Chapter 40: Seido High Vs. Yakushi High 2

"We are off to a good start", thought Miyuki.

The 2nd batsman, Akiba came to the batter's box.

"They're not aiming for the 1st pitches anymore. Seems like they changed their strategy", thought Miyuki analyzing the batter's posture.

Miyuki signaled for a low fastball to the inside corner.

Rei nodded and Rei winded up his glove, took his pitching position, swung back his arm with force, and released the ball aiming toward the mitt.

The ball went 150 KM hitting the mitt.

"STRIKE!", yelled the umpire.

Akiba trembled scared seeing such a fast ball come toward him. "This is different from the practice", he thought. Since they had practiced with pitching machines at a high level to practice against Seido's pitchers, this felt different to him.

In Yakushi's Dugout.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING? AKIBA! SWING!", yelled Raizou.

"Yeah!"

"Just like coach said".

Yelled the other players.

Back in the field.

"Like you guys know anything. It's different from the batter's box", thought Akiba scared.

"He's scared", thought Miyuki chuckling.

"Now what is that weirdo thinking", thought Rei shaking his head, seeing Miyuki chuckling to himself.

Miyuki positioned his mitt and signaled Rei for a high fastball to the outside.

Rei nodded and Rei winded up his glove, took his pitching position, swung back his arm with force, and released the ball aiming toward the mitt.

Akiba saw the ball coming toward him fast and looking at the ball he felt as if it would hit his head if it came closer. He moved out the way not willing to take a hit.

The ball hit the mitt and the umpire yelled, "STRIKE!".

Miyuki chuckled by himself seeing Akiba move out the way scared.

In Yakushi's Dugout.

"I'll kill that catcher"

"What does he think he's doing asking for a pitch so close to Akiba's head"

"That catcher Is messing with us"

Discussed the players amongst themselves frustrated.

In Seido's Dugout.

"What reckless catching", said Chris awkwardly.

"What a troublesome brat", said Takashima.

"MIYUKI KAZUYA!!! Don't make us LOSE!", yelled Sawamura.

Back in the field.

"Hahaha…", said Miyuki awkwardly hearing the commotion from the dugout.

Miyuki signaled Rei for a cutter to the inside while positioning his mitt for it.

Rei nodded and winded up his glove, took his pitching position, swung back his arm with force, and released the ball aiming toward the mitt.

Akiba swung on the pitch and missed it.

The ball went 150 KM hitting the mitt.

"STRIKE!", said the umpire.

"Damn it! I'll hit it next time", said Akiba frustratingly walking back to the dugout.

Mishima the 3rd batsman came to the batter's box.

"Doesn't seem like he's going to swing but didn't their coach change their strategy why couldn't I figure it out", thought Miyuki.

"Haa…", sighed Miyuki thinking of the strategies Yakushi could use.

Miyuki signaled Rei for a 2 seamer to the inside while positioning his mitt.

"Is he serious right now? maybe he's on to something", thought Rei as he prepared to pitch.

Rei winded up his glove, took his pitching position, swung back his arm with force, and released the ball aiming toward the mitt.

Mishima saw the ball coming and changed his stance to a bunt. He hit it and ran.

"BUNT!", yelled Kuramochi as soon as he saw the ball hit. He and Ryousuke hurriedly moved up to grab the ball.

Ryosuke grabbed It and threw it to the 2nd base.

Unfortunately, Mishima was already there.

"SAFE", said the umpire.

"AAAA…Rei-sama gave up a hit".

"HE GOT A HIT!"

"Yeah, I feel you man I am shocked as you are".

Discussed the audience.

Back in the field.

"Somehow I feel something dangerous", thought Miyuki. He turned and looked at Rei who was blasting his red aura to the max.

"Oh", thought Miyuki realizing that it was Rei's first hit.

"Don't mind", said Ryosuke.

"YAAHAA…I got you", said Kuramochi.

"What's there to worry about since there's only one person on the 2nd base? Just leave it up to us Rei-chan", said Masuko using all his wisdom for this statement.

"OOO…Masuko-san, I'm touched", said Kuramochi teasingly.

#17 came to the batter's box next.

"Raichi get a run".

"Hit it".

Yelled the players in Yakushi's dugout.

"Seems like a hard hitter", thought Miyuki analyzing #17.

Miyuki signaled for a 2 seamer to the inside corner while positioning his mitt.

Rei grinned and thought, "Now this is the kind of calling I like".

Rei winded up his glove, took his pitching position, swung back his arm with force, and released the ball aiming toward the mitt.

#17 saw the ball coming and made contact with the ball but he was jammed so the ball was a fly to the 1st baseman.

"Tetsu-san", said Masuko.

Tetsu nodded proudly.

