Wake up Call (1)

"Batting second for the Bobcats, Brian Sweeney."

As the announcer called up Brian to the batters box, Ken spoke to Ayden who was on his way back to the dugout. "That was a nasty slider, haven't seen one that breaks that hard before."

"Yeah, I thought I was going to hit it but I swung too late." Ayden admitted, letting out a small sigh. "That guy is still the same as ever. Sometimes it feels like he knows what I'm thinking."

Ken pat him on the shoulder, "Just keep trying to get on base. Every pitcher throws a bad ball every now and then." He consoled.

"Even you?" He asked with a grin.

DING

Just before Ken was about to reply, the sound of the ball being struck entered his ears. The two snapped their heads to the field, only to see Brian running towards first base with speed.

Ken couldn't see the ball at first, but he saw the right outfielder bend down to scoop up the ball before throwing back to the infield.

"Nice Brian!"
