"Clang!" The bat swung, and the baseball was propelled back in the direction it came from by a massive force, piercing through Waseda Jitsugyo's first base defense, only to be caught by Yagaki Kentaro in the right field.
Seeing the baseball thrown to second base, Sho Hango gave up on the idea of advancing further and stood on the first base bag, waving and smiling at his teammates on the opposite side.
Sho Hango was very happy: what made him happy was not only hitting a base hit himself but also the fact that their Nihon University had completely seen through Lin Guanglai's pitching strategy—a pitcher who loses the mystery of pitch selection will inevitably be conquered by batters, no matter how strong.
