SIGN    Seido had a huge chance to score with one out and the bases loaded,
SIGN    but it just fell short!
[00:07] BC
    Follow the data and get the definitive outs.
[00:11] BC
    In the end, this is the strongest way to play.
[00:18] B1
    I can do this.
[00:20] B1
    I can take on Seido with my pitch.
[00:25] B1
    I'll beat this team
[00:27] B1
    and prove I'm better.
[00:34] Sa
    What? Me?
[00:36] Sa
    Of course!
[00:37] Mi
    Are you ready?
[00:38] Sa
    I was born ready!
[00:43] Wa
    Eijun's taking the mound?
[00:46] B1
    He's running with a grounder to third?
SIGN    Seido has tied the game!
[00:52] B1
    He slid right into me.
[00:55] B1
    He's really aggressive.
[00:59] Ha
    Brother.
[01:02] Ha
    I'll do it, too.
SIGN    Revenge
[02:36] S1
    Yes!
[02:37] S1
    We've tied! Tied!
[02:39] S1
    We've finally caught up, Takako-senpai!
[02:42] S2
    One out with runners on first and third.
[02:44] S2
    We can still score again.
[02:47] S3
    Let's turn the game around this inning!
[02:49] R1
    He ran straight for home
    with a grounder to third.
[02:52] R2
    They probably practice this play daily.
[02:55] R2
    The batter hit the grounder,
[02:57] R2
    and the runner ran without
    even giving it a thought.
[03:01] R2
    They put pressure on the opponents
    by always making aggressive plays.
[03:06] R2
    This offensive style is how
    Coach Kataoka likes to play baseball.
[03:15] Mi
    Seriously?
[03:22] Um
    Ball four!
[03:27] Ot
    They walked him again!
[03:28] Ot
    That's two at-bats in a row!
[03:31] Ch
    Miyuki has played a key role
    in many games this tournament.
[03:35] Ch
    Perhaps they don't plan to take him on at all.
[03:39] BC
    This is fine.
[03:40] BC
    Never fight a battle you might not win.
[03:47] Um
    Strike!
[03:48] Um
    Batter out!
[03:55] Mi
    His fastball has gotten faster.
[03:57] Mi
    He's getting fired up
    from walking me every time.
[04:03] Mi
    I bet the coach knew this would happen, too.
[04:13] Ka
    Tanba!
SIGN    For the eighth batter,
SIGN    Haruichi Kominato-kun will be replacing Tanba-kun.
[04:35] R1
    They used a pinch hitter for the ace!
[04:36] R1
    That's crazy!
[04:38] Sa
    Get a hit, Harucchi!
SIGN    Itching to play
SIGN    Itching to play
[04:41] Fu
    I want to play.
[04:44] R2
    Coach Kataoka's making his move.
[04:49] R2
    This inning will be the turning point.
[04:53] BC
    He's doing his pitcher relay, I see.
[04:55] BC
    If we can defend against it,
[04:57] BC
    the game will be in our favor, Maki.
[05:10] Ha
    I'm taking Tanba-san's place.
[05:12] Ha
    This is a huge responsibility.
[05:15] Ha
    But with two outs and the bases loaded,
[05:18] Ha
    the coach trusted me to go up.
[05:22] Ha
    I don't want to let him down.
[05:28] B1
    They replaced their ace with a pinch hitter?
[05:32] B1
    He's still a first-year, too.
[05:37] B2
    Maki! Let's stop them here!
[05:39] B3
    Pitch to contact!
[05:42] B1
    You're a first-year!
[05:46] B1
    You're still a first-year!
[05:51] B2
    Yeah! Nice throw!
[05:53] B3
    Keep your pitch low!
[05:55] BC
    His pitch is on fire.
[05:57] BC
    There's nothing to worry about here, then.
[06:02] Um
    Ball!
[06:04] Sa
    Yes! Great call!
[06:06] Sa
    Harucchi has keen eyes.
[06:12] Ha
    Standing here makes me truly realize
[06:15] Ha
    just how big this pitcher is.
[06:18] Ha
    But...
[06:19] Ha
    His fastballs are extremely close
    to what the coach pitched yesterday.
