Fuwah
....!!

Page 03

....Hah...
Kahahaha
What a swing!!
He also reeks of money.
We were lucky it went into the glove.
The other one we have to be careful about in their batting order is----
their number 6, that catcher. [kinda misleading if Miyuki isn't in the panel-.-]

Page 05

It went over!!
Two runs giving them the lead!!
...
Nice batting, Masuko-senpai!!
Hell yeah~ Masuko~~
Masuko!
Masuko, hell yeah~
Such much for seniority respect, Sawamura-chan..
He made a compact swing.
Yeah... With that swing, he can even hit a breaking ball.

Page 06

Everyone's so fired up!
I gotta be part of it too---
Miyuki as always.
H- Hey, Miyuki!!
(Argh, now I did it...)
Why are you going for a big hit when there's no runner!!
They sure turned the table on them.
Seidou clearly has the momentum...
...

Page 07

U.. Uwa...
What's with this pitch...

Page 08

Is he really a freshman...
He is. (He acts like a senior though.)
Bring it on!
I'll definitely hit that straight!!
We don't need to worry about them going after the high pitch now...
Could it be, they changed their plan
to match the build of the batter?

Page 09

Akikawa invented a way to crush this pitcher.
Exhausting by pitch count... We'll make use of this without mercy.
He's more stubborn than he looks....
What a troublesome old man.
Then---

Page 10

The set position...
Even though there aren't any runners!?
Eh!?

Page 11

Quick...

Page 12

Strike!!
Wha...
A low straight...
So he can pitch low after all! // When did he...
What are you even here for?
So they abandoned power and prioritized control.
That catcher sure makes quick calls...
Nice ball!

Page 13

But that call...
might become lethal against our batting line-up.
Bastard....
You think I can't hit that!?
Don't be afraid of getting your pitches hit...
What's needed for this pitching method is
Courage---

Page 14

Courage to believe in those behind your back.
Don't get cocky, freshman!!

Page 15

Furuya, base cov---

Page 16

Furuya!
(Got it!)

Page 17

YEAAAAH
Tetsu-san~~!!
Nice play!!
Nice cover, Furuya!!
He didn't forget about it. (Nice)
First time, he pulled it off in a real game, isn't it?
Right, kill them all of one by one!!
...!!

Page 18

W- Well, I have no choice but to congratulate that one.
Nice play!!
I'm gonna kill ya!!
He moved like practiced!
He reacted faster than I could tell him...
You have started to grow---
Furuya~!!
Nice play!!

Page 19

Experience you can only gain during a real match.
Having pitched as the starter for four games as a freshman sure is paying off now.
Don't falter!
Throw already!!
...Heh.
Being able to pull off a play of this level is only to be expected...
He still has too many things that he lacks as a pitcher...

Page 20

Ok! Nice ball!!
Seems like you got the hang of it!!
*ball missing glove*
Not bad...
And he's still just a freshman.
Seems like we can only break his spirit now...
When Raichi gets his second turn---
I want... some meat...
