    Field change for Oobi Middle.
[00:05] Ann
    Idemitsu-kun is taking over
    from pitcher Seko-kun.
[00:10] Ann
    Seko-kun moves to shortstop.
    Mayumura-san moves to second.
[00:15] Tan
    What? A pitcher change after three
    innings when he was on for a no-hitter?
[00:20] Ani
    Jus' like against Eihou, they're splittin' the
    pitchin' duties by doin' three innings each.
[00:28] Dai
    Splitting the pitching, huh?
[00:30] Dai
    If every three innings, they switch
    to a pitcher we haven't seen before,
[00:34] Dai
    it gives us zero time to
    get used to their pitching.

    Four innings left. I really want to
    claw some of that back at least,
[00:44] Dai
    but it's gonna be tough.
[02:16] Ann
    Batting first, center field, Fujii-san.
[02:20] Fuj
    Yeah! Chisato! Make 'em suffer!

    Strike! You're out!
[02:50] Fuj
    No, these things happen!
[02:52] Fuj
    Just focus on the next one! The next one!
[02:55] Kao
    We get it, so maybe just sit
    back down and watch, yeah?
[02:58] Chi
    What was that? There's no way
    I can hit a slider like that.
[03:01] Dai
    Chisato, go to the bullpen
    and start warming up with Anita.
[03:06] Chi
    Huh?
[03:07] Dai
    Nishina's reached his limit, so we'll switch
    you in for the bottom of the inning.
[03:11] Chi
    Oh, uh, sure!
[03:14] Ani
    Yer gettin' switched out. Ya okay with that?
[03:17] Nis
    Shut up.
[03:18] Nis
    I gave up five runs. What else was he gonna do?
[03:30] Ump
    Out!
[03:32] Ump
    Oh, wow.
[03:35] Ump
    Strike! Out!
[03:37] Ump

[03:52] Dai
    Oh, uh, right.
[03:56] Ann
    Field change for Fuurin Academy.
[04:00] Ann
    Center fielder Fujii-san is taking
    over from pitcher Nishina-kun.
[04:06] Ann
    Nishina-kun moves to center field.
[04:10] Mic
    They switched him out.
[04:11] Ide
    I think she used to be a relief
    pitcher for Yokohama Little, too.
[04:16] Dai
    I didn't really want to throw you in
    when you've barely had any prep time,
[04:20] Dai
    but we've got no choice.
[04:21] Dai
    Anyway, just throw strikes and try to
    get us through the remaining innings.
[04:26] Chi
    Yes, sir! I'll do my best!
[04:31] Ann
    Batting seventh, right field, Miura-kun.
[04:35] Ump
    Play!
[04:38] Dai
    Seems like she's got zero nerves.
    I wonder if she'll be okay...
[04:50] Ump
    Three outs. Change sides.
[04:55] Fuj
    Heck, yeah! That's my daughter!
[04:58] Kao
    Amazing...
[05:03] Dai
    That was seriously great, Chisato!
[05:05] Dai
    I already liked what I saw in practice, 
    but I didn't know you were that good!
[05:09] Chi
    Oh, it was nothing, really.
    It was the bottom of their order.
[05:12] Chi
    Besides, my stamina's not great either,
    so don't expect too much from me.
[05:18] Nis
    Did she just say "either"?
[05:20] Chi
    Anyway, it's time we got a run on the board.
[05:23] Chi
    We haven't even registered a hit yet.
[05:26] Dai
    Uh, right.
[05:28] Nis
    Don't get cocky just 'cause
    you made it through one inning!
[05:31] Mut
    Being a starting pitcher is
    a lot harder in so many ways!
[05:35] Chi
    Excuse me?
[05:37] Ann
    Top of the fifth, Fuurin Academy to bat.
[05:41] Ann
    Batting fourth, catcher, Shigeno-kun.
[05:47] Dai
    She's right. We still haven't gotten a hit.
[05:54] Ump
    Strike!
[06:02] Ump
    Strike two!
[06:04] Dai
    There's no way I can hit a slider
    this sharp on my first look at it.
[06:13] Dai
    There's no way...
[06:17] Dai
    But if the captain gives up, it's all over!
[06:24] Ump
    Foul!
[06:29] Dai
    I won't let you get a perfect
    game with relief pitchers!
[06:34] Ump
    Ball!
[06:36] Ani
    Nice, Senpai! A full count!
[06:39] Mut
    Hang in there!
[06:43] Ide
    So annoying.
[06:48] Ump
    Foul!
[06:50] Sek
    It's still a perfect game, Idemitsu!
[06:52] Sek
    Don't walk him!
[06:56] Mit
    It looks like he hasn't inherited
    his father's talent for baseball,
[07:00] Mit
    but Shigeno-kun's always had
    the same air about him.
