Chapter 89 – Episode 88. National Team VS Australia (3)

“Cheolyeong-ah, are you okay?”

“Ugh, the verdict? Is it three leaves?”

“Okay. It ran well. Rather, the ankle. Under…. Hendricks will be leaving soon, so why did you push yourself?”

“No way. I did the right thing Ugh.”

“Can you run?”

“I don’t think it’s that severe….”

The trainer rushed in and checked Park Chul-young’s condition. And as it was an important situation, manager Lee Geum-hyeon also approached first base to see Cheol-young’s condition.

“Are you okay?”

“Um…. It’s not a serious injury, though.”

Coach Lee Geum-hyeon looked at Park Chul-young at the trainer’s question.

“Cheolyoung, what are you going to do?”

If you continue to play today, it may interfere with tomorrow’s game. Actually, the Australian national team where Hendricks went down was not that scary.

‘If I want to show my best in tomorrow’s match against Japan, it would be right to change it here.’

“Personally, I recommend focusing on tomorrow’s game.”

“… Ugh, I see.”

At the director’s words, Park Chul-young could only nod his head. Because Park Cheol-young knew the importance of tomorrow’s match.

“Then, shall I prepare for the welcome?”

Kim Hwan-young…. Obviously a good player In 2021 and 2022, he won the Golden Glove as a shortstop for two consecutive years, and his defense was good enough to play second base, shortstop, and third base. However, it was a little disappointing that his feet were slow. Although he was stealing double digits every year, his failure rate was high.

‘I want to pick the first point…. If it’s grace, I can make a ball in play, so if I send a runner to second base, I might score.’

It was a second run, but as Choi Joong-hun also went down the next inning, it was a moment when the first point was essential.

‘Should I play Yang Ji-hyeok?’

Yang Ji-hyeok is a player who achieved 40 stolen bases for five consecutive years with his unique outfield defense and quick feet. He was a player who could raise a question mark if asked about his value as a hitter, but as far as his defense and running ability, he was the top player in Korea and no one objected to his promotion to the national team.

However, Lee Geum-hyun soon gave up on that idea.

‘No, Yang Ji-hyeok must be put in a situation where he can score unconditionally in a more close match than now. It’s too early now. Then….’

… A player who can steal. Ji Maeng-ho remains.

“Let’s replace it with Ji Maeng-ho?”

“Yes? Ji Maeng-ho now?”

“Ji-hyeok should be used in better circumstances, and Hwan-hwan is slow.”

“… All right.”

“Five! It’s fierce it’s finally out After pretending to be proud, he is a candidate after all?”

Seeing the fierce tiger on TV, Hyuna smiled. When he was selected for the national team, he pretended to be proud, and he complained that he only heated the bench, but he liked the fact that he was playing in the game.

“Choi Hyun-ah, what are you doing? Is the youngest supposed to watch TV like that?”

‘Fuck, old schoolboy.’

“Sorry. But it’s a national team match.”

“It’s not volleyball, I’m watching a baseball game. Do you even have a boyfriend?”

“I’m not your boyfriend…. No.”

“Hmm, the reaction looks suspicious, right?”

“It’s because you say something so out of the blue.”

“Anyway, the club has gotten better lately. When the youngest is taking a break, I also watch TV.”

“… Sorry.”

Hyuna couldn’t help but bow her head and apologize for her senior’s words. The team that Hyuna entered was Seoul-based AT Life Insurance, the most disciplined club in the women’s volleyball world. And that kind of discipline was merciless to Hyuna, who was also selected for the national team.

‘First year. I can’t even play volleyball like a dog….’

“Then why are you standing up and watching?”

“… Yes?”

“Why are you standing up and watching baseball? Sit comfortably and watch TV anyway.”

“That…. I ate and also did some exercise.”

“Ew, do you really have to show off like that? If you are going to watch TV, do you just watch TV? If you were going to exercise, did you exercise?”

“… Sorry.”

“What are you doing? Sit down.”

“…….”

“Sit down, sit down and watch TV.”

“… Yes.”

Hyuna was forced to walk in front of the TV and sit down at her senior’s insistence.

“Ehh.”

“…… ?”

“Ah, because I sat down while exercising….”

In fact, it was because of some toy that got into her sensitive part, but the senior couldn’t know. At the urging of Maengho, she is working hard to develop it, but she is still too much Hyuna to sit down.

‘When is this bitch going?’

The senior, not knowing what Hyuna was thinking, sat down next to her and started watching her TV.

“Hey, but I don’t know baseball very well, so can I go back and forth like that?”

It was hard to focus on the TV because of the strange pleasure she felt from her buttocks, but Hyuna answered the senior’s words while maintaining her composure. If you don’t answer here, it’s a set.

“That…. It’s called stealing, but it’s an advantage to go one more base and score.”

[Ah, Ji Maeng-ho. Are you still harassing Hendricks right now? Hendricks is not concentrating on the batter.]

