Chapter 107: ‘Cold Blooded’ Battery

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

The injury of the third baseman of Hakuryu completely stirred the blood in the hearts of Hakuryu's players.

There has never been a moment when they were as united and as hungry for victory as they are now.

To win, they must win no matter what, otherwise how can they be worthy of their injured teammate?

This kind of unity made Hakuryu's momentum unprecedentedly high. Even if they are attacking with the lower lineup now, Hakuryu has shown extraordinary aggression.

On the other hand, in Seidou, the atmosphere is somewhat dignified. On the pitcher mound, Sawamura looked solemn. At the position of the catcher, Miyuki's face was also a bit dazed.

At this time, even if everyone wants to cheer, they can't say it.

Even if the injury of the third baseman of the Hakuryu has nothing to do with them, after all, the two sides are in a game and someone on the first team is injured, this feeling is not good.

"It's not a good idea to think that way, but it's a good opportunity to attack."

In the rest area of ​​the Hakuryu High School, Sasaki gave his disciples a sign.

'Actively swing, actively run to base.'

'Let's use the champion of Kanto as the last gift for our teammate, who has been in high school for three years.'

On the strike zone, Hakuryu's eighth bat nodded.

Then put on a stance.

In the position of the catcher, Miyuki had no intention of giving Sawamura a signal, but just put the gloves in a position.

On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura also casually pitched.

It seems that both of them are not in the state.

Whoosh!

Sawamura Even didn't use his pitching form where Kitaooji and Miyano couldn't see the ball before he threw it.

'The ball is not particularly fast in the eyes of the batter. The speed of the ball should be similar to Miyano-senpai's, and the position is in the center of the inner corner.'

How could Hakuryu's eighth batter resist such a sweet ball?

He swung the bat straight away.

Ping!

The small white ball flew out.

The moment the bat touched the baseball, Hakuryu's eighth batter had a strange expression on his face.

It seems that the power of the ball is not very strong, was the power of the ball so frightening that he almost couldn't hold the bat?

Judging from the information collected before, Sawamura's pitch should not have such power.

That is to say, did the swing miss the center of the ball?

Anxiety in his heart disappeared in a flash. The eighth bat of the Hakuryu High School, after hitting the ball, he threw away the bat and ran to first base.

The baseball was poorly hit and landed right in front of the shortstop.

Kuramochi didn't say his catchphrase.

Someone was injured just now, and his laughing here is bad.

Although there is no catchphrase, his movements are not slow at all. One strode forward, picked up the ball, and sent it to first base.

SNAP!

"OUT!"

'Damn!'

Hakuryu's eighth bat, annoyed.

Finally, Sawamura threw a sweet ball, but he didn't expect him to waste the opportunity.

One Out, no one on base.

In the stands.

Kanemaru looked at Sawamura on the pitcher's mound worriedly.

"Hey, that stinky boy, is he okay?"

Even he felt that Sawamura's pitching right now was very problematic. Although he didn't have the terrifying speed of Furuya, the quality of Sawamura's pitching was also very high.

When he saw Sawamura pitching for the first time, and how he saw how hard to hit it was, he was sure there must be a few who could hit him off directly.

But in these few, it is absolutely impossible to have the eighth batter of Hakuryu High School as one of them.

'But these guys just hit it!'

This made Kanemaru have to worry about Sawamura's state. And looking at the spirit of Sawamura and Miyuki, it seems that they haven't recovered from the loss of the player's injury just now.

"It has nothing to do with us just now. The third baseman was injured because of his own mistake."

Kanemaru couldn't help but growl.

Beside him, a baby-faced Haruichi grabbed him and said, "Don't get excited, Kanemaru-kun. I feel that things shouldn't be that simple."

Um?

Kanemaru looked at Kominato Haruichi in confusion.

"Eijun-kun is not the kind of person who punishes himself because of other people's mistakes. Even If he did, this kind of performance is still possible with Miyuki-senpai around?"

Kominato Haruichi didn't go on, but Kanemaru guessed it wasn't a good thing.

"Anyway, I don't think they would be so virtuous that because someone in the Hakuryu was injured, they would tie their hands and be merciful."

On the field, the ninth batter of the Hakuryu High School went to the strike zone.

As for Sawamura and Miyuki, it seems that they still haven't recovered from their previous emotions.

Some soft-hearted viewers understood Sawamura and Miyuki's thoughts very well.

In any case, that third year was like saying goodbye to his high school career. As a player on the field, emotional ups and downs are inevitable.

After all, they are not cold-hearted machines, the players are also human, and they are also ordinary people.

'Fight out, fight out!!!'

Seeing Sawamura and Miyuki's listless appearance further aroused the hostility in the ninth batter of the Hakuryu High School.

He wanted to swing no matter what.

At this time, Sawamura's pitch came.

The ball is straight and in the middle.

'Pitcher error?'

If it was before, the Hakuryu's batter might have hesitated. Doubt is a trap? But now, he doesn't care so much anymore and just swings his bat.

He subconsciously believed that Sawamura, who was now absent-minded, might have missed the Pitch.

Sawamura may have good strength, but there is one thing that cannot be changed. No matter how good he is, he is still a freshman after all.

"Let's go!"

Aiming at the path of the ball, Hakuryu's ninth bat hit the ball far away.

The ball was hit very far, and it flew seventy or eighty meters before it landed.

In the center field, Isashiki Jun waited early for the baseball to land, and raised his glove to catch the ball in the glove.

"OUT!"

Two outs, no one on base.

The ninth batter of the Hakuryu High School, returning to his dugout, still blames himself greatly.

"Damn, I am still not strong enough. If I had more power, I'd hit a home run."

"Now this pitcher is simply vulnerable."

"Shindo, don't miss the opportunity."

"Fight, beat this guy back to his Hometown in Tokyo."

The batters of the Hakuryu High School were in high spirits.

In the stands.

A professional scout shook his head in admiration.

At this time, his assistant was discussing the game with him incessantly.

"High school students, their psychological quality and ability to bear are just bad. Seidou's battery, which was originally quite strong, didn't expect to lose everything because of an accident. But there is no way, who made them students, and their minds are inevitably simpler."

'Poor mental capacity?'

'Pure and kind-hearted?'

The professional scout turned to look at Miyuki and Sawamura, the battery.

He couldn't believe what he had just heard.

'Are these the two people that my assistant said were kind-hearted?'

'Did I watch the fake game myself, or did my assistant watch the fake game?'

'Otherwise, how could our opinions be so different?'

'This pair of battery on the field is obviously as 'cold-blooded' as they come, okay?'

'To say that they are simple and have poor psychological endurance is a joke.'
