[00:03] Dai     My name's Shigeno Daigo, and I was put     into the starting lineup as catcher. [00:07] Dai     However, I put us in trouble because of     my inexperience and got subbed out. [00:11] Dai     With no outs and runners on first and second, [00:14] Dai     our regular catcher, Andy, stepped up. [00:19] Fuj     Nice one, Andy! [00:21] Ura     Yeah! A double play! [00:26] Hik     Nice! [00:27] Kom     They got us. [00:29] Kom     I didn't expect him to have the     courage to waste a pitch there. [00:33] Dai     Wow! [00:36] Dai     So that's a real catcher? [00:39] And     Two outs! [00:41] Tam     Hmph, not bad. SIGN    Nijigaoka SIGN    Mifune [02:30] Dai     The score is two–nothing. SIGN    All-Out Battle [02:31] Dai     The Nijigaoka Beetles have     the lead going into the sixth. [02:36] Dai     Two outs, and a runner on second. [02:41] And     Two down, two down! SIGN    Nijigaoka Beetles SIGN    Pitcher Tamaki [02:47] Kom     Damn it. SIGN    Nijigaoka Beetles SIGN    Manager Komori [02:48] Kom     From no outs with runners on first and     second to two outs with a runner on second. [02:52] Kom     Their pitcher's been rejuvenated     since this catcher came on the field. SIGN    Catcher SIGN    Suzuki Andy SIGN    Mifune Dolphins SIGN    Coach Fujii SIGN    Mifune Dolphins SIGN    Manager Tashiro [02:57] Fuj     First base is open. [02:59] Coa     Don't get into a battle of wills     with their cleanup. [03:01] Coa     Walk him. SIGN    Pitcher SIGN    Urabe Hayato [03:07] Tam     Huh? [03:11] Old     They're walking him, huh? [03:13] Old     Well, it's understandable. [03:18] And     Time out! [03:21] And     What's up? You don't want to walk this guy? [03:24] Ura     How did you know? [03:26] And     Of course I knew. [03:27] And     How many years have I been     catching your pitches? [03:33] Fuj     What's this? [03:34] Fuj     Don't tell me they actually     want to take this guy on... [03:44] Fuj     What?! [03:46] Ump     Play! [03:47] Dai     They're not going to walk him? [03:49] Tam     Nice. I like your style. [03:52] Fuj     Hey! Shouldn't you stop them, Tashiro? [03:55] Tas     Maybe I should, [03:57] Tas     but I've given Andy the final say     when it comes to judgment calls. [04:01] Tas     This battery must have some kind of plan. [04:06] (Flashback) Ura     Wanting to take him on     isn't an ego thing. [04:12] (Flashback) Ura     If the score was 0-0,     or we were in the lead, [04:15] (Flashback) Ura     I'd walk him without a second thought. [04:19] Ump     Foul! [04:21] Ura     But right now, we're two runs behind. [04:25] Ura     We've only got two more chances to attack. [04:28] Ura     Up to now, this ace who plays cleanup [04:30] Ura     hasn't given up a hit,     let alone a chance to score. [04:34] Ura     In order to get our team into     the counterattacking mindset, [04:37] Ura     we need to crush our opponent's ace. [04:42] Ump     Strike two! [04:44] Ura     And if we shut them out this inning after     the chances they've had, they'll be deflated. [04:50] Ura     It'll reverse the flow of the game. [04:52] Ura     I'll shut him down here [04:55] Ura     and give us the momentum! [04:58] ---     Got him! [05:02] And     Right field! SIGN    Right fielder SIGN    Sakura Mutsuko [05:05] Tam     Center, center! [05:14] Tab     Go home! [05:16] Hik     What are you doing, Mutsuko-chan?! [05:17] Sak     No! [05:19] Sak     But why? [05:20] Naka     Third run! [05:24] Tab     Yeah! Good job, Tamaki! [05:27] Naka     Sweet! A double! [05:29] Ura     That moron. We had it in the bag. [05:32] Ura     What the hell was she playing at?! [05:35] Hik     What