Later that day, Ken and Daichi met up with Tom House at the Ligers facility while Rohan chose to spend his off day elsewhere.
As they walked into the facility, they saw Tom at one of the nets waiting for them.
"Daichi, are you hear to catch for us?" Tom asked, pleasantly surprised.
"Ken says he's made a breakthrough, I'm here to test it out."
"Breakthrough?" Tom raised an eyebrow and looked at Ken curiously.
Ken smiled, "Just wait and see." He said, being mysterious.
"Alright, go get warmed up, I'll see what you've got." Tom answered eventually. He was being paid either way, so he didn't care too much.
Daichi got his equipment on and stood behind the plate, holding his glove up. The two threw back and forth until Ken raised a hand, indicating his arm was warm enough.
"I'm gonna go through my breaking balls. Call for any of them, wherever you want." Ken said, rolling his shoulder.
Daichi squatted down and called for a curveball first.
