Chapter 344 The Best Player (Finale)
Houston Rocky Stadium, USA.
"Dear audience, dear audience, now is the final of the latest World Baseball Classic. The two teams are the dark horse Chinese team that has come all the way up, and the veteran powerhouse of the World Baseball Classic, the island team."
"At this time, the game has reached its final moments, and the two teams are tied at 3:3..."
"Qiang!"
Before the commentator could finish his words, the sound of metal was heard, and a small white ball pierced into the sky and flew away into the distance.
The Chinese team, wearing red jerseys, looked at the baseball flying farther and farther away, and felt helpless.
Even if they wanted to stop the baseball, they had no other way.
Their defense is too far forward, so it's not realistic to run over now.
There are two outs now, but the bases are loaded.
If the baseball falls to the ground, it will be a very favorable situation for the island team.
And looking at the ball's posture, it seems that it is not as simple as a hit, but it has the potential to fly out and become a home run.
"It went flying! The sixth batter of the Island team, center fielder Isashiki, hit the ball from the Chinese team's pitcher Zhang Zhihai far away! It looks like the Island team is going to score this time!"
After years of experience, Jun Isashiki has long become a hitter that the island team can rely on.
He blew his moustache, dropped his bat and ran away.
"We must take the championship this time!"
Isajiki Jun looked at the flying baseball with determination.
Just as the baseball was about to fall, an nimble red figure rose from the ground, stepped on the outfield wall, and caught the baseball.
His entire face was covered by the red hat on his head, and his face could not be seen at all.
Just by looking at his mouth, you can tell that he is definitely a handsome and stylish guy.
This is absolutely true.
"It's him again!"
Isajiki Jun stopped in dissatisfaction, slammed his hand on the floor, then walked back with a pout.
The player in left field slowly took off his hat, revealing his true face.
Deep eyes and cold temperament.
There is no need to ask, who else could it be but Zhou Hui?
Zhou Hui's landing caused the Chinese people present to raise their arms and cheer.
This time, they may really have a chance to win the classic.
This is an area they have never touched before.
Now, because of Zhou Hui, they are gradually getting closer to the honor before them.
After graduating from Qingdao High School, Zhou Hui directly chose to sign up for the Major League Baseball draft.
Eventually, he joined the Los Angeles Dodgers with the first pick.
After joining the Dodgers, he became more and more courageous and made it to the major leagues from the minor leagues in just half a year.
Now he has become the fourth batter of the Dodgers championship team.
The strength is indeed fierce.
More importantly, he led the Dodgers to win the final championship, and he was selected to the All-Star and All-NBA teams many times.
Now, if he can lead the Chinese team to win the classic championship, his career will surely be filled with a brilliant chapter.
“This time, I must win the championship.”
Zhou Hui clenched his fist.
The last time Zhou Hui lost was to the island team led by Sawamura, Yuki and other old teammates.
After defeating the Chinese team, the island team was not spared and lost to the American team.
But now, the US team was eliminated early, and the Chinese team and the island team are competing for the final.
In this competition, someone will make up for the regret of four years ago.
Both the Chinese team and the island team came with the desire to win the trophy.
"Bottom of the ninth inning, the Huaxia team is on offense, the second batter, the catcher, is Huang Biao."
After Huang Biao came on the field, the island team also replaced the pitcher.
They replaced the nearly 40-year-old Tanaka Masahiro with the younger Sawamura Eijun!
This person was also Zhou Hui’s teammate in high school!
Zhou Hui smiled, and it brought back some memories of his high school days.
Tanaka was old, so he couldn't stay on the field for too long. Moreover, Zhou Hui had just hit him with a double in the previous inning, helping the Huaxia team tie the score.
It is worth mentioning that with Tanaka being replaced, the players on the island country’s national team are all old acquaintances of Zhou Hui.
Pitcher Eijun Sawamura.
Catcher Kazuya Miyuki.
First baseman Tetsuya Yuuki.
Second baseman Ryosuke Kominato.
Third baseman Hong Leishi.
Shortstop Shirakawa Katsuyuki.
Left fielder Jun Isashiki.
Right fielder Kenjiro Hakushu.
Center fielder Kamiya.
It can be said that players from Qingdao High School occupy most of this lineup.
This is enough to show how strong Qingdao High School was back then.
In the lounge below, several former super pitchers such as Fōtani Akira, Narimiya Mei, and Hongo were also sitting there.
The island country's high school baseball is indeed worthy of its reputation.
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"Good ball! Batter out!"
"nice shot!"
"nice shot!"
"Good ball! Batter out!"
Currently, Sawamura plays for a baseball club in the island country of Tokyo.
He is the strongest pitcher on the team, and his goal is to make the major leagues in the next three years.
After the baptism of the major leagues, he has now become a perfect pitcher with a pitching speed of 150km+ and a colorful changeup.
It is a killer weapon in the professional arena.
It is worth mentioning that Hongo and Fōtani Akira have already entered the major league stage and are currently men with a pitching speed of 160km/h.
The island country suddenly produced two such monsters, and its baseball status gradually approached that of the United States.
"Fourth batter, left fielder, player Zhou Hui."
Looking at his former teammates, Zhou Hui didn't show any sign of letting them go.
This is very much to Sawamura's liking.
No matter what, giving it your all is the best.
"Sawamura, show us all the results you've achieved since entering the professional arena!"
Sawamura smiled slightly and raised his long thighs.
He holds a shield in his right hand and a Paladin's sword in his left.
"boom!"
The baseball at high speed penetrated Zhou Hui's chest, but Zhou Hui didn't give in at all and swung the wooden bat in his hand down.
This blow seemed to bring my thoughts back to the high school competition field!
But now, Zhou Hui is no longer such an omnipotent person.
"Qiang!"
The violent force swept through the entire baseball, and it effortlessly flew over the right field wall and landed in the glove of Fujiwara Takako, who is now his wife.
Looking at Takako Fujiwara's excited expression when she caught the baseball, it was just like the same as during the autumn competition.
At this moment, she even forgot that she was an islander!
Zhou Hui threw down the bat, without much excitement on his face, he just stretched out one finger to run the bases.
“This time, I’m the best player!”
Finish spreading flowers!
