    Day Before the Game
[00:02] Ot
    Furuya's playing left field in the next game?
[00:05] Ka
    Yes.
[00:06] Ot
    Then who's starting?
[00:09] Sa
    Excuse me.
[00:12] Sa
    You called for the crippled Sawamura?
[00:14] Sa
    Wh-What can I help you with today?
[00:17] Sa
    If it's about sleeping through
    nearly the entire class today,
[00:21] Sa
    then I'm deeply repentant.
[00:24] Mi
    You did?
[00:25] Sa
    Wait! It's not about that?!
[00:28] Ot
    C-Coach Kataoka!
[00:30] Ot
    You don't mean to say...
SIGN    Did You Just Pitch...
SIGN    October 9
SIGN    Seido vs Nanamori Academy
[02:20] NC
    The monster's playing left field?
[02:23] NM
    They probably want to try things out
    before they face Inashiro.
SIGN    Nanamori Academy
    Head Coach
    Tatsuomi Hara
[02:28] NC
    I see.
[02:29] NC
    So they're looking down at us.
[02:33] NM
    Why do you look so happy?
[02:35] NC
    Bring it on!
SIGN    Seido Nanamori
[02:42] C1
    I'm worried about today's starting pitcher.
[02:54] Ka
    Here's today's starting lineup.
[02:56] Ka
    Batting first and shortstop, Kuramochi.
[02:59] Ku
    Yes, sir!
[03:00] Ka
    Second and right fielder, Shirasu.
[03:02] Sh
    Yes, sir!
[03:03] Ka
    Third and second baseman, Kominato.
[03:06] Ha
    Yes, sir.
[03:10] Ha
    I'm in the three-hole?
[03:15] Ma
    It's the result of how you've been playing,
[03:17] Ma
    so be sure to swing confidently!
[03:19] Ma
    If you get too tense,
    you won't be able to swing properly.
[03:24] Ha
    I'm getting mixed vibes from you.
[03:27] Ma
    What are you talking about?
[03:28] Ka
    Fourth and catcher, Miyuki.
[03:30] Mi
    Yes, sir!
[03:31] Ka
    Fifth and first baseman, Maezono.
[03:35] Ma
    Yes, sir.
[03:37] Ma
    Fifth?
[03:38] Ma
    I've moved down.
[03:39] Ka
    Sixth and left fielder, Furuya.
[03:45] Fu
    Yes, sir.
[03:46] Ka
    Seventh and center fielder, Tojo.
[03:49] To
    Yes, sir!
[03:50] Ka
    Eighth and third baseman, Kanemaru.
[03:52] Ka
    Yes, sir!
[03:55] Ot
    Furuya, let's show them!
[03:57] Ot
    Make some big plays!
[04:01] To
    It's your starter debut.
[04:03] Ka
    Yeah, I'm a little scared.
[04:08] S1
    You want to use this?
SIGN    Blue Warriors
[04:10] S2
    No. I'll just be loud.
[04:17] Ka
    Ninth and pitcher, Sawamura.
[04:21] Sa
    Yes, sir!
[04:26] Mi
    Okay!
[04:27] Mi
    Looking good!
[04:37] Mi
    Are you going to breathe
    every ounce of air in here?
[04:43] Ku
    Looking pretty good, Sawamura.
[04:46] Ku
    Though it's all about how you pitch
    on the mound that counts.
[04:50] Sa
    No need to tell me right before the game!
[04:53] Ku
    What? Don't tell me you're nervous.
[04:56] Sa
    Of course I am.
[04:59] Sa
    It's my first time starting.
[05:01] Sa
    And there's something I want to try, too.
[05:05] Ma
    He's been using his head in practice lately.
[05:09] Ma
    I see him coming up with pitching sequences.
[05:14] Ma
    Now that he knows
    his outside pitch is effective,
[05:17] Ma
    his thoughts on the inside pitch
     have changed.
[05:23] Ma
    Though for Sawamura,
[05:25] Ma
    he probably understands it better
    with his body than with his head.
[05:29] Ku
    Let's go!
[05:30] Ku
    I'll look at your pitch from the box.
[05:32] Sa
    Thank you!
[05:34] Mi
    It's just like him to have to experience
    it firsthand to understand it.
[05:39] Mi
    He could only go aggressive
    with his inside pitches,
[05:43] Mi
    but by combining it with outside pitches,
    he gets more options,
[05:47] Mi
    and more room to work with.
[05:50] Mi
    Now that he's gained confidence
    in his outside pitches,
[05:53] Mi
    he really wants...
[06:05] Sa
    You fell right for it, Kuramochi-senpai!
[06:07] Sa
    That is a trap!
[06:09] Sa
    Now that you've seen how close the pitch is,
[06:12] Sa
    the outside pitches will feel
    like they're miles away!