happened, Mutsuko-chan? [05:36] Hik     You were right underneath the ball. [05:39] Sak     I heard someone shout "center." SIGN    Center SIGN    Satou Hikaru [05:43] Sak     I thought that meant you were coming for it. [05:47] Hik     Katsumata-kun, did you shout "center"? [05:51] Kat     No, I didn't. [05:53] Gramp     That girl fell for his fake-out. [05:56] Gran     Fake-out? [05:58] Gramp     The bench and the umpire     were too far away to hear it, [06:02] Gramp     but the person who tricked her      by calling "center"... [06:06] Gramp     was the runner who just batted. [06:09] Gram     Is such a cheap trick even legal? [06:12] Gramp     I don't like it, [06:14] Gramp     but it's a simple error     that wouldn't have happened [06:16] Gramp     if she'd realized it wasn't     a teammate shouting. [06:19] Kom     Damn it. Tamaki used that trick again. [06:23] Coa     I left it up to the battery,     but in the end, it all went wrong. [06:30] Coa     That extra run at this stage     of the game has really hurt us. SIGN    Nagai SIGN    Kishimoto [06:38] Kid     Well, look at that. I told you so. [06:40] Kid     That's what happens when you put     a complete beginner out on the field. SIGN    Nijigaoka SIGN    Mifune [06:50] Ump     Play! [06:54] And     Snap out of it, Urabe. [06:56] And     That last run was a real punch     to the gut, but it's not over yet! [07:01] And     Why are you throwing     such a halfhearted pitch?! [07:06] Tam     Sweet! It got through! [07:11] Tam     What?! [07:14] Ump     Out! [07:22] And     We only gave up one run. [07:30] Ura     What the hell were you doing out there?! [07:32] Ura     How could you miss such an easy fly?! [07:35] Ura     I pushed for you to start because     I believed in your abilities, [07:38] Ura     and you repay me by wrecking this game     for us by doing everything half-assed?! [07:43] Sak     I-It wasn't like that! [07:45] Sak     I went for it, but then,     someone yelled "center"... [07:48] Fuj     Cool it, Urabe! [07:50] Ura     Stop making excuses! [07:52] Ura     Anyone can tell by just looking at you     that you're not giving your best out there! [07:55] Ura     You're holding back cause you feel bad for     Nagai or something like that, aren't you?! SIGN    Takahashi [08:02] Ura     If you take someone's spot, [08:04] Ura     it's your responsibility to play     at least as well as they would have! [08:08] Ura     You owe it to the player whose spot     you took to give it all you've got! [08:14] Ura     Shigeno and Satou are     giving everything out there! [08:17] Ura     There's nothing worse than a talented player     refusing to live up to their potential! [08:24] And     That's enough, Urabe. [08:26] Ura     Damn it! [08:30] Hik     I think the person who shouted     "center" was on the other team. [08:34] Hik     I'll go tell him they tricked you,     and it wasn't because of a lack of effort. [08:38] Sak     No. It's fine. [08:41] Both     Huh? [08:44] Ann     Bottom of the sixth. [08:46] Ann     Dolphins at the plate. [08:48] Ann     Batting eighth, second     baseman, Katsumata-kun. [09:01] Ump     Out. [09:04] Kom     That insurance run we got     has made all the difference. [09:09] Kom     If we hadn't scored when     Tamaki was at the plate as cleanup, [09:13] Kom     our ace up there on the mound     would be down in the dumps right now. [09:18] Tam     One down, one down! [09:20] Ann     Batting ninth, right fielder, [09:22] Ann     Sakura-san. [09:24] (Flashback) Ura     I need to win two more games     so we can play the Touto Boys! [09:28] (Flashback) Ura     And I can't do it without you guys helping