1-3: clamor
4: Hahaaaah! Man, do you know how scared you got us?!
5: Ahahaha! Ahahahahahaaaa!
6: Woahhh, did you see that hit?!
7: Did you see that?!
8: Dammit! That should have ended everything.
9: Don't mind it.
10: Sorry, Kawakami.
11: I can't believe it, they came back to life twice!
12: Well, either way you look at it, it just means that "game set" has been held off until
we send one more person out.
13: Don't mind it.
14: Okay.
15: These things happen sometimes...
Vol. 202 - Can you hear the Hiratsuka Call?

119)
1: Should we call it luck, or a miracle? A miracle, maybe.
2: Just before the game was set, a single fluke kept them hanging on.
3: If they win with that, it really will be a miracle.
4: No, no, look! He's finally coming out.
5: The guy with 27 strikeouts?
6: Well, these are the exact types of situations were he ends up being useful...probably.
7: Ku ku...
8: Right? Right, Yoshi-san?!
9: Who knows.
10: I sure don't.
11: Ahahahaha!
12: Except...that crappy hit just now was certainly a miracle called up by the tenacity
of Nikogaku.
13: But that means we must also ask ourselves...

120)
1: Are miracles the kind of thing that happen one after another?
2: Futagogawa Academy is changing its player!
3: In exchange for #9, Imaoka-kun, is
4: Hiratsuka-kun!
5: Yeaaaaaaaah!
6: #9, second baser, Hiratsuka-kun!
7: Ohhhhh?!
8: What?!
9: Uniform number 10!

121)
1: That's it?!
2: There was no point to that!
3: Are you sure you're gonna be alright out there?!
4: And what was that hypnosis about before!? Hypnosis!?!?
5: Shut up.

122)
1: Nnn...
2: I can hit it! I can hit it! I can hit it! I can hit it!
3: STOOOOOOP!
4: What's that guy playing around for?
5: Kawakamiii! Make him strike out!
6: Can this clown!
7: Do you know what kind of a situation you're in?!
8: This is our last chance!
9: Get ahold of...
10: This may just be his way to relax.
11: Wh...what?!
12-14: One more!

123)
1-2: One more!
3: I...it's started again...
4: But it's alright...Hiratsuka will do something for us...
5: Hiratsuka has to...
6: Hiratsuka!
7: Shut up, let me concentrate!
8-10: One more!
11: No matter how confident Hiratsuka may be, this is the final stage that will decide the
match....
12: He's got to be nervous...

124)
1: Can you hear it, Hiratsuka?
2: One more!
3: Huh?!
4: One more!
5: This huge Hiratsuka Call!
6: Huh?
7-9: One more!
10: All you need to do is hit the ball, and it's sayonara!
11: That's what they're saying.
12: Wha...
13-16: One more!

125)
1: ...no, it sounds like!
2: Hiiiratsuka!
3: ratsuka!
4-5: Hiratsuka!
6: Ohh...
7-8: Hiratsuka!
9: Ohhhh...
10: What do you mean, "Ohhh"...?
11: Eh...
12: Ohhhhhhhhh

126)
1: Play!
2: Alright, here it comes!
3: That's it! Just one more!
4-5: One more!
6: I can hear it...
7-8: One more!
9: The huge cheers, all for me...
10: Kawakami...so this guy is Kawakami...
11: Bastard's got some big ears on him.
12: Fool!
13: You think they're cheering for you, don't you?
14: One more!
15: But all these cheers are toward me...
16: One more!

127)
1: Cheers calling for my sayonara!
2: The first ball! Send the first ball flying!
3: To the left stands!!

128)
1: Eyaaaah
2: Striiiike!
3: Ahhh...
4: Gyahahaha! He's no good!
5: Are his eyes even open?
6: Hiratsuka...
7: Hiratsukaaaaaaa!
8: Kuh...

129)
1: We've worked so hard all this time just to connect it to Hiratsuka...
2: I felt, though, that even if we suddenly connected it to him like that, that probably
nothing would happen.
3: It's true that if it comes straight to his face, his wild defensive instincts give him
the possibility of hitting it.
4: But such a feat is impossible against Kawakami!
5: If we must reach out for a single ray of hope in this despairing situation, however,
then I suppose he's all we have...
6: Hiratsukaaa! Get over here!
7: Mu?!
8: Doesn't matter how much you talk!
9: Give it up, #10!
10-13: One more!

130)
1: Alright, go!
2: One more!
3: O...okay...
4: One more!
5: Let's see your fighting spirit, Hiratsuka!
6-7: One more!
8: Play!
9-11: One more!
12: Hiratsuka...
13-15: One more!

131)
1: What did you tell him, sensei?
2: Hm? ...oh...
3: Your chance to go out there and hit it seriously is exceedingly close to zero.
4: But there is one way to call a good ball.
5: A good ball?
6: A straight-on face ball isn't gonna come.
7: And if it doesn't come, then you just have to make one yourself.

132)
1: N...no way...
2: Whether you hit it or not, though, is up to you.

133)
1: Ahhh, so he really is gonna go hit it straight-on?!
2: He's nuts!
3: Uooohhhhhhhhh
4: We'll just have to bet everything else on your miracle swing!
