Chapter 147 Chapter 45
This time Yamazaki can be said to be well-prepared and accurately bit the center of the ball. Of course, Narimiya's curveball is not that bad. In the end, Yamazaki hit the ball to the left field and landed a hit.
As a catcher, Lianji has been squatting and catching since he was a child, so he really can't run fast, and finally only reached third base.
On the mound, Cheng Gongming's face turned green. He had two hits in one and a half innings, and one of them was hit by a very annoying guy.
Ke sou! Ke sou! ! Ke sou! ! !
At this time, Cheng Gongming was no longer kicking the dirt on the pitcher's mound, but started to step on it crazily.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Harada quickly called a timeout.
Watching Harada walk up to the mound, Narimiya opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't speak, and even his little face became tense.
"It's just someone on the second and third bases. It's not a big problem. You have encountered bigger crises than this before. Haven't they all been resolved? Take it easy and have a normal heart. With your words, you will be able to get through this crisis with ease. of."
What Harada is most afraid of now is that Narimiya is not calm. He has not lost a point for a long time, and even has very few hitters. The strongest competitors are still very powerful.
It's obviously not possible to face this group of JuMo hitters with this kind of mentality!Although Harada doesn't know how Jumo, a dark horse team from Hokkaido, has such a strong lineup, the fact is that they really do!
And there is a high probability that Ming can be defeated. If Ming is not serious at this time, and still throws the ball with a somewhat drifting attitude, it is really possible to be blown away...
Although Su Qing still has the bottom line even if Ming is blown up, the lost points cannot be recovered. What if they can't solve Jumo's pitching formation? !
It's hard for Harada to imagine, Naruto will definitely collapse like last year, right?At that time, without him to comfort him, he couldn't imagine what it would be like.
"There's us behind you, just let them call, I'll accept everything."
After speaking, Su Qing pinched Gong Ming's angry little face...
If there is anything bad about Cheng Gongming, it is that his personality is not very good.The previous experience made him always want to bear everything by himself, and he is not willing to entrust his teammates. This is what Su Qing finds most difficult...
You must know that even if you are a Cy Young-level pitcher, it does not mean that you can strike out every inning. Trusting your teammates is a very important thing...
Little Angel does this very well, but Jiang Gu is a little bit worse. Of course, a large part of the reason for this is because Jiang Gu and Cheng Gongming are both talented pitchers, and their strong talents make them more willing to believe in themselves.
Another point is that Cheng Gongming is too focused on gains and losses. Sometimes it is impossible to see that he is a big-hearted pitcher, and he takes every hit very seriously.This pressure sometimes turns into motivation to make Cheng Gongming cast better and better.
But sometimes it will get worse. For example, this time, Su Qing believes that if Harada does not call a timeout, the next situation is likely to develop in a bad direction.
"I"
Cheng Gongming was about to say that he could do it, but was interrupted by Su Qing.
"Ming, this time, can you trust us? Many seniors are about to graduate. This may very well be the last time we play ball again. Can you trust us without reservation?"
How to improve Cheng Gongming's bad character is a big project, but Su Qing is not impatient at all, and is even happy. He feels like playing galgame in his previous life.
Of course, Su Qing doesn't think that he can "brainwash" Cheng Gongming to look like Cheng Gongming. He just hopes that he can become a better version of himself.
In fact, Su Qing believed that even without him, Cheng Gongming would have changed after experiencing a lot of setbacks and being baptized by society. But at that time, Cheng Gongming must have suffered a lot.How could he, a father, watch his son suffer?
Su Qing's words of moral kidnapping have gained the approval of many seniors. In fact, many people in the team know that Cheng Gongming doesn't trust the defense, but no one has said it. After all, Cheng Gongming is really too fragile. What happened last summer It seems to be still vivid.
But it doesn't mean that there is no resentment. Many seniors are working hard to express themselves, hoping to win Cheng Gongming's respect, but until now, not many people have won it.
Su Qing's words simply expressed the thoughts of many third-year players. Although everyone did not agree with Su Qing, they all looked at Cheng Gongming expectantly.
