1
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:03,440
Ball four!

2
00:00:03,860 --> 00:00:05,140
Bases loaded now.

3
00:00:05,140 --> 00:00:07,420
We still have the bottom of the ninth,

4
00:00:07,420 --> 00:00:09,690
but this is a huge chance to score.

5
00:00:10,020 --> 00:00:11,180
Roll it!

6
00:00:11,180 --> 00:00:12,950
Just roll the ball!

7
00:00:13,860 --> 00:00:15,820
Let's do this, Maezono!

8
00:00:16,260 --> 00:00:18,580
End it here cleanly, boys.

9
00:00:19,260 --> 00:00:21,460
Don't lose confidence, Maezono.

10
00:00:21,460 --> 00:00:24,580
You've been swinging well all game.

11
00:00:24,970 --> 00:00:28,840
Wait for the pitch to come to you,
then smack it hard.

12
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,340
Just go do that this inning, too.

13
00:00:33,340 --> 00:00:35,140
From zero to hero!

14
00:00:35,140 --> 00:00:38,100
The stage is set for you, buddy!

15
00:00:39,500 --> 00:00:41,420
If I was the catcher,

16
00:00:41,420 --> 00:00:45,380
I'd hate the batters
who can judge the low balls.

17
00:00:47,010 --> 00:00:50,280
The low balls are balls for a reason.

18
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,360
Just swing at the pitch you can hit.

19
00:00:53,790 --> 00:00:54,660
Yeah.

20
00:02:26,060 --> 00:02:30,650
Scenario

21
00:02:26,450 --> 00:02:31,330
Let's hit a big one here, Maezono!

22
00:02:31,730 --> 00:02:33,840
Despite the rain,

23
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:37,840
If you don't get a hit, who else will?

24
00:02:34,170 --> 00:02:37,840
they've played a very close
and exciting game.

25
00:02:38,270 --> 00:02:39,510
Yeah.

26
00:02:39,510 --> 00:02:42,180
Two outs and bases loaded
at the bottom of the eighth.

27
00:02:42,180 --> 00:02:45,220
This is the most important part of the game.

28
00:02:46,930 --> 00:02:50,230
Can Maezono get a big one
with his heavy swing?

29
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,240
Or will Mukai ot Teito
get the last laugh again?

30
00:02:57,230 --> 00:02:59,490
And here comes the first pitch.

31
00:03:03,460 --> 00:03:04,580
Ball.

32
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,400
Maezono won that one.

33
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,020
Wasn't that a screwball?

34
00:03:10,020 --> 00:03:12,430
Are they not afraid of a passed ball?

35
00:03:12,430 --> 00:03:16,590
He must have a lot of confidence
in Mukai's control.

36
00:03:16,980 --> 00:03:19,000
The strike zone has no limit.

37
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,840
Use it openly, Taiyo.

38
00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:23,840
I won't even let him touch my pitch.

39
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,360
I wait and then swing hard.

40
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:29,730
Swing hard.

41
00:03:30,330 --> 00:03:31,940
Just you try and touch it.

42
00:03:32,940 --> 00:03:34,520
I'll smack it hard.

43
00:03:35,900 --> 00:03:38,110
A slider for the second pitch!

44
00:03:38,110 --> 00:03:40,150
A strike on the way outside.

45
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,240
Nice pitch, Taiyo!

46
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,910
The batter can't react!

47
00:03:44,290 --> 00:03:45,900
Nothing to worry about!

48
00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:47,280
Let's stay focused!

49
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,420
And pitch three?

50
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,420
A fastball!

51
00:03:57,420 --> 00:03:58,770
That's it!

52
00:03:58,770 --> 00:04:00,300
Nice pitch, Taiyo!

53
00:04:00,300 --> 00:04:02,480
Come on, Maezono!

54
00:04:03,300 --> 00:04:04,870
That's the timing!

55
00:04:04,870 --> 00:04:06,180
Nice swing!

56
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,600
The low and outside.

57
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,800
Is he going for a fastball?

58
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:11,880
Yeah.

59
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,300
Maezono-kun swung for it.

60
00:04:14,300 --> 00:04:15,940
He's ready for it.

61
00:04:16,430 --> 00:04:18,850
But the count's 1-2 now.

62
00:04:19,340 --> 00:04:21,440
He's cornered.

63
00:04:26,910 --> 00:04:30,120
Will Mukai-kun come to end it
with the fourth pitch?

