Chapter 106: Fallen on the Field

A runner's on base!

Seeing Kominato Ryosuke stepping on first base, the morals of the players from the Hakuryu High School subconsciously sank.

The opponent is Seidou, and it is ideal for no one to go to base. Once someone goes to base, they will inevitably fall into passive.

"One out!"

At this time, a voice suddenly came from the position of the center field.

Mima Soichiro is giving the pitcher some spirit.

"One Out!"

"Let the batter come over, we'll stop it."

"Miyano, Pitch boldly."

In the face of hits, Hakuryu's fielders, led by Mima, encouraged and supported the Pitcher Miyano on the pitcher's mound.

In the stands, the fans in the Brotherhood of the Red Heart and the Demon King's Guards watched in surprise at the scene in front of them.

'So familiar~'

It's just that it wasn't Seidou or Sawamura who did all this. But their opponents.

"Shameless thief!"

"This is a steal!~"

The people who are supporting Seidou look at Hakuryu High School like this, they feel that an evil fire is simmering in their chest.

"Kill them!"

"Roar, Spitz."

"It's time for you to show your strength!"

The two teams that are playing on the field are not doing well, but the fans and spectators who support them off the field are excited first.

"I'm not a Spitz!"

In the strike area, Isashiki's face was ashen with the audience.

But anger is anger, and hits are still necessary. In the face of the flying baseball, he actively swung the bat.

Ping!

The white ball was hit high and flew out.

In the center field position, Mima rushed to the landing spot of the white ball early and caught it.

"OUT!"

Two outs, runner at first base.

In the dugout of Seidou.

Chris held the recorder's pen in his hand and let it spin nimbly in his hand.

"It's a fishing ball!"

The reason why Isashiki Jun was solved just now was the result of a fishing ball.

"It seems that our opponents have studied us very thoroughly."

Miyuki nodded, agreeing.

Hearing the discussion between the two, Kataoka nodded and said.

"High school baseball today is no longer as simple as it used to be, and intelligence warfare is getting more and more attention."

During the conversation between the three people, Seidou's fourth Batter, Yuuki Tetsuya got into the strike zone.

In the position of the Catcher, Takehara's heart sank subconsciously.

'Coming!'

Seidou's strongest Batter.

'Now we're ahead and have two outs'

'But it's not even a guarantee.'

Takehara thought and glanced at his own rest area. At this time, he needed to know the plans of his own Coach.

'Aggressively attack!'

Sasaki's instructions were simple and direct, and he was still aggressive.

Although two Outs, there is nothing wrong with Walking the batter. But two Outs are not a good opportunity to decide the outcome.

At this time, solving the Yuuki head-on will definitely have unexpected benefits.

Taking the instructions, Takehara nodded and conveyed the meaning to Miyano.

"It would be really embarrassing."

On the pitcher's mound, Miyano complained unwillingly.

The active offense is easy to say, but the opponent is Yuuki Tetsuya. Can tricky pitching really solve him?

Miyano was skeptical about this.

They used the same strategy to deal with Sawamura before, and didn't they fail.

'It's just that the Coach said that. As an Ace, how can you back down? No matter what kind of monsters you face, they will be solved by you.'

Miyano steeled his heart and pitched the ball.

The ball's path is to the inside corner and deviates a bit from the zone.

Tetsuya did not swing the bat in the face of this ball and moved sideways.

SNAP!

"BALL!"

After a Ball, Miyano threw the second ball non-stop, this ball into the strike zone.

Tetsu, who had been waiting for a long time, unceremoniously swung the bat against the ball.

Ping!

After the white ball was swept, it flew out of bounds.

"FOUL!"

This ball, when entering the plate, slid into the inner corner.

"Whoo~"

With a long sigh of relief, the hand holding the bat lifted up, aimed at the mound, and then resumed his stance.

'Bring it on!'

In the catcher's position, Takehara watched in shock at the ball that was hit out of bounds by Yuuki.

'Fast, incredibly fast.'

When the ball was hit, it flew past like a flash of light.

The fielders didn't react at all.

If such a ball falls within the bounds, can the Players really stop it?

In this regard, Takehara was deeply suspicious.

'Strong as a monster!'

Even though Takehara himself was the fourth batter of a Famous School, he couldn't help but be startled when he saw Tetsuya's swing.

However, now we don't have a better chance, we can only choose a showdown here.

'Come on, Miyano!'

On the mound, Miyano pitched.

Whoosh!

A small white ball flies to the inner corner.

On the strike zone, Yuuki Tetsuya was like a high-level swordsman entering a state of meditation, motionless, like a statue.

After waiting for the ball to enter his hand, he suddenly opened his eyes and swung his bat.

Ping!

The white ball flew out, landed, and flew out against the third base sideline.

Fast, scary fast.

Done!

Although the ball was in front of the third baseman, Takehara closed his eyes in despair. A third baseman can't reach out and catch a ball at this speed.

The ball is about to fly away.

At this time, Hakuryu's third baseman threw himself up.

"Boom~"

The bat hit the third baseman with a grunt.

The third baseman, visible to the naked eye, turned pale.

But even so, he picked up the ball first and sent it to first base.

"OUT!"

Three outs, offense, and defense exchange.

If that's the case, it's just because Seidou was unlucky and failed to score points.

But next, Hakuryu, the third baseman who had just passed the ball to the first base, fell down and didn't get up.

The game is suspended.

After a simple examination by doctors, the third baseman had a fractured rib and needed to rest for more than three months.

In other words, it may be difficult for him to catch up with this year's summer competition.

For a third-year player, this result is really cruel.

Watching the teammates being carried down by the doctor, the momentum of the Hakuryu High School changed.

Their eyes were all red as if they were going to fight with Seidou.

In this regard, Seidou's players feel very aggrieved.

The power of a ball over 180 kilometers, even if it bounces off the ground, is scary, right?

You just used your body to stop it up, no one can get out of it safely.

The players of Seidou felt that they really couldn't blame them for this.

And even felt a little guilty for that.

Anyway, other players are injured. And it is them who cause it.

"Do not blame yourself!"

When the Tetsu came back, Kataoka comforted him.

"Yes!"

There is guilt in Tetsuya's eyes, but he has no regrets.

Even if it happens again, he will still swing.

The game continues.

In the first half of the fourth inning, Hakuryu High School attacked.
