SIGN    Seido Inashiro
SIGN    Top of the seventh, and Seido's up to bat.
SIGN    Batting fourth, first baseman, Yuki-kun.
[00:13] R2
    Seido just defended a bases-loaded inning.
[00:16] R2
    This is the perfect time to change the tide.
SIGN    He hits a slider into foul territory!
SIGN    The count is 2-2.
SIGN    Yuki's being persistent here.
[00:30] (Flashback) IC
    Harada.
[00:33] (Flashback) IC
    Yes, sir.
[00:36] (Flashback) IC
    This is an important inning.
[00:39] (Flashback) IC
    Don't give them a fighting chance.
SIGN    And here comes the seventh pitch!
SIGN    He hits the fastball!
[00:55] Sa
    Let's go!
SIGN    Center fielder is running!
SIGN    It's big!
SIGN    Is it going?
SIGN    Seido Inashiro
SIGN    Decision
SIGN    Center fielder is running!
SIGN    Is it going?
SIGN    He caught it!
SIGN    What a catch.
SIGN    Center fielder, Carlos Kamiya, with a heroic save!
SIGN    Inashiro is really giving Seido a hard time!
[02:52] R1
    Wow!
[02:53] R1
    That was a straight sprint
    to the drop point.
[02:57] R2
    Inashiro really has it in them
[03:00] R2
    if they can pull out plays
    like that at a time like this.
[03:03] R2
    It was the beacon of hope Seido needed,
[03:07] R2
    but it was caught perfectly.
[03:15] R2
    This could...
[03:17] R2
    This could mean...
[03:21] Um
    Strike! Batter out!
[03:25] C1
    Yeah, Mei!
[03:26] C2
    Nice pitch!
[03:30] Ca
    Nice pitch.
[03:31] Na
    Yeah, thanks!
[03:32] Na
    You're right up there with God and Buddha!
[03:36] Mi
    Damn! They got us.
[03:39] Mi
    They used so many change-ups last inning,
[03:42] Mi
    but they didn't use a
    single one in this inning.
[03:46] Ha
    Two more innings.
[03:48] Ha
    If we can keep them thinking, then...
[04:00] Sa
    It's not over yet!
[04:01] Sa
    Not even close to being over!
[04:02] Sa
    The game's just getting started!
[04:06] Sa
    Let's keep on fighting!
[04:07] Ry
    We're right here.
[04:08] Ku
    Don't yell in our ears!
[04:11] Is
    You little!
[04:12] Is
    We'll take the game back, so just shut up!
[04:14] Sa
    Yes, sir.
[04:15] Sa
    I've never doubted you for a second.
[04:19] Is
    Damn.
[04:20] Is
    Did we really look that blue?
[04:24] Is
    Let's go!
[04:25] Yu
    Let's do this!
SIGN    Seido Inashiro
[04:33] C1
    Inashiro is up by two.
[04:35] C1
    Seido has two more chances at offense.
[04:38] C1
    I'm sure they're starting to lose hope.
[04:41] C1
    I remember thinking
    we'd never hit Narumiya's pitches.
[04:45] C2
    Any more runs could end the game.
[04:49] C2
    There's a lot of pressure on the pitcher.
SIGN    Bottom of the seventh, Inashiro is up to bat.
SIGN    Batting first, center fielder, Kamiya-kun.
[05:00] C1
    Is he an exchange student, too?
[05:02] C2
    No, he's Japanese.
[05:05] C3
    Who cares?
[05:07] C3
    You should watch this one carefully.
[05:09] C1
    Hm?
[05:10] C3
    Inashiro wants another run,
[05:12] C3
    but Seido has their backs against the wall.
[05:15] C3
    This is when both teams go all out.
[05:20] C4
    I came all the way here to watch.
[05:23] C4
    You'd better not let it end like this.
[05:39] R1
    Thank you for waiting.
[05:41] R1
    It's very hot today,
    so don't forget to drink water.
[05:45] Wa
    Okay.
[05:46] Wa
    Thank you.
[05:50] Wa
    Wow!
[05:52] Wa
    Amazing.
[05:53] Wa
    There are more people now.
[05:56] Wa
    If Eijun came out to play,
[05:58] Wa
    I'd probably be too nervous to watch.
[06:02] CC
    Is he okay?
[06:09] Yu
    Tanba!
