    Hey!
[02:59] Kam
    Are you a new student?!
[03:00] Nish
    Oh, hey, pal. Where's my class sitting?
    I don't know which class I'm in yet.
[03:04] Kam
    Wh-What?! First, you waltz in late,
    and then you address a teacher like that?!
[03:10] Nish
    Oh, you're a teacher? My bad, man.
[03:13] Kam
    What's your name?
[03:14] Kam
    How did a boy like you manage to get
    into this prestigious school? Answer me!

    Your seat is in the middle

[03:23] Nish
    'Kay, gotcha. Thanks a bunch.
[03:25] Kam
    What's wrong with that student?!
    No way in hell is he right for this school...
[03:29] Kum
    He got in on a sports scholarship.
[03:33] Kam
    A sports scholarship?
[03:34] Kum
    He's here to bolster the baseball team
    and its depleted roster.

    Hey, Mutsuko, are you sure you wanna
    let those guys play on our field?
[04:57] Mut
    What?
[05:01] Nish
    Give us a grounder!
[05:05] Nish
    Idiot!
[05:14] Kan
    Hey, you! What are you doing?!
[05:17] Kan
    We don't maintain this field so
    you can mess it up with your games!
[05:20] Kan
    This field's reserved for the team!
[05:23] Chi
    For the team, you say?
[05:24] Chi
    Try again. This is a baseball field.
[05:28] Chi
    You girls are on the softball team, right?
[05:31] Mut
    We're the baseball team.
[05:35] Mut
    You got a problem with
    girls playing baseball?
[05:38] Nish
    You've got to be kidding me.
[05:40] Nish
    I heard there were only six players left on
    the team after the majority quit last year,
[05:45] Nish
    but I didn't expect the Fuurin baseball team
    to be a straight-up girls' side.
[05:50] Nish
    No wonder they went out and headhunted
    the best players from the Nanyou Lions.
[05:58] Tao
    Nanyou? That's a super-strong club.
[06:00] Yayo
    If it's the Lions...
[06:02] Kan
    S-So you're the new recruits
    everyone's talking about?
[06:05] Nish
    Exactly. We all got sports scholarships
    to come to this weak school.
[06:11] Nish
    Good for you, huh? Your school
    just became a powerhouse overnight.
[06:16] Nish
    If you girls are lucky, you might
    play outfield, or become managers.
[06:19] Kan
    No way! I joined because
    I thought I'd get to play in games!
[06:23] Kan
    I won't let first-years hijack our team!
[06:26] Ume
    Where's our team room?
[06:28] Chi
    Let's get changed and start practice.
[06:35] Mut
    Hold on.
[06:36] Mut
    You haven't done the paperwork to join,
    and I haven't given permission for anything.
[06:41] Nish
    Permission? And who the
    hell do you think you are?
[06:44] Mut
    I'm Sakura Mutsuko, the vice-captain.
[06:47] Mut
    Besides, didn't they teach the Nanyou Lions
    how to speak to senior players politely?
[06:53] Mut
    Manners aren't just for
    the baseball field, either...
[06:56] Tao
    Good job!
[06:59] Nish
    Don't touch me! You're just the vice-captain!
[07:02] Nish
    Wait, does this mean the captain's
    a girl, too? Gimme a break...

