SIGN Girl Power, Baseball-Style
[02:15] Mut
Oh, wow! It's a proper baseball field!
[02:20] Kan
We're playing in a place this fancy?
[02:22] Yayo
Fancy? This is a regular city baseball field.
[02:25] Tao
Is this your first real game, Kandori?
[02:29] Ani
What're y'all gettin' so keyed up 'bout?
[02:32] Chi
I guess it's been half a year
since their last game.
[02:36] Dai
Yeah.
[02:38] Dai
We've been counting down the days till
we could put these uniforms on again.
[02:46] Dai
They look good on you first-years, too.
[02:52] Nis
Wish I could say the same
about the number on my back...
[02:55] Yam
I'm the only one who looks
out of place in this thing.
[03:03] Ump
Captains.
[03:04] Dai
Yes!
[03:07] Ump
Rock, paper, scissors.
Winner chooses who bats first.
[03:09] Har
Gotcha.
[03:10] Dai
I'll win this and choose to bat second!
[03:12] Har
Rock, paper...
[03:13] Both
...scissors!
[03:16] Dai
Aw, shoot.
[03:16] Har
We'd like to bat second.
[03:20] Ump
Each team gets ten minutes'
fielding practice.
[03:23] Both
Yes, sir!

[03:33] Ani
We knew their pitcher was good,
but their defense is tight, too.
[03:36] Tao
Looks like they won't give us any freebies.
[03:40] Dai
Third!
[03:50] Yok
Is this a joke? Their team's a bunch of girls!
[03:54] Har
Four... Five... I count six of 'em.
[03:57] Yok
Hey, Kobashi, you scouted these guys.
Why didn't you tell us?
[04:01] Kob
Well...
[04:02] Mur
I told him not to.
[04:06] Mur
If you'd known, you wouldn't have
taken them or your game prep seriously.
[04:10] Mur
That's why I made him tell you
only what you needed to know.
[04:18] Dai
This is our first real game, but if you
treat it like a scrimmage, we'll be fine.
[04:24] Dai
Just keep you cool and
play your natural game.
[04:29] Dai
Hopefully, we'll win and
be back here tomorrow!
[04:42] All
Let's have a good game!
[04:57] Yok
You serious, Coach?
[05:00] Yok
Putting me in as starting
pitcher in this game?
[05:04] Yok
Against girls, our second-year backup
would've been more than enough!
[05:21] Ann
Top of the first inning.
[05:23] Ann
Batting first for Fuurin Academy:
center field, Fujii-san.
[05:27] Chi
Nice to meet you.
[05:38] Yok
A bow?
[05:41] Yok
She's so polite!
[05:45] Dai
All right, let's do this!
[05:50] All
Keep your eye on the ball!
[05:52] Yok
Nice to meet you, too!
[06:02] Dai
Nice! Run!
[06:10] Ump
Safe!
[06:16] Mur
That idiot. I knew this would happen.
[06:20] Mur
Yokouchi. Take them seriously.
Stop fooling around.
[06:25] Yok
Yeah, yeah.
[06:27] Dai
Nice, Chisato!
[06:28] Ani
All right! No outs, runner on first!
[06:32] Ann
Batting second, shortstop, Sagara-san.
[06:36] Tao
If this were hardball,
that would've busted your knee.
[06:39] Yok
What was that? I was being nice.
[06:44] Yok
Well, all right. Guess I'll just have to show
you the kinda power a man can generate.
[06:50] Ump
Play!
[06:50] Dai
Keep us rolling, Tao!
[06:53] Yok
I guess I pushed my luck
with that slow pitch.
[06:57] Yok
Alrighty, then.
[07:00] Yok
Time to make you tremble!
[07:05] Ump
Strike!
[07:07] Yoko
Did ya see that?!
[07:09] Dai
All right!
[07:13] Chi
I stole a base.
[07:17] Mur
That idiot.
[07:18] Mur
How can you be that oblivious?
[07:21] Mut
Daigo, did you throw a sign
to steal a base on his first pitch?
[07:25] Dai
No, I didn't.
