Chapter Index

    There are ten pitchers selected for the All-Star Game. And a regular inning in baseball is 9 innings. Considering the possibility of overtime, the number of innings assigned to each pitcher was 1 inning. The manager of the All-Star game might be criticized by the fans if he had a pitcher throw more, so unless something special happens, almost all pitchers throw like that.

    That meant that the pitcher I would face this at-bat was the fourth pitcher on the dream team. The Dream Team pitchers who have been on the mound so far are UG Overlords’ ace pitcher Kim Seong-gyeol, Hyunseong Madcats’ Ace pitcher Choi Jung-hoon, and UG Overlords’ first foreign starter Austin Webb.

    ‘Almost all of the starters who are pitching well in the league are gone now.’

    There are two remaining starting pitchers on the Dream Team. They were Kim Hyun-sik of Hancheol and Park Jeong-seop of JT.

    ‘If it’s Kim Hyun-sik and Park Jeong-seop, it won’t matter who comes up, right? Because I’ve dealt with both of them many times. Then I guess I’ll have to hit a long ball in this inning.’

    Excluding those two starting pitchers, the remaining pitchers are Hyunseong, UG’s sure-to-win team, and Hancheol’s closer, Jeong Tae-hwan. I felt more comfortable with Park Jeong-seop and Kim Hyun-sik, whom I had dealt with many times, than with them.

    ‘If possible, I wish left-handed pitcher Kim Hyun-sik would come up.’

    However, the Nanum team’s batting lineup in the bottom of the 4th inning was me, Choi Jin-cheol, and Woo Gwan-hyung. Since there are two right-handed batters and one left-handed batter, it seemed like right-handed pitcher Park Jeong-seop would have a higher chance of coming up than left-handed pitcher Kim Hyun-sik. And my expectations were right on target.

    Of course, that didn’t change anything. JT’s ace, Park Jeong-seop, was also quite compatible with me.

    “Park Jeong-seop! Go for it!”

    When the cheering stopped for a moment, a woman’s voice caught my ear. Judging by the loud noise, it seemed like he was probably Park Jeong-seop’s personal fan. The voice was loud enough to make you feel that the fan was passionately cheering for Park Jeong-seop.

    ‘But what should I do? ‘Sorry about that fan, but I’m going to hit a home run.’

    When I was practicing live pitching during my time with the national team, if I had to choose one pitcher who was the easiest to hit, I could pick Park Jeong-seop without even thinking. Park Jeong-seop’s pitching form and my batting form were so compatible that I could pick him. You get help from Rossby there?

    ‘thank you for this food.’

    I immediately raised the bat and pointed at the left fence. When I pointed the bat at the left wall, the fans started cheering loudly as if they were waiting for my anticipated home run.

    -Ji Maeng-ho! Ji Maengho! Ji Maengho! Ji Maengho!

    -Ji Maeng-ho~! Ji Maengho~! Ooooh! Thunders Ji Maeng-ho! Fly it to the sky!

    And then everyone in the audience starts singing along to my cheering song. Since the All-Star Game is a festival, I felt that both the Dream Team fans and the Nanum Team fans were singing my cheering song with one voice.

    “Ha, this bastard starts again.”

    Lee Yong-gi speaks as if he is sick of it.

    “It’s a festival. “Hehe.”

    I smiled and answered Lee Yong-gi’s words.

    “But you know I’ll be embarrassed if I don’t hit a home run this time, right? “Can you hit it?”

    “Hey, I hit a home run earlier. why? “Are you scared?”

    “After making a fuss. done.”

    “Please be honest this time. honest.”

    “okay? “This time it’s a fastball.”

    ‘Is it a real fastball?’

    ‘Yes, it’s a fastball. ‘Low on the body.’

    Why is this guy being honest? ah! Is it easy to get to the All-Star Game now? Well, I’m thankful.

    ‘I’ll eat well this time too!’

    And Park Jeong-seop’s ball was thrown.

    Ta – evil!

    ‘Did I get it right?’

    When I lifted Park Jeong-seop’s ball, I could feel the taste of my hand. And just like that touch, the batted ball flew high and far. And that too far away.

    “Uh, huh?”

    You can’t even see the ball this far? no way… ?

    -Wow!!!

    -Ji Maeng-ho! Ji Maengho! Ji Maengho!

    The batted ball ended up flying to a place I couldn’t check. No, to a place where not only I but anyone else in the stadium can check.

    “downpour!!!”

    An exclamation of exclamation came out of my mouth without me realizing it as I threw the bat with great flair. Over-the-counter home run! I’ve hit a lot of Paulos, but I think this was the first time I’ve hit a ball out of the stadium like this in the professional world.

    “Fuck, this is it!”

