[00:12] Souichirou
    Incredible.
[00:16] Nishimura's Dad
    Who is that?
[00:19] Nishimura
    Huh?
[00:20] Nishimura
    That's Touma Tachibana.

[00:49] Nishimura's Dad
    Who...
[00:56] Nishimura's Dad
    ...is that?
[00:58] Nishimura
    I just told you. It's Touma Tachibana.
[01:17] Umpire
    Out!
[01:29] Touma
    That last pitch was the best one, right?
[01:32] Souichirou
    Did you change something on purpose?
[01:37] Touma
    I just did my usual thing.
[01:39] Touma
    My speed felt about the same.
[01:42] Touma
    Was something weird?
[01:43] Souichirou
    Oh, well, I just thought the spin rate on
    your fastball had increased a little bit.
[01:49] Touma
    Is that good?
[01:50] Souichirou
    Of course.
[01:53] Touma
    Oh. Neat.
[01:59] Souichirou
    I was lying, idiot.
[02:04] Souichirou
    It was more than a little bit.

[03:42] Colorcaster
    Those three quick outs have
    got the stadium going wild.
[03:46] Colorcaster
    Seinan's batting average is
    every bit as good as Kenjo's,
[03:51] Colorcaster
    but the only contact anyone made
    was with the slow-curve at the end.

[03:58] Colorcaster
    The fastballs they couldn't get
    a piece of were all over 150 kph.
[04:02] Colorcaster
    In his first appearance of the day,
    Meisei High's ace Touma Tachibana
[04:07] Colorcaster
    completely dominates the mound.
[04:10] Nishimura
    Boy, it's noisy in here.
[04:13] Tadokoro
    Let's just take it back
    to the center of the ring.
[04:16] Tadokoro
    Losing on the first face-off makes it
    harder against an opponent like this.
[04:20] Nishimura
    Could you stop comparing
    everything to sumo wrestling?
[04:25] Tadokoro
    My point is, it's time to make
    some noise of your own.
[04:30] Tadokoro
    Tiger.
[04:32] Nishimura
    Who are you calling "Tiger"?
[04:36] Colorcaster
    It's the bottom of the first,
    and first up to the plate for Meisei...
[04:40] Colorcaster
    is their center fielder, Akai.
[04:44] Colorcaster
    Nishimura begins his windup.

[05:00] Ooyama
    Huh?
[05:03] Colorcaster
    Nishimura makes a
    statement with his fastball.
[05:09] Colorcaster
    And that one also comes in over 150 kph.
[05:41] Colorcaster
    I-Incredible. More dominant
    pitching from Seinan's Nishimura.
[05:46] Colorcaster
    The crowd is roaring.
SIGN    Seinan
SIGN    Meisei
SIGN    1st

SIGN    3rd
[05:48] Colorcaster
    Meisei's time at the plate is an
    action replay of the top of the inning.
[05:53] Colorcaster
    What a way to start the second match of
    the East Tokyo Championship semifinals!
[05:59] Touma
    Seriously, were you in on that?
[06:02] Touma
    It was a total match.
[06:06] Souichirou
    It was what I expected.
[06:14] Souichirou
    Including him throwing a curve.
[06:21] Souichirou
    I just didn't know his curve was that good.
[06:25] Touma
    Oh, yeah?
[06:32] Yoshiko
    I never knew he was that awesome a pitcher.
[06:41] Yoshiko
    Otomi?
[06:43] Otomi
    Yeah?
[06:45] Yoshiko
    You looking for someone?
[06:48] Otomi
    Yeah. Dad left home without his phone.
[06:55] (Flashback) Mayumi
    Oh?
[06:59] (Flashback) Mayumi
    Your father forgot his cell phone.
[07:03] (Flashback) Mayumi
    Give it to him if you find him
    at the ballpark, would you?
[07:07] Yoshiko
    You won't find him in a crowd like this.
[07:15] Otomi
    Yeah. Let's focus on the match.
[07:25] Colorcaster
    Wasn't the pitching from both teams in
    the first inning incredible, Mr. Omoteura?
[07:33] Hyouri
    I tell you every year. It might be
    written as "Omoteura," but it's "Hyouri."
[07:37] Colorcaster
    Oh, please excuse me.
[07:40] Hyouri
    Still, leaving Tachibana aside, it's a
    surprise to see Nishimura north of 150 kph.
[07:47] Colorcaster
    We definitely had an image of him
     as a breaking ball pitcher.
[07:52] Hyouri
    Of course, they can't keep
    this kind of pitching up forever.