64
00:04:31,490 --> 00:04:33,330
He's gonna pitch a low one here.

65
00:04:36,690 --> 00:04:37,790
Ball!

66
00:04:37,790 --> 00:04:40,500
Hey, he saw that one coming!

67
00:04:40,500 --> 00:04:43,010
That's how you do it!

68
00:04:43,630 --> 00:04:45,760
He's only pitching to the outside.

69
00:04:46,190 --> 00:04:48,160
The count's 2-2 now.

70
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,140
What's next?

71
00:04:50,580 --> 00:04:54,210
I doubt they want to go to 3-2.

72
00:04:57,790 --> 00:04:59,150
It's game over...

73
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:00,770
...with this!

74
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:16,900
He tapped it!

75
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:18,420
Barely a foul!

76
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,460
That was close!

77
00:05:21,460 --> 00:05:23,300
That was just barely in the zone!

78
00:05:23,740 --> 00:05:25,800
If he hadn't swung,
he would've been struck out!

79
00:05:26,890 --> 00:05:27,900
Damn.

80
00:05:28,340 --> 00:05:29,910
Don't be a pain.

81
00:05:29,910 --> 00:05:31,220
You're supposed to be easy.

82
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,310
I'm getting nervous from just watching.

83
00:05:37,840 --> 00:05:40,660
I'm sure they wanted to
finish with that pitch.

84
00:05:41,810 --> 00:05:43,790
The count's 2-2.

85
00:05:43,790 --> 00:05:45,570
They've only pitched outside so far.

86
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:51,080
They have an extra pitch,
so pitching inside here could be good.

87
00:05:51,490 --> 00:05:56,080
But they'd have to be careful
not to hit the batter.

88
00:05:56,590 --> 00:06:01,710
It's something they couldn't pitch
without confidence and trust.

89
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,470
No hesitation?

90
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,720
This pitch will only be a foul.

91
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,320
Use this to distract him.

92
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,610
Then finish him with an outside.

93
00:06:18,460 --> 00:06:20,350
What a fearsome battery.

94
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,390
They can read each other's minds.

95
00:06:24,390 --> 00:06:27,240
They both see the same picture
of getting the out.

96
00:06:27,970 --> 00:06:29,610
Swing like you practice.

97
00:06:30,150 --> 00:06:31,370
Be confident.

98
00:06:32,280 --> 00:06:34,290
Wait, then swing hard.

99
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,090
No matter how much you struggle,

100
00:06:38,090 --> 00:06:40,320
it's game over with the next pitch.

101
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,250
Swing hard!

102
00:06:43,990 --> 00:06:45,750
I can already see...

103
00:06:48,530 --> 00:06:50,010
...the end!

104
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:13,700
Wait a minute.

105
00:07:14,410 --> 00:07:16,790
That wasn't the finishing pitch.

106
00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:20,500
It's fine.

107
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:21,790
It's a foul.

108
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,170
Right up left field!

109
00:07:28,590 --> 00:07:30,170
Kuramochi's heading for home!

110
00:07:30,170 --> 00:07:31,490
Let's go!

111
00:07:31,490 --> 00:07:33,180
They're taking time with the ball!

112
00:07:33,180 --> 00:07:34,930
Come home, Harucchi!

113
00:07:34,930 --> 00:07:36,260
Run!

114
00:07:36,810 --> 00:07:38,180
Three runs!

115
00:07:39,500 --> 00:07:40,810
Nice one, Zono!

116
00:07:40,810 --> 00:07:42,880
Bringing all the runners home!

117
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,810
Zono's going for third!

118
00:07:46,450 --> 00:07:47,540
Out!

119
00:07:52,700 --> 00:07:54,470
You got way too excited!

120
00:07:54,470 --> 00:07:56,360
You were tripping!

121
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:57,460
Sorry.

122
00:07:58,500 --> 00:08:01,280
Seido got three runs this inning.

123
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,830
They turned the game around at the end.

124
00:08:04,330 --> 00:08:09,410
Maezono-kun hit that difficult
inside pitch very cleanly.

125
00:08:09,410 --> 00:08:12,100
He was focused on hitting toward the right.

126
00:08:12,100 --> 00:08:15,340
That's why it didn't go foul.

127
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,350
In any case,

128
00:08:17,930 --> 00:08:20,850
that inside was a little
lenient for Mukai-kun.

129
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,370
T-Taiyo...

