"This is the third one!"
In the rest area of Seidou High School, Coach Ochiai pinched his goatee and said thoughtfully.
To be honest, the current Seidou High School baseball team has a very perfect lineup. Even with Ochiai's critical eyes, he couldn't find anything wrong.
Of course, this does not mean that all his positions are okay.
There are two places that make him feel unsatisfied, the first is the main left fielder Sakai. He is without a doubt the weakest link in Seidou High School right now.
In addition, if he would pick another person who was a problem, that is probably the third baseman!
In a team sparkling with stars, Masuko's presence doesn't quite shine as brightly. It's not that his skills are lacking, it's just that they're not standing out amidst this constellation of talent.
If he set up a scoring system for players. Among all high school students, Masuko is a player with at least 80 points.
He is more than most high school players out there.
There is no problem with such a player being the main force in any team. But his team is Seidou High School, and now Seidou High School, except for the left field, are all players with more than 85 points.
Then take Out Masuko and Sakai.
Counting all the other players, they are all players with more than 90 points.
Including Isashiki Jun!
Although Isashiki Jun wasn't able to rise as a star player in the previous game. Nevertheless, his skills are very solid. In addition, his batting average is over 30%.
With this kind of performance, it is absolutely no problem to play as the cleanup and main force in a Famous High School.
The main left fielder Sakai is purely lacking in strength, the right fielder Shiratsu has not matured enough, and Masuko is not performing enough.
His previous performance did not match the position of the core main Batter of Seidou High School. Especially when all his teammates are particularly dazzling, this is all the more obvious.
Now, everything is different!
So far, Masuko has hit three home runs. The last one was a three-run home run.
Whether it's the number of home runs or the RBIs, the current Masuko is already among the best in Seidou High School. The original data of 80 points has soared by at least ten points!
Today's Masuko can be regarded as a star player in data. As for whether the fame can really rise, it depends on the follow-up reports and his own performance.
"Well done!"
"Amazing!"
"That was Cool, Masuko!!!"
Because Masuko Toru's previous reputation in Seidou High School was not particularly loud. Therefore, most of the audience still shouted the name of Seidou, and not many directly called the name of Masuko.
The rest area of Seidou High School was different. They were still ecstatic that Masuko could hit a home run.
In the previous game, they didn't know if Seidou High School was unlucky or what happened. The pitchers they encountered were all very strong.
It has been a long time since the advantage was established in the first inning.
The opponents are all the top tyrants in the country, and the players of Seidou High School have gradually adapted to this rule. In the opponents of Koshien, there are no weak chickens.
Unexpectedly, under such circumstances, Masuko gave everyone such a big surprise.
Especially for third-year players, Masuko's performance is even more inspiring.
The current Seidou High School is facing a rapid rise of a new generation. Consequently, the presence of third-year Senpais is not as prominent.
Now, Isashiki, Yuuki, and Masuko won three consecutive hits, especially the home run in the end.
This can give the seniors of the third grade a lot of pride.
"Awesome!"
Two Outs, no one on base.
The carnival in the rest area of Seidou High School did not hinder the continuation of the game.
"Sixth Batter, catcher, Miyuki-kun."
In this game, Sawamura was assigned the task of pitching the whole game and the next.
So in terms of hitting, he was not placed too far ahead. On the contrary, he is arranged to play in the lower line which does not require too much effort.
So Miyuki became the sixth batter.
"Come on, partner!"
In the rest area, all the third-year players gathered together, and they hadn't been so content for a while.
The first- and second-year players took the initiative to step aside. Leave this best memory to your Senpais.
Although he was very happy these Senpai in the third grade, Sawamura did not want to end the attack now.
He knew what was waiting for them after this game, and did not want to drag this game further.
So When Miyuki stepped into the strike zone, he took the initiative to cheer for Miyuki!
The third-year Senpai has established this opportunity, as Kohais, they can't let it waste.
As long as Miyuki can get a hit, Sawamura is still confident enough to hit this pitcher's Moving ball.
In terms of understanding of the Moving ball, no one can surpass Sawamura!
"Do not worry."
At the beginning of the game, such a big advantage was determined.
Miyuki was also very confident, he smiled and gave Sawamura an ok gesture.
Then!
Ping!
After the white ball was hit, it flew high.
SNAP!
The ball that fell, landed precisely in the pitcher's Mitt.
"OUT!!"
Three Outs, offense and defense exchange.
The players of Seidou High School were not surprised by such a result.
After returning to the rest area, Miyuki Kazuya shamelessly changed his gear and told Sawamura.
"It was just a mistake, and I almost hit the center of the ball."
Sawamura couldn't help rolling his eyes.
"You're a genius if you can hit a sinking Moving ball into a Pop-up!"
"You are overpraising me!" Miyuki didn't care.
"I wasn't praising you! And this ball didn't have much power into it, any contact with enough power will get it a bit far!"
"It did get far, you know."
"The mound isn't far you Glasses!"
When you are unfamiliar with him, Miyuki always looks teasing and irritating.
But after getting acquainted with him, you will find his true nature, this guy is simply plain shameless.
"If you can't get rid of this problem, then you will always be worse than Chris-shisho," Sawamura said sincerely.
"I know." Miyuki nodded.
Of course, he knew the problem, but he didn't have enough determination, and it was difficult to correct these shortcomings on his own.
In the first half of the second inning, Hirotaka High School attacked.
"STRIKE!"
"STRIKE!"
"STRIKE! BATTER OUT!"
"STRIKE! BATTER OUT!!"
"STRIKE! BATTER OUT!!!"
Three Outs, offense and defense exchange.
Despite Kosuke Ishizue's bitter warning to everyone that Sawamura must not continue to get strikeouts.
But when they actually played, the batters of Hirotaka High School found that it was very difficult to bunt Sawamura's ball.
Because he controls the ball so well, he can throw the ball into any corner of the zone.
In such corners, it is also very difficult for batters to bunt, they simply cannot knock it!
So, without suspense, another three strikeouts in a row.
