"Boom——" Hongo just threw that ball, and his momentum instantly overwhelmed the opponent's batter.
His eyes were full of arrogance, which made people hate him so much that they made up their minds to fight him out to get rid of his arrogance, but in the blink of an eye——
"Batter's out!"
There were many spectators waiting for this scene, and the buzz became louder.
"151km! This is what I want to see!"
"Look at that expression!"
Sitting in the middle of the crowd, everyone at Seido suddenly looked ugly.
"Tch—" Kuramochi made a disdainful sound, but kept the rest of the words in his heart. Regardless of his character, Hongo, that guy, does have such proud strength.
Among the pitchers, Kōshū and others frowned and observed quietly.
"If he plays now, he can basically seal the battle."
Early 10am.
"Let's go and warm up."
Seido's game started at 11 o'clock. At this time, Hongo was no longer pitching on the field.
Kōshū immediately set off, fearful of the team Kyoma University, and was immersed in his own thoughts for a long time.
When he stepped out of the stadium gate and was struck by the silence outside, he finally came to his senses.
At this time, he discovered that it was not only himself who had made no sound just now, but also his teammates along the way.
The game is still going on inside, and the noise seems to be wrapped in a layer of plastic foam, but the progress of the game can still be judged from the ups and downs of the sound.
'Well, let's win the next game first. '
In the next game, Seido plays against Bailong, with Furuya starting.
Furuya, who had been resting for a game, finally got the chance to start. He tried his best to hide his happiness. It was not until Miyuki sharply pointed out that he lowered the corners of his mouth.
"I'm not laughing!"
"You're lying, you just smiled so brightly, your teeth Delia came out." Miyuki passed the ball back.
Furuya firmly denied it, "That's because you saw it wrong!"
At this time, a person stepped in and said, "Furuya, sometimes you are like a child, and you have a temper with the captain before you grow up! Hahaha!"
"Uh..." Haruichi was standing next to him, watching Eijun lecture the others like an adult. He really didn't know what to say.
'Eijun and Furuya have not experienced much training as an ace, so I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. '
In the eyes of Haruichi, the ace of a team is synonymous with the team.
And when a team fails, the first impression in everyone's mind is that the ace has failed again.
Ace, Ace.
It's not something you can win just by playing a few more games.
In the minds of all discerning people, there is a scale of who is the best pitcher and who is the pitcher responsible for the team's victory or defeat.
A few steps away, the figure with his back to everyone had no intention of showing his emotions.
Haruichi When I was browsing on YouTube, I saw an interview with a team that had not broken through the county conference.
When asked who they thought was the best pitcher of this generation, the answer was shocking. They didn't mention the popular pitchers. Instead, they answered the pitcher who had repeatedly stopped them from entering Koshien.
That pitcher was defeated in just one round on the Koshien field.
This is what is called, what you see constitutes your world, and what you experience constitutes your thoughts.
'Three times, the third time... '
The feud between Kōshū and Hongo looks like it will last until their graduation day.
"Kōshū——"
"Huh?" Kōshū gave him a questioning look.
"Lang Zhi and I are here to help you warm up."
"Well, thank you."
——20 minutes later——
When the noise came from the venue again, Seido everyone paused for a moment.
"It's over."
It's their turn next.
"We must not lose to those people." Maezono looked ferocious. The 'those people' he mentioned were obviously not the Bailong he was about to fight against.
Miyuki said coolly from the side, "But they are not the ones we have to deal with first. We have to wait until we win this game before we can compete."
"Of course that's what I meant-"
"Hey hey hey, I know, I know."
The two people in the front intended to stimulate the atmosphere, but instead started fighting among themselves.
But from another perspective, it really inspired everyone's atmosphere.
"What are you two doing?" Kuramochi forced his way between the two of them, breaking up their dispute.
Really, when will these two people understand that they are both doing good to the team, but in different ways?
"Hi, hi, captain and vice-captain, you two get along well and don't quarrel." Eijun started again.
In Koshien, the atmosphere dropped. The audience who had just watched a game had to start over from the first game.
"Not an ace." Kyoma University's team stood behind and watched the game.
Judging from this move, everyone quickly understood that Seido was preparing for the game the day after tomorrow.
But the sighing hasn't started yet.
The next moment, Air Raid Siren sounded.
On Pitcher's Mound, the pitcher has raised his feet.
The swinging arms drove the wind on Pitcher's Mound, and it only took a moment for the ball to go from being held in his hand to being released.
The batter's nerves tightened suddenly, but his body was like a machine that had been in disrepair for a long time. It would not start until the ball had passed Home Plate.
"Pa--" The catcher caught it beautifully.
"Good shot!"
This first ball changed the atmosphere of the entire stadium.
"154km!"
"This is the fastest speed in Chunjia this year!"
"True or not, today's two games were a huge profit."
A man who could conquer the entire field with just his ball speed appeared. Furuya couldn't help but glance at the numbers on the scoreboard several times.
'154 kilometers... '
This number turned on his excitement switch, and several subsequent balls could easily reach around 150.
Miyuki pressed his hands down, signaling him not to be so excited at the beginning.
But the voice of the audience was already in place, and in the eyes of the pitcher, the catcher became very small at the end of Home Plate.
'154 kilometers, really good condition today. Can you pitch a few more innings? '
After four games, although Furuya's physical strength was reduced, he was able to maintain his condition with adrenaline.
He just stood in front of Kataoka Manager, not as noisy as Eijun, but quietly expressing his opinions.
Kataoka Manager was not affected and turned to ask Kōshū: "How is it?"
The ace nodded as he finished his warm-up.
"The next game starts with Kōshū."
'Crack—' the heartbreaking sound of a certain pitcher was so loud that Eijun in Bullpen could hear it.
"What a pity." Ochiai Coach felt sorry for this pitcher. "154 kilometers is enough to be the ace of other teams." '
But Seido is a team built with Kōshū as the center. No matter how powerful Furuya is, it can only be a satellite.
"There's something going on over there. Is the ace going to be replaced?" On the opposite side of Dugout, Bailong's supervisor has been paying attention to the opponent's follow-up strategy.
As we all know, Seido has begun to implement the policy of continued investment in the past two years, and together with Great Troll Wisteria, it has taken the entire Koshien trend in a completely different direction.
In the entire follow-up strategy, the focus of other teams' comebacks is to force Seido to switch shots, so that Seido's follow-up timing is misplaced.
"Did you fail..." This method is easier said than done.
Center merger in progress...
Someone saw the director washing his face in the bathroom today. He seemed to be crying?
It's inevitable. She probably won't be able to stay.
Then tomorrow we will have a dinner at the center and we will probably talk about this matter.
I'm not sure how many of the team will be retained after the merger
If you really get graduated, it doesn't matter. Just take the money and leave, and let's take a break for two months.
Then during the rest time, I will probably explore full-time writing or something like that.
If you can get ahead with dual-opening, then stick to it
After a few months, if you still don't have the ability to make a living, just take the civil service exam or find a job.
