Absolute on the Mound

5.

“Yes, thank you. Thank you."

Finally, I stopped Lee Jin-yong's time coming out of Director Jeong's office.

Literally.

As if the world had stopped, Lee Jin-yong stood firm at the door.

Yeah? Yeah.

Kim Jinho waved his translucent hand in front of Lee Jin-yong's eyes.

Hey, wake up.

Even with Kim Jin-ho's repeated gestures, the focus on Lee Jin-yong's eyes did not return properly.

At that moment, Kim Jinho turned his head and cried out in panic.

Aren't they the most famous daisies of all time? The ones you said you liked last time!

Lee Jin-yong was surprised at the mention of the most popular girl idol group in Korea and Lee Jin-yong's favorite idol group.

“Daisy? Really? Where is it? ”

Damn, this thing reacts like a ghost again.

“Yes?”

You sound like Daisy. Why would they come to Independence Hall? Anyway, one of these things is more like a ghost than a ghost. Enlighten me.

Then, Lee Jin-yong, who realized that Kim Jin-ho cheated her, covered her face with my hands.

“Ah.”

But there was nothing to be angry about.

Is that why you're awake?

“Honestly, I think he's still a little out. ”

I knew that Kim Jinho literally did it not to mock Jin Yong, but to sober him up.

“Phew.”

Lee Jin-yong woke up to a certain degree thanks to the help of Kim Jin-ho asked Kim Jin-ho.

“Are you sure you want to put me in the race against Incheon Sharks? ”

Uh, you're the one.

Director Jung Beom-seok, who suddenly called Lee Jin-yong, immediately informed him without interruption.

Compete in the upcoming matches against the Second Army team of Incheon Sharks.

It was informed as I said earlier.

Notification, not a request or offer.

Even if he hates Lee Jin-yong, if he is a cat star player, he needs to fit into the mount on that day.

Of course, Lee Jin-yong never hated it.

“Does this make sense? ”

What do you mean?

“No, I haven't been on this team in less than a month, right? What do you mean, I'm elected? Against the Incheon Sharks II team. ”

So you don't like it?

“No way. ”

Rather, Lee Jin-yong liked this fact. There's never been a better chance of coming to him now.

“But it's so sudden, isn't it? ”

But it was too sudden.

In fact, these opportunities were not easy to come by.

As Jin Yong said, it was only a month before he joined Goat Stars through a triangulation.

In the meantime, Lee Jin-yong has been selected to compete against the Blue Dragons and has become a loser in the next match against the Seoul Angels II.

That's all I can do.

At least it was a chance to give enough to a new pitcher at Cat Stars.

But you're going to play against Incheon Sharks?

The value of the Independent Society's interaction with Incheon Sharks cannot be stated.

This is the second time after Seoul Angels.

It wasn't his turn yet.

It's not that sudden.

However, Kim Jinho thought differently.

All of a sudden, three hours ago, after you finished your five-inning flawless pitch with the double-A team, you were talking to your mom, and you were eating your mom? Yes, I'm eating well, so don't worry. I'm going to give you a little encouragement, and I'm going to call you out of breath, and I'm going to tell you that tomorrow morning you're being told to fly to the Yankee Stadium.

What happened to Lee Jin-yong was not something to discuss abruptly.

Most of all, the only thing left to be fascinated by in this situation is to lose the chance.

Furthermore, that was not the point.

The director informed you to come out as a candidate, and now all you have to do is run as a candidate and turn all of the other team's batsmen into assholes in order to win the team.

We should not be satisfied just by taking this opportunity.

Make this opportunity more than an opportunity and achieve greater value through him.

“Yes.”

Then, Lee Jin-yong woke up.

Kim Jin-ho smiled at Lee Jin-yong's appearance.

Well, congratulations.

Lee Jin-yong nodded at the congratulations mixed with Kim Jin-ho's loving smile.

The last time I saw you on the Internet, did you say you walk the flower path in this situation?

“Ah.”

In the sincere compliment, Lee Jin-yong sighed, and the moment he sighed, Kim Jin-ho glared at Lee Jin-yong with a great pitcher of Major League he wanted to meet.

Kim Jin-ho said to Lee Jin-yong.

Yes, Jin Yong. Let's just walk the flower path from now on. Flame Path!

“Yes?”

Good day's end! Start the hard work!

“The beginning of hardship, what does that mean? ”

Kim Jin-ho said in Lee Jin-yong's report.

Activate your status window first.

In saying that, Lee Jin-yong activated his Stats window.

[Lee Jin-yong]

Max HP: 74

Maximum Binding: 125

Holds: Fossil Fastball (B), Chain Up (B), Slider (F), Curve (F)

Owned Skill: Daily (E), Daily (F), Rising Fastball (F)

[Due to the Daily Effect, you have been promoted to rank B with Foam Fastball Metallic.]

