Chapter 376: I don't want to pitch anymore, I want to be quiet
The catcher of the Holy Light jumped up and looked at the soaring baseball. He couldn't help but curse his mother. He felt like he was playing with a bunch of lunatics.
A magic straight-ball pitcher with a 160-speed pitch, and a part-time power bat, along with a girl who can hit baseballs like stars. Are these here to play in high school games? Are you here to film an idol drama?!
Under his watch, the ball hit by Kitahara Shuji flew very high, which gave the outfielder enough time. He even ran to the ball and waited a moment before catching the baseball at the end of the outfield.
Kitahara Shuji moved his arms and looked from a distance, recalling the feeling of hitting the ball just now. He did not hit the center of the ball. As a result, the ball flew too high. Otherwise, he would have completed the home run in the first at-bat of the official game.
.
Pity……
He stood there feeling regretful. The referee called out but he didn't pay attention. He could only pat him lightly and said again: "You are out!"
Kitahara Shuji was caught by the center fielder of the Holy Lights, and he should have gone back to prepare as a pitcher to start fielding. But at this time, there was warm applause from the center bench behind him, and someone was taking pictures of him with a mobile phone. Everyone agreed.
He has the ability to hit a home run, which is definitely a strong bat, and he is also a giant pitcher who has kept opponents scoreless and allowed no hits or runs. This is even more rare and must be taken as a souvenir.
At the end of the second game, the score was still 2:0.
Kitahara Shuji was driven out of the strike zone, rubbed his arms and walked to the bullpen. He thought to himself that he would try again with his skills activated next time. He should be able to hit more accurately. The strength must be enough. The reason why he didn't fly into the audience just now was because
The attack is too high, but I activated my skills and used all my strength, which is similar to Xueli when she is angry and uses all her firepower!
So in normal times, Xueli's strength is actually nearly 40% higher than hers? She already has top-notch physical fitness among her peers, and she still wants to be so much stronger than herself?
Fortunately, her growth seems to have stopped, but this is still embarrassing. She can't domestically abuse me after marriage, right? In case of domestic violence against me, I have to hold her down! What should I do?
He returned to the bullpen worriedly, handed back the bat, took the glove, and headed to the pitcher's mound. Suzuki Nozomi saw something wrong with his face, so she quickly came over, held his arm, squeezed it, and asked with concern: "I see you
I'm rubbing one, is there any discomfort?"
Kitahara Shuji did not hide anything: "I feel a little uncomfortable in my shoulders and elbows, but it doesn't matter."
Is it the impact of throwing at full strength? Noki Suzuki couldn't help but frown and analyze. To throw the ball at a fast speed, of course you need strong explosive power, and explosive power is the work of fast-twitch muscle fibers. As long as the muscles work, lactic acid will of course be produced, and it takes a long time to break down the lactic acid.
She was very happy with Kitahara Shuji lingering there after throwing the ball, and she even wished she could rush onto the court to give him oxygen.
It's just that the muscles are fine, but the ligaments are not.
In this Koshien arena, relying on one pitcher to conquer the world, there are many cases where the pitcher is useless in the end. Basically, it is a joint ligament problem, but it cannot be done without Kitahara Shuji. The private Daifuku bench has no depth, Shimoda Teru
I have been practicing with Yuma Uchida as a relay shooting team for a year, and my level has improved slightly. I can hold up one shot in ordinary games, but when I play against a team of Koshien's main draw level, I will basically be beaten.
Suzuki Nozomi thought about it again and again, and could only warn: "Don't throw the ball with all your strength continuously. There is no need to care about face. There are many bad balls in the middle. Take this opportunity to rest, or it doesn't matter if you put one or two people on base. As long as
Just keep your score under control.”
"Let's try our best for this game first. If it doesn't work, we can talk about it later. At most, I won't hit the ball." Kitahara Shuji discussed.
Suzuki Noki straightened his baseball cap and the collar of his baseball shirt. After thinking about it, he said softly: "Okay, but don't force yourself. Even if the Shuangtian combination is changed, I can still deal with them."
, we already have an advantage."
She was trying to relieve the pressure on Hideji Kitahara. If the combination of Shimoda and Uchida were to be changed, there would be a high chance that they would lose points continuously, so they would have to fight with the opponent, but nine times out of ten they would kneel down.
Kitahara Hideji understood in his heart, but smiled and said: "I know my body well, at least I will have no problem finishing this game, but I will be careful."
He played cheats today and was injured but still completely suppressed the Holy Light. He must win, otherwise Xueli will be attacked even more fiercely after the game.
In competitions, whoever wins will always have the louder voice!
