Chapter 725 – Episode 712. We Need Impact! (2)

As he raises his bat and aims it at the electronic display, the opposing pitcher’s expression turns sour.

‘How is it? Are you angry? ‘Do you want to compete?’

Although first base is empty, the current score is 12:0. It wasn’t a situation where he would skip me, and it would be a great disgrace to skip him by walking to ruin the record of a player who was about to reach such a great record in the major leagues, so it was clear that he would choose to fight me head-on.

Even though the game was already decided, and a home run was hit on notice, it was passed off as a walk? If the pitcher did something like that, I would book a flight to Thailand for him. Well, before that, our pitcher who came on the mound in the bottom of the 9th inning would hit one of the Detroit guys.

‘It’s a fastball. ‘Body side.’

‘Okay.’

“Ball.”

And the first pitch was thrown. As if to prove that he was very angry, he threw a 150 fastball close to my body.

“Eek. “I have cycling ahead, so I’ll keep in shape.”

“Don’t worry because that won’t happen, right?”

… The catcher was saying this, but his voice was slightly trembling. This was because the catcher knew that if the ball hit the body, he would not be able to handle the public opinion of the fans.

‘In this case, is it better to exclude the body? Well, the pitcher can just stick it on his body.’

Still, it seemed unlikely that the catcher would use the body lead, so I decided to reduce the proportion of the body lead and waited for Mr. Rossby’s next instructions.

‘Slider. Outside.’

‘Okay.’

The next ball Mr. Rossby told me about was an outside slider. Since he was a pitcher he had never seen before in this inning, hitting a pitch he had never seen before was not a good choice for him to hit a home run. I decided to skip this ball and waited patiently for his ball.

“Strike!”

And the guy’s ball goes straight into the low zone on the outside.

‘Sweet, this much?’

The speed shown on the electronic display board was about 81 miles (130.3 km/h), making it a slider with strong vertical movement rather than lateral movement. Isn’t it a ball that you can’t hit because the velocity is slow?

It was natural. There was no reason to put a pitcher who threw a pitch I couldn’t hit on the mound in the top of the 9th inning when the lead was more than 10 points.

‘Okay, next time I come, I’ll blow it up.’

After entering the trajectory of his slider in my head, I wait for Mr. Rossby’s words.

‘Slider, outside.’

‘Oh? ‘Do you see my guts?’

And his choice was once again the outside slider. It seemed like the battery was targeting me because I didn’t budge the slider.

… Without knowing that it was a trap I had set.

‘Fuck. It’s obvious that I really haven’t done any analysis.’

If it had been Korea, they wouldn’t have made the mistake of throwing the same ball to me in the same zone twice in a row, but the guys in the major leagues didn’t know anything about me, whether it was because they were too proud or because they had poor analytical skills.

‘Then I will eat well.’

I put moderate pressure on my hands and waited for a few seconds for his slider. The guy raised his left leg high and stretched out while swinging his right arm.

The trajectory of the ball, which starts flying from the center, gradually heads outward and falls downward. The speed is felt to be around 120%… ! But the trajectory was too low.

‘Write…’

As the trajectory of about two more balls fell than before, I bent my right leg and scooped up his balls.

Damn!

Although the ball was pulled hard, it flew away with an ominous sound as if it had hit the tip of the bat.

‘Ah, I’m screwed.’

The batted ball flew high toward the left, and Hall, the runner on third base, prepared to retouch. Feeling disappointed, I continued to stand and look in the direction of the hit.

‘… Huh?’

However, there was no sign of the high hitting ball falling. Left fielder goes back, back, further back. And he stopped in his seat and looked at the batted ball.

-Wow!!!!

-Ji! Ji! Ji! Ji!

And my name rings throughout Comerica Park. The batted ball I flew narrowly missed the fence.

‘Fuck, this is it!!’

And the feast of dopamine that fills your blood vessels! It felt like my dick was erect for the first time in a long time. Feeling that pleasure, I aimed the bat at the opposing pitcher and bounced it once.

“… I know it feels good, but does it stop there? It wasn’t even a bat flip, but the ceremony was a bit…”

“Fuck you.”

The pleasure of walking to first base after swearing at the catcher who suddenly jumps out and tries to make you feel better… !

“Ji! Aren’t you crazy?! “Hit for the cycle in just 6 games since debut!”

“The 55 Million Dollar Man!”

“Jijus!”

When I returned to the dugout, my teammates were so excited that they were hitting our helmets and backs, but it didn’t hurt that much, perhaps because of the dopamine released. After enjoying the beatings from my colleagues, while I was having a drink,

“Ahh!”

A loud sound was heard from the ground. I glanced at the field and saw Judge rubbing his butt at the plate.

“Aaron! Are you okay?!”

“Is that a bean ball?”

“I guess Ji’s ceremony…”

‘Anyway, the guys in the major league are also small. Just because you hit the bike once is an empty ball.’

He was waiting with the intention of getting revenge right away if Judge ran to the mound, but he signaled that Judge was okay with the dugout.

‘Kabi.’

I wanted to make my major league’s first bench-clearing debut in commemoration of the first cycling hit in the major leagues, but the inning ended without incident after Judge got to first base,

“Ji. “I’m planning to use Thomas as a substitute in the bottom of the 9th inning, is that okay?”

“Yes. I don’t care.”

That was the end of the game in which he achieved his first cycling hit in his major league debut.

After that, Camacho, who came on the mound in the bottom of the 9th inning, got two outs and hit a 90 mph fastball into the opponent’s buttocks, but unfortunately, the bench clearing did not happen this time, and we were able to end our trip to Detroit with 3 consecutive wins.〈 Br〉

“Ah, Grace has been working here for three years.”

It was easier than I thought to strike up a conversation with the lovely flight attendant, Grace. Grace came up to me to ask if I needed anything, and since she was on a plane right after the game and the players were busy sleeping or resting, she had some time left.

And there was no way I could miss that opportunity, and before we knew it, we were talking about personal matters.

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Then which airline were you originally on?”

“Oh, I was originally at AA Airlines, but I came in after an interview.”

“But why did you come here?”

“Actually, I was also a fan of the Yankees. “I’m from New York.”

He laughed as if he was embarrassed to tell her this. By the way, I’m a fan. Then you must have seen our game… I felt like I could attack them right away.

“I see. But a younger sister I know wants to become a flight attendant. Can I hear more about it? Tomorrow is my rest day anyway, so I think I’ll have some time.”

Grace looks slightly surprised by what I said. She had straight blonde hair and brown eyes, which are hard to find even in the United States. She had a slightly sharp look overall, but when I saw her eyes widen in surprise at what I said, I thought she was cute.

A fan of the Yankees since childhood, she refuses a one-night stand with the hero who made a cycling hit in today’s game?

That was impossible.

“… “Good.”

‘Also… !’

And permission came from her mouth. Since he was 27 years old, it was clear that he fully understood what I was talking about.

‘You don’t really believe I’m curious about that, do you?’

“Then I’ll unpack and send you a DM right away.”

“… “I’ll be waiting.”

Fortunately, based on her reaction, it seemed like she understood what I was saying. As expected, making an impact by making a cycling hit today seemed to have had an effect.

‘Sseu-eup, if I do this, I can pick and eat it today, right? After all, you have to play baseball well.’