[06:24] Ha
    If only...
[06:25] Ha
    ...I could see his curveball
    before I'm cornered.
[06:35] Um
    Foul!
[06:36] Ha
    Another fastball.
[06:38] Ot
    The count is 1-2!
[06:40] Ot
    He's cornered.
[06:41] Ot
    This may have been too much for a first-year.
[06:45] Mi
    Okay! Okay!
[06:46] Mi
    Your timing's right!
[06:48] Yu
    Just swing big!
[06:50] BC
    He's had two at-bats
    and two hits this tournament.
[06:53] BC
    His batting average is one.
[06:54] BC
    We don't have enough data on him,
[06:56] BC
    but he certainly has talent.
[06:59] BC
    But he can't hit any long ones.
[07:02] BC
    Just overpower him with your fastballs.
[07:05] BC
    You have plenty of power to do that.
[07:09] Ha
    Will he throw a curveball?
[07:11] Ha
    Or will he stick to his fastballs until the end?
[07:14] Ry
    Don't think too much.
[07:17] Ry
    I know for a fact
[07:18] Ry
    that you can hit anything he throws.
[07:24] B1
    You're just a first-year.
[07:29] B1
    It's too soon for you...
[07:31] B1
    ...to be wearing that uniform!
[07:41] Ha
    A curveball!
[07:42] Ry
    Hold it in!
[07:44] Ry
    Keep your bat head high.
[07:46] Ry
    It's all in the hips.
[07:48] Ry
    Smack it away!
[07:55] BC
    Why did you throw a curveball, Maki?
[07:58] B1
    Left! Back!
[08:00] BC
    Did you get too greedy
    trying to get a strikeout?
[08:04] Ha
    It went a little too high.
[08:06] B2
    I was too far up thinking he couldn't hit far.
[08:14] Ha
    Get over!
[08:19] S1
    Yeah!
[08:23] Ka
    He hit it right over the left fielder!
[08:26] S1
    All the runners are home!
[08:28] S2
    That was a three RBI double!
[08:31] S3
    We're up by three now!
[08:33] Ot
    Kominato did an amazing job!
[08:35] Ot
    He hit their pitcher's
    curveball as the pinch hitter!
[08:39] Sa
    Yeah!
[08:40] Sa
    Nice hit, Harucchi!
[08:45] (Flashback) ---
    Huh?
[08:46] (Flashback) Ha
    What do I think about when I'm at bat?
[08:49] (Flashback) Ha
    Just hitting the ball back, I guess?
[08:56] (Flashback) S1
    He's really amazing.
[08:57] (Flashback) S2
    How does he make contact so easily?
[09:00] Ka
    "Just hitting the ball back," huh?
[09:03] Ka
    That's the hardest thing to do in a game.
[09:07] Ch
    He's hit three for three so far.
[09:10] Ch
    His batting average is still one.
[09:12] Ch
    He may be our lucky boy this tournament.
[09:16] Ka
    Look!
[09:17] Ka
    He's pumping his fist with a red face!
[09:19] Ma
    Can't do anything about that, huh?
[09:26] F1
    Yes!
[09:27] F1
    They turned the game around!
[09:29] F2
    He's still a first-year, right?
[09:31] Ha
    I got really lucky with the three runs,
[09:32] Ha
    but this should make
    Eijun-kun's job a little easier.
[09:41] Yu
    This inning's crucial!
[09:43] Is
    Yeah!
[09:44] Ry
    One out at a time!
[09:46] Sa
    Let's go!
[09:47] Ka
    You've got some buffer!
[09:48] Ma
    Throw with confidence!
[09:51] Ch
    Just pitch like you always do, Sawamura.
[09:54] F1
    Yeah! Ei-chan!
[09:56] F2
    Good luck!
[09:59] R1
    They brought Sawamura-kun out.
[10:01] R2
    This is his third consecutive relieving game.
[10:05] R1
    In order to make a strong statement
    after turning the game around,
[10:08] R1
    defending this inning is key.
[10:12] R2
    If there's one thing to worry about,
[10:14] R2
    it's how he got switched out in the last game
[10:18] R2
    after giving up a home run
    and breaking down.