130
00:08:24,190 --> 00:08:28,530
One bad pitch ruins a game of great pitches.

131
00:08:29,540 --> 00:08:32,010
You can't do anything
about the points you give up.

132
00:08:32,300 --> 00:08:34,360
Raise your head. Damn it!

133
00:08:36,070 --> 00:08:40,610
With just one pitch,
now they have to chance to win.

134
00:08:40,610 --> 00:08:41,720
Yeah.

135
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,360
That's baseball.

136
00:08:44,150 --> 00:08:46,300
The scenario was perfect.

137
00:08:46,850 --> 00:08:50,380
But he had to throw a harsh inside pitch.

138
00:08:52,890 --> 00:08:56,970
Perhaps he was thinking too much
about finishing on the outside,

139
00:08:57,490 --> 00:09:00,640
and that led to a slightly
lenient inside pitch.

140
00:09:04,980 --> 00:09:07,690
Fall Tokyo High School Baseball Tournament

141
00:09:04,980 --> 00:09:07,690
Teito
Seido

142
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,120
Third!

143
00:09:28,250 --> 00:09:30,080
An error!

144
00:09:30,580 --> 00:09:33,510
Kawakami-kun's here for the last inning,

145
00:09:33,810 --> 00:09:36,120
but he's struggling to get the last out.

146
00:09:37,110 --> 00:09:38,120
Time out, please.

147
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,680
They've given up a run,
but it's still two outs, bases loaded.

148
00:09:43,070 --> 00:09:46,060
It's the ultimate test
of who deserves to win.

149
00:09:46,060 --> 00:09:48,000
Nori-senpai! Two outs!

150
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,520
Let's stay calm!

151
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,520
Ka-Kawakami!

152
00:09:53,170 --> 00:09:54,420
Don't worry.

153
00:09:54,420 --> 00:09:56,080
Your pitch looks good.

154
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:57,400
Let's pitch some strikes.

155
00:09:57,890 --> 00:09:59,760
Just throw to the closest base.

156
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,910
Let's stay calm.

157
00:10:01,250 --> 00:10:02,800
Let's get the next out.

158
00:10:18,030 --> 00:10:20,510
He looks devasted.

159
00:10:20,510 --> 00:10:22,100
We can't win like...

160
00:10:24,070 --> 00:10:25,050
Nori.

161
00:10:27,010 --> 00:10:28,060
Look behind you.

162
00:10:32,930 --> 00:10:35,070
No, the sky.

163
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:57,410
See?

164
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,500
We were so cornered that we didn't
even notice this beautiful scene.

165
00:11:08,490 --> 00:11:10,900
Let's do what we've practiced,

166
00:11:10,900 --> 00:11:12,150
and make this game

167
00:11:12,740 --> 00:11:13,880
ours!

168
00:11:14,650 --> 00:11:17,030
Don't be passive! Be aggressive!

169
00:11:21,690 --> 00:11:24,260
He looks revitalized.

170
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,360
Out!

171
00:11:35,140 --> 00:11:36,480
Game set!

172
00:11:37,210 --> 00:11:39,360
Game set!

173
00:11:41,010 --> 00:11:45,680
In the end, the weather favored them.

174
00:11:47,470 --> 00:11:49,100
Yeah!

175
00:11:49,100 --> 00:11:50,500
2-3!

176
00:11:50,500 --> 00:11:52,230
Seido turned it around in the end!

177
00:11:52,230 --> 00:11:54,210
What a close game!

178
00:11:54,210 --> 00:11:56,230
What an intense pitchers' game!

179
00:11:56,230 --> 00:12:00,110
Seido won the battle of the big schools!

180
00:12:00,470 --> 00:12:01,610
Good game!

181
00:12:03,110 --> 00:12:04,110
Are you serious?

182
00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:09,120
The East Tokyo summer champions
disappeared in the first round!

183
00:12:12,010 --> 00:12:14,210
I don't think I underestimated him.

184
00:12:14,660 --> 00:12:16,170
Even that pitch was...

185
00:12:20,290 --> 00:12:22,340
It looks like we'll have a long off-season.

186
00:12:23,950 --> 00:12:25,720
It'll go by quickly,

187
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,090
if we work on what we need.

188
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:30,470
I need to get better.

189
00:12:31,350 --> 00:12:34,160
I need more power to outpitch the batters.

190
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,830
I need more tactics to toy with the batters.