[Does Ji Maeng-ho really have a strong heart? How can a player who has not even made his professional debut hold such a long lead?]

“Oh, Ji Maeng-ho? You look good. Do you have a girlfriend But it’s too hard. I thought there were just home runs and strikeouts.”

‘What are you going to do if you become handsome? Does Maeng Tiger meet a bitch like you?’

“Baseball is a bit difficult.”

“Oh, but you seem to know pretty well, don’t you?”

“Ah, I’m from Hanche High School. So I know the rules.”

“Then why is your voice so low? Don’t be nervous Does your sister eat it?”

“That’s not it….”

“So, are we going to see each other until training? You will also explain.”

‘First year. Let’s hit it fast.’

In fact, the reason Hyuna turned on the TV was simple. Since she hadn’t seen him since the vacation, she wanted to feel it without anyone knowing when she saw Maeng-ho’s face for the first time in a long time. However, it was difficult for her to focus on baseball when her senior was by her side.

Rather, I am more excited about the fact that I am putting toys there even though my senior is next to me.

[Now the ball count is three balls. Ji Maeng-ho is doing a good job as a runner. The pitcher and catcher exchange signs and pitch the fourth!]

[Uh, uh! Ji Maeng-ho ran! At second base! At second base!]

“What? What?”

“I stole the clothes!”

Hyuna’s voice rose as the senior made a fuss and hit him on the arm, but the senior didn’t notice at all. A magical power that makes the people of a country concentrate even on a sport they don’t even know much about. Because that was the magic of the national team game.

Hyuna’s senior fell in love with baseball in a short time without even knowing the rules.

[Three leaves. Three leaves! Ji Maeng-ho made a decisive steal. Now the situation is 2 out 2 base. Now the runner is in scoring position. A single hit can score 1 point!]

[Five! I could tell from Ji Maeng-ho’s movements, but his feet are quite fast for his large body.]

[He is a rookie player, so there is not much information about him, but he can be seen as a tool guy who combines power and focus.]

“Five! Do we have an advantage? He has a handsome face, but his feet are fast.”

“Yeah…. You can see that. Now, for every hit, you get one run. .”

Hyuna’s tone continued to stretch at the pleasure felt in the secret place, but the senior was making a fuss about him without knowing it.

“Wow, give me one point. 1 point! Hey! It’s a national team game, aren’t you cheering?”

“Green onion… , Go for it!”

[Now the count is three balls one strike! Batter’s count.]

[I hope Lee Eun-chong will do one.]

‘Oops, I should do one…. I hope Maeng Tiger scores….’

Tension transmitted through the TV. Hyuna also began to focus on the game, putting the pleasure behind her nervousness.

“Ugh, why are you taking so much time?”

“Above, a dangerous situation…. It is because it is.”

“Okay?”

Just in the middle of talking like that! The voices of the broadcasters grew louder with the sound.

[Hey! Eunchong Lee! Pulled batted ball! To the right!]

[Ah. I need to get off, I have to get off… !]

[Falled! A hit that landed in front of the right fielder! The runner returns to third base and goes home! Home!]

“What happened?”

Hyuna couldn’t hear the senior’s voice. Hyuna’s eyes and ears were only fixed on the TV.

“Ji Maeng-ho! Run!”

I was just cheering for Maengho.

*

“Run!”

The third base coach’s hand signal is seen and a shout is heard.

‘Gong, where?’

‘The right fielder threw.’

Fuck, can I go? Isn’t this a bunch?

However, the die has already been cast to hesitate while thinking about it. I ran home, kicking off the ground vigorously.

– Sliding to the right!

The next hitter, Choi Joo-tae, sees an urgent hand signal. It is now 5 meters to the home!

‘Late! Right in front of the catcher!’

Is it just before catching? Fain! The sound of the right fielder’s throw entering the glove is heard. Damn, did you catch it?

‘Just fuck me!’

‘Fuck, I don’t know!’

Watching the catcher turn behind me, I put a lot of effort into my last step and flew home.

Thud!

A blue sky is seen with a strong shock.

‘Sick man! This is a dome stadium!’

Isn’t that blue sky? It’s dizzy. Fuck. What happened? The cheers of the crowd, which could not be heard while running, penetrate the eardrums.

“Shut up! Fuck! My head is ringing!”

I screamed, but I didn’t know that the shout would diminish.

“Who are you swearing at?”

“Eww…. Choi Joo-tae?”

“Bitch, attach the senior. Are you okay?”

“It’s a little dizzy, but it’s okay.”

Bumped with her shoulder, so the head was fine. It was just that my vision suddenly reversed and I was dizzy.

“So, what are the results?”

“Do you speak short?”

While saying that, Choi Joo-tae pointed at the electronic signboard with his chin. The signboard had the number ‘1’ engraved at the end of the 5th inning.

“Safe. It’s the first step, but don’t you have a ceremony? You like that.”