[07:11] Ump
    Ball! Ball four!
[07:14] Mut
    Yeah, good eye!
[07:15] Ani
    We got a runner!
[07:19] Ide
    Damn.
[07:20] Ann
    Batting fifth, center field, Nishina-kun.
[07:23] Nis
    Let's do this!
[07:25] Ani
    Yer lookin' up for this.
[07:26] Nis
    'Course I am! I'm gonna go big and
    bag us two runs to get us rolling!
[07:32] Tao
    Whew, thank goodness. They won't
    get a perfect game now.
[07:36] Tao
    That woulda been embarrassing.
[07:38] Dai
    It's not over yet. We'll get a hit next,
    then avoid the shutout.
[07:42] Dai
    After that, there may be
    even more to come, you know?
[07:47] Ump
    Play!
[07:51] (Flashback) Dai
    We don't have another pitcher ready!
[07:54] (Flashback) Dai
    Besides, the game isn't over yet, and
    there's too many innings left to just give up!
[07:57] (Flashback) Dai
    A starting pitcher doesn't throw in the
    towel just because they got a bloody nose!
[08:01] Nis
    Damn it all.
[08:04] Nis
    They got those five runs off me.
[08:06] Nis
    I have to get them back with my bat!
[08:11] Nis
    Damn! His fastball's plenty quick,
    and he's got sliders in the mix as well?
[08:18] Dai
    You can do it! Relax!
[08:21] Nis
    Anita's next up, huh?
[08:24] Nis
    What I need to do above all else right now...
[08:26] Nis
    ...is advance the runner!
[08:36] Uoz
    First!
[08:38] Ump
    Out!
[08:41] Mut
    Nice bunt!
[08:43] Ide
    Why? We coulda got him out at second.
[08:46] Uoz
    We're five runs up.
    We don't have to take risks.
[08:49] Uoz
    If we mess up and allow more runners on base,
    we'll be playing right into their hands.
[08:53] Ann
    Batting sixth, left field, Kabashima-san.
[08:57] Ani
    Nishina was all set to slug it,
    but he went for a bunt instead?
[09:05] Ump
    Strike!
[09:07] Ani
    We can't jus' roll over
    and let it end like this!
[09:12] Ani
    One run.
[09:14] Ani
    I hafta get Shigeno-senpai
    home, no matter what!
[09:20] Uoz
    Second!
[09:24] Mut
    It didn't go through!
[09:26] Dai
    No, but from that angle,
    a leftie can't throw it to first in time—
[09:33] Ump
    Out!
[09:36] Tao
    So close. I thought that
    was gonna be our first hit.
[09:40] Ani
    You gotta be kiddin' me! No way
    was that a middle school play!
[09:44] Uoz
    Nice, Michiru!
[09:46] Ide
    Phew, I thought our no-no was toast.
[09:50] Ann
    Batting seventh, first base, Tanba-kun.
[09:54] Yay
    And Tanba-san's up now...
[09:57] Yay
    Looks like Nishina's bunt was for nothing.
[10:03] Dai
    Tanba-san, pick one to swing at!
[10:05] Dai
    It'll be fine! You can do this!
[10:07] Dai
    Just relax!
[10:12] Nis
    Oh, yeah, Kandori the
    southpaw killer is up after him.
[10:16] Nis
    If Tanba can keep us rolling...
[10:21] Ani
    He kept us rollin'!
[10:23] Chi
    Not that he did anything, but still!
[10:26] Uoz
    Timeout!
[10:29] Uoz
    Yo, man, what's wrong?
[10:31] Ide
    Well, I tried catching that ball earlier
    with my left hand and it hit my finger.
[10:37] Uoz
    So is your finger okay?
[10:40] Ide
    It's nothing to worry about.
    It's just a bit numb, that's all.
[10:45] Ide
    I'll take out their 8-hole and that'll be that.
[10:48] Ann
    Batting eighth, third base, Kandori-san.
[10:55] Dai
    Two outs, runners on first and third.
[10:58] Dai
    Top of the fifth, 0-5 down.
[11:00] Dai
    We still haven't gotten a hit,
    but this is our first real chance.
[11:04] Dai
    With Kandori the southpaw killer
    at bat, something might happen.
[11:11] Ump
    Ball!
[11:14] Uoz
    That Idemitsu... Is he still feeling
    the effects of the ball hitting his hand?
[11:19] Uoz
    Considering the strikeout earlier,
[11:22] Uoz
    I doubt their 8-hole can get
    anything on Idemitsu's fastball.
[11:27] Uoz
    But we should play it safe
    and go for a slider, anyway.
[11:35] Ump
    Ball!
[11:36] Nis
    Yeah, all right!
[11:37] Ani
    Nice, nice, nice!
[11:39] Ani
    The pitcher's lost it!