191
00:12:37,980 --> 00:12:40,390
We'll have to practice a lot.

192
00:12:40,390 --> 00:12:41,520
Yeah.

193
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,710
I need to really focus for the summer.

194
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,050
Yeah!

195
00:12:47,050 --> 00:12:50,860
In the end, Maezono
made the winning play.

196
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,380
Did you expect him to hit?

197
00:12:53,380 --> 00:12:54,250
Nope.

198
00:12:54,630 --> 00:12:56,750
The relief in the sixth inning
was a surprise, too.

199
00:12:57,370 --> 00:13:00,000
I couldn't believe Furuya got benched.

200
00:13:00,630 --> 00:13:01,650
Let's go home.

201
00:13:00,740 --> 00:13:05,620
Sawamura and Maezono
both performed well.

202
00:13:01,650 --> 00:13:04,590
K-K-K-Kawakami! Nice pitch!

203
00:13:05,620 --> 00:13:08,760
So Coach Kataoka really
made good calls today.

204
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,190
The batting lineup isn't topnotch yet,

205
00:13:12,190 --> 00:13:15,220
but this win should
give them some momentum.

206
00:13:20,230 --> 00:13:21,270
It's decided.

207
00:13:22,560 --> 00:13:23,820
Yeah.

208
00:13:23,820 --> 00:13:26,290
Teito put up a good fight, but...

209
00:13:26,290 --> 00:13:27,410
The school I'm going to...

210
00:13:29,730 --> 00:13:31,280
I'm going to Seido.

211
00:13:32,090 --> 00:13:36,550
I was kind of thinking about going
to the school that won this game.

212
00:13:36,550 --> 00:13:38,370
Just kind of?

213
00:13:38,370 --> 00:13:40,670
Yeah, kind of.

214
00:13:41,250 --> 00:13:43,010
But I think it's the right choice.

215
00:13:43,010 --> 00:13:45,920
They have two interesting pitchers.

216
00:13:47,170 --> 00:13:48,230
Koshu.

217
00:13:49,260 --> 00:13:52,280
You should've told me if that was
what you were thinking!

218
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,350
I could've enjoyed the game more, too!

219
00:13:55,650 --> 00:13:56,630
Yeah.

220
00:13:56,630 --> 00:13:57,900
Yeah, Seido.

221
00:13:57,900 --> 00:13:59,810
Three runs in the bottom of the eighth.

222
00:13:59,810 --> 00:14:02,560
No, Maezono really got the hit.

223
00:14:05,420 --> 00:14:10,150
Coach Okamoto, did you not think
about relieving the pitcher today?

224
00:14:11,420 --> 00:14:13,860
Well, I had a reliever ready,

225
00:14:13,860 --> 00:14:16,580
but I felt that keeping Taiyo in
was the right decision.

226
00:14:17,740 --> 00:14:22,180
If you want to raise an ace,
you've gotta have faith.

227
00:14:23,940 --> 00:14:25,630
Words of wisdom.

228
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,680
But you can't lose!

229
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:28,630
No, you can't!

230
00:14:29,470 --> 00:14:33,650
Then what do you think about
Seido's ace, Furuya-kun,

231
00:14:33,650 --> 00:14:35,390
being benched so early in the game?

232
00:14:36,020 --> 00:14:39,140
Well, it depends on the team.

233
00:14:39,210 --> 00:14:47,530
Edogawa City Stadium

234
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,040
I thought it was a tough call at the time,

235
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,530
but we couldn't take down
their southpaw who came out next.

236
00:14:48,100 --> 00:14:52,690
I'm sure Kataoka-kun wants
those two to compete as rivals.

237
00:14:52,980 --> 00:14:58,340
Why am I talking about
the winning coach's calls?

238
00:14:58,340 --> 00:14:59,590
I'm sorry.

239
00:14:59,590 --> 00:15:00,670
I was curious.

240
00:15:01,140 --> 00:15:04,350
The sun came out
right before the game ended.

241
00:15:04,350 --> 00:15:05,230
Thank you!

242
00:15:05,230 --> 00:15:06,420
It wasn't a compliment.

243
00:15:15,970 --> 00:15:21,520
Seido Spirit Dorm

244
00:15:16,850 --> 00:15:19,790
Remember Zono's face right then?

245
00:15:19,790 --> 00:15:21,520
You're so unreliable.

246
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:22,640
Shut up!

247
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,350
You hit big but got
easily taken out at third.

