Chapter 17: For The Team

When Miyuki scored a home run, everyone in the rest area of ​​Seidou High School, including Coach Kataoka and Coach Ochiai, breathed a sigh of relief!

Although as early as the score was 3:0, they had already determined that they could win this game. However, the game is not over yet, no one can guarantee what kind of changes will happen on the field.

But after seeing Miyuki scoring those two points, everyone in Seidou High School felt at ease.

5:0!

Even if Sawamura's legs are cramping and his body is twitching, Seidou High School is sure to win this game.

In fact, Coach Kataoka was already considering a replacement right now.

Adjust Sawamura to the outfield, and then switch pitcher other to the mound.

It's just that he hasn't figured out who to replace in yet.

In fact, there is no need to worry, Sawamura is not in the way of throwing another inning or two.

After all, in the next inning, Seidou High School will have to face the core lineup of Konan High School.

Sawamura was much more reassuring on the mound right now than other pitchers were on the mound.

But also changed when Sawamura hit a home run!

The total score was 6:0.

Almost all of the audience cheered for Seidou High School!

At this moment, Seidou High School seemed to be in its home field.

"Seidou!"

"Seidou!!"

"Demon King!"

"Demon King!"

The second half of the fourth inning is not over yet, and Seidou High School's lead has been extended to six points. The most terrifying thing is that the batters at Seidou High School seem to have the knack of hitting Torajiro's pitch.

Otherwise, their sixth, and seventh batters will not hit consecutive home runs.

In the rest area of ​​Konan High School, Superintendent Mukai, was not able to see a way out of this.

Although the game is not over yet, he has already foreseen the end.

This game is probably over.

Through the previous inning, they deeply knew the horror of Sawamura's pitching. It is difficult if you want to win three points, let alone six points from that guy's hands.

'Looks like this game is done!'

There are few people who hold the same thoughts as Coach Mukai.

In the rest area of ​​the entire Konan High School, they already preparing for the loss.

On the Press Box.

Owada Akiko flipped through last year's report on Konan High School on her mobile phone.

In summer, the tyrants of the Kyushu Tournament!

Okinawa Konan, the country's top giants.

"I didn't expect that just one year later, the former national hegemon was bullied like this."

Looking up, she saw a huge gap in the score on the electronic scoreboard.

Owada Akiko said very emotionally.

"No one of the teams in Koshien can occupy the quarter-finals or the semi-finals for a long time. Not to mention the championship and runner-up!

Although the lottery can't be said to be absolutely fair, it is still fair in the big picture. This got a lot of tyrants eliminated in the first round.

Like Konan High School, if they hadn't met Seidou High School at the beginning of the tournament, they probably wouldn't have stopped in the first round.

There are also many champion teams, who just won the championship, but didn't even win the regional qualifier in the year after."

High school baseball is not that simple.

Konan High School, the main force that once won the national hegemony, has been hit so hard in the first game.

The players who remain now are no different from players from other teams. After all, it was not them who once won the national hegemony.

Ping!

After being hit consecutive home runs, Torajiro was slightly distracted. Shiratsu didn't let go of this good opportunity to beat the distracted pitcher. Taking advantage of his distraction, he found the opportunity and won the hit.

One Out, runner at first base!

Although Shiratsu's hits are somewhat unassuming, however, the development of this situation has made the fans of Seidou High School see the hope of expanding the score.

Maybe in this game, they will completely defeat Konan.

"Come on! Come on!"

"Just like this, end the opponent in one go."

"The pitcher has panicked, and he must make persistent efforts!"

The audience in the stands kept clamoring.

Sakai, who was about to step into the strike zone, clenched the bat in his hand tightly, and his eyes flashed decisively.

For this time, he must prove his skills to the coach.

"Notice of changing players from Seidou High School, batting ninth, Furuya-kun, entering the stage."

In the rest area of ​​Seidou High School, Kataoka, who had been ready to make a move now, finally couldn't bear it any longer and started to act!

He didn't wait for the start of the fifth inning and made his move directly in the bottom half of the fourth inning.

Furuya Satoru replaces Sakai Ichirou and heads to the strike zone!

Furuya Satoru, who was on the field, went opposite Sakai, who was returning to the rest area.

Sakai opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but looking at Furuya's innocent expression, he didn't say anything in the end.

Furuya nodded to Sakai, and then resolutely walked to the strike zone.

After Sakai returned to the rest area, he saw Kataoka walking towards him.

"Good job!"

Coach Kataoka patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly.

This remark made Sakai very emotional.

Actually, he knew it.

In order to let the team go further, in order to ensure that there are as few mistakes as possible in the game. As an Ace pitcher, Sawamura will definitely stay on the field.

Even if a pitcher replaces him in the process, he will have to stay on the field.

Just like now, after Furuya steps to the field, he will definitely be adjusted to the pitching mound.

It's just that Sakai didn't expect that Coach Kataoka would replace him with Furuya when he was attacking.

He also didn't expect that the person who rotated Sawamura and let Sawamura rest was not Tanpa, but Furuya!

In fact, it was not only him who was puzzled by this.

'A replacement? Now?'

'And it's a first grade at that!'

After being stunned for a moment, the catcher of Konan High School barely remembered who Furuya Satoru was.

For this, no one can really blame him.

Because of Sawamura's brilliance, Furuya, who is a monster, is not as famous as in the original book.

Many people don't know him.

When it comes to Sawamura's relief pitcher at Seidou High School, most people think of Tanpa, not Furuya.

'Does they look down on us?'

The huge score difference of 6:0 has already made the players of Konan High School lose their spirit of reversing the game.

Right now, they saw that Seidou High School had replaced the substitute, especially knowing that this substitute, was very likely the pitcher instead of Sawamura.

The catcher of Konan High School is excited!

It is very shameless to say this, but if the pitcher of Seidou is Sawamura, the possibility of Konan High School's reversal and scoring is almost equal to zero.

But Seidou High School has changed pitchers, so they can't say for sure!

'Let's teach this Kohai who just came on the field a lesson.'

The quiet catcher of Konan High School immediately gave a sign to his pitcher.

Torajiro on the mound is also in a very strange state.

He was beaten by Seidou High School for consecutive home runs and abused over and over again.

Instead of being dispirited, the pitcher has more fighting spirit!
