章節 21: The offensive nature of the Saigo's game
However, we can't lose the game in such a miserable way. The spring competition is a reference or a microcosm of the summer competition, and if our team goes out in the spring competition in the same way as being bloodily abused, it is not a good thing for the whole team of Saigo High School.
Even if they lose the game, they will make Seidou High School crumble two or three teeth, this is the only expectation that Coach Nishikado has for his players.
"YES!!!"
"Top of the fifth inning, Saigo High School's attack, eight batters, pitcher, Jonouchi-Kun"
Steady, as long as we can keep it steady, we can win this game, that's the only thing Inoue was thinking when he stood on the mound.
Compared to the 2nd year Tanba-senpai.
the 3rd-year Inoue-senpai is much more mature and stable than Tanba-senpai in terms of mentality, not being arrogant because of a big advantage, not breaking down because of a big disadvantage, completing the duties he should accomplish, and doing what is within his ability, this is what Inoue Koji requires of himself and what Inoue Koji defines as his position in this team.
Inoue Koji is well aware of his strength.
Every time he goes up the mound.
He always reminded himself internally that
(I should be careful with my pitches and never make the slightest mistake.
Do not ask for merit, but ask for no-fault.)
Strictly speaking, this thought of Inoue Koji is not the thoughts of an ace, and Inoue's awareness is not the posture of an ace who stands on the mound with the hopes of the whole team on his back.
The so-called ace pitcher is the one who must be able to carry the expectations of the whole team and fight bravely at certain moments.
And that's exactly what happened.
Inoue Koji is just as prone to having his opponents find such gaps in his game.
Inoue Koji did not dare to let go of the attack.
"Phew."
In that pitching moment.
There will be reservations, there is that gap where it is possible to find.
"Swish!!!"
"BANG!!!"
"Oh oh oh, the first ball was a low outside fastball, the eighth batter, Jonouchi-Kun caught the trajectory of Seidou's ace Inoue-Kun's shuuto and successfully pulled it to the left-field direction!!!"
"Whoosh."
"LEFT!!!"
"Snap!"
"Safe, Safe!!!"
With a precise pull and a strike that perfectly caught the center of the ball, Saigo High School ace Jonouchi meticulously caught the trajectory of Inoue-senpai's shuuto. With a precisely guided hit, the ball was pulled out and he successfully stepped on the first base, and the signal to attack was sounded just at the beginning of the top of the fifth inning.
"Good hit, Jonouchi."
"Well done, Jonouchi-kun."
"Don't give up, the game is far from over, it's only five points, you can just catch up."
"Go on, Saigo High School."
It's not a huge support group, that is not a very loud support sound, but can completely feel the hot emotions.
Whether it's the players on both sides of the fans in the stands.
they are unwilling to see the defeat of their team here!!!
"Ninth batter, center fielder, Takahashi-Kun."
"Even if it's a stolen base or sacrifice bunt, concentrate on the batter, Inoue-senpai, I'll take care of the runner!
At the home plate, Chris-senpai looked at Inoue-senpai on the pitcher's mound with a solemn look and gestured out a code word with a calm expression.
Inoue-senpai on the mound also nodded gently.
It's only first base, there is no need to worry, the difference is enough, the important thing is to get the number of outs that should be taken, and that's all.
Inoue-senpai was very clear in his heart.
Unfortunately, sometimes, when you think there is no problem, it is the time when the problem is going to come.
"Phew."
"Swish"
"Snap"
"Strike!!!"
After a low fastball on the outside on the first pitch, which precisely avoided the batter's bat and was drilled into Chris-senpai's mitt behind him, Chris-senpai was decisive on the second ball with a pitch that clung to the inside corner.
This type of pitch is similar to a cutter but is the opposite of a cutter.
It is the same as the cutter.
The grip is roughly the same.
The subtle differences in grip and the direction of finger force at the moment of the strike are different.
This results in two seemingly identical but fundamentally different variations.
In the same type of lateral change, Inoue-senpai's shuuto does not have as high-speed refractive change as Shigeno's, and the arc of refraction is not as exaggerated as Shigeno's cutter.
However, as a 3rd-year ace Inoue-senpai's most successful deciding pitch.
In terms of refraction variation.
Inoue-senpai has his unique insight.
Delicate and delicate variations.
As long as the batter can't catch the center of the ball, it's a victory!
This is Inoue-senpai's pitching philosophy.
The middle finger and index finger together, the tiny sensation on the fingertips.
Inoue-senpai's right arm, which was thrown down in a flash, was a step that moved forward and poured all the strength of his body into his fingers.
"Phew."
Flashing moment.
A flash of light from the tip of Inoue senpai's finger darted out.
The moment the white light dazzled.
The straight path of the ball, which was close to the center of the field, suddenly made a refracted arc and flew towards the inner corner when it entered the home plate.
"Very good path!"
The moment Chris's eyes flashed a flash of joy.
A black shadow came strongly.
That flung up the ball front.
"Swish."
Amid Senior Chris's eyes that had suddenly contracted, an ear-piercing metal scraping sound rang out.
"Bang!!!"
A rigid and violent roar sounded the moment.
"Ohhhhhhhh!?"
Amidst the astonished looks of the thousands of spectators in the stands.
"Whoosh"
A white light rushed from the home plate to the sky.
Between the dazzling movement of the sky, it sped towards the center-left field.
"Center fielder!!!"
A collision of almost 0.5 seconds.
It will be the moment when the small ball flies out.
At home plate, Chris-senpai quickly stood up and shouted in the direction of center field.
"It's already in pursuit, isn't it?
In the direction of center field, the moment the small ball flew out.
As a center fielder, Isashiki-senpai reacted quickly after 0.5 seconds, and at the moment of making the corresponding judgment, he decisively retreated and ran.
He speeds towards the center-left field center line.
Looking at the flashing ball overhead.
Isashiki-senpai, who was running wildly at the bottom, gritted his teeth and tried to follow the ball on the top.
However, unfortunately.
Isashiki-senpai's reaction was not too fast.
After all, he could not catch up with the ball that was perfectly caught in the center of the ball.
At the moment when the ball was still three positions away.
"Phew."
"Pop."
The ball fell with a standard arc and landed in the middle of the left-center field with a dull thud.