Rei turned around and gave Tetsu a big thumbs up in appreciation.

"Is that it?", said Kuramochi.

"Tetsu senpai saved your life be more grateful", scolded Kuramochi as they came back to the dugout.

The top of the first inning ended with Yakushi not getting a run.

Yakushi's #10 was pitching.

Kuramochi hit the ball and made it to the first base with his speed.

Ryosuke bunted and made it to the base. While Kuramochi stole a base and currently was on the 3rd base.

Yuki hit the ball to the left field fence almost making it go over.

"Damn"

"It was almost a home run"

"Don't mind Tetsu-san".

Said the audience.

Tetsu nodded hearing the concern of the people.

With the hit, Kuramochi and Ryosuke made it to the home plate. Yuuki made it to the 2nd base.

In Yakushi's Dugout.

Raizou was pissed that they got no runs so far and Seido already scored 2. Which showed the difference between their lineups.

"Looks like you might have to play sooner than we planned, Sanada", said Raizou.

Sanada nodded and said, "They do have a dangerous Lineup, if we don't do anything we might lose".

Back in the field.

"MIYUKI!"

"HIT A HOME RUN!"

Cheered the audience seeing Miyuki come to the batter's box.

After a few seconds, Miyuki hit the ball feeling hyped, but it was caught by the catcher.

"Oops", said Miyuki coming back to the dugout.

[Score:

Yakushi: 0

Seido: 2]

Rei prepared to pitch for the 2nd inning.

Analyzing the batter Miyuki thought, "Is he making all the batters hit whatever pitch they think is easy? If it's like that then I have to pay attention and look at the type of batters, they are first".

Miyuki called for a low 2 seamer to the inside while positioning his mitt for it.

The batter made contact with it, and it went straight to Rei's glove.

"OUT!", said the umpire as Rei caught the ball.

In Seido's dugout.

Sawamura was shocked at Rei's catch. "I'll have to hand it to you on that one. Nice Catch!", he said while clapping.

"Strike!", said the umpire as Rei struck out the next batter.

In Yakushi's Dugout.

"Man, they're owning us…", said Raizou.

"Not to mention, he's a 1st year", said Sanada.

"Looks like I'll have to break his spirit", thought Raizou coming up with a new strategy.

Chapter 41: Seido High Vs. Yakushi High 3

Rei continued pitching the 2nd inning and struck out the batters.

"Nice pitching!", said Miyuki.

"Hmph", said Rei walking back to the dugout.

"What are you a tsundere!", said Miyuki.

It was Rei's turn to bat, so he grabbed his metal bat and walked toward the batter's box.

"Hello", said Rei to the catcher.

The catcher ignored him.

The Yakushi's pitcher threw the ball.

As soon as Rei saw the ball coming toward him, he hit it making it go over the fence.

"Too Easy", thought Rei grinning, while he jogged to touch all the bases.

In The Audience.

"What was that!"

"HOME RUN!!"

"YOKO are you ok", said a concerned friend seeing her friend faint.

"I-I Just can't, he's too cool", said the girl before closing her eyes.

"May you rest in peace", said the concerned friend.

"REI-SAMA!", yelled the concerned friend continuing to cheer after forgetting about Yoko.

In Seido's Dugout.

"R-Rei, that brat…how dare he show off with his batting", said Kuramochi trembling in anger.

"It's fine", said Miyuki patting his shoulder.

Kadota went to the batter's box after Rei and hit the ball.

The ball was a fly to the left fielder getting him out.

[Score:

Yakushi: 0-0

Seido: 2-1]

Rei continued throwing the 3rd inning and he struck out the 1st batter.

In Yakushi's Dugout.

"How about you have a taste of my new strategy", said Raizou.

"It will definitely catch them off guard", said his assistant.

"Is it necessary to do the tackle? I mean it doesn't make sense", said Sanada.

"We are just trying to confuse them so that they can be on guard", said Raizou.

Sanada nodded in agreement.

Back to the field.

#17 the hard hitter was up to bat.

Miyuki gave Rei a signal for a low Fastball to the inside corner.

Rei nodded and winded up his glove, took his pitching position, swung back his arm with force, and released the ball aiming toward the mitt.

As soon as #17 saw the ball coming toward him, he hit it.

The ball went past the 1st baseman to the right field.

#17 ran to the base while thinking about the strategy his coach told him to do.

Flashback.

In Yakushi's Dugout.

"Just for this one play. Tackle someone on the field to catch Seido off guard", said Raizou.

Seeing #17 hesitant, Raizou said, "It's not going to get you in trouble these, things happen in games".

#17 nodded.

Present, back to the field.

Shirasu hurriedly grabbed the ball and threw it to the 1st baseman, Yuuki.