[07:18] Dai
    Are you guys actually interested
    in joining the baseball team?
[07:21] Nish
    So that's the team room.
[07:23] Dai
    My name's Shigeno Daigo! I'm in Class 2-C,
    and I'm captain of the Fuurin baseball team...
[07:28] Dai
    Oh, I guess you don't need
    to know what class I'm in.
[07:31] Dai
    Anyone interested in joining,
    write your name and class here.
[07:34] Dai
    And if you put down any previous
    experience, and the position you're best at...
[07:38] Dai
    If you don't have one,
    just say where you want to—
[07:41] Chi
    We're changing, so don't open the door.
[07:44] Dai
    Huh?
[07:48] Guy
    Dude, seriously? First, it's all girls,
    then the captain comes out and he's a shrimp!
[07:54] Chi
    This team's so weak,
    it could be in an anime.
[07:57] Guy
    By the way, Nishina,
    when's Coach gonna get here?
[08:00] Nish
    He said he had to wrap
    stuff up with the Lions first.
[08:03] Nish
    It'll be another week or so.
[08:07] Dai
    Sports scholarships?
[08:08] Mut
    Yes, all five of them played
    for the Nanyou Lions.
[08:11] Dai
    Nanyou?! That famous school?
[08:13] Kan
    Yeah! That's why they're so full of themselves
    and act like they own the place!
[08:17] Yayo
    They said us girls should become managers.
[08:19] Tao
    They think we stink.
[08:22] Mut
    First impressions are key, Daigo!
    They didn't show us any respect.
[08:27] Mut
    As captain, you need to take them to task!
[08:31] Nish
    All right, let's do this!
[08:33] All
    Yeah!
[08:33] All
    Let's go!
[08:35] Nish
    Okay, start off with
    five laps of base running!
[08:37] Nish
    And then Warm-up A!
[08:39] All
    Roger!
[08:41] Mut
    Hey! Why didn't you say anything?!
[08:44] Mut
    They just started practice
    without even saying a word!
[08:52] Dai
    Mutsuko. Please take care of
    anyone else who shows up to join.
[08:56] Mut
    Huh? Ah, right. Go give 'em
    a dressing-down, captain!
[09:00] Dai
    No. I'm going to go join in with their routine.
[09:07] Kan
    What the hell?
[09:07] Mut
    Daigo!
[09:08] Yayo
    Well, I didn't expect much.
[09:09] Tao
    I mean, Daigo confronting
    guys like that? Please.
[09:13] Yayo
    It's stuff like this that makes them cocky.
[09:15] Kan
    "I'll be your big sis"?
[09:17] Mut
    They didn't even look at that.
[09:19] Yayo
    Oh, true.
[09:20] Tao
    Anyway, up to now, it's just been us,
    so it didn't matter who we had as captain.
[09:26] Tao
    But maybe it's time we rethought
    who fills that role. Right, Mutsuko?
[09:41] Dai
    Yay, I win! I did it! Huh?
[09:46] Nis
    Moron. It wasn't a race.
[09:48] Chi
    And anyway, don't just join in with our warm-up.
[09:51] Dai
    Oh, I'm sorry. I just wanted to experience
    what a Nanyou Lions training session is like.
[09:55] Dai
    Is it okay if I join in?
[09:58] Chi
    What?
[09:59] Dai
    I feel like I'd learn a lot from warm-up
    routines they do in strong clubs.
[10:03] Guy
    We don't do anything special.
[10:06] Dai
    That's fine, too!
[10:08] Dai
    If I train with you guys,
    I'll see how good you are.
[10:17] Dai
    Ow.
[10:18] Dai
    What was that for?!
[10:21] Nish
    So you finally snapped, Captain Shrimpy.
[10:24] Nish
    I can't stand your fake friendliness
    when us first-years are mocking you.
[10:29] Nish
    See how good we are, my ass! Don't try
    to be the bigger person when you suck!
[10:32] Nish
    When we were with the Lions,
    skill was king! Age didn't matter!
[10:37] Nish
    Once you're on the field,
    the best player calls the shots!
[10:41] Mut
    Hey! What are you doing?!
[10:43] Mut
    Did they do something?
[10:44] Dai
    No.
[10:45] Mut
    Listen up!
[10:46] Mut
    Once Coach and some useful new
    players come in, you'll be benched!
[10:51] Mut
    If you don't want first-years talking
    to you like they're on your level,
[10:54] Mut
    maybe you should just quit, Mr. Senior.
[10:59] Mut
    All right, time for some stretches!
[11:01] All
    Okay!
[11:03] Dai
    I agree!
[11:06] Dai
    Just because someone's born a year earlier
[11:08] Dai
    doesn't mean you should kowtow to them
    if they have no skill and zero drive.
[11:12] Dai
    Like you say, on the field,
    skill's the thing that matters.
[11:16] Dai
    So we'll see where everyone's at.
[11:18] Dai
    It's not fair to talk someone down
    without even knowing their skill level.
[11:21] Nis
    Interesting. Then, let's see
    what "skills" you got, shall we?
[11:26] Nis
    If you have any, that is.
[11:32] Dai
    Since we're showing off our skills,
    our only option is to play a game.
[11:38] All
    A game?!
[11:39] Mut
    Are you serious, Daigo?!
[11:42] Dai
    Totally.
[12:06] Nis
    If this is all of you, let's begin already.
[12:08] Dai
    Yeah, let's get to it.
[12:10] Nis
    I can only see a future where you guys are
    packing your bags, bawling your eyes out.
[12:17] Nis
    All right! Team First-Years will bat last.
    The girls' team will bat first.
[12:22] Kan
    Hey! We're not just girls!
    Call us Team Upperclassmen!
[12:26] Kan
    That guy's so damn irritating...
[12:29] Mut
    Is this really wise?
[12:32] Mut
    If we lose, they'll mock us for all eternity.
[12:37] Dai
    We've got no choice.
    They said skill decides everything.
[12:40] Dai
    Unless we show them our skills and
    beat them, they won't listen to us.
[12:46] Mut
    But they're ex-Lions. Lions!
[12:48] Dai
    It's fine, it's fine.
[12:50] Dai
    No matter how good their club was,
    they were grade schoolers up until recently.
[12:54] Dai
    If you consider how much progress
    we made this year, we'll have no—
[13:06] Yayo
    Ah...
[13:07] Tao
    I guess that explains the attitude.
[13:11] Nis
    All right, we're ready. Play ball!
[13:18] Nis
    Don't start crying now.

