[00:03] Ka
    Yeah!
SIGN    Strikeout!
SIGN    Seido's Kawakami easily takes out their six-, seven-, and eight-holes.
[00:11] S1
    Nice pitch!
[00:12] S2
    Nice, Nori!
[00:16] Sa
    Steal!
[00:18] Ka
    Swing at every easy strike.
[00:23] Ka
    As a runner, go as far as you can.
[00:28] Y1
    Damn! I won't make third.
[00:31] Y1
    Yone!
[00:43] Y2
    Home!
SIGN    He's not stopping at third!
[00:46] Y3
    Seriously?
SIGN    He scores!
SIGN    That's their second run!
SIGN    Kuramochi scores from first off of a base hit!
[01:08] Ma
    What the heck?
[01:12] Ma
    Is it getting faster every pitch?
[01:22] Um
    Strike!
[01:23] Um
    Batter out!
SIGN    A swinging strikeout!
SIGN    To This Side
[03:06] C1
    Man, that was crazy.
[03:08] C1
    That Todoroki guy is insane.
[03:10] C1
    He's not just a monster slugger,
    but he's a fiendish pitcher, too.
[03:14] C1
    In the end, he got the four-, five-,
    six-holes out with just fastballs.
[03:20] C1
    The relief looked reckless, but it worked.
[03:23] C1
    This could turn the tide.
[03:29] C2
    Yuki?
[03:30] C2
    Masashi Yuki?
[03:34] C2
    You're here to watch the final?
[03:40] C2
    Which high school are you attending?
[03:43] C2
    A lot of people were wondering
[03:45] C2
    where Kokubun Senior's cleanup was going.
[03:48] C2
    I'm going to...
[03:52] C2
    Hey!
[03:54] C2
    Koshu Okumura and Takuma Seto
    from Daikyo Senior!
[04:01] C3
    It's Yuki.
[04:03] C3
    He's here, too?
[04:07] C2
    Never thought I'd see
    more famous people here!
[04:10] C2
    Which high schools are you two attending?
[04:12] C2
    Have you decided?
[04:14] C3
    Who was he again?
[04:16] C3
    Koshu and I are going to Seido.
[04:18] C2
    Cool.
[04:20] C3
    Yuki, where are you going?
[04:25] (Flashback) C4
    What I really wanted to know
[04:28] (Flashback) C4
    was if this school could
    prepare me to go pro.
[04:36] C4
    I'm going to Seido, too.
[04:41] C2
    Seriously?
[04:43] C2
    I'm going to...
SIGN    The hit goes into right and center!
SIGN    Akiba leads off with a double!
SIGN    Are the batters stepping up after seeing Todoroki pitch?
SIGN    It's one out with a runner on second!
[04:59] Y1
    I can't pop it up.
[05:01] Y1
    I have to send it to the right.
[05:12] Um
    Out!
SIGN    Two outs, but there's a runner on third!
SIGN    The stage is set for the heart of the lineup.
[05:21] Ra
    I want to hit now.
[05:23] Ra
    Right now!
[05:26] Mi
    I want to end it here,
    before Todoroki's turn.
[05:30] Mi
    Let's go all out, Nori.
[05:34] Mi
    I'll take back the runs I conceded.
[05:37] Mi
    That's the kind of man I am.
[05:52] Mi
    This pitcher...
[05:56] Mi
    He's not giving me anything easy.
SIGN    It was a large fly, but Shirasu in right field caught it easily!
SIGN    That's the third out, and Yakushi goes down without a run.
[06:11] Ku
    Nice pitch!
[06:13] Ma
    Nice, Nori!
[06:14] Mi
    The control's good,
    but you can pitch a bit lower.
[06:17] C1
    Nice!
[06:18] C2
    Nice pitch, Kawakami!
[06:19] C3
    You shut them down!
[06:22] R1
    They managed to retire the side
    right before Todoroki-kun.
[06:25] R2
    Emptying the bases before
    a slugger is pretty basic strategy.
[06:30] R2
    Kawakami-kun's doing a great job
    against the Yakushi batters.
[06:36] Sa
    Nori-senpai!
[06:39] Sa
    Here!
[06:39] Fu
    Here!
[06:48] Y1
    Raichi, your glove!
[06:50] Y2
    Leave your bat and helmet!
SIGN    Seido Yakushi
[06:55] Y1
    One out!
[06:57] Y1
    One out!
SIGN    Top of the fourth, one out.
SIGN    The eighth batter and pitcher, Kawakami, is up!
[07:15] Is
    Hey! He's fighting hard.
[07:17] Ry
    He's keeping up with the crazy balls.
[07:19] Sa
    Nori-senpai, keep it up!
[07:22] Ka
    He only pitches fastballs.
[07:25] Ka
    I can't lose to that.
