Then two things happened that Ryo Yamada couldn't believe.The first thing is that the Xiantai Kings' fourth bat was struck out in two or three strikes, leaving three bases left in the bottom half of the eighth inning.The second is that Kiriko Yamada said to him before entering the waiting room: "Husband, you stay here and watch the game." Ryo Yamada panicked when he heard this, and didn't understand why his wife didn't let him follow in, but frightened by his wife's serious tone, he had no choice but to follow suit. The midwife couldn't laugh or cry, with an expression of "what the hell are you doing here".

After his wife and midwife left, Ryo Yamada watched TV alone.In the first half of the ninth inning, the Dongqing Giants attacked wave after wave, and the Xiantai Kings were like boxers who had fallen to the ground and fainted but were treated as sandbags by the enemy, and kept greeting them with their fists.The hitters of the Dongqing Giants took turns, and the hits and bases continued to repeat themselves, seemingly endlessly. What's more, the camera actually took a close-up shot of head coach Nagumo sitting in the rest area of ​​the Sendai Kings, as if he wanted the audience to see clearly the wimpy appearance of the weak.I saw head coach Nanyun pouted slightly, looking like a child trying not to cry.

Fortunately, the ball did not hit the head coach Nanyun, but let him Startled, the whole person rolled to the ground, hitting his head hard against the edge of the bench.Head coach Nagumo stood up with a weak and shy smile, his appearance was unbearable. Ryo Yamada's breathing became more and more disordered, and suddenly felt his cheeks were wet, and then he realized that he was shedding tears.He stared at the TV screen, his heart was beating faster and faster, and he was full of thoughts: "Will my child have to be born on such a day and such a night?" Yamada Liang couldn't tell whether he was anxious or fearful. , but he was faintly aware that an irreparable tragedy was about to take place.

Perhaps it was because the first part went too fast. At the end of the first half of the nine innings, the rebroadcast slots hadn't been filled yet, and the score had already been pulled to 15-1. When the eighth bat of the Sendai Kings stood on the strike zone and lifted his bat weakly, the broadcast ended abruptly.It was clearly the last match of head coach Nanyun, but he couldn't feel the TV station's respect for him at all, and the broadcast was interrupted like this.
