In the second half of the fourth inning, Seidou High School attacked.
"Sixth Batter, catcher, Miyuki-kun."
In this situation, Seidou High School not only could not slow down the attack but instead had to find the right opportunity to completely defeat Hirotaka High School.
"Don't embarrass us!"
Before Miyuki also went to the strike zone, Sawamura specifically told him.
In general, the battle between Miyuki and Chris's main catcher is now settled.
But in the mind of Coach Kataoka, because there are few more games for Chris to play, he may be more willing to hone Miyuki more, as everything is on and settled for Chris's career and all. It is precisely because of this preference that Miyuki can get so many playing opportunities after becoming a substitute.
The Coach is willing to give you all of these opportunities, as a player, you can't waste them, right?
If Miyuki can't show a good performance, he will really fail the painstaking efforts of Coach Kataoka.
"I know!" Miyuki nodded with a wry smile.
When Chris-senpai is standing in the position of the catcher, his role cannot only be reflected in being a catcher, but he also contributes is hitting.
It's just that his luck is too bad!
Twice in a row on the strike zone, all with no one on the base.
Under such circumstances, it was difficult for Miyuki to get a read on the opponents.
And the opponent is a Moving ball pitcher!
This kind of opponent also gave Miyuki a headache. Every good Batter has its own hitting style.
Miyuki's style is to guess the game calling.
Through their own understanding of baseball, they can guess the path, orientation, and break of the opponent's next Pitch.
This is Miyuki Kazuya's style.
The problem is that pitchers like the one in front of him don't even know how their pitches will break.
How does this make him guess?
"I'm really not good at dealing with such an opponent!"
Ping!
After the small white ball was hit, it bounced directly to the ground and landed in the Mitt of the first baseman.
SNAP!
"OUT!"
One Out, no one hits base.
"Seventh batter, pitcher, Sawamura-kun."
Another round of warm cheers erupted from the stands. Each time Sawamura stepped into the batting box, the cheers from the crowd grew particularly loud and spirited.
Sawamura had long been accustomed to such an atmosphere. He walked onto the strike zone calmly, staring at Kosuke on the pitcher's mound.
'So will he choose to face me next?' Sawamura asked in his mind.
Kosuke Ishizue has a lot of fighting spirit from dealing with these star players of Seidou High School in a row, and it is likely that he will take on this momentum and face off against Sawamura.
If that was the case, Sawamura could not ask for more.
In fact, Sawamura guessed right.
Kosuke Ishizue, having already given his all and fully entered the Zone, will certainly not miss the chance to confront Sawamura.
Ping!
As soon as the white ball entered his hand, Sawamura slapped it rudely with his bat.
After the ball was hit, it landed in the defensive gap.
Sawamura crossed first base and ran to second base in one breath without stopping.
One Out, runner at second base.
After hitting a home run in the first attack round, he also hit a double in the second round.
Among all the batters at Seidou High School, Sawamura is the best performer so far.
The fans in the stands will naturally not miss this opportunity to build momentum for Sawamura. They seemed to be crazy, shouting Sawamura's name and nickname.
On the second base, Sawamura's face was not light.
When he hit just now, he originally thought of taking another home run and completely defeating Kosuke Ishizue.
But when the bat really touched the white ball, Sawamura knew what he was thinking wrong, and he underestimated this pitcher.
Kosuke Ishizue's pitching not only made the Moving ball appear sharper, but even the power of the ball was no trivial matter.
But luckily, he hit base.
And it's second base!
'As long as it works well, it's not entirely hopeless that he gets extra points in this inning.'
Of course, All of this requires careful planning. Fortunately, the players from Hirotaka High School have almost given up on the competition.
Sawamura planned to win additional points, but the resistance he encountered was not great.
…
Hirotaka High School, which was behind Seidou High School by four points, did not give up the game.
Perhaps it was the natural magic on the Koshien field that made them unwilling to leave the field like this or maybe some other reason.
In short, they did not stop resisting and did not give up the game.
Sawamura, aware of this, hit second base in order to help the team push the advantage and give more opportunities to his teammates to rest for the next.
One Out, runner at second base.
In such a situation, the eighth batter of Seidou High School, Shiratsu, came on the field.
There are runners at second base, and the batter is the steady Shiratsu.
For Hirotaka High School, this situation is definitely not favorable. If it weren't for the fact that they were already many points behind, the situation could even be called a crisis now.
Seidou High School has a very high chance to get a point.
It is often said that the straw that broke the camel's back was the last straw, but in baseball, no one knows what the straw is.
As the offensive side, they can only try to expand the score, and stab more straws in the camel's back, and break it as early as possible.
As for showing mercy, that is after making sure that the camel's back is totally broken and cannot move anymore.
If there is a team that shows mercy before that, then they are asking for a good beating.
And one Out, a runner at second base. The attacking side can easily get points.
In this situation, Seidou has a lot of tactics to choose from!
The batter can hit normally or bunt and walk, and can even hit and run with the runner.
On the other hand, the same goes for runners.
He can choose to steal bases, he can choose to stand still, annoy and distract the pitcher, and he can even choose to cooperate with the batter.
All in all, none of this is a problem.
The attacking side has so many options to choose from. As the defending side, it is not easy to find out the intention of the attacking side.
Especially the Ace pitcher Kosuke of Hirotaka High School, his choices are even more pitiful.
Now, he relies on the characteristics of the Moving ball as his main weapon. But it also limits his flexibility.
Once you rely on Moving balls, it is difficult to flexibly switch to other balls. And once you switch to other balls, it is difficult to ensure the characteristics of the Moving ball.
Not everyone is Sawamura. It is impossible for an ordinary high school student to use it flexibly.
So his choice is simple, just use the Moving ball.
It's already like this, of course, they don't mind taking a gamble with Seidou High School.