    They pretended not to care about first
    and secretly put out a sign.

    I thought, with all these girls, you were
    just playing at being a baseball team,
[18:10] Nis
    but you're actually not horrible.
[18:12] Dai
    Oh? Should we stop, then?
[18:14] Dai
    If you show your seniors some respect,
    we won't insist on finishing this game.
[18:18] Nis
    Shut your yap.
[18:19] Nis
    We're going to build the strongest Fuurin
    team ever seen, starting with our year!
[18:25] Nis
    You annoying upperclassmen
    are just in our way!
[18:48] Tan
    Out! Three outs! Change sides!
[18:51] All
    Yeah! Nice double play!
[18:53] All
    Let's keep it up!
[18:54] ---
    Looking good!
[18:55] Dai
    You're probably wondering why you're not
    getting any good hits. I'll explain it to you.
[19:01] Dai
    I can tell just by looking
    that you're all good.
[19:04] Dai
    But up until recently,
    you've been playing little league.
[19:07] Dai
    The biggest difference between
    little league and middle school baseball...
[19:11] Dai
    The thing you guys just can't deal with...
[19:15] Dai
    ...is breaking balls.
[19:20] Txt
    Upperclassmen
[19:20] Txt
    Brats
[19:20] All
    You got this!
[19:24] Nis
    Breaking balls?
[19:26] Dai
    All right, bring it!
[19:28] All
    Knock it out of the park, Daigo!
[19:30] All
    This inning's ours!
[19:32] Nis
    These guys... are treating me like a child!
[19:38] Tan
    Ball!
[19:41] Nis
    I don't need you to tell me there are breaking
    balls in middle school! I already know!
[19:51] Yayo
    Oh my.
[19:52] Tao
    What happened?
[19:52] Chi
    What the hell?
[19:55] Dai
    You don't have to try so hard
    to throw a breaking ball.
[19:59] Dai
    You're probably not used to the
    balls we use in middle school yet,
[20:02] Dai
    and I guess you only practiced pitching
    breaking balls for fun, right?
[20:06] Dai
    Don't worry about that stuff.
    Just show me what you're good at.
[20:10] Dai
    I wanna see if you've got the
    firepower to become our ace.
[20:14] Nis
    How dare you talk down to me?!
[20:17] Nis
    Who do you think I am, shrimp?!
[20:19] Tan
    Ball!
[20:20] Dai
    Too much power means
    you can't swing your arm.
[20:22] Dai
    Don't rush the pitch.
[20:26] Nis
    Shut up!
[20:42] Chi
    Seriously? That's an
    inside-the-park home run, isn't it?
[20:44] Dai
    What are you doing, shortstop?! Go get it!
[20:49] Dai
    You've got to be kidding me!
[20:50] Dai
    Are you like this in all your games?!
[20:53] Dai
    Disrespect us all you want, but I will
    not tolerate you disrespecting baseball!
[21:01] Tao
    That was impressive.
[21:03] Mut
    Daigo...
[21:08] Dai
    So what shall we do? Want to continue?
[21:11] Dai
    With your experience,
    you must have noticed by now.
[21:14] Dai
    You prejudged us and assumed we sucked.
[21:18] Dai
    We don't have the numbers, but our
    third-years last year were pretty good,
[21:23] Dai
    and together with our coach,
    they taught us a lot.
[21:25] Dai
    And while you dismissed them
    as losers because they're girls,
[21:28] Dai
    their training regime was the same
    as the boys the entire time.
[21:31] Dai
    They can go toe-to-toe with your average boy.
[21:34] Dai
    Especially the two in the middle,
    Tao and Sawa-san,
[21:37] Dai
    who were regulars for Yokohama Little,
    and made it to Nationals.
[21:42] Chi
    Yokohama Little?!
[21:50] Dai
    Nishina, you could make a good pitcher.
[21:52] Dai
    The rest of you looked good out there, too.
[21:57] Dai
    I won't tell you to kowtow
    to us upperclassmen,
[22:00] Dai
    nor do I want to us to pretend
    we're the best of friends.
[22:03] Dai
    The more we compete with each other,
    the stronger this team will get.
[22:07] Dai
    This battle between us isn't over.
    It's only just begun.
[22:12] Dai
    Welcome to the Fuurin baseball team.
[24:00] Dai
    All right! Along with Nishina and his gang,
    we got two more girls from Yokohama Little!
[24:06] Dai
    The new team's finally coming together!
[24:09] Mut
    Daigo, I'm not playing pitcher anymore!
[24:11] Dai
    Huh? Why are you all mad, Mutsuko?
[24:13] Mut
    It's these new members!
    I don't think I can go on like this!
[24:17] Dai
    Hey, come on...
[24:19] Mut
    Next time: "That Catcher's Got a Sharp Tongue."
SIGN    That Catcher's Got a Sharp Tongue
[24:22] Dai
    Run to the stage of your dreams!