[06:12] Sa
    Tanba-san!
[06:13] Mi
    Excuse me! Time out!
[06:17] Wa
    What happened?
[06:19] C1
    He went to pick up a bunt, and then that.
[06:26] 31
    No way.
[06:27] 31
    You've gotta be kidding.
[06:34] C1
    His leg?
[06:41] I1
    It doesn't look like he pulled a muscle.
[06:44] I2
    It's probably just a cramp.
[06:51] Ka
    How are you?
[06:53] Ta
    I'm fine.
[06:55] Ta
    I can do this.
[07:08] C1
    Looks like it wasn't serious.
[07:11] C1
    It must be from the pressure and the heat.
[07:16] C2
    This is terrible for Seido.
[07:19] C2
    It only makes things harder
    than they already were.
[07:22] C2
    If this happens again,
    the umpire might force him to go out.
[07:28] Ry
    Just take your time and pitch.
[07:30] Ry
    Who cares about a few complaints?
[07:33] Yu
    Stay calm, Tanba.
[07:35] Ku
    How about a mystery pitch?
[07:42] Re
    Furuya-kun pitches
    the first five innings,
[07:44] Re
    and Tanba-kun closes
    the rest of the game.
[07:47] Re
    This is the most ideal outcome
[07:50] Re
    in order to avoid the weaknesses
    of a pitcher's relay.
[07:56] Ot
    Is Tanba okay?
[08:01] Ot
    Coach!
SIGN    And we're back to the bottom of the seventh.
SIGN    Carlos got on base with a hit,
SIGN    and then a bunt put him on second.
SIGN    Next up is Inashiro's third batter.
[08:20] C1
    So he's staying.
[08:22] C2
    Is Tanba gonna be okay?
[08:28] 31
    Fight it!
[08:29] 31
    Don't get weak up there!
[08:31] Yu
    Let's do this!
[08:35] Is
    We've got your back, Tanba!
[08:37] Ka
    Sakai.
[08:39] Ka
    Kominato.
[08:41] Ka
    Go warm up right now.
[08:43] Ka
    Yes, sir.
[08:45] Ka
    Kadota.
[08:46] Ka
    Tell the two in the bullpen to get ready.
[08:49] S1
    Yes, sir.
[09:00] Um
    Ball!
SIGN    The count is 2-1.
[09:04] Ta
    I can't leave...
[09:06] Ta
    I can't leave the mound like this
[09:09] Ta
    and cause trouble for the team!
[09:12] Um
    Strike!
[09:13] Mi
    Nice pitch!
[09:15] Ka
    Nice pitch!
[09:16] Ma
    Tanba-san!
[09:18] Ta
    I'm...
[09:21] Ta
    I'm the ace...
[09:24] Ta
    ...on this team!
[09:31] Um
    Strike!
[09:36] Um
    Batter out!
[09:37] Ta
    Let's go!
[09:43] Is
    Yeah!
[09:45] Ry
    Nice pitch.
[09:47] Yu
    Way to go, Tanba!
[09:49] C1
    Two outs!
[09:50] C2
    Nice pitch!
[09:51] C3
    Tanba!
[09:53] Na
    Man, he's tough.
[09:56] Na
    Quite honestly, I didn't think
    he was this good of a pitcher.
SIGN    Batting fourth, catcher, Harada-kun.
[10:04] Na
    But he's at his limit.
[10:07] Na
    Put an end to him, Masa-san.
[10:20] Ta
    I'll stop him here.
[10:22] Ta
    No matter what!
[10:43] Um
    Foul!
[10:45] C1
    Aww... So close!
[10:47] C2
    Wow! That was close!
[10:50] Ma
    Damn.
[10:51] Ma
    It didn't curve as much.
[10:53] Ma
    Must be because I pulled it too much.
[10:57] Mi
    Tanba-san!
[11:05] CC
    Is his leg okay?
[11:18] Ot
    Tanba.
[11:21] Ot
    Coach, we should...
SIGN    Bottom of the seventh. Inashiro has a runner on second with two outs.
SIGN    Seido can't give up another run here.
SIGN    They need to do something!
[11:37] Um
    Ball!
[11:39] Um
    Ball!
SIGN    Wide again!
SIGN    The count is 3-1.
[11:58] Um
    Ball four!