me. [09:46] Ump     Strike! [09:48] Sak     I wasn't taking this seriously. [09:50] Sak     Please don't pick me. [09:54] (Flashback) Coa     Batting ninth, right field, Sakura. [09:57] (Flashback) Nag     I've... been benched? [09:59] Sak     Urabe-kun was right. [10:02] Sak     I was feeling guilty about     what happened to Nagai-kun. [10:06] (Flashback) Ura     Put Sakura into the starting     lineup as an outfielder. [10:09] (Flashback) Ura     I think she should be near the     top of the batting order as well. [10:12] Sak     Urabe-kun really believed in my abilities     and stuck his neck out for me, [10:17] Sak     and yet, I completely     disregarded his feelings. [10:21] Sak     No... [10:23] Sak     I disregarded everyone's feelings when     they've all been trying so hard to win. [10:32] Sak     I... [10:34] Sak     I only cared about myself! [10:40] Hik     She did it! [10:41] Hik     Keep running, Mutsuko-chan! [10:47] Dai     She's fast! [10:49] Dai     I didn't realize she could run that fast! [10:54] Kis     All right! A triple! [10:56] Fuj     She broke his no-hit, no-run game! [10:59] Ari     Nice batting, Sakura! [11:06] Ann     Batting first, shortstop, Kimura-kun. [11:10] Dai     That's right. This is where     we start to fight back! [11:14] Ump     Play. [11:16] And     To think Sakura would be the first to     hit that slow ball to the opposite side... [11:21] Ura     See? I told you she had skills. [11:25] Ura     We're three runs behind. All we can do     is hit and hope a chance comes our way. [11:30] Kom     We're three runs ahead. [11:32] Kom     You can let the runner on third score,     but make sure you secure an out. [11:36] Txt     Shortstop SIGN    Kimura [11:39] Tas     This is his third time up.     He should have got his eye in by now. [11:44] Tas     Not to mention... [11:45] Kim     If the fielders drop their center of gravity     during his windup, it's a fastball. [11:50] Kim     If they don't... [11:51] Kim     ...it's a slow ball! [11:54] Hik     Yeah! [11:55] Fuj     All right! [11:56] Fuj     It found the gap! [12:00] Fuj     Awesome! We clawed back a run. 3-1! [12:04] Gra     Great! [12:09] Fuj     Kimura got a clean hit there. [12:12] Tas     Yeah, at this stage, Daigo's way of telling     which pitch is coming is really paying off! [12:17] Ann     Batting second, left fielder, Shigeno-kun. [12:21] Ump     Play! [12:22] Ura     Keep us running, Shigeno! SIGN    Nijigaoka SIGN    Mifune [12:37] Dai     To be totally honest, they got that last run     because my catching went to pot. [12:45] ---     Strike. [12:48] Hik     Daigo-kun! You can do it! [12:49] Dai     Two more runs. [12:50] Dai     If I keep us alive long enough for     Hikaru to get to the plate again... [12:55] Dai     The best way to get myself on base is... [13:00] Dai     There! [13:02] Dai     I have to aim at the least-defended place     during their Eephus shift! [13:09] Tas     A push bunt! [13:18] Ump     Safe! [13:19] Fuj     All right! [13:20] Hik     Nice bunt! [13:21] Ari     One out, runners on first and second! [13:23] Tam     Damn it. [13:26] Kom     They've discovered the Eephus     shift's biggest weak spot. [13:30] Tas     Most people in that situation would have     wanted to swing big, so well done, Daigo. [13:35] Fuj     Yeah. It's also not easy to get a solid     bunt like that from a ball that slow. [13:40] Mut     Nah, Shigeno-kun's been practicing his     bunts after reviewing the first-round game. [13:47] Mut     I think he was confident he could do it. [13:50] Eik     Well done! [13:51] Eik     Nice aim, Daigo! [13:53] Dai     Huh? [13:54] Eig     Oh, fiddlesticks! [13:56] Dai     