Popup to Shortstop.

[YesNOnoNOYes]

aaaaaaah

just got home

 

[Lucumo]

aaaaaaah

just got home

Great timing.

/edit: I blame YesNOnoNOYes for Waseda Saga getting three outs in a row now and no more runs, despite 3rd and 2nd base being loaded.

 

[YesNOnoNOYes]

Great timing.

XD


aaaaaah

2-5

but couldnt convert more bases

 

[Monumma]

Bottom of the ninth inning.
Sakamoto singles.
Suzuki hits right back to the pitcher, double play.
K! Game over!

Nice game by Togou. HItless through 4, 11K. He was in trouble in the 7th and he came out of it. (140 pitches, for those keeping count)

 

[Lucumo]

That double play = dreams of comeback crushed.

 

[Beckx]

Sorry, I've been devoured by the Frozen Throne in Hearthstone all day and forgot to update with today's games.

But we are underway!

 

[Envelope]

wait it starts early today?

 

[SDBurton]

Just got home. Gonna workout real quick, hopefully I don't miss out on too much.

 

[Beckx]

Haitaa! Clutch two run HR

 

[Beckx]

That Hiroshima school can hit the shit out of the ball. Not sure about the pitching.

 

[SDBurton]

Just got back, how was this game overall? I still can't get over the one we watched yesterday with that incredible comeback. lol

 

[Beckx]

We may be in the middle of another one! Tying run at bat but two outs.

Man, they lost but at 10-3 I never expected them to come back.

Game was really good, things got out of hand in the 8th.

 

[SDBurton]

That was a hell of a rally attempt. You could feel the tension.

 

[Beckx]

Whoah, Shuugakukan v Yokohama is up next. This should be be good, pulling for Yokohama.

 

[Beckx]

Uh. Don't think Yokohama is going to have a chance unless they put their ace in.

 

[Lucumo]

4 runs so far is certainly no comfortable lead for Shugakukan.

Osaka Toin later today, too bad I will miss a bit of it.

/edit: As I said: 4-1 now, thanks to a nice 3rd-base steal followed by a sacrificial fly...and a double play...

 

[Beckx]

Feel like Yokohama has to make something here. They do get one and still threatening.

Going to miss Osaka Toin as well, bummer.

 

[Lucumo]

3-run HR, nice. 6-4 now.

 

[Lucumo]

Shugakukan 6-4 Yokohama

Nice end. What is annoying (and what they still haven't fixed), for some games the names of the teams are reversed for the stream.

 

[SDBurton]

Was that it for today or do we have one more game?

 

[Lucumo]

More games (it's been four games every day all week so far, except on Tuesday because of the opening ceremony).

Konan vs Chiben Wakayama
Osaka Toin vs Yonago Shoin

If the game now takes a while, I might not even miss the beginning of Osaka Toin.

 

[Lucumo]

Six runs by Konan in the 3rd inning...after two outs, no HR and a pitcher change in between.

 

[Monumma]

6 run inning by Kounan against cincinnati. 0-6.

edit: Chiben Wakayama answers back with 2, but it could have been more. a DP with bases loaded ends the inning.
edit: 2 Run homrerun by Hayashi. 4-6, 0 outs in the 5th.
edit: changing pitchers didnt help, Tomita homer himself, tie game!

 

[Varshes]

Tie game!

 

[Lucumo]

Another 2-run HR, 6-6 now.

Damn, now I hope the game ends before I have to be away for a bit (highly unlikely).

 

[SDBurton]

Another 2-run HR, 6-6 now.

Damn, now I hope the game ends before I have to be away for a bit.

Agreed, was about to turn in for the night but now I want to see this through.

 

[Lucumo]

Hahaha, that pitch.

 

[Monumma]

that's impressive.

 

[Lucumo]

That position switch, pitcher gone after 30 pitches. Now I really fear for Konan (who I kinda want to win).

/edit: 7-6 now, not surprising. The double play prevents further runs, for this inning at least.

 

[Monumma]

The ace is in but he loads the bases and a run gets home. 7-6 Chiben Wakayama.

 

[Lucumo]

Good job protecting that home base.

 

[YesNOnoNOYes]

8-6 aaah

edit: 9-6 9th inning....

edit edit: can't possibly scores 4 runs in the bottom of 9th inning, right???

edit edit edit: 2 outs .... aaaah

 

[YesNOnoNOYes]

aaaah over

9-6

still one game to come

 

[Monumma]

9-6 and game over. Chiben Wakayama advances.

next the spring champs close the day.

 

[Lucumo]

Missed the end as expected...but then again, the game also ended as expected after that pitcher switch.

 

[Lucumo]

Second guy from Osaka Toin already hit a HR. 0-1

 

[Monumma]

That's a way to start the game i guess... HR. Probably not the last this game.

 

[Lucumo]

And two hits result in another run, 0-2.

 

[Monumma]

Hi, I'm Tokuyama Soma, I am the ace for the spring champions and summer contender Osaka Toin. I can reach the low 90s on my fastball and have above average control.

Pls draft me.

 

[Lucumo]

Osaka Toin finally with more than just one run in one inning. 0-5 now

 

[Lucumo]

Lol, no f***ing way. That's one way to get a run, I guess. 1-6 now.

 

[YesNOnoNOYes]

massacre ; __ ;

 

[Lucumo]

massacre ; __ ;

Pff, they didn't even score 10 runs.