[07:28] Dai
But from our recon, I knew
he was no good at the slide step,
[07:34] Dai
so I gave Chisato the green light to go
whenever she feels she can make it.
[07:43] Yok
Oh, so you're the aggressive type, huh?
[07:47] Yok
Well, whatever. Who cares about runners?
[07:54] Yok
There's no way a girl can
hit my pitches, anyway!
[08:02] Yok
Katahira!
[08:03] Kat
Yokouchi!
[08:07] Ump
Safe!
[08:09] Yok
What? Safe?!
[08:11] Kat
Yokouchi, back home!
[08:13] Yok
What?
[08:21] Dai
Yes!
[08:22] Mut
We took the lead!

[08:28] Ani
Chisato! Nice running!
[08:30] Nis
Nice hit.
[08:32] Tao
Wow. Now try sounding less enthusiastic.
[08:35] Tan
We blitzed them and scored
a run in the blink of an eye.
[08:39] Tan
Our starting batters are amazing!
[08:42] Mur
Hara!
[08:43] Har
Y-Yes!
[08:44] Har
T-Timeout.
[08:48] Har
Hey, pull yourself together, Yokouchi.
[08:50] Har
Coach is fuming.
[08:52] Yok
Can it, will ya? I got this.
[08:55] Yok
Their first two batters were
just faster than I expected.
[08:59] Yok
But, well, it's not like girls can
play anything but small ball.
[09:06] Har
All the same, just don't let your guard down.
[09:09] Har
We don't even have one out yet.
[09:13] Yok
Okay, okay.
[09:23] Mur
The video we took of them showed me
they moved well for a girls' team,
[09:29] Mur
but I didn't expect this.
[09:31] Mur
They could barely hit what
the pitching machine fired at them,
[09:36] Mur
but we only ran recon on them for one day.
[09:41] Ann
Batting third, second base, Sawa-san.
[09:45] Mur
They shouldn't be able to hit Yokouchi's pitches
all that well, but you never know.
[09:48] Ump
Play!
[09:49] Dai
Sawa-san, you can hit it!
[10:04] Yok
You didn't even tie up
your annoying long hair.
[10:08] Yok
You should take baseball... more seriously!
[10:12] Ump
Ball!
[10:15] Ump
Ball two!
[10:24] Yok
Dammit!
[10:39] Yay
Oh dear. Looks like I cleared the fence.
[10:43] All
Yeah!
[10:46] Mut
That was amazing! Yayoi's amazing!
[10:49] Mut
We've already scored three runs!
[10:51] Ani
Aw, man. It got cleaned up before I got my go.
[10:56] Yam
Wait a minute.
[10:59] Yam
What's going on here?
[11:01] Yam
Don't tell me we could actually win this...
[11:06] Yam
That means I'd lose my day off tomorrow, too.
[11:11] Yay
Yay.
[11:12] Tao
Nice two-run.
[11:14] Tao
That's our Yayoi!
[11:15] Ani
Ya total buzzkill.
[11:20] Yay
Sorry for cleaning up
and ruining your fun, Anita.
[11:23] Mut

[11:23] Mut
Itsuki
[11:26] All
Nice! That was great!
[11:31] Mura
Timeout!
[11:43] Dai
Scouting them and practicing with
the machine are already paying off.
[11:48] Dai
But I never believed it'd go
this well from the first inning.
[11:56] Dai
We've got baseball girls you can rely on!
[12:05] Txt
Mifune Baseball Park
[12:06] Ann
Batting fourth, catcher, Kabashima-san.
[12:11] Ani
All right! Bring it!
[12:19] Ani
I'm gonna go big, too.
[12:29] Ump
Strike!
[12:30] Dai
Those are hard to hit.
[12:33] Mut
He's started aiming his pitches for real.
[12:40] (Flashback) Mura
Yokouchi, remember how I stopped you
[12:43] (Flashback) Mura
from using breaking balls in
our scrimmage last week?
[12:48] (Flashback) Yok
Yes, I remember.
[12:50] (Flashback) Mura
I saw two suspicious
figures hanging around.
