Chương 477: CIF Semifinal: Anderson HS (3)

Bottom of the second. 

Kyle took the mound with confidence and a slight attitude. The first pitch was a fastball right down the middle for a called strike. The batter stepped back for a practice swing. As the cleanup, he was definitely a senior: tall, well-built, and almost looked like adult with a full beard. This was the first time I felt like we were playing against men and not boys. This would be the disadvantage in playing varsity as a freshman. 

'DING!'

Kyle's second pitch was returned with force and power. The cleanup hitter smashed the ball to left field. We could only watch as it soared over Garret and then the outfield fence. A homerun. A solo shot. 

Anderson High and their fans cheered for the batter as he jogged the bases with ease.