[06:17] Sa
    Now, I just need to calm down
    and throw low and outside!
[06:21] Sa
    That's just preparation to finish you off
    with an outside pitch at the end!
[06:29] Ku
    Wait a minute.
[06:31] Ma
    Did you just pitch...
[06:35] Mi
    Did you just pitch...
[06:37] Mi
    ...to the inside?
[06:42] Sa
    Eh?
SIGN    Currently At Ota Stadium
SIGN    Ugumori Inashiro
[06:52] Na
    Okay! Pretty good!
[06:54] Na
    You've got him cornered,
    so no need to play around!
[06:57] Na
    Take him down by force!
[07:00] Ca
    Shut up, left field.
[07:05] I1
    Does he think everyone can pitch like him?
[07:08] I1
    Dumb ace.
[07:09] I2
    Ignore the voice from left field!
[07:13] I3
    You've got it!
[07:18] Na
    Get it, third baseman!
[07:22] Um
    Out!
[07:23] Na
    All right!
[07:24] I1
    Time to bat!
[07:26] I2
    Good job, Hirano!
[07:29] I3
    Nice pitch, Hirano-san.
[07:31] I3
    Your slider looks good today.
[07:33] I3
    Let's pitch some more—
[07:34] Na
    Hey! Hey!
[07:36] Na
    They're swinging late on your fastball!
[07:39] Na
    Push them around with it!
[07:40] Na
    You're asking for way
    too many breaking balls.
[07:42] Na
    You're pitching way too many balls!
[07:44] I3
    I'm catching for Hirano-san right now.
[07:48] Na
    Excuse me?
[07:49] Na
    Are you telling me I'm irrelevant?
[07:52] I3
    Don't get upset just
    because you're not starting.
[07:55] I1
    Goodness.
[07:56] I1
    I'm not sure if these two
    make a good pair or not.
[08:01] I4
    But really,
[08:02] I4
    I can pitch comfortably
    because I know you've got my back.
[08:08] I4
    I'll do the best I can for as long as I can.
[08:17] Na
    You sure understand well who the ace is.
[08:21] I3
    Why are you actually blushing?
[08:26] C1
    A bunt on the first pitch!
[08:28] C2
    The throw to first wasn't even close!
[08:31] C3
    Let's go, Shirakawa!
[08:33] C4
    There's the hit!
[08:35] C2
    Go for it, Yamaoka!
[08:44] C3
    Good distance!
[08:50] C3
    First run of the first inning!
[08:53] C5
    They're perfect.
[08:55] C6
    They got that run so easily.
[08:58] C3
    No wonder they're the favorite.
[09:02] IM
    The hit didn't go as far as I thought.
[09:05] IM
    I wonder if he missed the sweet spot.
[09:11] U1
    Inashiro's a pretty crazy team.
[09:13] U1
    I already gave up my first run!
[09:16] U2
    One out! One out!
[09:17] U2
    Don't worry about it!
[09:22] Na
    One run isn't good enough.
[09:25] Na
    We need to get a whole bunch,
    so Hiranocchi can pitch without pressure.
[09:37] N1
    H-He's so fast.
SIGN    His impression
[09:44] Sa
    Mr. Consistent! Shirasu-senpai!
[09:49] S1
    Right to center field!
[09:51] S2
    Nice one, Kominato!
[09:54] S3
    Nice RBI hit!
[09:57] Sa
    That's our lucky boy!
[09:59] Sa
    He followed my advice to a T!
[10:03] Ha
    Advice?
[10:04] Sa
    Stop playing dumb!
[10:06] Ma
    He's living up to the three-hole position.
[10:11] S1
    Yeah! Another hit!
[10:14] Sa
    Oh.
[10:15] Sa
    About time he realized his role in the lineup.
[10:18] S1
    Nice hit, Miyuki!
[10:20] S2
    One out and runners on first and third!
SIGN    Batting fifth and first baseman, Maezono-kun.
[10:27] Ma
    That's right.
[10:28] Ma
    Three-hole... five-hole...
    It doesn't matter.
[10:35] Ma
    I just...
[10:37] Ma
    ...do the swing I practiced.
[10:48] S1
    Right along the left field line!
[10:49] S2
    Nice long shot!
[10:51] S3
    Third run!
[10:58] Ot
    He got a hit to the left field edge again!
[11:01] Ot
    We might be seeing more of those from him!
[11:06] Ka
    He's a natural pull hitter,
[11:09] Ka
    but he knows to swing a little late,
[11:11] Ka
    which keeps the hit from going foul.
[11:16] Ka
    An inside pitch specialist.
[11:20] Ka
    Looks like his talent's finally
    starting to bear fruit.
[11:24] Ot
    If that's the case,
[11:26] Ot
    then it's all thanks to you
    for using him patiently.
[11:30] Oc
    No.
[11:31] Oc
    He's far from consistent.
