Ace of Diamonds: A world-class speedball signed at the start

Chapter 54

Second half of the seventh inning.

The first hitter to play was Kubon Sawamura.

He swung the bat three times in a row, and got a dismal end to all of them.

Sawamura still looked confident before he came on the court, so much so that after being strikeout, he was a little embarrassed.

The second hitter to play is Ichibon Takeshi.

He swung the bat when Hiromi Tatei threw his second throw, and hit.

It’s a pity that the baseball landed right in front of the first baseman.

He was easily blocked by a first baseman.

The third hitter to play was Ryosuke Kominato.

Although Hiromi Tatemi was already very tired, he still used his superb skills as always, constantly hitting the ball out of bounds, consuming Hiromi Tate’s physical strength.

But.

At a time when 4 bad balls are about to appear.

Hiromi Tate’s sudden state erupted and threw a curveball that changed greatly in arc.

Caught off guard.

Ryosuke Kominato waved empty.

As a result, Kiryu scraped together three good balls and eliminated Ryosuke Kominato.

……

First half of the eighth inning.

Sawamura is not back to his previous good luck.

No more shots were made to drift the ball in advance, resulting in Kiryu’s batter easily hitting the outfield.

Perhaps because he knew that Lin Tian’s defensive ability was very strong.

So Kiryu’s players, under the premise of ability, chose to hit the ball in the left field/right field.

And these two positions were defended by Isashiki and Hakushu, and Lin Tian didn’t bother to intervene.

Anyway, Qingdao has a big lead, and there is no need to fight with seniors for this goal.

As for whether Jun Isashiki and Hakushu were successfully prevented?

It can only be said that the landing point of the ball is not close.

If they are not close enough, then although their defensive ability is strong, they cannot be stopped.

But.

Although Kiryu played a lot of outfield fights.

But under Qingdao’s tough defense, he got 2 points.

Speaking up.

Qingdao’s defense did not weaken, and it was also thanks to Lin Tian’s previous strikeouts.

So.

Yuki and the others have saved their physical strength.

……

Second half of the eighth inning.

The first player to hit the field was Sanbao Lin Tian.

As before, he uses powerful techniques to constantly knock Hiromi’s ball out of bounds.

When the 21st out-of-bounds ball is played.

The ball thrown by Hiromi Tate, finally revealed a flaw.

And then!

was knocked out of the field fence by Lin Tian’s stick!

That’s right!

Lin Tian blasted out another home run!

And the baseball flight distance is extremely high, so that even if Kiryu’s team members want to stop it, they can’t do it!

Yuki, Masuko, and Miyuki, who then came on the field, also played an asuki.

But.

As Jun Isashiki hit a half-hit infield roll the earth.

Kiryu with tacit cooperation!

Directly double kill Isashiki and Yuki!

Fortunately, after that, Hakushu contributed to Uchino Yasuka, allowing Masuko and Miyuki to enter base separately, and Hakushu also went to first base smoothly.

But……

Although the green road is full of bases…

But Sawamura, who appeared next…

With a gorgeous swing, he once again glorified the result of being knocked out by strikeouts…

And therefore therefore.

Seido wasted a great opportunity to continue to open the scoreline.

……

Ninth inning.

Sawamura was surprised to throw consecutive balls that drifted ahead of schedule.

As a result, Kiryu’s teammates were lured out of the bat, and the final ball was defended by Seimichi.

After being eliminated three hitters in a row.

Offensive and defensive exchange.

And the second half of the round is Qingdao attack.

But Seimichi was ahead of Kiryu.

So.

The second half of the round does not need to be held.

It is now possible to declare Seido victorious in this practice match.

……

In the original.

Osaka Kiryu arrives at Seido in the afternoon.

So I held only one practice session and went back.

And in reality.

Osaka Kiryu arrived in the morning.

So after a practice game.

The members of Osaka Kiryu all met lunch in the cafeteria of Seido.

Moreover.

Wait until you’re done.

In consultation with the coaches of both sides, the second practice session began.

For Coach Matsumoto.

The more matches against strong teams, the merrier.

Because every game, the players will gain a huge harvest.

And for Coach Kataoka.

He also wanted to see how Akataka Shimogu, who is also good at high-speed straight balls, would perform against Kiryu Kami-Osaka.

That’s right!

In the second practice session in the afternoon!

The starting pitcher is not Lin Tian, but Gu Xiao!

……

In the blink of an eye.

Sunset.

At this time, the second practice match between Seimichi and Kiryu officially ended.

As for the result…

Qingdao narrowly lost…

That’s right!

He also defeated Kiryu’s Seido in the morning, and lost to Kiryu in the afternoon!

As for why this is so…

It can only be said!

Xiao Guxiao’s ball control is too poor!

In Kiryu’s eyes, the high-speed straight ball thrown by Shimitani Xiao is easy to judge whether it is a good ball or a bad ball.

So……

Kiryu’s team members were not fooled once!

In layman’s terms!

It was when Gu Xiao threw a bad ball that he didn’t swing the bat once!

Let it fall!

Throw 4 bad balls and send them to base!

As for throwing good balls?

This also needs to be asked, of course, it is a swing of the bat!

In a word……

In the face of Kiryu Osaka, who has the highest strike firepower in the country, Akatsuki was completely pierced!

If it weren’t for Lin Tian and Ryosuke Kominato using superb techniques to increase the Anda rate of their teammates by consuming Hiromei’s physical strength, it is estimated that it would not be a narrow defeat, but a fiasco!

……

But.

Although Guxiao was pierced.

There is still a lot to gain.

And in the midst of numerous gains!

The most important thing is to let Guxiao know more deeply how important ball control is!

As for whether Guxiao can correct this after realizing this, this can only be tested by time!

……

Under dusk.

Entrance to the baseball stadium.

The team members of Seimichi and Kiryu are exchanging pleasantries with each other.

“So envious-”

“You actually have 4 managers!”

“And, all of them are so cute!”

“There is no one on our side…”

Kiryu’s team members said to everyone in Qingdao with envy.

“In other words, you guys are training now, right?”

“Obviously we are so tired, in the morning practice match, they can even beat us by a big score, it is really too strong!”

In the previous chat, Kiryu’s team members also learned that Seimichi had just completed hellish training.

This also made Kiryu everyone startled.

They couldn’t understand at all why Qingdao could burst out with such powerful combat power when they were so tired.

“The main thing is that Lin Tian perfectly defended your attack.”

Seido captain Tetsuya Yuki said with a smile.

“Speaking of Lin Tian, he’s only in the first grade, right? So perverted at such a young age, if he reaches the second grade, who can beat him? ”

“Nope!”

“Even if he is now, it is estimated that not many people can beat An Fight from his hands, right?”

Kiryu’s bucktooth team member said with emotion.

“But!”

“I lost this time, but the next time we fight, we will definitely pay it back!”

Kiryu’s Murata said with high morale.

“Haha!”

“I can’t ask for it!”

Jun Isashiki responded with a big laugh.
