[00:00] Ka
    I have one more thing to say.
[00:04] Ka
    You are your own worst enemy.
[00:09] Ka
    The quickest way to win
    is to play like you practice.
[00:14] Ka
    Did anyone quit during
    the summer off-season training?
[00:18] Ka
    No.
[00:19] Ka
    You guys practiced just as hard
    as the third-years did.
[00:23] Ka
    No matter what, never give up.
[00:27] Ka
    Have pride in the sweat you've dropped.
SIGN    National Champions
[00:32] Ka
    I have faith in you.
[00:35] Mi
    It was like he was speaking
    his final words.
[00:40] Ka
    Do the best you can tomorrow.
[00:44] Mi
    Words to push each and
    every one of us forward.
[00:49] Mi
    You're not quitting.
[00:52] Mi
    We have reasons why we can't lose.
[00:57] Ka
    Meeting adjourned.
[01:01] SS
    We have to take him to nationals.
SIGN    The Cold Rain
[02:40] R1
    This is only the first round.
[02:43] R1
    Why are there so many people
    out here in this rain?
[02:47] R2
    It's not surprising.
[02:49] R2
    It's a game you can't watch
    in the summer tournament.
[02:53] R2
    Top teams from the east
    and west are playing.
[02:56] TT
    Let's go, Teito! Let's go, Teito!
[02:59] TT
    Go! Go! Let's go! Let's go, Teito!
[03:03] TT
    Let's go, Teito! Let's go, Teito!
SIGN    Teito Seido
[03:06] TT
    Go! Go! Let's go! Let's go, Teito!
[03:07] R1
    Top of the first,
[03:08] R1
    two outs and a runner on second
    after a walk and a bunt.
[03:11] R1
    Inui-kun, the cleanup, is up at bat.
[03:14] R2
    Furuya-kun has a weak early game,
[03:17] R2
    so I'm sure Teito wants
    to take advantage of that.
[03:44] Mi
    Left!
[03:48] S1
    Awesome!
[03:49] S2
    Nice pitch, Furuya!
[03:51] R1
    He overpowered Inui-kun.
[03:54] R2
    Yeah. He only pitched fastballs.
[03:56] R2
    He must be feeling pretty good.
[03:58] R1
    His early game
[04:00] R1
    seems to have improved,
    considering he overpowered the cleanup.
[04:04] Mi
    That flew pretty far.
[04:07] Sa
    They're not fazed by
    Furuya's pitch at all!
[04:09] Sa
    It's only a matter of time!
[04:12] Ta
    How was it?
[04:15] In
    It felt like lead.
[04:19] In
    When I stood in the box
    and experienced the pitch,
[04:23] In
    I thought I was struck by lightning!
[04:26] Ta
    You got struck by lightning again?
[04:29] TC
    Kengo, Taiyo!
[04:32] TC
    That kid's a monster.
[04:34] TC
    If he gets going,
[04:37] TC
    he'll have the entire crowd on his side!
[04:42] Ta
    You two give him way too much credit.
[04:45] TC
    Don't give him the upper hand!
[04:47] TC
    Show him up, Taiyo!
[04:49] TC
    Show the greenhorns what you're made of!
[04:55] Ka
    Wait for the pitch,
    then hit toward the right.
[04:59] Ka
    Don't expect many freebies from him.
[05:01] Ka
    So don't swing at whatever
    comes your way until you're cornered.
[05:06] Ka
    On your first at-bat,
[05:08] Ka
    be bold and ignore the low pitches.
[05:15] R2
    He's a first-year like Furuya-kun,
    but he's been to nationals.
[05:19] R2
    After pitching at nationals,
    how has he grown?
[05:30] Um
    Strike!
[05:35] Ku
    He has good control.
[05:43] Ku
    That was close, stupid!
[05:46] Ta
    My bad.
[05:51] Um
    Strike!
[05:54] Ku
    Wow! That's far.
[05:57] R2
    From in-low to in-high,
    and then out-low.
[06:02] R2
    With the ball going to so many corners,
[06:04] R2
    the strike zone must
    seem bigger than usual.
[06:12] Ku
    The out-low corner.
[06:17] Ku
    A screwball?
[06:19] Um
    Strike!
[06:21] Um
    Batter out!
[06:22] R1
    He couldn't help swinging at that one.
[06:25] R2
    Yeah.
[06:26] R2
    But I'm sure Seido has a plan
    against his low breaking balls.
[06:30] Ku
    His screwball drops quite a bit.
[06:33] Ta
    You knew it in your head,
    but your body just reacted.
