Chapter 139 37 Finals
The next day, Koshien, both teams arrived at the stadium early in the morning.
"Aww~, the genius Meng Mengliang is coming over to play. It's really hard."
Holding the gloves, Su Qing yawned before walking out of the stadium. At this time, there were only the staff of the stadium except Daoshi and Jumo. On the way they came, there were not many spectators outside the stadium.
At 06:30 in the morning, many people are still sleeping.
"Su Jun, let's go warm up."
After a long absence, Tada put on the catcher's protective gear and invited Su Qing.
"okay."
Su Qing forced herself to pull herself together, comforting herself silently in her heart:
After playing this game, it's over, and he can start his own neon travel plan!
"Those guys came too early. Don't they need to sleep?"
Looking at the occupied mound, Cheng Gongming couldn't help complaining, if he could warm up on the mound, who would want to go to the bullpen?
"Ah~"
Su Qing is quite used to it. Isn't it normal practice to warm up in the bullpen before starting a game?It’s just that the bullpen at Neon Stadium has no protective walls and is connected to the stadium.This made Su Qing very uncomfortable.
When Renji was throwing the ball, he glanced at the already bustling Inami bullpen, and felt relieved instantly when he saw that Harada was partnered with Narumiya Naru.
Although he was sure that Superintendent Guoyou would send Cheng Gongming to start, Lian Si was still worried that Superintendent Guoyou would not follow the routine and put Su Qing directly on the mound, so that they might really have nothing to play.
Warming up is a very slow process. Most starters can’t warm up as fast as the backup. Of course, the Neon kids can obviously do it because they pitch too often!
While Su Qing was still slowly looking for his status, Cheng Gongming had already started to test the changing ball.
Because Su Qing and Cheng Gongming threw a right shot and a left shot, and the gap between the bullpens was not big, Cheng Gongming could clearly see the tired expression on Su Qing's face.
"Hey, hey, wake up! If this goes on, the game will start soon!!"
Su Qing's eyes widened suddenly, even with the strength to throw the ball a little bit more.
"Bang!!"
Because of being frightened by Cheng Gongming, Su Qing missed the ball directly. Fortunately, Tada reacted quickly enough, and he had received too many balls from Su Qing. With rich experience, he easily pulled the ball back.
"Sorry sorry."
Su Qing touched her head and apologized to Tada.
"It's okay, the force of the ball just now was very good. Su Jun, come on!"
Seeing that Tada had said this, Su Qing was embarrassed to continue fishing.The main reason is that he is not starting today, but is just a backup, so it doesn't mean much to warm up his shoulders so quickly... In addition, he is very confident in himself and Narimiya, and thinks that defeating Jumo is within his reach, which makes it even more important. Touched.
The easy winning streak of the Jiaziyuan trip made Su Qing "underestimate the enemy" and just wanted to finish the game early and go on a trip.
After more than 40 minutes, Jumo's people finally let the pitcher mound out, but Cheng Gongming had lost the idea of pitching, and Su Qing had already returned to the rest area.
Wrapped in his beloved little blanket, Su Qing lay on the railing of the rest area, looking at the more and more crowded outfield stands, bored, he began to use the SC system to count how many free seats were left.
Some outfield stands of Koshien can be seated for free, and nearby residents usually come to the stadium early to occupy these free seats, of course, including other spectators who cannot buy tickets.
Tickets for the Koshien finals are hard to come by, and the stadium will be packed no matter how unpopular the team is playing.
Speaking of it, some people may not believe it. Jumo and Inomi are actually two unpopular teams. Inomi didn’t play many games in Koshien, and the only time he reached the final was 16 years ago, let alone Jumo. Jiaziyuan has never been scored.
Therefore, the duel between these two teams can also be called a duel between two dark horse teams.
"So why did we come so early, there are still more than 40 minutes before the start of the game, so boring."
In the past, when I played professionally, I couldn't play with my mobile phone, but my teammates were all talented people, so it was impossible to be idle. But now, my teammates are too diligent. There are only two people in the waiting room, Su Qing and Tada, and Tada is still there. Taking notes carefully.
Su Qing really wanted to play with her mobile phone, but she was afraid of being caught by some camera.
"Su Qing."
"Yes!"
Hearing Supervisor Guoyou calling him, Su Qing quickly stood at attention and responded.
