience thought that Tenryuji would continue to carry out the short stick offensive.As long as they can continue to stop the ball in the direction of third base, then Tianlong Temple is very likely to score additional points.

In fact, Tianlong Temple, which is famous all over the country for its mobility, really adopted a short attack.In order to match their speed advantage, the players of Tianlong Temple practice short play, especially the tactical short play for a long time.

Except for a few really limited greats, everyone else's short play skills are pretty good.This is why they can accurately stop Zemura's pitch on the third base side.

Tianlong Temple's eighth rod, when standing on the strike zone, also put on a short shot posture.However, his plan was seen through by Zecun, and he deliberately mobilized him from the beginning.

Sawamura's first ball was a very tricky inside corner high ball, which was aimed at the position of the hitter's right hand.Although the palm of his hand is completely hidden behind the bat, in this position, the beater still subconsciously withdraws his hand, and the baseball gets in from where his bat originally stayed.

After a good goal, Zecun made a second ball and made a big blast. The baseball rebounded and got into Fengxiang's glove.This is also beyond the expectation of the hitter. He did not have time to take back his bat and also calculated the bat.

After the two strikes, Sawamura made the third ball in the posture of just a big burst.

The hitter was not stupid, he couldn't hit the ball that bounced off the ground in short play, so he took his bat back.It's just a pity that this ball is a good one.

In this way, the hitter was struck out.

In the bullpen of Tianlong Temple, assistant coach Xiaomu muttered angrily: "Cut, luck is really bad."

If the player did not miss the last goal, maybe Tenryuji could lead the opponent 3:1.3:1 and 2:1, don't look at the difference by one point, but they represent two completely different situations.

Akagi Middle School once tied Nagano Toritsu with two points in the last game, but they were absolutely impossible to chase Tenryuji by two points in the last game.

The reason is actually very simple.Because Akagi Middle School needs two beaters to be afraid of most.Sawamura Rongchun and Feng Xiangao are separated.Zecun was the first and Feng Xiang was the third.In the second half of the sixth inning, Akagi started with the eighth.

"bad luck?"

The old man Shanye shook his head and muttered, saying nothing.Perhaps he was the only one in the audience who saw the extraordinary pitch of Zemura this time.

Sixth game, second half.Akagi Middle School attacked.

"Good shot, good shot, good shot, strikeout!"

"nice shot!"

"nice shot!"

"nice shot!"

"strike out!"

There was no mess, even though Akagi's little friend really worked hard, Qi Haiyao easily won two strikeouts from Akagi Middle School.

Not to mention his sharp change of the ball, just his straight ball soaring to one hundred and three is not something that the friends of Akagi Middle School can handle.

Two outs, no one on base, and the hitter's turn to the first.

"First shot, pitcher, Sawamura-san!"

Originally, Sawamura hit the first, even if he had planned to fight Qi Haiyao in the sixth game.It's just a pity that Qi Haiyao didn't give Akagi so many opportunities to play. Except for the first round he took a hit, no matter it was him or Fengxiang in the other rounds, Oda didn't take effective hits from Qikai's hands.

So the scene was embarrassing, Zecun had to stand in the strike zone after two outs.If Akagi Middle School still has such a chance, it is that he must go to base and return to home base to score.

"The opportunity is really small~"

With a wry smile, Zecun could only force it.If he didn't, Akagi would have no chance at all.

Standing upright on the strike zone, the bat in Sawamura's hand swayed slightly, which seemed to be larger than the real bat.

On the pitcher mound, Qi Haiyao's eyes drifted a little when he saw this scene.

He has seen Zecun's attack method many times.In the Kanto Conference, and even in the national competition, there are a lot of strong hits with this standard preparation position.

"The pitch looks strange. But the swing is different. It's very regular."

To make a complaint, Qi Haiyao focused all his attention on Zecun.He has solved Zecun once before, and this time he still has the confidence to solve Zecun again.

As long as Zecun was resolved here, it would have cut off all the hopes of Akagi.

Come on, let you see, can you play my curve ball?

"Wow!"

The white ball flew to Zecun’s hand along a mysterious trajectory. Zecun swung his bat decisively.

"nice shot!"

The first ball was missed and the number of balls fell behind.

Sawamura's face became more solemn, perhaps because of his own illusion. It seemed that Qi Haiyao seemed to make the ball sharper the more he pitched, so I really can't underestimate it.

"Huh~"

With a sigh of relief, Zecun's eyes stared at Qi Haiyao closely, waiting for his second goal.

"call out!"

Like a whistle arrow, the out-of-the-corner straight kick that caught people off guard made Zecun subconsciously unable to react.

"nice shot."

Two consecutive good shots, straight shots mixed with sharp changes, coupled with a smooth rhythm, a ball speed of 130 kilometers...

Nanami Haruka is indeed a well-known super pitcher in the country.

Zecun had to admire this.Although he has experience, in the final analysis he is not a player who is good at percussion, and his current physical fitness is not comparable to that of his previous life.

If he has the best physical fitness in his previous life, with a 130-kilometer ball, he can wait for the ball to enter his hand before swinging his bat.

Now, this can only be a good wish.

It seemed that when the mountains and rivers were exhausted, Zecun suddenly put out his short club.

Short stick, at this time?

Qi Haiyao was taken aback subconsciously when he saw Zecun swing his short stick.In his opinion, with Zecun’s speed, no matter how good he is in short play, I am afraid it will be difficult to safely get to base under the guard of Tianlong Temple.