248
00:15:26,350 --> 00:15:28,150
I'm surprised you actually hit.

249
00:15:29,180 --> 00:15:30,910
Kominato, let's go.

250
00:15:31,450 --> 00:15:32,340
Yes, sir.

251
00:15:32,590 --> 00:15:34,530
You're starting right now?

252
00:15:35,850 --> 00:15:39,170
I don't want to forget what I felt today.

253
00:15:39,170 --> 00:15:42,790
I've gotta beat it into my body before I forget.

254
00:15:45,030 --> 00:15:47,330
He already swings every night.

255
00:15:47,330 --> 00:15:49,460
He practices way too much.

256
00:15:49,830 --> 00:15:52,470
Maezono-san looks so admirable.

257
00:15:53,060 --> 00:15:54,560
Let's go swing some, too.

258
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,850
Yeah, I can't lose.

259
00:15:58,180 --> 00:15:59,520
Hey, Miyuki.

260
00:16:00,940 --> 00:16:03,600
Furuya's still running on the field.

261
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,520
Should I go stop him?

262
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,650
Just let him run all he wants.

263
00:16:09,750 --> 00:16:13,300
I bet he's never walked off
the mound like that.

264
00:16:13,300 --> 00:16:15,570
So I need him get really upset over it.

265
00:16:16,620 --> 00:16:20,180
And if he'll start listening
to me more, even better.

266
00:16:20,180 --> 00:16:21,490
So that's what you're after!

267
00:16:21,490 --> 00:16:23,380
You heartless fiend!

268
00:16:25,550 --> 00:16:29,610
We should've been more careful, too,

269
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,340
but compared to before the pause,

270
00:16:33,180 --> 00:16:35,390
he was like a different person.

271
00:16:36,270 --> 00:16:37,820
I guess in that sense,

272
00:16:37,820 --> 00:16:40,760
we learned a lot this game.

273
00:16:41,210 --> 00:16:43,230
Though it wouldn't have
mattered if we'd lost.

274
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,860
But if Kawakami gave them
the winning runs in the end...

275
00:16:47,860 --> 00:16:51,200
Yeah, I can't even begin to fathom
how he'd be right now.

276
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,030
We won in the end, so who cares?

277
00:16:56,340 --> 00:16:59,910
Fall Tournament Game 1
You haven't returned any of my emails lately!
And wait... You pitched today?
Is this your first game since summer?
But I can't really imagine you pitching to the outside so much.

278
00:16:56,730 --> 00:16:59,910
You haven't returned
any of my emails lately!

279
00:17:00,390 --> 00:17:02,540
And wait... You pitched today?

280
00:17:03,140 --> 00:17:06,010
Is this your first game since summer?

281
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:12,180
But I can't really imagine
you pitching to the outside so much.

282
00:17:12,180 --> 00:17:13,550
Shut up.

283
00:17:13,910 --> 00:17:17,760
I wish you could've seen it.

284
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,560
In the rain,

285
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,560
Hey, don't think out loud.

286
00:17:20,930 --> 00:17:26,000
I gave them a piece of my

287
00:17:21,330 --> 00:17:24,640
I want to turn that smile upside down.

288
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,600
But he did pitch
really well as a reliever today.

289
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,190
ultra super deluxe pitch...

290
00:17:31,290 --> 00:17:33,140
So that's your next step.

291
00:17:33,570 --> 00:17:37,620
We're all excited to see
how much you've improved.

292
00:17:38,140 --> 00:17:40,600
By the way, our season's already over.

293
00:17:43,550 --> 00:17:45,410
I was able to pitch again.

294
00:17:45,410 --> 00:17:48,190
I was able to stand on the mound again.

295
00:17:48,190 --> 00:17:50,930
I was able to hold them off
with just outsides.

296
00:17:53,130 --> 00:17:58,570
If I can learn to pitch insides,
too, then I'll...

297
00:18:03,120 --> 00:18:05,060
I'm getting super hyped all of a sudden!

298
00:18:05,490 --> 00:18:08,310
I'm surprised you've got time to be emailing.

299
00:18:10,290 --> 00:18:12,160
Furuya's still running.

300
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:12,970
What?!

301
00:18:12,970 --> 00:18:14,080
Is it Wakana?

302
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:15,920
Is it an email from Wakana?

303
00:18:16,770 --> 00:18:19,230
What a nice game today.