[11:41] Mic
    What are you doing, Idemitsu?
    Get it in the strike zone already!
[11:45] Ide
    Can it.
[11:47] Ide
    I haven't got the feeling
    back in my fingertips yet.
[11:50] Uoz
    He's having trouble with breaking balls.
[11:53] Uoz
    We've got no choice.
    We can't walk their 8-hole here.
[11:57] Uoz
    Fastball!
[12:02] Ump
    Strike!
[12:04] Tao
    That's one you have to hit.
[12:09] Ump
    Strike two!
[12:11] Ump
    Come on.
[12:12] Ani
    You gotta swing, Senpai!
[12:13] Nis
    She can't see those pitches.
[12:16] Dai
    Even if she's good against southpaws,
[12:18] Dai
    I guess a pitcher at that level
    is just too fast for her.
[12:22] Ide
    Finish her!
[12:27] Uoz
    Second!
[12:37] Nis
    She dropped it!
[12:38] Dai
    Kandori, run!
[12:42] Uoz
    It's behind you, Michiru!
[12:52] Kan
    And I'm dead.
[13:01] Ump
    Safe!
[13:03] All
    Yeah!
[13:05] Mut
    Nice, Kan-chan!
[13:07] Yay
    That's our southpaw killer for you.
[13:09] Tao
    Hey, are you okay, Kandori?
[13:12] Kan
    I'm fine, I'm fine.
[13:15] Tao
    You did great.
[13:16] Tao
    You let two strikes go by, so I was
    convinced you couldn't swing.
[13:21] Kan
    Well, he was pitching more balls,
    so I figured he was struggling.
[13:26] Kan
    And at five runs down,
    a base on balls is better, right?
[13:32] Tao
    Nice.
[13:35] Ide
    Damn! The no-no and shutout relay bit the dust.
[13:39] Ide
    I never expected her to get so much on that.
[13:43] Uoz
    It's no good. If you still can't throw
    sliders, we'll switch Michiru in.
[13:48] Ide
    What? Is this some bad joke?!
    I haven't even pitched two full innings!
[13:54] Ide
    That makes it look like
    they got the better of me!
[13:57] Uoz
    Stop getting so hung up on your stupid pride!
[14:00] Uoz
    If you can't hit top form because
    you're shaking off an injury,
[14:03] Uoz
    we don't know what might happen.
[14:05] Uoz
    If their 9-hole up next gets on base,
    they're back to the top of their order.
[14:10] Uoz
    If they manage to claw back all those runs,
    will you take responsibility for that?
[14:15] Uoz
    Didn't we decide to take the
    middle school rubber-ball crown?
[14:19] Uoz
    We don't have time to stumble even
    once against this kind of opponent.
[14:25] Uoz
    Oh well. I don't want to put Michiru
    on the mound without warming up first.
[14:31] Uoz
    Shut this 9-hole down.
[14:33] Uoz
    If you don't, we're switching to Michiru.
[14:37] Ann
    Batting ninth, right field, Sakura-san.
[14:43] Ani
    Keep us rollin', Senpai!
[14:45] Ide
    Like hell you will!
[14:47] Ump
    Ball!
[14:49] Ani
    Nice, nice, nice!
[14:51] Dai
    She's been giving it her all
    out in right field this game.
[14:54] Dai
    After pitching three games back-to-back,
    including the whole of today's early game,
[14:58] Dai
    Mutsuko must be totally drained,
    physically and emotionally.
[15:11] Ump
    Are you okay?
[15:12] Mut
    Oh gosh, that was embarrassing.
[15:27] Ump
    Foul!
[15:28] Mut
    I touched it!
[15:32] Ump
    Foul!
[15:34] Uoz
    This is annoying.
    She's waiting for his fastballs.
[15:38] Uoz
    In that case, let's go for a slider.
[15:43] Uoz
    We only have one ball so far.
[15:45] Uoz
    If this is a ball too, it won't matter,
[15:47] Uoz
    and if it's a strike, she won't get near it.
[15:49] Uoz
    Since she's got her back to the wall,
    she'll swing at it, anyway!
[15:56] Mut
    Aw man, he threw a slider!
[16:00] Uoz
    Crap!
[16:02] Dai
    An uncaught third strike! Run!
[16:04] Mut
    Seriously?!
[16:12] Mut
    O-Oh no!
[16:13] Mut
    My leg's cramping!
[16:34] Ump
    Safe! Safe!
[16:36] Ani
    Heck yeah!
[16:37] Dai
    Can't stop this train, and it's bases loaded!
[16:41] Mut
    I-I'm so relieved...
[16:47] Ani
    Senpai! You need ta get on deck.
    I'll take over as base coach!
[16:51] Tao
    Right.
[16:56] Ide
    I'm getting swapped out for that? Really?
