    West Tokyo Tournament final.
[00:03] R2
    Inashiro versus Seido.
[00:07] R2
    In the bottom of the seventh inning,
    Seido was defending.
[00:10] R2
    Tanba-kun had been pitching well
    after switching with Furuya-kun,
SIGN    Furuya
[00:16] R2
    but something terrible happened to him.
[00:19] R2
    And in perhaps the most
    important part of the game,
[00:23] R2
    Coach Kataoka chose to go with...
[00:28] (Flashback) An
    Pitcher, Sawamura-kun.
[00:33] (Flashback) Ta
    Sawamura.
[00:39] (Flashback) Yu
    Tanba.
[00:44] (Flashback) Yu
    We won't let it end here.
[00:49] (Flashback) Yu
    We'll give you...
[00:50] (Flashback) Yu
    ...another chance.
[00:53] (Flashback) Yu
    We'll put you back on the mound again!
[01:02] (Flashback) Mi
    I hope you know your job.
[01:07] (Flashback) Mi
    Your job isn't to pitch well.
[01:12] (Flashback) Mi
    It's to pitch with energy.
SIGN    The Kings of Summer
[02:58] (Flashback) Um
    Strike!
[03:02] Na
    What's with his form?
[03:06] Na
    I can't see the ball!
[03:12] (Flashback) Um
    Strike!
[03:14] Na
    What? Again?
[03:16] (Flashback) I1
    Another inside pitch?
[03:19] C2
    Three consecutive pitches...
[03:21] C2
    ...to the inside?
[03:23] Na
    You little... Don't get cocky!
[03:38] R2
    In the final of the tournament,
[03:41] R2
    Sawamura-kun pitched confidently
    after taking Tanba-kun's spot.
[03:45] R2
    His sucess gave Seido a chance.
[03:49] R2
    Coach Kataoka's pitcher relay
[03:52] R2
    may not have gone as he intended,
[03:55] R2
    but it was ultimately a success.
[03:58] R2
    The top of the eighth was
    a turning point for Seido.
[04:03] (Flashback) Ka
    If we continue to play like we have,
[04:06] (Flashback) Ka
    we can't win.
[04:09] (Flashback) Ka
    Swing with your normal form until the end!
[04:19] (Flashback) An
    Finally after seven innings,
[04:21] (Flashback) An
    could this be the spark Seido needed?
[04:24] (Flashback) Sa
    Well hit, Furuya!
[04:26] (Flashback) Sa
    Leave the rest to me!
SIGN    touch
[04:34] (Flashback) An
    A successful sacrifice bunt!
[04:40] (Flashback) I1
    Mei!
[04:42] (Flashback) An
    First base! Safe!
[04:44] (Flashback) An
    One out with runners on first and third!
[04:53] (Flashback) Ma
    A squeeze bunt after two strikes?
[04:58] (Flashback) Ma
    First base!
SIGN    Seido Inashiro
[05:03] (Flashback) An
    Seido finally scores
    in the eighth inning!
[05:05] (Flashback) An
    And a runner is still on second!
[05:09] An
    Pinch hitting for the second batter
    and baseman, Ryosuke Kominato-kun,
[05:14] An
    is Haruichi Kominato-kun.
[05:19] (Flashback) Ry
    Smack the first pitch, Haruichi.
[05:24] (Flashback) Ry
    You've got this.
[05:49] (Flashback) An
    It's a hit!
[05:51] (Flashback) An
    Both left and center ran
    for it but were a step away!
[05:54] (Flashback) An
    Pinch hitter Kominato hit one
    into the left while breaking his bat!
[06:00] (Flashback) Is
    Thanks for setting up the stage for me!
[06:05] (Flashback) An
    Isashiki fought for a walk!
[06:41] Ma
    He's reacted well to both
    a forkball and a high ball.
[06:46] Ma
    Mei's fastball is definitely at its peak.
[06:50] Ma
    The pitch that could make it even better...
[06:54] Ma
    ...is his change-up.
[07:01] Na
    I can hear you all loud and clear,
[07:06] Na
    even if you don't scream.
[07:08] Na
    It's the ace's job to meet
    everyone's expectations.
[07:17] Na
    I still have to redeem myself at nationals.
[07:21] Na
    So I'll...
[07:26] Na
    I'll perfect this pitch right here, and...
[07:40] Na
    ...we'll go to nationals!
[07:48] Ch
    A change-up?
[07:51] Ma
    Yes!
[07:53] Ma
    We've got him off balance.
[08:10] (Flashback) Is
    Yeah!
[08:12] (Flashback) I1
    Carlos!
[08:13] (Flashback) Sa
    Come on!
[08:17] (Flashback) An
    Both the second and
    third base runners scored!
[08:23] (Flashback) An
    The cleanup turned the game
    around with a clean hit!
[08:27] (Flashback) An
    Yuki's RBI double in the eighth inning
[08:31] (Flashback) An
    finally puts Seido on top!
