Bab 174: Urgent Mission (2)

Carlos saw Ken getting up from the bench out of the corner of his eye and smiled widely.

"It's about time you joined us! Hahaha."

Ken didn't respond, still awaiting the confirmation from the coach. He wasn't like Carlos who selfishly put his own desires above his coach and his team.

Even Coach Goto seemed a little embarrassed from the affair. Since they needed Carlos's talent, he had pandered to the kids demands more often than not.

Whenever he didn't want to play a game, the coach would relent. But that was where it usually stopped, he'd never seen the kid act in such a way before. It was as if he was obsessed with Ken for some reason or another.

Obsessed enough to forcefully foul every ball from the current pitcher in order to draw Ken off the bench.