    “Hey, when I tell you, it blows me out of the stadium. Hey, ask the club to trade Hancheol.”

    Lee Yong-gi took off his catcher’s mask and stood up, speaking as if he was in despair. Lee Yong-gi’s words to come to Hancheol felt sincere.

    “Hey, AT is better, so what are you going to do with Hancheol?”

    Even if I said I would go, they wouldn’t let me go, but I was sincere when I said I was happy at AT. I liked the seniors who didn’t say much, the coach who believed in me, and AT fans who supported me passionately. In addition, AT was even better because Hancheol did not have a team owner like Soyoung.

    ‘Ah, aren’t you the team owner yet? Well, it’s not much different from the club owner.’

    Still, I felt slightly good when Lee Yong-gi said something that seemed like he truly acknowledged me. Although he is a catcher on a rival team, Lee Yong-ki is the best catcher in Korea.

    “Then I’m leaving.”

    “Go quickly.”

    And it was better than anything else to bring out the catcher’s dejected expression.

    -Ji Maeng-ho! Ji Maengho! Ji Maengho!

    “Meng Hao! stylish!”

    I bowed my head to the fans who were shouting for me from the first base side,

    -Ji Maeng-ho! Ji Maengho! Ji Maengho!

    “Brother Meng Hao! “Please look here!”

    After bowing to the fans cheering for me at third base, I stepped on home base. You can only feel this situation in the All-Star Game when both sides of the audience are cheering for you. A special experience that can only be felt once a year. Although it wasn’t as intense as a real game, the All-Star Game had its own flavor.

    “Hey, Ji Maeng-ho, you totally caught me today?”

    “Hey, when was it not a day?”

    “This kid is playing the home run derby by himself.”

    “This is basic.”

    “Wow, that’s unlucky.”

    After receiving the warm congratulations from my seniors with a smile, Wonho came up to me.

    “Congratulations, Meng Hao. “If we win like this, MVP is a given.”

    “Hehe, concentrate until the end. “If the situation is reversed, I will kill you.”

    “Hey, now we’re up by 3 points, but are we going to get overtaken?”

    Is it because he plays for Silla? In the AT, a 3-point deficit is reversed like a meal. Perhaps because he was from a strong team, he seemed to have a different mindset.

    ‘You lucky bastard.’

    “Why are you looking at me like that?”

    “You look like a volcano, you should have gone through some trouble.”

    “Hey, there are Hwasan seniors in the dugout, I’ll listen.”

    After hearing Wonho’s words, I looked around the dugout and, fortunately, there were no Hwasan seniors around.

    ‘Well, since I had a fight with the volcano, I guess he didn’t necessarily come next to me.’

    “Hey, more than that… .”

    While I was thinking that, Wonho lowered his voice and asked me a question with a serious face.

    “huh?”

    “Are you really dating Yoon Se-hee?”

    “What bullshit?”

    “You had a scandal back then.”

    “iced coffee… . that?”

    “Are you really dating?”

    “Dating. Damn, where did this weird reporter get screwed? “I’m the only one with a trash personality.”

    “You were originally trash.”

    “Oops! Seed.”

    “I’m just kidding. “Tell me the story.”

    “Nothing much.”

    It was true that there was nothing special. Because it was just sex. I kept getting calls asking to see him, but the idiot started a dating rumor and I was holding back, so I only saw him once after that day.

    ‘The last time I saw you, the sight of you drooling and urinating was a sight to behold.’

    When I thought about that time, I felt like my dick was going to stand up, but it didn’t take long for my dick to cool down because of the serious appearance of Wonho opening his mouth with a happy expression on his face.

    “… yes? “Well, you’re dating Hyuna.”

    For some reason, I wondered why he asked in such a serious voice. Yes, but since you’re asking this, I won’t be able to go to the club with Wonho from now on. Too bad. I was good at seducing women because I had good physique. We matched well when it came to seducing women.

    “I told Hyuna well too. “You’re not that type of person.”

    “huh?”

    Wonho’s words were a little funny, but it seemed like this guy was also worried about the relationship between Hyuna and me. So, that day, I went there without even hearing that we were dating, but I guess he messaged Hyuna.

    ‘But, Wonho, you bastard. It’s Bodhisattva. If someone had taken the girl I liked, he would have picked every girl in that bastard’s family.’

    When I think about it, even in high school, the baseball team treated me well, even though I was an outcast. For someone with a silver spoon, he was a man with a very good personality.

    ‘When I think about it, I kind of hated Wonho back then… When I think about it now, why did I do that?’

    At the time, I was jealous and hated Wonho because of my inferiority complex, but now that I think about it, I felt like I was really young back then. I hated this guy because of such a trivial sense of inferiority.

    “Thank you, kid.”

