A week later, the Toledo Mud Hens were crowned as national champions of the Triple-A league. After defeating the Durham Bulls in two straight games, they faced the winners of the Pacific league and easily overcame them.
With the emergence of Daichi, Ken and Jeremy, their performances had catapulted the Mud Hens to the top and into the spotlight.
Many of the Detroit Liger fans online were campaigning for their call-up to the team. Of course Ken did not think that it would happen, at least not yet. It had only been 3 months since he'd been drafted.
At the very best, he would probably get called up to the majors in the middle of the following season, provided he could keep up his performance.
So with the end of the season, the off-season now began.
Ken didn't really have any plans. He could stay in New York, but he was worried about distracting Ai from her final exams at college. She was set to graduate in January which was only a couple of months away, he could wait until then.
