DOOOOONG
Shock and pain crossed the Australian players faces as they tracked the ball through the air.
"LEFT!" Jeb yelled out, but the player was already running towards the back wall.
But it was all for naught.
The ball rocketed into the stands, leaving no room for doubt in anyone's mind. It was a single home run, once again.
Ken jogged around the bases, hearing the cheer of the crowd and the Japanese dugout. With his home run, the score was now 5-0 in their favor with Australia yet to get an out against them.
This was the start of what would be a statement to the remaining teams in the World Cup.
Japan were here to win it all.
In the locker room after the game, Ken let out a big stretch, sitting upon the comfy couch provided. He looked relaxed and carefree, not something one would expect after just participating in a baseball match.
"Well that was over fast." Aki stated, digging in his nose.