[07:42] Is
    That almost hit his head!
[07:44] C1
    That was close!
[07:45] C2
    He was getting ready to swing!
[07:47] S1
    You okay, Kawakami?
[07:49] Ka
    This is the pitch of a first-year?
SIGN    Sorry!
[07:55] Sa
    Watch it! Damn it!
[08:10] Um
    Ball!
SIGN    It's a little wide! The count's 2-2 now!
[08:14] C1
    Wow! The pitch was fast.
[08:22] Ka
    That's right.
[08:24] Ka
    There are plenty of amazing players.
[08:28] Ka
    Nothing's ever fair in sports.
[08:31] Ka
    No matter how hard you train,
[08:35] Ka
    some things will still be impossible.
[08:38] (Flashback) Ka
    Come on, pitcher!
[08:40] (Flashback) Ka
    Let's go!
[08:42] Ka
    I didn't have talent.
[08:44] Ka
    I knew that long ago.
[08:48] Ka
    But I couldn't give up.
[08:52] Ka
    I had nothing special,
    so I had to be creative.
[08:57] (Flashback) R1
    Nori, that sidearm looks cool.
[09:00] (Flashback) R2
    Who's that?
[09:01] (Flashback) R3
    That's Kawakami, a second-year.
[09:03] (Flashback) R1
    I think you have it down.
[09:05] (Flashback) R4
    Can you throw any breaking balls?
[09:07] Ka
    I couldn't sit out and watch.
[09:09] Ka
    I wanted to be on this side.
[09:13] Ka
    I wanted to fight on the field.
[09:17] Mi
    Nori.
[09:19] Sa
    Nori-senpai.
[09:24] Ra
    No matter if he's pitching or batting,
[09:28] Ra
    he gives me everything.
[09:32] Ra
    I'll give you everything, too!
[09:35] YC
    There isn't much you can do, Raichi.
[09:39] YC
    Throw it down the middle.
[09:40] YC
    As fast as you can.
[09:43] YC
    With your speed,
[09:46] YC
    the ball will move to the sides on its own.
[09:49] Ra
    I have to be sharper.
[09:51] Ra
    Quicker.
[09:53] Ra
    Like when I swing the bat.
[09:55] Ra
    Quicker!
[09:57] Ra
    Faster!
SIGN    It's a grounder straight to the pitcher.
SIGN    That's the second out.
[10:12] Y1
    Nice pitch, Raichi!
[10:14] Mi
    You won't get lucky forever, so watch out!
[10:17] Sa
    Nori-senpai, nice try!
[10:19] Sa
    Let it all wash away by having a drink!
[10:22] S1
    You okay?
[10:26] Ka
    It's a little numb.
[10:27] S1
    That's your right hand. You okay?
[10:30] S2
    How powerful is his pitch?
[10:32] Ma
    It breaks inward, too, so it's a doozy.
[10:35] Mi
    For lefties, too.
[10:38] Sa
    It breaks in both directions?
[10:40] Sa
    How is that possible?
[10:41] Sh
    The pitch goes crazy
    right as it reaches the plate.
[10:47] Sh
    He probably doesn't
    check his grip every time.
[10:51] Ha
    So it's like Eijun-kun's.
[10:54] Sh
    No.
[10:56] Sh
    It's faster, so it might be more
    troublesome than Sawamura's.
SIGN    S-Strike out!
SIGN    He cleans up three for three, once again!
[11:19] Sa
    Raichi, what's going on?
[11:21] Sa
    You're on a roll today!
[11:24] Mi
    What a miraculous day.
[11:26] Ka
    Kawakami.
[11:27] Ka
    Is your hand okay?
[11:30] Ka
    The first batter is Todoroki.
[11:32] Ka
    He's on a roll from pitching, so be careful.
[11:38] Y1
    Wow!
[11:40] Y1
    Todoroki's pitch looks mega awesome!
[11:42] I1
    His pitch is something else.
[11:45] Ca
    It has its own style.
[11:47] Ca
    It's, like, barbaric.
[11:48] Na
    It's obvious he's just winging it.
[11:51] Na
    He'll crumble soon enough.
[11:54] Sa
    I can't just sit and watch.
[11:56] Sa
    Ono-senpai!
[11:57] Sa
    Let's hit the bullpen!
[11:59] On
    You're very easily influenced.
[12:01] Sa
    I know!
SIGN    Seido Yakushi
[12:04] C1
    He went three for three again.
[12:07] C1
    This game might turn around.
[12:10] C1
    By the way, who was that guy?
[12:13] C1
    How did I forget someone as tall as him?
[12:19] C2
    Shinji Akamatsu from Ritsurin Junior High.
[12:23] C1
    Akamatsu?
[12:25] C1
    The ace pitcher from Minamisawa Senior?
