Chapter 39: The Big Three in West Tokyo!(1/2)
The players on the city's junior high school baseball team were obviously unprepared for this sudden challenge.
Their team's ace pitcher was hit by a home run during a match against the first-year rookie of the Yakushima High School baseball team.
Being one point behind is nothing.
The most critical issue is that the players on the city's senior baseball team have no choice but to accept this result.
All of them look silly...
He looked at a loss.
Especially if the ace pitcher really hit the target, if he were to be hit the hardest, it would definitely be him.
It was under this situation that Li Lei stood in the strike zone.
Honglei City had just scored a home run, and their entire team was full of momentum.
in this case.
If Li Lei doesn't keep up his efforts, he will knock the ball away and help the team score another point.
He was somewhat unworthy of the attention of the supervisor.
After all, he was originally the team's sixth batsman. Although he also played in the middle, this position obviously cannot be compared with the third, fourth, and fifth batsmen.
As a cleanup hitter, the fifth bat is second only to the fourth bat in importance.
"Isn't this putting pressure on me in disguise?"
Li Lei's heart was full, as if a huge boulder had been pressed against him.
Faced with such a situation, he seemed to have no other solution except to keep pushing himself.
"Then come on! I just want to verify the results of the previous special training."
Choose one of the three colors of balls to hit.
What does this exercise target?
Director Todoroki Raizo did not make it clear to the players.
But even if he didn't make it clear, the players were not stupid.
Before the game against the city's junior high school students, the supervisor specifically asked everyone on their team to practice this kind of swing?
Is there any need to mention the purpose?
Of course, it was to target the three senior high school students in the city, or to put it more simply, it was to target the real target in front of me.
"bring it on!"
Li Lei stood ready.
The friends in the dugout of the Yakushi High School baseball team also kept cheering Li Lei on.
Originally, no one on the Yakushi High School baseball team took Li Lei's hitting ability seriously.
They relied heavily on Li Lei, which meant they relied heavily on Li Lei's pitching.
but now.
They watched helplessly as Li Lei worked hard step by step to get to this point.
Li Lei's striking strength has improved visibly to the naked eye.
Sanada is now the sixth batsman, and Li Lei is the team's fifth batsman.
This already explains the problem.
"One more city!"
"It must be no problem."
The Medicine Master players looked particularly excited.
The two wealthy teams who came to watch the game in the stands also kept their mouths shut when faced with this situation.
They don’t know how the next game will develop?
I don’t know if Manaka Kaname can hold on?
The pitcher is undoubtedly a very wonderful creature.
This spring, the city junior high school baseball team played a game with Qingdao.
City Junior College was defeated miserably in the end.
The most important reason is that the ace pitcher of the city's junior high school baseball team, Zhenyao, was unable to maintain his form after returning from the Koshien field.
As a result, he was hit mercilessly by the Seido High School baseball team, and he collapsed immediately.
The outcome will be as miserable as it is.
No one knows whether the current City University junior high baseball team will make the same mistake again?
Under the spotlight.
Manaka should raise his head and stare at the opponent in the strike zone carefully.
Li Lei?
In the face of tremendous pressure, the ace pitcher of the city's junior high school baseball team did not give in.
"I had this realization long before I met you bad boys!"
Zhenzhong needs to maintain his stance and throw the ball decisively.
The baseball is coming.
Li Lei watched helplessly as the baseball flew past his eyes, without any time to react.
"Snapped!"
"Bad ball!!"
The ball ultimately strayed outside the strike zone.
But that's not important.
If you really want to be able to still show your pitching ability, it means that the home run that Thunder City just hit was not able to defeat City's three ace pitcher.
In the dugout of the Yakushi High School baseball team.
Supervisor Todoroki Raizo's expression suddenly turned from clear to cloudy.
"It didn't collapse? It seems that just one home run is not enough. After losing to Seido in the spring, this guy also evolved!"
"Idiot son, if you can hit the ball the next time you hit it, I'll treat you to fried pork chops!"
Tonkatsu?
Hongleishi looked at his father in disbelief.
"Stop talking nonsense. With a dad like you and our family's economic conditions, when will we be able to afford fried pork chops?"
The fried pork cutlet is certainly very attractive.
But Honglei City knows better that considering their family's financial situation, fried pork chops are out of reach.
"Don't mess with your dad. If I lose this game, I will lose my job! Then our family will be even worse..."
This couple, father and son, actually got into a fight in the rest area.
It's just that at this time, Li Lei had no intention of worrying about this.
His eyes were firmly fixed on the pitcher.
When the ball came, he took action decisively.
"Ping!"
The baseball hit the bat, bounced high, and landed behind the catcher and the umpire.
"The outside world!"
The number of balls is one good and one bad.
Li Lei, who was on the strike zone, took a deep breath.
He admitted that the pitch that really hits the target is really sharp.
But with his hitting ability, Li Lei won't be able to miss the ball completely.
More or less, he can catch some pitches.
"Come again!"
"Ping!"
"The outside world!"
With two consecutive foul balls, Li Lei was chased.
But being able to touch the ball one after another, Li Lei's blows once again made those guys in the stands feel wary.
To be continued...