I saw Superintendent Guoyou handing over an iron bat to Su Qing, who took the bat in confusion.
"You hit the coach stick and help everyone practice."
"Yes."
It turned out that it was to beat the coach. Su Qing really didn't do this kind of thing.
Holding the bat and asking for a bucket of baseballs from the ball boy at the stadium, Su Qing started his first "coach batting" in his life.
"Why are you hitting so hard! Where did the ball go!"
"I want a ground ball, not a fly ball, you bastard!"
It was the first time to hit the coach bat, and I used an iron bat that hadn’t been used for a long time. Every time Su Qing served the ball very hard, the seniors didn’t dare to say anything at first. The food was served, but the number of times was too many, and everyone finally couldn't help but began to smell the fragrance.
"Sorry, sorry, it's my first time. Wait a minute. I'll change the bat. The elasticity of the iron is too high."
Su Qing returned the physical bat to Guoyu Supervisor and took an overweight bat for practice from his equipment bag.This way you don't have to worry about pushing too hard.
Sure enough, after changing the bat, the situation is much better.
"Come to the outfield too!!"
Tsubasa Hirai shouted from right field.
"Okay okay."
Playing the coach stick is really hard work. After playing for almost 20 minutes, Su Qing was already covered in sweat and her arms were a little sore.
Fortunately, the staff had to clean up the court, and everyone was kicked off. Su Qing finally had a chance to rest.
"Whoo~"
"Su Qing."
"Yes!"
Once again being called by Guoyou's supervisor, Su Qing was really a little scared. The supervisor, I have to play and pitch today!If you hit someone again, it will be useless!
"I forgot to tell you, today you and Harada's stick matchup, you hit four sticks."
"Eh?! I hit four sticks?!"
Although Su Qing didn't have any special feelings for the position of the four-sticker, it was more popular for the four-sticker to be the strongest hitter on Nihong's side.
Although he is indeed the team's strongest hitter, Harada is also the team's most respected hitter. Just like the director of Kuniyu gave his ace number to Narimiya Naru even though he realized that Su Qing was stronger, Su Qing really didn't expect that Supervisor Guoyou would give up the position of four clubs, which represented a lot, to himself in the last game of Harada's high school career.
"This was requested by Harada. He hopes to create more opportunities for you. Don't disappoint his good intentions."
At this time, Harada had gone to the referee to submit the lineup for the match.
"Ok!"
Su Qing nodded solemnly. If he were in the position of the fourth stick, he might be able to perform better operations.
"Su Qing hit four sticks?!"
Jumo was also noisy after getting the competition table.
Lian Si looked at the freshly released match list with a complex expression on his face. Su Qing's swap with Harada really disrupted many of his plans, and invisibly added a lot of pressure to him.
Harada is very strong, but in terms of threat, he can't compare with Su Qing, but Harada's hit rate is really high!Don't look at how many strikeouts he had, but most of the strikeouts were eaten after the pitcher went berserk because of Su Qing.
Without Su Qing's random positive and negative buff, Harada's performance is definitely better than the current performance!Now the pressure on Su Qing is even greater.
"The starter is No. [-] pitcher Michio Ono, who I haven't seen much. I remember that he is good at the type of ball, which seems to be the finger. I found out that the pitcher who is slightly stronger than the neon basically has a finger. Ball."
"In fact, as long as you don't get cheated, most fingerballs are bad balls. As long as you can hold back and don't chase them, there's basically no big problem."
"I think it's okay to fight. It's so low. As long as you seize the opportunity, you will definitely soar to the sky."
"Who likes to play low ball like you!"
"You will also enjoy fighting in the future."
After the fly ball revolution, everyone will start to pursue the elevation angle. At that time, the lower the ball is, the better it is to hit.
During the chat about the schedule, the staff finally sorted out the court, and the referees also entered the field.
"Come out."
After looking at the time, Director Kunito pulled everyone out of the stadium.
At this time, the stadium was full of people, and everyone was waiting for the final showdown.
"Rice!!"
"Jumbo!!"
"Naomiya!!"
"Su Qing!!"
"Honyo!!"
After the players on both sides walked out of the player stands, everyone cheered for their favorite teams and players.
