Chapter 94: Chapter 94: 1 Second!

Two Outs, no one on base.

The third Batter was Mima of the Hakuryu HighSchool.

Mima, who stepped onto the strike zone, stood directly on the sideline close to the plate.

'Um?'

This action was too unexpected.

Miyuki glanced at Mima, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

In Hakuryu's team, the strongest Batter is not their fourth Batter, Takehara. But this one standing in the strike zone now, the second-year Mima.

Not every team puts the strongest Batter in the fourth.

In the case of Hakuryu, their lineup arrangement is also to match the specialty of their team. The main purpose of placing Mima in the third batter place is to ensure that he is sent back to home plate in the first inning.

In fact, this is the case with any lineup arrangement, no matter how it is changed, it is all to increase the probability of scoring for one's own side!

'Such a Batter is difficult to solve just by the game calling as before.'

'His stance was glued to the sideline of the strike zone, seemingly to block Tanpa-senpai's inside corner Pitch. But he did not rule out the possibility that he used such a front to confuse us.'

'In this case, the first ball might as well try it out.'

Miyuki very decisively stopped the glove at the inner corner!

Facing the batter's stance close to the sideline of the inner corner, Miyuki chose the inner corner to catch the ball very aggressively. Not at all concerned about possible traps and Dead balls.

It is inevitable to explain these two sentences here, the batter is clinging to the touchline in the inner corner, ready to strike. On the surface, he doesn't seem to have a sweet ball at inside corners if the Pitcher threw a Straight directly to the inside corner.

This is not the case in reality.

It is indeed not easy for the batter to swing to the inside corner pitch, but this also blocks the pitcher's inside corner Pitch to a certain extent. Because the batter is too close to the inside corner line, if the inside corner pitch comes over, it is likely to hit the batter giving him a Dead ball.

Faced with this possibility, pitchers will inevitably be tied when they throw to inside corners. In this way, you may not be able to throw any sharp balls at all, and instead throw some sweet balls.

Of course, such a position itself requires a lot of courage. As long as the pitcher is not naturally Idiot, he is definitely not willing to throw the ball. But it also does not rule out the possibility that the pitcher has a poor ball-handling error or that the pitcher has a bad personality. You must know that a hard baseball of 134 to 140 km/h hits a person is quite painful, not to mention the injury. Without great determination and courage, the batter would not dare to stand like this.

Choosing such a stance is a bit like an imposing duel in a boxing ring. When one side puts on a desperate stance, if the other side cannot show the same determination, it will only be forced to retreat step by step until they collapses.

This is also the reason why Miyuki directly plays the inside corner Pitch!

Since the other party has made it clear, they naturally have no reason to back down.

On the mound, Tanpa's eyes became firm.

'I am the Ace of Seidou! Representing the team, standing on this pitching mound. Right now, how can I retreat?'

With a bite of his teeth, Tanpa pitched the ball.

Whoosh!

The small white ball flew straight over as if it were the target Batter.

On the strike zone, Mima didn't move.

SNAP!

The baseball got into Miyuki's open glove.

"BALL!"

Facing the provocation of Mima, Miyuki and Tanpa's battery, instead of flinching, threw a Ball to the inside corner.

This ball almost touched the front of Mima's shirt and flew into Miyuki's gloves.

"Nice ball!"

Tanpa's toughness made Miyuki very pleased.

However, seeing Mima in the strike zone, he felt that he could not be happy no matter what.

Instead, he got goosebumps.

Facing the ball just now, Mima did not take a step back, not even raising his eyelids.

Such Batter are like a mountain, standing in front of them.

The most terrifying thing is that after seeing Tanpa's pitch just now, Mima still has no intention of changing his position.

This way, Miyuki's next ball distribution is a really bad choice.

With the current stance of the Mima, the outside corners have become like the center of the strike zone, which cannot be used at all.

Only in the inner corner and near the center can decide the outcome!

After thinking about it, Miyuki gave Tanpa a signal for a low inside corner pitch.

Whoosh!

Tanpa threw the ball, and this time he was a little shaky with the ball, and the ball went wide.

'Bad~'

Miyuki secretly groaned badly.

Now, the ball was wrong, no it was terrible. Especially if it deviates to the outer corner, for Mima who is standing on the sideline of the inner corner, it is equal to a pitch to the middle and a bit low!

Ping!

Of course, Mima would not let go of such a sweet ball. He directly swung the bat and smashed the ball out like an arch.

SNAP!

The baseball crossed Seidou's defense and flew to left field.

Sawamura, who is the left fielder, judged where the ball would land in advance and waited before the baseball hit the first spot in the outfield.

Pick up the ball, look up.

Sawamura saw a very incredible scene.

Mima has already crossed first base and ran to second base!

'Crazy!?'

Sawamura certainly wouldn't be polite, passing the ball to second base.

"Hyaa-ha-haa!"

Kuramochi went to the second base to fill up and received the ball from Sawamura, and he wanted to touch Mima.

"Thank-"

He wanted to say thank you for the hard work, but before he could say anything, he saw that Mima had already pounced, and his hand touched the base bag.

"SAFE!"

The ball lands in the infield and bounces into the outfield, Sawamura received the ball after rebounding!

This time is only five or six seconds in total, plus the return is only about seven seconds!

Mima actually ran to second base?

This Su*ker is too fast!

Most of Seidou's players looked at Mima who was on second base in disbelief.

Sawamura touched his nose in embarrassment. He was also responsible for the ball just now. If it is Sakai or Shiratsu, they might be able to stop the ball without waiting for the baseball to land a second time.

In that case, I might be able to touch and kill Mima.

However, the boy is too fast!

Mima patted the soil on his body and stood up with a calm expression on his face.

Two outs, runner at second base!

The Catcher, Miyuki, looked at Mima, with caution in his mind.

This speed, even stealing third base, is not impossible.

The rest area of ​​the Hakuryu Academy.

Coach Sasaki was holding the stopwatch in his hand with a smile on his lips.

'6 seconds 83!'

Rush directly to second base from the strike zone, this speed is not bad.

I just don't know if this speed is enough to shake Seidou's pitcher.

Mima's parents are excellent track and field athletes, and Mima has inherited their genes very well. In terms of running, it is estimated that he has searched all over the Nation, and it is difficult to find someone who can match him.

'Ignore the runners and focus on the batters!'

Although Mima's speed made people very concerning, Miyuki quickly judged what was the most important thing right now.

Two Outs now!

As long as you get the batter, it doesn't matter if Mima steals the base to the home plate.