Then this short play is very interesting!

Do you want to cheat?

How can it be so easy?

Qi Haiyao sneered and threw his third ball, a high-altitude curve.

"Wow!"

...

Episode 063

For Zecun, Qi Haiyao admires from the heart.Although in terms of current strength, Qi Haiyao is no worse than Zecun, and may even be higher.But Qi Haiyao smelled the same kind of breath from Zecun.

A breath of genius.

Although this may sound like a shit, it is true.Only geniuses can be recognized by geniuses.

Qi Haiyao has seen many baseball masters, most of whom are much older than him. As long as they play against each other, Qi Haiyao can have a rough estimate of the opponent's strength.Although this estimate is not 100% accurate, it is still true.The most terrifying thing is that Qi Haiyao can still know the opponent's limit and when he can exceed the opponent's limit...

This is terrible!

For opponents that he can definitely surpass, the opponent's age is much older than himself, even if Qi Haiyao's strength is not as good as the opponent at that time, it is difficult to have much interest in the opponent.

You are better than me because you are older than me. When we stand on the same field, you won't even be worthy to lift my shoes.

Of course Qi Haiyao wouldn't say this stupidly.But he does feel this way, and this feeling is still deeply rooted and cannot be changed.

Zecun is an exception.

Even if he fought head-on for a few rounds, Qi Haiyao still didn't see where Zecun's bottom line was.Therefore, Qi Haiyao believes that Zecun and him are the same kind of people, and neither of them has their own limits. Only God knows what strength and achievements will be in the future.

Of course, these are all pitches aimed at Sawamura.As for Zecun's attack, Qi Haiyao certainly had another comment.In the opponents that Qi Haiyao has played against, although Zemura's strike strength is not one of the best, he can definitely rank in the top ten.

You know, Nanami Haruka is not just a player from Nagano.As a well-known strong pitcher in the country, he has participated in the national competition twice, once in elementary school and once in middle school.The Kanto Conference has participated in countless...

Such a player evaluates Zecun’s strike strength and ranks among the top ten in the country, and the gold content of these words is very high.

But even with such a hitter, Qi Haiyao is still confident that he can solve it.

His strength is evident from this.

"Wow!"

The white ball flew over almost against Zecun's chest.Zecun, standing on the strike zone, did not move his feet at all, did not retreat for half a step, and did not seem to be frightened by Qi Haiyao's pitch.

At the same time, the short stick in his hand was taken back, and then he was hit hard.

Qi Haiyao guessed right, Zecun did use deception.It's just that his deception is different. Sawamura's deception is not to block Qi Haiyao's ball, but to aim.

Strange to say, and I don't know the reason. After Zemura used the short stick to aim, the strike success rate was very scary.

His previous professional baseball batting rate was only 30%. He was just in his early years, but he used his short hit to aim first, and then hit as high as 70%.In the beginning, no one cared, Zecun often used this method to build his magic.

Later, the occupational database was updated, and statistics were made specifically for Zecun’s short hits and targeted short hits.

People were surprised to find that Zecun still has such characteristics.The success rate of short play tactics is as high as 98%, and the on-base rate has a small 30%.The rate of cheating on base is as high as 71%...

Faced with this miraculous phenomenon, experts can't tell the reason.Originally, Zemura used less of this attack method. Later, as he used more and more times, the monster pitchers of the major leagues had to formulate special tactics against Zemura, even when the situation was unfavorable. Bring Zecun to the base.

...

These magical records made a lot of trouble in Zecun's previous life, but now no one knows.

Of course Qi Haiyao didn't know, he threw his own decisive ball confidently, but he didn't know that Sawamura had long been eyeing this ball.

"Ping!"

Without a trace of extra action, as if logically, Sawamura shot Qihaiyao's winning ball.

The ball flew out, Zecun threw the bat and ran to first base frantically.

"Snapped!"

The baseball bounced from the ground, and the shortstop of Tenryuji flew to the baseball and then passed to first base.Sawamura went to first base almost indiscriminately with baseball.

The first base referee has swollen eyes.

Who can tell him what he should do now?

"Out!"

When the first base referee's voice uttered, it seemed to sound the death knell for Akagi.

There will be no suspense in the next game.

In the seventh game, Tianlong Temple Middle School used short hits to advance, steal bases, destroy mobility, and scored another point.Although Zecun had solved Qi Haiyao, Akagi was gone.

The total score is 3:1!

In the second half of the seventh inning, Akagi Middle School attacked.

Oda, Fengxiang, and Yamaguchi were struck out by two of the three, but Fengxiang hit the ball and was caught by the pitcher Qi Haiyao.

"competition is over!"

"Semi-finals of the Nagano Prefecture Regional Competition, the second game. Akagi Middle School played in Tenryuji Middle School and ended. The score was 3:1 and Tenryuji Middle School won."

...

After the game, Zecun's eyes drifted away, and the surrounding friends and opponent Tianlong Temple, including the surrounding audience, were no longer in his sight.

"Pattern~"

I don't know when there was a drop of water on his face. Zecun looked up at the sky blankly. Is it raining?

The sky, the sun is shining brightly, and the person who is shining is upset and irritable.

Haha, lost, only one game away.Although Sawamura didn't have much expectations for this competition at the beginning, he still felt a little uncomfortable after losing at this time.

One game, only one game away to win.

If it’s not Tianlong Temple, one of the top eight in the country, standing in front of you, if you can vote better in this game, if...