SIGN    Looks like they've decided to walk the cleanup to face Narumiya, the fifth batter!
[12:10] Na
    So you're not worried about me?
[12:13] Mi
    Time out, please.
[12:31] C1
    Are they switching pitchers?
[12:32] C2
    Seido's taking their ace out?
[12:35] C3
    Well, he's not in great shape.
[12:38] C4
    But this is an important moment.
[12:40] C4
    If they mess this up, it's over for Seido.
[12:43] C5
    Who are they going to pick?
[12:46] C5
    Will they bring Kawakami out
    or put Furuya back on the mound?
SIGN    Seido High School is switching players.
SIGN    Replacing the pitcher, Tanba-kun...
SIGN    ...is Sawamura-kun.
SIGN    Replacing the pitcher, Tanba-kun...
SIGN    ...is Sawamura-kun.
[13:17] C1
    What?
[13:18] C1
    No way!
[13:19] C1
    That brat's coming out?
[13:21] C2
    It's leftie vs leftie.
[13:23] C2
    I wonder if he's there just for Narumiya.
[13:25] C3
    They have two runners on bases,
[13:27] C3
    and Furuya gave up a hit to Narumiya earlier.
[13:31] C4
    That loud one, right?
[13:34] C5
    They're bringing out a first-year southpaw?
[13:38] Na
    Is this a joke?
[13:39] Na
    Do they not fear me?
[13:41] 31
    Tanba didn't even last three innings.
[13:46] 32
    It must be tough for him
    to have to leave now.
[13:57] Ta
    Sawamura.
[14:02] Ta
    You're the ace now.
[14:05] Ta
    Pitch with confidence.
[14:12] Sa
    Tanba-san.
[14:15] Yu
    Tanba.
[14:26] Yu
    We won't let it end here.
[14:31] Yu
    We'll give you...
[14:32] Yu
    ...another chance.
[14:35] Yu
    We'll put you back on the mound again!
[14:44] Is
    We'll avenge you!
[14:55] Sa
    "We'll put Tanba-san
    back on the mound again."
[15:02] Sa
    So is he saying...
[15:04] Sa
    ...we'll take back this game?
[15:07] Sa
    That we'll be going to nationals?
[15:14] Sa
    Amazing!
[15:15] Sa
    Just amazing!
[15:18] Mi
    Hey, Sawamura.
[15:20] Mi
    I hope you know your job.
[15:24] Mi
    Your job isn't to pitch well.
[15:29] Mi
    It's to pitch with energy.
[15:35] Sa
    Yes, sir!
[15:36] Sa
    That's all I can do, anyway!
[15:38] Sa
    I'm still a hatchling, after all!
[15:41] Mi
    Good. You understand.
[15:54] Sa
    That was good!
[15:56] Ku
    Shut up when you're practicing!
[15:58] Sa
    Thank you for waiting,
    Sir Head Umpire!
[16:00] Sa
    Now, let's get this show back on the road!
[16:03] Um
    You don't need to make the calls.
[16:05] Sa
    Yes, sir!
[16:07] Ka
    That idiot! Is he nervous?
[16:09] Ka
    Oh, wait...
[16:10] Ma
    He's acting like himself.
[16:12] Ot
    Hey!
[16:13] Ot
    You're making us look bad!
[16:17] Ha
    Eijun.
[16:20] Sa
    I'll send ball flying, so... No, wait!
[16:22] Sa
    I'll pitch very carefully,
[16:24] Sa
    so thank you everyone beforehand!
[16:27] Ku
    Think before you talk, idiot!
[16:29] Ka
    Don't forget to breathe!
[16:31] Ma
    You idiot!
[16:38] (Flashback) Ha
    Next up, first-year pitcher,
    Sawamura.
[16:42] (Flashback) Ha
    He's a southpaw with a moving
    fastball pitch and a weird form.
[16:46] (Flashback) Ha
    He doesn't have power,
    so the ball goes pretty far,
[16:50] (Flashback) Ha
    but most batters get jammed by his pitch.
[16:53] (Flashback) Ha
    He's been coming out
    at some important times,
[16:57] (Flashback) Ha
    and is quickly becoming
    a key pitcher at Seido.
[17:02] Na
    What does that even mean?
[17:04] Na
    Is he good or not?
[17:10] Na
    Which is it?
[17:12] Na
    Tell me.
