Even when Lin Guanglai stepped out of the player area to prepare for batting, he could hear some jeers mixed in with the deafening cheers of the home fans.

"But now, with two outs and bases loaded—facing Lin Guanglai, who hit a home run off his pitch last season, how should Mason Jie choose?"
"Fastball! Inside corner!! Mason Jie chooses a head-on duel with Lin Guanglai; what does he say about this pitch?!"
"Lin Guanglai initiates the swing! Hits it!! This ball is flying high and fast!!"
