No outs, runner on First Base.

Seido High School Baseball Team's offense immediately displayed extraordinary attacking power and versatility.

Kuramochi's stolen base might not have been flashy, not as thrilling as a Homerun.

But the fans in the stands were still mesmerized, especially the die-hard supporters of Seido High School Baseball Team, who held Kuramochi in very high regard.

Next, Kominato Ryosuke and Kuramochi cooperated, using a hit-and-run.

The teammates of Wada High School Baseball Team had a very deep impression of Seido's second batter, who wasn't very tall.

Although he didn't seem to score in the last game, he certainly contributed to Aoki's eventual collapse.

Aoki threw over one hundred pitches in total, and he threw twenty-seven pitches just to deal with him alone, accounting for about a quarter of the total pitches.

Can you imagine?

After checking Kominato Ryosuke's previous records, they dared not underestimate this opponent even more.

So, before the showdown, the players of Wada High School Baseball Team were fully prepared.

But their preparations were destined to be in vain.

This time, Kominato Ryosuke had no intention of prolonging the at-bat; he decisively swung his bat on Ogata Jūjirō's first pitch.

Not only did he swing, but Kuramochi also started running towards Second Base a step ahead.

This decisive action left all the fans in the stands wide-eyed.

It made the players of Wada High School Baseball Team feel as if their painstakingly prepared punch had landed completely on cotton.

"A hit-and-run on the first pitch?"

Yasuda, stroking his chubby belly, his brows almost furrowed into a knot.

He was very surprised; the style displayed by Seido High School Baseball Team's players in today's game seemed like a completely different team compared to their style in yesterday's game.

Why?

Logically speaking, a team's style should be very fixed; it's difficult to change unless something special happens.

Little did he know that the teammates of Seido High School Baseball Team, after reading the media reports, were already feeling impulsive.

Although Coach Kataoka's tactics were similar to before, how they were actually implemented was still up to them, wasn't it?

As long as it was up to them, the teammates of Seido High School Baseball Team planned to give their opponents in today's game a good "welcome."

"Safe!"

"Safe!!"

Kominato Ryosuke successfully reached First Base, and Kuramochi successfully reached Third Base.

The supporters of Seido High School Baseball Team broke into smiles when they saw this.

Now that their First Batter and second batter were on base, the supporters of Seido High School Baseball Team also felt relieved.

They had extremely high confidence in the next batter to step up.

No matter what kind of pitch that guy named Ogata Jūjirō could throw, or if he had any hidden strength, he couldn't be Zhang Han's opponent.

"Pop!"

"Ball!"

"Ball!!"

The pitcher named Ogata Jūjirō surprisingly had no intention of confronting Zhang Han head-on, throwing only balls.

In this situation, even though the supporters of Seido High School Baseball Team knew that this was likely the only correct choice for Wada High School Baseball Team, they still felt as if something was missing.

What a pity!

Although Yuuki would likely score runs if he stepped up later, the runs he scored, the supporters of Seido High School Baseball Team always felt, weren't enough to make a statement.

Zhang Han and Yuuki had similar hitting averages.

But the number of Homeruns Zhang Han hit was several times more than Yuuki.

At this moment, what could be a more satisfying way to make a statement than a Homerun?

Just when everyone thought Zhang Han would be walked, and Seido was about to load the bases, Ogata Jūjirō suddenly threw a very provocative pitch.

"Pop!"

The ball almost grazed Zhang Han's chest as it flew into the catcher's mitt.

The umpire paused, hesitating whether to warn the pitcher.

But upon careful recollection, the ball was actually about five centimeters away from Zhang Han's chest.

The opponent might have intentionally used that pitch to force Zhang Han to back away.

If he issued a warning, wouldn't he be favoring Seido?

Ultimately, the umpire abandoned the thought.

He even wondered how he could have had such a thought.

Logically speaking, although that pitch was dangerous, it wasn't to the extent of warranting a warning.

"My apologies!"

Ogata Jūjirō said flatly.

Kuramochi at Third Base, his eyes turned red.

"This jerk, he must have done it on purpose."

In the dugout of Wada High School Baseball Team, Yasuda, stroking his large belly, with a benevolent expression, smilingly watched everything happening on the field.

"Four balls are not all the same. An aggressive four-ball walk, while not enough to strike out the batter, can leave a deep impression on subsequent batters."

Just do it, Ogata Jūjirō!

In the stands, the die-hard supporters of Seido High School Baseball Team widened their eyes, their angry gazes no longer concealed.

"What are they trying to do?"

"Are they planning to deliberately hit him with the ball?"

The die-hard supporters were still polite; Zhang Han's personal fans were already ready to scratch the Wada High School pitcher to death with their long fingernails.

How despicable!

"The opponent must be jealous that Han-san is more handsome than him."

"How disgusting, how can there be such a disgusting guy."

Everything happening in the stands was unheard by the pitcher and batter currently in the showdown.

Even if they heard it, they wouldn't care.

Ogata Jūjirō took off his cap and stroked his bald head.

He perfectly displayed his delinquent image.

It gave the impression that even if he actually hit someone with the ball, no one would probably find it strange.

And so, he threw the fourth pitch.

The location of this pitch was basically similar to the third pitch, deviating from the strike zone and thrown towards Zhang Han's chest.

The previous pitch still had some distance, but this pitch seemed to have no distance at all.

If Zhang Han didn't dodge, it looked very likely that he would be hit by this pitch.

Zhang Han shifted his feet, moving his entire body back by about thirty to forty centimeters, watching the baseball fly by with wide eyes.

The pitcher-catcher duo of Wada High School Baseball Team was quite satisfied with this result.

They had no chance of winning a head-on confrontation with Zhang Han.

But as long as Zhang Han retreated, their hopes would increase.

The batters who came up for Seido afterward would also feel lingering fear after seeing this confrontation.

However, before their joyful expressions could even appear on their faces, they discovered something incredibly unbelievable.

Zhang Han, who could have been walked to base simply by not swinging, actually swung his bat?

"Boom!"

Like a flash of lightning, the moment the baseball flew above home plate, Zhang Han decisively swung.

"Ping!"

The hit baseball flew high into the air.

"Outfielder!"

Wada High School's catcher, though incredibly surprised, still timely reminded the outfielder to field the ball.

The outfielder of Wada High School Baseball Team watched the baseball fly, seeing it about to reach above his head.

"I got it!"

Such a high fly ball had no difficulty; he should be able to catch it.

However, the baseball flew quite far, so he could only keep retreating.

Finally, the baseball seemed to have run out of momentum, and it was about to fall.

The joyful expression on the Wada outfielder's face was also about to appear.

With just three or four more steps back, he should be able to catch this ball.

"Thump!"

The outfielder of Wada High School felt his back suddenly hit something, preventing him from retreating another step.

He hit the wall.

As a result, he could only watch helplessly as the baseball flew over his head and landed in the stands in the outfield.
