Alone (2)

Ken sat up, his attention focused on the game. It was the bottom of the 3rd and Miami was down by 2 runs already with the bases loaded and a single out. The pitcher was someone that he didn't recognize and he looked to be sweating up a storm.

"They're in a pinch…" Ken mumbled. He would certainly not like to be on the mound in this situation.

"It looks like Miami are making a pitching substitution to get them out of this hole. Yep, it's Ryan Smith, the undrafted sophomore coming in for Julio Rodriguez." The commentator announced.

Ken's ears perked up at the commentators words and sure enough, Ryan appeared on the screen, heading towards the mound. His sandy blond hair was barely visible beneath the blue cap.

"Ryan has been even better in his second season in the big leagues, but he has got a lot of work to do this inning. He looks focused, let's hope that he can stem the bleeding for Miami."
