Score!

"Clang!"

The white ball was hit by Sawamura and flew backward.

The moment the ball hit the bat, Sawamura felt a little numb in his palm, the ball was much heavier than he thought. Generally speaking, the sharper the change, the greater the restriction on the power of the ball.

In terms of Nanami Haruna's curve change, shouldn't his ball be that heavy?

"There is life in this guy's pitching."

Sawamura felt a momentary loss in his heart, but his tempered mental will did not stop his movements. As soon as the ball was hit, Sawamura threw away his bat and ran toward first base.

"Snap!"

The baseball bounced off the ground five or six meters away from the second baseman at Tenryuji.

At this time, the second baseman of Tenryuji flew like a bird and blocked the ball. Only when he realized that if he caught the ball with his gloves, he would inevitably fall to the ground and miss the opportunity to block Sawamura, he opened the gloves completely and slapped the ball out.

On the other hand, the shortstop was also very quick, catching the ball with the glove and then passing through to the first base.

"pretty!"

Even fans who support Akagi have to sigh with emotion, the strength of Tenryuji. The ball that Sawamura hit just now can be said to be a 100% hit. The baseball has already landed and bounced outside the second baseman's defense range. Even if the second baseman flew and slammed the ball, Sawamura could still relax. Run to first base.

But unfortunately, people didn't do that but slapped the ball directly at teammates with gloves.

This is not something ordinary people can do.

And the teammates cooperated well, directly catching the ball and passing the first base.

This is not something that can be done overnight. Especially compared with the defense of Akagi, the Tenryuji is called the defense. Compared with others, Akagi's defense is a little better than wooden stakes.

"Pop!"

The defense is neat and neat, not like an ordinary middle school student at all. It's just that Sawamura's response was also fast. The moment the ball was hit, he didn't delay at 0.01 seconds, and ran to first base at a rapid pace, almost synchronizing with the pass.

Another ambiguous ball?

The referee at first base was about to cry. This kind of hitting and blocking at the same time seems to be a lot in a game. In this game, before the first game was over, there were two appearances.

How is this still playing?

No matter if he hits base or doesn't hit the base, in the end, some people say he is a shady man. Now is not the beginning of the competition, and Akagi is no longer a penniless small team. Feeling a little aggrieved, he can only hold back.

In the audience, including "Baseball Boys", at least four or five media were there.

Once they feel that the game is unfair, they will not be polite.

The qualification battle of the Kanto Conference, the last one. In such a game, any penalty must be extremely cautious.

"Safe!"

Last time, he sentenced Tenryuji to safe on base, but this time he reciprocated, why did he want to help Akagi?

No one was out, there was someone at first base.

Sawamura let out a long sigh of relief, and honestly put his foot on the base bag. He seemed to cherish this time.

Sawamura was also taken aback. He played the ball just now, obviously well, but he didn't expect that he would land a thrilling hit in the end.

The guys from Tenryuji Middle School also reacted too fast. Just looking at the garrison, they are already very close to the level of a high school and a strong school. This is very rare in high school.

It was because of his experience that Sawamura knew better. High school baseball and Middle school baseball are two completely different worlds. Except for some top players, it is difficult for ordinary people to keep up with the rhythm of high school games.

"The more this is the case, the more we can't let go of this chance to hit the base, and we must score points anyway."

"Second, first baseman, Oda Kazuto."

This time, Akagi's second hit is Oda.

On the pitcher's mound, Nanami's face was very calm, as calm as a clear spring, crystal clear.

Just now, his most proud breaking ball was hit.

In Nanami Haruna's impression, this was the first time someone could hit his decisive ball solidly. Even in the country, he has never had such an experience in the face of those famous players.

Nanami thought about using his breaking ball to give Sawamura a blow. Unexpectedly, instead, he was beaten in the face, and he was beaten so hard.

"Hmph, interesting. So this is Sawamura Eijun?"

Sawamura has subverted Nanami Haruna's worldview, and it is precisely because of this subversion that Nanami Haruna, who has not had many pursuits in baseball, rekindled his competitiveness in baseball.

Genius, it is only by colliding with each other that they can promote each other's growth.

"Whoosh!"

Next, Nanami Haruna's pitch was full of explosive power. Although somewhat primitive, it is also powerful.

Oda felt that his swing couldn't keep up with Nanami's pitching.

At first base, Sawamura also realized this. Nanami Haruna's pitch seems to have evolved. Although it looks a little primitive and not stable, it feels stronger than his previous pitch.

"If it goes on like this, there is no chance at all."

After Sawamura realized this, he immediately changed his strategy. He left the bag at first base and made his way to second base.

First baseman Hirano, catcher Hattori, and noticed Sawamura's change, and they used their secret signal to notify Nanami Haruna on the pitcher's mound.

Nanami glanced at Sawamura at the first base. At this time, Sawamura was already three or four meters away from the base.

Do you want to distract my attention by stealing bases?

Innocent!

Thinking, Nanami Haruna passed the ball to first base.

Sawamura flew to first base in sync.

"Safe!"

First baseman Hirano returned the ball to Nanami Haruna. At this time, they were more certain that Sawamura left the base to distract Nanami Haruna.

Now that they understand Sawamura's intentions, they naturally don't care about Sawamura anymore but concentrate on solving Oda.

On the next ball, Nanami threw the ball, and Sawamura got up and ran to the second base without waiting for Nanami Haruna to throw the ball.

"Bang!"

After Hattori received the ball, his nose was almost crooked, and Sawamura looked down on people too much. You say that you want to be fast, and that's all you need to steal bases. You are slow like a tortoise, and you still learn to be handsome.

"Looking for death!"

Hattori got up and passed the ball to second base.

At this time, the shortstop had already filled to second base. After he received the ball, he directly touched Sawamura with his glove.

At this time, Sawamura slipped and fell.

This timing, very coincidentally, happened to avoid the gloves of the Tenryuji shortstop.

"Safe!"

No one was out, there was someone at second base.

Next, the development of things is just like a matter of course. Oda bunts Sawamura to third base, and Ren bunts Sawamura back to home base.

In this semi-final, Akagi Middle School took the lead in scoring the first point.

The total score was 1:0, and Akagi took the lead.