Are you confident you can use this ability to get ahead and win against the pro 2nd fighters?

Lee Jin-yong said, looking at Kim Jin-ho.

“It won't be easy, but if Kim Jin-ho helps, · · · · · ·. ”

No, it's not.

“Yes?”

I'm not gonna help you. I'm not coaching you on the day of the election.

“What the hell. ”

At that moment, Lee Jin-yong's face was stiff.

“You're not really upset, are you? ”

Do I look like a zombie to you?

Lee Jin-yong nodded like Pablo's dog who heard the bell on Kim Jin-ho's side.

Kim Jin-ho frowned and said.

It's not that I'm upset.

“And?”

Just to show you the difference between the first pitcher and the first pitcher.

The word firmly established Lee Jin-yong's face.

Kim Jin-ho smiled in front of Lee Jin-yong.

Oh, and frankly, I'd like to see you fuck yourself. Hahaha! Looks like God finally answered my prayers. I can finally see you crying from the mount!

6.

Incheon Sharks.

Until 2012, after winning the 2007 Korean Series, those who were on the stage for six consecutive years received the modifier "Dynasty only a few teams can hear on the Korean pro baseball stage."

However, Incheon Sharks' performance was not good after that.

From the 2013 season to the 2016 season, he did not set foot on the stage in the Korean series, and his anger at the Incheon Sharks Club was deeper that he felt a sense of regret about it.

“Everyone, wake up! ”

Of course, for the Incheon Sharks Group II team, the Independent Guild could not tolerate the defeat of the Goyang Starz, not even the battle of Park Bing.

“Beat it! Especially Park Jun-hyung! ”

Baekdae-dong Scout, he announced today that he was going to fight the Second Sons of Incheon Sharks against the Cat Stars.

It was literally a one-way order, a notice, and a sudden notice.

But there was no one who resisted.

The power of scouts in the world of Korean pro baseball was very strong.

High school athletes, college parents, high school, college baseball supervisors, and coaches who want to become professionals right away are not club scouts, they are club scouts.

Scouts' assessments will change Draft's nomination ranking and will determine whether or not it is nominated.

Because of this, I came to the world about the time I forgot about the mischief knights caused by the vandalism that led to the powerful power of the Scouts.

The same was true of the Baekdae-dong scouts.

“But if you can't catch it, get ready for a professional ticket! ”

One of the realities of the Sharks Club, not just a scout, he makes a fuss without caring about the eyes of anyone around him.

Even the Cat Stars players on the other side have their ears pierced.

“What's wrong with him? He's going to eat us. ”

“What's wrong with us being scouts? Unless we're lucky they didn't pull it out. ”

As a Goyang Star athlete, I have no choice but to speak English.

In that situation, Lee Jin-yong, who was ahead of the selection board today, looked at the atmosphere of Incheon Sharks' bench.

And the last thing he said.

“It's not a good vibe. ”

Kim Jinho replied.

Of course, the scouts are bringing Kusari to the Independent League! I can't give you the same advice I promised. Of course. I almost gave you a clue. We have to be careful.

Lee Jin-yong sighed for a long time in Kim Jin-ho's appearance.

In Lee Jin-yong's head, I remembered the conversation I had with Kim Jin-ho before the match with Sharks today.

Kim Jin-ho said to Lee Jin-yong, who was preparing for the match with the Sharks II, that the election was confirmed.

I'll do everything I can until you're on the mountain. But once you're on the mountain, I'm never going to help you. You'll never help me when you're crying on the floor.

I'll do my best to help you before the game, but after it starts, go play it yourself.

Lee Jin-yong asked why, and Kim Jin-ho answered.

Mound is always lonely and lonely. Experience that loneliness and loneliness. With nothing to lose, either. It's better than feeling lonely and lonely for the first time on a mountaintop.

If you're going to get beaten by a falcon, you better get beaten first.

And a pair of cuffs.

That was Kim Jinho's answer.

Above all, if you've prepared all the answers, given a special lecture, and you can't pull the game out by yourself, then you should just fold the baseball. You don't expect me to do everything from the start to the fever, do you? And I'm just a counselor. I'm a great person, but I'm not perfect. In order for you to survive as a true professional, you need to be able to catch what I did wrong, not follow me. Now, of course, at this level, it doesn't sound like much. Yeah, I'd crawl up there and dance in front of you every time I climb up the mountain.

In Kim Jin-ho's words, Lee Jin-yong did not see any dissatisfaction or complaint.

It was worth it.

Lee Jin-yong had no intention of becoming Kim Jin-ho's avatar.

And you want to see it, don't you? What do you do for yourself? Don't you want to give it a try?

Above all, I wanted to check on Lee Jin-yong, as Kim Jin-ho said.