Cheng Gongming looked at so many expectant eyes, not only from the third-year players, but also from many second-year players, including Bai He.
In an instant, he thought of every detail of his previous playing days. Every time he was unhappy, everyone would comfort him. When he was angry, many people would come to persuade him.
The defenders always go all out to help him deal with the situation on the court, but he has not even said a word of thanks from the heart a few times
For a moment, Cheng Gongming felt that he was too much, and that he had double standards. He always felt that his family did not trust him enough, that he could not solve the attackers by himself, but how could he have trusted them.
Cheng Gongming bit his lip tightly.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!! I have never trusted you but I ask you to trust me unconditionally! This is really too much for me!!!"
Seeing Cheng Gongming so serious, the seniors in the third grade panicked.
"No, no, Chenggong, we have all seen your efforts. We have never blamed you, but we feel that Chenggong is too tired to bear the burden alone. Everyone wants to help you, but it seems that I can’t do anything now, I’m ashamed.”
Hirai Tsubasa waved his hands in a panic at first, and finally touched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"No matter what, I have done too much this year!! Thank you for taking care of me like this!! Thank you!!"
After in-depth self-examination, Narugong Ming finally understood when he became like this. He was not so conceited when he first entered the school, otherwise he would not have tried every means to form a championship team.
It was also because of the severe injury he suffered a year ago that made him very disappointed in himself, plus the words of the seniors at that time.This eventually led to him having to put an extremely serious psychological burden on himself if he wanted to come out.
It can be said that since then, he has been abnormal.But no one would admit that he was mentally abnormal. It was not until today that Cheng Gongming realized that he was really abnormal.
"The last game, please continue to forgive me!! I will trust you very much!! Please trust me too!! Thank you everyone!!"
"Let's make a big fuss together!!"
"Oh!!!!"
Everyone ran back to their defense zone with a smile on their faces.
"Ming, don't worry about shooting, with us here, these guys will definitely not be able to return to home plate and score!"
"Let them call over!!"
If it was the past, Cheng Gongming must have been in a terrible mood when he heard such words, but after unraveling his knot, his mood was warm.
We won't let them fight over~!
Xi Yingxiong, who was not easy to mess with at first glance, failed to continue Jumo's offensive.
Although the referee strengthened the penalty for Inomikata's strike zone, Harada soon figured out the new strike zone and continued to create opportunities in the new narrowed strike zone, allowing Nishi Hero to hit the bat several times. No hand, and the last attempt to bunt did not have any effect.
Harada was guarding against Jumo's forced scoring from the beginning to the end.
Xi Yingxiong's complexion was naturally as ugly as it could be.
"Two out!! Two out!! Let's finish them off in one go, Naru!!"
Cheng Gongming also stretched out his index finger and little finger in response.
"sorry!"
Back in the rest area, Hero Nishi bowed to Director Onizuka without saying a word. If he didn't apologize, he was afraid that he would be dead at the end of the game! !
"Go back and practice bunt for me!! Can't you bunt with a second stick? Didn't I add this item to your training menu?! Next time you make such a mistake, you should also go to the second army to reflect!! "
"Yes!! I promise I won't make such a mistake again!!"
Xi Yingxiong felt that he was suffering in his heart. Originally, the second stick was too much for him. His future type is not a tactical tool like Shirakawa, and Yamazaki can fight and run, so there is no need for him to execute tactical advances. Who knew such a thing would happen!
Xi Yingxiong sincerely hopes that this kind of thing will not happen again in this game. If it does happen, he can't solve it. Can short game be practiced in one day?It's hard for him to even hit the field, let alone make a directional strike.
"Senior Yoshibe."
"Ok?"
Yoshibe, who was about to play, suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. When he turned around, he found that it was Aoyagi, the sophomore who had stolen four of his bats. Naturally, he didn't have a good tone.
"Senior, give me a chance to play. With your ability, Senior Yoshibe, even if you can't play well, you can still get a walk. You can't even do this, can you, Senior?"
"Humph!"
Without giving a definite answer, Jibu went to the hitting area, and then Aoyagi squatted quietly in the waiting area, but stared straight at Cheng Gongming.
