Chapitre 420: Too Fast (2)

The umpire's eyes widened a little in confusion, but he quickly dismissed his concerns. As long as they weren't purposefully aiming for the batter, he didn't care.

Satoshi however, felt really odd. It wasn't that he couldn't throw such a pitch, just that it seemed wasteful. However, he eventually nodded and got into position to throw.

He performed his wind up and threw exactly to where Daichi was asking. Yet what happened next caused him to almost yelp in shock.

WHOOOOOOSH

DING!

The big guy had swung for the hills, looking as if he wanted to chop a tree down with murderous intent. Just the sound of the bat swinging through the air was loud enough for him to hear it on the mound.

The ball was thrust high into the air above the umpires head. As a seasoned umpire, he quickly moved out of the way, making sure not to impede the catcher from having a chance at getting to the ball.