Oh, Gramps! Grandma! [13:58] Dai     You've been here watching? [14:00] Momo     It's no good hiding your face now. [14:04] Dai     Why are you all the way over there? [14:08] Ann     Batting third, pitcher, Urabe-kun. [14:12] Tas     Watch the fielders and     if it's a slow ball, run. [14:16] Kom     Their batters are gaining in confidence. [14:20] Kom     Have they figured out     which pitch is coming? [14:23] Kom     No, if they had, the runner on first     would've started running much earlier. [14:32] Ump     Strike! [14:35] Kis     All right! A perfect double steal! [14:39] Kom     Time out! [14:40] Tas     All right, one more hit and we're tied. [14:43] Fuj     So, Tashiro, why didn't you get Kimura     to steal when Daigo was batting? [14:50] Tas     I didn't want the other team to realize [14:52] Tas     that we'd figured out their pitching     pattern by stealing bases so easily. [14:56] Tas     I was waiting for a real opportunity     like this one to come along. [14:59] Fuj     Seriously?! [15:01] Fuj     Wow. You're like a real strategist. [15:03] Tas     I bet they'll try something     to counter us now. [15:07] Tam     What? [15:08] Tam     They know what type of pitch is coming? [15:10] Kom     Yeah, the runners are looking at the     fielders to decide whether to steal or not. [15:15] Guy     Huh? [15:16] Kom     You guys are setting yourselves     for the fastball too early. [15:21] Kom     Use your slow-ball stance     until the very last moment. [15:24] All     Yes, sir! [15:26] Kom     And you two in the battery: our     opponent's getting used to your slow balls. [15:30] Kom     Use them as setup pitches,     and finish them off with fastballs. [15:33] Tam     Yes, sir. [15:37] Tam     Manager? [15:39] Tam     One hit and they're tied, and they have     the meat of the order coming up. [15:42] Tam     Is this really enough? [15:45] Kom     What are you trying to say? [15:47] Tam     Can't I use the secret weapon? [15:55] Tam     We're in a corner here. They're used     to our slow balls and half-speed balls. [15:59] Tam     If we don't do more, we risk losing. [16:02] Tam     Please let me use the secret weapon! [16:15] Tas     One hit and we're tied.      I'm counting on you, Urabe. [16:19] Ump     Play. [16:24] Ump     Ball. [16:36] Fuj     Ack! So close! [16:40] (Flashback) Kom     Definitely not! Don't forget     about your hip injury! [16:44] (Flashback) Kom     We got this far after switching to this     pitching style so it can heal properly. [16:50] (Flashback) Kom     If you pitch in a way that puts strain on     your hip, we'll be back to square one. [16:55] (Flashback) Kom     You may be tall, but the muscles holding     your body up are still that of a kid. [17:01] (Flashback) Kom     Think about your future baseball career. [17:04] Tam     His timing's getting better. [17:06] Tam     If I get the location wrong, he'll hit it. [17:11] Ump     Ball! [17:17] Ump     Ball! [17:22] Ump     Ball! Ball four! [17:25] Tas     All right! Bases loaded! [17:27] Fuj     Now, it's between him and Satou! [17:29] Mut     Good luck, Hikaru-kun! [17:31] Ann     Batting fourth, center fielder, Satou-kun. [17:37] Ump     Ball! [17:39] Ump     Ball! [17:41] Ump     Three balls. No strikes! [17:45] Fuj     He might force in the runner here! [17:46] Fuj     Stay sharp! [17:51] Kom     Tamaki! [17:53] Kom     Only for this inning! [17:55] Kom     I'm only allowing you to do it this inning! [17:57] Kom     Crush this cleanup! [18:01] Dai     "Allowing"? [18:03] Dai     What does he mean by that? [18:05] Ura     Don't tell me he has     something else up his sleeve. [18:09] Tam     