Bottom of the 4th inning.
Wraar
Lead batter, Isashiki.
Beard-senpai, watch the ball closely.
SHUT UP.

Page 04

Seidou seems to have trouble hitting…
Yeah… Since the ball comes in low from high up.
BRING IT
A form that makes use of his 195cm height…
A small step width unusual for Japanese
A high barycentre

Page 05

With all that, the release point can be set even higher---
GAH

Page 06

The lower he aims…
The greater the angle and it’s slope---
Nice, Maki… // His movements are smooth and his arm swings good.
All that’s left---

Page 07

Is to finish with a curve---

Page 08

GAH

Page 09

Aww~~ So close!!
On the third line.
Don’t worry, Beard-senpai.
(Shuddap, bastard)
M- Maki’s curve was..
Hit perfectly…

Page 10

You don’t have to take on that guy seriously..
Aim completely low---

Page 11

A-
Again.. The curve…
THIRD
It… It’s so fast…

Page 12

IT WENT PAST~~~
Don’t tell me they were waiting for Maki’s curve---
A long hit along the left line.
Nice batting, leader!!
Nice two-base!!

Page 13

Their batted balls are gradually getting sharper.
I’ll definitely stop it with my body.

Page 14

Wha… With that build!?
Kuh…
Aw~~ He didn’t make it!
With the unexpected safety hit from number 5, Masuko,
1 out and runner on first and third.

Page 15

No need to get hasty, guys…
Stirring up things a bit is only natural.
Let’s get back into spirit!
S- Sorry!
Go, Miyuki!!
Hit it to a nice spot, man!

Page 16

Aw…
!
The Sensen Battery won’t take him on.
They chose to walk him, now with all bases filled.

Page 17

…
Ball Four!!
Now it’s 1 out and all bases loaded!

Page 18

He… looked like he was up for it though…
Nice intentional walk, Miyuki Kazuya.
I’m not happy!
Don’t be sulky, Maki…
This is a team choice.
“It would be better to get hit than to intentionally walk”
Such competitive spirit is important for a pitcher,
But…Baseball is a sports of chances.
And you avoid facing better that are likely to hit at all cost…

Page 19

The curve raised up really high.
A left fly. The distance is good.
Wraar
I managed to pull of the minimum task.
The third runner is ready to tag up.

Page 20

GO---!!
OOOONUMAAA
YAGI!!

Page 21

TAG OUT---!!

Page 22

A perfect relay play from Sensen Academy.
YEAH!
Hell yeah---!!
From the great chance of 1 out and bases loaded, // Seidou High fails to score!!
Reliably taking outs that the data pointed out.
In the end, this kind of playing is the strongest.
