Bab 59: Shoto VS Hokuto (5)

Almost at the same moment Shun touched his hand to the base, he felt the third baseman's glove tag his back. He looked at the umpire with a confident smile.

"Out!" - The umpire announced after a few moments.

"Huh?" - Shun looked at the umpire, astonished, not for a second thinking he could be thrown out while stealing a base.

"What?" - All the Shoto players were speechless. This was the first time Shun had ever been caught stealing a base.
