Lin Guanglai's pitch was quick; almost as soon as the umpire announced the start of the game, he initiated his throwing motion. With a fierce swing of his arm, the white ball zipped out of his fingertips, aggressively heading towards Shohei Ohtani's high inside corner.
Even after playing an entire game as a batter, Lin Guanglai's stamina was still quite robust at this moment, which allowed him to consistently release fastballs exceeding 160 km/h even in the later stages of the game.
Especially now, as the closing pitcher, Lin Guanglai didn't need to worry about conserving energy like when he was a starter; with full power, every pitch he threw posed a significant threat to the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters' batters.