That kind of ball, I really want to hit it! !
The motivated Yoshibe is naturally in a bad mood, but it is undeniable that this is definitely a good opportunity to fight, a great opportunity to equalize or even overtake the score!
It would be a shame to waste such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! !As long as he can get a hit, one run is guaranteed, and two runs are not impossible. Yoshibe, who wants to stand out, will find a way to get on base even without Aoyagi's motivation. After all, he can only get on base with two outs. Under the circumstances, the score is lower.
Although it is now two out, Harada has not relaxed. This is a crisis situation where points will be lost if one mistake is made!Harada will never relax until he gets the last out!
The first ball is a curveball. Yoshibe doesn't like to play curveballs, which Harada has firmly kept in his heart.
"Strike!"
There was a look of disgust in Jibu's eyes, damn it, the catcher figured it out just by playing a mat.
This smart one-finger catcher is just annoying! !
Now he has to hit the curveball, what a nuisance!
Cheng Gongming's curve ball is far from being as easy to hit as it looks, because Cheng Gongming shoots from the left side, and the curve ball he throws not only has an upward trajectory, but also an oblique trajectory. Very unfriendly to batters.
If he hadn't been forced to, Yoshibe really didn't want to attack Narimiya Ming's curveball, he felt that he would not be able to hit it well.
If it doesn't work well, then destroy it.
Director Onizuka knows his disciple very well. As a left-handed hitter, Yoshibe is really difficult to hit when faced with Narumiya Naru's curveball. In addition, with such a precious opportunity, Director Onizuka does not want to be ruined by Yoshibe. Lost.
If you can't hit, find a way to pick a walk, or hit a rolling infielder in the direction of third base. With your speed, you can definitely hit the base.You have many methods, if you can't score, just wait for me!
Seeing Supervisor Onitsuka's last threatening gesture, Yoshibe couldn't help but shudder, obviously he will be graduating soon, why is he still so afraid of this bad old man!This unscientific! !
But Director Onizuka is right. He has many ways to get on base, otherwise he would not be worthy of standing in the third-base position. Not everyone can get on Jumbo's core line.
Seeing that Yoshibe had readjusted, Narimiya immediately threw the ball.
Damn it!Another curveball!Too much deception! !
"Pong!"
Harada was really shocked when he saw Yoshibe's shot, and he relaxed after confirming that it was just a foul ball that didn't fly very far.
In this way, two good goals are ahead, and the maneuverability is very much.
As soon as Harada hooked his hand, a new code was played, and Narimiya nodded without hesitation.
It's Senior Ya who knows him best, throwing the winning pitch when there are two strikes, this is the romance of a pitcher!
After being chased by two strikes, Jibu was not nervous at all.
Harada is different from other catchers who like to chatter and chatter. He is a very decisive catcher. After two strikes are chased, the third ball is a tiebreaker and the proportion of strikes is as high as 70%.
In other words, the third ball is very likely to be aimed at knocking him out, that is to say, there is a high probability that it will be .
Changeup!
"Snapped."
"ball."
The chief judge compares one hand with one hand and two with another hand, indicating that two are good and one is bad.
Harada wiped the dirt-stained ball on his shorts, but after thinking about it, he threw it away, and asked the referee for a new ball.
No swing?Is it because the curveball with the changeup is so ineffective?
In the past, Harada, who lost a ball, would most likely choose to match some better balls to tempt the hitter to swing, but this time he wanted to be reckless.
If you can't be fooled by the changeup, then go with the straight ball!
Harada decisively asked for a low straight ball, he wanted to see how Yoshibe would hit it this time!
In fact, Yoshibe has already guessed with a high probability that Harada will play a straight ball.However, the sudden speed of the ball still made Yoshibe uncomfortable. In addition, he was still in such a difficult position at the low inner corner. In the end, Yoshibe could only make a hasty shot, and he was very lucky to hit it.
It was just a foul ball that hit the home plate directly, and the referee directly raised his hand to indicate that it was out of bounds, which made Harada very upset, and it was only almost in bounds!
How could this keep this guy alive!