[17:00] Mic
    Uozumi, you should've had that one.
[17:02] Uoz
    All right, all right. You get one more chance.
[17:06] Uoz
    You have to stop them scoring!
[17:08] ---
    Batting first, pitcher, Fujii-san.
[17:15] Dai
    Mutsuko...
[17:17] Ide
    Dammit!
[17:18] Ide
    Don't get so cocky, losers!
[17:24] Ide
    Wha—
[17:25] Dai
    All right! We got another run back!
[17:28] Nis
    No, no, no, no!
[17:31] Dai
    It's 2-5! Three runs in it!
[17:33] Chi
    Yay!
[17:35] Kao
    She's got good sense.
    I wonder who she takes after.
[17:38] Fuj
    What's that supposed to mean?
[17:41] Uoz
    Well, you won't stop an ex-Yokohama
    Little player with fastballs.
[17:47] Uoz
    Michiru!
[17:49] Ann
    Field change for Oobi Middle.
[17:53] Ann
    Mayumura-san is taking over
    from pitcher Idemitsu-kun.
[18:03] Uoz
    I never dreamed we'd have to put
    you up on the mound in the fifth.
[18:07] (Flashback) Uoz
    I know your arm isn't warmed
    up yet. You going to be okay?
[18:12] (Flashback) Mic
    I didn't think you'd feel
     the need to ask me that.
[18:15] (Flashback) Mic
    As if these guys could hit my pitches.
[18:18] (Flashback) Mic
    These guys chickened out of
    joining Senior League. I didn't.
[18:23] Dai
    So Michiru-chan's their trump card, huh?
[18:27] Dai
    Tao.
[18:28] Dai
    Do you know what pitches Mayumura has?
[18:30] Dai
    From the game earlier, it looked
    like she had sliders, curveballs,
[18:34] Dai
    and something like a changeup.
[18:37] Tao
    Yeah, yeah, I know. I was watching, too.
[18:41] Yay
    Her fastballs are fast as hell
    and she's got variety.
[18:44] Tao
    It'll be impossible to do
    anything first time up.
[18:48] Dai
    The momentum's with us this inning.
[18:52] Dai
    Please don't let it ebb away, Tao.
[18:54] Ann
    Batting second, shortstop, Sagara-san.

[19:32] (Flashback) Yay
    Oh, yeah, did you hear, Tao?
[19:34] (Flashback) Tao
    Hear what?
[19:35] (Flashback) Yay
    Mayumura Michiru apparently
    gave Senior League a go, too.
[19:40] (Flashback) Tao
    What? Seriously?
[19:42] (Flashback) Yay
    Yup, intel from Nishina.
[19:44] (Flashback) Tao
    Wow, that's impressive.
[19:46] (Flashback) Tao
    Sure, even boys have to be
    good to make it in, but for a girl,
[19:49] (Flashback) Tao
    it's impossible without crazy
    determination and a body to back it up.
[19:54] Ump
    Strike two!
[19:56] (Flashback) Yay
    It's a pain in the butt.
[19:57] (Flashback) Yay
    Both Daigo and Anita get super serious
    when we take on these try-hards.
[20:04] (Flashback) Yay
    A real pain in the butt.
    They all get their uniforms so dirty...
[20:09] (Flashback) Yay
    And ours are all white...
[20:13] (Flashback) Yay
    You know, Tao...
[20:15] (Flashback) Yay
    We might not be able to do
    anything against the boys,
[20:22] (Flashback) Yay
    but don't you just get irritated
    when another girl beats you?
[20:29] Tao
    Uh-oh.
[20:30] Tao
    Oh no, a grounder to shortstop.
[20:51] (Flashback) Mut
    We're all muddy again.
[20:53] (Flashback) Tao
    Just like every day.
[20:55] Ten1
    Wow, our new uniforms are so cute!
[20:58] Ten2
    It looks so good on you!
[21:00] Ten1
    You too! You look super cute.
[21:02] Ten2
    Thank you!
[21:06] (Flashback) Mut
    Good work.
[21:08] (Flashback) Mut
    I got so dirty again today.
[21:11] (Flashback) Mut
    Huh? Tao, you're super clean!
[21:15] (Flashback) Tao
    If you're really good, you don't get dirty.

    Don't jump to any conclusions, okay?
[21:55] Tao
    It's not like I've been
    taking it easy up till now.
[21:59] Tao
    Headfirst slides don't make you any faster,
    you can get hurt, and there's no real upside.
[22:07] Tao
    I just wanted to get my uniform
    as dirty as everyone else's.
[22:22] Dai
    Okay, we got two runs back!
[22:24] Dai
    The momentum's with us!
[22:27] Dai
    The real fight starts here!
[24:00] Fuj
    All right! Just three runs behind!
[24:02] Fuj
    Stand your ground, Chisato!