[06:37] Ta
    Right?
[06:38] Ta
    I love having that control over you.
[06:42] SS
    Let's get a big one, Furuya! Let's go!
SIGN    Teito Seido
[06:47] S1
    Come on, Furuya!
[06:49] S2
    You've got this!
[06:59] Um
    Strike! Batter out!
[07:03] In
    Two outs!
[07:05] Fu
    I thought that was a ball.
[07:10] S1
    Isn't the umpire a little
    lenient with the low balls?
[07:16] Mi
    The mitt doesn't move,
    and the ball sounds dry on the mitt.
[07:21] Mi
    It's not just about Mukai's control.
[07:24] Mi
    That catcher's really good at catching.
[07:31] (Flashback) TC
    Kengo, that Mukai's got
    an impressive pitch.
[07:37] (Flashback) TC
    He's fresh out of junior high, but he's smart.
[07:40] (Flashback) TC
    He knows to pitch
    where batters hate the most.
[07:43] (Flashback) TC
    Though he's a little bit narcissistic.
[07:48] (Flashback) TC
    He's very good at using the corners,
[07:51] (Flashback) TC
    but if the catcher sucks at catching,
[07:54] (Flashback) TC
    he'll never make it big.
[07:58] (Flashback) TC
    Whether or not he makes it
[08:01] (Flashback) TC
    is all on you, Kengo.
SIGN    ° This practice method isn't for everyone.
[08:12] Um
    Strike two!
[08:18] In
    Nice pitch!
[08:19] R1
    He's only pitching low.
[08:23] R2
    Yeah.
[08:24] R2
    I'm sure Seido's waiting
    for an easy pitch,
[08:28] R2
    but they're not getting it.
[08:31] R2
    The batters put up a good fight,
[08:33] R2
    but they all get jammed
    on a tricky pitch.
[08:39] Um
    Out!
[08:40] Um
    Three outs! Change!
[08:43] T1
    Nice pitch, Taiyo!
[08:45] T2
    Keep 'em coming!
[08:47] R2
    Mukai-kun's use of the corners is superb,
[08:51] R2
    and their fielders look impenetrable.
[08:54] R2
    It won't be easy to take out Teito.
SIGN    Top of the 3rd
[09:10] Ta
    Ow.
[09:14] Mi
    One out!
[09:16] R1
    Furuya-kun overpowers
    the batters, unlike Mukai-kun.
[09:20] R2
    Yeah.
[09:21] R2
    I don't think he's thrown
    any breaking balls yet.
[09:24] R2
    Miyuki-kun's making
    very aggressive calls today.
[09:34] T1
    Let's go!
[09:35] TT
    Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Kaji!
[09:38] C1
    Ohh.
[09:39] C1
    Teito's second hit today.
[09:41] C2
    That pitcher's pretty tough.
[09:44] C1
    They used a bunt in the first inning.
[09:47] C2
    You think they'll do something
    during their second at-bats?
[09:51] TT
    Let's go, Teito! Let's go, Teito!
[09:54] TT
    Go! Go! Let's go! Let's go, Teito!
[09:57] (Flashback) Mi
    Teito isn't a team you can
    take down with tricky plays.
[10:01] (Flashback) Mi
    You just need to focus
    on the batter at all times.
[10:05] Mi
    On top that, it's raining.
[10:07] Mi
    I don't want Furuya to think.
[10:11] Mi
    Overpower him with your pitch.
[10:17] R1
    They're aggressive, even with a runner.
[10:20] R2
    Yeah.
[10:21] R2
    They're prioritizing
    the batter over the runner.
[10:25] R2
    The battery looks confident in their plays.
[10:35] R1
    A steal!
[10:37] R2
    No, a hit and run.
[10:42] T1
    He missed!
[10:43] Mi
    Focus on the batter.
[10:46] ---
    Out!
[10:51] Mi
    I'll take care of the runner.
SIGN    Teito Seido
[10:57] C1
    I thought it was going
    to clear up after lunch.
[11:00] C1
    So much for that forecast.
[11:03] C2
    What a shame.
SIGN    Top of the 4th
[11:10] S1
    Two outs!
[11:12] Ku
    Two outs!
[11:14] Ma
    We've got your back!
[11:30] Um
    Strike!
[11:31] Um
    Batter out!
[11:33] Ha
    Nice pitch, Furuya-kun!
[11:35] Ha
    You held them off again!
[11:37] M1
    Way to go, monster!
[11:39] S1
    Nice pitch, Furuya!
[11:41] S2
    Keep it up, Furuya!
[11:44] Fu
    I want to change my undershirt.