    From the time I got injured until I met Rossby, I must have been depressed and not having much fun, but I was still a little grateful to Wonho, who took care of me as a friend.

    “huh? I really appreciate it. “You said thank you.”

    “just. bastard.”

    “You foolish bastard.”

    Tsk. I will find you a woman who is truly worthy of your brother. Of course, you won’t be able to find a pretty girl like Hyuna anywhere.

    ‘But do you know a true woman?’

    ‘If I can’t get it, then she must be a true woman. ‘It’s not easy to reject me, is it?’

    ‘ha ha ha. I thought I was being bullied, but it turns out my brain works well in places like this.’

    ‘I told you I’m not stupid. Hehe.’

    I felt like I had to work harder at picking on women from now on. To introduce Wonho to a true woman.

    ‘Well, if you keep picking, you’ll find one true woman.’

    It was inevitable if it didn’t come out.

    “Then, the star that shined the brightest today. Let’s meet Ji Maeng-ho. hello! Ji Maeng-ho! “Congratulations on being the MVP of the All-Star Game.”

    “thank you.”

    “In today’s All-Star Game, I went 4-for-4, with two home runs and six RBIs. “How are you so good at it?”

    “stop.”

    “… yes?”

    “Please stop asking questions like that.”

    “What is that… .”

    “You’re a professional, right? It’s natural to do well. From now on, when I can’t do something, please ask me why I couldn’t do it. ha ha ha.”

    “… wow! “You have great confidence.”

    -Ji Maeng-ho Has anyone seen this crazy bitch’s interview after the All-Star Game?

    Hahaha, my confidence was ruined. I never imagined that such a question would be asked until the All-Star Game. I am a bastard. I am a bastard.

    -Honestly, am I the only one who missed the Maeng Ho-shin interview?

    If a bastard with no knowledge had done that, I would have cursed, but since Meng Ho-sin did that, I was so screwed haha.

    -Ji Maeng-ho… I’m jealous… I’m even more jealous after watching the All-Star Game. I wish our team had players with that much confidence and skill. I want to stop seeing things collapse without Jinhong Lee.

    ㄴAh, Jang Woo-joo is also a good player. I saw today that he threw 163 degrees.

    To be honest, Jang Woo-joo is a good player, but I feel a little anxious when I see him hit a home run sometimes.

    ㄴㄴStill, critics say it’s in the top 5.

    -The spirit of today’s KBA All-Star Game MVP.

    ㄴStop it hahahahaha

    ㄴㄴJi Maeng-ho… only ‘him’…

    Wow, who is this guy?

    ㄴㄴThis year’s rookie Ji Maeng-ho. He is a strong candidate for season MVP.

    Are you a rookie? ㄹㅇ That’s so fucked up.

    ㄴAT uniform. Are you doing well these days?

    ㄴㄴㅇㅇ This guy carried hard and is now in 4th place.

    you?? I see this guy here often. Is he famous?

    ㄴㄴI debuted this year, but baseball fans all know that, right?

    Fuck you, you idiots are excited about something only you know.

    Why live when you don’t even know Ji Maeng-ho? I feel sorry for your life without knowing Meng Tiger.

    ㄴㄴㅋㅋ Leja bugs are immediately making personal attacks, right?

    no?? I said this because it was really sad haha. If you don’t know the fierce warrior god, why play sports? Fierce Tiger = Sports. It’s a formula, so memorize it.

    Wow, but there is a player in Korea who gives an interview like this. ㄹㅇ It’s boring.

    If you look at this bastard’s interview, there are a lot of things that are even more frustrating haha. Take a look at Godmu Wiki.

    ㄴㄴIt’s a bit boringㄷㄷ But I’m a rookie and the documentation is really long haha.

    No, that’s what it means to be a superstar.

    -I’ve been thinking about Meng Ho all day these days (っꈍΘꈍς)(∧ꈍ~ꈍ∧) I want to see Meng Ho… The All-Star Game was also really cool.

    ㄴMaengho❤❤❤❤❤

    Me too haha

    ㄴMaengho ㄱㅇㅇ ✧(๑ •᷅ – •᷄๑)

    ㄴㄱㄴㄲ When does the second half of the season start?

    ㄴIt was cool to interview Ulmaengho…^ᶘ= و ˃̵ᗝ˂̵=ᶅ^ و

    Hmm… there are a lot of stories going around, but I have nothing to say.

    What is it….???

    Yes, there is. Something like that haha

    -Ha, fuck it, I can’t watch Meng Ho-shin’s interview anymore.

    Why?

    Because there’s never a day when I can’t be a fierce warrior.

    ㄴㄴㅇㅅㅁㅅ

    ㄴㄴㅇㅅㅁㅅ

    ㄴㄴIsn’t it okay to just not ask how you did it well?

    Suit the mood, bitch.
