Capítulo 464: I'll make you my Rival (2)

His eyes were locked onto Ken the entire time as he waited for the pitch.

'Fastball, changeup, I'll hit whatever you throw at me…' Sam thought, gripping his bat tightly.

WHOOOOOOSH

DING

The very first pitch was a fastball on the outside which was promptly sent into the foul zone by Sam's mighty swing. The pressure from the bat surging through the air was enough to make Daichi nervous.

"Foul."

Like all good batters, Sam was starting to pick up Ken's pitches by the 3rd at-bat. Alongside Leo, the big guy was one of the most dangerous batters on the US team.

Daichi called for the next ball above the strike zone, hoping to bait out a swing. As long as they get another strike, the slider should put the big guy away for good.

Ken nodded before entering his wind up and whipping the ball out of his fingertips. From the batters perspective, it almost seemed as if the ball was rising as it neared the strike zone.

WHOOOOOOSH

DONG!
