Kapitel 445: Ken on the Mound (1)

"So you've finally decided to bring him out." Mark Williams muttered after seeing Ken ascend the mound.

As a Grandfather, he was thrilled to see his Grandson on the mound. Yet as the U18 US coach, he felt a little trepidation.

His eyes narrowed onto Coach Takashi, the World Renowned National Team coach for many years. He had a feeling that the guy had been saving Ken for this very moment, wanting to stifle their batting line up.

While placing Ken who was still a freshman as a closer, he was able to attune and prepare him for the big stage. This gave him valuable experience, pitching against the best batters in the world.

Though it might have been frustrating for Ken, this truly was the best path for his future development.

As his thoughts moved to this, he couldn't help but turn his attention to Ryan who was calmly sitting on the bench. Unfortunately for Ryan, the spotlight had been on him since a young age.