At Choi Joo-tae’s words, I grinned and stretched out my fist while lying down.

Wow!

And the cheers of the crowd that followed! Fuck! Do not play baseball with this taste!

*

[Maengho Ji’s tremendous sliding! The result is safe! Three leaves! Ji Maeng-ho showed great sliding!]

[Ah! This could have been a dangerous situation! The right fielder’s throw came straight home, so the catcher had no choice but to cover the home plate. In that situation, Ji Maeng-ho was already sliding! The runner and the catcher collided! The catcher flew and the ball fell off the mitt! It is the perfect three leaves!]

[Korea’s leading first step! 1:0! At the end of the 5th inning, it is Korea that gets the first run against Hendricks, the best closer in the major leagues!]

“Fierce Hoya!”

Seeing the fallen fierce tiger after colliding with the catcher, Hyuna stood up without realizing it and called out the fierce tiger’s name.

“What? What happened? Did your score go up? Are you hurt?”

‘I don’t know either! You bitch!’

Swearing almost came out of my mouth. Hyuna, who endured the swearing with superhuman determination, ignored the senior’s words and focused on the TV broadcast. Hyeon-a’s brain was already dominated by worries about the fierce tiger rather than the pleasure rising from under him.

[Ah, Ji Maeng-ho, there shouldn’t be any injuries. Australian catcher Edwards is down. Even with the protector on, the impact is great. Neither player should have been hurt….]

Caster’s relay comment full of worries. The camera takes turns taking pictures of the two fallen players.

‘Maengho, aren’t you hurt?’

Did Hyuna’s heart reach her? The camera takes a fierce tiger. Maengho’s grinning face is captured on camera. And the image of him raising his clenched fist was broadcast nationwide on camera.

“Kyaaaaagh! What is he What are you laughing at? Is the dog good looking? Wow, he plays like a man too…. Wow….”

Hyuna’s senior, who was watching her from the side, exclaimed in exclamation.

“Thank god. I’m sorry!”

And Hyuna, who realized that the fierce tiger was okay, sat down. And feel the sexual pleasure! The fact that the fierce tiger was safe and the intense pleasure rising from the bottom slowly made Hyuna’s body wet.

And the sight of a fierce tiger smiling wonderfully after scoring a goal in an important game accelerated the rate of getting wet.

‘Bad baby. When you come back, don’t leave me alone. Really.’

“Hey, why are you so worried? Do you know him?”

[Fortunately, the! Ji Maeng-ho! I scored 1 point with my quick feet and tough play!]

[Kyaa! This player, actually, is the player I was keeping an eye on? He is the player who dominated high school baseball last year. He is the player who made two championships for Korea Physical Education High School. Actually, I didn’t expect that he would do well on the professional stage, especially on the international stage, but he’s really, really proud. Ji Maeng-ho!]

“Ah, is he also from Hanche High School?”

“… Yes.”

“Then give me your number. He’s handsome and just my style.”

“That’s a bit…. You should ask his opinion.”

“Oh, the world has gotten a lot better. My junior is also answering me.”

‘A year that is not even a few years apart… !’

Hyuna was worried and had no choice but to hand over Maengho’s number. But she wasn’t too worried. Her senior’s face is a face that cannot be called pretty even with empty words. It was obvious that she would block it right away due to her fierce personality.

[Player Ji Maeng-ho. Fortunately, the. Ah…. In the end, Edwards is being carried away…. Too bad. I hope it’s not a big injury. The Australian national team will change pitchers with Edwards. After all, there is a pitch limit, so it can’t be helped, right? Hendricks’ face is full of regret.]

[Korea’s attack begins now! In fact, it is safe to say that there is no special player in Australia except for Hendricks! And the next hitter is Choi Joo-tae, who is active for the Angels! I’m not Choi Joo-tae, who won’t burn even after seeing the youngest’s fighting spirit!]

“Oh, Choi Joo-tae! I know him! Are you in the major leagues?”

“Yes. Will you?”

And….

Ta-yeah!

Choi Joo-tae attacked the changed pitcher’s first pitch and made a batted ball that went over the fence of the Taoist Dome.

[Choi Joo Tae Ae Ae!!!!! Two Run! The score difference is widened by three points!]

[Also! It’s safe to say that Ji Maeng-ho’s fighting spirit is now connected with this score difference! Joo Tae Choi! Also great! I immediately catch the will of my junior with a home run!]

And the subsequent attack by South Korea. The bottom of the 5th inning in Korea ended only with 7 runs.

“Wow, baseball is fun too. The score is also blown. Shall we go to training now?”

“… Yes. But, I…. I’ll drop by the locker room for a moment.”

“Yes? Okay? Don’t be late because training is coming soon. … What is he in such a hurry for, but he goes so fast?”

The senior just looks at Hyuna as she moves to the locker room with her face reddened. He didn’t notice that the seat Hyuna was sitting on became damp.
