Chapter 51: Play with You!

"So strong!"

In the auditorium, Kobayashi, the vice-chairman of the Brotherhood of Hearts, muttered to himself.

Needless to say, even Akagi's most die-hard supporter, the Brotherhood of Chi-hearts, has always felt that Akagi is a one-man team from Sawamura. If it wasn't for Sawamura's hard pull, Akagi's strength should be very good.

People who don't know Akagi may also be confused by Akagi's gorgeous record and the power that turned out to be. I think Akagi must have a few geniuses besides Sawamura. After all, a fence has three stakes, and a hero has three gangs. Especially in a team sport like baseball, unlike basketball and football, players can stay on the field all the time. For example, on a basketball court or a football field, if one player is particularly strong, then he can dominate the entire game and win. As long as he is really strong enough to be unmatched by others, it is not uncommon to do so.

But baseball is different. Baseball is a quintessential team sport. Even as a pitcher with the most important position, it's hard to win with a bunch of pit teammates when you're unmatched. To give the simplest example, even if you throw the ball so that the batter can't hit it, at least you have to have someone who can catch your ball. Not to mention hitting, there is only one person's line, no matter how strong that person is, it is easy to target him. Needless to say, the four evils of the offense, the decisive battle in the corner, the safest way, I will walk you from afar, is it alright?

I don't even give you a chance to hit you, how can you score?

So, baseball is definitely not something that one person can play.

But even so, the brothers of the Akagi Brotherhood still believed that Akagi was Sawamura's one-man team. There's no way one person can save a team, as long as he's not Superman, there's just too much that one person can't do in baseball.

A single person cannot guarantee the victory of a baseball game, even if that person is Sawamura! But the power of Sawamura is here. Because of his joining, Akagi completely turned into another team.

This is the charm of ace!

They never thought that Sawamura didn't stand on the pitcher's mound, and Akagi still had such fighting power. Substitute players of the suppressed Tenryuji Middle School have no temper at all. They didn't even have a single hit!

In the cowshed of Tenryuji Middle School.

The players of Tianlong Temple all had heavy expressions on their faces, unable to speak.

As players who train together, they naturally know the bottom line of the strength of their own substitutes. Although there is a big gap between the main force and the substitutes, the gap should not be as big as 3:0 in three games, right?

"interesting!"

The eyes of the old fox Yamano became very bright.

Before, even he had never thought that Akagi would be so strong when Sawamura was not a pitcher.

"That backup pitcher is called Xiaomu. I remember him, and his strength seems to be average."

The assistant coach of Tenryuji said with a frown.

The old man Yamano shook his head: "Not only the pitcher, but also the strong defense. In terms of defense, this team is no less than our main force. It is unimaginable in just one and a half years."

As the old fox spoke, he deliberately glanced at the cowshed of Akagi Middle School.

At this time, he had to doubt that Akagi actually had an excellent coach. Probably as soon as he enrolled in Sawamura, he determined Sawamura's status and the development direction of their team.

With Sawamura as the core, support the pitcher with a strong defense and lead the team forward. As long as the pitcher has the strength, the strength of this lineup will increase exponentially. Although Xiaomu is only in the first year, he is undoubtedly powerful.

"Hehe, what a surprise."

The old man Yamano narrowed his smiling eyes just like he had picked up a treasure.

"Coach, what should we do?"

The assistant coach said with an ugly face.

Even if they Tenryuji gave up this victory,

But being slaughtered by a large score is really unreasonable. After all, Tenryu Temple is a national tycoon.

"It doesn't matter, that pitcher is not Sawamura, the little guys should be familiar with his ball by now. Next, let's test how Akagi's defensive lineup, which has been honed for a year and a half, has how much combat power it has. ."

At the beginning of the fourth inning, the batters from Tianlongsi Middle School became familiar with Xiaomu's ball, and the ball became more and more accurate and faster.

"Ping!"

After one out, Tenryuji Middle School hit the first hit with two, followed by three and four onslaughts.

Almost in a blink of an eye, Akagi lost two points.

Xiaomu's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but turn his head.

"Let him call!"

From left field, Sawamura raised his gloves high and shouted.

"Let him fight and we'll stop it."

"One out! One out!!!"

"Xiao Mu, it's up to you!"

The score was 3:2. Akagi, who was chased by Tenryu Temple, did not change his generals, but instead showed a gesture of fearlessness.

On the pitcher's mound, Xiaomu looked back at Sawamura, a warm current flowing in his heart.

Eijun-senpai!

The hand holding the ball, hold on tight. Xiaomu's eyes became firm again. He already understood what Sawamura meant. As long as he was two points behind, Sawamura-senpai had already made up his mind and handed the field to himself.

"I won't let you down!"

"Whoosh!"

After being beaten by two points, instead of collapsing, Xiaomu showed great fighting spirit.

This time, the audience, who had been dumbfounded, became even more frenzied.

"Akagi! Akagi!!!"

For the first time, really the first time, they did not cheer for Akagi because of Sawamura, but were really moved by the team of Akagi.

In the cowshed of Tianlong Temple, the old fox Shanye Boguang smiled contemptuously.

"It's really interesting children, then I'll come and play with you."

With that said, he gave a signal to the four bats who were staying at second base on the field.

"Tianlongji Middle School, change players."

Substitution, this time.

With a subconscious frown, Sawamura saw that Tenryu Temple had changed into their team's Scud Hattori.

Main catcher Hattori, Scud Hattori.

Tianlong Temple, have you made up your mind, are you going to score another point here?

Sawamura's expression did not change, but he also sneered in his heart. Is it too late to get serious now?

"Ignore the runners and focus on the batters!"

Despite what Sawamura said, Komaki may not be affected. A substitution affected Xiaomu's mentality and attracted a lot of his attention.

"Ping!"

The distracted Xiaomu was inevitably hit by a combo and lost a hit again.

The fifth batter went to first base, and Hattori on second base also advanced to third base.

One out, someone at first and third base!

It was the batter's turn to get the sixth stick from the Tenryuji substitute.
