"Line up!"

The players on both sides standing in the two rows had different expressions. Seidou, who had avenged his revenge, acted more casually.

"Ceremony!"

"Thanks for the advice!"

After the game, Raichi Todoroki still couldn't extricate himself, tears kept streaming from his eyes.

Akiba and Mishima are comforting him!

"Hey! Don't blame me! You said that at that time!

Enjoyed today's game! I have grown a lot too, thank you! "After the queue ended, Sendou came up to us!

"Boom!!!" At this time, Sawamura rushed forward regardless.

"I won't lose to you next time!" He stretched out his left hand and placed it in front of Raichi, who was still bowing his head and crying.

"Wait...! Eijun-kun!" Xiaochun heard this guy talking nonsense again and ran over quickly.

"Ah? You are the one who wins, right? Are you making fun of us? Bastards!" Mishima pointed at Sawamura and cursed.

"Sorry! This person is an idiot!" Xiaochun quickly saved Sawamura to apologize.

"I will definitely win!!! Stretch out your hand! Come on, hurry up! Hold..." However, Sawamura broke free, rushed in front of Raichi, and forcibly picked up Raichi's left hand to shake hands. He felt the hardness of Raichi's hand, and he understood something in an instant.

Then he turned around and picked up Sendou's hand...

"What are you doing?"

"Your hands are very warm! There are no calluses!" Sawamura said something meaningless.

"Baga! Of course! How could I have cocoons." Sendou shook off Sawamura.

"Sorry! This Baga is talking about the personal victory or defeat between him and Todoroki! Can you add a line? See you in the fall!"

"There is really nothing I can do against you! Then I will reluctantly add it!" Although Mishima said this, his body was very honest and his expression was unusually happy.

"This way, what happened a few days ago will be cleared up!"

"Liangqing?"

"This father and son said something very outrageous after the game between you and Ichidai San High!

Didn't you ask Todoroki what Todoroki did at the beginning of the game? "

"That's it!"

Afterwards, Sendou didn't say much. People who lost the game would need some time to adjust their emotions, so they left with Sawamura and others.

They should also thank the audience, pack up and leave.

The winner can say very little to the loser, because the loser's summer is over like this, and it is useless to say anything. If you say too much, you will be considered condescending and sarcastic!

The only ones who can comfort them are their teammates who fight with them.

"Sendou!"

"Miyuki!"

"Zhe!"

"Excellent game!"

"Nice pitch! Tanba!"

"BOSS!" When Coach Kataoka heard this, his face was full of black lines.

"Kataoka-san!"

"Two more games left!"

"I must go to Koshien this time!"

"If you have this team, you will definitely be able to go!"

"Tetsu-san!"

Seidou, who had just left the stadium, was greeted by OB, fans and classmates.

"What's wrong? Eijun-kun!" Xiaochun asked when he saw Sawamura staring at his hand.

"Huh? No!..., that guy's hands are as hard as rocks!

I definitely don't want to lose to him! "

"It's hard work for you too! You've been in the same area with that kind of monster for three years!" Jun-san turned around and teased Sawamura.

"That team will become even stronger!" Ounisang said.

"Is that so? Isn't that interesting?" Sendou asked.

"...!" After a moment of silence, the two seniors laughed.

"Maybe it will be hard for them in the next three years!" Jun-san said with a smile.

"That's right!"

"Well! Before that, I have to drive Reflection Meeting today!" Miyuki interjected.

"Especially Sawamura! Think about it!"

Hearing my mentor say this Sawamura was so excited.

Then Miyuki also mentioned Furuya, and tortured the two brothers one by one.

"Hey! Black-bellied Glasses!" Then Sendou looked straight at him.

"You told me not to call me that!..., okay! I understand! I will help you wash it!" She instinctively retorted to Sendou's call. Seeing his piercing eyes, she remembered the bet between the two.

Sendou is very satisfied with this answer.

"In this way, Seidou has entered Semifinals! There are still two wins before Koshien!

The four-bat Yuuki-kun is a strong hitting line in the center, plus the offensive follow-up pitching of four pitchers.

The most important thing is the resurrection of the ace Tanba, which stopped the pharmacist's offensive momentum! Maybe even more so than Inajitsu..." On the way back, Owada and Mine Fujio were discussing today's game.