Thank you... Manager... [18:13] Tam     If I can use this... [18:16] Tam     I will definitely win this game! [18:24] Ump     Strike! [18:27] Fuj     You've gotta be kidding me... [18:30] Fuj     Are you telling me he's had a pitch     like that in reserve all this time?! [18:35] Dai     Why has he waited till     now to throw that pitch? [18:40] Kom     Tamaki's max speed is     115 kilometers per hour. [18:43] Kom     The only grade schoolers who can     hit it are Touto Boys' players. [18:48] Tam     If I think about the future, [18:51] Tam     I can understand the need to hold back now. [18:55] Tam     I don't like being underhanded, but in order     to win, I'll do whatever it takes. [19:00] Tam     But all this time, I've wanted to steamroll     our opponents with my true strength! [19:06] Tam     That's what I'll do to     this batter, and then... [19:15] Kom     No way... [19:27] Fuj     It's outta here! [19:29] Fuj     We've taken the lead with a grand slam! [19:32] Ura     Is this guy for real? [19:34] Dai     Amazing! That was amazing, Hikaru! [19:37] Dai     You're a baseball genius! [19:40] Hik     Oh, come on, don't exaggerate. [19:42] Dai     No, I mean it. [19:45] Hik     It's just that, in Gunma, [19:47] Hik     the only way I could practice was     to hit fastballs at the batting center. [19:54] Hik     Maybe I timed that fastball because it was     randomly like the ones I'm used to hitting. [20:00] Kom     Don't worry about it.     That was just a bad match-up. [20:05] Kom     Chin up. It's not over yet. [20:10] Tam     Yes, sir. SIGN    Nijigaoka SIGN    Mifune [20:34] Ump     Strike! Batter out! SIGN    Nijigaoka SIGN    Mifune [20:38] Ump     That's game. [20:47] Ump     Bow! [20:48] All     Thank you! [20:52] Kom     That was a nice game, Tashiro-kun. [20:54] Kom     Thank you. [20:56] Tas     No, the honor was all ours. [20:58] Tas     Thank you very much. [20:59] Kom     Good luck in your next game. [21:02] Dai     Um, Mr. Manager? [21:05] Kom     What is it? [21:06] Dai     How come your pitcher didn't pitch     seriously until the very end? [21:13] Kom     He wasn't holding back,     if that's what you're thinking. [21:17] Kom     It's just... [21:18] Tam     Manager, let me tell them. [21:23] Tam     I've got a hip injury. [21:26] Tam     Coach and I decided on that pitching style     so I don't put unnecessary strain on it [21:31] Tam     until it's fully healed. [21:34] Tam     Since I can't pitch at full speed, [21:37] Tam     I've done whatever it takes to win. [21:40] Tam     Sorry about earlier. [21:41] Mut     Huh? [21:43] Mut     No, that was... [21:46] Tam     However, that self-imposed     ban was lifted in the sixth. [21:50] Tam     Since that ball was hit all the way     to the stands, I've got no regrets. [21:55] Hik     Right. [21:59] Hik     Wait! [22:02] Hik     When your injury's healed up,      let's play again for real! [22:07] Tam     Sure. [22:08] Tam     I definitely won't lose a rematch. [22:11] Dai     Neither will we. [22:12] Ura     It's a promise, then! [22:21] Dai     Let's play each other again someday! [24:00] Dai     In the third-round match, Nagai     replaces Sakura in the starting lineup. [24:04] Dai     He's really fired up! [24:06] Dai     I can't lag behind, either! [24:08] Dai     Let's do this, Hikaru! Let's win this one,      too, and advance to the quarterfinals! [24:13] Dai     Then, we'll finally get to     see the monstrous team [24:17] Dai     known as the Touto Boys,     that Urabe wants to beat. SIGN    I Don't Want to Lose [24:20] Dai     Next time: "I Don't Want to Lose"! [24:22] Dai     Run to the stage of your dreams!