[12:55] (Flashback) Mura
I figured they were scouting us.
[12:58] (Flashback) Mura
Why do you think I made you
hide your true abilities?
[13:02] (Flashback) Mura
Don't hold back.
[13:06] Mura
As long as you don't throw weak pitches,
they won't be able to hit anything.
[13:12] Ani
It's goin' outside again.
[13:14] Ani
That's... what I was waitin' for!
[13:21] Ump
Strike three!
[13:22] Ump
You're out!
[13:25] Ani
It...
[13:26] Ani
It curved?!
[13:28] Dai
A-A breaking ball?!
[13:31] Ann
Batting fifth, pitcher, Sakura-san.
[13:35] Mut
Anita...
[13:37] Ani
It curved.
[13:38] Ani
That pitcher ain't all fastballs.
[13:41] Mut
No way!
[13:48] Ump
Strike!
[13:49] Nis
What the... How's it bending that much?!
[13:54] Ump
Strike two!
[13:59] Ump
Strike three! You're out!
[14:01] Ann
Batting sixth, third base, Kandori-san.
[14:06] Ani
Those were sliders.
Didn't know he could do that.
[14:12] Ani
He wasn't throwin' those when we scouted 'em.
[14:14] Ani
Guess they musta saw us after all.
[14:17] Dai
I'm glad we got three runs right out the gate.
[14:20] Dai
With those sliders in the mix,
we won't be hitting much.
[14:27] Ump
Strike! You're out!
[14:29] Ump
Three outs. Change sides!
[14:33] Anit
Whatever!
[14:36] Anit
Three runs oughta be enough to win this!
[14:38] Anit
Let's do this, Senpai!
[14:40] Mut
Right!
[15:04] Ani
All right, let's go!
[15:15] Ani
Nice ball!
[15:21] Ann
Bottom of the first.
[15:23] Ann
Batting first for Itsuki Middle School:
catcher, Hara-kun.
[15:34] Ump
Play!
[15:35] Dai
Okay, let's keep it tight!
[15:39] Ani
It's all on me to hold them off with her pitchin'.
[15:42] Ani
Time to show off my game callin'!
[15:49] Ump
Dead ball!
[15:51] Har
Awesome!
[15:53] Mut
Huh?
[15:55] Yayo
Oh, hm. Good start.
[15:57] Tao
Let's reset and go!
[16:03] Ani
What the heck?
[16:07] Yok
Hey, take your cap off when
you hit someone. Your cap!
[16:11] Yok
Don't you have any manners?
[16:13] Mut
I-I'm very sorry!
[16:15] Nis
Damn, those guys are annoying.
[16:18] Ann
Batting second, center field, Takei-kun.
[16:22] Ump
Play!
[16:24] Ani
She was fine while warmin' up.
[16:27] Ani
Is she that nervous?
[16:33] Ump
Ball!
[16:34] Yok
Yeah, nice!
[16:37] Ump
Ball two!
[16:39] Ump
Ball three!
[16:46] Ani
This is real bad.
[16:48] Ani
Control was her only strength.
What's she playin' at?
[16:51] Mut
What?
[16:52] Mut
Why isn't it going where I want it to go?
[16:57] Mut
And why's the plate so freaking far away?!
[17:08] Ump
Ball! Four balls!
[17:13] Ani
Timeout!
[17:14] Ump
Timeout!
[17:19] Ani
What's goin' on?
Ya gotta pull yerself together!
[17:22] Ani
We did so well, buildin' up a three-run lead!
[17:25] Ani
What is it? Ya nervous or somethin'?
[17:27] Mut
I-I'm sorry.
[17:29] Mut
I don't know what's going on, either.
[17:32] Yay
It's fine. Don't sweat it.
[17:33] Yay
This is our first real game.
It's natural to be nervous.
[17:37] Tao
Stop screeching, Anita.
[17:40] Ani
What?!
[17:41] Ani
I-I ain't sayin' it 'cause I'm angry!
[17:44] Ani
I'm just sayin' we gotta focus!
