Chapter 18: I’ll do it!

The In-team match unknowingly came to the ninth inning, and the score on the field was still 18:1!

At this time, Sawamura has conquered everyone with his outstanding performance.

The two direct competitors, Tanpa and Furuya, all looked at Sawamura’s performance on the pitching mound stupidly.

Tanpa was shocked by Sawamura’s endless pitching skills, and Furuya Satoru was shocked by Sawamura’s amazing leadership ability.

In Furuya’s understanding, he always thought that the job of a pitcher was to throw, but watching Sawamura, he saw something different. He saw how a pitcher can lead a team forward.

There is a huge gap between first-year and older students, no matter which aspect.

But under the leadership of Sawamura, they were stubbornly entangled with the seniors and did not fall behind.

The game continued, and in the first half of the ninth inning, the freshmen attacked.

Ping!

It was the eighth line’s turn to hit, and the eighth batter narrowly hit the ball and the ball flew high at home plate.

Miyauchi effortlessly caught the ball in his glove.

“OUT!”

The eighth batter was Shutout.

It was the last round, and they hoped to repay Sawamura no matter what and continue the fight at Sawamura’s hands.

But this task, now it seems, is extremely difficult.

“Give up, we will never let any freshman on base again.”

Miyauchi said very seriously.

They are equally aware of the younger students’ plans.

‘Do you still want to continue the fight by Sawamura’s hands, in your dreams!’

Now that they have been disgraced by Sawamura, how could they give Sawamura a chance to continue to be arrogant?

Sawamura is the second Batter, and he has the only hit so far for the freshmen.

That is to say, there is no accident, the line in the ninth game should stay at the first Batter.

Now the second/third-year students don’t expect to get points from Sawamura. Before it’s Sawamura’s turn to Bat, they will end the game and show the majesty of the seniors, which is their goal now.

The next ninth batter, Miyauchi and Kawakami, followed suit, striking out the batter.

“STRIKE!”

“STRIKE!!”

“STRIKE!!! BATTER OUT!!!”

Two outs, no one on base.

The freshmen offensive seems to be coming to an end.

At this time, the first Batter turns to Bat.

“Come on!”

“It’s all on you!”

“Please!”

The first-year put their wishes on the first batter.

For them, the reason for extending the smooth play to Sawamura is not only to score more points but also to repay the debt.

You know, before Sawamura came on stage, they were on the verge of collapse. The baseball they practiced in middle school and the actual performance they got in high school seemed like nothing.

This made the young Players couldn’t help but doubt themselves.

At this time, it was Sawamura who stood up, led them forward, and guided them to show their strength, so that they would not be so embarrassed.

This kindness is already equivalent to guiding them to play on the spot.

In any case, they all want to repay Sawamura.

The first hitter, of course, thinks so too.

It’s just that he saw Kawakami, Miyauchi, the Maezono, and the other seniors…

He was inexplicably a little timid facing the eyes of these older students who terrorize people.

Can he really represent everyone and fulfill this wish?

“I~”

The first batter opened his mouth and was about to say something when he heard an impatient voice in the cowshed saying, “If you are afraid, why don’t you give me this opportunity.”

Um?

The Players looked dumbfounded at the young man who came out.

“Who are you?”

“Because you have been showing no loopholes, and I haven’t gotten a chance to play, it’s better to let me take care of it.”

“Graduate from Kanagawa Taiyouhine Middle School, Kominato Haruichi, please take care of me.”

Because Kominato Haruichi never got the chance, he could only sit in the bullpen honestly.

At this time, seeing the first Batter flinch a little, he stepped forward without hesitation.

Just kidding, the game is in the ninth inning, if he doesn’t play again, I’m afraid he won’t have a chance.

“First-year replacements, I’ll do it!”

In this way, Kominato didn’t wait for the others to respond and went on the stage on his own.

“Hey, who asked you to go up?”

“You kid is holding a wooden Bat, so take it seriously.”

The first-year players couldn’t help but complain.

“Just let him go, the Coach didn’t say anything else.”

At this time, Sawamura took the initiative to help Haruichi.

The guy is already hungry and thirsty to perform; what reason does he have to stop him?

Just like that, Kominato stood in the Batting zone.

Such a dramatic turn of events amused the audience!

“really interesting.”

“This year, there are not only Demon-King but also many interesting newcomers.”

“This is getting even more exciting?”

“Ha-ha!”

Faced with the sudden appearance of Kominato, Miyauchi and Kawakami have no information on him.

Miyauchi glanced at Kominato Haruichi’s short grip, which looked like a normal hit.

‘Then try an outside corner pitch first.’

On the mound, Kawakami nodded.

Whoosh!

Manger Ota looked at Kominato strangely: “There seems to be no mention of him among the freshmen who have performed better. Has he?”

Takashima Rei folded his arms across her chest and said with a chuckle, “graduated from Kanagawa Taiyouhine Middle School, and the hit rate in middle school is 73%, which is a little higher than that of Sawamura-kun.”

‘What?’

Ota looked at Takashima Rei in disbelief.

‘Better than Sawamura?’

On the strike zone, seeing Kawakami throwing the ball, Kominato, who was originally holding a short stick, suddenly changed to a long stick, and then aimed at the outside corner and hit it.

‘There is no better ball to play than an outside corner on the first ball for an opponent who doesn’t know how I play.’

Ping!

The white ball was hit and flew far into the outfield.

With a wooden stick, hit the outfield for a long hit.

Kominato became the second hitter after Sawamura in the freshmen.

Two outs, runner at second base!

While everyone was still amazed at Kominato’s excellent strike, Sawamura stepped into the strike zone.

It’s coming, it’s coming!

Whether you choose to escape or not, the gear of fate will always turn in the direction it should have.

The moment he saw Sawamura, Miyauchi really had the urge to Walk him.

‘But no!’

In the case of an 18:1 lead, you still have to walk the opponent’s batter, shouldn’t he be ashamed?

Besides, as seniors, they would never allow themselves to behave in such an unseemly manner.

Head-to-head!

It is the only choice for Miyauchi and Kawakami.

The eyes of the two became serious, and it was obvious that they were going to do everything they could to get Sawamura out.

In the Batting Box, Sawamura was equally surprised.

The desire of the Players, Kominato went to base.

How can he let him down?

This ball, no matter what, Sawamura will hit it.