[11:36] S1
    Oh, no! Furuya!
[11:38] S1
    You got tense!
[11:40] Um
    Out!
[11:44] Um
    Ball four!
[11:46] S1
    Two outs and bases loaded!
[11:56] S2
    What an opportunity on your first at-bat!
[11:59] S3
    Get 'em, Kanemaru!
[12:02] To
    The stage is set for you, Shinji.
[12:06] To
    The first pitch after base on balls.
[12:13] To
    Go for it.
[12:21] S1
    Right between left and center!
[12:24] S2
    The runners are coming home!
[12:26] S3
    Kanemaru!
SIGN    Seido Nanamori
[12:28] S1
    Look at the score in the first inning!
[12:32] S2
    That was his first RBI hit on his first at-bat,
[12:35] S2
    but he doesn't look that happy.
[12:36] S3
    Yeah.
[12:37] S4
    Is he saying it was a piece of cake for him?
[12:39] S4
    Cocky.
[12:42] S5
    I know how you feel.
[12:45] Ka
    That felt good.
[12:47] Ka
    I'm amazing.
[12:48] Ka
    That was too cool.
[12:51] C1
    This is a big change
    from the previous order.
[12:54] C2
    Looks like the change worked well.
[12:56] C3
    It's too early to say that.
[13:00] Sa
    Nice batting, Kanemaru!
[13:02] Sa
    I'm coming...
[13:04] Sa
    ...right...
[13:05] Sa
    ...after...
[13:11] S1
    He's walking back like nothing happened.
SIGN    Seido Nanamori
[13:17] Mi
    Sawamura!
[13:18] Mi
    The defense here is important.
[13:21] Mi
    If we can't keep them down here,
[13:23] Mi
    it'll give the opponent a fighting chance.
[13:25] Mi
    Forget about the five runs.
[13:27] Sa
    Yes, sir.
[13:28] Sa
    If I can!
[13:31] Mi
    Also, inside pitches.
[13:39] Mi
    I won't ask you to make it your finishing pitch,
[13:42] Mi
    but I'll ask you to pitch some on the mound.
[13:49] N1
    It's not over yet.
[13:50] N1
    It's the first inning!
[13:51] N1
    We have plenty of time to turn it around!
[13:54] N1
    Let's fight back patiently and calmly!
[13:57] N1
    Let's go! Man power!
[14:01] Sa
    The little mound looks fresh.
[14:13] Sa
    So this...
[14:15] Sa
    ...is the starter's mound.
[14:21] Sa
    Damn, Furuya.
[14:23] Sa
    You stood here like this all the time?
[14:30] Fu
    Once something happens,
    it's too late to stop it.
[14:34] Sa
    Balls will come flying your way,
[14:36] Sa
    so fielders, thank you for your support!
[14:40] Ma
    Let's go!
[14:41] Ha
    He didn't forget.
[14:43] Ha
    Nice.
[14:44] Ku
    You pitched it in the bullpen.
[14:46] Ku
    You've got it.
[14:47] Ku
    Go get 'em!
[14:51] NC
    Keep your spirits up!
[14:58] Um
    Strike!
[15:01] S1
    Nice pitch!
[15:02] S1
    Yeah!
[15:03] S2
    He's looking good!
[15:05] N1
    Huh?
[15:07] N1
    It...
[15:12] Um
    Strike!
[15:15] N1
    This pitcher throws weird!
[15:22] Um
    Ball!
[15:23] S1
    That was a ball?
[15:24] S1
    Damn.
[15:25] N1
    And his tempo...
[15:28] N1
    ...is fast!
[15:30] S1
    Another outside pitch?
[15:31] S1
    He managed to touch it.
[15:34] NC
    Don't let them play at their pace.
[15:37] Oc
    He's throwing outsides only again.
[15:40] Oc
    I'm sure it's all he can do,
[15:44] Oc
    but how long will they last like this?
[15:51] Mi
    This is preparation to
    finish him off with an outside.
[15:54] Mi
    That's what you said.
[15:57] Mi
    Then don't think too hard.
[16:00] Mi
    Give it to me here!
[16:03] Ku
    Damn, Miyuki.
[16:05] Ku
    An inside pitch already?
[16:07] Ma
    It's nothing special.
[16:10] Ma
    Go for it, Sawamura!
[16:12] Sa
    I just need a ball.
[16:14] Sa
    But if he swings, then awesome.
[16:24] Um
    Hit by pitch!
[16:27] C1
    Damn, what a waste!
[16:30] C2
    He had him cornered, too!
[16:32] C3
    He hit the first batter.
[16:35] C2
    He was pitching at a nice tempo,
    but what an outcome.
[16:37] C3
    Is he nervous to pitch as the starter?
[16:40] Sa
    I'm sorry!
[16:45] Oc
    But did he just...