[10:22] Sa
    Let's go!
[10:24] BC
    What were you thinking?
[10:26] BC
    You should've gone with a fastball.
[10:27] BC
    You could've avoided three runs
    if you had kept their batter from hitting far.
[10:32] BC
    Hino!
[10:33] BC
    Be ready to go any time!
[10:36] B1
    Yes, sir!
[10:37] BC
    If anything else happens,
    I'm taking Maki off the mound.
[10:42] B2
    Relax, Maki.
[10:44] B2
    He always says that.
[10:46] B3
    Just cover your ears.
[10:48] B2
    We'll get those three runs back.
[10:51] B3
    You can count on it.
[10:52] B2
    You're something else today.
[10:55] B2
    I feel it, just watching your back.
[11:01] BC
    I can hear everything you say.
[11:04] BC
    It's true. Maki's a different beast today,
[11:07] BC
    which makes that one pitch
    all the more disappointing.
[11:11] BC
    Listen up!
[11:12] BC
    Let's go on the offensive this inning
     and turn back the tide.
[11:16] BB
    Yes, sir!
[11:17] BC
    Seriously, though.
[11:19] BC
    Rack up some points
    and let Maki feel at ease.
[11:33] Sa
    Somewhere in the bleachers,
[11:35] Sa
    they're watching me pitch.
[11:38] Sa
    I can't mess up big...
[11:43] Sa
    ...in front of them!
[11:47] F1
    Yes! A strike on the first pitch!
[11:49] F2
    Great job, Ei-chan!
[11:51] F2
    Nice pitch!
[11:55] Wa
    He's pitching a lot quicker now,
[11:57] Wa
    and his form has changed a bit.
[12:04] F1
    Yeah!
[12:04] F1
    Go all the way!
[12:07] Um
    Ball four!
[12:13] Sa
    What have I done?!
[12:16] Sa
    Walking the first batter
    is the worst thing I could've done!
[12:20] Sa
    Let's calm down first.
SIGN    Breathe in
SIGN    Breathe out
[12:22] Ku
    Do that before you pitch!
SIGN    Breathe in
SIGN    Breathe out
SIGN    Breathe in
[12:24] Mi
    Can't he just pitch quietly?
SIGN    Breathe out
SIGN    Breathe in
SIGN    Breathe out
[12:27] B1
    His left arm came out
    a lot later than I expected.
[12:31] B1
    It's gonna be hard to time his pitches.
[12:34] BC
    Good job. Good walk.
[12:35] BC
    Getting on base was important.
[12:37] BC
    I'll praise you later.
[12:41] B1
    Is he psyching me out?
[12:44] Mi
    A bunt, huh?
[12:46] Mi
    It's not a surprise, coming from them,
[12:49] Mi
    but let's not lower our guards.
[12:52] Yu
    Steal!
SIGN    The second baseman went to cover the base and missed it!
SIGN    It wasn't a solid hit, but it goes into the right field.
[13:03] Sa
    A hit and run?
[13:04] Ku
    Third!
[13:09] Um
    Safe!
SIGN    A hit and run that took the second baseman by surprise!
SIGN    Sensen batters' crafty play is giving Sawamura a hard time!
[13:21] S1
    No outs and runners on first and third.
[13:23] S2
    Sawamura-kun...
[13:26] BC
    Life has its ups and downs,
    and so does this game.
[13:30] BC
    He swapped out their ace for a pinch hitter.
[13:34] BC
    It's a very bold move that you can't do
[13:37] BC
    without a solid team of pitchers.
[13:40] BC
    However,
[13:42] BC
    this is what's scary about a relay.
[13:45] BC
    No one can pitch his best
    every time he comes to the mound.
[13:50] BC
    Not to mention, he's a green first-year.
[13:52] BC
    That increases the risk even more.
[13:55] BC
    Listen up.
[13:56] BC
    His pitch is special, but he has no speed.
[13:59] BC
    If you swing the bat,
    you'll hit it past the infield.
[14:02] BC
    Take him out slowly but surely.
[14:05] BB
    Yes, sir!
[14:10] BC
    Then you'll be able to see
    their greenhorn coach lose his cool.
