51 Chapter 51: Seidou’s Counterattack

After being hit a home run, Tanpa's performance was still heroic, and he quickly scored the remaining two Outs. 

Three outs, offense, and defense exchange.

With a total score of 2:1, Seidou was temporarily behind.

In the second half of the fourth inning, Seidou High School attacked.

"Fourth, first baseman, Yuuki-kun."

Seidou's first Batter was Yuuki Tetsuya.

"Seidou!"

"Come on!"

"Hit it, Captain!"

"It's all on you!"

One point behind, at this time, you need to hit to recover the score.

In this situation, the pressure on the Batter should be amazing.

But when Tetsu stands in the strike zone, his stance is very simple and natural.

'It's scary!'

This kind of presence always gave Haku a very uncomfortable feeling. If it weren't for the fact that there were no runners on the base now, the Catcher would have Walked Tetsu.

A very good ball path will be targeted. the fight will be with the Breaking-balls in the corners!

And Ino doesn't lack tricky balls.

Although his Pitch is not strong or fast, he has the control. He can throw the ball precisely to the corners of the strike zone, and the Breaking-balls in these corners can also be a very tricky course for batters.

Originally, the ball in the corner was not easy to aim, and with the break of the ball, although this kind of ball is not fast, it is not easy to hit.

Ino can be the Ace of the Powerhouse Yokohama-North High School, of course, he will not be easy to hit off.

When he threw such a Breaking-ball into the strike zone, Tetsu's eyes on the strike zone also sank.

After the opponent's pitcher went through the first lineup, he finally started to up his game!

If that's the case, he'll have to beat him even more.

With a plan in mind, the bat in his hands was raised high.

Whoosh!

The Slider to the edge of the outside corner.

In the face of this ball, the result is a decisive swing.

Ping!

The white ball was hit and flew at an incredible speed toward the middle of the first and second basemen.

Yokohama's first baseman and second baseman jumped out one after another, but they were all one step behind and missed the ball.

This ball is too fast!

Yuuki Tetsuya hit the ball and flew to second base himself.

No Out, runner at second base!

He is the team's fourth Batter, and at times like this, he shows an extraordinary sense of presence.

Then batting the fifth, Masuko came on, and as soon as he got on the field, he used a bunt to walk him to third base.

One out, a runner at the third base.

"Sixth, Catcher, Miyuki-kun."

At this time, it was Miyuki's turn to swing.

"This guy got a one tailored for him again."

Kuramochi muttered in dissatisfaction.

This time, Miyuki is undoubtedly the protagonist and can play at such a good time every time.

"What if you have such an opportunity tailored for you? It's not like you can get a hit."

Sawamura muttered.

"What did you say?"

Kuramochi leaned on Sawamura's head and asked with a bad expression.

Sawamura complained wildly in his heart, what kind of ears are these, you can hear them all.

"Nothing, nothing."

Sawamura smiled awkwardly and ran away in a hurry.

"This Kohai is not cute."

Kuramochi looked at Sawamura, who was waiting on the on-deck.

"What right do you have to say to others, when you were a freshman, you were not as haughty?"

Kominato Ryosuke teased him with a smile.

One out, a runner at third base!

Yokohama, who had a very tough defense, adopted a forward defense, showing that they were determined not to let Seidou score.

"Interesting!"

Miyuki looked at Yokohama's defense calmly and then turned his attention to the pitcher.

'What Tetsu-san hit was a corner pitch, and Masuko-senpai hit a bunt. To avoid being forced to score points by bunts, the ball path that should be used at this time is…'

'Low-angle Slider to the inside corners!'

As if to cooperate with Miyuki, Haku gave Ino a low-angle Slider.

coming!

Miyuki took a step forward, lowered his center of gravity, and hit the ball hard.

Ping!

After the white ball was hit, it landed in the space between the second baseman and shortstop.

The baseball went through and flew to the outfield.

The outfielder who retreated early had to run forward to catch the ball. This gave Miyuki a chance, and he hit second base in one go. And the Tetsuya on the third base, returned to home plate easily.

The total score is 2:2!

Seidou tied the score.

This is not over, Seidou's attack is far from over.

One out, a runner at second base.

"Seventh, left fielder, Sawamura-kun."

At this time, it was Sawamura's turn to bat.

Seeing Sawamura entering the strike zone, the scene suddenly fell into a different atmosphere.

"Sawamura! Sawamura!!!"

"Fight out! Fight out!!!"

Fans from all over the stadium cheered for Sawamura. These cheers came together to create an extraordinary momentum.

Yokohama, who had lost a point in the first place, seemed to have fallen to the bottom of the valley all of a sudden.

The Catcher, Haku, frowned.

Now the atmosphere does not allow him to back down.

However, it's not necessarily a bad thing. Ino didn't take Sawamura seriously before, so this kid took advantage. Now, if Sawamura can be dealt with neatly, maybe the situation can be brought back.

'Treat him as an opponent of the same level as their Cleanup!'

Seeing Haku's Sign, Ino, the Pitcher nodded on the pitcher's mound.

He also felt the difference in Sawamura.

'But no matter how different you are, you are a first-year kid.'

'Now, it's not the time for you to show your prestige.'

Whoosh!

A ball that contains the pitcher's strong will, flew to the zone.

Sawamura brutally waved his Bat.

Ping!

When the small white ball was in the inner corner, it slid inward, and although Sawamura hit the ball out, it did not land on the field.

"FOUL!"

Count, No Ball, One Strike.

Sawamura was temporarily behind.

On the strike zone, Sawamura's face became heavy.

The ball is in the corner, and it is uncomfortable to play by itself. At this time, with such a break, it is even more difficult to play.

How good is Tetsu-san swing to hit the pitch there?

Miyuki's hit, Sawamura was not surprised, this guy guessed the ball, just like a catcher. But Tetsuya was in the same situation as him, and he didn't know what kind of ball Ino would throw.

But even so, Yuuki still hit the ball.

Just talking about swinging and hitting, Sawamura still has a big gap to Tetsuya!

This gap made Sawamura very reluctant, but there was nothing he could do.

The game continued, and after trailing by the strike count, Sawamura put on a bunt stance.

Haku frowned subconsciously, is this to walk the runner to third base?

"It's really annoying!"

'That will do it too, the most important thing is to get the number of Outs, and then go to the next batter and decide the winner.'

With a plan, Haku decided to give Ino the sign.

On the pitching mound, Ino nodded and then pitched the ball.

Neither of them noticed until the pitch was thrown, and the audience suddenly fell silent when they saw Sawamura posing with a bunt stance.

They all looked forward to the changes on the field one by one.