After he came on the court, he was still full of firepower, and the ball speed was stable above 160. The Holy Light also had a lot of experience and judged his ball path. He had habitual movements when pitching, and the pitch was not entirely a fast straight ball.
When the ball leaves his hand, his fingers will inadvertently give the ball a downward force. Although it is very small, when it enters the strike zone, the ball will suddenly drop, but in the human retina, the ball is still flying straight.
It's just that... with the help of the camera, the judgment was made, but the ball speed of 160 has entered the professional first-class range, and the high school student of Holy Light still cannot hit it. Moreover, after analyzing the nine balls, it was found that Kitahara Shuji's pitching technique is
There is really a flaw. The moment he throws the ball, sometimes his middle finger touches, sometimes his index finger touches, and sometimes his middle finger and index finger touch together. As a result, the trajectory of the ball looks the same, but after entering the strike zone, the drop range is different, and sometimes
It will also change direction.
His ball is extremely difficult to hit, which makes people speechless.
Holy Light has studied it, but in the first half of the third inning, the offense still failed to score a single point, and three people were struck out again. The number of spectators in the center free seats gradually increased, and the cameras were set up at some point. Look.
When Hideji Kitahara pitched violently and struck out nine people in three innings, his emotions were even more exciting. There was a huge difference in level in regional competitions. This situation was not uncommon, but it was different now. Sacred Light was at the level of Koshien, and this person suppressed the opponent's entire bat.
Line, I can only say it is amazing.
One to nine sticks of sacred light, a complete line, forced Kitahara Shuji to shave his head.
However, Holy Light still did not give up on-site research. It still conducted analysis under the leadership of the recorder. It believed that there must be some kind of pattern in Kitahara Shuji's pitching. Otherwise, how could the female catcher be able to catch the ball accurately every time? This makes no sense.
!
This is a college game. This kind of ball speed should make continuous mistakes!
They even sent someone to change the angle and observe if there was anything special about Xueli's code. It turned out that Xueli was clenching his fists from beginning to end. Was he conveying information through the speed of clenching his fists? The other party was so careful and careful.
?
Holy Light was completely stunned by Private Daifuku. They didn't know anything about Private Daifuku's team. Even their names were copied from the official website. And they didn't dare to give Private Daifuku another chance to score. They made continuous substitutions.
I no longer think about training new players, but first win the game. All the main players from the first team competing in Koshien will appear.
In a baseball game, as long as you are on the roster, there is no limit to the number of substitutions, but the person you substitute cannot play and is considered a failure.
This time they were prepared for the base-stealing tactic. Although Suzuki Noki only allowed two bats to try to steal the base, and played the first and third bats as usual, trying to get through and put another person on base, it only caused a little confusion to the opponent, and the opponent cooperated really well.
It was a tacit understanding, the defense was very tight, and one, two, and three bats were all eliminated one after another.
The game suddenly became intense, and the Holy Light made it clear that they did not want Daifuku to score any more points. 2 points is not difficult to catch in a baseball game, and they showed the level of playing in the main game, but Kitahara Shuji and Yuki immediately returned the favor, and they were perfect again.
The offensive line of Holy Light was suppressed, and they couldn't even hit a base, let alone score.
The score became anxious at 2:0. In the second half of the fourth inning, it was Private Daifuku's turn to attack. Xueli took the bat and went on the court. This time she calmed down and became cheerful again. It was difficult to stay angry for long.
After hitting a home run, she felt like she had taught someone who dared to insult her a lesson, and now it was her game time.
She is actually the real happy baseball fan, but she has strength, so she can be really happy, but Kitahara Shuji is still angry for her...
This time Yukiri no longer stared at Hasao with predatory eyes, but just concentrated on preparing to play ball seriously. She never played the touch style, she just hit with all her strength and hit as far as she could, otherwise she wouldn't be called Japan.
Hao beats the king.
But the pressure on Haseo was not much less. He felt that he would be the first pitcher to be beaten by a girl in the Koshien tournament... Actually, forget it, he went down in history and became the first pitcher to be beaten by a girl in the Koshien tournament.
As a pitcher who hit home runs, if Yukiri really enters the Koshien game, he will definitely be brought out by the commentator as a foil.
He now regards Xueli as the strongest enemy in his life, and he exerts 100% of his strength. He doesn't even ask Xueli to miss the ball he throws, but only wants to control the landing point in the infield. He doesn't want to strike out her at all, just wants to
Just rely on the team's strength to drive her out.
He directed the shortstop to move to the first base side, and then threw a very clever inside corner slider, hoping that Xueli would hit a ground ball in the infield close to first base, so that the first baseman and shortstop could hit Xueli or smother it.
killed.
