When the baseball flew out of the field for the third time in this game, apart from hearing commentator Sakaguchi Yuji's shouts through the television live broadcast, the viewers could also feel the roaring waves at Koshien stadium.

"Towards central field!!! The outfielders from Teikyo have given up—they aren't chasing the ball anymore—the baseball has flown out again!!!"

"Home run!!! Tournament's 5th!!!"

"Three home runs in a single game—third in history; three consecutive home runs—first in tournament history!!!"

"Waseda Real 6:3 Teikyo—the score gap is back to 3 points again!"

"Miraculous Koshien, miraculous summer—today, we are all witnesses to history!"

In a wave of cheers and applause, Lin Guanglai slowly circled the bases once more, and upon returning to the player zone, high-fived, embraced, and celebrated with his teammates—he's done this routine three times in this match already.

Even as the performance at this at-bat ended, the spectators in the stands were still far from calm; they needed time to digest the surprise this game had brought them. As the crowd murmured and exchanged comments, one could hear their praises for Lin Guanglai's performance:

"Oh my God—I've watched Koshien for at least thirty or forty years, I've seen players like Kiyohara Kazuhiko and Fujii Jin play live, but a three-homer streak is truly unprecedented!"

"It's just too strong, feels like professional level, right? Isn't it against the rules for such a player to play at Koshien?"

"Haha, with such a performance, those professional teams must be going crazy, right? I wonder, if Lin Guanglai announces to go to college next year, would those professional teams lose their minds..."

Though Koshien was always a stage for heroes born, witnessing countless great performances from future star players over the years, Lin Guanglai's show in this game still sent Koshien into a frenzy.

For most people on-site, it was their first time seeing such a scene on a high school stage, and the incredulous feeling made them mechanically clap to express the tumultuous emotions in their hearts.

Also in shock were the players from Teikyo Junior & Senior High School: the faces of those on the bench beside the third base line fell in disarray.

Even though Lin Guanglai hit this home run, due to no one on bases, the score was merely pulled back to a 3-point gap—still considered "slight" in a baseball game.

Compared to the score difference, the greater significance of this home run lay in its irreversible impact on Teikyo players' mentality:

One must know, Teikyo fought hard for their 3 points, managed to snatch each one from Lin Guanglai—whereas for Waseda Jitsugyo? They just need to get more runners on bases and wait for Lin Guanglai to send the ball out!

Moreover, every time Teikyo tried to narrow the score gap, he would immediately respond with a home run—like being divinely assisted, making Teikyo players naturally question themselves:

Is such a powerful opponent really someone we can defeat? Does a deity even favor him from behind?

Affected by this mentality, Teikyo Junior & Senior High School's defense slipped, giving away another point in the second half of the fifth inning, changing the score to 7:3.

In the top half of the sixth inning, lower order came to strike for Teikyo again, but the momentum failed to carry through, with three consecutive outs concluding this half of the inning abruptly.

Maeda Sanosuke's face looked increasingly grim—if previously, the 3-point gap was within control, now, with only three and a half innings left, margin widened, and his own lineup showing severe faults; without backup firepower from the lower lineup, a 4-point or larger difference was unbearable for Teikyo.

The situation deteriorated: Ishikura Masaya initially caught Waseda Real batters off guard, but as they got familiar with his pitches, the disparity in strength further burdened Teikyo's defense.

In the second half of the sixth inning, marked by Sato Ken from the ninth position hitting a single, Waseda Real's batters sacrificed two outs, sending two runners to the second and third base scoring area, handing the chance to expand the score to that person—

"Lin Guanglai! Lin Guanglai again! Merely half an inning later, he's up for the fourth time in the match—previously in three at-bats, he scored all home runs, totaling 6 RBIs, undoubtedly the biggest contributor to Waseda Real's current score."

"After tying the single-game home run record, Lin Guanglai faces a new history-making opportunity: scoring another home run this at-bat would crown him the top of the Summer League's single-game home run leaderboard;"

"Meanwhile, the 9 RBIs would allow him to surpass Suda Tsutomu in 1988 and Tongxiang Jiazhi in 2008, securing the top spot solo in single-game RBIs!"

While the commentator brewed emotions, preparing for possibly a historic moment, Ishikura Masaya on the pitch mound suddenly moved.

Being a very old-school Showa-era coach, Maeda Sanosuke did not choose to have his players intentionally avoid—direct confrontation between pitcher and batter is the true romance of baseball.

The baseball, like a white lightning, surged towards home plate at such speed that even the audience closest couldn't discern the pitch.

But in Lin Guanglai's eyes, the entire revolving baseball was clearly visible.

Lift foot, draw bat, twist, swing at full speed!!!

"The first pitch swings!!! How's this ball!!!" Faced with the sudden situation, Sakaguchi Yuji could only pull his throat, describing what he saw.

In the center of the broadcast frame, the black-gold lacquered surface of the bat in Lin Guanglai's hand reflected a touch of sunlight, then, driven by all his muscles, it ripped through the air, firmly and accurately striking the incoming white ball.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh——!!!"

"Right field!!! Right field!!! Teikyo outfielders are chasing!! Teikyo outfielders are chasing!!"

"It's too late! It's too late! It's too late! The baseball is flying out again!!!"

Above Koshien, in a blink, the baseball traversed the entire field, then with an elegant trajectory, "plopped" into the stands, disappearing from sight.

"9 RBIs!!! Four consecutive at-bats with home runs!!!"

"He did it!!! He did it again!!!"

"The summer of the 93rd session, a new legend is born!!!"