"First-year students who feel pressured by the expectations around them!

And the third grader who turns the expectations around her into strength!

Todoroki-kun What determines the outcome in the final game is the time spent with teammates!

But..."

"But?"

"Sendou-kun's last batting completely overturned this conclusion. At that time, the three-point difference was definitely not much. With two outs and people on second and third base, it was an excellent scoring opportunity, and it also had amazing pressure.

First-year Sendou probably believed in himself more than his teammates at that time!

Therefore, the pressure on him at that time was no less than that of Todoroki-kun, but he put the excellent Ball Trajectory into the stands, and there was absolutely no luck in the Home Run.

What is the source of motivation for that child?

And Summer Tournament, who has been growing up, Sendou-kun, has repeatedly undergone transformation in this game!

In the first game, he was the last to hit the mat. He was completely different!

His existence will become an important part of how far Seidou can go this summer!

He is the only player who can grow extremely fast, have an unknown short-term growth limit, and be stable enough.

The time you can play in high school is only two and a half years, but in this short time, people can grow rapidly.

I really look forward to what kind of player Sendou-kun will become after graduating from high school! "

In the evening, everyone watched the TV report of today's game, and Semifinals was decided at the same time.

"Did that Narumiya Mei quarrel with the coach again? Interesting guy!" Sendou said after reading the news.

"You are thinking too far! Our opponent is indeed Xianquan!"

"There are more than 80 members in the team! They are strong players who have reached the top eight all year round!

This spring, we had a one-run pitching battle against Ichidai San, and we were defeated! "Senior Chris flipped through the information.

"Looks like they have a pitcher who looks really tall!"

"Are you over two meters tall?"

"I have been carrying the ace Back Number since the first grade!

That immeasurable potential also attracted the attention of the profession, the big giant, Yosuke Maki!

Because of his height, he throws a straight ball with a wide angle, and he throws a curveball with a height known as Japan's Number One! "

"Long body and curve ball..., isn't that right?" Sawamura said this, and a group of people looked at Bald Ichiro.

Then the coach announced that Tanba would become Starting Pitcher the day after tomorrow.

This not only makes Senior Tanba full of Fighting Spirit, but also helps him strengthen his confidence through actual combat.

"Curveball duel!"

"Don't lose the curveball if you lose height!" Jun-san joked.

"Tanba-san's curveball is definitely the best." Sendou added, which moved Tanba.

"If we compare head shape, I'll probably win!" Captain Tetsu loves this bald head so much!

"This has nothing to do with the shape of your head!"

"Ah haha! Tetsu-san said it well!"

"Head... head shape!" Tanba said weakly.

"Is this an overwhelming victory? Look how good it feels!" Ounisang said, already taking advantage of it.

"I told you! Don't touch it!"

After that, we made arrangements for the pitcher and planned to give Furuya a day off.

Then it was time to disband and practice independently.

And seniors Sendou and Kawakami went to rub Reflection Meeting.

Today Reflection Meeting's topic is what to do if someone is typed out.

"Because it's baseball, it's natural to get kicked out.

It's normal for a pitcher to lose points!

The important thing is what to do after being beaten out and losing points?

If you get into panic on Pitcher's Mound, look around first, and try shouting to your teammates to calm down. "

After Senior Chris finished speaking, others were also giving suggestions on how to calm down.

Miyauchi-senpai mixed in a little private stuff, and told Sawamura not to make a big fuss at Bullpen, and he would be beaten next time.

"Well..., why did I get another chance? I was obviously knocked out." Sawamura still can't understand why the coach will give him a chance.

"What do you mind? You're such a crass person! Aren't you usually very happy?" Miyuki immediately started to complain.

"No! I brought bad results to the team!"

"Didn't Senior Chris say it? It's normal for a pitcher to lose points." Sendou couldn't stand it anymore.

"Hey! Aren't you afraid of having sex with Pitcher's Mound just because you got hit by Home Run?" Miyuki said.

"Have you seen how many Home Run shots Sanada was hit today? Do you know how he faced it?" Sendou and Miyuki are not so scary when they cooperate. Sawamura can't even talk back.

"Didn't I say that? That was my mistake in matching the ball!"

"Is that the attitude of the person who made the mistake?" Sawamura finally jumped.

"That's right! You should also reflect on yourself!