However, when Xueli saw the ball that was too close to her body and was difficult to exert force on, she still did not hesitate to hit the ball as far as she could!
Her pupils shrank, and for a moment she seemed to have sucked away all the light around her. She took a step back slightly, and then used a strange posture to knock the ball away far away. She then slashed backwards, using a knife. This knife could
Cut the person from the crotch to the shoulder and let the intestines flow out directly.
This time the ball didn't turn into a star, but it had the same effect as Kitahara Shuji's near home run, flying extremely high. The three outfielders of the Holy Light rushed to the landing point of the ball, but soon saw the ball at the end of the outfield.
There were walls and protective nets, and Hideji Kitahara's one almost fell into the auditorium, and Yukiri's one almost fell into the stadium.
100% batting average, two swings, two home runs.
In the second half of the fourth game, Private Dafu scored another point, with a total score of 3:0.
Coach Shengguang really has the feeling that I am going to die. I never thought that Daifuku, a private company who was promoted through suspension, secretly got this monster from somewhere. No wonder they are crazy and want to let this female monster compete. They have to change it.
He, he also wants to try to send this girl to the arena.
He occasionally watches the news, but he has never seen this monster before! Does it grow out of the ground?
On the pitcher's mound, Hasao's self-confidence collapsed, and he no longer cared about being the captain. He waved and asked for a reliever to come on. He felt that he could not face Yuri's next pitch, and he suddenly didn't even want to pitch.
He wanted to be quiet.
Holy Light felt that this game was unwinnable. Private Daifuku had a huge stick on offense and huge shots on defense. It was impeccable, but of course it was impossible to admit defeat, and if you wanted to win, you had to score. Holy Light's coach also began to use touch tactics.
This caused an uproar in the Holy Light support bench. We have one of the best lineups in Aichi Prefecture, but we were suppressed by the opponent like this?
After all, the Koshien tournament is not a professional baseball game. You still need blood and courage. Do you dare not face a head-on confrontation? But the supporters of the Holy Light were completely surprised and did not oppose the 160 ball speed. What can be done if they can't win? Is it just that?
Do you lose the game if you miss it continuously?
However, Noki Suzuki had already taken precautions, and directly gave up the outfield, pressing forward collectively, with the shortstop, third baseman, and first baseman controlling both sides, leaving the front to Kitahara Shuji and Yuki, directly filling the infield.
Xiu Xue and his team have practiced together on how to attack the base-stealing tactics. Especially Xueri, her reaction is very fast, and her control range is far beyond that of ordinary catchers. The moment the opponent hits the ball, she seems to know where the ball is going, as fast as the wind.
, the bulky protective gear on his body seems to be fake, and he moves very fast using his hands and feet together.
As long as she grabs the ball, she will pass it to Hideji Kitahara who is blocking the opponent. Hideji Kitahara will release his strength and then pass it to the corresponding defensive teammate or simply take the ball himself to hit the opponent's batter.
Holy Light was shocked to discover the fact that they couldn't even run away from these two monsters, and that the monsters were in love with each other, and there was no mistake in their cooperation.
They couldn't beat Hideji Kitahara and couldn't score points, but they couldn't stop Yuki from scoring. Finally, when Yuki took the next seat, in order to keep the last point, what if Hideji Kitahara ran out of energy? Even if they scored 4 points in the last game,
It's not impossible that they refused to let Xueli have another chance to hit a home run. They just walked Xueli to first base, which meant that they didn't give Xueli a chance to hit the ball. They threw four consecutive strikes.
A ball that is very far away from the zone is considered a surrender by the pitcher and respectfully invites Xueli to get on base.
The audience was even more uproar. Not to mention professional baseball, Koshien now has a four-bad walk tactic, but if you use it, you will be criticized. It hurts the hearts of the supporters and they don't dare to pitch in a duel? Where is the courage?
Xueli successfully reached first base, but she was very disappointed. She raised her head and looked at the bullpen and the relief bench of Holy Light, but she was not angry, just disappointed...it was impossible to play!
She didn't want to accuse anything, but the supporters of the Holy Light didn't dare to look at her. Wherever her eyes looked, they collectively avoided them.
The game turned into a boring period again. In the end, even though Holy Light wanted to wait for Hideji Kitahara to be exhausted, Kitahara Hideji single-handedly wiped out the entire Holy Light team.
In the second half of the ninth inning, the score was fixed at 3:0, the air raid siren sounded, the game was valid, Private Daifuku advanced to the third round, the famous baseball team Sheng Guang returned home, and the summer ended early.