[12:28] C1
    He went through a huge growth spurt!
[12:31] C1
    I didn't recognize him at all.
[12:33] C1
    I'm surprised you did.
[12:37] (Flashback) C3
    Seriously?
[12:40] (Flashback) C3
    I'm going to Inashiro.
[12:42] (Flashback) C3
    We'll be rivals in the same district.
[12:46] (Flashback) C3
    I'm looking forward to playing Seido.
[12:53] C3
    Tadano-senpai, long time no see.
[12:56] Ta
    You got taller again, Shinji.
[12:59] C3
    Yeah.
[13:00] C3
    I couldn't pitch much this year
    due to growing pains.
[13:04] C3
    I'm looking forward to playing
    baseball with you again.
[13:07] Ta
    Me, too.
[13:08] C3
    You have a lot of luggage.
[13:10] C3
    Should I hold some?
[13:12] Ta
    N-No, it's fine.
[13:14] Ta
    This is a punishment.
[13:16] C3
    I saw the summer nationals, Narumiya-san.
[13:20] C3
    I'm so excited to play
    with a pitcher I respect.
[13:29] Na
    You're a well-mannered boy.
[13:31] C3
    Thank you, sir!
[13:33] Na
    What's your name?
[13:34] C3
    Akamatsu!
[13:35] C3
    Shinji Akamatsu!
[13:41] Mi
    Even lower.
[13:43] Mi
    He's gonna take it
    if it goes a little high.
SIGN    Bottom of the fourth, Yakushi is up to bat.
SIGN    Batting fourth and pitcher, Todoroki-kun.
SIGN    Todoroki, the cleanup, is leading off this inning.
SIGN    He's showing great potential as a pitcher.
SIGN    Can he also blow us away from the batter's box where he belongs?
[14:09] Mi
    We get to face him
    with no runners on base.
[14:13] Mi
    Let's go aggressive, Nori.
SIGN    Bottom of the fourth, Yakushi is behind by two runs,
SIGN    but their cleanup, Raichi Todoroki, is up to bat.
[14:27] Y1
    Yeah, let's go!
[14:29] Y2
    Raichi!
[14:30] Mi
    Right here!
[14:32] C1
    Woo!
[14:33] C2
    Crazy!
[14:34] C3
    Todoroki!
[14:35] C4
    Get it, Raichi!
[14:37] Is
    The crowd's going wild for him.
[14:40] Ry
    This game's starting to revolve around him.
[14:42] C1
    Show us a big one!
[14:44] C2
    Come on, Raichi!
[14:45] Sa
    No!
[14:46] Sa
    This is Nori-senpai's turn!
[14:48] YC
    Let's get a run soon, Raichi.
[14:52] Mi
    There are no runners on base,
[14:54] Mi
    so we can be aggressive.
[14:58] Mi
    I wonder if we got him
    thinking about the sinker.
[15:03] Mi
    First pitch.
[15:07] Mi
    Way to the inside.
[15:12] Is
    That's the spirit!
[15:15] Is
    Payback time!
[15:16] Ry
    So close.
[15:23] Ra
    Now we're even.
[15:25] Ra
    Friends?
[15:29] Mi
    It got caught on his fingers.
[15:31] Mi
    Don't be so tense, Nori.
[15:37] Sa
    Like a squirrel!
[15:39] Mi
    A slider into the inside.
[15:42] Mi
    Lower than the one he hit last time.
[15:46] Ka
    Powerful and precise.
[15:50] Ka
    Against this batter,
[15:52] Ka
    I need perfect control.
SIGN    Ball two!
[16:00] Is
    He's so tense!
[16:01] Ry
    The bases are empty.
[16:03] Ta
    They're being really careful.
[16:06] Na
    Overly cautious.
[16:07] Na
    He's so scared.
[16:12] Mi
    Traditionally, it's bad
    to walk the first batter.
[16:17] Mi
    However, this batter's different.
[16:21] Mi
    Don't be afraid of balls
    and pitch aggressively.
[16:25] Mi
    Give me a strong one, even if it's a ball.
[16:31] Um
    It's a strike way to the outside!
[16:34] Ma
    Nice one!
[16:35] Ma
    That's it, Nori!
[16:36] Ku
    We've got your back.
[16:38] Mi
    Yes. His shoulder's relaxed.
[16:40] Mi
    Let's do this.
[16:47] (Flashback) Ka
    I'm thinking about throwing sinkers again.
[16:51] (Flashback) Ka
    With the first-year pitchers
     getting better so quickly,
[16:55] (Flashback) Ka
    I have to do something to keep up.
[16:59] Mi
    Everyone knows you always push yourself.
[17:04] Ma
    Let's go, Nori!
[17:06] Ku
    Stay strong!