That Todoroki was obviously targeting Four-Seam Fastball of Eijun! "Sendou suddenly turned its gun.

"Hey! Who are you from?" Miyuki was caught off guard by Sendou's troll, which was suddenly aimed at him, and he complained speechlessly.

"I am a partner of justice!" Sendou said deliberately.

This made Miyuki look blank.

After that, after being reminded by Senior Chris, Miyuki elaborated.

"Listen up! Baga!"

"Don't call me Baga! Baga or something like that!"

Then he started to analyze Sawamura's ball skills to let him know how good he is.

Sawamura, who was full of self-confidence, lost his mentality and even called himself a fool.

But Miyuki clearly told him that his biggest weapon now, and the reason why the coach expects him, is his courage.

This made Sawamura suddenly realize.

"Let's go together! Koshien!" Miyuki ended with this sentence.

In class the next day, Fumino and Sendou talked about the general chat content of Wakaba and Sawamura in the morning. Sendou also remembered that Miyoshi High School First Battle Defeat had joined the team and would come to watch the game tomorrow!

At this time, Sendou felt a little homesick, which was rare for him, but this topic reminded him of his grandparents and parents far away in China.

He talked to his grandparents yesterday. They said that during the finals, they would come to watch the game, and his parents, whom he had not seen for a long time, would also go to Jingu Stadium to cheer him on.

But his grandparents also told him not to be stressed, as he would be the best no matter whether he won or lost!

"Losing?"

"Boom!"

"What's wrong? Your swing is a little too eager!" Captain Tetsu said.

"No! I thought of something!"

"Then you should take a rest first!"

"No! I want to practice for a while!

In the final game yesterday, I couldn't understand why I reacted to Carter's ball. It was as if I knew from the beginning that the opponent would shoot Carter's ball. "

"So do you have an idea?"

"No!"

"Go and take a rest first! You can't concentrate on your memories right now. You can't think of anything and can't do anything. Go and calm down!"

"I know!" Sendou nodded helplessly.

"Yo west! Do it! I'm going to do it!" At this time, the sound of Sawamura suddenly burst out and sprinted with all his strength came from the sidelines.

I don't know what I was stimulating when I was recalling it, just like when I was looked down upon by Raizo Todoroki.

"Would it be better to stop him? The competition is tomorrow!" Haruno said to Miyuki next to him.

"That Baga!" Miyuki cursed and rushed forward.

"Japan's Number One is a high curveball!

To be honest, I can't imagine it at all! "Jun-san sighed next to Sendou.

"Practice Match didn't fight them either!" Ou Nisang felt the same way.

"It's probably Ball Trajectory coming diagonally from top to bottom!..." Sendou, who was resting next to him, started talking about a lot of mathematical theories that the seniors couldn't understand.

"Shut up!" Jun-san said, please be considerate of the bad students, okay?

Beware of the wrath of a scumbag.

"It's great to have people who are tall enough! The angle will be much smaller!" came the resentment from the dwarf Ounisang.

"But isn't baseball's batting advantage for short people?" Sendou said weakly.

After all, the upper and lower horizontal lines of Strike Zone are determined according to the body of the hitter. The shorter the stature, the smaller Strike Zone will be. Even Major League has happened before. In order to circumvent this loophole, a lot of dwarfs were found as hitters.

"No! It's nothing!" Under Ounisang Heshan's eyes, Sendou chose to follow his heart.

In Seidou, height jokes are a no-no!

Someone cares about it very much. You must have cared about it for several years!

Not to mention Sendou, even Jun-san would feel hairy all over when facing Onisang Heshan's eyes.

"Didn't I tell you to do some exercise today? Listen to what others say!" Miyuki scolded Sawamura all the way.

"It's over... it's completely fine!"

"It doesn't look like you're fine at all! Aren't you out of breath?"

"Ah haha! Troublesome guy!"

"That's right!" Sendou also agreed with Kuramochi's statement.

He often selectively forgets what others say. For Sawamura, he is already a common habitual offender.

"Main line-up!!!"

"Huh?" At this time, I heard Coach Kataoka shouting from the sidelines.

"Everyone gather at Field B!!!

Next, the practice of hitting high-angle shots is about to begin!!! "

I finally finished writing it, and I almost fell asleep in the middle of it... I asked for votes and went straight to sleep good night!
