Kouichi threw his pitch which was right on target, flying straight into Daichi's open glove.
"Nice pitch!" Daichi exclaimed, sending the ball back to him with a smile.
Kouichi was starting to gain back some of his confidence after giving up 3 hits. The next two balls were exactly where Daichi wanted them, bringing the count to 1-2.
He finally requested a two-seamer towards the outside which would break inward if thrown correctly. Kouichi nodded and sent the pitch right where he wanted.
DING
The batter made contact with the ball, sending it skidding along the ground to Kouichi.
"Home Home!" Daichi shouted.
Kouichi collected the ball easily and threw the ball to Daichi who caught it and stepped on home plate in one motion. Without stopping, he sent a rocket-like throw towards Kenta who was standing on 3rd base.
Kenta caught the ball and threw it directly to Hikaru who was waiting with his glove out at second base.
