[It's half being full of himself. Maybe two-thirds being full of himself. But some of it's also simply this: despite himself, he's in a good mood now because he's out on the diamond, and he doesn't mind the thought of treating someone to lunch after and hanging out. He figures his odds are around 50/50, anyway. Ten pitches in a row without even a foul would be outstanding, though not unheard of for him, and the guy had said he wasn't that great at batting. It could go either way. He's in such a good mood that he genuinely doesn't care, and the grin he offers Kuramochi in answer isn't entirely a smug smirk.
