Chapter 31: Solidly

After Yuuki Tetsuya stood on the strike zone, the audience in the stands immediately burst into cheers.

They all felt that right now, Seidou High School is more likely to get hits.

"BALL!"

"BALL!"

"BALL!"

"BALL!"

"Walk to Base!!!"

Unfortunately, the battery of Yoshiyama High School has already felt this feeling too!

They were very strategic and Walked Tetsuya straight to the base.

One Out, runner at first and second base!

"BOOOOO!!!!"

"BOOOOOOOO!!!"

A very loud boo broke out in the stands immediately. The audience was very dissatisfied with Yoshiyama's battery's lack of courage.

In this regard, the catcher of Yoshiyama has already realized that none of this matters if they are already losing.

Shameless people will do whatever they want, and the opinion of the people will not affect them whatsoever.

To be honest, since the Ace was replaced, Shoya has never dealt with Yuuki once.

In this case, even if it is a head-to-head duel with Yuuki, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

But just think of the lightning-fast swing of Yuuki before. The catcher of Yoshiyama couldn't help but tremble.

Terrible!

If Yuuki hits the ball, even if he does not have good contact with the ball, who can stop a ball this fast?

Therefore, the catcher of Yoshiyama did not intend to give Yuuki a chance to hit at all.

"Fifth Batter, outfielder, Sawamura-kun."

After Yuuki, it was Sawamura who stood on the strike zone.

"Demon King!"

"Demon King!!!"

As if they were deliberately baiting the catcher of Yoshiyama, the clamor in the audience got louder.

'Let's see if you will walk him too.'

In fact, the catcher of Yoshiyama really had the urge to walk Sawamura.

Although Sawamura's sense of threat was not as strong as it was Yuuki's, after reading his information, they know that Sawamura's achievements in attack are very high in Seidou.

But if you Walk him too, the situation will be one Out, and bases are full…

After weighing it, the catcher of Yoshiyama High School did not choose to Walk Sawamura. Moreover, Sawamura is different from Yuuki, and when dueling with Yuuki, the catcher Yoshiyama has no hope of winning.

As if no matter what they do, the ball is bound to be hit in the end.

But it was different from dueling Sawamura, he could vaguely see the hope of winning.

Although this hope is not particularly great, it is better than nothing, and there is hope and there is value in fighting for it.

'Come on, believe me, Shoya.'

'Throw your pitching into my Mitt.'

On the strike zone, based on Sawamura's experience, he quickly sensed the opponent's desire for a head-to-head confrontation.

'They are treating me like a weak link!'

They didn't dare to confront Tetsu-san head-on, but they wanted to take the number of Out from him.

Sawamura felt that he was being underestimated.

He spread his feet completely apart, lowered his entire weight, and lifted the bat in his hand.

There is no need for a long hit, the most important thing is to hit the ball steadily. As long as you can get hits, just connect the lineup.

With his own responsibility clear, Sawamura stared at Shoya on the pitcher's mound without blinking.

Whoosh!

The white ball whizzed.

120 km/h ball speed! Although Sawamura and other batters at Seidou High School thought it was as slow as a crawling turtle, the ball was actually very fast. (74~80 mph)

It was just the blink of an eye, and the small white ball was in front of him.

Sawamura brutally swung his bat!

Ping!

After the white ball was hit, it fell straight to the ground.

This is another normal Straight ball!

Really bold.

Sawamura originally thought that the catcher who had just dealt with Isashiki with a Straight ball would never throw Straight balls in a row.

Did not expect the opponent to do that!

"A very strange brain circuit."

Silently complaining in his heart, Sawamura threw his bat away and ran to first base.

Although he did not expect Yoshiyama's catcher game-calling plan, it did not prevent him from hitting the ball to a good position. The small white ball landed next to the first baseman and went straight through.

The speed of this ball was much faster than the ball thrown by the pitcher before.

Like a white laser, the first baseman of Yoshiyama High School did not have time to stop it.

Behind the first baseman is a huge gap.

Sawamura got his wish and won the long hit!

Ryo-san, who was at second base, ran back to home plate in one breath, helping Seidou score the seventh point.

The captain also crossed second base and ran to third base.

On the contrary, Sawamura himself stopped at first base unhurriedly and did not move on.

One Out, runner at first and third base!

In the rest area of ​​Seidou, Isashiki moaned in disbelief: "This stinky brat has even improved in his swing!"

"The stance is so open, but the bat in his hand is in a long grip, just to increase the speed of his swing?"

Ryosuke was thinking about Sawamura's swing as he returned from home plate to the rest area.

To be honest, they really didn't know that Sawamura could even hit like this.

In the dugout, Coach Kataoka folded his arms and had a cold expression on his face, with sunglasses that looked particularly cold.

"Did you see Sawamura's hit?"

The players of Seidou nodded in unison, even though they didn't know why he asked.

"That's what I want! I don't need flashy hits or home runs. The most important thing is to hit the ball solidly!"

"Yes!"

In the second half of the seventh inning, Seidou High School led the score with 7:0.

And Seidou's attack was far from over.

The situation is one Out and runner at first and third base.

"Sixth Batter, third baseman, Masuko-kun."

"Ugaaah!"

Masuko stepped into the strike zone.

In the stands, the players from Seihou High School stood up one by one, preparing to leave.

For them, the result of this game is already obvious, and there is no need to continue watching.

Seidou High School is very strong!

And their strength is all-rounded.

In the pitcher position, there is the super rookie, the Maou Sawamura Eijun!

In the catcher position, both Chris and Miyuki are rare geniuses and good catchers.

The fielder's position, and the well-trained Iron Wall-like defense of Seidou, that is beyond the standard of a Famous School!

In the offensive strength, Seidou High School has an unstoppable fourth batter, as well as various other Batters…

In this way, Seidou's lineup is also the top in the country.

In terms of overall strength, the players from Seihou High School believed that Seidou High School was probably the most similar and closest team to them.

And both sides, there are also two of the four best Pitchers in this tournament.

At Seidou High School, there is the Captain of Steel Yuuki Tetsuya, and the Demon King Sawamura Eijun.

Seihou High School has a super monster Batter with 67 home runs, Sano Shuzo.

And one of the nation's best pitchers!

"The game is decided, we're going to warm up. "

After the match between Seidou High School and Kazuyoshi High School was over, the next match was between Seihou High School and Osaka Kiryuu.

They also have to do a warm-up preparation.

The Seihou players have left, and the game is drawing to a close.
