Chapter 43: Miracle
"boom!"
The terrifying swing, and the baseball that was hit, which no one can see anymore.
The scene fell into a moment of silence.
Immediately afterwards, people heard Honglei City’s signature laughter.
"Ka, hahahaha..."
The laughter was so sharp that people couldn't help but frown.
But even so, when everyone looked at Honglei City, their eyes were filled with wonder.
Although they knew that Todoroki was a monster before, he had knocked Sanada's pitches away before.
But after seeing Sanada's pitching on the field, the first-year players on the Yakushima High School baseball team still couldn't help but doubt it.
Can Thunder City really do that?
Can he really hit the ball thrown by Sanada Junpei?
Perhaps they were frightened by Sanada Junpei's pitching, but the first-year players on the Yakushima High School baseball team just didn't want to believe it.
At least they don't want to believe that on today's occasion, faced with Sanada Junpei's pitching, the Thunder City can still blast the ball away?
However, the reality was so cruel that it slapped their faces.
What they thought was impossible eventually happened before their eyes.
Hongleishi hit the ball cleanly and without any sloppiness.
So much so that after watching the blow from Thunder City, the first-year players on the Yakushima High School baseball team didn't know what they should say?
The first person to react was probably Todoroki Raizo, who was guest referee. The corners of his mouth curled up into a comfortable smile.
"As expected of my son, he has two brushes."
Shunpei Sanada's pitching just now was definitely at the peak of his pitching state.
Even though the game is about to end, Sanada Junpei has already thrown a lot of balls, and his pitching state has obviously declined.
But as for the shot just now, it was still Sanada Junpei's almost perfect shot.
But even with such a ball, it was eventually ruthlessly swept away by Hong Leishi.
It seemed that by the time the two faced off for the third time, Todoroki had completely seen through Sanada's pitch.
His precious son is so outstanding, of course Todoroki Raizo is excited.
Perhaps because he was so excited, he didn't even notice the expressions on the faces of the sophomore and third-year players on the Yakushima High School baseball team.
The faces of those players looked like they had just been dug out of the soil.
As pale as you want, just as pale...
All the strength in their bodies seemed to have been drained away.
The first-year newcomers seem to have seen the goddess of victory waving to them again.
Li Lei's pitching gave the boys endless confidence.
Plus the current score.
As Toraichi scored a two-run home run, the score on the field became 3:5.
The freshman team leads by two points.
This made the first-year newcomers extremely confident that they would win today's game.
He was able to defeat the main students in the second and third grade just after he entered school.
This is undoubtedly something to be proud of, and the freshmen of the Yakashi High School baseball team really want to celebrate.
But before they could cheer, they felt the tragedy of the second and third grade seniors.
The friends who originally wanted to cheer seemed to have something stuck in their throats, unable to make any sound.
I can’t explain the reason, but my friends feel that it would not be particularly good for them to celebrate now.
It felt like I was slapping those seniors in the face.
They can only use their excited little eyes to share happiness with their friends around them.
"How embarrassing!"
Sanada Junpei on the pitcher's mound gave a wry smile.
He had been planning for so long and practiced in private for more than half a month, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't escape Hong Leishi's swing.
Have to admit it.
Whether it's their current supervision or the monster-like Thunder City.
They are really different, very, very different.
With these two guys on the team, perhaps their high school baseball careers will become extremely different.
He couldn't explain the reason, but Sanada didn't feel angry at all, but rather looked forward to it.
In the course of the next game, he easily got one out and successfully completed their fielding.
The two sides exchanged offense and defense, and the game came to the last round.
If the second and third grade seniors of the Yakushi High School baseball team cannot score two or more points in the last inning of the offense.
Then a new history for the Yakushima High School baseball team is about to begin.
At the last moment of the game, the second and third grade seniors had already fallen into despair.
Acting extremely bachelor.
With the situation in such a bad situation, they completely let go and wanted to have a showdown with Li Lei on the pitcher's mound.
These second and third grade seniors also admitted it.
Li Lei's strength is extraordinary.
The reason why the freshman team was able to create such a legend is undoubtedly the role played by Hong Leishi, and he must be the biggest contributor.
But the foundation for the freshman team to take the lead or even win was not Hong Leishi.
But because of Li Lei.
Precisely because Li Lei was on the pitcher's mound, he solved the offense of the batters of the Yakushima High School baseball team and did not let them go too far.
Only the freshmen team has maintained its lead until now.
But now it's the 9th game, and Li Lei is another freshman who has just entered high school.
His physical strength and pitching power were also weakened to varying degrees at this time.
The sophomore and third-year players on the Yakushima High School baseball team intuitively thought this was their chance.
As long as they can seize this opportunity, maybe they can make a difference at the last moment of the game.
"Just come here, I will definitely hit the ball!"
The batter who had just stepped into the batter's box took on a desperate posture, staring intently at Li Lei on the pitcher's mound.
Li Lei, on the other hand, kept his expression and threw the ball out of his hand.
It feels like you are doing something trivial.
"call out!"
The baseball came roaring in, just like at the beginning of the game, the speed of the ball did not change at all.
They are all at the level of the first half of 130 kilometers.
The batter gritted his teeth and swung the bat out of his hand.
"Ping!"
"Snapped!"
"Out!"
"Out!!"
"nice shot!"
"The outside world!!"
"nice shot!!!"
"strike out!!!"
"Three outs, game over!!!"
In the final attack, the second- and third-year players of the Yakushima High School baseball team showed extremely tenacious fighting spirit.
They made up their minds to fight Li Lei to the end.
Unfortunately, their determination did not bring them the results they wanted.
After less than five minutes, the game came to an end.
The score finally settled at 3:5, which was a miracle.
Chapter completed!