[17:46] Tan
Anyway, Sakura, just let them hit!
[17:49] Kan
Y-Yeah. Trust your teammates behind you.
[17:52] Dai
May I?
[17:54] Mut
Daigo?
[18:03] Mut
Wh-What are you doing?
[18:05] Dai
Hm... let's see...
[18:07] Dai
Around here, I guess?
[18:11] Dai
I'm sure you're nervous too,
[18:13] Dai
but maybe the issue with your
control is the height of the mound.
[18:20] Dai
I checked before the game.
The mound's a bit taller here.
[18:24] Ani
What?
[18:26] Dai
Pitchers are delicate, right?
[18:28] Dai
The bullpen and the mound
at our school are quite low,
[18:32] Dai
since they get used every day.
[18:35] Ump
Are you done yet? Hurry it up.
[18:37] Dai
Ah, I'm sorry!
[18:40] Dai
I've flattened it a bit, so it should
be closer to what you're used to.
[18:44] Dai
If it's not enough, dig some more.
[18:46] Mut
R-Right.
[18:47] Dai
You might get a warning
if you overdo it, though.
[18:51] Nis
Her nerves are getting to her.
[18:52] Nis
Looks like I might be up on the mound soon.
[18:59] Chi
Our captain went all the way over
to the mound from left field.
[19:03] Ann
Batting third, shortstop, Kobashi-kun.
[19:07] Ump
Play!
[19:11] Ani
The height of the mound?
[19:14] Ani
Are ya serious?
[19:29] Ump
Strike!
[19:31] Mut
It went in?
[19:37] Mut
Seriously?
[19:41] Ump
Strike!
[19:42] Kat
She's starting... to get strikes now.
[19:45] Yok
So what?
[19:46] Yok
Even if her control is on the money,
those slow-ass balls are easy to hit.
[19:52] Yok
See?
[20:00] Ump
Out!
[20:01] Ump
Yes, a double play!
[20:09] Dai
She's finally on top of her nerves.
[20:13] (Flashback) Dai
Close!
[20:24] (Flashback) Dai
A bit lower!
[20:28] (Flashback) Gor
I know, I know!
[20:31] (Flashback) Gor
Wait a sec!
[20:34] (Flashback) Dai
Uh, Pop?
[20:39] (Flashback) Gor
All right. Check this out.
[20:53] (Flashback) Dai
Nice ball!
[20:55] (Flashback) Dai
Were you adjusting the mound just now?
[20:59] (Flashback) Gor
Yeah, it was a bit higher than I'm used to.
[21:04] (Flashback) Gor
I dug down a bit where I put my pivot leg.
[21:06] (Flashback) Dai
I see. So even you care about
little things like that, huh?
[21:13] (Flashback) Gor
You numbskull.
Pitchers are delicate creatures!
[21:17] (Flashback) Gor
Listen, if your pitcher ever has
difficulties finding their groove,
[21:21] (Flashback) Gor
try checking things like this, too.
[21:25] Dai
Thanks, Pop. Your advice really helped.
[21:36] Kob
I'm sorry. I didn't get a good hit.
[21:39] Mur
What were you looking at
when you scouted this team?
[21:43] Mur
"Fuurin Middle's female pitcher
only has decent control,
[21:48] Mur
so it'll be a walk in the park"?
[21:51] Mur
You didn't even realize
you didn't get a good hit
[21:53] Mur
because she made you hit it like that.
[22:07] Ump
Out!

Huh?

Three outs! Change sides!
[22:13] Dai
Nice, Mutsuko!
[24:00] Dai
We can't hit those sliders.
[24:02] Dai
This is bad.
[24:03] Dai
We have to come up with a strategy!
[24:05] Tan
O-Oh, right.
[24:07] Dai
Tanba-san? Is something wrong?
[24:09] Tan
When I'm under pressure,
I fall apart in offense and defense.
[24:14] Tan
Are we going to lose again because of me?
[24:16] Tan
Ball, don't come my way!
[24:18] Dai
Tanba-san, please calm down!
[24:20] Dai
Next time: "Backup."
