Capítulo 92: Yakushi High Vs. Seido High 8
DISCLAIMER: Tomorrow is going to be the last chapter for this match.
----------------------
5th inning, the top was about to start, and all the players were currently on the move going to their positions. Meanwhile in Seido's Dugout.
"Hahahaha…Leave it to me this inning! Boss! Just watch how I hit Rei's pitches. Hahaha…", said Sawamura as he continued laughing proudly.
"Shut up and go warm up", said Kataoka bluntly.
"Hahaha…I will do it right away, Boss! Since I know how devastating it would be for the team if I Sawamura can't perform well", said Sawamura as he flattered himself.
"That face pisses me off", commented Miyuki.
"I'm here too you know", said Kawakami.
No comment was given by Furuya since he still had a towel on his head and sat on the bench in deep thought. Miyuki had tried to talk to him, but he couldn't get a reply from him, so he left.
'I guess Sawamura is the only one who can talk to Coach like that', thought Miyuki awkwardly witnessing the interaction between them.
"We are going to destroy Yakushi in this inning. Yahaha! Rei's not going to know what hit him", said Kuramochi laughing menacingly as he imagined the scenario of Rei admitting how much better of a player, he was than him.
'I have a bad feeling about this', thought Haruichi as he looked at Kuramochi senpai's expression.
Back in the Field. All the players stood in their positions getting ready. Yakushi players stretched as they waited for the siren to ring.
Rei on the mound, 'It's surprising how Sawamura can pitch numbers. I have to be cautious of him in this match. Any carelessness could cost us the game. Another thing that's on my mind is that I have to open the reward for the quest so badly. The curiosity is killing me. How about I ope-'. He was about to receive the reward, but the siren rang, signaling the game's start.
Seido was batting, so Higasa came to the batter's box. Without any mercy, Rei struck him out and Higasa swung at each pitch aggressively.
"Strike!", said the umpire.
Higasa looking sullen along with his pouty lips left the batter's box.
The second Higasa went back to the dugout, a loud voice was heard in the field.
"Leave everything to me! This is a piece of cake. I am going to go and hit a home run. I know the team is losing. I will do my best to score. I got you! Cap!", said Sawamura confidently as he walked to the batter's box swinging his bat.
Remembering Sawamura's previous actions, Rei thought that he might actually have something up his sleeves for batting since even a noob knew how bad of a batter Sawamura was. So, Rei turned serious this time, he needed to get Sawamura out.
Sawamura in the batter's box sweated bullets and laughed feeling the pressure Rei was emitting on the mound. 'I got this', he thought grabbing his bat tightly.
Rei pitched and Sawamura yelled, "HIYAA!" each time he swung and missed.
"Strike!", said the umpire.
'I guess I was worrying for nothing', thought Rei scratching his head awkwardly.
In Seido's Dugout. Miyuki was trembling in shock, 'That baka! He should've bunted or something he wasted such a good chance of scoring. Now, why is he walking back as if nothing happened?', he thought stupefied staring at Sawamura.
Sawamura walked back to the dugout calmly and put his bat back in the rack.
'Can't trust that idiot with anything', thought Asou as he walked to the batter's box.
"Asou senpai, good luck!", yelled Sawamura from the dugout giving him a thumbs up with a twinkle in his eyes.
This action ticked off Asou and he grumbled in response.
On the mound, 'Hopefully, this is the last inning I have to pitch. I'm getting bored of this match there's not much challenge. Anyways, since it's the last inning hopefully, fingers crossed, how about I give them a show to remember.', thought Rei smirking.
Seeing Rei smirking on the mound, an ominous feeling rose in Kazuma's heart.
Asou came to the batter's box and gripped his bat.
Taking a deep breath, Rei pitched, a rising fastball.
Kazuma held his breath as he caught the ball. It was his second time catching this pitch, if it wasn't for his practice with Rei, he wouldn't be able to catch it.
Asou stood stiff in the batter's box not knowing what just hit him. He looked at the mound and saw Rei smirking at him. 'That bastard, is he being playful? In this situation!', he was pissed.
'Woo. He's angry', thought Rei chuckling as he whistled.
Seeing Rei's playful personality on the mound, both teams were shocked since they couldn't imagine he would be playing it easy in this situation.
Raizou clapped and winked at Rei giving him a thumbs up which weirded him out but Kataoka, on the other hand, was getting anxious.
In the audience.
"His play style Is cool", said Ryosuke.
"These actions of his will definitely discourage the rival team. He's not taking the match seriously and it's the finals", commented Chris.
Ryosuke nodded, 'Though I still think his playstyle is cool'.
Back in the Field.
"3 Outs! Change!", yelled the umpire.
Yakushi's dugout celebrated while everyone in Seido's dugout was getting anxious.
In Seido's Dugout. Asou came back to the dugout frustrated by his own helplessness. "Don't mind", said Sawamura as he patted his back consoling him. Asou looked at him stupefied.
"We have to do our best not to let them score any more runs!", said Nabe emphasizing the importance of this. He knew if they let them score more runs the game is definitely going to be called. He didn't know what was going on in the coach's mind right now.
Miyuki nodded as heard Nabe's advice. 'He's getting anxious. Well, looking at the situation he would be. Some players gained their motivations back, but some are still not holding it together like Furuya which is why we have to stop them this inning if we want to win this'.
Before going to the field in their positions. Miyuki huddled everyone up and gave them a pep talk to encourage them. Kuramochi could also feel the tension in the team and gave props to Miyuki since he was trying to resolve this. Obviously, Sawamura was the only person who didn't need a pep talk since he has his personality.
Everyone went to their positions and got ready mentally to face Yakushi's batting.
Meanwhile in Yakushi's Dugout. "Whoever scores a run this inning will be given a week off from my training camp", announced Rei.
Immediately everyone's eyes shone, they needed to get this. Each player promised themselves they would score even Raichi. Sanada caught Raichi pumping himself up in a corner. He laughed not able to hold it in.
"KEHAHAHA…I'm going to get the time off. Then I'll get to practice my batting and not some useless drills", said Raichi pumping himself up, he looked back as he felt a touch on his back.
"Good luck", said Sanada snickering.
"D-don't tell this to Rei", said Raichi nervously as if he was caught doing a crime.
"I won't tell if you do my errands for a whole month", said Sanada.
Raichi was about to deny it but on second thought he agreed, It was better than having Rei know that he despised the training camp.
'This swinging maniac', thought Sanada shaking his head as he walked away.
