Commotion

The news about seido's win shook the entire West Tokyo, it's potentially might spread towards the East Tokyo as well. Seido winning the game isn't an amazement but the pitcher's lineup itself that shock the people. They crush Maimon without Tanba, the former Ace and the mysterious first year ace Fujikawa. Not that they didn't hear any rumors but the credibility was in questions. So the crushing defeat of Maimon with only Kawakami and two tenth graders is a new record. Other than pitching, Seido's batting lineup also send crisis toward the other team. For now they know that their ace was the lead-off man(they completely oblivious about Mio's speed in running) and also play as left field. Kuramochi with his fast leg(known to the people) and Ryousuke the stupidly persistent batter was an amazing duo keystone. Captain and cleanup, Yuki. Jun with his big swing and Miyuki the unquestionable catcher with amazing batting. This lineup is among the best even in the national level. Considering their benched member also hold a terrifying ability, they need to watch out for seido.

''So seido really determined this year huh?''

''Mei-san you cannot look down on them to much''

A slightly darker skin tone guy warn Mei.

"We need to take note on their first year ace too''

A redhead guy spoke.

''Aha you mean little Mio? He's amazing isn't he?''

Carlos the slightly dark skin tone and Shirakawa the redhead look at each other. Mei never talk like this about other people so it's surprising he praise other. The Mei that they familiar was someone with a big ego, super stupidly stubborn but working harder than anyone.

''You know their number one?''

''Of course!''

''Then his pitch..''

''Not at all!''

Mei give a proud smile. This brat!

*sighs*
