Chapter 77: Immortal Strikes!(1/2)
At this moment, the players and supporters of the City University Junior High School baseball team felt that their world had gone dark.
They couldn't figure out why Li Lei was getting better and better in the final stage of the game?
Could it be that in the previous game, their junior high baseball team from the top wealthy city in the country didn't even put any pressure on him?
Even bystanders had similar thoughts in their hearts.
Not to mention, Zuo Zuomu stood on the strike zone and swung the bat.
After Zuo Zuomu swung the bat out, he was surprised to find that his bat didn't even touch the ball.
There is no change in baseball, it is the purest straight ball, and it is a straight ball close to the center.
But it was such a straight ball, but he didn't even touch the edge of the ball.
"It's over!"
For a moment, Zuo Zuomu felt that his world had turned into black and white.
His eyes seemed to have lost their color.
Just when Zuo Zuomu felt like he was falling into an abyss, he suddenly heard the cheers of his friends.
what happened?
"Run!"
Before Zuo Zuomu could figure it out, his body flew out.
As an excellent baseball player, Zuo Zuomu's body has already been tempered.
Sometimes, without his brain reacting, his muscles reflex nerves will take the first step.
For example, right now.
Zuo Zuomu galloped all the way to first base.
"Safety!"
One out and one man on first base.
Zuo Zuomu breathed a long sigh of relief, and then he had the intention to turn back and see what was going on.
Then he saw the annoyed figure of Watanabe in the catcher's position.
It turned out that Watanabe didn't catch Li Lei's last ball.
The baseball bounced out of his glove.
"really!"
There was a hint of relief on Zuo Zuomu's face.
But then, his expression became extremely ugly again.
Zuo Zuomu was relieved because his feeling was correct.
Li Lei's pitching at the last moment was indeed abnormal!
It's not just their batters who have headaches.
Even the players of the Yakushima High School baseball team obviously did not expect that Li Lei's pitching would suddenly evolve!
As a result, he didn't even catch the ball in the end.
Zuo Zuomu's face was pale for the same reason.
In the game between Yaoshi and the city's junior high school baseball team, due to insufficient intelligence and the opponent's underestimation of Li Lei's pitching ability.
The Yakushi High School baseball team actually played very easily.
From the beginning of the competition until now, the pharmacist has firmly held the initiative in the competition.
As for Li Lei, let alone that.
As the true ace of the team, he not only suppressed the city's senior high school students throughout the game, but also controlled his pitches to less than 100 pitches.

Li Lei's remaining physical strength was enough for him to finish the game easily.
Although in the seventh inning, the city's junior high baseball team fought hard to catch up.
But Li Lei's performance was also very calm.
Although it is embarrassing to say so.
But to be honest, at least in this game, the city's senior baseball team did not push Li Lei to the limit.
Li Lei's performance was very calm from beginning to end.
"In this case, how could Li Lei go further?"
It is easy to understand that people perform beyond their level or make breakthroughs when they are under pressure.
But the current situation is obviously not the case.
"Where did this guy come from?"
Zuo Zuomu of the city's junior high school baseball team, and many players like Zuo Zuomu, all have this question in their minds.
Although Zuo Zuomu was frightened, others at the scene were obviously not.
They obviously have different understandings of this sudden strikeout.
"It seems that the goddess of victory has not completely abandoned the three high school students of City University and has given them a chance."
"Could it be that?"
"The gap is too big. One or two lucks and coincidences may change the score, but they will definitely not change the situation on the court."
In the dugout of the Yakashi High School baseball team.
Everyone looked strange.
They don't know whether they should cry or laugh when encountering such a situation.
Supervisor Todoroki Raizo smiled bitterly, "There will really be problems."
There are some things that even he, the supervisor, cannot handle.
Just like now.
Li Lei suddenly made such a shot, and Watanabe was caught off guard.
Considering their team’s original strategy, what can Supervisor Todoroki Raizo say at this time?
He can only leave it to the players themselves.
Fortunately, he believed in Li Lei.
Such a small accident should not be enough to shake Li Lei.
On the pitcher's mound.
A smile flashed in Li Lei's eyes. This sudden surprise was something he had never thought of before.
As for how to deal with it?
Li Lei had already made plans.
He stretched out his finger, ready to call timeout.
However, before Li Lei could take action, Watanabe, who was standing at the catcher's position, spoke to the referee behind him.
"Requesting a pause."
In the bottom of the ninth inning, with one out and someone on first base.
The Yakushi High School baseball team, which had an overwhelming advantage, suddenly called a timeout.
Then Watanabe jogged all the way to the pitcher's mound.
"Sorry, I got a little too carried away. I will control the power of the pitch later."
Li Lei looked apologetic.
Although he was unable to fully unleash his pitching ability, it was due to the lack of strength of his partner.
But the arrest is never about two people, but a pair.
When his partner can't keep up, Li Lei must suppress his own pitching.
Otherwise, their game would be impossible to play.
So Li Lei believed that this was caused by his own mistake.
But he doesn't think this is a big problem. The game has reached this point, and he is determined to win the last two outs.
"Are you looking down on us? Don't forget that we are your seniors."
Watanabe, who had always been gentle, said in an uncharacteristically stern tone.
Li Lei raised his head in surprise.