[08:38] R2
    Narumiya-kun tried to
    finish with his change-up,
[08:41] R2
    but Yuki-kun got a beautiful hit off
[08:44] R2
    and managed to turn the game around.
[08:47] R2
    In the bottom of the eighth,
[08:48] R2
    Miyuki-kun made a bold call
    with a runner on base.
[08:54] Sa
    If he's telling me to throw it,
    then he trusts me, right?
[08:59] Sa
    That I can do it.
[09:10] I1
    Inside.
[09:11] I1
    Right where I wanted it!
[09:22] (Flashback) An
    Out!
[09:23] (Flashback) An
    It's a double play!
[09:25] (Flashback) An
    We go into the next inning!
[09:28] (Flashback) An
    Inashiro couldn't score in
    the bottom of the eighth!
[09:31] (Flashback) An
    They got a runner on base,
    but then went down after three batters!
[09:36] R2
    What happened in the eighth inning
    was crucial for both teams.
[09:41] R2
    For Inashiro, their ace
    unbelievably gave up three runs.
[09:45] R2
    For Seido, Sawamura-kun managed
    to keep Inashiro down.
[09:55] (Flashback) An
    With no outs, there's a runner
     in scoring position!
[10:01] (Flashback) I1
    Can't make third!
[10:03] R2
    Then, Inashiro's infielders
    gathered around the mound.
[10:09] (Flashback) I1
    Infield all in?
[10:11] (Flashback) I2
    Yeah.
[10:12] (Flashback) I2
    Watch out for their squeeze bunt.
[10:14] (Flashback) I3
    We still have a chance to bat.
[10:17] (Flashback) I3
    Let's defend this inning
    and switch to offense on a high note!
[10:20] (Flashback) I4
    Yeah.
[10:22] (Flashback) Na
    It's not hot enough.
[10:28] (Flashback) Na
    The mound at nationals
[10:30] (Flashback) Na
    was much hotter.
[10:34] (Flashback) Na
    Much...
[10:36] (Flashback) Na
    Much...
[10:42] (Flashback) Na
    Maybe it's because I always
    imagined myself at the nationals...
[10:48] (Flashback) Na
    And I know it sounds strange
     after giving up four runs, but...
SIGN    Seido Inashiro
[10:54] (Flashback) Na
    I can't picture us losing.
[10:59] (Flashback) Na
    I can't picture us losing this game.
[11:07] (Flashback) Na
    Oops! Did I worry you?
[11:10] (Flashback) Na
    Does it sound like I've gone crazy?
[11:15] R2
    Narumiya-kun is undoubtedly
    the true ace of Inashiro.
[11:21] Na
    I'm still stuck in last summer.
[11:32] Na
    You guys don't know
    what nationals is like.
[11:38] Na
    Unless I...
[11:39] Na
    Unless I go to nationals again,
[11:45] Na
    my summer season will never start.
[11:57] (Flashback) Um
    Out!
[12:00] (Flashback) An
    Seido doesn't get the run!
[12:06] (Flashback) An
    Strike out!
[12:08] (Flashback) An
    His change-up comes through!
[12:13] (Flashback) An
    The crowd is going wild about the ace
    who pitched all nine innings!
[12:19] R2
    And we went into the bottom of the ninth.
[12:22] R2
    If Seido managed to persevere,
[12:24] R2
    they would make the nationals
    for the first time in six years.
[12:27] (Flashback) Ka
    Listen up!
[12:28] (Flashback) Ka
    They're coming after a run
    with everything they've got.
[12:31] (Flashback) Ka
    Be careful about getting each out!
[12:34] (Flashback) Ka
    Don't think you've won
    until the very end!
[12:36] (Flashback) SS
    Yes, sir!
[12:37] R2
    On the other hand,
    if Inashiro couldn't score,
[12:42] R2
    they'd be denied their trip to the nationals.
[12:44] (Flashback) IC
    Well?
[12:45] (Flashback) IC
    Do you have a clear vision of our victory?
[12:48] (Flashback) II
    Yes, sir!
[12:50] (Flashback) IC
    Listen up.
[12:51] (Flashback) IC
    We don't need two runs.
[12:53] (Flashback) IC
    Just get one run.
[12:55] (Flashback) IC
    If we go into extra innings,
[12:57] (Flashback) IC
    we will win.
[13:00] R2
    Bottom of the ninth.
[13:01] R2
    Three more outs until the game ended.
[13:03] R2
    There was immense pressure on everyone.
[13:08] Sa
    In order to live,
[13:10] Sa
    I have to beat them!
[13:13] Sa
    I can't lose.
[13:20] Sa
    I can't...
[13:22] Sa
    ...let them overwhelm me!
[13:27] (Flashback) Sa
    Harucchi!
[13:30] (Flashback) Um
    Out!
[13:36] R2
    Two more outs.
[13:42] Mi
    Bad pitch!
[13:47] (Flashback) Um
    Foul!
[13:49] Ca
    If you give me a nice one, I'm gonna hit it.
[13:57] Sa
    What drives you so much?
[14:03] Sa
    Why do you fight so hard?