[16:47] Oc
    ...pitch to the inside, sort of...
[16:53] Oc
    I guess?
[16:54] Sa
    Oops.
SIGN    Batting second and third baseman, Nishi-kun.
SIGN    Seido Nanamori
[17:02] N1
    Again?!
[17:05] Ha
    Eijun-kun, that's too much.
[17:07] Ha
    He's not taking that big a lead.
[17:10] Mi
    Focus on the batter, Sawamura.
[17:12] Mi
    If you don't...
[17:17] Um
    Ball four!
[17:19] Mi
    See?
[17:20] N1
    Base on balls!
[17:22] N2
    No outs yet!
[17:25] Ka
    Don't look mad! Calm down!
[17:28] NC
    Would you look at this?
[17:30] NC
    Baseball is unpredictable.
[17:32] NC
    Five runs doesn't mean anything.
[17:35] NC
    If we can get a run here,
[17:36] NC
    we'll be able to turn it around.
[17:39] Sa
    No outs!
[17:40] Sa
    There are still no outs!
[17:42] Ot
    He's given multiple walks since the first batter,
     and he's cornered himself.
[17:46] Ot
    It's his first time starting,
[17:48] Ot
    so maybe he's lost his cool
    after he hit the batter.
[17:54] Mi
    Calm down, Sawamura.
[17:56] Mi
    Let's restart from the outside.
[18:06] Um
    Strike!
[18:08] C1
    Nanamori doesn't bunt at all.
[18:11] C2
    I thought they'd come to score here.
[18:14] NC
    The pitcher's falling apart on his own.
[18:17] NC
    We don't need to give them a free out here.
[18:22] NC
    Focus...
[18:25] NC
    ...on just one pitch!
[18:29] C1
    He jammed it right to first base.
[18:31] C2
    But the hit has no speed.
[18:34] Um
    Out!
[18:35] C2
    He got the batter out!
[18:38] C1
    But the runners all advanced.
[18:40] C1
    They're in scoring positions now.
[18:42] NC
    Perfect!
SIGN    Batting fourth and first baseman, Goda-kun.
[18:48] N1
    Giant!
[18:49] N2
    Let's go, cleanup!
[18:51] Oc
    What a generous gift to a team
    that's five runs down.
[18:56] Oc
    How will Sawamura get through this
    his first time starting?
[19:03] N1
    He's only been pitching outsides
    since he hit the first batter.
[19:07] Ka
    Sawamura, pitch to contact!
[19:09] To
    We've got your back!
[19:12] N1
    Could it be that he doesn't
    want to pitch to the inside?
[19:27] Um
    Foul!
[19:30] S1
    That was a foul?
[19:31] S2
    Phew!
[19:32] S2
    It would've been bad if it'd been fair.
[19:36] S1
    Sawamura.
[19:38] N1
    I swung late?
[19:40] Oc
    This looks bad.
[19:43] S1
    Calm down!
[19:44] S2
    You have cat eyes!
[19:50] Mi
    He stepped in without a second thought.
[19:54] Mi
    Is he thinking we'll only pitch to the outside?
[19:58] Mi
    I would love to pitch some inside
    and get him off his game.
[20:06] Mi
    But is Sawamura ready
    to do that right now?
[20:12] Mi
    We have some runs,
    and this is the first inning.
[20:14] Mi
    I personally want Sawamura
    to overcome the yips, too,
[20:20] Mi
    but we should play it safe
    and go outside here.
[20:31] Ha
    Eijun-kun.
[20:32] Ka
    Sawamura.
[20:33] Sa
    He didn't hesitate as he
    stepped in for the swing.
[20:36] Sa
    Even I understand what he's thinking.
[20:40] Sa
    He doesn't think I'll pitch inside.
[20:44] ---
    You...
[20:46] Sa
    We have to go inside right here.
[21:09] Mi
    This batter's not expecting
    any inside pitches.
[21:12] Mi
    He'll fall back even if it's not in too much.
[21:16] Mi
    Give me a strike!
[21:21] NC
    With Giant's power,
    he can hit to the outfield.
[21:24] NC
    Double check the fielders' positions.
[21:28] Sa
    Just like usual.
[21:31] Sa
    Gotta relax.
[21:34] N1
    I'm confident I won't lose in power.
[21:41] Sa
    Relax my entire body.
[21:46] Sa
    And focus on just one point.
[21:52] Sa
    Right here!
[23:30] Mi
    Ugumori faces the summer
    champions, Inashiro.
[23:33] Mi
    Their ace is Seiichi Umemiya.
[23:35] Um
    Inashiro's not using their ace?
[23:37] Um
    That's some confidence they have.
[23:38] Na
    I'm on standby right behind you!
[23:40] Na
    You can't lose in baseball
    if you don't give up any runs.
[23:42] Um
    Why don't you stay there
    till the end, Mei Narumiya?
