Chapter 93: Semifinals
On Saturday, the weather is sunny.
A fierce baseball game is going on at Tokyo Shrine Stadium.
Both sides of the game are the Nishi Tokyo Seido High School Baseball Team and the TōTOKI Affiliated High School Baseball Team, which stood out in the Spring Competition.
As an affiliated university, you can hear it by listening to this name. The other party is an affiliated high school of the university. Moreover, Tokyo University of Technology itself is very famous in the world and is a super-famous university that can enter the top 100.
As a high school affiliated to the University of Technology, the University of Technology is naturally a key high school. In name, this high school is public, but Tokyo University of Technology is a private university.
So don’t think that the affiliated university of Technology is a school that is established by the capital, but think that they have no money and are not strong.
It's really not.
The affiliated team of ITO is one of the very competitive teams in Dongdong. Last year, I also played the Dongdong finals with Didong.
In the end, he lost by three points.
All in all, the strength is very good.
For this game, the Seidou High School baseball team naturally made some preparations.
But at the beginning of the game, they were tricked by their opponents. As the starter, Kawakami was beaten one after another by the opponent.
Although Yuyu called for a timeout and tried to help Kawakami adjust his condition, they still lost a point in the end.
At the beginning of the game, Seido High School baseball team fell behind their opponents by one point.
Although for the Seidou High School Baseball team, the strongest playing line in the country, the one-point gap is almost negligible.
But this is a bad start after all.
This is not a good sign!
In the stands, the hardcore supporters who came to cheer for the Seidou High School baseball team were originally confident that the team won the victory of this game.
Judging from the difficulties that Seido High School baseball team has overcome before, if they want to pose a threat to Seido High School baseball team, they must at least be rich or teams with wealthy level strength.
For example, Daocheng, or the previous pharmacist.
If the other party does not have the strength of this level, it would be a dream to challenge the Seidou High School baseball team.
Although the strength of the high school baseball teams affiliated to the University of Technology is not bad, they can advance to the semi-finals. Everyone can see that strength is certainly a very important reason, but it also has luck.
If they met other wealthy families in advance, it would be difficult to get here.
Before the game, the hardcore supporter of the Seido High School baseball team once selected all the players from both teams and made a paper assessment.
The result of the assessment is that the other party is completely unqualified to pose a threat to the Seidou High School baseball team.
There may be some minor twists and turns in this game, but the final result will not change.
The hardcore fans of Seidou High School baseball team have internal communication groups. In the internal communication groups, these topics have been posted online for discussion.
In the end, even fans who were not die-hard supporters of Seido High School baseball team kept nodding after reading their analysis.
There is no way, the gap in strength between the two sides is still quite obvious.
Seidou High School Baseball Team, strictly speaking, does not have any weaknesses.
Especially after Zhang Han shot a speed ball of light of more than 155 kilometers, everyone believes that the current Seido High School baseball team is likely to be the strongest in the past seven or eight years.
Even if they meet their stalemate, Inamori Kazumaki, they all have a high chance of winning.
Affiliated to the University of Technology, which onion is considered?
But at the beginning of the game, the cruel reality slapped everyone in the face.
The high school baseball team affiliated to the University of Technology was not timid at all. Especially under their command of supervising Ito, the players were very well-organized when attacking.
If it weren't for the second baseman of Seido High School baseball team's excellent performance, he would use his body to block the baseball that was about to fly out.
In the first half of the first game, maybe the affiliates of the University of Technology won two points in one breath.
Fortunately, with the wonderful performance of Konoko Ryosuke, the Seidou High School baseball team was able to survive the crisis smoothly.
But the score is still behind.
Score 1:0.
Kawakami was a little nervous. He was very uncomfortable when he was the starting pitcher for the first time and did not even use 80% of his strength.
This also made Supervisor Kataoka more determined his previous thoughts.
New pitchers must be selected.
Kawakami obviously hadn't come out of the haze of the touch ball before, and he didn't even dare to shoot the stretching ball that he was best at.
Such Kawakami can still play some role when facing ordinary opponents. But once he faces those opponents who are also wealthy families, it may be difficult for him to stop the opponent's attack.
If there is only one pitcher like this, Kataoka can still hold on.
The problem is that the ace in their team also has similar problems. Once they encounter strong opponents, they will be chased by the opponent.
Often, they make some particularly low-level mistakes.
The current Seido High School baseball team is centered on the strong baseball team because of Yukichi and Zhang Han.
Their requirements for pitchers are actually not that high.
But at least, you must show strong enough fighting spirit and be able to hold on at critical moments.
Otherwise, if the pitcher is a funnel, it will be difficult for them to win the game even if other players from the Seido High School baseball team score more points.
With Zhang Han's pitching greatly restricted, Qingdao is now in urgent need of new pitchers.
For some reason, Kataoka remembered the boy he saw last night.
I have been practicing running during the day, and sometimes I run with my tires, and my body is obviously very tired.
But the young man never gave up from beginning to end. Even after the training, he would take the initiative to practice pitching after the training.
Although it's just a first grade, maybe there is something that Danbo and the others lack the most.
The game came to the second half of the inning.
Although the Seido High School baseball team was slapped in the face at the beginning, both their own players and fans in the stands.
They all firmly believe that Seido High School baseball team can save the situation on the court. They will definitely overtake the score, and it will be very fast.
After all, Seido High School baseball team is the best in the country.
Even Daocheng, who has Seungrimiya, was unable to block the crazy attack of Seido High School baseball team.
In the second half of the inning, Seido High School baseball team attacked.
"First stick, shortstop, Yoichi Kurachi."
The first to stand in the attack area was still the Scud and shortstop of the Seidou High School baseball team.
Because Kurachi didn't perform much in the last game, he performed extremely positively in this game.
Kurata's main position has just stabilized, and if he still can't achieve good results in this game.
Then the next final will likely be a substitution.
Chapter completed!