[11:47] Ta
    So forceful and unelegant.
[11:51] C1
    I came to see Mukai-san,
    but that guy's good, too.
[11:55] C1
    He's the polar opposite of Mukai-san.
[11:58] C1
    This is a great pitchers' game.
[12:02] C1
    Koshu, whose pitch
    do you want to catch?
[12:12] C2
    Wow! That defense!
[12:14] C3
    Did you see how fast he threw
    that after he caught it?
[12:18] C2
    Seido doesn't have a hit yet.
[12:32] Sa
    Right to the fielder!
[12:34] Sa
    It must be karma!
[12:36] Ha
    For what?!
[12:39] R1
    The hits are starting to fly.
[12:42] R2
    They hit the corner pitches,
    so the balls only fly to the fielders.
[12:47] Ma
    Wait for the ball,
    then smack it head on.
[12:53] Um
    Strike!
[12:54] Um
    Batter out!
[12:55] Ta
    What a scary swing.
[13:00] Ta
    If only you could hit the ball.
[13:04] Oc
    Why is he back in the three-hole?
[13:08] Oc
    I'd take him out of the lineup.
[13:11] Ka
    Switch gears.
[13:13] Ka
    We just have to be persistent
    until we get the pitch we want.
[13:18] Ma
    Yes, sir!
SIGN    Top of the 5th
[13:23] TT
    Let's go, Teito! Let's go, Teito!
[13:26] TT
    Go! Go! Let's go! Let's go, Teito!
[13:30] TT
    Let's go, Teito! Let's go, Teito!
[13:32] R1
    The rain is getting stronger again.
[13:33] TT
    Go! Go! Let's go! Let's go, Teito!
[13:35] R2
    Yeah.
[13:36] Fu
    I only just changed my undershirt.
[13:39] Mi
    Furuya!
[13:41] Mi
    Swing your arm all the way!
[13:43] Fu
    How many undershirts did I bring?
[13:47] Mi
    Are you listening?
[13:48] C1
    How many innings are required
    to validate the game?
[13:50] C2
    Seven in the rain.
[13:53] C3
    If the rain gets any stronger,
    maybe they'll stop the game.
[13:57] Sa
    Damn this rain!
[14:00] S1
    Didn't you say you
    could call out the sun?
[14:03] Sa
    I hate this weather!
[14:09] C1
    A bunt!
[14:12] S1
    Right on the line.
[14:14] S1
    Will it cross?
[14:17] S1
    It stopped 'cause of the rain!
[14:19] C1
    He made it to first!
[14:21] C2
    Teito has a runner with no outs!
[14:28] Fu
    Damn.
[14:30] Fu
    The rosin bag doesn't help at all.
[14:34] Ha
    The rain seems to get stronger...
[14:37] Ku
    ...only when we're defending.
[14:40] Ma
    I need to grip tight when I throw,
[14:42] Ma
    or the ball might fly out.
[14:45] Mi
    We're all playing under
    the same conditions.
[14:48] Mi
    Focus.
[14:49] Mi
    If you lose focus, they'll punish you.
[14:51] Mi
    Stay focused!
[14:59] Um
    Ball four!
[15:07] Ot
    The rain's getting stronger.
[15:10] Mi
    The ball's starting to rise.
[15:13] Mi
    Can we get a new rosin bag?
[15:14] TC
    Sorry, kiddos.
[15:16] TC
    Looks like the weather's on our side.
[15:23] Fu
    Damn!
[15:25] Fu
    Dumb rain.
[15:29] [SONG] On-screen
    Edogawa City Baseball Stadium
[15:39] Um
    Ball two!
[15:41] R1
    Is that a breaking ball?
[15:43] R2
    No, it's a fastball.
[15:46] R2
    The rain's making it
    hard to grip the ball.
[15:51] Mi
    Does the rain bother you?
[15:53] Mi
    But you threw that one
    into the ground,
[15:56] Mi
    so the ball wouldn't rise, right?
[15:58] Fu
    Yes.
[15:59] Fu
    I didn't want the ball to fly out.
[16:02] Fu
    That's good.
SIGN    Teito Seido
[16:05] Mi
    I can't do anything if it goes over my head,
[16:09] Mi
    but if it bounces, I'll catch it.
[16:13] Mi
    Stay aggressive.
[16:17] C1
    They're not pausing the game with this rain?
[16:20] C2
    No outs and runners on first and second.
[16:23] C2
    Teito really wants to get
    a runner on third here.
[16:28] C2
    Maybe a passed ball, even.
[16:35] Ta
    Ball two.