[14:09] Sa
    I don't know what the nationals are like,
[14:14] Sa
    but if I run away here,
[14:17] Sa
    I feel like I'll never be able to pitch.
[14:24] Sa
    I'm not running away!
[14:33] (Flashback) II
    Yes!
[14:43] R2
    At last, with just one more out,
[14:45] R2
    Seido would go to nationals.
[14:50] (Flashback) CC
    One more out! One more out!
[14:59] Ku
    We've got this.
[15:01] I1
    We're gonna win!
[15:06] Is
    We're gonna make it!
SIGN    Hanshin Koshien Stadium
[15:09] (Flashback) SS
    We're going to nationals!
[15:19] Sa
    I can't be overwhelmed.
[15:21] (Flashback) C1
    Sawamura!
[15:22] (Flashback) C3
    Finish it!
[15:23] (Flashback) C2
    Shirakawa-kun!
[15:25] Sa
    I can't run away here!
[15:28] Sa
    Further...
[15:31] Sa
    Further in!
[15:46] (Flashback) Um
    Hit by pitch!
[15:49] R2
    The HBP of Doom.
[15:53] R2
    The pressure of pitching in the
    final inning of the tournament final
[15:58] R2
    was too much for a first-year to handle.
[16:02] R2
    Then Kawakami-kun took
    the baton to close the game.
[16:07] (Flashback) Ka
    I won't run away.
[16:09] (Flashback) Ka
    I'll get aggressive, just like you did.
[16:13] (Flashback) An
    Two outs and a man on first
    at the bottom of the ninth!
[16:16] (Flashback) An
    Kawakami has taken the mound
     to get the final out for Seido.
[16:20] (Flashback) An
    Here's his first pitch.
[16:26] (Flashback) An
    A strike to the outside!
[16:29] (Flashback) An
    Pitch two!
[16:33] (Flashback) An
    A slider dodges the bat!
[16:36] (Flashback) An
    He has quickly cornered the batter!
[16:39] (Flashback) ---
    Yoshi-san!
[16:41] (Flashback) ---
    Come on, Yoshi-san!
[16:49] (Flashback) An
    His third pitch goes in a little high.
[16:54] (Flashback) An
    The slider to the outside is a ball!
[16:59] (Flashback) I1
    Good eyes!
[17:00] (Flashback) I2
    You've got this!
[17:04] R2
    Just one pitch would decide the game.
[17:10] (Flashback) An
    Ball!
[17:23] (Flashback) An
    He fought for a walk!
[17:26] (Flashback) An
    That's two walks in a row
    for Seido at two outs.
[17:33] (Flashback) An
    With a runner in a scoring position,
    the cleanup is at bat!
[17:38] R2
    But Seido would not back down.
[17:43] (Flashback) Yu
    Let's trust the work we've put in.
[17:49] SS
    If we play the baseball
    that we've practiced...
[17:56] (Flashback) Yu
    Let's go!
[17:57] (Flashback) SS
    Yeah!
[17:59] SS
    ...results will follow naturally!
[18:02] Mi
    We can't win if we stay passive.
[18:05] Mi
    Give me one to the inside.
[18:09] Ma
    I'll end it.
[18:12] Ma
    I'll end the game.
[18:51] (Flashback) Um
    Safe! Safe!
[18:56] (Flashback) SS
    Home!
[18:58] Ku
    Crap!
[18:59] (Flashback) Ku
    Miyuki!
[19:17] (Flashback) An
    He scores!
[19:21] (Flashback) An
    Inashiro ties the game
[19:23] (Flashback) An
    at the last second!
[19:31] (Flashback) An
    Inashiro has tied up
    the game at the last second.
[19:37] (Flashback) Ka
    It's not over!
[19:38] (Flashback) Ka
    Switch gears!
[19:42] Ka
    Defend this inning
    and segue into the next.
[19:47] Ka
    Don't forget what you have to do now!
[19:52] Yu
    That's right.
[19:55] Is
    It's not over.
[20:15] SS
    Get your chin up.
[20:19] SS
    The game isn't over yet.
[20:38] Is
    No way!
[20:42] Is
    No!
[20:50] SS
    No!
[21:11] R2
    The West Tokyo tournament
    final was seized by Inashiro.
SIGN    Narumiya Loses Steam
    After 14 Innings
[21:23] R2
    Inashiro took second
    at the summer nationals.
[21:32] R2
    I'm excited to see the fall
    season with new teams.
[21:35] R2
    Inashiro, Seido,
[21:38] R2
    Ichidai, Yakushi, Teito...
[21:42] R2
    There are many strong schools.
[21:47] R2
    The fall tournament will
    also lead to nationals.
[21:58] R2
    Now, the battle for the top begins once more.
[23:35] Mi
    The fall tournament finally begins.
[23:37] Mi
    We're up against Teito
    from East Tokyo first.
[23:39] Sa
    They made to the round of 16
    in the summer nationals,
[23:42] Sa
    and their ace is a first-year
    named Taiyo Mukai.
[23:44] Sa
    A first-year?