[17:15] R1
    Two outs and runners
    on first and second.
[17:18] R1
    The outfield has moved in
    to prevent any runs.
[17:21] R1
    The best outcome for Seido
    would be to jam an infield grounder
[17:24] R1
    or maybe even a strikeout.
[17:28] R1
    But...
[17:40] Ka
    Does he know how important this is?
[17:44] Ka
    If he gives up a run here,
[17:46] Ka
    it could end the game for us.
[17:59] (Flashback) I1
    Narumiya, use this bat!
[18:03] (Flashback) Na
    Wait. Isn't that...
[18:04] (Flashback) I1
    A Ty Cobb bat design.
[18:05] (Flashback) I1
    It has a longer contact area
    that makes it easier to hit.
[18:09] (Flashback) I1
    It's effective for his moving...
[18:14] (Flashback) I1
    Don't make that face.
[18:15] (Flashback) IC
    Don't be stubborn
    about your style here.
[18:20] (Flashback) IC
    Take him down and go finish the game.
[18:26] Na
    He can only pitch a moving fastball.
[18:30] Na
    If he throws anything easy,
    I'll send it flying.
[18:34] Na
    How does Kazuya give plays
    to pitchers like him, anyway?
[18:39] Mi
    Both Furuya...
[18:41] Mi
    ...and Tanba-san pitched their best.
[18:45] Mi
    Now it's your turn.
    Give me your best shot!
[19:08] Um
    Strike!
[19:11] Na
    What's with his form?
[19:15] Na
    I can't see the ball!
[19:21] Ka
    Nice pitch!
[19:22] C1
    Yeah, Sawamura!
[19:24] 31
    Are you serious?
[19:25] 31
    He threw inside!
[19:27] 32
    A small mistake, and the
    ball's in the outfield.
[19:29] 33
    Who cares about that?
[19:31] 33
    If they give up another run, it's over!
[19:33] 32
    Looks like they're putting
    it all on the line.
[19:35] 34
    Yeah.
[19:36] 34
    Now, they can throw outside
    pitches all they want.
[19:40] C1
    His pitch looks a lot faster
    from the batter's box.
[19:45] C2
    Yeah.
[19:46] C3
    Well, I'm not too surprised.
[19:48] C3
    He was brave enough to face me.
[19:55] Um
    Strike!
[19:57] Na
    What? Again?
[20:00] I1
    Another inside pitch?
[20:05] C1
    Wow! They're aggressive.
[20:09] C2
    That catcher hasn't changed.
[20:12] C2
    The next one will be
    in the completely opposite corner.
[20:23] C2
    Three consecutive pitches...
[20:25] C2
    ...to the inside?
[20:28] Na
    You little... Don't get cocky!
[20:53] Sa
    Let's go!
[20:55] Sa
    Yes! Yes! Yes!
[20:56] Sa
    Yes! Yes! Yes!
SIGN    KICK
SIGN    miss
[21:08] R1
    Narumiya-kun went down in three pitches.
[21:11] R2
    And they were all to the inside.
[21:15] C1
    Narumiya would get pissed
    and even swing at a ball.
[21:19] C1
    He read the batter very well.
[21:23] 31
    Three inside pitches in a row!
[21:26] 31
    What an idiot!
[21:28] 31
    He swung at a ball!
[21:31] 32
    It was a pretty risky pitch sequence,
[21:35] 32
    but he's got some guts
    to be able to execute it.
[21:41] Wa
    Eijun.
[21:43] Sa
    Yes! Yes!
[21:44] Ku
    Cut it out.
[21:46] Ta
    Sawamura.
[21:49] Ta
    Nice pitch.
[23:36] Sa
    Yes! Yes! Yes!
[23:37] Sa
    Yes! Yes! Yes!
[23:38] Sa
    Yes! Yes! Yes!
[23:40] Mi
    We managed to defend the inning,
[23:41] Mi
    but we have just two more innings to go.
[23:43] Mi
    We need to find a way to score.
[23:45] Ch
    It's an all-or-nothing gamble,
[23:46] Ch
    but this is the only way to get Narumiya.
[23:49] Ry
    Go on. It's your chance.
[23:50] Ku
    Ryo-san.
[23:51] Ry
    I know you can do it.
[23:53] Ry
    Next time on Ace of the Diamond:
    Reliable Underclassmen.
