Ken's eyes followed Coach Hanada who had stomped his way over to Akira and the other first squad members who just so happened to distance themselves from him.
If he remembered correctly, Akira was a tyrant while he was the Ace pitcher. He took his status and lauded it over anyone who was not in the first squad, making them clean up after him or just outright bully them.
Of course this changed once Ken took over his position. All of the status he had turned to naught, and he was forced to work hard in order to stay in the team, with the hopes of one day retrieving the position.
He wasn't entirely sure who became the Ace after he injured his shoulder, not like that mattered at this point.
Ken shook his head, now was not the time to think about the past. He beckoned to Shiro who was being nosy and trying to listen in to the grilling of the unruly senpai.
"Shiro, let's continue."
"Ah y-yes." He stammered, turning his attention back.
Shiro is up to bat against the haughty Ace. We'll be meeting the other members of the first squad in the coming chapters. Ken's return to the mound is also coming up, I'm getting excited!