[16:36] Ta
    I'll just go if it comes down the middle.
[16:40] Ma
    One at a time!
[16:41] Ku
    We've got your back!
[16:43] Ma
    Let's get one out first!
[16:51] Mi
    Let's do this.
[16:59] Ta
    Is that too strong?
[17:01] Mi
    Third!
[17:05] Um
    Out!
[17:09] S1
    Nice out at third!
[17:11] S2
    That's how we do it!
[17:13] S1
    Furuya! Nice fielding!
[17:16] TC
    It's too bad we couldn't get to third,
[17:19] TC
    but that's that.
[17:22] TC
    Kajiyama, he hasn't thrown
    any breaking balls yet.
[17:27] TC
    They're all fastballs.
[17:30] TC
    Let's go big!
[17:37] TC
    A splitter?
[17:40] TC
    Are they not afraid
    of a passed ball?
[17:45] Mi
    If you let it bounce,
    I'll catch it.
[17:49] Mi
    Be aggressive.
[17:58] Ot
    Two outs!
[18:19] Fu
    The rain is not the enemy.
[18:22] Fu
    I am.
[18:37] S1
    Yeah! Strikeout!
[18:40] S2
    He held them off from no outs
    and runners on first and second?
[18:43] S2
    That last out was incredible!
[18:50] TC
    Th...
[18:51] TC
    This kid...
[18:57] C1
    Wow!
[18:59] Ka
    Nice pitch, Furuya!
[19:01] S1
    I got goosebumps, dude!
[19:03] Ka
    Good focus.
[19:05] Ka
    Good fight.
[19:11] Ka
    All right, let's go this inning!
[19:15] Mi
    Let's put some pressure
    on them this inning.
SIGN    Due to the heavy rain, we have paused the game.
SIGN    Thank you for your patience.
[19:39] T1
    Seriously? Can I borrow that DVD?
[19:43] T2
    Sorry. Mine's on Blu-ray.
[19:45] T1
    Are you serious?
[19:47] T1
    What am I supposed to do with all my DVDs?
[19:50] T2
    I don't know.
[19:53] R1
    This is a long pause.
[19:55] R2
    With the field in such bad condition,
[19:58] R2
    they can't resume the game so quickly.
[20:01] R2
    But it would be a pain
    to reschedule the game, too.
[20:07] R2
    Both pitchers are putting up a good fight.
[20:11] R2
    How will this pause affect them?
[20:18] Sa
    Let's go!
[20:20] S1
    Sawamura, let's go back to the dugout—
[20:22] Sa
    Not yet!
[20:24] Sa
    Thank you!
[20:25] T1
    That guy's pitching during the pause.
[20:28] T2
    We don't even know
    when the rain will clear up.
[20:31] T2
    What an idiot, huh, Mukai?
[20:34] Ta
    Yeah.
[20:36] Ta
    I didn't mind continuing the game.
[20:40] S1
    Sawamura, you're still pitching?
[20:43] S1
    Everyone's looking at you.
[20:45] S1
    You're so good at selling yourself.
[20:48] S1
    I should learn from you.
[20:49] Sa
    I'm not trying to sell myself!
[20:54] Sa
    I just can't sit around doing nothing!
[21:01] Sa
    Damn.
[21:03] Sa
    He stepped it up another notch.
[21:09] Ka
    Furuya's looking really good today.
[21:12] Ka
    After the rain got heavier,
    he was really shining.
SIGN    Zzzz
[21:16] Ka
    He's sleeping?
[21:19] Mi
    You're way too relaxed, stupid.
[21:22] Mi
    Can you get your focus back
    when we resume?
[21:25] Mi
    How many undershirts
    do you have left?
[21:28] Fu
    Just this and one more.
[21:31] Mi
    Then you can use mine.
[21:34] Mi
    We resume on the offense,
    so keep your shoulder warm.
[21:42] Mi
    That momentum...
[21:51] Mi
    To be frank, this was an unfavorable pause.
[23:30] Sa
    The rain's letting up,
    so we're back in the game.
[23:32] Sa
    But Furuya seems to be off his game.
[23:35] Fu
    Something's off.
[23:36] Fu
    We're in a pinch,
    but I can't get my spirits up.
[23:39] Sa
    Get ahold of yourself!
[23:40] Sa
    Remember one thing!
[23:41] Sa
    Run for your life when you're covering!
[23:43] Sa
    If your head's not in the game,
    then I'm going in!
[23:46] Sa
    Next time on Ace of the Diamond Season 2:
    Out of Order.
[23:50] Sa
    Let's win the national title!