‘Today I get on the test stand. ’

Do you really think you can survive on stage at this moment in time, or do you want to survive?

‘I try to see if I really deserve to dream again. ’

At that moment, I began to see the eyes of Jin Dragon.

Game on.

“Yes.”

Incheon Sharks, numbers on their heads.

7.

“Unlike the last Angels, today's been a long day. ”

The exchange between Incheon Sharks II and Cat Starz.

At 2 p.m. in Sharks Park, the 2nd Field of Incheon Sharks, located in the Incheon Reinforced Force, there was no shortage.

Naturally compared to the last Goat Stars match in Seoul Angels.

“Well, of course you do. Who would have expected such a defeat? ”

It wasn't weird.

The Goat Stars that defeated Seoul Angels was the Goblin that defeated the real Star Supper, but now the Goat Stars that defeated the Incheon Sharks II army were a miserable defeat against the Seoul Angels.

“And this time, everyone will go to the trials. ”

Furthermore, Korean pro baseball has now begun a demonstration.

Although it's a regular game in front of the season, it makes sense for baseball fans to prioritize demonstrations between the Independence League and the Second Army over exchanges.

“What's wrong with you? ”

“They're doing a tour of the orphanage. From what I hear, he's been holding the backboard since May 1st. ”

“I'll be back this season, after all. ”

“If you return after June, you will be separated by a year, whether you qualify for post or FA status. Honestly, the goal was to join forces with Jaguars II as soon as I got the job ready to announce the resurrection against the Cat Stars. ”

“Ahn Chan-Seop is going to fight the Cat Stars. Thinking about his fucking personality... ”

For this reason, most of the people who visited the stadium were only those who knew each other's faces.

“Hey! Side Scouts! ”

It was natural for Kang Chi-woo, a scout from the Seoul Devils who won the Korean series last year, to recognize and approach the Jamsil Stadium in such a vacant and intimate place as Seoul Angels.

“You must be busy. What brings you to Enhancement? ”

“What's going on with you? ”

Moreover, the scouts of one of the Korean pro baseball rivals, a late-breaking rival, could not have been good.

“We're here to see if there's anything good. Are you here to see First Class? ”

“I don't know.”

“Let's not hide it. Are you after Park Joon? ”

Instead of being deformed by what Kang Chiu Scout said, he took off his glasses and began to wipe them with a microfiber cloth.

Kang Chiu Scout continued to talk to himself with a real smile in front of him.

“Word on the street is that a centipede scout went to see him himself and offered to recruit him, but he was rejected by a dagger. ”

“That's why he was such a dick before the game started. ”

“You know his personality, right? I'm not picking players, I'm choosing them. I bet you bet your players' eyes are pretty good though · · · · · · · From what I hear, they offered to increase your roster to group 1 after September in guaranteed seating before group 2. ”

Kang Chiu Scout, who was spitting, looked at the ground.

“Park Joon-hyung who refused the offer is great, too. He's never been named by Draft. The team that wants to take him will have some problems. ”

“The Devils will be comfortable. They're full of first-class resources. ”

“Have you ever seen a scout in the world with so many players in mind? ”

Instead of answering, he put on his wiped glasses again.

Then the game started.

The conversation between the two paused, and the conversation that started was about the time Park Jun Hyung, the third batsman, stood up after the first batsman and the second batsman in the Goyang Stars.

“I like the feeling, too. He's a coveted player, and frankly, if he had a FA like that, he would have paid about two billion in total. How is Aura different from the other players? ”

At the end of Kang Chiu Scout's words, Park Jun-hyung swung ferociously against the pitcher's pitcher.

Baaak!

And then, with the sound of brainstorms, the ball flew to a far, far place in a flash.

“· · · · · · · · · · Wow! ”

Kang Chiu Scout admires you, then finishes the sentence.

“The Devil will catch him somehow. So don't let it go to waste. ”

The notice opened his mouth with a deformed scout.

“Whatever. I'm not here to see Park Joon anyway. ”

He tapped the shoulder of the variant with a fierce smile.

“Yeah, that's good thinking. If Park Joon-Hyung wasn't an idiot, he wouldn't have refused last year's winning team's proposal. ”

And the strongest thing that happens on the spot.

However, the deformation did not occur in place.

Because what he said was true.

‘Park Jun-hyung is like one of our Angels as long as the Operations Team Leader is on the move. ’

I didn't come here to see Park Joon.

‘Problem is · · · · · · · · · · ·. ’

All he wanted to see was the pitcher.

Today, a pitcher rises as the first pitcher of the Cat Stars.

‘Jin Yong Lee.’

The other reason why I wanted to see binary dragons was because the variant dragged the car to enhancement.

‘I'll make sure I know with my own eyes whether you're lucky or talented. ’

So, the one-on-zero situation started with Jung Hyung's solo.

On the mount came a binary dragon.