#17 came running toward Yuuki. In just a few seconds before Yuuki could grab the ball, #17 tackled him to the ground and stepped on the base.

"Safe!", said the umpire.

In the Audience.

"Our poor Yuuki".

"Hey Umpire, what are you doing?".

"That's not fair".

"Change your decision".

In Seido's Dugout.

Kataoka hurriedly ran to the field to check up on Yuuki.

"Are you ok? Any injuries", asked Kataoka concerned, approaching Yuuki.

"I'm fine, I avoided it", said Yuuki shaking the dust off his pants as he stood up like the tackle never happened.

Kataoka nodded fully trusting Yuuki because if he didn't, he would have switched him out after this incident.

After a few minutes, Kataoka approached the umpire and started arguing with him.

"Do you think, Yuuki senpai is ok?", asked Haruichi concerned.

"I'll go give them a piece of my mind", said Sawamura ready to go to try to beat up #17.

"Calm down, Eijun-kun", said Haruichi.

Watching this Rei's concern was why did Yakushi suddenly do this? Was this part of their new strategy? He never saw this kind of play being displayed by Yakushi in the anime but then again, they were a rustic public school-type team.

Back in the Field.

"I can't change my decision. #17 didn't do anything that would disobey the rules of the game. As you know the game has some violence in it. I Can't just stop it", said the umpire sternly.

"I see", said Kataoka as he knew the umpire wouldn't change his decision based on his attitude.

"Is Yuuki ok?", asked Miyuki and Jun together worried.

"He's fine he doesn't look injured, but it seems the umpire is not going to change his decision", said Kataoka while sighing.

"W-what do we do now?", said Director Oota scared.

"It's simple we do nothing. But if you see them about to harm you, try your best to avoid it", said Kataoka.

All the players nodded.

"And Yuuki will still be in the game but if he shows any signs of injuries then we will switch him out", said Kataoka informing the team.

All the players nodded understanding the situation.

After this situation, the game continued with Rei pitching.

"AWESOME! That Tackle was so cool", said Raichi walking to the batter's box.

"WHAT ARE YOU THINKING, RAICHI? FOCUS! They'll find out you're a dumbass!", yelled Raizou from Yakushi's dugout.

Miyuki signaled for a low cutter to the outside corner when Raichi took his batting stance.

Rei nodded and winded up his glove, took his pitching position, swung back his arm with force, and released the ball aiming toward the mitt.

While hitting the ball Raichi was jammed.

The ball was hit past the 3rd baseman.

"Seriously! what a monster…he hit it that far while being jammed", thought Miyuki sighing.

Raichi made it to the 1st base and #17 made it to the 2nd base.

Akiba came to bat next.

Miyuki called for a low fastball to the outside corner.

Rei nodded and winded up his glove, took his pitching position, swung back his arm with force, and released the ball aiming toward the mitt.

Akiba hit a ground ball to the shortstop.

Kuramochi hurriedly fields it and throws it to the 3rd base to get #17 out and Masuko receives Kuramochi's signal telepathically telling him to throw it to the 2nd base for the 2nd out.

Akiba was still on the 1st base.

"OUT!", yelled the umpire as soon as he saw Yuuki catching the ball.

"Nice play, Kuramochi".

"DOUBLE PLAY!"

"As expected of Seido's defense".

Discussed the audience.

Kuramochi nudged Rei and when Rei looked at him, he saw the most disgusting expression ever. THE SMUG GRIN on Kuramochi Senpai's face.

Rei groaned knowing that Kuramochi was going to boast about this.

"YAAHAA…Rei how was it?", said Kuramochi with his smug grin.

"G-Good Play", said Rei reluctantly.

Kuramochi seemed surprised at his response but still teased him.

In Yakushi's Dugout.

"This is turning into a problem. Hey, Sanada. You should get- ", said Raizou.

"He already left", said his assistant, interrupting him.

"He's quick", said Raizou.

Back to the field.

Kuramochi and Ryousuke were on 2nd and 1st base.

It was currently Yuuki's turn to bat. He hit the ball past the 3rd base to the center field making Kuramochi and Ryosuke touch the home plate.

Yuuki made it to the 1st base safely.

"NICE BATTING!"

"TETSU-SAN!"

Yelled the audience.

In Yakushi's Dugout.

"We're 5 runs down. It's a little early but we have no choice. Nabe!", said Raizou signaling his catcher on the field.

"Yakushi High School has announced a change in players. Replacing Mino as the pitcher is Sanada. Pitcher, Sanada", said the announcer.

"Don't let them get any further, Sanada!", said Raizou.

"Sanada, isn't he the pitcher who's a future version of Sawamura? Hmm…well this is going to be a problem", thought Rei in the dugout.
