"Waaaaaah!"
"Oooooooooooh!"
"OoooooooooooooooooooooooH!"
The field, the stands, and even the people on the other side of the screen were all exploding with cheers and clapping.
"YEAAHHHHH!!!!!!!"
'Won!'
'We Won!!'
'We Finally Won!!!'
On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura was roaring his soul out!
Years, sweat, tears, regrets, efforts, and wills have been put, spilled, and honed all for this moment.
Originally, after all of that, he thought that there would be no more twists and turns in this game. Unexpectedly, Inashiro gave him such a surprise in the end.
Carlos guessed the ball correctly and threw the ball into the outfield, causing Sawamura to break out in a cold sweat. And Sakai also made a mistake at the time. If he hadn't stopped the baseball with his body, Carlos might not have hit a double base.
The most surprising is Shirakawa.
With that ball Sawamura threw against him, Sawamura originally thought that he was sure of winning and that Shirakawa would definitely be Out of the game, and if Masuko's timing was clever, he would have a chance to win a double play.
But unfortunately, Masuko lost his focus.
This gave Inashiro, the two on base, and it was the fourth batter turn at bat.
Many viewers felt that Inashiro would create a miracle.
But they also underestimated Sawamura!
But they also underestimated Seidou!
Sawamura was roaring on the pitching mound, and his teammates from all directions rushed onto the mound one by one.
"Stinky boy, I knew you were so capable!"
"Good boy."
"As expected of our Ace!"
"Ugahh!"
"Hyaa-ha-haa, you can act Haughty as much as you want!"
"But don't get too smug!"
"One, two, Hooray!"
All the players, working together, threw Sawamura into the sky, and then followed him with their hands.
This scene, More than 20,000 spectators watched the scene and gave a collective standing applause.
The commentator of Jingu Stadium was stunned for a while before opening his mouth to say.
"The Famous Seidou High School, after six years of hard work, finally got what they wanted and entered Koshien."
"For a long time, Coach Kataoka of Seidou has been looking for the Ace of Seidou High School. And finally this time, he found him. Seidou High School has a real Ace of their own."
"Sawamura Eijun was entrusted by Coach Kataoka in his first year to become the Ace pitcher of this Famous High School. Under his leadership, the old and Famous Seidou High School has shown the Seidou style. The First at the Kanto Tournament, and then, this summer, at the top of 128 schools in West Tokyo."
"The Champion of the West Tokyo final is Seidou High School!"
In the applause of the audience's blessing.
On the pitcher's mound, in the rest area of Seidou High School, and in the stands.
All became a sea of joy.
The Eijun's grandfather also forgot where he was, and patted his chest proudly and told the people around him.
"The one on the pitcher's mound is my grandson!"
"He is my grandson!!"
Wakana and Sawamura's father hurried to stop the old man who had completely forgotten himself.
The place was in chaos.
President Ota was so excited that he burst into tears.
Coach Kataoka was all smiles when the game ended he was making a guts pose and roared with Sawamura!
Even Ochiai is very happy, he was smiling and shuddering all over which made him look a bit strange.
On the other side, the players from Inajitsu stood there in a daze, tears welling up in their eyes.
For the third-year players of Inajitsu, their high school baseball journey has come to an end.
On the on-deck circle, Narumiya Mei knelt down on the ground in pain, and the tears in his eyes flowed into a small stream.
Perhaps in his heart, the game has not yet ended, and he has not had time to fight.
During the competition, the players of Inajitsu worked hard and even threatened the defense of Seidou High School many times.
Pity! Until the end, they never won even a single point from Sawamura's hands.
The Maou, Sawamura Eijun.
After graduating from middle school and advancing to high school, the name Sawamura was mentioned less and less.
Anyway, at that time he was in the softball league, which was relatively weak in middle school.
Players from the Softball League are inherently mixed, and even if there are occasional talents, they need to be honed by high school baseball before they can truly grow up.
As soon as he joined high school, he had the strength to fight the Giants, and the only monster who entered Koshien was Sawamura!
"We didn't get a single point in the end!"
Superintendent Kunitomo looked at Sawamura, who was being held high by the players of Seidou High School, with helplessness in his eyes.
In the next two years, they and Seidou High School will have many opportunities to fight.
Next, how to attack Sawamura is the focus of Inajitsu's work.
"Mei, let's go to line up!"
Narumiya Mei, who was on his knees in defeat, suddenly felt a big hand on his shoulder.
Mei raised his head and looked at the unwavering figure in front of him.
"Masa-saan~!"
"Don't shame the title of Prince of Tokyo, you will make people think that we can't take a loss in Inashiro."
"But~?"
"Nothing to do, let's go to line up!"
Narumiya Mei stood up, like a walking corpse, and walked to the center of the stadium.
Right now, most of the players of Inajitsu are like this.
One by one, they dragged their exhausted bodies toward the field.
The rhythm of this game was very fast at the beginning, and in the final stage, the rhythm of the game suddenly turned slow.
A total of one hour and 15 minutes.
But it is a full baseball game, a nine-inning game.
This game is not long, But it was unmistakably a heated battle.
The players from Seidou High School gradually put Sawamura down.
This kind of celebration is somewhat unethical.
But the players at Seidou High School were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.
Almost all the players smiled and walked to the center of the field, standing in a row with the players from Inajitsu.
"Thank you for the opportunity!!!!"
"Thank you for the opportunity!!!!"
The players bowed to each other and handshake the other side.
Harada was shaking Yuuki's hand and telling him something, Carols was shaking Kuramochi's hand solemnly, Shirakawa was shaking Miyuki's hand, and Narumiya was shaking Sawamura's hand with his both hands.
"Don't come back with anything other than the Championship!" Narumiya said half in tears.
"Yes, you got this, Mei-san!" Sawamura replied solemnly.
After that, the closing ceremony started.
The players lined up, and Seidou players sang the school anthem.
As always Furuya just moved his lips as if he was singing, which made Sawamura resist the urge to laugh.
Then Yuuki got the West Tokyo flag and the players got their medals and prizes.
"In the final of West Tokyo, Seidou High School played the game of Inajitsu. The final score was 4:0, and the champion was the Seidou High School baseball team!"
In this summer, Seidou High School, a prestigious school, officially announced their resurrection.
After the game, Superintendent Kataoka looked at his players without any words of encouragement, just said plainly.
"The next step is the National Championship!"
"Yeahhhh!!!!!!!"
"Now, let's thank the audience who came to cheer for you."
"Yes!"
In front of the audience.
All the players of Seidou High School stood in a row and bent deeply at the audience who came to cheer them on.
"Thanks!"
"Thanks!!!!!"
