[If Kuramochi ever had any doubts about this guy, it's gone by the time the second pitch is thrown. He steps in to swing at the pitch, but is a tad too slow and misses by a hair. Damn...!]

Shit, you got some arm there! The hell's your top speed anyways?

[It's reminding him of Furuya's pitches... Although he rarely got to face against the monster pitcher's speed from the batter box. Maybe Furuya would've been fired up if he were to see this guy's pitching...

Not to mention the control from the first pitch. It's like Nori and Furuya thrown together into one pitcher... An ideal Ace Pitcher, really.]

Dude, if my teammates were here, they'd be fired up to take you on...!

[Not to mention himself, but he has more fun out while on defense, or when he's trying to steal bases.

He wonders if he can even touch the pitch.]
