Chapter 143: Returning to Throne!

The small white ball, like a sudden bullet, caught Inajitsu's eighth batter by surprise.

SNAP!

"STRIKE!"

In the strike zone, Inajitsu's eighth batter looked extremely calm.

It felt as if he deliberately let go of the first ball and chose to observe the path of the ball.

Of course, the real situation is not the case.

He did not have the right timing to swing at all.

Inajitsu's eighth batter's expression became strange.

Unexpectedly, after facing Sawamura's pitching for the second time, he was still so uncomfortable.

In this case, it is too difficult to hit Sawamura's ball accurately.

In the position of the catcher, Miyuki was keenly aware of the hesitation of the eighth batter of Inajitsu.

'He is so confused!'

Facing Sawamura's Wall-Making Form, the Batter will be extremely uncomfortable, and this discomfort is even directly reflected on his face.

This discovery made Miyuki inexplicably relieved.

'It turns out that not everyone in Inashiro is a monster!'

'Well, it is not like you can just hit off Sawamura just because you can work with his pitching form."

Whoosh!

The sharp white ball whistled and slid straight into the inner corner of the zone.

Facing this sharp ball, Inajitsu's eighth batter had no choice but to swing the bat!

The power of the swing is very strong, but it never touches the ball.

The small white ball avoided the bat and got into Miyuki's open Mitt.

SNAP!

"STRIKE!"

Such a one-sided confrontation, even the audience can see the difference.

"Strange, why the batter of Inajitsu did not hit the ball?"

"Right? It is the sixth inning already!"

"That's normal, after all, this is the Demon-King Sawamura!"

"Demon King!"

"Demon King!!!"

Originally, many people cheered for Sawamura or Seidou.

As Sawamura scored Outs, the audience went crazy. Later, not many people shouted other slogans, and everyone shouted Demon King in unison.

The sound of more than 10,000 people made the entire Jingu Stadium tremble.

"Amazing!"

Many reporters turned their cameras to Sawamura.

In this West Tokyo final, Sawamura was not the only player who performed well, but all the support in the audience involuntarily fell to Sawamura!

In this game, he is the real big star.

In pitching, Inajitsu players only scored a not-so-beautiful base steal.

At-bat, played three times and hit two hits.

On the defense, he received the ball several times and successfully blocked Inashiro's offensive.

As the Ace player of a team, right now, There is only one word left in everyone's evaluation of Sawamura.

Perfect.

"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"

As if in response, the audience cheered. Sawamura's pitching became more and more fierce and used a Straight Fastball to directly solve the eighth batter of Inajitsu.

This strikeout greatly affected the audience at the scene.

They cheered for Sawamura even louder!

Now not only the supporters of Seidou High School, but also The members of the Brotherhood of Red Heart and the Demon-King's Guard, even the former neutral fans, are also one-sidedly supporting Sawamura!

The cheers of tens of thousands of people filled the entire Jingu Stadium.

In the rest area of ​​Inajitsu.

"The situation has been pulled over by that stinky brat!"

Narumiya Mei glanced at the score on the electronic scoreboard very unwillingly.

1:0!

The score hasn't changed, it's still a one-point difference.

This point is so heavy.

The players of Inajitsu were overwhelmed, and they were a little Out of breath!

"Damn!"

Narumiya Mei clenched his fists unwillingly, and stared fiercely at Sawamura on the pitcher's mound!

Two years have passed since the last time he played against Eijun.

Not only he did not fall behind, but he even chased after him.

Now his level cannot be taken lightly.

In the rest area of ​​the Inajitsu Team, there are many players with the same expression as Narumiya Mei.

They looked at Sawamura on the pitcher's mound fiercely, and it felt like they were going to eat Sawamura alive.

"STRIKE!"

"STRIKE!"

"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"

Immediately afterward, Inajitsu's ninth batter was also struck Out by Sawamura.

Sawamura, who is going all out now, is not an opponent that Inajitsu lower line can deal with!

Two Outs, no one on base.

And the two Outs were all strikeouts.

"First Batter, Center, Kamiya-kun."

Right now, the Inajitsu lineup finished the second round, and it was the turn of Carlos, who was the first.

When he went to the box, the players and supporters of Inajitsu immediately boiled!

After all, this is Inajitsu's first batter in the lineup, and it's the third time he dueled with Sawamura.

The result of their duel will definitely affect the direction of the next game.

Inashiro's supporters, of course, hope that Carlos will show something.

'Not so fast!'

But who is Miyuki?

In addition to being a talented catcher, he is also a very bad character.

After realizing that the players of Inajitsu pin their hopes on Carlos, he decisively gave Sawamura a sign.

First ball: Magic ball to the outside corner!

After dealing with Harada before, Sawamura's Magic ball has never been used.

Now unlocked again, the effect is easy to guess.

"STRIKE!"

"STRIKE!"

"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"

Carlos stared blankly at the ball in Miyuki's Mitt.

He should have hit the baseball just now, why did the white baseball suddenly disappear?

Inajitsu is in the rest area.

When Carlos made his last swing and miss.

A faint despair filled the rest area of ​​Inajitsu.

Not only Harada, but even Carlos can't hit Sawamura's pitching!

In this way, Inajitsu's hope of winning points from Sawamura is getting slim.

The score was 1:0.

As the game continues, Sawamura unlocks more and more of his skills.

By the second half of the sixth inning, Sawamura was recovering his reputation from his middle school days.

The reputation of the invincible Demon King!

Sawamura is solving Inajitsu's batters one after another.

"Demon King!"

"Demon King!!!"

While Sawamura was throwing the ball, the cheers of the demon king on the spot did not stop from beginning to end.

Now Sawamura is enjoying the treatment of a baseball star.

The reporters from the media kept taking pictures of Sawamura on the mound.

"Tsk!"

In the rest area of ​​Inajitsu, Mei's lungs were about to explode.

In this game, all the limelight was robbed by Eijun.

Of course, this wasn't what made Mei the most angry, what made him the most angry was the situation of the game.

Now the situation is more and more in favor of Seidou!

"It can't go on like this. The response has to be on the field."

In the first half of the seventh inning, Seidou High School attacked.

"Fourth Batter, first baseman, Yuuki-kun!"

Right now, the batter of Seidou High School was the turn of the fourth batter.

"Yuuki!"

"Seidou!"

"Smash it out!"

The audience who originally supported Seidou High School came to their senses right now.

They are at the same time, cheering for the Yuuki!

The situation on the field changed in an instant.

Speaking of which, this is indeed a good opportunity for Seidou High School.

Sawamura showed his extraordinary pitching ability, and now it is the players of Inajitsu when shaken.

If the players of Seidou can make persistent efforts and score points, That can definitely push Inajitsu down the abyss.

It doesn't need much, just one or two points is enough.

If the difference in the score is only one point, even in the ninth inning, the players of Inajitsu will never give up!

The difference of one point is too small, and a timely hit can completely change the direction of the game.

If they're lucky, they might even be able to complete the reversal with a single hit.

No matter how solid Sawamura's pitching is, one point is not guaranteed.

Now, it would be ideal to expand the score.

Once the gap in the score widens to two points or even more.

The players of Inajitsu will definitely be hit hard.

Until the sixth inning, the only thing they took from Sawamura was the stolen base of Carlos.

In addition to this stealing base, so far, Inajitsu has not had any Batters who have successfully hit the base.

In this case, the score is extended to two points.

They had to take at least three hits in a row from Sawamura.

Is it possible?

It may still be possible, but the hope is very slim.
