Survive with the beautiful girl

state--

The metal bat made a clear and pleasant sound when it hit the baseball.

Tabata Hidenori immediately dropped the bat and rushed to first base as fast as he could without looking back.

"Single!"

There was a burst of warm applause in the stadium.

Tabata Hidetoshi, who was sliding to the bases with his legs bent, bounced up from the base and clenched his fists excitedly. His trouser legs were covered with the black soil of Koshien.

Although the opponents in this game have no flaws in both offense and defense in terms of historical records, their level is a level higher than those opponents of Sanada Kita High School in the past.

However, the strength of the boys' high school team has also improved significantly compared to last year. Their advantage is that the arrival of ace pitcher Lan Yuan Liu Cheng has had a huge impact on the team.

The goal has changed from the initial "entering Koshien" to the current "national domination". Every victory on the field will bring them confidence, and every hit they get from Liu Cheng during team training will give them the courage to decisively swing the bat when facing an ace pitcher.

No matter how strong the opponent's ace pitcher is, Tabata Hidenori firmly believes that his own ace pitcher is stronger than him.

When Liucheng first transferred to the school, they also asked Liucheng why he chose to transfer to the boys' high school.

The reason was unexpectedly simple, "Because I feel very happy watching you guys play. Those baseball powerhouses have strict rules and I don't really want to go there. Our boys' high school is pretty good too. The way everyone tries to save the ball on the field is really cool~"

Second batter Tanaka Yoshitake comes on the field. Although he is usually a bit of a chuunibaku and likes to make a fuss, he is surprisingly well-behaved when it comes to serious matters.

Just like the first batter does not necessarily need to be a player who is very good at hitting long, as long as he can calmly choose the right ball and hit it successfully, he can stabilize the morale of the team. What the second batter needs is a player who can follow the first batter in hitting a hit.

The tacit understanding that developed between Tanaka Yoshitake and his good friend Hidenori since childhood enabled him to serve as the team's second batter.

When facing Osaka Kiryu's ace pitcher who threw two consecutive strikes, he still decisively chose to swing.

When the bat hit the flying ball, the crisp sound made Guan Guangmei's heart tremble.

He immediately turned around to look at the white ball that had passed by the edge of his outfielder's glove, spun into the foul area, and was still rolling on the grass. He felt unprecedented pressure.

This was the first inning, the opponent had already hit a double, and the third batter was the former strong hitter of the boys' high school...

Guan Guangmei suppressed her smile, took a deep breath and kept her attention focused, not daring to be careless or slack off.

Perhaps the light of Lanyuan Orange blocked the growth of these people, and they had already become so powerful quietly.

The opponent's attack made no mistakes and they went all out from the very beginning.

When the fourth batter, Lan Yuan Liu Cheng, picked up his bat and flexed his wrists as he walked to the batter's box, a call like the mountains and the sea rang out in the stadium.

Guan Guangmei has already seen the nervous and hesitant look in her catcher's eyes. This cannot go on any longer. She must disrupt the opponent's batting rhythm. Their condition today is really too good!

Just walk him. There is a runner on third base. I would rather walk Liu Cheng and let him force to reach base than take the risk of him making a mistake.

"Bad ball!"

"Bad ball!!"

"Bad ball!!!"

Listening to the referee's emotionless judgment behind him, Liu Cheng couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh of frustration.

The opponent's purpose of walking the ball was too obvious, and the pitches they threw were all ridiculous and difficult to hit.

After enduring three attempts without swinging the bat, he once again took a stance ready to hit the ball, anticipating the path of the next pitch that the opposing pitcher would throw.

Lead the bat, bend your knees, and smoothly lead the body's center of gravity to the back foot; turn your knees outward toward the pitcher to obtain the best hitting angle and vision, and keep your head, shoulders, abdomen, hips, and knees in a vertical line on the ground...

The bat swinging techniques that he had chewed over thousands of times flowed through Liucheng's mind. His left knee sank suddenly with his body, and he swung the bat so hard that it almost scraped the ground.

Even when the opponent chooses to throw a bad ball, Orange still chooses to swing.

Although the ball was not in a good position, he still used his extraordinary strength to scoop the ball out, watching the small white ball fly high and far until it passed the home run wall and finally fell into the gloves of the swarming spectators.

coax--

Wow--

what--

The audience's exclamations, shouts, and cheers rang out one after another, instantly igniting the entire venue.

"Grand Slam!"

"How daring of you to choose to hit the ball at this time!"

"Si Guoyi!"

"This is Mr. Orange! As expected, it's Mr. Orange! As expected, it's Mr. Orange!"