[07:59] Hyouri
    Baseball is nine innings.
     They've got a long way to go.
[08:03] Hyouri
    Getting 27 outs isn't easy.
[08:06] Hyouri
    It's important to apply the gas and brakes
    as needed, and not get carried away.
[08:12] Hyouri
    Stepping on the gas the
    whole time leads to accidents.
[08:15] Hyouri
    Momentary caution ensures a long life.
[08:17] Hyouri
    Haste makes waste.
[08:19] Hyouri
    Gargle, wash your hands, mask up,
    avoid the Three Cs, and ventilate.
[08:23] Hyouri
    Raise the red, lower the white!
[08:26] Colorcaster
    I think you lost the thread a little.
[08:28] Colorcaster
    Anyway, we're past three innings now.
SIGN    Seinan
SIGN    Meisei
SIGN    1st
SIGN    2nd
SIGN    3rd
SIGN    4th
[08:31] Colorcaster
    Both sides continue to pitch perfect innings.
[08:36] Hyouri
    Huh?
[08:42] Colorcaster
    The match started at 11:30,
[08:46] Colorcaster
    and as both teams have failed
    to get a runner on base,
[08:49] Colorcaster
    we've reached the fourth
    inning in under 30 minutes.
SIGN    Seinan
SIGN    Meisei

[08:54] Colorcaster
    Naturally, we've cycled through
    both orders, and we're back to the top.
SIGN    Mitsuya
[08:58] Colorcaster
    Seinan's lineup gets its second go through.
[09:03] Colorcaster
    But...
[09:22] Colorcaster
    Just getting a piece of it
    leads to big cheers.
[09:27] Mitsuya
    The ball's drifting high.
[09:32] Mitsuya
    Ah, sorry.
[09:35] Mitsuya
    Just making an excuse for my strikeouts.
[09:40] Nishimura's Dad
    Trust your eyes.
[09:49] Nishimura's Dad
    In my time, I've seen a few high school
     pitchers seemingly transform overnight...
[09:59] Colorcaster
    Another strikeout. That's his ninth today.
[10:05] Nishimura's Dad
    But I've never seen a transformation
    as drastic as this before.
[10:10] Colorcaster
    Touma Tachibana's not letting
    anyone get a foot in the door today.
[10:15] Tadokoro
    There's one other.
[10:19] Tadokoro
    Another pitcher who has transformed...

[10:28] Colorcaster
    And in the bottom of the fourth,
[10:29] Colorcaster
    Meisei's back at the top of their
    order with center fielder, Akai.
[10:46] Seinan Team A
    That's a good expression.
[10:52] Seinan Team A
    Oh, I'm not suggesting
     he's handsome or anything.
[10:56] Nishimura's Dad
    You didn't need to clarify.
[11:00] Seinan Team A
    I haven't ever seen Nishimura
    that happy while pitching before.
[11:07] Nishimura's Dad
    Really?
[11:09] Nishimura's Dad
    I have.
[12:04] Umpire
    Foul!
SIGN    Tachibana S
[12:22] Umpire
    Strike!
[12:37] Colorcaster
    Struck him out.
    His ninth of the day, too.
[12:40] Nishimura
    Yeah!
[12:43] Colorcaster
    Nishimura strikes a power pose on the mound.

[13:41] Mayumi
    You haven't given the phone
     to your father yet?
[13:45] Otomi
    I can't go looking for Dad
    right now. I don't have time.
[13:50] Otomi
    Need something?
[13:53] Mayumi
    I was wondering what he wanted for dinner.
[13:57] Otomi
    Bah!
[13:59] Otomi
    Honestly.
[14:02] Touma
    Haven't seen you strike out in a while.
[14:08] Touma
    Look, I get it. You don't have to say it.
[14:12] Touma
    "I only swung at two."
[14:15] Touma
    "That second one was a ball's width outside.
    It shouldn't have counted as a strike."
[14:22] Souichirou
    I'm surprised.
[14:25] Touma
    Right?
[14:26] Touma
    I can read everybody's thoughts today.
[14:31] Touma
    I'm even scaring myself.
[14:33] Touma
    No one's getting a hit off me today!
[14:42] Souichirou
    Whatever.
[14:44] Souichirou
    I really did just strike out, though.
SIGN    Kenjo High School
[14:57] Colorcaster
    No action there. Another inning
    with three up, three down.
[15:01] Colorcaster
    We haven't had a single man on base.
[15:04] Colorcaster
    So far today, both pitchers
    have faced the minimum.
[15:09] Colorcaster
    Here in the second semi of the East Tokyo
    Championship, the fifth inning has ended.