Harada, who stood at the front, glanced at the team and made sure everyone was in a good position, then he heard the referee's voice and shouted:
"Let's go!!"
"Yes!!!"
People from Daomi and Jumo quickly rushed onto the court and finally stood on the center line of the court.
"salute!"
"Please teach me a lot!!!"
"Sa, the final game of the National High School Wildball Tournament, Daocheng Industrial High School VS Jumo Daifujimaki High School, the game has officially started! I am the commentator Morishita."
"I'm Beiyuan."
"I'm Ikawa."
"Speaking of which, both teams are teams that have never won a championship in Koshien, especially Jumo, who entered Koshien in the first year, and they can reach the finals in the first year. It's amazing."
"Yes, especially playing in a place as cold as Hokkaido, everyone at Jumbo is obviously a very determined player."
"Daoshi is not bad either. It has been 16 years since they reached the finals last time. They have been waiting for this red flag for many years."
"No matter who wins this game, there will be one more team to win the Koshien! A new roll of cloth will also appear on the red flag!!"
On the court, Su Qing looked at the guest who was shaking hands with Supervisor Guoyou, today's kick-off ceremony guest, and asked Bai He who was standing beside him.
"It's our senior Inomi. It's the four bats of the seniors who scored in Koshien 16 years ago! I just retired from professional baseball three years ago. I didn't expect to invite him to perform today's kick-off ceremony."
Bai He sighed.
"The Jiaziyuan official is so considerate?"
"It's quite normal. Teams with history usually invite their seniors to do the kick-off ceremony. How can we say that our Daoshi ancestors were rich too."
"It's time to play."
"oh oh."
"Jumo is the first to attack in this game. Today's starting pitcher is Cheng Gong, and Su is still on the second base. However, before the game, Su warmed up on the pitcher's mound, so in this game, Su is It is very likely to play and pitch, let me wait and see!!"
After introducing all the players of Inomi, taking advantage of the gap before the game officially started, Morishita, who is Fuki Inomi, said a lot of predictions about Inomi's pitchers.
"One bat, shortstop, Seiji Yamazaki."
"Ha! Watch me hit your ball!!"
Harada couldn't help but frowned after hearing Yamasaki's provocation, and Narimiya Naru on the pitcher's mound was even more unhappy. After the air defense siren sounded and the referee issued the play ball instruction, he quickly threw the ball. First ball.
"ball."
Harada threw the baseball back to Narimiya, he always felt that something was wrong, he had never seen Jumo's one-hit so arrogant in the video before?
I saw that after the first ball, Yamazaki arrogantly extended his bat to Narimiya to challenge him.
At this time, in Jumo's rest area, Renji looked at Narugong Ming's cold expression and eyes that were about to burst into anger, and smiled.
Last night, Jumo’s Cheng Gongming strategy meeting was held.
"To sum up, Narimiya is a very strong pitcher. Without using some conventional methods, it will be difficult for us to attack him quickly."
"Then what can you do?"
"Although Cheng Gongming is very strong, he has two shortcomings."
"One, irritable. Two, a shaky start."
"You're talking about a pitcher who started three games at Koshien and has never allowed a run! If he starts off badly, he won't go clean."
"Yes, although it looks very stable, compared to the second half, Cheng Gongming's start is indeed not very stable. Daoshi's catcher generally seldom matches the corner ball at the start, and even the inside corner kick is much less. , I have observed many games like this."
"Even if it's unstable, this guy's ball speed hasn't changed at all."
Renji nodded helplessly.
"So the first shortcoming is very important. Narimiya is a very proud pitcher, and he is easily provoked by batters and even his own players. In the last game, I have evidence that Inomi's pitching Unhappiness happened during this period, which directly led Cheng Gongming to deny many of the catcher's pitches, and even the four-bad and explosive shots later were all because he was too angry.
I think this will be our opportunity. Once Naomi Narumi falls into anger, he will most likely not listen to the catcher, and his pitching will become very floating, and his ball control will plummet, causing four bad and explosive throws. Not impossible.If combined with the second weakness, Gong Ming will be angered at the beginning.
We are very likely to get some! "
Yamazaki implemented the tactics given by Renji very well, and started provoking Narimiya Ming like crazy. Narimiya, who didn't understand why, naturally went berserk and missed the shot, turning a good shot into a bad shot.
