章節 702: 1st Inning (2)

From the point where they thought Blake was going to get hit, to the dropped catch, the batter and two runners had stalled.

"HOME!"

Amongst all of the chaos, Ayden decided to sprint towards home plate, his small and lithe figure gaining some serious speed.

The freshman on 1st base wasn't slow to react, sending the ball back to Steve at home plate. It was a good throw, allowing him to step into the path of the runner, essentially blocking his route to the base.

Steve lowered his posture, clasping his glove close to his body. With his physique, he had some confidence that the smaller Ayden wouldn't be able to run through him.

As he got closer, Steve tensed his body and braced for the hit. However, it didn't come.

Ayden darted to his left prompting Steve to move forward in an attempt to tag him. But in the next moment, Steve's eyes widened in shock. He saw the small body of Ayden suddenly leave his vision, juking him completely.
