*Alex's PoV*
Everyone was practice. Yuki, Haruichi, and Jun were batting. Furuya and I were pitching. Miyuki and Chris were catching. Eijun was pitching into the net. Chris was catching to me and Miyuki was catching for Furuya.
"Ne, Chris-Senpai, which pick do I need to work on the most? Or, and, what form?" I asked
"I would think you want to control your speed. You have a very powerful throw so, at certain times, you must learn how to pitch slower. Like a change up." Chris replied
"Soka, Can I try?" I ask. He nodded and got into position. "Alright, here I go."
I wined up my pitch and throw it and boy did it look slow. "Chris-Senpai! That felt weird! How can people pitch like that!" I complain. "Alex, you are so childish yet you manage to surprise me with how you pitch." Chris said.
I nod and look over to Furuya and he keeps pitching for speed. Then Miyuki does his speech on how to relax and I cringe when I hear Eijun shouting. Then I watch as Furuya throws his next ball and he's relaxed!
"Good job, Furuya. Until Tanba is in perfect condition, Alex, you, and Kawakami will be busy. You guys want to avoid needlessly getting tired." Chris said and I nodded.

"Alex, let mw see your test scores." Yuki said. Right now, I'm in my third-year classes and we got our test back! I was so happy when I got it.

I had my papers to Yuki and tell him he could give them back later that night.
