The team is practicing as usual on a hot, muggy day, when Tsubasa and Tomoe bring up the idea of participating in a summer tournament for high school girls' baseball teams. The girls' feelings on the idea of playing in an official tournament range from excited to nervous, but all are intrigued. They all happily decide to enter. Now all that's left is to be officially recognized as a club so they'll have the budget for it...
I thought this year's 
tournament was out of reach.
ظننتُ أنّ بطولة هذا العام بعيدة المنال
Ich dachte, das Turnier in diesem Jahr
wäre außer Reichweite.
Pensé que el torneo
de este año era imposible.
Pensé que el torneo
de este año era imposible.
J’ai cru que c’était fichu
pour le championnat.
Pensavo che il torneo di quest'anno 
fosse fuori dalla nostra portata.
Achei que o campeonato desse ano
estava fora de cogitação.
Подумала, что на этот турнир
 нам уже не попасть.
