Bab 707: Payback (1)

"Ken!"

Ken was in the middle of heading towards the outfield like he had done the last few innings, when he heard his name. He turned, only to see the coach beckoning for him to come back.

For a brief moment, he thought he was being taken out of the game. However, his intuition perked up in the next moment.

'Is it my turn to pitch?'

If he had a tail, it would be wagging at a million miles per hour. Thankfully, for his dignity, this was not the case.

"Are you ready to step onto the mound?" Coach Brown asked, his expression unreadable. There was still a little tension remaining from their altercation at the beginning of the game, but the topic made it easier to ignore.

"Yes sir!"

Coach Brown nodded, "Show us what you can do." He said simply.
