"That shameless bastard! Does he have no honor?" Makoto shouted, clutching his beer precariously in his hand.
"What honor? Intentionally walking is a legitimate strategy, we do it all the time against Hiroki." Riku added, flashing Hiroki a crooked grin.
Hiroki ignored the guy, his eyes locked onto the big screen. He let out a sigh, shaking his head thoroughly. "Unless they get some runners on base before Daichi and Ken are up, they'll keep getting walked every time." He stated.
"Are they really going to keep doing that? Even if they get ahead eventually?" Shiro asked, a hint of frustration in his tone.
Hiroki shrugged, "Why wouldn't they? They're essentially reducing the risk of losing by purposefully not facing Detroit's decent batters."
Shiro sighed, "I played with Ken for 2 years, and watched him for years after that. I never saw him intentionally walk anyone."