[14:15] Mi
    Excuse me. Time-out pl—
[14:16] Sa
    Stop right there!
[14:19] Sa
    I'm fine!
[14:20] Sa
    No time-outs!
[14:22] Sa
    "It's baseball, so you'll
    always allow some hits."
[14:26] Sa
    "You're not a real pitcher
    until you give up a run."
[14:29] Mi
    What?
[14:33] Is
    What's going on?
[14:34] Mi
    No, wait.
[14:36] Mi
    You got the second part all wrong.
[14:39] Ka
    He turned down the time-out.
[14:41] S1
    Is he saying he has
    the situation under control?
[14:44] Ry
    He's cocky.
[14:45] Re
    When did he become so reliable?
[14:50] Ot
    You idiot!
[14:51] BC
    That first-year's trying to look tough.
[14:58] Mi
    Well.
[14:59] Mi
    I guess this is who he is.
[15:05] Ch
    He looks calm, at least.
[15:09] R1
    Looks like the fielders
    are prepared to concede a run here.
[15:12] R2
    They probably want their first out.
[15:16] Mi
    Don't worry about their runner.
[15:18] Mi
    Focus on the batter.
[15:22] F1
    You've got this, Ei-chan!
[15:24] F2
    You can do it!
[15:24] F2
    Get him out!
[15:27] Wa
    Eijun.
[15:35] Sa
    Bring it on!
[15:39] Sa
    A squeeze play!
[15:42] Um
    Ball!
[15:43] Sa
    What?
[15:45] Sa
    The runner didn't run?
[15:47] Mi
    You're putting pressure on him now?
[15:50] Mi
    A relieving pitcher's always
    looking for that first out.
[15:55] Mi
    So you've prioritized taking out
    the pitcher over scoring right now.
[16:02] Um
    Ball!
[16:05] Mi
    Forget about the runner.
[16:07] Mi
    Focus on facing the batter.
[16:12] BC
    He should be throwing a strike soon.
[16:18] B1
    Right down the middle!
[16:21] B1
    Crap! I swung late?
[16:23] Sa
    Brother!
[16:24] BC
    What are you doing popping a fly?
[16:33] B1
    That's one run for now!
SIGN    Runners on first and second now.
SIGN    Sawamura's struggling to get his first out.
[16:41] Ch
    He got himself in trouble with a walk,
[16:44] Ch
    and even though he jammed the batter,
    the ball still went over the infield.
[16:47] Ch
    Sawamura's problems
    have all surfaced already.
[16:52] BC
    That fly scared me for a second,
[16:54] BC
    but it looks like the tide is turning around.
[16:59] Mi
    Sawamura! First base!
[17:01] Um
    Out!
[17:03] Mi
    Runners on second and third.
[17:05] Mi
    The tying runner is on second.
[17:08] Mi
    They didn't squeeze when
    they had a runner on third,
[17:11] Mi
    but as soon as they score,
    they sacrifice bunt.
[17:14] Mi
    That coach...
[17:15] Mi
    ...really knows how to make the
    pitcher feel uncomfortable.
[17:19] Re
    Sensen's batters are putting
    a lot of pressure on him.
[17:23] Re
    This is where he needs
    to stand his ground.
[17:25] Re
    You need to do everything you can
    to hold them down, Sawamura-kun.
[17:34] Ka
    Sawamura.
[17:39] Ot
    Hey, Furuya!
[17:41] Ot
    Why are you going to the bullpen?
[17:45] Sa
    Furuya?
[17:47] Sa
    You're on break today!
[17:49] Sa
    Go sit back in the dugout!
[17:51] [SONG] On-screen
    Ignored
[17:52] Ot
    Is this okay, Coach?
[17:54] Ka
    Leave it.
[17:55] Ka
    It's his way of motivating him.
[17:56] Ot
    I doubt that's on his mind.
[18:00] Fu
    Miyauchi-senpai,
[18:01] Fu
    may I ask you to catch my pitch as well?
[18:04] Ka
    Furuya?
[18:07] Mi
    I've gotta catch for Kawakami.
[18:08] Mi
    You can do it alone.
