บท 425: The Long walk back (1)

"101mph huh?" Ken muttered, feeling impressed.

While he enjoyed matching up with Ryan, he wouldn't shortchange him when it came to giving his respect. For a 17 year old to pitch at 100mph, it was immensely impressive.

The only reason he could pitch like that was due to the system. So for someone to reach this point at his age through hard work and talent alone, they deserved respect.

'I wonder what grade his pitching is?' He thought for a moment.

He'd been holding off on analyzing Ryan, mainly because of pride. Ken felt that it was borderline cheating to do such a thing, so he refrained.

At least for this game.

Knowing his potential, Ken would be silly not to use Identify and bring him into his Image Training. He had done the same thing to Yatsuo, the 3rd year Osaka Toin pitcher, yet he hadn't had the chance to make use of it.