[17:07] Sh
    Aggressive!
[17:10] Mi
    Let's go!
[17:13] Mi
    The same place as the last strike...
[17:17] Mi
    ...but a sinker!
[17:20] Ra
    A battle of wills!
[17:24] Ra
    That's what it's about!
[17:26] Ra
    I want to fight...
[17:28] Ra
    ...as many...
[17:30] Ra
    ...many...
[17:32] Ra
    ...times as I can!
[17:38] S1
    Seriously?
SIGN    I-It's gone!
SIGN    Todoroki hits a home run into the left-field stands.
[17:52] Sa
    Nori-senpai.
[17:55] Mi
    That wasn't even close to what I asked.
[17:58] Mi
    Nori, could it be...
SIGN    Seido
    
    Yakushi
SIGN    Yakushi's long-awaited run comes from their cleanup!
[18:07] Y1
    Raichi, you did it!
[18:09] Y2
    You did it again!
[18:11] C1
    Wow! This Todoroki's unreal!
[18:14] C2
    Todoroki-kun's amazing!
[18:17] Ta
    A liner into the left-field stands.
[18:19] Ta
    So that's Todoroki-kun's—
[18:20] Na
    Shut up.
[18:22] Na
    That was a bad pitch.
[18:25] Na
    What a fast hit into the stands.
[18:28] Na
    I've never seen one, even at nationals.
SIGN    Batting fifth and first baseman, Sanada-kun.
[18:36] Sa
    Let's not stop here.
[18:40] Mi
    He doesn't seem too blue
    about the home run.
[18:46] YC
    That was a sinker, wasn't it?
[18:49] YC
    It hardly broke.
[18:52] YC
    Are you brave enough to try again?
[18:56] Mi
    He went after the slider last time.
[19:00] Mi
    Let's see what he does
    with an outside pitch.
[19:04] Sa
    I'm not good at hitting difficult pitches.
[19:10] Sa
    I'll just smack the easy strikes!
SIGN    A hit off the first pitch!
[19:18] Mi
    It was high again.
[19:20] Y1
    Wow! So close!
[19:22] Y1
    He caught up!
[19:23] Mi
    It would've been a double
    if it had gone through.
[19:26] YC
    How much do they practice? Damn it!
SIGN    A runner on first with no outs!
SIGN    Can Yakushi tie the game this inning?
[19:35] C1
    Will they bunt?
[19:37] C2
    From this team, I doubt it.
SIGN    Batting sixth and right fielder, Hirahata-kun.
[19:43] YC
    We've got momentum right now.
[19:45] YC
    No need to give them a free out.
[19:49] Mi
    The runner's not taking a big lead.
[19:52] Mi
    Let's focus on the batter, Nori.
SIGN    The first pitch is a ball.
[20:01] Y1
    Okay, nice!
[20:02] Y2
    Good eye!
[20:05] Mi
    I was hoping he'd call that a strike.
SIGN    The second pitch, too!
[20:18] C1
    Two balls already.
[20:21] R1
    What's going on with Kawakami-kun?
[20:24] R1
    He was pitching good strikes last inning.
[20:32] S1
    Don't tell me he...
[20:41] Y1
    Ball two.
[20:43] Y1
    Don't swing at difficult pitches.
[20:46] Y1
    Swing the easy strikes.
SIGN    And that makes it three balls!
[20:51] C1
    Where are the strikes?
[20:53] C2
    Come on, Kawakami!
[20:56] YC
    You're so observant.
[20:59] YC
    You know the situation
[21:03] YC
    and your job very well, Captain.
[21:07] Mi
    You've got this.
[21:08] Mi
    Your pitch has power, Nori.
[21:14] Um
    Strike!
[21:18] Y1
    He can pitch a breaking ball here?
[21:21] Ma
    Nice pitch, Nori!
[21:23] Ma
    Nothing to worry about!
[21:24] Ma
    Go all out!
[21:26] Sh
    We've got your back!
[21:28] Ku
    This is what I'm talking about!
[21:30] Sa
    That's the way, Nori-senpai!
[21:32] (Flashback) SS
    We're here for you!
[21:38] Ka
    Furuya can only pitch one inning.
SIGN    Seido Yakushi
[21:45] Ka
    It's the fourth inning.
[21:49] Ka
    It's too soon...
[21:52] Ka
    ...to walk off now.
[23:30] Mi
    Nori is suddenly unable to pitch strikes,
[23:33] Mi
    but Yakushi batters aren't going easy.
[23:35] Ka
    Don't give up.
[23:36] Ka
    I know I can do this.
[23:39] Ka
    I can keep going.
[23:40] Mi
    Nori, don't tell me you're...
[23:42] Sa
    The whole team's putting
    everything into this game.
[23:45] Sa
