Ace of Diamonds: The Last Piece of the Puzzle

"At the end of the first half of the eighth inning, Inami's pitcher and the infielders made a good play, causing Seido's eight batters to miss and hit an infield ground ball, directly scoring a double play."

"Narimiya stopped the bleeding successfully and didn't lose any more points, but he lost three points in this game, allowing Qingdao to break the situation!"

Ming pulled up the brim of his hat and ran down the pitcher's mound with gritted teeth. He suppressed his emotions to prevent himself from losing his composure on the field and followed the rest of the team back to the dugout. Hmm, that's really annoying!

Kurosawa and Miyuki returned to the rest area hand in hand, and immediately received the love and care from the seniors. The juniors are so reliable, and the seniors are so shameless sometimes!

"Ha, you two boys really did a good job!"

"The blow was very accurate, and everyone reaped the benefits!"

"Then you have to hold on well in the next game!"

"Go ahead and shoot, we are three points apart now!"

"I'll be counting on you for the next game too, Kurosawa!"

"I understand, seniors, you don't need to be nervous, I will end this game as soon as possible!" Kurosawa said calmly.

"Huh? You are too confident!" Chunsang ruffled Kurosawa's hair.

"Ah haha, but he looks like a trump card!" Kuramochi said with a wicked smile.

"Junior is really too immodest, be careful of overturning!" Liang Sang said with a smile and a knife in his hand.

"Let's go!" Team Zhe said.

Before leaving, Kataoka suddenly said: "Kurosawa, just let go!"

"Yes!" Kurosawa was surprised but replied immediately. Unexpectedly, the supervisor was also very nervous! It’s really hard to tell from that face!

After hearing the answer, Kataoka said to the others: "Although we are currently leading by three points, everyone should also know that no one can guarantee that they will win until the end of a baseball game. Everyone must always stay vigilant and be prepared to support the pitcher. "

"Yes!"

"Minano, how do you want to deal with them in this game! The fielding ball still strikes out!" Miyuki said with a smile.

"Hey! You drifted for a while, but the six sticks are still there!" Kurosawa teased, but he didn't refute.

As soon as he returned to the rest area, Ming entered the changing room alone and locked the door. The emotions he had suppressed could no longer be controlled and burst out.

"Damn it, damn it..." came the sound of smashing things inside, "Are you kidding, are you kidding, are you kidding, you bastard!" Ming continued to vent his anger, and in this way relieved himself of possible I was emotionally shattered. After I came out, I was still the overbearing Cheng Gongming.

Inami's rest area silently listened to the angry voice of his ace. He was a little worried but also knew that it would be the best result for him to vent his anger in time at this time.

Sure enough, it came out after a while, and said with gritted teeth: "It's much easier now! (?｀⊿′)?"

"Where is it so much easier?!" Bai He complained.

"No...it's true! Now I'm relieved. The game is not over yet, and we haven't lost yet!" If I say it's true, then it means it's true! Shouldn't you guys help me get out? (??v?v??)

"What? I didn't expect you to be quite calm!" Bai He said with a smile.

Everyone around them relaxed when they saw Ming like this. Carlos thought happily, I thought you would be more excited! But it’s already amazing that he didn’t show it on the mound!

Ming is worthy of being Inomi's group favorite and rival! Really no one can suppress Ming, except for some serious moments, but then only Coach Kunito and Yasan can control Ming!

"Hurry up and get me a bottle of drink!" Ming Ba said.

But since the ace's mood is fine, we should also consider how to attack and score, Kunitomo and Masaru thought at the same time.

"We still have two offensive opportunities, and I won't let the game end here!" Harada said seriously.

"At the beginning of the second half of the eighth inning, Inami's attack hit six-hit first baseman Yamaoka-san!"

"Can Inami seize the opportunity to break Aomichi's defense and score points this time? The first batter to come on the field is center hitter Yamaoka. It looks like he still has a good chance!"

"Senior Yamaoka, fight him out!"

"come on! Come on!"

Ah, it seems that I really want to fight out! But unfortunately, the more you want to fight, the more disadvantageous it may be to you! Yuxing thought gloatingly, and put his glove at the inner corner to hit him, Nanye!

Kurosawa nodded after seeing the gesture. It suits me very well, Kazuya!

"call out!"

"Yamaoka-san hit the first pitch, but unfortunately it was a fly ball to second base. The second baseman barely moved and caught it!"

Liangsang smiled and said: "Not bad, Kurosawa is very good!" He let me catch the first ball, he understands me very well! Just a few more balls would be nice, after all I have to stretch my muscles too!

"Kurosawa, we will catch it too!" We want it too.

"Kurosawa is fine, we have a lot of free time in the outfield!" Kurosawa was really helpless after hearing this. The seniors are really hard to take care of sometimes! ╮(╯▽╰)╭

"Seven-hit second baseman Hirai-san!"

Shichibashi Hirai stood in the preparation area and looked at Yamaoka passing by: "What a pity, I almost missed it!"