SIGN    Shock
[18:11] Ka
    Kominato.
[18:13] Ka
    Relay a message.
[18:15] Sa
    Harucchi, you, too?
[18:16] Sa
    What are you doing here?
[18:18] Ka
    I'm relaying a message.
[18:21] BC
    Their favorite pitcher relay is breaking apart,
[18:24] BC
    and they're panicking.
[18:26] B1
    Maki!
[18:28] B1
    Swing from the first pitch!
[18:30] B1
    We've got momentum!
[18:32] B2
    Let's take that pitcher down!
[18:34] B3
    O-Okay.
[18:37] (Flashback) B2
    You're something else today.
[18:40] (Flashback) B2
    I feel it just watching your back.
[18:44] (Flashback) BC
    Rack up some points and
    let Maki feel at ease.
[18:49] B3
    No.
[18:51] B3
    I was just...
    doing this for myself.
[18:55] BC
    You have the power for
    a long hit if you make contact.
[18:58] BC
    Just swing all the way,
    and you'll get it into the outfield.
[19:03] BC
    You can do whatever
    you want for this at-bat.
[19:08] Ku
    Wow! What is that?
[19:11] BC
    What's all the laughter over there?
[19:14] Sa
    What?
[19:15] Sa
    What kind of message is that?
[19:16] Sa
    It's for Masuko-senpai, not me?
[19:19] Ha
    Well, so...
[19:20] Ha
    The coach said,
[19:22] Ha
    "If Masuko-senpai's hat comes off,
    it'll break our concentration, so be careful."
[19:27] Yu
    That's actually true.
[19:29] Ry
    Why don't we draw a hat on his head?
[19:31] Ku
    You two are merciless!
[19:36] BC
    They're just putting up a front.
[19:38] BC
    Make them scream in fear with your bat.
[19:45] Ku
    Well, if the coach isn't telling you anything,
[19:48] Ku
    then it means the situation
    isn't as bad as you think.
[19:51] Yu
    It's still the mid-game.
[19:53] Ry
    If they score, we'll score some more.
[20:00] Mi
    But you've given up a run again this game.
[20:03] Mi
    Are you going to keep this up
    and walk off in shame?
[20:06] Mi
    Or will you stand your ground
    and come back next inning?
[20:11] Mi
    Your potential as a pitcher
    is being tested here.
[20:16] Ku
    You idiot!
[20:17] Ku
    We're trying to make him relax right now.
[20:24] (Flashback) Mi
    Don't tell me you're afraid to pitch now
[20:26] (Flashback) Mi
    because you gave up a home run.
[20:32] Sa
    I'll never...
[20:36] Sa
    I'll never let you say that again.
[20:44] Ry
    Cocky.
[20:47] Ku
    These two...
[20:50] Sa
    I'm going to focus on the batter,
    so everyone please—
[20:53] Ku
    Shut up!
[20:53] Ry
    We can hear you.
[21:04] (Flashback) B2
    We'll get those three runs back.
[21:05] (Flashback) B3
    You can count on it.
[21:07] B1
    Maki! Swing from the first pitch!
[21:09] B4
    You've got this!
[21:11] (Flashback) BC
    Let Maki feel at ease.
[21:14] B5
    I'll get them back.
[21:17] B5
    I gave up those runs,
[21:20] B5
    so I'll get them back.
[21:23] Mi
    He's here to make a big play.
[21:27] Yu
    Do your best, Sawamura!
[21:29] Ma
    Pitch to contact!
[21:31] F1
    You've got this, Ei-chan!
[21:32] F2
    Let's go!
[21:33] F3
    Come on!
[21:37] Mi
    He's not in the front of the lineup,
[21:39] Mi
    but he got a big hit his last at-bat.
[21:42] Mi
    Let's keep it all low.
[23:36] BC
    You see, I always feel bad for you.
[23:39] BC
    You guys never seem to...
[23:42] B1
    To be frank, I knew from the very start.
[23:45] Mi
    Sawamura, your potential
    as a pitcher is being tested here.
[23:49] Sa
    I won't be left behind by everyone!
[23:52] Wa
    Eijun.
[23:53] Sa
