After the fielding practice, Shun, Sora, Jiro, and Daigo headed to the bullpen. Since they only had one catcher, Sora went to pitch first while Shun and Jiro warmed up their shoulders.
Shun watched Sora's practice closely. The young pitcher had progressed significantly this year. In addition to improving his pitch control, he added more speed to his fastball, making his curveball even more effective. Moreover, the boy had added another pitch to his arsenal, thanks to the old man's instructions.
[He has improved a lot. As long as he continues his training, he will get even better.] – The old man's voice echoed in Shun's head.
"Hm" - Shun agreed silently. He couldn't deny the help the old man provided over the past months. Although his attitude hadn't changed, he not only helped Shun improve in the Training Center but also provided instructions for Shun's teammates to get better.