304
00:18:19,230 --> 00:18:21,320
Although it was close until the end.

305
00:18:21,810 --> 00:18:24,130
Maezono got a hit today, too.

306
00:18:24,130 --> 00:18:27,210
I think that'll help the team get going.

307
00:18:27,610 --> 00:18:31,520
He did a really nice job
hitting that inside pitch.

308
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,590
It was like he instinctively reacted
rather than trying to hit it.

309
00:18:36,070 --> 00:18:40,220
He swings the bat more than
anyone else on the team right now.

310
00:18:40,740 --> 00:18:44,470
I'm sure it boosted everyone's morale,

311
00:18:44,910 --> 00:18:46,600
even if they're not on the first string.

312
00:18:47,150 --> 00:18:50,300
They were all on the bleachers in the summer.

313
00:18:50,300 --> 00:18:53,860
I'm sure people have mixed
feelings about his success.

314
00:18:54,500 --> 00:18:57,110
The subs don't need to get better.

315
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,070
Can I ask you a question?

316
00:19:00,690 --> 00:19:02,880
About the relief in the sixth inning.

317
00:19:03,990 --> 00:19:08,630
Pulling Furuya out there
quickly was, I guess,

318
00:19:08,630 --> 00:19:11,500
the right decision, ultimately.

319
00:19:12,870 --> 00:19:15,630
But why Sawamura?

320
00:19:17,380 --> 00:19:20,160
Kawakami is more consistent than Sawamura,

321
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,260
and Sawamura is crippled with the yips.

322
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,010
C-Crippled?

323
00:19:26,420 --> 00:19:28,030
Because of his attitude.

324
00:19:28,980 --> 00:19:33,150
At that point, Sawamura was
the only one who was ready,

325
00:19:33,710 --> 00:19:36,730
and he was ready to pitch to his strengths,

326
00:19:36,970 --> 00:19:41,030
even against an opponent like Teito.

327
00:19:44,100 --> 00:19:46,050
That's it?

328
00:19:46,050 --> 00:19:51,160
The fact that Teito expected him
to pitch insides was in our favor,

329
00:19:51,930 --> 00:19:54,530
but he unexpectedly pitched
until the end of the eighth inning.

330
00:19:54,930 --> 00:19:57,840
The fact that he was able to do that

331
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,920
was great for the team.

332
00:20:02,730 --> 00:20:04,010
For the team?

333
00:20:04,850 --> 00:20:06,010
Yes.

334
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:11,200
There's a limit to how much
a person can improve on his own.

335
00:20:21,360 --> 00:20:25,620
He did that when he was basically crippled.

336
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,940
I am the king of running!

337
00:20:32,940 --> 00:20:35,420
Rivals acknowledge each other,

338
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,300
and compete to get better.

339
00:20:39,770 --> 00:20:42,630
That's why they can train so hard.

340
00:20:42,980 --> 00:20:45,680
That's why they continue to improve.

341
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,050
And

342
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:53,120
they will always far exceed
our expectations.

343
00:20:58,120 --> 00:21:02,740
I won't sacrifice the team
just for Furuya alone.

344
00:21:03,460 --> 00:21:07,980
When the team grows as a whole,
the players strive to improve.

345
00:21:07,980 --> 00:21:11,700
This is something I learned
from the previous team.

346
00:21:17,330 --> 00:21:19,010
Coach Kataoka.

347
00:21:20,210 --> 00:21:23,090
If we win the next one,
we'll get to play Inashiro!

348
00:21:23,090 --> 00:21:25,800
The players want revenge!

349
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,970
Let's give them a run for their money!

350
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:34,290
So he wants to make a team that
will improve with every game.

351
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,760
I was curious as to how
he'd play against Teito,

352
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,100
but now I see.

353
00:21:43,360 --> 00:21:46,820
The players aren't the only ones improving.

354
00:21:51,890 --> 00:21:55,570
I need to start promoting myself soon,

355
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,700
or I might be in trouble.

356
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,050
If you win the next one,
you'll play Inashiro, right?

357
00:23:34,050 --> 00:23:35,460
Destroy them!

358
00:23:35,460 --> 00:23:36,740
I'll allow it.

359
00:23:36,740 --> 00:23:39,350
We're excited to pay back
Inashiro for summer,

360
00:23:39,350 --> 00:23:42,610
but something's stirring up
inside the team.

361
00:23:42,610 --> 00:23:46,310
If you want to quit,