After hearing this, Yamaoka reminded in a low voice: "Be careful with the opponent's ball, it's very powerful!" He didn't say much for fear of misleading the opponent. However, I always feel that it is not that simple, but it is indeed a straight shot! What's going on? It was really an accident just now!

"What's going on?!" Kuniyou said seriously.

"I don't know, that one is really just an ordinary straight ball. At most, I control the ball very well and can throw it to the corners, but the ball speed is not fast and it is slower than the roar, but the power of the ball is heavier than that kid Furigu!"

"What?! You can't tell at all! Σ(?д?;)"

"Impossible, impossible! How can that kid be so powerful? Are you serious, Yamaoka-senpai?!" Ming widened his eyes in disbelief.

But everyone can only choose to believe that after all, Yamaoka is a heavy hitter. He said that if the ball is powerful, it is very heavy. In the last game, Ming was the only one to hit and was struck out, which has no reference value at all!

While everyone was thinking about it, the situation on the field had changed dramatically. In just a moment, he was caught by the third baseman.

"Ugh!"

"Eight-stick left fielder Fan!"

Fan looked at Hirai who came back and asked, "Is the power of the ball really that important?!"

"It's not heavy, but the ball speed feels very fast. I feel like it's 150!" Hirai said with a frown.

"what?!"

"Anyway, be careful!"

Hirai, who returned to the rest area, also encountered inquiries from his friends, so he repeated what he had just said.

"Huh? Is the ball speed fast? But we see that the ball speed is not very fast! Is it?"

"Yeah, it doesn't look pleasant at all!"

"I remember his highest ball speed was 145! I don't rule out that he has been hiding his strength all along. After all, he only passed one game and there is not much information!"

"Yup!"

"But then why can the power of the ball change? And it also becomes lighter?!"

Coach Kunito listened to the random speculations of a group of people and directly ordered the scorer: "You will measure the actual ball speed of that pitcher later!"

"Yes!"

Fan came on stage confused, what is it? Forget it, let me see it for myself!

Miyuki at home plate could see through the confusion in his eyes at a glance, and was very sure that he would observe the first pitch and not make any move. Now, in that case let's make it easier for our pitchers!

Miyuki watched Kurosawa place his gloves in the middle, come on! Let’s make a good number of goals first!

Oh my, Kazuya, you are so bold! But I like it very much. It’s so interesting to see the confused eyes on other people’s faces, unable to understand the secrets of my own pitching, and being teased by myself and Kazuya with the ball! (?w?)

"call out!"

"Qingdao's pair of pitchers are really bold! They actually hit a straight ball, but the ball was not fast and the batter didn't swing the bat! This scene is so similar!"

"Fan, what are you doing! Swing the bat!"

Fan was obviously stunned that he had just been solved by such an easy-to-hit ball. Or had they seen through his mind? ! But no matter what the reason is, the next bat must be hit with a swing! I want to see what's weird about your pitching!

Come on Minami! Throw him here to deal with it! Hee hee, if you don’t want to hit me, I’m going to waste the ball on you. It’s easier if you want to hit me!

Kurosawa nodded. It seemed that this person must have been confused by the previous few people! I have no idea what’s going on with my ball! It's better to just throw the most direct straight ball!

"Phew!" Kurosawa stuffed the ball into the inside corner and threw it low to the opponent.

"boom!"

The ball flew toward the pitcher's mound, but Kurosawa effortlessly caught it.

"Three outs and exchange of offense and defense!"

"In the second half of the eighth inning, Inomi came back without success and didn't allow anyone to get on base. Kurosawa faced Inomi's six-seven-eighth bats and quickly scored three outs with four balls! It's incredible. What's so magical about that straight ball? What’s the point?!”

"Yeah! That's great Kurosawa!"

"So handsome! It only took four balls!"

"I completely surrendered to the opponent!"

"It's a good shot!"

"But don't get carried away in the next game, hahaha!"

Everyone in Qingdao returned to the rest area talking and laughing. The audience was also cheering with joy. However, opposite Daomi, everything was gloomy and gloomy!

Kunito looked at the scorer and said: "How is it!"

“A ball speed of 140 looks normal!”

"How does it feel when you hit the ball, Van?"

"It didn't feel like anything. It wasn't very heavy or fast! It was just an ordinary direct shot, but the low inside corner was difficult to hit. After I hit it, it flew towards the pitcher's mound!" Fan was completely confused! , that ball feels quite easy to hit.

"Ha, you three have different opinions on how to hit one person's ball! You won't be fooled!" Ming said angrily, damn it! As expected, that pitcher had been throwing messy balls, and that was it in the last inning.

"Alright, go defend when you are ready! If you still want to go to Koshien, then defend this game with all your might!" Coach Kunito said coldly.

"Yes! Let's go!" Yes, Koshien! If you can't defeat Qingdao here, how can you get on that stage again.