[15:14] Colorcaster
    Meisei's ace, Tachibana,
    and Seinan's ace, Nishimura,
[15:17] Colorcaster
    remain perfect through five
    here in Jingu Stadium.
[15:24] Komiyama
    I was expecting a pitchers' duel,
[15:28] Komiyama
    but I didn't expect them
    both to do their career best.
[15:32] Komiyama
    They're pitching in a way that
    invalidates all of our data so far.
[15:36] Tomohito
    It's a rather abnormal match.
[15:40] Yamaji
    Darn straight.
     They're both perfect through five.
[15:46] Tomohito
    Well...
[15:50] Tomohito
    That's not what I meant.
[16:18] Haruka
    Strikeout number...
[16:20] Haruka
    Thirteen?!
[16:25] Colorcaster
    Fourteen!
[16:33] Touma
    Yup, yup, yup.
[16:37] Souichirou
    It's perfect.
[16:40] Ooyama
    R-Right.
[16:42] Ooyama
    Of course it is! Perfect, indeed!
[16:46] Souichirou
    Every ball has gone
    where he meant it to go.
[16:49] Souichirou
    I haven't moved my mitt
    once after putting it up.
[16:55] Ooyama
    You're awfully calm, given that.
[16:59] Souichirou
    I always thought one minor
    change could result in this.
[17:05] Souichirou
    We might just see
     a perfect game here today.
[17:12] Souichirou
    The only question is,
    which team will pitch it?
[17:16] Ooyama
    Hey now...
[17:20] Nishimura
    Fourteen strikeouts?
[17:24] Nishimura
    How many do I have again?
[17:27] Tadokoro
    Ten.
[17:28] Nishimura
    Damn.
[17:30] Nishimura
    Even if I strike out the side
    this inning, I can't draw level.
[17:33] Tadokoro
    C'mon now. Victory isn't
    determined by how many slaps land.
[17:38] Tadokoro
    You guys are grappling
     in the ring right now.
[17:40] Tadokoro
    Lower your hips and stand strong.
[17:43] Nishimura
    Huh?
[17:44] Nishimura
    Not sure I followed that, stable master.
SIGN    Nangou
SIGN    Tachibana T
SIGN    Koma
SIGN    Nishiki
[17:57] Nishimura
    No one's getting a hit off me.
[17:59] Nishimura
    There's the power of my low fastballs...
[18:05] Nishimura
    And...
[18:20] Nishimura
    ...the break on my secondary pitches
    even the catcher can't grab.
[18:23] Koma
    Zoom, zoom.
[18:26] Colorcaster
    I-Incredible.
[18:28] Colorcaster
    The first runner on base for either team
    is Kousaku Koma, Meisei's 7-hole,
[18:33] Colorcaster
    off an uncaught third strike.
[18:35] Koma
    Winner.
[18:37] Timon D
    An uncaught third strike!
[18:38] Timon D
    Hey, great work!
[18:42] Tadokoro
    Sorry, Nishimura.
[18:44] Nishimura
    An uncaught... third strike?
[18:48] Tadokoro
    I didn't expect a pitch
    that fast to break like that.
[18:52] Nishimura
    Does that mean there's a chance
    I can get four strikeouts this inning?
[19:00] Nishimura
    Heck yeah!
[19:01] Nishimura
    I'm gonna win this grapple!
[19:06] Colorcaster
    Nishiki, batting eighth,
    with a sacrifice bunt.
[19:10] Nishimura
    Damn it.
[19:12] Colorcaster
    Nishimura rushes out.
[19:13] Colorcaster
    He grabs it and throws to second.
[19:15] 2nd Base Ump
    Out!
[19:16] Colorcaster
    Then, to first.
[19:18] 1st Base Ump
    Out!
[19:18] Colorcaster
    It's there in time. A double play!
[19:25] Colorcaster
    Excellent fielding from Nishimura.
[19:34] Colorcaster
    Two outs, no runners. And...
[19:40] Colorcaster
    ...strikeout number twelve!
[19:46] Nishimura
    Damn.
[19:47] Nishimura
    I sat them down in order anyway,
[19:50] Nishimura
    so can they just say
    my perfect game is still alive?