The commentators in the commentary booth exclaimed in amazement one after another. Amid the cheers of the crowd, Liu Cheng dropped the bat, untied the batter's gloves, and slowly started jogging towards the first base.

He raised his right hand high and pointed it to the sky, looking at the audience seats on all sides to celebrate and express his gratitude. When he rounded third base, he deliberately high-fived the baserunning coach who was smiling as brightly as a chrysanthemum next to third base. When he ran back to home base, he was rushed up by the three batter teammates who had run back to home base early and hugged him in celebration.

Kneeling slam!

Such a wonderful start inspired the confidence of all the teammates waiting in the rest area to win the championship.

The continuous, crazy and passionate shouts from the audience did not stop for a long time. Pushed by his teammates, Liu Cheng once again walked out of the rest area to thank them for their enthusiastic cheers and applause.

When he returned to the rest area, his teammates surrounded him excitedly again. They lined up one by one to celebrate and high-fived. When Liu Cheng walked to the next person, they patted him on the butt to cheer him up. Liu Cheng turned around in annoyance and patted him back. The scene in the rest area suddenly became chaotic and filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

The sound of drums booming could be heard from the school's cheering seats. The tenor band was almost nonexistent, so the enthusiastic students brought the bass drums used in the school anniversary celebration and beat them quite vigorously.

Although they were unable to play inspiring tunes like the Osaka Kiryu cheering team in the opposite cheering seats, the tenor band was not inferior to them in momentum and even slightly surpassed them.

This was completely different from the commentators' predictions before the game that the two sides would be evenly matched, with the score difference remaining at least 0-0 or 0-1 until the middle of the game.

Until the end of the fifth inning, Sanada Kita High School lost 3 points to the opponent in the second half of the fifth inning, but still maintained a 7-3 lead.

As the game entered the top of the sixth inning, Sanada Kita High School had consecutive hits and scored 2 points in one go, bringing the score to 9 to 3.

In the bottom of the sixth inning, facing the high-spirited boys' high school players, Osaka Kiryu's batter made a bunt error and was caught by pitcher Liu Cheng, who threw to second base for a kill and then to first base for a kill, creating a bunt and triple out situation. The two sides then exchanged offense and defense in the top of the seventh inning.

The fourth batter Orange came on the field again. With two outs and one man on second base, he was walked by the pitcher and sent to first base.

The fifth batter, right-handed hitter Toshiyuki Karasawa, lowered the brim of his baseball cap and came on the field in a low-key manner. Tate Hiromi let Liu Cheng choose to catch his own choice, which made him feel underestimated and decided to let Osaka Kiryu see his strength.

With runners on first and third base, Toshiyuki Karasawa faced Osaka Kiryu's ace pitcher with a short bat and chose to bunt the ball out.

The players of Osaka Kiryu were caught off guard, and the already tense mood became chaotic again. Yoshitake Tanaka on third base ran straight to home base with the help of Toshiyuki Karasawa covering him. Seeing this, Liucheng on first base immediately made an exaggerated movement to attract the attention of others and ran to second base with all his strength.

"SAFE!"

"SAFE!!"

Double stolen bases!

“Wow!

Classic one-three-double stealing!

Sanada Kita Boys' High School successfully stole 1 point despite the tight defense of Osaka Kiryu High School!

The offense and defense switched, and the game entered the bottom of the seventh inning!

The score is 10 to 3, and the difference has reached 7 points!

I don’t know if Sanada Kita Boys’ High School can defend well and continue to maintain their lead and win the game.

Or will Osaka Kiryu be able to fight back, break through the blockade of pitcher Aihara, and create a miracle to bring the game to the ninth inning? "

There was thunderous cheers from the audience. Liu Cheng took his special pitching gloves from the coach and put them on. After taking several deep breaths, he suppressed his excitement, kept calm, and returned to the pitcher's mound again.

The thumbs-up from catcher Yuan Zhi in front of him made him smile knowingly.

Liucheng looked seriously at the faces of the girls who were sitting in the specially designated seats in the center opposite him, their faces also filled with excitement and joy.

He recalled every detail of his life. Countless young people who were pursuing dreams, hopes, high school youth, championships, glory, life, future... these fancy nouns gathered here to defeat 98% of high school players.

Last year, he was beaten here but now he is even stronger!

Strikeout!

Still a strikeout!

With each player being eliminated, the cheers from the stands around the stadium grew louder and louder.

Osaka Kiryu applied for a substitute, and the opponent forced a hitter to come on the court.

Liucheng untied the pitcher's glove on his right hand, changed his pitching posture and put it on his left hand.

His ability to shoot with both hands allows him to take on more pitches, and even if the batter in front of him is the strongest, he is confident that he can strike him out.
